Listening to Your Concerns

I hosted another town hall at the Lincoln Heights Senior Center where I announced the creation of my Youth Advisory Council – a nonpartisan student council designed to help students become better community leaders.

#DoSomething

I joined House Democrats in a letter calling on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to do something to help end gun violence – more specifically, to vote on bills we have passed to keep our communities safe.

Rep. Stephanie Murphy visited me in Los Angeles and we talked about why gun violence is personal for her. Watch our conversation.

Addressing Homelessness

Rep. Jimmy Gomez meets with homelessness advocates to discuss solutions to end homelessness.

Finding effective solutions to the homelessness crisis requires an all-hands-on-deck approach.

We need substantive conversations about what’s working and what isn’t. Between my Homelessness Roundtable in Skid Row and participating in Rep. Maxine Waters’ homelessness field hearing, I worked with local and national partners to examine the causes of homelessness and solutions for how we can help end it.

Your Stories Matter

Our personal stories are our greatest assets.

Being a son of immigrants, I understand the importance our stories have in our mission to protect those who seek what our families sought.

I visited CARECEN in Koreatown to share my story and join in the fight to protect TPS recipients.

Welcome to CA-34, Warner Music Group!

I visited the Old Ford Building in the Arts District to see Warner Music Group’s new offices.

Warner Music relocated to the Arts District earlier this year bringing more jobs to Los Angeles to create today’s biggest hits.

Fighting for Working Families

I don’t want families to have to go through the same experiences my family and I went through. That is why I have championed equitable paid family leave policies since my days in the California Assembly.

As we work on developing a national policy, I joined the California Work and Family Coalition at their quarterly meeting in Koreatown to listen to what would make an effective – and equitable – national paid family leave policy for all working families.

Let's KCON!

This year, KCON took place in CA-34 – home to the largest Korean American community in the nation!

KCON celebrates more than Korean culture, music, food, and trends – it builds bridges between communities.

Senior Scam Stopper

More seniors are becoming targets of fraudulent activities.

Because of this, my office hosted another Senior Scam Stopper in Little Tokyo with speakers from Social Security, USCIS, and the IRS helping seniors understand and recognize signs of fraud in their mail, emails, and phone calls.
