We need to end this new ICE surge in San Diego, but more than that, we need to get ICE out of our communities. Their tactics are traumatizing our kids and ripping families apart.

I’ve spoken directly with the FBI and military leadership: there is no increased threat to San Diego. You are safe. But what Donald Trump said last night was dangerous. This illegal war needs to end.

Armed Services YMCA San Diego provides affordable child care for our military families. I’m proud to have secured $2 million in federal funding to support their services and will keep fighting to make sure all of our service members have access to high-quality child care.

I had so much fun meeting these students at Mason Elementary School in Mira Mesa and answering their questions about Congress. (And in case you couldn’t tell – yes, it was Pajama Day!)

It was my honor to congratulate the HOPE Leadership Institute’s 2026 graduating class! These graduates are part of a new generation of Latina advocates and civic leaders in California. Can’t wait to see what they’ll accomplish!

Yesterday, I joined a bipartisan Congressional delegation to conduct in-person oversight of the USS Abraham Lincoln, which is currently en route to its home port of San Diego. I spoke directly with sailors, Marines, and leadership aboard the ship. Here’s what I learned. 🧵

Jake Katz founded CareCrewSD as a junior in high school (at my alma mater, Torrey Pines!) to help unhoused and underserved youth in San Diego. He’s done so much to mobilize other students to get involved in our community and I’m proud to honor him as a CA-51 Outstanding Youth!

It was great to join the annual I Love a Clean San Diego Coastal Cleanup Day at Rancho Mission Canyon. I love to see our community working together to make the local environment cleaner!

I had so much fun attending the Adams Avenue Street Fair over the weekend! It was great to see so many folks out enjoying the live music, rides, and local vendors.

It was so great to visit these students at Bancroft Elementary School in Spring Valley! I got to make friends with the TK and Kindergarteners and hosted a mini town hall with the 5th graders, who asked so many smart questions about our government.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 20/09/2026

I visited the new San Diego Family Justice Center, also called Your Safe Place, which provides comprehensive support services to survivors of domestic violence, abuse, and gun violence – including help filing restraining orders to remove firearms from dangerous abusers.

September is National Hunger Awareness Month. Too many of our neighbors are facing food insecurity, especially after Trump and Republicans in Congress cut food assistance programs. I’m proud to support partners like the San Diego Food Bank to help feed our community.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 16/09/2026

Speaker Mike Johnson and House Republicans are cowards. Secretary Pete Hegseth should be impeached for his role in waging the reckless, deadly, and illegal war in Iran and Congress should be here to do our jobs.

I was grateful to see so many people come together in El Cajon today to honor the lives lost on 9/11. In the wake of that horrific day, I still remember how Americans responded with selflessness, bravery, compassion, and solidarity. In the darkest times, community is the answer.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 11/09/2026

Last weekend, I joined the San Diego Fire Department's annual 9/11 memorial stair climb to honor the more than 400 emergency responders who sacrificed their lives that day to save others. Our firefighters are heroes.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 11/09/2026

Today, I joined USD's annual 9/11 remembrance event with interfaith community members, first responders, and USD students, faculty, and staff to honor the victims of the attacks. May the next 25 years give us all more reasons to gather in hope and solidarity than in grief.

We don’t have time to wait. The massive threats posed by AI are here and now, and Congress needs to act.

I joined the East County Chamber of Commerce for their annual Dine and Dialogue to meet with local business leaders and share what I’m doing in Congress to lower costs, support small businesses, and deliver for our community!

It was great to meet with PATH, which provides critical support services for our unhoused neighbors in San Diego and develops housing that’s affordable across California. In Congress, I’m fighting hard for more federal funding to support work like theirs.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 04/09/2026

Grossmont Child Care Center is one of many great child care and early education facilities in our community that are funded by Head Start. Trump has continuously attacked Head Start, even threatening to zero it out, but I won’t stop fighting to protect this program. These kids deserve it.

It was great to join Park Ranger Elias and the Friends of Ruffin Canyon for a clean up of the Taft native plant garden in Serra Mesa. We cleaned up trash and pulled up some invasive species in order to protect the native ecosystem!

I had so much fun playing with the Lemon Grove Pickleball Club last weekend! This group meets at the Rec Center every Saturday morning. It was such a great way to unwind, decompress, and meet some new people in our community!

I joined Rep. Scott Peters for a listening session with the disability community in San Diego to hear more about the barriers disabled people face in housing, transportation, and employment and to discuss solutions to make our society accessible for everyone.

The cost of living is the number one thing I hear from San Diegans. I held a town hall with the San Diego Housing Federation to talk about what I’m doing in Congress to fight for bigger, transformational changes and lower the cost of housing for good – for everyone.

