Mark DeSaulnier, U.S. Congressman representing California’s 10th district since 2015, recently posted a series of updates on his official Twitter account addressing political values, local federal funding, and community achievements.
On March 7, 2026, DeSaulnier shared a personal reflection: “I keep this reminder in my office that obedience does not equal patriotism. It feels more relevant now than ever, and I will continue to stand against Trump’s illegal regime-change war.”
Two days later, on March 9, he announced new federal support for local anti-trafficking efforts: “I was proud to deliver $500,000 in federal funding for the Healing and Justice for Labor Trafficking Survivors Project though the Contra Costa District Attorney’s office. This important project will increase the capacity of the DA’s Office to thoroughly investigate cases of labor”.
Later that same day, DeSaulnier highlighted an achievement by a constituent: “San Ramon resident Amber Ding’s painting, Tides of Nostalgia, has been displayed in the U.S. Capitol since she was named our 2025 Congressional Art Competition winner last spring, and if you’re a high school student living in California’s 10th Congressional District, next year it”.
DeSaulnier has represented California’s 10th district since replacing George Miller in Congress in 2015. Before his current role in Congress, he served on the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors from 1994 to 2006, then as a member of the California State Assembly from 2006 to 2008 and the California Senate from 2008 to 2015. Born in Lowell, Massachusetts in 1952 and currently residing in Concord at age 71, DeSaulnier graduated with a BA from College of the Holy Cross in 1974.
