Kevin Mullin (CA-15) led a national coalition of lawmakers to submit several requests as part of the Fiscal Year 27 House Appropriations process, encompassing a wide range of issues including climate resiliency, clean energy, election integrity, and public health. “Congress has a responsibility not only to respond to today’s challenges, but to prepare our communities for the risks and opportunities of tomorrow,” Rep. Mullin said. “My appropriations requests this year would invest in cutting-edge clean energy technologies, strengthen emergency preparedness and public health systems, and protect the integrity of our democracy. These priorities reflect both the needs I hear from my constituents and the urgency of the moment—from adapting to climate challenges and emerging health threats, to safeguarding our elections. I will continue working to ensure the federal government delivers real, forward-looking solutions for communities in California and across the country.” These types of submissions by members of Congress are considered as part of the federal budget development process and will be considered by the House Appropriations Committee. Rep. Mullin led his colleagues in championing 30 priorities for FY27, including: Election Integrity Safeguarding Elections from Federal Interference – Prohibit the Department of Justice from bringing lawsuits that block the counting of ballots. Environment &amp; Clean Energy Marine Carbon Dioxide Removal –&nbsp; Robust funding for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to fight climate change by developing technologies to remove carbon from the atmosphere using the marine environment.

In a letter to U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi and Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon, who leads the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division, the lawmakers outlined California’s robust election system and urged the DOJ to refrain from conduct that lowers voter participation or intimidates voters.&nbsp;&nbsp; “While we believe this decision is unnecessary and unjustified, California’s election administration represents the gold standard for the nation, and we welcome fair and impartial DOJ observation and monitoring,” the lawmakers wrote. “However, we urge you to respect the free and fair election already underway and refrain from further engaging in conduct that seeks to lower voter participation, intimidate voters, or undermine voters’ trust in the outcome.”&nbsp; The Trump Administration, without any evidence, has made widespread false claims about the integrity of states’ elections and has pulled back its duty to enforce civil rights protections. The California lawmakers emphasized the need to protect eligible voters, including naturalized U.S. citizens, from voter suppression tactics.&nbsp; They wrote: “let us be crystal clear: We will not tolerate federal interference in Californians’ right to vote, including by the Department engaging in any form of intimidation of immigrant communities.”&nbsp; The letter was co-led by Rep.
