Rep. Mike Levin, a U.S. Congressman representing California’s 49th district since 2019, addressed environmental and immigration issues in a series of posts on July 25, 2025.

In a tweet posted at 12:08 UTC, Levin wrote, “Millions of microfibers enter our water systems every day. @SenJeffMerkley and I want to create a layer of protection by ensuring new washing machines include a filter that traps synthetic fibers before they enter our waterways and our bodies.”

Later the same day at 13:11 UTC, Levin highlighted the economic contributions of immigrant workers in Orange County, stating, “Immigrant workers in Orange County are employed in critical industries like retail, agriculture and healthcare, contributing approximately $425 million in state and local taxes every year. Trump wants to deport them.

There is no vision for a thriving economy that does not”

At 14:19 UTC on July 25, Levin posted another message: “Saying the quiet part out loud…”
