Bio Jimmy Gomez is a central Los Angeles Democrat with a labor background. He is a reliable vote for the Democratic consensus on foreign policy, and his Ways and Means seat gives him influence on trade and tariffs.
Ukraine Record
- Voted yes on every Ukraine aid package.
- Has signed onto Democratic Ukraine letters.
- Not a headline Ukraine voice but a reliable vote.
Advocacy Insight
- Ask them to: Use his Ways and Means seat to support tariffs and trade sanctions on Russia, and sign onto the Ukrainian Adjustment Act (H.R. 3104), which protects Ukrainians in the U.S. from deportation.
- Why it works with them: Trade and tariff leverage fits his committee role. Labor and worker protection framings fit his base.
- Your connection: If you are in central or east LA, tell him Los Angeles has a Ukrainian community that needs both trade leverage against Russia and worker protections at home.
- Avoid: Don't over-explain the basics. Ask for specific committee actions.
Without this bill, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians who fled the war and built lives in the U.S. face deportation back to an active war zone. This is the single most urgent protection for Ukrainians in America.

Hi, my name is [YOUR NAME], a constituent from [YOUR CITY/ZIP]. I'm calling to urge Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] to cosponsor H.R. 3104, the Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2025. Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians fled Russia's invasion and are now living in the U.S. on temporary status. They cannot safely return to an active war zone. H.R. 3104 gives them a path to permanent residency. It's bipartisan, it's targeted, and it's the right thing to do. Will Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] cosponsor H.R. 3104? Thank you.
Read this script naturally. It is a guide, not a word-for-word requirement. Staffers appreciate callers who sound like constituents, not robots.
