Rep. Salud Carbajal, U.S. Congressman representing California’s 24th district since 2017, addressed a range of national and local issues in a series of tweets posted on June 3, 2026.
In his first tweet at 15:36 UTC, Carbajal emphasized ongoing efforts to protect the Central Coast from federal actions and oil-related risks, stating, “Senator Schiff and I will continue pressing for rigorous oversight and accountability to ensure the Central Coast remains protected from extreme federal overreach and future oil disasters. No to Offshore Oil Drilling!”
Later that day at 18:12 UTC, he criticized former President Trump’s economic policies, writing, “From reckless tariffs to the illegal war with Iran, this is an economic disaster Trump created single-handedly. While the American people are suffering, the President continues to turn a blind eye.”
At 21:21 UTC on June 3, Carbajal commented on congressional action regarding military engagement in Iran, “After almost three months, Republicans finally voted with Democrats on a War Powers Resolution to rein in Trump’s unauthorized war with Iran. Now, it’s time to end this illegal war. Our service members and the American people have been through enough.”
Salud Carbajal has represented California’s 24th District since succeeding Lois Capps in Congress in 2017. Before his tenure in Congress, he served on the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors from 2005 to 2017.
