Unlike Young Kim and her MAGA Republican allies, I want to keep government open.

They want to cut Healthcare and raise our costs. And will shut down the government to try and do it.

Lets flip the 40th to take back Congress and put people above partisanship.

My name is Lisa Ramirez, and I'm running for Congress because California deserves better.

We have an opportunity to take back California's 40th, but I can't do it alone.

We are just one day away from a government shutdown, and Young Kim is fully prepared to allow your healthcare premiums to skyrocket contrary to what she said she would do. We need leaders that will protect our benefits and our people, not cave to party bosses.

America only works when wages are livable, housing is attainable, and institutions are accountable. I’m running for Congress because our district deserves leadership that fights for every resident—regardless of income, background, or party affiliation.

While Young Kim defends tax breaks for billionaires, families in our district are struggling to aﬀord groceries and healthcare.

I’m running because I know who deserves a seat at the table and whose voice and needs go unnoticed: the people who work, contribute, and sacrifice every single day.

Housing is not a privilege for the wealthy, but a basic human right. That’s part of the future we must build together.

Young people shouldn’t grow up believing homeownership is out of reach. A fair economy means housing is attainable and the next generation can stay close to family in the communities they were raised.

We cannot punish those who contribute to our society, pay taxes and qualify to become American citizens so they too have representation.

Spent the weekend at Congressman Correa's naturalization fair helping California residents becomea American citizens. Right now, it is becoming harder to become a citizen. As your next Congresswoman in CA-40, I'm going to make this process more streamlined.

As an attorney, I know how critical due process is and when taken away, the devastation that ensues. In Congress will work to ensure this right and all Constitutional rights are protected. www.ocregister.com/2025/09/05/d...

Due process matters for EVERYONE. Immigrants as well as American citizens.

Let's not take this right for granted. It is the foundation of our democracy and a free society.

Due process for immigrants matters for Americans, too

Americans shouldn’t turn a blind eye to the flouting of due process.

We have an opportunity to reverse this now. Together we can remove Kim from office and elect a representative who puts the needs of the American people first.

As if healthcare costs aren't high enough, Young Kim just voted for a bill that will make healthcare costs rise fast for low- and middle-income California residents.

Affordable Care Act subsidies should be extended, not cut.

As an immigration attorney, I see the fear in the eyes of families everyday and I refuse to sit silently while our government tramples on our rights because of the color of our skin.

Young Kim believes immigration agents are only deporting criminal undocumented immigrants and that U.S. Citizens and permanent residents are not being targeted.

Those of us on the ground, working for and in the community know otherwise.

I will continue to defend him and others like him until they have the legal status they qualify for and deserve. Full story: www.nytimes.com/2025/09/17/u...

Narciso Barranco was arrested by agents while weeding outside an IHOP. He has 3 sons in the United States Marines. ICE agents did not care.

As his attorney, I am proud to say he is out of custody and back with his family.

My name is Lisa Ramirez. I'm an immigration attorney and steadfast advocate running for Congress because I can't sit back and watch our constitutional rights erode not just for people of color but every American.

What makes America great isn’t our politics or our position in the world. It’s our principles—justice, democracy, freedom. Those ideals are quickly eroding. I’m running to defend them and build a future where they work for everyone.

The federal government takes $2.4T from individual tax returns every year. They count on us being distracted so they can funnel our money to themselves and their corporate allies. It’s time to wake up, fire them, and put our tax dollars back to work for us.

My deepest condolences go out to Charlie Kirk and his family.

Political violence has no place in our nation. Today’s events are terrifying, tragic, and horrific.

We deserve better. I'm running for Congress to stop it and demand justice for all of us.

Yesterdays decision by SCOTUS gives a green light to racial profiling.

Its unAmerican and unconstitutional. It sends a chilling message to all people of color.

I am Latina. I speak Spanish. I was born here. And I am American.

Great to be at the Orange County Labor Fed Picnic with Lou Correa!

Organized Labor does so much to stand up for working families - from protecting rights to advocating for fair wages. Thanks for all you do!
