U.S. Representative Salud Carbajal (D-CA-24) issued the statement below following the release of President Trump’s 2026 budget.

“I strongly oppose President Trump’s proposed budget, which asks for unprecedented cuts to vital programs that many Central Coast residents depend on,” said Rep. Carbajal. “Slashing funding for health care, education, food assistance, and more will hurt families who are already struggling to pay their bills. We need a budget that helps the American people, not one that pulls the rug out from under them.”
