One month ago, President Trump took the oath of office. Since taking office, I believe his dangerous, incompetent policies and actions have jeopardized our national security, our economy, and our values.

It seems to me, every day the American people see new evidence of the financial, personal, and political grip the Russians have on the President.

The resignation of National Security Advisor Michael Flynn for undisclosed communications with the Russians and revelations that the campaign team was in constant contact with Russian intelligence agents, in my opinion reflect the dangerous, incompetent conduct of this administration.

In my view, these events show that the president's weakness before Russia, along with the unconstitutional refugee and Muslim ban and the cruel new ICE raids on families are all a part of a failing vision for America.

Hard-working families and our democracy demand better.  That’s why we are fighting for all.

Where are the Jobs?

Rather than create good-paying jobs and focus on protecting our national security, I feel the President has squandered his first 30 days in office by enacting policies that put Putin and Wall Street first.

While doubling down on a plan to waste billions of taxpayer dollars on a border wall that Mexico will never pay for, in contrast House Democrats are fighting for comprehensive immigration reform that protects all families.

It is my belief that President Trump is threatening San Francisco and other cities that refuse to force local police to do immigration agents’ jobs. Meanwhile, we will continue to honor the highest ideals of our nation by pressing for the withdrawal of the ban.

In my view, instead of championing health coverage for all Americans, the President and the House Republican leadership's agenda is threatening the health security of millions of Americans, and attacking a woman’s right to make her own reproductive health decisions. 

As San Franciscans, we know that the beauty is in the mix and we know that our diversity makes us stronger. House Democrats pledge to stay vigilant and fight for all Americans.  

My staff and an army of volunteer attorneys were on the ground at SFO finding ways to assist constituents returning home from abroad, who were affected by the President’s recent executive order that banned travel to the United States by lawful permanent residents, refugees, and other valid visa holders from Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen.  In one particular case, a team of volunteer immigration attorneys at the airport and my staff worked with my constituent’s family to relay information to my constituent while inflight to prepare her for going through Customs.  After 3 hours at Customs, she was finally cleared and is now happily at home and reunited with her family.
