Nanette D. Barragán, a U.S. Congress member representing California's 44th district since 2017, recently shared a series of posts on social media addressing various issues. The tweets cover topics ranging from the impact of federal funding decisions to local community initiatives and cultural celebrations.
On January 29, 2025, Barragán expressed concerns about the Trump administration's federal funding shutdown, stating that it "will delay affordable housing projects, threaten services for the unhoused and new home ownership." She noted that during a recent housing roundtable with the San Francisco Federal Home Loan Bank, experts discussed the need for increased support in this area. "The Trump federal funding shutdown will delay affordable housing projects, threaten services for the unhoused and new home ownership."
Later that day, Barragán held a press conference in San Pedro alongside Councilmember Tim McOsker and local community healthcare providers. The event aimed to address concerns regarding what she termed as the Trump Administration’s "funding freeze" and its implications on healthcare services. "Held a press conference today in #SanPedro with Councilmember @TimMcOsker and local community health care providers to talk about the Trump Administration’s funding freeze and #RepublicanRipoff"
