Statement from Rep. Norma Torres on Recent Abuse Allegations Involving Labor Leader Cesar Chavez.
The January 6 plaque honors the U.S. Capitol Police who risked their lives to defend our democracy.
Yet it sits in the Capitol basement, out of public view.
We won’t let their sacrifice be hidden. The American people deserve to see the truth.
I met today with the Port of Long Beach to discuss key priorities for our region and the nation. From strengthening our supply chains to investing in infrastructure and supporting a strong workforce, it’s critical that we continue building partnerships that keep our economy moving.
Had a wonderful meeting with Inland Action to talk about the Inland Empire’s top priorities, from infrastructure and supply chains to healthcare and housing. I’m proud to keep fighting for our communities, bringing resources, lowering costs, and creating more opportunities for our families.
Great meeting today with local leaders from Eastvale to discuss priorities for their growing community. I’m proud to work alongside city officials to deliver resources, strengthen infrastructure, and ensure families in the Inland Empire have what they need to thrive.
#TeamTorres was honored to attend the Eagle Scout Court of Honor for Dresden Rose, an outstanding young leader in our community. Achieving Eagle Scout reflects years of dedication, leadership, and service. Congratulations on this remarkable accomplishment!
Too many Americans are skipping meals, delaying having kids, or going into debt just to afford healthcare. Yet Republicans in Congress are refusing to act. We must put people first, lower drug prices, expand coverage, and make healthcare truly affordable for everyone.
Tax season is heating up as we approach Tax Day! Need help with your 2025 tax return or IRS casework?
Stop by #CPPVITA at the Pomona Public Library. #TeamTorres will be signing people up at our table every Saturday, 11:00 AM – 3:30 PM.
No community in America should have to say they’re “prepared” for violence simply for being who they are.
What happened at Temple Israel is deeply disturbing. Houses of worship should be places of peace, not fear.
We must stand united against antisemitism and all forms of hate.
Thank you to the Ontario High School Civic Learning Club for inviting #TeamTorres to your Civic Learning Fair! Team Torres had a great time helping students pre-register and register to vote.
The “Big Ugly” math doesn’t add up for the Inland Empire.
The promise: a tiny tax cut.
The reality: record-high gas prices.
The “Big Ugly” bill promised to put money back in your pocket, but rising prices at the pump have already taken it back and then some.
The housing crisis demands urgency.
As the National Association of Home Builders warns about provisions being stripped from the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, Congress should be strengthening housing solutions, not leaving them behind.
Families need real relief now.
The U.S. military burned through $11.3 billion in munitions in the first 6 days of this war.
But when it comes to Americans struggling with housing costs, Donald Trump says “no one gives a [bleep]”?
Millions of families do. The only one who doesn’t is Trump.
The Trump admin ran on “mass deportations” but now tells GOP members to avoid talking about it ahead of the midterms.
Fear of voters catching on > following the law.
We won’t forget: families deserve safety, not political cover-ups.
This is a betrayal of American trust. Trump’s DOGE put Social Security data and benefits at risk. That’s exactly why I introduced the Repairing Social Security After Trump and DOGE Act last year, to protect seniors, people with disabilities, and every American who relies on SSA.
#TeamTorres is hosting a FREE tax prep clinic through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program at the Pomona Public Library. Volunteers from can help with 2025 and prior-year returns.
🗓 Saturdays | 11:00 AM – 3:30 PM
My staff will also be there to assist with IRS casework.
On International Women’s Day, we celebrate the strength, resilience, and leadership of women across the world. As the only Guatemalan-born Member of Congress, I’m proud to stand with women everywhere who are breaking barriers, lifting up their communities, and paving the way for the next generation.
Kristi Noem is out. Who’s next?
The chaos in this administration is so predictable, we made it easier for you to keep up.
Place your bets.
Exciting news! Groundbreaking for the Arrow Route Sewer Main Project is underway.
I’m proud to have helped secure nearly $1M to replace the aging sewer main and failing septic tanks, protecting residents from harmful bacteria and viruses and strengthening our community’s infrastructure.
