Espionage by the Chinese Communist Party is a threat to America and our allies that must be taken seriously with an all-of-government approach to protect our interests.
The crackdown on fraud continues thanks to @VP and the @WHFraudTF! I introduced the Zero Tolerance for Fraudsters Act to lock up fraudsters with mandatory minimum sentences. We need to send a strong message that stealing from taxpayers will not be tolerated!
"Vice President JD Vance will announce today that the federal anti-fraud task force he leads has identified $40 million in welfare fraud and more than 40 suspects behind the alleged schemes."

I want to thank the Corona Police Department and @FBILosAngeles for their proactive actions to protect Corona students and teachers from this threat.
It was an exciting morning in Palm Springs as we celebrated the Baggage Handling System Groundbreaking at Palm Springs International Airport. I helped secure $3 million in Community Project Funding to expand and modernize this important component of the PSP operations residents and visitors rely on.
Together with President Trump and my @HouseGOP colleagues, I backed tax policies that help you keep more of the money you earn. I voted for:
✅ Expanded SALT deduction
✅ No tax on tips
✅ No tax on overtime
✅ Expanded child tax credit
The price of gasoline in California is higher than any other state because of the high taxes and costly regulations imposed by radicals in Sacramento. We have to reverse those policies to bring relief to families suffering every time they fill their tank.
I'm glad to see @TheJusticeDept and @USAttyEssayli taking action to protect the integrity of our elections. Any voter fraud is too much voter fraud. That's why I've voted for voter ID and commonsense policies that strengthen our election security.
THIS MORNING IN CA: Acting Deputy Attorney General @PADAGMcCotter announces charges against 28 Foreign Nationals in California for election crimes.
"Today's charges demonstrate why that lawsuit [against CA over its voter rolls] is so important. The lawsuit is about preventing voter fraud that cancels out the votes of U.S. citizens. Enforcing federal law increases the integrity of elections — it increases confidence in elections."
Across our region, your federal tax dollars are being returned back home to upgrade our military bases and build the infrastructure our communities rely upon. I’ll never stop fighting for Southern California in Congress!
I toured the Kaiser Permanente Wildomar Trail Medical Building this week and saw first-hand how they are expanding heath care services for southwest Riverside County families. I know the families I represent need greater access to health care facilities as well as more affordable health care options. That’s why I voted to pass the Lower Health Care Premiums for All Americans Act – legislation that lowers health care premiums, increases health care access, expands health care choices, and brings greater transparency to America’s health care system.
Last night, I joined Canyon Lake Mayor Jeremy Smith and local leaders at the Canyon Lake State of the City event. It’s an honor to represent and support this wonderful community in Congress.
Delivering results to improve our communities is one of my top priorities in Congress. This week’s ribbon cutting for the Freedom Bridge at Bradley Road is the latest example of the partnerships I’ve developed with local leaders to bring back your tax dollars to build the infrastructure our growing communities need so desperately. You can trust me to fight for you and our region in Washington, D.C.
I joined local job creators today at the Corona Chamber of Commerce’s Good Morning Corona breakfast. I updated them on my efforts to reduce taxes and job-killing regulations, as well as fund local infrastructure improvements. Happy to see so many friends in my hometown!
I visited March Air Reserve Base today to see the work underway to prepare the base to fulfill its mission supporting eight KC-46 Pegasus aircraft. The significant investments to construct a two-bay maintenance hangar, a fuselage training facility, and simulator facility, will give our Airmen the ability to train, maintain and operate the next generation of air tankers safely and effectively.
This morning I held a Veteran Service Organization Roundtable to hear from local leaders who serve our veteran community. While Congress continues to fully fund veteran programs, it’s clear that we must hold the VA and the VA Loma Linda Healthcare System, in particular, accountable to address ongoing issues with transportation to medical appointments, veteran homeless programs, and Veteran Readiness and Employment counselors. I will always fight to ensure our veterans receive the benefits they were promised. If you are a veteran or the relative of a veteran who lives in the 41st Congressional District and need assistance with a VA issue, please contact my office at 951-277-0042.
China’s espionage agenda is a direct threat to our national security. We cannot downplay the risk it poses to America.
Wanying Zhang was just the tip of the iceberg: The Chinese government is ramping up spy recruitment across the US - and threatening people's families if they don't sign on trib.al/0GXwJRu
What a beautiful day in Menifee! This morning, I joined Mayor Estrada, the city council, city staff, local leaders, and the construction team to celebrate the completion of Freedom Bridge at Bradley Road. I proudly secured $5 million in federal funding through the Congressional appropriations process to make this project possible. The new bridge will prevent closures during rain events, improve emergency response times, and provide new recreational access across Salt Creek. I appreciate the hard work of everyone who made this project possible.
The @DeptofWar & Congress are working to break our reliance on Chinese critical mineral supplies and other materials that are essential to our national security. Combined with new resources for our manufacturing base, we are strengthening our security by investing in America! 🇺🇸
Palmer Luckey warns America must break its dependence on Chinese supply chains before it’s too late 🇺🇸🇨🇳
“We have to get off of Chinese supply chains. And not just things that are literally made in China, but even things that are dependent on China.
So if it’s dependent on Chinese precursor chemicals, or Chinese equipment for machinery or processing, we have to make very aggressive moves to stay away from that and keep a U.S. and allied supply chain to the absolute greatest extent possible.
Anduril’s not even really what I’m concerned about. It’s the broader economy, and maybe some other defense companies.
If you can believe it, there are lots of U.S. defense companies buying from China, and they haven’t had the foresight to go and build it, as we are in Ohio.”

More than five centuries ago, Christopher Columbus embarked on the voyage that forever changed the course of history and helped pave the way for the birth of the greatest nation the world has ever known.
Happy Columbus Day! 🇺🇸
The best way to help Americans who are getting hammered at the gas pump is to tap into our own energy sources and reduce our dependence on foreign energy imports. Unleashing domestic energy production will lower prices and create more jobs in America.
