Congressman Raul Ruiz, M.D.

Now is our time. It is our time to defend democracy. I will continue to fight for and with each one of you! This is just the beginning. #handsoff

ICE is already trying to spin that our visit today did not come with advanced notice. We did notify them — twice. Both of our teams followed protocol. They still denied us entry. So the question is: What are they hiding? This is just another example of the Trump administration…

#ICYMI: I joined @PeterDaut and @KESQ to talk about just how devastating the Big Ugly Bill is for our communities in #CA25. It makes me sick to my stomach because families will lose health care and food assistance, all while the national debt goes up to give billionaires more…

🚨 Rural hospitals are a lifeline for communities in #CA25 and across the country. When one closes, it can mean the difference between life and death. I raised the alarm while questioning one of @HHSGov’s top rural health officials. Watch here ⬇️

Moms thank @RepRaulRuizMD (CA-25) for standing up for his constituents and sharing the powerful stories of real people impacted by the health harms of living near "advanced recycling" facilities.

Moms attended an Energy & Commerce Subcommittee Hearing this week to make sure our Congresspeople know their constituents are watching. They must keep us safe from the dangerous air pollution that comes from advanced recycling!

This is just the tip of the iceberg. Read more from @RepSalinas on some of the horrible things Republicans hid in their Big Ugly Bill. Available on Substack: newdemocratcoalition.substack.com/p/heres-12-thi…

Have you seen #ThePitt on HBO Max? It just scored 13 Emmy nominations, including one for #NoahWyle as Best Lead Actor in a Drama! Fun fact: The Pitt is actually where I trained during my time becoming an ER doctor. I recently had the chance to speak with Noah about legislation…

ICE is illegally denying Members of Congress access to inspect their facilities. They keep moving the goalpost. So we’re asking: What are they hiding from the American people? 🎥: @kcalnews

🚨 What’s really going on inside the Adelanto ICE Facility? I sat down with Kristen from @ImmDef to break down the conditions inside and what people need to know. ➡️ Hear our full conversation here.

➡️ Remember: Everyone, regardless of immigration status, has constitutional rights. Hector from @IC4IJ joined to break down the resources available to immigrant communities. Know your rights. In times like these, information is power, don’t let fear silence you.

We showed up to do our job: Congressional oversight of the Adelanto ICE Facility, as required by federal law. What did we find? A chain and a lock. What will @Sec_Noem find? A resignation letter. Watch until the end to read it. @NormaJTorres @HispanicCaucus

🚨 WATCH THIS: I was just ILLEGALLY DENIED entry into the Adelanto ICE Facility with @NormaJTorres. Under federal law, Members of Congress have the right to access any DHS facility used to detain immigrants, no notice required. This isn’t just a door being closed. It’s a…

NEWS RELEASE 7/8/2025 - IID Issues Conserve Alert Due to Extreme Heat Forecast In response to dangerously high temperatures forecasted for this week, the Imperial Irrigation District (IID) has issued a Conserve Alert for Wednesday, July 9, and Thursday, July 10. The alert urges…

#ICYMI: I voted HELL NO on the Big Ugly Bill and I joined @SpecNews1SoCal and @casssemyon to discuss the effects it will have on all of our communities.

Thank you to the brave firefighters and first responders working tirelessly to contain the #WolfFire and keep our communities safe. As Hwy 243 reopens, please stay alert and follow all evacuation orders, your safety and theirs depends on it.

I’m angry. 17 million people could lose their health insurance. Rural hospitals will close. And the national debt will skyrocket. But the fight’s not over. I still believe that hope + action = change. Stay loud. I’m right here with you.

We’re fighting back against the Big Ugly Bill. Democrats have submitted over 400 amendments to call out just how dangerous this bill is. Tune in to hear are a few of mine, because the fight’s not over. This is unacceptable. #KillTheBill

Thank you for the shoutout @RepJeffries. Sincerely, the real CHC. @HispanicConf: There's still time.
