Rep. Mike Levin secured a fourth term representing coastal North County in Congress.

Levin secured a fourth term representing coastal North County in Congress. With his party in the minority in both chambers, he said he is ready and willing to reach across the aislethis month, but it was a hard-fought victory in his historically purple district, which spans Orange and San Diego counties. He won handily in the San Diego portion of the constituency.While the Democrat held on to his seat, his party is in the minority in D.C.

“I do think there are areas of common ground, and I'll continue to be focused on them. One that comes to mind is lowering costs. I think everybody that was campaigning, whether Republican, Democratic, we were all committed to finding common sense ways to lower costs for the American consumer,” Levin said.He acknowledges it is"not going to be as easy, obviously to get things across the finish line.

“We may have some different ideas. I'm worried about things like tariffs, the impact that they'll have on prices, but we know that we have to rein in inflation. And we've got to work together in a bipartisan way to do it,” Levin said.“I know that my colleagues across the aisle, many of them would advocate for a national abortion ban. And we've got to do everything we can to try to stop them. But it's going to be very difficult with the trifecta that they have,” said Levin.
