Stop the madness. It’s time to end the CA High Speed (in reality slow speed) Rail nightmare.

Front page of the @californiapost Cali­for­nia Con­gress­man Vince Fong said “Cali­for­ni­ans are being over­taxed and over­reg­u­lated’’ and “the res­ults of Gavin New­som’s energy policies are … higher prices for work­ing fam­il­ies.’’ “Cali­for­nia drivers are being over­taxed and over­reg­u­lated at the pump — plain and simple,’’ Rep. Vince Fong (R-Central Val­ley) told The Post. “Cali­for­ni­ans can drive just a few miles across the bor­der into Ari­zona and see gas that’s nearly three dol­lars cheaper. That’s not a coin­cid­ence — that’s a policy fail­ure. “Sac­ra­mento has cre­ated a man­made energy crisis through excess­ive taxes, man­dates, and reg­u­la­tions that are driving up costs and shut­ting down needed refiner­ies and pipelines. The results of Gavin New­som’s energy policies are pre­dict­able: higher prices for working fam­il­ies.” nypost.com/2026/04/30/us-…

Here's what's going on with the California High-Speed Rail project, as project leaders face harsh feedback over the latest plan to keep it going. The project's inspector general and other state officials said it lacks transparency and violates state law:

The latest review of the California’s High Speed Rail Authority’s most recent business plan by the CA Legislative Analyst’s Office. “…fails to meet statutory requirements…” “…lacks transparency” “…funding inadequate” “…insufficient funding” “…very large funding gap” Full report: lao.ca.gov/handouts/trans…

California's fraud is endemic- Washington has to step in trib.al/tTufaXq

California’s energy crisis is nothing new and it certainly wasn’t an accident. It was self-inflicted by Gavin Newsom’s poor energy policies. We have the highest gas prices in the nation - nearly $2 over the national average - and 55% of the cost per gallon is a direct result of Sacramento’s policies. It’s no wonder Californians are driving to other states to buy gas! Thankfully, while Newsom pushes his failed none-of-the-above energy policy, President Trump is fighting to unleash our domestic energy dominance ⚡️🛢️🇺🇸

“The SEIU’s proposed wealth tax is the wrong idea at the worst possible time,” Fong said. “It drives people, investment, and jobs out of state, leaving behind deeper deficits and a weaker economy.” “A wealth tax won’t fix California’s problems, it will make them worse. Pushing out the very taxpayers and job creators California depends on only deepens budget instability and threatens long-term growth,” he told the Post. “California shouldn’t be chasing success away. We need policies that expand opportunity, grow our economy, and restore fiscal stability.

Tom Steyer’s policies aren’t just outside the mainstream - they’re completely out of touch with reality.👇

Democrat California Gubernatorial candidate Antonio Villaraigosa admits Democrats are to blame for California's affordability crisis. VILLARAIGOSA: “This state’s unaffordable…it happened under our watch…this wasn’t because of Donald Trump.”

“We need more production. Look at California’s energy crisis right now – it’s because of bad policies,” Fong said, taking aim at Newsom. … “Gavin Newsom has restricted domestic supply of oil and gas. He’s made California more dependent on foreign oil. He’s imposed taxes and fees and mandates that make California gasoline more expensive.” … “For every barrel produced, it’s replacing a barrel of oil imported into California from a foreign country,” Fong added.
