If you did, you probably saw Donald Trump’s political ads that aired in the middle of the games – ads that were “paid for by the U.S. government.”   These ads are a shocking use of taxpayer money – and they’re illegal.   There are multiple federal laws that bar taxpayer funds from being used for partisan, political purposes, including the Hatch Act. These ads have reportedly cost taxpayers at least $10 million – and one of them is practically a frame-by-frame copy of an ad the Trump campaign produced and ran in 2024.   This is propaganda – plain and simple, designed to help the President’s political party ahead of the midterms – and paid for by you.   I’m calling on federal watchdogs to investigate and prosecute this breach of public trust and misuse of public funds.    And I’m running for re-election to continue this work of holding the Trump administration accountable. Will you chip in and support that work today? DONATE NOW Instead of bringing down prices or passing policies that benefit the American people, the President is spending your tax dollars to spread his self-aggrandizing campaign ads. Californians should not have to pay for President Trump’s political grandstanding.   No one is above the law – not even this President. There are clear limits on his power, and every time he tries to cross them, we will hold him accountable. I remain ready to take on every illegal action and unconstitutional move Donald Trump makes over the rest of his presidency, and I need you by my side.    Will you contribute $25 to support my re-election campaign and power the work ahead?
