Congressional (in)action:

Tonight the Congress voted on a "continuing resolution" to re-open the federal government by funding it on a short-term basis. This development only bought two more weeks for the President and Congress to negotiate but does not commit to a vote renewing DACA for more than 800,000 DREAMers affected by the President's decision to cancel the program four months ago.

I want to assure you that my offices will be open and our work for you and the people in Silicon Valley will continue. If you have a question or a problem with the federal agency, you can reach me or my staff here — or call the Washington office at (202) 225-2631 or my Santa Clara district office at (408) 436-2720 during normal business hours Monday through Friday.

Happy New Year, CA-17!

As we begin a new year, I am truly grateful for each of you who took the time to make your voice heard by contacting me with your views and concerns. My Santa Clara and Washington, DC offices received nearly 70,000 calls, emails, and letters from Silicon Valley residents who care deeply about their government. Your passion and participation is inspiring and helps me to be a more informed and effective representative for you.

I would like to highlight some of the work that I did to improve the lives of the people of CA-17 and the country.

I hope that you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. As the holiday season begins, I want to provide a few updates about recent developments over the past month in Congress and share some important information from my office.

Earlier this month, the House passed a massive tax bill at a cost of $1.4 trillion dollars. The vast majority of the benefits of this bill go to the top 0.1 percent of income earners through tax cuts for large corporations and elimination of the estate tax so that the very wealthiest can receive massive inheritances tax-free.
