Rep. Jimmy Gomez, a member of the U.S. Congress representing California's 34th district, recently shared his views on various political and economic issues through a series of tweets. These tweets highlight his concerns regarding Tesla's sales performance, a temporary funding bill proposed by House Republicans, and broader economic implications.

On March 11, 2025, Rep. Gomez commented on Tesla's declining sales in California during the fourth quarter. He noted that non-Tesla electric vehicle sales had reached record levels and speculated about the first quarter of 2025, suggesting it might be unfavorable if former President Trump attempts to market Teslas to his supporters. "Tesla Sales Got Crushed in Q4 in California, its Largest US Market. Non-Tesla EV Sales Jumped to a Record."

Later that day, Gomez expressed opposition to a temporary funding bill put forth by House Republicans. He criticized the bill for potentially harming the economy and various social groups while granting former President Trump and Elon Musk significant power to impose tariffs that could increase consumer prices. He confirmed his decision to vote against it. "House Republicans’ temporary funding bill hurts the economy, veterans, families AND gives Trump and Elon unchecked power to impose dumb tariffs raising prices for everyone."
