I fought to secure $34 million for critical water projects to ensure our farmers, families, businesses, & communities have the water resources they need. Water is life in the Central Valley & this is an incredible win for the people that feed America and power California! kget.com/water-watchers/reps…

It was great having @RepRudyYakym in CA-20 for a Financial Literacy Forum! From budgeting and saving to investing in your future, every family deserves the tools to build a stronger financial future. That's why we fought to pass the Working Families Tax Cuts. Financial security starts with letting you keep more of what you earn, and it was great speaking with our local families and businesses about how we can do that. 🇺🇸

Grateful for the partnership with Ridgecrest Regional Hospital CEO Jim Suver. RRH is the lifeline for thousands of Indian Wells Valley residents, including the men and women who serve at NAWS China Lake. I was proud to secure needed resources and investments for new equipment and infrastructure improvements to deliver care to our community.

$34 million secured for Central Valley water! The South Valley Project in Kern County will receive $25 million & the Seaborn Reservoir Project in Tulare County will receive $9.28 million from the @usbr Small Storage Grant Program. The Central Valley feeds America, and this funding is integral in helping us continue putting food on families’ plates across the country. fong.house.gov/media/press-r…

Grateful to receive the Guardian of Small Business award from @NFIB! Small businesses are the backbone of the Central Valley — from family farms to the entrepreneurs who bet everything on a dream. Fighting for them in Washington is an incredible privilege and I'm honored to receive this award.

Great news for Edwards AFB and the Aerospace Valley! Proud to announce nearly $11 million for a state-of-the-art Aviation Maintenance Technology Training Facility at Edwards. It will expand hands-on training for high school students, active-duty personnel, military spouses, and veterans. From breaking the sound barrier in 1947 to testing the B-21 and F-47 today, Edwards continues to lead. This ensures they have the workforce to match. 🇺🇸 kget.com/news/fong-announces…

Lowest poverty rate on record under @POTUS and Republican leadership. When you put the American people first and let them keep more of what they earn, it shows. This is exactly what the Working Families Tax Cuts Act delivered. From no tax on tips or Social Security, to Trump Accounts, to cutting taxes for working families, we are fighting for the American Dream. reuters.com/world/us-poverty…

🚨 California Democrats shouldn't be able to force their radical environmental agenda on American businesses nationwide. House Republicans PASSED @RepVinceFong’s bill that reverses the state's costly climate tax to help strengthen our supply chains and lower costs for families and small businesses.

Tonight, Amanda and I are wishing our Jewish friends and neighbors a meaningful and blessed Yom Kippur. May this Day of Atonement bring peace and renewal. To those observing, G'mar Chatimah Tovah!

Thank you for your leadership, @SecKennedy. Together, we are fighting to ensure fungal disease — like Valley Fever right here in the Central Valley — gets the attention, research, and resources it deserves. I’m proud to lead the fight in the House and I’m grateful to have Secretary Kennedy’s support.

On National POW/MIA Recognition Day, we honor those who endured the unimaginable as prisoners of war and we remember the more than 80,000 service members still unaccounted for. We owe it to them and their families to never stop remembering and never stop fighting to bring them home. America is free because of the inconceivable sacrifice of those in uniform who are willing to risk everything to protect and defend our nation.

Proud to speak at today's HHS roundtable on raising awareness of fungal diseases like Valley Fever alongside @SecKennedy, CDC Director Schwartz, HHS leadership, and patients. Valley Fever is personal to me. It affects our friends and neighbors across the Central Valley, and too often, it is misdiagnosed or caught too late. Grateful for the partnership and leadership from Sec. Kennedy and HHS as we develop new treatments and cures.

Happy 79th Birthday to the United States Air Force! 🇺🇸 From Chuck Yeager breaking the sound barrier at Edwards Air Force Base in 1947 to the next generation of aircraft being tested there today, the Aerospace Valley has been at the heart of American airpower from the very beginning. To the men and women of Edwards AFB and installations across our nation — thank you for your service, your sacrifice, your dedication, and your commitment to keeping America safe.

The CA High-Speed Rail price tag has ballooned 700% to $231 billion. We still have 0 trains & 0 tracks. So where’s the money going? To consultants for luxury travel, cigar bars, & tiki bars! The pattern of mismanagement continues. This project needs to end.

Proud to work with @RepVinceFong to pass our legislation ending two California hidden taxes on America. CA already has the highest gas prices in the nation. The last thing families need is more unworkable mandates driving costs even higher. From the Assembly Floor to the House Floor — we won't stop fighting for Californians. 🇺🇸

Thanks to the Working Families Tax Cuts Act, we are investing $50 billion to improve health care in rural communities, with California receiving over $230 million through the Rural Health Transformation Program. Proud to work with @DrOzCMS on this generational investment into communities like ours. Your ZIP code shouldn't determine the care you receive. 🇺🇸
