Jimmy Gomez: “This is a potential to actually have a real river in Los Angeles.”

I opposed this bill, especially as amended, because it expands the Department of Defense's authority into areas traditionally handled by civilian agencies.

I have and continue to sincerely apologize to my family, friends, and the people that I have the privilege to serve.

I am deeply sorry to my wife for the pain and embarrassment that I have brought into our lives.

I made personal mistakes outside my marriage. Although my actions were consensual in nature and haven’t violated the law or House Ethics rules, that doesn’t diminish the impact that these mistakes have made on those I care about the most.
