Don't take our progress for granted

NationBuilder Friend, If you’ve ever had a job, it’s hard to imagine life without weekends -- or without laws that prohibit young children from working, mandate safe working conditions, and ensure that every worker gets paid a minimum wage. So much of what we take for granted in t…

There's no place like home

NationBuilder Friend,Every year, Congress breaks for the month of August. And every year, August flies by way too fast. It felt great coming home to my constituents in California, but soon I’ll be back in Washington, where I’ll need to be ready to stand up to Trump and his enabler…

Don’t be like Ted

NationBuilder Friend,It’s no secret that Rep. Lieu gets along with some of his Republican colleagues better than others. But there’s one GOP Senator whom he really can’t stand -- and unfortunately, they share the same name. Don’t be like Ted Cruz: Instead, help defend our democrac…

Most. Corrupt. Cabinet. Ever.

NationBuilder Friend,Last month, former Labor Secretary Alex Acosta became the 9th cabinet member to resign or be fired from the Trump Administration. Considering there are only 15 cabinet posts that’s pretty bad. But the explanation is simple: Right now, we’re dealing with the Mo…
