Rep. Young Kim Voted “No,” Took the Dough on Key Infrastructure and Jobs Investments

Voters in CA-39 deserve better than a hypocrite who votes against her own community

Vulnerable Republican Rep. Young Kim once again voted “no” and took the dough by voting against the landmark INVEST Act, which contains critical investments in infrastructure and job creation, including millions directly for Rep. Kim’s district at her own request.

Take a look at where the investment that Rep. Kim voted against will be headed:

  • $18 million for the California State Route 57/60 Confluence Chokepoint Relief Program in Los Angeles County

When Rep. Kim is home in the district this recess, don’t be surprised if she spends time touting the very investment she voted against. Just like when Rep. Kim voted against direct relief funds for her community in the American Rescue Plan, she voted no, but was all too happy to take the dough.

“Rep. Kim is so out-of-touch with her district that she is repeatedly voting against needed investments in her community in an attempt to score cheap political points,” said DCCC Spokesperson Adrian Eng-Gastelum. “Families in California’s 39th district have Democrats to thank for the good-paying jobs and much-needed infrastructure investments headed their way — not Rep. Kim, who stood against them when it counted.”
