Young Kim, a member of the U.S. Congress representing California's 40th district, has recently shared her views and activities on social media. The tweets provide insights into her political priorities and recent engagements.
On February 13, 2025, Young Kim expressed concern about the impact of federal taxation on her constituents. She stated, "My constituents are hurt enough by high state and local taxes and skyrocketing living costs. They shouldn't be punished even more at the federal level. That's why addressing the SALT cap is a must for me."
Later that day, she celebrated the return of American history teacher Marc Fogel to the United States after his wrongful detention in Russia. In her tweet, she thanked those involved in securing his release: "I'm thrilled American history teacher Marc Fogel is safely back in the U.S. after being wrongfully detained in Russia. Thank you to Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, & other administration officials who made it happen."
In another post on February 13, 2025, Kim addressed concerns regarding foreign aid expenditures by USAID. She tweeted about an upcoming meeting with House Foreign Affairs Committee members: "Heading to @HouseForeignGOP to ask how we can stop USAID's misuse of taxpayer dollars while ensuring America leverages effective foreign assistance programs. When the United States doesn't show up for allies & partners, China fills the void."
