A year after the devastating fires, our communities continue to rebuild as the battle for federal aid goes on. Thank you to the firefighters and emergency responders who protected our communities, and the residents and community leaders who stepped up to help their neighbors out.

Rep. Gil Cisneros@cisneros.house.govJan 7(source)

Our Armed Forces deserve to keep their families together and feel safe in their communities. That’s why I introduced legislation that will protect military families from deportations and separations that harm our servicemembers and jeopardize mission readiness.

Small business concerns should be heard by the SBA Office of Advocacy, including on tariffs. A letter to Congress shared submissions on tariffs are not tracked. My bill to expand the Office of Advocacy’s hotline to receive and report information on tariffs ensures small business are not ignored.

I am deeply disturbed by the outrageously violent tactics that this Administration has used against our communities. Weaponizing ICE sows fear and incites chaos. I am monitoring the news from the horrific fatal shooting out of Minneapolis. www.nxsmediawire.com/news/shootin...

Having overseen the largest childcare system in the country at the Department of Defense, I understand the difficulties that families face when it comes to childcare. The freezing of these resources is nothing more than a vindictive and political act and children are going to be made to suffer.

Rep. Gil Cisneros@cisneros.house.govJan 7(source)

Trump is more concerned about foreign oil than about taking care of American families. As childcare cost continue to rise across the nation, this is just another hardship this administration is forcing upon the American people. www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

Trump targets handful of blue states with $10 billion cut to child care funds

Officials in California, New York and other Democrat-controlled states are preparing to sue.

This was not a law enforcement operation like they have claimed. It was about grabbing oil and trying to get their hands on Venezuelan resources.

Rep. Gil Cisneros@cisneros.house.govJan 6(source)

Happy Three Kings Day! I wish all those celebrating in CA-31 a wonderful and peaceful holiday. May the gifts of the three wise men bring you joy and prosperity.

5 years ago, we witnessed the most violent insurrection at the Capitol in modern history, perpetuated by the President’s senseless and disgraceful rhetoric. Our democracy must never be taken for granted & we must work everyday to keep our country safe and our democracy alive.

Senator Mark Kelly defended our country as a Captain in the U.S. Navy and is continuing to defend our country as a U.S. Senator. The political retaliation from the Trump admin is cowardly and shameful. I stand with our country and Senator Kelly. Don’t give up the ship.

Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) fired back at Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over his threat to demote the senator’s military rank on Monday following the Pentagon’s investigation, saying he “will fight this with everything I’ve got.”

Statement from New Dem National Security Working Group Chair @cisneros.house.gov.

Rep. Gil Cisneros@cisneros.house.govJan 3(source)

This was never about stopping the flow of drugs. He lies when he says 97% of drugs into the US came from Venezuela. The President has gone to war without the approval of Congress. He needs to come to Congress and explain his actions.

Rep. Gil Cisneros@cisneros.house.govJan 3(source)

I will never doubt the capabilities of our US military joint force. It is unmatched. But their capabilities are not what is in question. My concern is the President saying the United States will run Venezuela and take their oil.

Rep. Gil Cisneros@cisneros.house.govJan 3(source)

This administration has continued to lie, bypass Congress and the American people, and act unilaterally without authorization. The Administration must immediately brief Congress on the legal justification for the kidnapping as well as a plan to maintain regional stability.

Rep. Gil Cisneros@cisneros.house.govJan 3(source)

This shortsighted and reckless attack continues to feed the President’s goal of regime change and controlling Venezuelan oil, no matter the cost.

Rep. Gil Cisneros@cisneros.house.govJan 3(source)

The President has lost his mind. There was no approval from Congress, let alone any notification. Maduro is an illegitimate leader, but what was the justification for kidnapping him and his wife?

Rep. Gil Cisneros@cisneros.house.govJan 1(source)

Happy New Year, CA-31! May 2026 bring us hope, light, and peace in our communities. I hope everyone has a great time ringing in the new year. Stay safe and cheers to the new year.

Rep. Gil Cisneros@cisneros.house.govJan 1(source)

As we close out the year, I am proud of all the work we have done to strengthen our district, bring our community together, and represent CA-31’s voice in Congress. From legislation to dollars brought back to the district, it was an honor to serve you and our San Gabriel Valley family in 2025.

Rep. Gil Cisneros@cisneros.house.govDec 26(source)

Happy Kwanzaa! May this celebration of culture, community, and heritage inspire unity, purpose, and joy in your life. To all who celebrate in CA-31 and beyond, have a joyous Kwanzaa!
