@replsimon

It is my absolute pleasure to introduce you to Adan, our CA-12 App Challenge winner from Oakland! He gave me a demo of his winning app called "StayReady" and told me a bit about the process of building an app. Adan, I cannot wait to see all that you do, you have a bright future ahead of you!

More from Congresswoman Lateefah Simon

I opposed to a bill that directly targets churches, charities, and nonprofits that provide bail support to families navigating a deeply unequal justice system. Bail support was a cornerstone of the civil rights movement, allowing people to protest unjust laws without fear they'd be locked away.

It was wonderful to join Dr. Pineda & the Center for Independent Living in Berkeley to celebrate their 54th anniversary and be with so many leaders, activists, and mentors. The CIL's work and partnership has been invaluable for me as I continue the long fight for disability justice in Congress.

I am so proud to have secured over $11 MILLION in Community Project Funding for 15 projects across the East Bay. Mayor Barbara Lee and Council members Janani Ramachandran and Kevin Jenkins joined me in my office in D.C. to celebrate the 3 projects that the City of Oakland received funding for.

My heart is with the families and loved ones of Amin, Mansour, Nadir and the entire San Diego Muslim community. May Allah grant peace to their souls. We must use this moment to find a new way forward. We all have a responsibility to call out the normalization of islamaphobic rhetoric.

Ever wonder what your congresswoman does in a day? Spend a day with me in Washington, D.C. introducing legislation to protect workers and minority-owned small businesses, meeting with stakeholders, and attending a joint-session of Congress!

The last time the federal minimum wage was raised was 2009. For too long, our economy has relied on underpaying the very workers who keep this country running. That harm has fallen hardest on women, workers with disabilities, tipped workers, Black and brown workers, and working families.

Building communities where our babies, elders, families are safe is a top priority. That starts with resources, which is why I am so proud to present over $1 million in federal Community Project Funding to the City of Oakland's Department of Violence Prevention for Operation Ceasefire-Lifeline.

Happy Small Business Week, Oakland! More than 85% of all businesses are small businesses in the Town. Small businesses are not the exception - they *are* our economy. I was honored to join Mayor Lee & the City of Oakland's Economic and Workforce Development Department to celebrate small businesses.

We are on Day 77 of Trump's illegal and inhumane war. He is endangering the lives of civilians, shattering every global alliance we have built, and raising costs for Americans with a $29 billion dollar war. I will not support or give a dime to the President's senseless war in Iran.

$1 billion taxpayer dollars for Trump's ballroom. The Epstein files. Attacks on voting rights and civil liberties. Judiciary Republicans have ignored it all, and instead held a hearing to peddle Islamophobic conspiracy theories. Shame.

Should early airport beers be banned? Steve Brine asks whether airlines and airports have a role to play in ensuring that clearly intoxicated passengers are prevented from boarding flights, rather than banning alcohol service entirely.

Joined @99pi.org to talk about the U.S. Constitution, balance of state & federal power, and what it means for our fights against the Trump Admin.    It’s law school 101: While the federal gov’t can incentivize behavior, it can't coerce states to change policies.
