These are major problems that will impact every individual and family in our district, whether through further inflation and increased prices at the grocery store or through diminished safety on our streets. https://t.co/YVsuvTgXal

Communities across the country will feel the effects of California's poor planning in water storage this summer with potential shortages of fruits, vegetables and nuts brought on by California's drought conditions and the global supply chain crisis.
Today on #NationalAGDay, I thank all of the farmers and ranchers who produce our nation’s food. Please join me in celebrating our farmers and ranchers in appreciation for their service to our community. https://t.co/Lpq0RdURb4
RT @SoCal_RedCross: San Bernardino County Animal Care is assisting those in need of help evacuating animals in mandatory evacuation areas.<U+2026>
More than half of the country's fruits, nuts, and vegetables are grown here in California. That production can't occur without reliable water, and the prices we pay for these vital foods will increase even further as supplies diminish.
It was a pleasure to meet with representatives from the California Association of Resource Conservation Districts to discuss their important work in active forest management, soil health, and water security. Resource Conservation Districts play a critical role in supporting wildfire resilience and strengthening California’s agricultural economy, and I appreciate their continued partnership and the work being done across California’s 23rd District.
This week, I questioned witnesses at a hearing on food safety, focusing on how we can ensure safe, reliable food for every American. A patchwork of different state labeling rules creates confusion for consumers and challenges for producers across state lines. We need clear, science-based standards and better coordination to keep families safe.
I was pleased to vote in favor of the 2026 Farm Bill when it passed the House this week. This legislation delivers critical support for farmers, ranchers, and rural communities across our country while also strengthening agricultural innovation. In addition, it helps ensure a stable, affordable food supply for families while supporting the long-term resilience of American agriculture.
I’m encouraged to see $540 million in new investments coming to California through the Bureau of Reclamation as part of H.R., passed earlier this Congress. These upgrades to key systems such as the Friant-Kern Canal and Delta-Mendota Canal will help move water more efficiently across our state, including to regions like ours that depend on it most. Expanding storage capacity and modernizing aging infrastructure will strengthen drought resilience and help ensure that families, farmers, and small businesses in the High Desert have access to reliable water for years to come.
