Young Kim, a member of the U.S. Congress representing California’s 40th district, recently shared her views on several topics via social media posts. Her tweets covered educational milestones, transportation funding concerns, and community cultural celebrations.

On February 20, 2025, Young Kim extended her congratulations to Santiago Canyon College for its quarter-century milestone. She praised the institution for “25 years of providing quality, affordable educational opportunities to students across Southern California” and expressed her support for continued success in education over the next 25 years. The full tweet can be found here.

The following day, February 21, she voiced criticism regarding California’s high-speed rail project. In her post made at 00:59 UTC, she pointed out that despite spending over $16 billion and more than a decade of efforts, there is still no operational high-speed rail in the state. She welcomed an investigation by the U.S. Department of Transportation into whether federal funds should continue supporting what she termed as “this train to nowhere.” Her sentiments on this matter are documented here.

Later on February 21 at 01:30 UTC, Young Kim reflected on attending the Villa Park Community Services Foundation’s Lunar New Year Celebration. She enjoyed performances from various artists and particularly noted an “incredible traditional Lion Dance” performed by the Vietnamese Student Club of Villa Park High School. Further details about this event can be viewed here.
