Under Gavin Newsom, years of costly regulations, excessive taxes, and bureaucratic overreach have made it harder for families to afford gas, buy a home, and build a future in the Golden State. And the consequences don’t stop at California’s borders—these policies drive up costs for Americans nationwide. That’s why @J_Gallagher4CA and I are leading the fight to roll back costly California regulations that burden families and businesses, lower costs, and save billions of dollars.

Rep. Vince Fong, R-Calif., said voter ID "is basic election security that the vast majority of Americans support, and 36 states already require." "While opponents are resorting to lies and fearmongering, Proposition 39 is commonsense reform in a world where you need an ID to rent a car, stay at a hotel, open a bank account or board a flight," Fong told Fox News Digital. "The DOJ's recent voter fraud bust in California is exactly why these safeguards matter." foxnews.com/politics/house-d…

California’s wealth tax proposal undermines our entrepreneurial spirit Check out my latest oped. Vote NO on Prop. 40. “This misguided policy would cost jobs, encourage businesses and entrepreneurs to leave California, and undermine the innovation that powers the state’s economy — all while making California’s chronic budget problems worse.” “Proposition 40 is ultimately a tax on American enterprise, with ripple effects throughout the California economy that makes it harder to build the next generation of businesses here.” “What California needs is to address its accountability problem. Punishing success will not magically fix Sacramento’s fiscal mismanagement.” ocregister.com/2026/10/14/ca…

New veterans center coming to southwest Bakersfield, secretary of Veteran Affairs says “Today is a significant step forward for the veterans of Kern County and the Central Valley, and it has been a long time coming,” said Congressman Vince Fong. kget.com/news/local-news/new…

A great way to start the morning hanging out with our local veterans at their weekly breakfast at Zingo’s. Catching up with some long time friends. We are a grateful community and thankful for their service.

Last week we broke ground on the Friant-Kern Canal Pump Station Replacement Project — a critical investment in a canal serving the San Joaquin Valley. I fought to secure $540M for California water, including $200M for Friant-Kern. A reliable water supply supports our local economy and keeps communities growing. We’re building the infrastructure our region needs today to secure our water future for generations to come.

"Action to produce more American energy, lower costs, and strengthen California's energy security. The Bureau of Land Management just announced a December oil and gas lease sale covering 35,000 acres across Kern, Kings, Fresno, and San Luis Obispo counties. This is the kind of decisive federal action I've been pushing for that produces more energy right here at home, reduces our dependence on foreign oil, strengthens our energy supply, and helps lower energy costs for California families and businesses.” taftmidwaydriller.com/news/f…

Water is personal for us in the Central Valley. It’s the water that keeps family farms in business, sustains our homes, and supports local jobs. This week we broke ground on the Friant-Kern Canal Pump Station Replacement Project — strengthening water delivery infrastructure and enhancing a critical artery of California’s water system. Alongside David Valadao, we fought to secure $540 million for California water, including $200M for the Friant-Kern Canal. We are building and modernizing the infrastructure our families depend on today and securing our water future for generations to come. Let’s keep up the momentum!
