Garamendi and Indivisible Rally on May Day in Fairfield to Oppose Trump Agenda

FAIRFIELD, CA – Today, U.S. Representative John Garamendi (D-CA-08) welcomed Indivisible’s May Day Hands-Off rally at his Fairfield district office to stand in solidarity with constituents opposing President Trump’s dangerous agenda. Congressman Garamendi issued the following statement:

“I said from the beginning of Donald Trump's presidency that we need to take to the streets and resist every action from his Administration. Today, we did just that.

"I am proud to stand with my constituents who have decided to make their voices heard against Trump's dangerous and unconstitutional actions. I thank Indivisible for working collaboratively with me and my staff to make this Hands-Off demonstration to protest Trump a reality. We have been in close contact with the organizers, we opened our offices to them, welcomed them with refreshments and I was able to fly back to California following votes to join in their efforts.

"I have been working every day in Congress to push back against the Trump agenda. This week, I introduced several amendments and voted NO on Trump's reckless and cruel budget reconciliation bill that pays for tax cuts for billionaires by cutting from critical services like Medicaid, Social Security, and school lunch programs.

"Indivisible and the rallygoers are doing exactly what we all need to do – stand up and make our voices heard. I thank them for their efforts and will continue to support and encourage citizens standing up to the Trump-Musk cuts.”

Representative Garamendi continues to fight in Congress to protect vital programs and oppose efforts that undermine constitutional principles and the well-being of working families
