Jimmy Gomez, a U.S. Congressman representing California's 34th district, has recently expressed his concerns on social media regarding Social Security and the accountability of government officials. In a series of tweets dated March 25, 2025, Gomez addressed these pressing issues.

In a tweet posted on March 25, 2025, at 00:43:47 UTC, Gomez highlighted the importance of Social Security for nearly 100,000 residents in his district. He criticized proposals from "Trump, Elon Musk and Congressional Republicans" that he believes threaten these benefits. Gomez invited constituents to join him in El Sereno on March 28 at 11 AM to discuss how he plans to protect Social Security. " Social Security is a lifeline for nearly 100K in my district..."

Later that day at 16:42:30 UTC, Gomez took to Twitter again to criticize the handling of sensitive information by government officials under the current administration. He suggested that if this situation had occurred under a Democratic administration, there would be significant backlash from Republicans and media outlets like Fox News. He called for accountability due to what he described as a "stupid and dangerous leak." "If this were a Democratic administration..."

In another tweet on March 25, 2025, at 19:54:04 UTC, Gomez accused the Trump administration of setting up Social Security to fail rather than fixing it. He also criticized Elon Musk for allegedly using private data improperly and warned against GOP-backed billionaires who might exploit retirement funds. Gomez characterized these actions not as reform but as a "heist." "The Trump admin isn’t fixing Social Security—it’s setting it up to fail."
