Later that day, he posted another message referencing communications from Covered California: “As Covered California letters hit mailboxes alerting insured individuals of drastic price hikes to their health insurance, remember that instead of coming back to D.C. to work on this issue, House Republicans disappeared.” This statement was made as notices regarding possible premium increases were sent out to policyholders.
On October 18, Levin acknowledged a significant historical event: “The 250th anniversary of the United States Marine Corps is an extraordinary milestone. It should unite us in pride and gratitude.
Unfortunately, reports confirming that artillery will be fired over Interstate 5 — requiring full freeway and rail closures — have caused” The post references planned celebrations for the Marine Corps’ anniversary involving artillery fire and associated transportation disruptions.
Levin has served in Congress since replacing Darrell Issa in 2019. He was born in Inglewood in 1978 and resides in San Juan Capistrano. His academic background includes a BA from Stanford University (2001) and a JD from Duke University (2005).
