Just held a Telephone Townhall with 11,313 constituents on Trump’s reckless shutdown.

Republicans don’t care if working people lose their healthcare—they let ACA subsidies expire and shut down the government to play politics.

Families shouldn’t pay the price for their chaos.

The government is shut down. Federal employees are working without pay. Four million Americans are about to lose their health insurance. But as long as Trump’s busy making memes and having fun, everything’s fine right, Mike?

Wishing a meaningful Yom Kippur to everyone in Los Angeles and across the country observing today. May this be a day of reflection, renewal, and peace.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov · 7d

Why did Trump and Republicans shut down the government?

To force millions of Americans to pay more in taxes just to keep their health care—or lose it altogether.

All while the billionaire class keeps cashing in on Trump’s “one big, beautiful bill” that gave them trillions in permanent tax breaks.

My statement on Republicans shutting down the government.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov · 8d

Trump can't keep our government open and has no one to blame but himself.

When Americans wake up tomorrow morning, they will know who's at fault: Donald Trump and the spineless Republicans who sold them out.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov · 8d

At midnight tonight, Republicans will let Donald Trump shut down the government because they don't have the balls to stop him. Millions of their own constituents will suffer, and Americans will remember who sold us out.

Every time Donald Trump puts up a racist AI generated video of Hakeem Jefferies or any of my colleagues, I’ll put a new movie poster about Trump and Epstein.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov · 8d

The Republicans canceled votes on the day that the federal government is shutting down at midnight. Millions of Americans will see their healthcare premiums skyrocket because of them.

Democrats are here to work and get the job done.

Tell Trump and the Republicans to do their jobs.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov · 8d

Trump just called American citizens “the enemy within,” encouraging the men and women of the armed forces to use OUR cities as military training grounds.

It’s time to wake up, put aside our differences, and create a united front to oppose Trump’s unconstitutional and illegal abuse of power.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov · 8d

I strongly condemn the vile and dangerous threats made against my friend and colleague, Rep. Jayapal. Amid an already dangerous climate, this rhetoric only increases the likelihood of further violence. Republicans must denounce it, there can be no tolerance for inciting violence.

#TeamGomez joined Little Tokyo Service Center to celebrate the opening of The Umeya, turning the historic Umeya Rice Cake Factory into affordable homes in Little Tokyo and Skid Row. Projects like this are exactly what we need to solve America’s housing crisis.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov · 9d

In two days, Republicans will shut down the government unless they can rip health care away from 4.2 million people. Add that to the 10 million already hit by Trump’s Big 'Beautiful' Bill, and you see exactly who Republicans are willing to sacrifice to please their Dear Leader.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov · 10d

Trump’s DOJ is demanding states hand over our most personal data: voting history, driver’s licenses, even Social Security numbers.

This isn’t normal. It’s a direct attack on our privacy and an attempt to rig our elections from the inside out.

Democracy Docket @democracydocket.com · 11d

After the DOJ sued six states over their refusal to hand over sensitive voter data, @padilla.senate.gov (D-CA) called out Trump’s weaponization of the DOJ and said the president would “stop at nothing to rig future elections in a desperate effort to cling to power.”

The American Dream is about taking risks, exploring opportunities, and building something of your own.

I joined the Eastside Hustle & Heart Summit in Lincoln Heights to spotlight our small business owners who are pursuing their dreams and strengthening our community.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov · 14d

Today, I rallied with health care providers to warn what’s at stake if Republicans shut down the government and allow ACA tax credits to expire. I’ll keep pressing them to negotiate so working families don’t pay the price.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov · 15d

Republicans are coming for your Social Security and not even trying to hide it.

It’s almost as if their "Big Beautiful Bill" was written BY billionaires FOR billionaires.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov · 16d

Shanah Tovah to everyone in Los Angeles and across the country celebrating Rosh Hashanah. Wishing you all a happy, healthy, and peaceful New Year!
