My parents came from Mexico so their children could have a better life. In one generation, our family went from working a small plot of land to college degrees, homes of our own, and a son serving in Congress. That’s what opportunity can make possible.

On a block where Japanese American families were forced to gather before being sent to internment camps, new affordable homes are sending a powerful message: “We are here … we’re not going anywhere.”

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov Oct 30

Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress are focused on doing ANYTHING except handling the issues working families in America care about. People are desperate for an end to the rising prices, shrinking health care benefits, and instability that this president has ushered in.

America is strongest when we celebrate our diversity. Speaking to a diverse group of seniors, including many Korean-Americans at Kheir Clinic’s Vermont and Mirae ADHC centers, I made clear that I will continue to fight for their rights, recognition, and benefits.

For decades, the Bowtie sat as an abandoned former rail yard along the LA River. Now, Northeast LA communities are working to transform this 18-acre site into a state park with green space and places for families to gather, learn, and connect with nature.

ICE doesn't want us seeing what they are doing, that's why I keep showing up.

They know I can and will return at any moment. I’ll keep using my oversight authority to check conditions and make sure they’re following the law.

Art gives people a voice, preserves our culture, and brings our communities together. For more than 50 years, Self Help Graphics & Art has done just that for Boyle Heights and LA’s Eastside.

Everything costs too much. I grew up watching my parents work four to five jobs a week to make ends meet. My dad didn’t have health insurance until he got Medicare at 65. My mom lives on Social Security alone.

I visited the Teen Tech Center at the Weingart YMCA in Boyle Heights. I was able to secure $1.5 million in federal funding which has enabled them and other local YMCAs to provide teens with access to all sorts of different resources.

Trump promised to make things more affordable on day one, but he’s slashed healthcare and food programs, he’s made life MORE expensive. How is that America first? This President and the Republicans in Congress have championed a clear agenda from the start: America last.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov Oct 24

Trump promised to lower prices on day one, instead he’s only made everyday goods more expensive. His war of choice with Iran and self-defeating trade wars have been disastrous for working families. In Election Day Trump’s going to see just how angry Americans really are.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov Oct 21

Trump promised to lower costs on day one: he did the opposite. He campaigned on no new wars, he started a war of choice with Iran that we’re STILL stuck in. Over and over the president has lied to the American people and broken his promises.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov Oct 20

He was a Long Beach city employee for almost a decade and has no reported criminal record, but none of that mattered to Trump’s ICE agents.

In Trump’s America, if you simply look like Ricardo, if you look like me, they’ll arrest you and throw you to the ground.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez @gomez.house.gov Oct 19

Trump’s rogue ICE agents might feel protected by the president to do whatever they want, but I got news for them: you're wrong.

It doesn’t matter who you are, if you’ve broken the law, if you’ve violated the constitution: accountability is coming.
