LAX Leader

Rep. Jimmy Gomez, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing California's 34th district, recently shared a series of tweets addressing key issues including climate change and gun violence. Gomez has been vocal about these matters on social media, providing his perspective on recent political actions and their implications.

On January 22, 2025, Rep. Jimmy Gomez criticized former President Trump's decision to withdraw the United States from the Paris Climate Accords. He attributed this move to Trump's alleged ties with "Big Oil donors" and described it as "reckless and short-sighted." Gomez emphasized the urgency of the climate crisis by referencing ongoing fires in Los Angeles and stressed the importance of protecting future generations. "Trump just withdrew the U.S. from the Paris Climate Accords to reward his Big Oil donors. This is reckless and short-sighted. The climate crisis is here—just look at the LA fires."

Later that day, at 22:53 UTC, Gomez posted another tweet directed at Speaker Johnson with a simple query: "This you? @SpeakerJohnson" accompanied by two links.

In a subsequent tweet on January 23, 2025, Gomez addressed another pressing issue: gun violence. Following news of a shooting in Nashville, he expressed sympathy for those affected and called for legislative action to prevent future incidents. He criticized Trump's decision to close down the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention while advocating for a safer future for children free from gun violence. "While Trump shuts down the WH Office of Gun Violence Prevention, another shooting just took place in Nashville."
