One of the greatest privileges I’ve had in Congress was serving alongside Congressman John Lewis. I keep a photo in my office from the day my wife Janine and I walked across the Edmund Pettus Bridge with John in 2019. It was a moment neither of us will ever forget.

President Trump has shown no willingness to fire Kristi Noem. That leaves Congress with no choice but to act. That is why I am cosponsoring articles of impeachment against Secretary Noem.
Bera Signs Articles of Impeachment Against DHS Secretary Kristi Noem

“Under Secretary Noem’s watch, we have witnessed federal agents carry out warrantless raids, detain U.S. citizens without cause, and use deadly force unjustifiably on the streets of American cities. 

Rather than take responsibility and pursue accountability, Secretary Noem has repeatedly lied to the American people and obstructed comprehensive and transparent investigations from taking place. 

President Trump has shown no willingness to fire Secretary Noem. That leaves Congress with no choice but to act. That is why I am cosponsoring articles of impeachment against Secretary Noem.

The Department of Homeland Security was created to keep Americans safe. Secretary Noem has turned it into an agency that millions now fear. We must restore leadership at DHS that respects the Constitution, due process, and the rule of law.”

You should never have to choose between putting food on your table, covering your rent, and paying your health insurance premium. But for more than 20 million Americans, that already difficult decision will become even harder if Affordable Care Act subsidies are allowed to expire.

Affordability is not a hoax. It’s something American families deal with every day from putting food on the table to paying the rent to deciding whether they can afford health insurance. This is a crisis and Donald Trump is making a joke out of it.

24 million Americans — including 28,000 right here in our district — would see their health care premiums skyrocket if Republicans let Affordable Care Act subsidies expire. I’m fighting to extend these subsidies to protect access to affordable, quality health care for Sacramento County families.
If Republicans let health care tax credits expire, 28,000 people in California's 6th District will see the cost of health coverage soar.

As a doctor, I've seen firsthand what happens when people lose access to health care. Patients skip checkups and go without medications. Chronic conditions worsen, small problems turn into major health crises, and preventable illnesses become emergencies.

The recommendations from RFK Jr.'s hand-picked vaccine panel should not be treated as legitimate.
It is alarming to see what ACIP — once the gold standard on vaccines — has become under RFK Jr.’s leadership. 

The committee is now undermining decades of public health progress and putting lives at risk. Its recommendations should not be treated as legitimate.

The science behind vaccines is settled. That hasn’t changed since January 20th. What has changed is that RFK Jr.’s hand-picked vaccine skeptics are now controlling the very body meant to protect our health.
