Later that day, he criticized House Republicans for their legislative actions.

In another tweet on May 12, Carbajal expressed gratitude towards healthcare professionals during National Nurses Week. He wrote “During National Nurses Week, we recognize the hardworking nurses and caregivers who work tirelessly every day to help their patients. Thank you for your dedication and commitment to providing lifesaving care.” This message underscored his appreciation for those working in healthcare services.