I recently toured Element Bioscience’s HQ, located in my district, and met with their team. I’m proud to support federal investment in biotechnology research, which supports critical jobs in San Diego and drives innovation that can improve people’s health and lives.

For nearly 30 years, the Interfaith Shelter Network has operated the El Nido Transitional Housing Program for women and children escaping domestic violence in San Diego. It was great to meet with some of the people that make this critical work possible.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 21/08/2026

Had a great discussion at the recent Normal Heights Community Planning Group meeting about the urgent need to end Trump's Iran War, how the 21st Century Road to Housing Act will lower housing costs in San Diego, and what Democrats will do when we take back the House.

After the shooting at the Islamic Center of San Diego, her childhood mosque, Sarah Abdin raised funds to make Eid goodie bags for every elementary student there. I’m so inspired by her generosity and proud to name her as an #OutstandingYouth in our community.

I had so much fun at Bayside Community Center’s 4th annual Bocce Ball Tournament! I’m definitely a novice (even though this was my second year competing) so big thanks to everyone who welcomed me to their team!

It was so fun to watch high schoolers at Ocean Discovery practice their presentations about water booms, water pollution, and how Ocean Discovery has helped them find their passion. They all did great!

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 09/08/2026

The entire military family – including kids and teens – serve and sacrifice. I was glad to join the National Military Family Association for the release of their annual report about what military teens are going through and how we can better support them.

I’m so grateful for organizations like @promises2kids that support current and former foster youth in San Diego County and help them grow into thriving adults.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 24/07/2026

It was great to join Alex Noyes and Dafna Rand from the Brookings Institution to talk about how we can build an incentive-based U.S. security assistance system that promotes transparency, accountability, and oversight, strengthens our partnerships, and protects our reputation.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 23/07/2026

It was so fun to join my neighbors to take care of our own neighborhood! The Kensington-Talmadge Litter Pickers volunteer their Sundays once a month to clean up trash along major roads in our community.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 23/07/2026

Today, the House passed another war powers resolution to stop Trump’s war in Iran. Senate Republicans voted it down. But the message from the American people is clear: end the war.

Had so much fun at the Serra Mesa Big Block Party! It was great to see so many folks out enjoying the music, local vendors, and the amazing car show.

I visited UCSD’s Supercomputer Center to learn more about how they’re using advanced computing and AI to tackle real-world challenges, including supporting wildfire response and advancing health care research. It’s critical that we harness AI to help people, not just a few tech companies.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 20/07/2026

I met with the Karen Organization of San Diego – which serves families of Burmese descent – and met kids in their summer camp! We also visited PANA's Global Marketplace, which supports refugee-owned businesses like Doh Doh Coffee, the first Karen-owned coffee shop in San Diego.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 20/07/2026

Gun violence has shattered so many communities across this country – including ours, in San Diego. I’m grateful to be working alongside folks like the Alliance to End Gun Violence to end this epidemic and protect future generations from this unnecessary trauma.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 17/07/2026

I had a great time meeting these kids at John Muir Language Academy’s PrimeTime Summer Enrichment Program! Free summer school programs like this are so important for strengthening kids’ academic and social-emotional skills while their parents are at work.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 16/07/2026

Last week, I helped pack backpacks with school supplies with Home Start, a local non-profit focused on helping kids grow up in safe and stable homes across San Diego County. Every kid deserves to have everything they need to thrive in school and beyond.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 16/07/2026

Proud to visit Stepping Stone, which specializes in LGBTQ+-affirming treatment for substance use disorder, mental health services, and transitional housing. When it was founded in 1976, most treatment programs turned away LGBTQ+ people or asked them to closet themselves.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 14/07/2026

It was great to meet with Arts Education Connection. Every kid (and everyone!) deserves access to the arts because it shapes how they learn, grow, and see the world.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 14/07/2026

I loved meeting with some of the students and leaders from First Gen Scholars–an amazing organization that’s breaking down financial barriers so first-gen students can go to college debt-free. Investing in the next generation starts with making higher education accessible to all.

I enjoyed the tour at AtmoSense and learning about their work to build cutting-edge gas-sensing technology to keep our air, workplaces, and communities safer.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 12/07/2026

Federal funding makes breakthroughs possible. That’s why the Trump Admin’s reckless NIH and NSF grant cuts hit research institutions like Scripps Institute of Oceanography so hard. I met with fellows and grad students there to hear more about how these cuts have hurt their work.

It was great to tour AiCella & Invetech and see how they’re using AI to make lifesaving cell therapies faster, cheaper, and made in San Diego! This is what American biomanufacturing and responsible use of AI can look like.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs @sarajacobs.house.gov · 12/07/2026

I’m so grateful for Element Q, a place built by and for the LGBTQ+ community, where people can get identity-affirming mental health care and heal, grow, and thrive.
