Golden State Today

Ami Bera, a member of the U.S. Congress representing California’s 6th district, shared a series of tweets highlighting global initiatives and significant political events. Bera, who has served since 2013, having replaced Dan Lungren, often uses his platform to discuss international and domestic policy issues.

On April 1, 2025, Bera tweeted about Kenya’s innovative approach to refugee support. "Kenya’s historic Shirika Plan reimagines how we support refugees by promoting self-reliance and creating benefits for both refugees and the communities that host them. I encourage other nations to follow Kenya’s model in advancing more sustainable refugee solutions worldwide."

Later on the same day, Bera addressed concerns about the U.S. State Department’s Global Engagement Center. "The Global Engagement Center at the State Department was formed to counter the messaging and diminish the influence of international terrorist organizations. The termination of this center creates a void in combatting disinformation and propaganda that will only worsen with the withdrawal of its operations."

On April 2, Bera congratulated Senator Cory Booker for his lengthy and impactful speech. "Congratulations to @SenBooker on your history-making speech! What Cory did took real strength. For over 25 hours, he uplifted the voices of those hurt by this Administration’s policies—not for attention, but out of purpose and commitment to our great nation. He reminded us of the importance of standing up and speaking out against injustice."
