  • I’m relieved that no one was hurt and there’s no active threat to the Islamic Center of San Diego. But we urgently have to address the anti-Muslim and anti-Islam hatred brewing in our community and across the U.S. Everyone, no matter their faith, should be able to live in peace.

  • I am relieved by the agreement to end the war in Iran, but we also need to remember how we got here. Donald Trump pulled the U.S. out of the Iran nuclear deal in 2018 and then started this unnecessary, costly, and deadly war of choice.

  • On the 14th anniversary of DACA, the program is under siege. USCIS is intentionally delaying the process and failing to process renewals so folks have lost their jobs while waiting in limbo. They deserve stability and pathways to citizenship.

  • The leader of Tren de Aragua was responsible for human and drug trafficking and horrific violence. He should have been held accountable in a court of law, not in a rogue display of bravado. Ignoring these rules makes them less effective at protecting us.

  • The Trump Administration is continuing to sink to new lows – deporting people to countries where they have no ties, support, or protections. They just sent two dozen people to the Central African Republic, where they’re likely to face human rights abuses.
