Salud Carbajal, a U.S. Congressman representing California’s 24th district, recently shared his views on social media regarding several political and community issues. Carbajal has been in Congress since 2017, following his tenure on the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors.

On March 6, 2025, Carbajal expressed concerns over a proposed budget by Donald Trump and House Republicans. He stated that the budget aims to cut nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid while benefiting wealthy donors such as Elon Musk. Carbajal affirmed that “@HouseDemocrats are fighting back to save Medicaid and protect Americans.”

The following day, March 7, 2025, Carbajal criticized actions taken by the Trump Administration toward Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy. He described these actions as “shameful and completely unacceptable.” In solidarity with fellow Democrats, he emphasized the importance of supporting Ukraine by stating “We must always #StandWithUkraine.”

Later on March 7, Carbajal highlighted an upcoming event hosted by Veterans Services of San Luis Obispo County. The event titled “Honoring Her Service: Women Veterans Celebration and Resource Fair” was scheduled to take place at the San Luis Obispo Vets Hall from 11 AM to 3 PM. He announced this community engagement by stating “HAPPENING TOMORROW: Veterans Services of San Luis Obispo County is hosting their first Honoring Her Service: Women Veterans Celebration and Resource Fair!”
