Great conversation on our telephone town hall about protecting Social Security and Medicare, lowering taxes and more.
Thank you to the 4500+ CA-40 callers who joined. I’m so grateful to be your voice in Congress and fighting every day to preserve the American dream.
Nearly 2 out of every 3 Americans is living paycheck to paycheck, and in California, everything is more expensive.
That's why I'm working to bring common sense to Congress and make life affordable by combatting reckless spending and lowering taxes.
I just returned from a bipartisan Congressional delegation trip to the Indo-Pacific, led by House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul.
As Chairwoman of the Indo-Pacific Subcommittee, it was important that my first trip to Asia in this role included visits to our closest allies and partners in the region: Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. Read my full thoughts in the Orange County Register on the need to address backlogged arms sales to Taiwan.
I caught up with Chino Valley Fire District Chief Dave Williams about his team's proactive fire management activities, search and rescue efforts, high performance CPR program, and plans for future growth.
Grateful for our firefighters' dedicated work to keep our Chino Hills community safe!
We must say no to Uyghur genocide and the CCP’s repeated disinformation, coercion, and abuse.
The Uyghur Policy Act equips the U.S. with tools needed to support the basic human rights and distinct identities of Uyghurs and other ethnic minorities in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region subject to the CCP’s inhumane treatment. I will continue to firmly push back against the CCP’s abuses and support human rights and freedom around the world.
As a mom to three Titan grads, California State University, Fullerton always has a special place in my heart and I have seen firsthand that Titans reach higher.
I loved seeing President Virjee and the CSUF team in my office today to hear more about their priorities and our work on the Titan Gateway.
STEM opportunities provide good-paying jobs, support local economies and boost U.S. global competitiveness.
Last year's Congressional App Challenge was the largest yet with nearly 10,000 students. Honored to speak to the winners, including Diya from Troy High School, at House of Code!
Orange County has a population higher than more than 20 states and the 2nd largest workforce in California. I talked with the Orange County Business Council about innovation taking place in Orange County and workforce challenges.
I look forward to working together to keep our local communities strong.
Great to see so many familiar faces in DC with Association of California Cities, Orange County!
I look forward to working together to help make life more affordable and ensure our Orange County communities remain prosperous and safe.
I met with Railbookers Group President Frank Marini from Aliso Viejo and Los Angeles Tourism and Convention Board President and CEO Adam Burke from Foothill Ranch in town with US Travel to talk about how to promote tourism across Southern California.
We discussed how we can reduce hardships, wait times and stress that comes with traveling. Thank you for stopping by my office!
The importance of the Indian Ocean region as we counter the People’s Republic of China cannot be overstated.
In this week’s Indo-Pacific Subcommittee hearing I asked about how successful PRC initiatives have been in the region.
Caltech brings together some of our world's brightest minds and conducts groundbreaking research and discovery programs, managing NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory and more.
Great to meet with President Thomas Rosenbaum to learn more about their work.
Mission Viejo’s Little France Coffee and Bakery was ranked #13 on Yelp's Top 100 restaurants in the U.S.
I stopped by to congratulate them and enjoy some delicious food! Our small businesses are the engine of our economy and I'm honored to represent so many dynamic small businesses in CA-40.
We are the land of the free because of the brave men and women who answer the call to serve. I caught up with military recruiters in Mission Viejo to learn what they're seeing on the ground, and I heard from a few young adults who were there to enlist.
We are grateful!
So fun to join the first-ever Duke of Orange competition hosted by the Orange Chamber at the Orange Women's Club in Orange.
Congratulations to JC Cortez of Orange Elks Lodge #1475 on being crowned the Duke of Orange and thank you for all who competed for the title.
The Yorba Linda’s Adventure Playground is open!
I’m so glad that this Yorba Linda landmark is back for children to play and the public to enjoy with new amenities, including a play structure, splash pad, waterslide, zipline, wiffleball field, fort building area, covered shelter and onsite restrooms.
Thank you to Tustin Police Department Chief Stu Greenberg and team for showing me around headquarters and updating me on concerns in the community and how effective their training is in keeping Tustin residents safe.
I am proud to represent Tustin in Congress!
The Philippines is a critical ally of the United States.
I met with a Philippine House delegation led by Speaker Ferdinand Martin G. Romualdez and Ambassador H.E. Jose Manuel G. Romualdez, and look forward to strengthening our economic and security partnership as Indo-Pacific Subcommittee Chair.
Vladimir Putin is a thug and his regime is responsible for tens of thousands of war crimes and sexual assault cases against Ukrainians.
I will keep demanding accountability.
