Representative Jimmy Gomez, serving California's 34th district in the U.S. Congress, has been vocal on social media regarding significant historical events and current political issues. His recent tweets reflect his stance on commemorating history, providing community assistance, and critiquing federal decisions.

On January 27, 2025, Rep. Gomez marked the anniversary of a significant historical event by stating: "Today marks 80 years since the liberation of Auschwitz—a powerful reminder of the horrors of the Holocaust. As we remember the six million lives lost and the resilience of survivors, let’s continue to educate and stand united against hate to ensure history never repeats itself."

In another tweet dated January 28, 2025, he addressed residents of Los Angeles about an upcoming deadline: "Hey Angelenos! The deadline to apply for federal disaster relief is a few weeks away, so make sure you do it ASAP. Visit https://t.co/GXUmHwoyfv, stop by a Disaster Recovery Center (open daily 9 AM–8 PM), or call my office at 213-418-1425 if you need help applying." This post highlights his effort to assist constituents in accessing necessary resources.

On the same day, Rep. Gomez criticized former President Trump for his actions regarding federal funding: "Trump spent Monday GOLFING, then came back to cut off federal funding for disaster relief, fire departments, child care, food assistance, and more. This unlawful and reckless move will hurt millions of American families across the country—no matter who they voted for." His remarks indicate concern over policy decisions impacting public services.
