Legislative Priorities

Agriculture is the cornerstone of Ventura County’s economy, supporting thousands of jobs throughout our region. It is also a proud part of our heritage, giving our community its unique beauty. In Congress, I have worked hard to support our farmers, farmworkers, and businesses that help feed the nation.

We have a sacred responsibility to those who have served our country in uniform. As a daughter, sister, and niece of veterans, I take no responsibility more personally and seriously. When I came to Congress, the very first committee I asked to serve on was the House Veterans’ Affairs Committee. Both here in Ventura County and at the national level, I have made it my priority to put our nation’s veterans first. That means helping our servicemembers transition back into civilian life and caring for our veterans by ensuring they all receive the timely, high-quality healthcare and benefits they have earned and deserve. It also means tackling veterans homelessness and unemployment and addressing high suicide rates that continue to plague our nation’s heroes. Finally, as more and more women join our Armed Forces and return home after their service, I’ve made it a special focus to ensure that the VA is prepared for the changing veteran demographics. Women represent the fastest-growing veteran population and the VA needs to adapt to meet their needs. That means making sure the VA offers gender-specific healthcare, addressing the unique circumstances leading to female veteran suicide, and providing critical wrap-around services like job-training, child care, and caregiver assistance. It’s long past time to recognize the contributions that all veterans, female and male, have made to our great nation.

We must invest in our nation’s infrastructure including our airports, roads, bridges, and waterways that are vital to the movement of people and goods across our country. As a member of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, I have been working to address the infrastructure challenges facing Ventura County and the nation.

As Ventura County’s Representative in Congress, I view everything I do through the lens of how it will create jobs and grow our economy. From our ports, to our large and small businesses, to our naval base, to our agricultural community, I strive to advance federal policy that will support our diverse job creators.

The 26th District

The district includes most of Ventura County and a portion of Los Angeles County, including the cities of Oxnard, Santa Paula, Fillmore, Camarillo, Newbury Park, Moorpark, Thousand Oaks, Simi Valley, Westlake Village, Agoura Hills, and Calabasas. If you are interested in browsing district-specific population statistics, you can look up Census data for the 26th District. I am honored to serve the residents of the 26th Congressional District of California.

Throughout my career in Congress, I have made it my utmost priority to serve our nation’s veterans as well as they have served us. That commitment has always been my North Star.

Because at the heart of it all, this is our nation’s promise to them – and we must fight every day to ...uphold it.

From expanding long-term care through the Elizabeth Dole Act to advancing equity in women veterans’ healthcare through the Deborah Sampson Act, none of this work would be possible without strong partners like the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP).

Last week, I was deeply honored to receive WWP’s Legislator of the Year Award. This recognition serves as a powerful reminder that we must never lose sight of the brave men and women who have worn our nation’s uniform.

Together, we will continue to fight for the care, the dignity, and the recognition our veterans have earned.

Yesterday, #TeamBrownley joined first responders across #VenturaCounty in solemn remembrance of 9/11.

As we reflected on the lives lost in this horrific attack, we were reminded of the extraordinary courage and heroism shown by firefighters and first responders on one of the darkest days ...in our nation’s history. We are forever grateful for their service and sacrifice — on September 11 and every day since.
