Congress is back in session. Here’s what I’m working on:

Congress was on recess all of AugustJohn,, but we officially started back in Washington again earlier this week. I thought it would be useful to list my priorities for this session, because you deserve accountability and transparency into what I’m working on. Assault Weapons Ban – I int…

Let’s talk about the ongoing redistricting fight. The Republican-held Texas legislature passed new maps that would give Texas FIVE more Republican seats. California led the charge on redrawing their maps to favor Democrats and mitigate the losses from the Texas maps. Now, Trump is sayin…
