The data is in & the time is now to modernize work culture for the better. I'm reintroducing the 32-Hour Workweek Act to allow workers to begin reclaiming their time, and their lives, with no loss of pay.

I was in Riverside this weekend, and I wanted to know: Should influencers have to tell you if politicians are paying them?

This is a welcome blow to Donald Trump's mass deportation machine and a reminder that we are not powerless to stand up to his cruelty. I am grateful to the federal judge for upholding the rule of law and recognizing that the criminal charges against Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia were vindictive and wrong. Kilmar is here in the U.S. legally and I’m heartened for him and his family that he will remain a free man. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/k…

I have long called for ICE’s Adelanto detention facility to be closed because of chronic failures to treat the individuals imprisoned there with basic dignity. During my latest visit to the facility just a few weeks ago, I again heard stories from innocent immigrants who had endured tremendously difficult circumstances. I was particularly concerned by inattentive and even negligent care. There are serious questions about detainees’ access to timely medical care and medical records. This hunger strike is just further proof that ICE cannot provide basic services and needs to close Adelanto. The failures at this facility are part of a broader pattern from ICE and CBP to dehumanize immigrants and terrorize our communities, which is why I am firmly opposed to any new funding until we see real accountability and reforms. latimes.com/california/sto…
