U.S. Representative Nanette D. Barragán, who has represented California’s 44th district since 2017, posted a series of updates on October 3, 2025, addressing health care concerns and community engagement efforts.
In a post from October 3, Barragán wrote: “I joined the @DemWomenCaucus to visit Sydney Kraemer Upcountry Regional Center that provides essential health care — but its services are at risk thanks to Trump and Republicans’ attacks on Americans’ health care that will raise costs. This Republican health care crisis will https://t.co/G163o0SyXF”.
Later that day, she added: “.@HouseDemocrats are fighting to protect YOUR health care. We hear you. Trump & Republicans ignored you. They shut down the government and walked away from trying to keep your health care costs down. https://t.co/3KZVDhDytz”.
Highlighting local employment initiatives, Barragán also promoted a jobs fair in her district: “Our annual Jobs Fair is TODAY! Join us to connect with employers and hear about job opportunities across #CA44. Scan the QR code, visit https://t.co/JlSjk90KS8, or call 310-831-1799 to let us know you will be attending. https://t.co/Xahh1scXKf”.
Barragán’s recent statements reflect ongoing debates over U.S. health policy and congressional actions regarding government funding and healthcare access. She has been an advocate for healthcare issues during her tenure in Congress representing California’s 44th District since replacing Janice Hahn in 2017 and continues to reside in Los Angeles, where she was born in 1976.
She holds a BA from UCLA (2000) and a JD from the University of Southern California (2005).
