In Their Words

What they have said, on the record

“Americans want lower costs, safer communities, and economic stability, not more taxpayer dollars wasted on fearmongering and political stunts. The Trump Administration has its priorities completely backwards.”
Congresswoman Torres Calls Out GOP Led Reconciliation Package for Prioritizing Political Theater Over Lowering CostsJun 9, 2026 · Official · Office of Congresswoman Norma Torres (press release) · source
“Working families are being crushed by the rising cost of living, yet Republicans are pushing another reckless spending package that does absolutely nothing to lower costs for everyday Americans. Instead of investing in affordable housing, healthcare, education, and economic relief, they are writing more blank checks for ICE and CBP to abuse the law and our Constitution without consequences.”
Congresswoman Torres Calls Out GOP Led Reconciliation Package for Prioritizing Political Theater Over Lowering CostsJun 9, 2026 · Official · Office of Congresswoman Norma Torres (press release) · source
“The Inland Empire is powered by hardworking warehouse workers, truck drivers, and families who keep our economy moving every day. These families are already struggling with skyrocketing rent, groceries, and gas prices due to Trump's illegal Iran War and tariffs. Proposed Republican cuts to affordable housing, rental assistance, and homelessness programs are completely backwards and will make things worse. We should be helping families stay housed and lowering costs, not making life harder for people already struggling to get by.”
Congresswoman Torres Warns FY27 Transportation and Housing Funding Bill Falls Short for Inland Empire's Working FamiliesMay 22, 2026 · Official · Office of Congresswoman Norma Torres (press release) · source
