Proud to represent San Diego and a new generation of leaders in Congress.

It was great to visit and help build one of the tiny homes in El Cajon that’s helped dozens of women and children experiencing homelessness find stability and a path to permanent housing. We need more creative solutions like these to help people get housed.

The average family in CA-51 has paid over $6,500 more for housing, grocery, health care, gas and utilities under President Trump. It’s not a coincidence and it wasn’t inevitable – it’s a result of his (terrible) policy choices.

Read my op-ed to learn about my vision for how Congress should regulate AI – from the frontier model level to how companies and institutions are deploying AI to how it’s impacting workers, students, and economic opportunity. newsweek.com/rep-jacobs-wash…

It was so fun to answer questions from Dailard Elementary’s 2nd graders! I was asked what my favorite part of my job is and it’s meeting young people like them!

Trust and safety are our competitive advantage in the AI race. But to build systems that people actually want to use and trust, Congress needs to act on the societal, model, deployer, and impact levels. Read more in my op-ed:   newsweek.com/rep-jacobs-wash…

Dropping the “Mother of all Bombs” on Iran will likely fail to achieve meaningful military objectives – and create civilian casualties due to its blast radius. It’s a bad idea by any metric. Trump should end the war, but that won’t happen by dropping more bombs.
The US military has developed new strike plans that include potentially using the so-called "mother of all bombs" to target Iranian energy infrastructure and nuclear sites should President Donald Trump give the order to resume combat operations either before or after the midterm elections, according to multiple US officials familiar with the matter. cnn.it/4zwhxUu

The Pentagon is trying to avoid accountability, but I won’t let them. I passed an amendment through the House to require the Pentagon to share its report of the Iran school strike with Congress and the public – and I will keep working until it’s law. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Being first in the AI race won’t matter if no one uses what you build – or if you lose control of the technology. That’s why Congress needs to do its job and act on AI now. Read more in my op-ed here: newsweek.com/rep-jacobs-wash…

The sailors and Marines on the USS Abraham Lincoln are thankfully home, but our oversight isn’t over. We need answers and accountability to prevent this crisis from happening again – especially for our service members who are still fighting Trump’s war in Iran. npr.org/2026/10/08/nx-s1-599…

Everything about Trump’s war – from its lack of strategy to execution to the hundreds of civilian casualties – makes Iran less likely to adhere to a deal, and undermines U.S. credibility. We need action and accountability about this trend of civilian harm. nytimes.com/2026/10/11/us/po…

Donald Trump set a new record today. Americans have NEVER paid over $4 for a gallon of gas nationally this many days in a single year before. #ThanksTrump

Donald Trump is putting a new trade rule in place that will raise the costs of prescription drugs for millions of Americans. The rule could also cause shipping delays or block access to some drugs entirely. If he cared, Trump could stop this immediately. apnews.com/article/drug-pric…

For Stephen Miller and Donald Trump, cruelty has always been the point. ICE and DHS are continuing to blatantly break the law and Republicans in Congress are nowhere to be found. We need to stop ICE and hold this Administration accountable.  npr.org/2026/10/08/nx-s1-598…

Fascists prey on fear, but thankfully, @ilhan is fearless. She won’t back down to anyone when she’s defending Minneapolis or civil rights. It’s why President Trump is weaponizing the federal government to go after her three weeks before an election. I stand with Rep. Omar.
The Office of Congresswoman Omar released the following statement: “This raid by Trump’s DHS is an outrageous abuse of power and an unprecedented escalation in the weaponization of federal law enforcement to target political enemies. For a decade, Donald Trump has relentlessly targeted Congresswoman Ilhan Omar with inflammatory rhetoric, repeatedly putting a target on her back. Now, those attacks have escalated to a pointless federal raid. The Congresswoman has done nothing wrong. No president should be able to use the power of the federal government to intimidate his political enemies.”

This report from the New York Federal Reserve just found that without Trump’s tariffs, the cost of many everyday items would have gone DOWN in the last year. Instead, as we all know, prices have shot up. Trump is choosing to make your life more expensive. cnbc.com/amp/2026/10/08/infl…

Trump and Republicans in Congress jacked up the price of health insurance for millions of Americans, including seniors on Medicare. A one time $90 check won’t even cover half of ONE monthly premium bill. axios.com/2026/10/03/trump-m…
