Mark DeSaulnier, a member of the U.S. Congress representing California’s 10th district, recently took to social media to express his views on several pressing issues. DeSaulnier has been an advocate for individuals with disabilities and continues to voice concerns about educational policies and fiscal matters.

On June 4, 2025, DeSaulnier participated in a hearing by the Education and Workforce Democrats where he questioned Education Secretary McMahon regarding her initiatives that allegedly undermine resources essential for students with disabilities. He stated, “Today at an @EdWorkforceDems hearing, I questioned Education Secretary McMahon about her efforts to gut resources students with disabilities rely on to thrive in the classroom.” DeSaulnier emphasized his long-standing commitment to advocating for disabled individuals.

Later that day, DeSaulnier posted a brief tweet simply stating “Shameful.” The context or subject of this remark was not specified in the post.

On June 5, 2025, DeSaulnier commented on a budgetary issue concerning the GOP’s proposed budget bill. He warned of its potential consequences on healthcare access and national debt levels. He noted that “House Democrats have been warning that the GOP’s reckless budget bill would strip millions of Americans of their health care and rack up our national debt.” According to him, the Congressional Budget Office reported that the bill could increase the national debt by $2.4 trillion.

Mark DeSaulnier has served as a U.S. Congressman since replacing George Miller in 2015. His career also includes time in both chambers of California’s legislature and local government roles in Contra Costa County.
