Congresswoman Norma Torres Statement on Reelection to the 119th Congress.
Washington D.C. – Today, Congresswoman Norma J. Torres, a member of the House Administration Subcommittee on Elections and ranking member of the Oversight Subcommittee, released the following statement following the announcement of her reelection for the 119th Congress representing California’s 35th district.
"I am deeply humbled and grateful that the hardworking families of California's 35th district and the Inland Empire have entrusted me to continue representing them in the 119th U.S. Congress. This victory is a testament to the strength, resilience, and dedication of the people I am privileged to serve. We are building a brighter future for our children, communities, and nation.”
“Throughout my tenure in office, I've remained committed to the values that matter most to our families: creating good-paying jobs, ensuring access to quality education, and supporting policies that help working families thrive by bringing down the costs of living. I will always stand up for the rule of law and will never stop fighting to make sure our communities are safe, that America is secure, and that we honor those who serve when they return home. .”
“Let me be clear – I will never back down to bullies or special interests that prioritize profits over people or those who seek to divide us. I will always defend what is right, even when it is difficult or unpopular, and you will always know where I stand.”
“The national election results are disheartening. And while I am committed to upholding the principle of a peaceful transfer of power, let me be clear—I will not waver in my commitment to the Inland Empire. Our families deserve leaders who fight relentlessly for them, won’t turn their backs on them or settle for empty promises. I will fight to tackle the urgent challenges facing our communities, from tackling the rising costs of living to ensuring good-paying jobs. I’m ready to push back on anyone standing in the way of progress for our families. In the 119th Congress, I’m committed to ensuring the Inland Empire gets the investment and respect it deserves."
