"More than $1 million were wagered during the 2025 Los Angeles wildfires on prediction markets, with bets ranging from how long the fires would last to which neighborhoods would burn down. No one should be able to profit off that kind of tragedy. I introduced the bipartisan No Bets on Wildfires Act with @RepGallagherCA1, @RepSalinas, and @RepVinceFong to ban betting on wildfires and stop anyone from profiting off the destruction of our communities, the loss of lives, and the sacrifices of our firefighters."

"People should never be able to profit off the suffering of others. Wildfires can be started by a single person, and betting markets could create an incentive for someone to start a fire to influence their bet. That’s dangerous and completely wrong. I spoke with @TheoJaffee on @MTSLive about why we need to put an end to wildfire betting."

"As a dad, I’m seeing firsthand how AI is changing the way our kids learn. Students are using AI to write their assignments, which means that they’re not developing the critical skills they need to become independent thinkers. I joined @TheoJaffee with @MTSLive to talk about my bill that would study how AI is affecting kids’ learning, attention spans, and development so we can better understand how to address these challenges."

"With Congressional power about to shift towards Democrats, Trump and Putin have been pressuring Ukraine into accepting a bad deal, putting their own political interests ahead of Ukrainian lives and security. Read my full op-ed in @TheHillOpinion: https://t.co/9XbPbeWgHV https://t.co/PbC7ssECwf"

"Thanks to @Reuters, @ASP and the Creative Artists Agency for hosting an important discussion about how AI is impacting everything from government to Hollywood. I was glad to join @kenli729, @TheRachLindsay and @MarkKassen for a discussion on what role Congress should play in regulating AI, including some of the bills I introduced to put up commonsense guardrails around AI development."
