Mark DeSaulnier U.S. House of Representatives from California | Official U.S. House Headshot
Mark DeSaulnier, a U.S. Congressman representing California's 10th district, has voiced his viewpoints on various pressing matters through a series of tweets. Known for his ongoing service in Congress since 2015, DeSaulnier has been actively engaging with constituents on issues ranging from accountability of the Trump Administration to civil rights and freedom of speech.
On March 26, 2025, DeSaulnier tweeted a reminder about an online town hall scheduled to take place the same day. "Reminder that I’ll be hosting a live town hall today on Facebook around 3 p.m. PT to provide an update from our DC office on House Democrats’ work to hold the Trump Administration accountable." With this engagement, DeSaulnier aims to inform the public on efforts being undertaken to oversee the actions of the administration.
Later that day, DeSaulnier posted a brief but pointed tweet on March 26, 2025, calling for the resignation of Secretary Hegseth. "Secretary Hegseth must resign." The tweet links to further context regarding the reasons behind this demand.
On March 27, 2025, DeSaulnier expressed strong criticism of the Trump Administration concerning the arrest of Rumeysa Ozturk. "The ambush and arrest of Rumeysa Ozturk is something out of a dictatorship. Rumeysa is here legally and has not been charged with a crime. The Trump Administration is sending a message that free speech is not protected in their regime. She must be returned to Massachusetts." This tweet outlines DeSaulnier’s concerns that the administration’s actions threaten free speech, framing the arrest in the context of rights suppression.
