Congresswoman Lateefah Simon
@replsimon
Care work is the quiet engine of this country. As co-chair of @demwomencaucus.bsky.social Caregiving Task Force, I am proud to join my colleagues to introduce a Congressional Resolution designating April as "Care Workers Recognition Month" to commit ourselves to caring for those who care for us.

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.
Thank you to everyone who came out to my town hall with @mayoradenaishii.bsky.social and shared your concerns and priorities. Your voices and stories are the very center and focus of my work here and in Washington.
This week, I introduced the Crime Survivor Support and Stability Act. This legislation was developed in partnership with my colleague @repemiliasykes.bsky.social and incredible community partners like @only1tinisch.bsky.social with Californians for Safety and Justice.
As the first congenitally blind member of Congress, bringing disabled voices to the policy making table is extremely important to me. Last week, I hosted a roundtable at the Center for Independent Living in Berkeley to hear from and strategize with disability leaders on the most pressing issues.
I announced $1 MILLION in federal Community Project Funding for a new Pediatric Blood Disorder Research Center at @ucsfchildrens.bsky.social. In 2014, I lost my husband to a rare blood cancer called T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia. A clinical trial gave our family two more years together.
I joined @seiu.org to protest Republicans' latest reconciliation bill which includes $350 billion more for Trump's immigration enforcement machine. Democrats have been successful in withholding funding for ICE, so Republicans are trying to abuse the reconciliation process to push ICE $ through.
Two incredible women, Mayor Lee and Councilwoman Ramachandran from CA-12 joined me to wish you a happy Women's History Month and to honor the women who came before us.
I am proud to represent a beautiful tapestry of communities from all different backgrounds. Our cities were built and are sustained every single day by immigrants, yet the Trump Admin is trying to restrict access to Small Biz Administration resources with bigotry fueled citizenship requirements.
Eid Mubarak East Bay! Mayor Lee and I are wishing you all a blessed and joyous Eid Al-Fitr with loved ones and family.
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!

You're not tired of voting for the lesser of two evils. You're tired of Republicans. Democrats haven't held the house, the Senate, the White House, and the Supreme Court since 1969 with the Warren Court. 💁🏻♂️ Truth bomb guy @ thatnickpowersguy #RepublicansProtectPedofiles #StopVotingForTheRich

Football is for the fans! ⚽️ We need to make sure football fans voices are represented at national and club level. I was delighted to host a summit with fans organisations from across Scotland to discuss how we make football fairer for all.
Unexplained orbs filmed out at sea on 31st August 1994. Although I personally believe UFOs are bollocks I do find these older videos more intriguing because there is less technology back then for digital fuckery
American families are already stretched thin at the pump. Now Trump says doubling gas prices would be worth it for his unauthorized war in Iran. He is not the one paying that price. You are. And he does not seem to care how high it goes.

They told you they would. This administration is literally trying to kill off the most vulnerable. 36% of those on Medicaid in CA are children, 40% are births, 12% are seniors (including hospice/homecare), and 8% are people with disabilities. Inhumane and Unconscionable.
