Now imagine a world where Donald Trump has accountability to Congress again. That’s the world we’re going to create when I get there.
It's time for change. I'm the Democrat running to bring fresh, new ideas to CA37! Voters are tired of more of the same, so let's change it! https://www.toddforcongress.us/

This is why I'm running for Congress: to fight for job creation for the people of CA37. Because ineffective leadership in DC isn't working.

Another way to read this: the Trump Administration is increasing energy costs and eliminating jobs for Americans. That's what happens when power is left unchecked.

I don't want to hear anymore thoughts and prayers. When I'm elected to Congress, we're going to actually do something about these weapons that can take the lives of our children in seconds. And I won't back down until we make it a reality. Saying enough isn't enough anymore.

Illinois Gov. Pritzker vows to pursue Trump officials who participate in an illegal National Guard deployment to Chicago: "If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me - not time or political circumstance - from making sure that you face justice under our constitutional rule of law."

Donald Trump deploying the National Guard for no reason is not a stunt or a distraction. It is the very thing Congress should be standing up to.

Congress has let Trump get away with too much, for too long. It's time to fight fire with fire, just like Newsom. When I get to Congress, that is exactly what we will do - on behalf of the voters.

What people voted for: lower prices. What people are getting: higher prices. It's time for Congress to take back its power of the purse and stand up to Trump.

This is not a "renovated" office of a man who thinks he is leaving office in 3 years. He should have never been back in the first place. When I get to Congress in 2026, we will stop giving away our power, and stop MAGA for real. This is why I'm running.

ICE agents detained a 15-year-old disabled student in Los Angeles! This is not who we are...but with silence we are letting it happen. Those in Congress and those running for Congress - your silence is as loud as gunshots. This will change when I am elected.

Being brown in America is not a crime, but kidnapping people is. The road to tyranny is paved with people not wanting to get involved. There will be consequences for kidnappers when I'm elected to Congress.

Trump only has one move: create a fake emergency to distract us from the real one. Distract, divide, destroy. But we’re not moving on from the Epstein Files.

This headline gets it right. It's NEVER been about immigration status, it's always been about being brown in Los Angeles. So how do we stop this? We demand Congress repeals the bill that funded ICE at this level. When I’m elected I’ll fight for that.

Trump is the grift that keeps on grifting. Beyond nuts that we'll spend $10 million of our tax dollars on this. We can't lower grocery prices or fund our schools, but we can give tax breaks to rich folks who don't need them? Not on my watch. This is why I'm running for Congress.

Insane. This $9B includes funding for resources like PBS that provide wildfire information to Californians. Congress is supposed to be in charge of the budget. Instead they are taking orders from an executive branch distracted by an Epstein-sized mess. When I’m in Congress, this will stop.

I applaud the AG of California. FEMA is critical when tragedy strikes. Trump wants to cut it. This isn’t a Republican or Democrat issue - but a moral one. Nice try, buddy. Trump can try to cut FEMA, or try to change Coke, but the thing he can’t do is change the topic away from Jeffrey Epstein.

Trump just threw MAGA under the bus. And supporters bought his “bullshit” “hook, line, & sinker.” Rather than lower costs for Americans, he’s distracting us. The GOP has ZERO spine to stop this. THIS IS WHY I’M RUNNING: to fight for lower costs & a better quality of life. It’s time for action.
