Kevin Kiley, a U.S. Congress member representing California’s 3rd district, has been vocal about his legislative priorities and criticisms of state processes through a series of tweets.

Born in Sacramento in 1985, he holds degrees from Harvard University and Yale University.
On December 11, 2024, Kevin Kiley announced his intention to introduce legislation aimed at terminating federal funding for California's high-speed rail project. He described it as a "disaster," expressing his disapproval through a tweet "I am introducing legislation to end all federal funding for California's 'high-speed' rail disaster."
Later that day, Kiley criticized the state's election process on social media. In collaboration with Representative Obernolte, he is working on legislation to set deadlines for election results. His tweet "The only way California's election process 'leads' is in humiliating our state and fostering distrust..." highlights ongoing concerns regarding vote counting efficiency.
On December 12, Kiley commented on the timeline required for certifying election results in California. He referred to the extended period taken as a "national embarrassment" that undermines trust in democracy. His tweet stated "Tomorrow is the big day...It only took 37 days to perform the elementary arithmetic of tallying ballots."
