Rep. Ken Calvert, a seasoned United States Congressman representing California's 41st District since 1993, shared several updates via Twitter on April 7, 2025, addressing a range of topics from sports recognition at the national level to statewide economic and public policy issues, as well as encouraging local artistic talent.

In his first tweet of the day at 18:02 UTC, Rep. Calvert expressed his enthusiasm over the Los Angeles Dodgers being honored by President Trump at the White House. He noted, "It's wonderful to see the @Dodgers celebrated today by President Trump at the White House! Congratulations!”

Later, at 21:16 UTC, Rep. Calvert addressed the issue of gasoline prices in California. He attributed the high costs to policies passed by Democratic lawmakers in Sacramento, rather than price gouging by energy companies. He argued for changes to these policies to alleviate financial burdens on families, stating, “Independent study after study has found that California's high gas prices are the result of radical policies passed by Democrats in Sacramento and not due to gouging by energy companies. We need to provide families with relief by changing these expensive policies and high taxes.”

In his final tweet at 22:47 UTC, Rep. Calvert reminded students in his district to submit their entries for the Congressional Art Competition, emphasizing the nearing deadline. He reiterated the opportunity for participation, saying, “Students in the 41st District have until the end of this week to submit their artwork for the 43rd Annual Congressional Art Competition! It's not too late to submit your masterpiece!”
