In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“Whether it's seniors on fixed incomes or working families, too many Angelenos are struggling to keep a roof over their heads. Addressing the housing crisis takes more than just a whole-of-government approach-it demands close collaboration with community partners to pinpoint areas of need and deliver real solutions. I was proud to convene federal and local leaders to help ensure Los Angeles can turn the opportunities created by the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act into shovels in the ground and more affordable homes.”
“Americans do not want to see their tax dollars thrown at another endless war, they want to see them invested back into their pockets and communities. This America Last budget once again proves how out-of-touch Republicans are with the needs of their constituents. Democrats will keep fighting to bring down costs and make life easier for hard-working families.”
“Gas is still $6 per gallon in California. The cost of groceries continues to rise. Eight million Americans have lost health care because of Republican cuts. An estimated $100 billion has already been spent on Trump's war of choice with Iran. Now Republicans want to give Trump and Hegseth more money for a botched war that is making life more expensive? It's a hell no from me.”
