Congressman Mike Thompson

Proud to nominate seven local students to our nation’s top military service academies. Congratulations Isabella Hazel, Diego Rodriguez, Clare Cuneo, Charles Im, Owen Rainwater, Quinn Dixon, and Atticus Keys! Your hard work and dedication earned you this honor.

Glad to see a judge’s recent decision to halt President Trump’s unethical slush fund for January 6 rioters and MAGA insiders. I introduced legislation to impose a 100 percent tax on any payments from this fund because no insurrectionist or rioter should receive the hard-earned tax dollars of the American people.

Thank you Liz Smith with Charsaw Farms and Peter Rumble with the Napa County Farm Bureau for the tour of a beautiful lavender farm and to discuss the diversity of the agriculture in our district. Lavender is a critical crop for our farmers given its drought resistance, importance to pollinators, and the numerous products our farming community can produce from it.

Happy Pride Month! Pride is a time to remember love is love, no matter who you are or who you love. We’ve made progress, but the fight isn’t over. This month let's stand united against attacks on our LGBTQ+ community.

In Congress, the Gun Violence Prevention Task Force is leading the efforts to pass legislation that will protect our communities and help save lives. Every day, 100 Americans are killed by someone using a gun. Thoughts and prayers are never enough — gun violence demands action.

Four years ago today, a gunman opened fire in the Natalie Building at Saint Francis Hospital in Tulsa, Oklahoma, killing four people, including three hospital staff. Today, we remember their lives and the immense loss felt by their families, colleagues, and community. We honor their service and recommit to ending the epidemic of gun violence in our country.

Our community is safer when we invest in the best equipment, talent, and resources to respond to emergencies. I'm proud to have secured over $1 million for a new emergency operations center in Rio Vista. Thank you to the local leaders who helped identify the need for this funding and to our first responders!

Congratulations to Jacobo and María Ángeles on their inspiring exhibition at Sonoma Botanical Garden. Your talent, craftsmanship, and commitment to preserving artistic traditions are evident in every stunning piece. Thank you for sharing your work with our community!

The Rianda House Senior Activity Center opened its doors almost twenty years ago and has become an integral part of our community, providing programs, services, and resources for our senior population. As we conclude Older Americans Month, we thank the Rianda House and its incredible staff and volunteers for all the great work that they do!

Good to see the court temporarily blocked the President’s political slush fund. I introduced legislation to impose a 100 percent tax on any payments from this fund because no insurrectionist or rioter should receive the hard-earned tax dollars of the American people.
