Rep. Jimmy Gomez, who represents California’s 34th district in the U.S. Congress, posted a series of statements on his social media account regarding recent political events and holiday greetings.

On April 1, 2026, Gomez commented on President Donald Trump’s attendance at Supreme Court oral arguments, stating, “President Donald Trump showing up at the Supreme Court today is unprecedented. No sitting president has EVER attended oral arguments. Let’s call it what it is: intimidation tied to an extreme attempt to end birthright citizenship.”

Later that day, he criticized Trump’s fiscal priorities with another post: “Donald Trump can always find money for tax breaks for billionaires, more ICE agents, and another war of choice overseas. But when it comes to child care, Medicare, Medicaid, and helping working families, suddenly he says America can’t afford it.”

On April 2, 2026, Gomez offered a message for Passover: “On the first night of Passover, wishing all those observing in LA and around the world a happy and meaningful holiday! Chag sameach.”

Gomez has served in Congress since 2017 after replacing Xavier Becerra and previously worked in the California State Assembly from 2012 to 2017. Born in Orange County in 1974 and currently residing in Los Angeles, Gomez holds a BA from UCLA.
