On March 11, 2025, Rep. Jimmy Gomez emphasized the nature of Social Security payments made by Americans throughout their lives. He stated: "Americans spend their whole lives paying for Social Security with each and every paycheck. They’re not entitlements. They’re EARNED benefits."

In another post from March 11, 2025, Rep. Gomez questioned the target market for Tesla vehicles amidst discussions on energy policies. He commented: "Who does he think buys @Tesla cars? It’s not the 'drill, baby, drill' crowd."
