In a post dated January 1, he stated: “As the clock winds down on 2025, I’m proud of the work my team and I have done to serve Sacramento County.

Later that day, Bera extended holiday wishes to his community. On January 1 he wrote: “Happy New Year, Sacramento County! Wishing everyone a fabulous 2026.”

Turning to foreign policy on January 3, Bera addressed recent developments regarding Venezuela. He posted: “Nicolás Maduro is an illegitimate leader who has inflicted hardship on the people of Venezuela. I hope this moment leads to a real democratic transition driven by the Venezuelan people. But the decision to launch military strikes without congressional input, support, or”.
