LAX Leader

Rep. Jimmy Gomez, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing California’s 34th district, recently shared his views and updates on social media regarding various political and community matters.

On January 27, 2025, Rep. Gomez extended his congratulations to newly sworn-in Assemblymembers "@AsmCaloza and @AsmMarkGonzalez on their community swearing-ins!" He expressed optimism about collaborating with them to aid the city's recovery from recent fires and to improve affordability for residents.

Later that day, he criticized former President Donald Trump in a tweet posted at 17:53 UTC. He accused Trump of taking actions that would "raise prescription drug prices," "end climate protections," and "impose blanket tariffs", resulting in higher taxes for Americans. Rep. Gomez claimed these moves do not assist families struggling with rent or grocery costs, attributing Trump's decisions to influence from Elon Musk.

In another post on January 27 at 21:37 UTC, Rep. Gomez addressed concerns over mass deportations occurring nationwide. He emphasized the importance of being informed about one's rights, stating that "unless ICE has a judge-signed warrant, you don’t have to open your door or speak to them." He urged people to share this information with others to ensure they stay informed during these challenging times.
