Young Kim, a U.S. Congress member representing California's 40th district, recently shared her views on international relations and the United States' role on the global stage through a series of tweets. Kim emphasized the importance of maintaining America's leadership in various sectors, including food security and democratic governance.

On February 1, 2025, Young Kim stated that "For decades, USAID has helped the U.S. lead on the world stage by promoting food security, global health, economic prosperity, and democratic governance." She stressed the need to "boost government efficiency while continuing to show up and engage abroad as the partner of choice." "Original quotation"

In another tweet posted shortly after on February 1, 2025, Kim highlighted the necessity for careful reforms to maintain America's global influence. She warned that "Missteps will allow our adversaries, including China, an open door to fill the void," underscoring that "America must be strong for a peaceful world." "Original quotation"

Further elaborating on her perspective during her travels with @HouseForeignGOP on February 3, 2025, Kim noted that their partners have expressed that “showing up builds trust.” She commended @SecRubio for his efforts and reiterated that when "the United States isn’t there," adversaries like China are quick to step in.
