Later that day, Rep. Matsui expressed criticism towards former President Donald Trump on social media. She remarked, “Attacking @AmeriCorps is proof that @realDonaldTrump does not understand what it means to serve.” Matsui emphasized the importance of national service as part of the country’s core values and noted her collaboration with prominent political figures such as Senator Chris Coons, Senator Chuck Schumer, Senator Martin Heinrich, and Representative Alma Adams, highlighting their collective opposition. More information is available in her tweet.
Finally, on April 24, 2025, Matsui marked a significant event in Sacramento with the groundbreaking of Sutter Health’s new Elk Grove Specialty Care Center. She highlighted the center’s potential to bring “much needed resources to the region—more appointments, physicians, and public health awareness.” These developments aim to enhance the community’s health services. Further details can be seen in her tweet.
These announcements reflect Matsui’s ongoing efforts to serve her constituents and engage with national and regional health initiatives.
