Welcome to Catch Up With Young Kim, my weekly e-newsletter to get you the latest on my work for you in Congress.

My team and I are here to serve you. If you ever need assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out to my office. I also encourage you to receive real-time updates on my work for you in Congress by following me on Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and Instagram.

Our community is home to over 40 community health centers that provide quality care to our communities and meet patients’ needs. I am proud to receive the National Association of Community Health Centers' Distinguished Community Health Center Advocate Award and am fighting to expand health care access for my constituents. I appreciate The Coalition of Orange County Community Health Centers for presenting me with this award.

The last thing Americans need when planning a trip are costly, unexpected fees. I'm proud to lead the Hotel Fees Transparency Act, a bipartisan bill with U.S. Rep. Kathy Castor, Congressman Russell Fry, & Congressman Kevin Mullin to make costs transparent so families can better budget.

I had a productive meeting with the CalOptima team on how we can work together to ensure coverage for our community. Ensuring access to quality care is a top priority of mine in Congress. 

I toured Biomedical Science and Technology Academy in Chino Valley USD to learn more about their amazing, cutting-edge curriculum that helps students become future leaders in STEM fields. I appreciate all that you do to support our students.

We appreciate all the groups who helped make Valentines for Veterans such a hit this year!
Thank you Veterans for serving our country and protecting our freedoms. We hope that everyone had a Happy Valentine's Day!

OC Mosquito and Vector Control District is doing great work to protect public health including district education, preventing vector diseases, and controlling mosquito populations. Thank you for your hard work!

Make no mistake, the United States does not recognize the "One China Principle" and will not allow the CCP to silence Taiwan’s voice. I am proud to lead a bipartisan, bicameral resolution against the CCP's unjust use of United Nations General Assembly resolution 2758 and stand with Taiwan.

It was great meeting with Orange County Goodwill’s Lake Forest Center to discuss their continued contributions and how they plan to expand in South Orange County. This year, Goodwill Industries Orange County celebrates their 100th anniversary of serving our community!  

Thank you for the opportunity to join the one-day Labor Trafficking Awareness Training for civilian employees of Orange County. This seminar is very important for keeping Californians safe! I’ll keep working at the federal level to ensure our law enforcement and first responders on the ground have the tools they need to combat human trafficking.

I had so much fun at the Villa Park Community Services Foundation’s Lunar New Year Celebration featuring amazing performers and the Vietnamese Student Club of Villa Park High School performing an incredible traditional Lion Dance!

When the United States doesn't show up, the Chinese Communist Party will move in fast. I'm working to protect our national security and ensure America leads on the world stage.

Team Young enjoyed celebrating the grand opening of Orange Modern Dentistry and learning about their innovative work, including molding and installing crowns in the same day!

I am grateful that the South Orange County Communitty College District stopped by my office to discuss how we can provide the most effective education to the bright young minds of our community. I appreciate all of your work at Saddleback College in my district and look forward to our continued work together.

I remain focused on delivering for my community and finding commonsense solutions to the pressing crises facing Californians and all Americans. I'm proud of my record of effectiveness and bipartisanship and will keep working across the aisle to get things done.

“All great change in America begins at the dinner table.” – Ronald Reagan
On Monday we honored U.S. presidents who have stepped up to lead our country, inspire thoughtful conversations, drive change, and pave the way for the next generation. I hope everyone had a Happy Presidents Day!

Have a great weekend!

Sincerely,

Young Kim
