California v. Trump

Team,    As the son of immigrants — construction and clerical workers — I know firsthand that California offers the chance to get ahead. The Golden State is home to unmatched opportunity and innovation that has pushed our nation forward.    But when President Trump was elected, Cali…

Our work continues, even as an impeachment inquiry begins

Team,   The President is not above the law. While a formal impeachment inquiry begins, we’re not waiting for Congress to hold the President accountable for his 60+ illegal decisions.   That’s why we just filed a new lawsuit against President Trump to block his rollback gutting the E…

Protecting access to birth control, abortion, and health centers

Team,   The President’s Title X gag rule is going into effect. And with that, healthcare for millions of women and families is at risk.   But we’re back in court this week to stop the President. We’re fighting because it’s unthinkable to return to the days when women were denied acce…

60 lawsuits

Team,    We just filed our 60th lawsuit against President Trump.   I’d rather work with the President of the United States than sue him. But at every turn, President Trump has chosen to attack our families, break the law, and we’ve been left with only one option — to fight back.   …

Trump just landed

Team,    Did you see Xavier's email about President Trump's visit to California?   Trump just landed Chip in $5 as we fight to stop Trump’s reckless Republican agenda.   While President Trump is busy fundraising with ultra-wealthy donors, Xavier is taking him to court — and…

Add your name, team: Hold Wall Street accountable

Team,    Over $110 billion. That's how much the six biggest banks made in profit last year.    This record profit doesn't excuse the fact that again and again, Wall Street is caught engaging in practices that hurt hardworking Americans. Xavier isn’t standing for it.    Add your na…

Sign your name: Stop Trump's attempt to weaken LGBTQ and women's healthcare

Our border wall case continues this week

Mexico didn't "pay for it"

Team,    First: Trump couldn’t get Mexico to “pay for it.”   Then: Congress didn’t fund it either, so the President declared an illegal “national emergency” to grab taxpayer dollars.   Now: We’re in court to stop President Trump's border wall for good.     We all know the wall’s …

Birth control rollback

Team,    The law couldn’t be more clear. Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, it’s illegal for insured women to be charged a copay for birth control.   The Trump administration is trying to change that. Next week, we’ll be back in court for a hearing to block the President's birth cont…
