This week has been a busy one in Washington. I helped pass the Lower Energy Costs Act, questioned USDA Secretary Vilsack about water and agriculture policy, held an oversight hearing on water storage issues in the west, and more.
Check out how I’ve been working to deliver results to the Central Valley:
