My Fellowship and Traineeships for Early-Career AI Researchers Act will help grow our STEM workforce by providing grants for graduate-level research in AI. The U.S. currently lags other countries such as China in producing highly-skilled computer scientists.
I was thrilled to see my first two pieces of legislation pass the House of Representatives last night as part of larger packages to strengthen our computer science workforce and bolster critical R&D programs. Learn more about the bills here: https://t.co/yRhx1hq9OK

One of the key goals of my Congressional office is to address issues #CA08 constituents face with the federal govt. If you need help with the VA, Social Security, USPS, or another federal entity, visit my website to learn more about how I can help you: https://t.co/qdSwXYkT1V
I look forward to continuing to bolster partnerships between the federal government and our local law enforcement to solve this problem and ensure safety in our #CA08 communities.
I recently partnered with Rep. Garcia to request @DEA take action like this alongside our federal law enforcement to get Southern California's dangerous illegal marijuana grow problem in check. This raid today is a major victory in that fight. QT @BillFOXLA: NEW: We’re embedded w/ @LASDHQ as the department conducts the largest operation in its history. Up to 500 deputies… https://t.co/QcAthIP9Y4)
RT @sbcountysheriff: Sergeant Vaca served 17 years with the Department and was a sergeant at the Morongo Basin Station. https://t.co/smaMdADwMH
For 50 yrs our fed govt has consistently spent more than it collects – a habit @USCBO warned is economically unsustainable, esp. if Congress continues down its path of reckless spending. We must balance our budget to avoid passing a crushing legacy of debt to future generations. https://t.co/RvVopJ59YQ
Medal of Honor recipients have served far beyond the call of duty and their valor is worthy of the highest respect. I am proud to recognize those heroes today and every day. #NationalMedalfHonorDay2021 https://t.co/bhhEbLZxnG
This fraud has serious implications for all American taxpayers, and dangerous impacts for Californians whose personal information has been stolen by criminals seeking to collect COVID-related unemployment assistance with their identities. https://t.co/NseN9UyoRN
I joined @GOPLeader, @RepSteel, @RepYoungKim, @RepValadao and others last week to demand answers in response to confirmation that @CA_EDD has paid out over $11b in fraudulent unemployment claims. This level of mismanagement of taxpayer dollars is completely unacceptable. https://t.co/8exyfBaS5k
I appreciate @PresElectBiden’s efforts to help our nation recover, but there are a lot of changes to make before this plan will work for #CA08 and the country.
Furthermore, his plan will raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour across our country – this policy hasn’t worked in #CA where businesses of all sizes are fleeing the state for greener pastures with lower costs of living and more reasonable business regulations.
I appreciate @PresElectBiden’s efforts to help our nation recover. However, many changes must be made before this plan will work for #CA08 and our country.
Furthermore, this plan will raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour across our country even though most economists agree doing so would reduce access to entry-level jobs and diminish economic mobility.
It also concentrates dollars to state and local governments when many states have demonstrated irresponsibility in spending previous funding. For example @CA_ED sent checks to convicts both in and out of state while legitimate requests were stuck waiting in line.
The firefighter who tragically lost his life fighting the El Dorado Fire was honored by the community and his fellow firefighters yesterday. I’m deeply saddened by this loss and my condolences are with his family & the firefighting community. https://t.co/DkIzfr4N2Y
