This week I supported the Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Act, which funds critical military construction, family housing, and quality of life improvements for our servicemembers and their families. This bill also strengthens support for veterans by funding the health care, benefits, education assistance, home loans, and other services they've earned through their service. I was also proud to support important infrastructure improvements at Edwards Air Force Base and advance efforts focused on reducing the burden of chronic liver disease among veterans.

General Atomics is driving innovation that strengthens our military and creates high quality jobs right here in the High Desert. It was inspiring to visit their Adelanto facility and see firsthand how advanced technology and manufacturing are both supporting our national security and growing our local economy.

Metastatic breast cancer impacts thousands of families across our country, and patients deserve access to the care and treatment they need. I am proud to cosponsor the Metastatic Breast Cancer Access to Care Act and grateful to stand along survivors like Lori who inspire so many with their strength and courage!

I was honored to join Fire Chief Peratt and the Apple Valley Fire Protection District in celebrating 75 years of service to our community! Thank you to all the firefighters and first responders who have dedicated themselves to protecting and serving the High Desert for generations.

I appreciated visiting the Apple Valley San Bernardino County Sheriff’s patrol station with Captain Visosky, Mayor Nassif, and Councilwoman Leon. It was valuable to meet with local law enforcement, tour the facility, and discuss the work being done to keep our community safe. I am grateful for the men and women in uniform who serve with professionalism, courage, and dedication every single day!

During National Police Week, we honor the brave men and women of law enforcement who put their lives on the line to keep our community safe. We also remember the officers who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty and pray for their families. https://t.co/tMyaVPMTku

California failed to repay its COVID-era unemployment debt, and now small businesses are being forced to pay nearly 9 times as much in tax as businesses in other states. Every other state repaid its loan, but Sacramento’s mismanagement is once again falling on the backs of job creators. https://t.co/LmMWBp0Gri
