WASHINGTON, D.C. – Democratic leadership in the U.S. House of Representatives has welcomed Congressman Sam Liccardo (CA-16) to House Democrats’ Rapid Response Task Force & Litigation Working Group. Together with pro-democracy partners, the Task Force will protect and defend everyday Americans from the onslaught of unconstitutional executive actions.
Congressman Liccardo issued the following statement:
Hello Friends!
This week, my office received thousands of messages and calls expressing various combinations of outrage and fear over the latest actions and orders of President Donald Trump—which I’m calling “Executive Disorders.”
I came into office in January ready to roll up my sleeves and work across the aisle to get traction on problems of common concern, such as the high cost of housing, insurance, and child care for American families.
The Bay Area's Indian American community came together on January 26, 2025, to celebrate India's 76th Republic Day at the India Community Center, marking the significance of this day with vibrant displays of culture and patriotism. Organized by the Association of Indo Americans, the event attracted over a thousand participants, bringing together dignitaries, local officials, and community members united by their pride for Indian culture.
After just three weeks as a new congressman on Capitol Hill, Sam Liccardo returned to the district last week and met with Coastside constituents in Half Moon Bay and Pescadero for the first time since being sworn in.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Sam Liccardo (CA-16) released the following statement:

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Two years ago today, a gunman shot eight people in Half Moon Bay, killing seven and injuring one. Congressman Sam Liccardo – who represents Half Moon Bay – released the following statement:
