Young Kim, U.S. Congresswoman representing California’s 40th district since 2021, posted a series of tweets on July 29, 2025, highlighting community achievements, international concerns, and legislative progress.
In a tweet posted at 01:15 UTC on July 29, Kim celebrated a local figure in the diving community: “So proud to celebrate a local legend at the Marguerite Aquatics Center in Mission Viejo! The newly dedicated Ron O’Brien Dive Well honors a man whose legacy shaped generations of divers. Thank you to USA Diving & the entire MAC community for making waves in & out of the pool.”
Later that day at 02:28 UTC, she addressed human rights issues abroad: “It’s tragic that executions at the hands of the Iran regime are on the rise. The United States cannot lose sight of the regime we’re dealing with. I stand with the Iranian people and against Tehran’s crimes.”
At 16:30 UTC on July 29, Kim reported progress on her legislative efforts for small businesses: “ICYMI: The House passed my bipartisan bill to slash burdensome regulations & help our federal government fight for small businesses. I will keep fighting to ensure this vital support is signed into law.”
