Rep. Panetta urges Congress to address military food insecurity With a proposed defense budget of nearly $900 billion in fiscal year 2026, ensuring servicemembers and their families have reliable access to healthy meals should be both feasible and a top priorit…

It’s unacceptable that there are any servicemembers experiencing food insecurity. I’m pushing Congress to take concrete action to address military hunger in this year’s NDAA because it is our duty to take care of the men and women who sacrifice so much to serve their country.

Santa Cruz Metro awarded $1.1 million to improve paratransit services Metro’s Paratransit Vehicle Replacement Project will benefit from $1.1 million provided through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, passed in 2021.

I am proud to work with @RepZoeLofgren to secure $1.1M in federal funding for new Paratransit vehicles for Santa Cruz County. This funding will reduce public transportation operating costs, improve service and continue to meet the needs of residents across the county.

Tell Congress: Support discharge petition to force vote on ACA tax credits Contact Congress today!

Mike Johnson, whose claim to fame is a ridiculous selfie with Kid Rock, is furious that we’re pushing to force a vote on extending tax credits. You know what to do:

So, Hegseth illegally ordered everyone killed in the first alleged drug boat strike on Sept. 2, prompting a second hit to finish off survivors in the water. — This is the real reason why Trump & Hegseth absolutely freaked out about the video against illegal orders.

The prosecutor appointed to replace Fani Willis in Georgia moved to dismiss the election fraud conspiracy case against Trump & others. Judge McAfee just granted that motion. Case over.
