    I’m a strong supporter of the Los Angeles Air Force Base in El Segundo, which serves families across the South Bay and is the only full-service military base in greater Los Angeles. Thank you to the talented men & women at LAAFB who work on behalf of veterans in our community!

    In addition to our annual celebrations, I regularly honor the distinguished service of veterans in my district, as well as the legacy of heroes such as the Tuskegee Airmen – the 1st African-American military aviators in the U.S. Armed Forces.

    Today I salute all of the courageous veterans & servicemembers across the country. It is my honor to serve in Congress & ensure that programs, such as the VA’s Center for Women Veterans which I created in 1994, meet the needs of those who have served & sacrificed in the military.

    In the final analysis, lies, fear mongering, and deceit can never win. The American people will reject Trump's disgraceful leadership. The truth will prevail and the American people will win.

    If you're told that your name is not present at the polling place, demand a provisional ballot. You cannot be denied the right to vote on a provisional ballot.

    Trump & his allies at Fox News & in Congress have overplayed their hands. Trump has clearly defined himself by stoking fear & anger w/ racism, lies, & accusations to win at any cost. It won't work. The American people understand how dangerous Trump is & will reject him today.

    It is true that this today is the most important election of our lifetime. The phenomenal early voting numbers are because of young, first time voters. Millennials are going to move our country forward.

    Republicans claim to support seniors. They claim to support veterans. They claim to support small businesses and families, but they never hesitate or miss an opportunity to screw over the American people. Leave our seniors' , , & alone!

    McConnell, if you think you're going to get away with taking from seniors after you have given to the rich, you have another thing coming. We will not allow you to touch , , or to make up for your wild tax cuts for corporations & the rich.

    Repubs claim to be fiscal conservatives, but their tax scam will add $1.9T to the natl. debt, & now they want to pay down the deficit on the backs of seniors & families. Repubs are fiscally conservative only when Ds are in power. When they're in power, they spend like no tomorrow

    So-called Ed Sec DeVos should have been rejected by the Senate after it was revealed that she made millions by investing in companies that profit off the backs of students. Thankfully, the federal courts are picking up Senate Republicans’ slack.

    It should shock no one that is aligned with for-profit colleges that rip-off students. His own fraudulent school, Trump U, had to pay millions of $ to the students he cheated. Justice is finally being served.
