Where Min stands

Gun Violence Prevention

There is no place in America that is safe from the specter of gun violence, even here in Orange County: whether it’s a church in Laguna Woods, an office park in Orange, a biker bar in Trabuco Canyon, or a hair salon in Seal Beach. We are the only developed nation in the world with anywhere close to this level of gun violence, and I refuse to let this be normalized.

Housing and Homelessness

The high cost of housing is the biggest challenge that California– and the Orange County area I represent– is facing. The top reason people are leaving our state, and the Number 1 driver for homelessness, is the high cost of housing.

Jobs, wages & cost of living

Artificial intelligence is developing at an extraordinary pace, and Congress needs to understand and address the real-world consequences of that transformation.

Democracy and the Rule of Law

What is happening right now in America is unprecedented and it is terrifying. Last April, I had the opportunity to sit down with a Turkish-American family to celebrate the end of Ramadan.

Families & communities

Families across the country are watching their insurance premiums skyrocket—or losing coverage altogether—because their communities are increasingly exposed to wildfires, floods, hurricanes, and other disasters.

Priorities

I ran for Congress because, as a first-generation, Korean American, I want my kids to grow up in the same California that attracted my parents and so many immigrants like them to come plant roots here—where everyone has a fair shot at the American Dream, where women have autonomy over their own bodies, we prioritize our environment and the safety of our children, and where we maintain the spirit of openness and innovation that makes America so special.

Priorities

We are grateful to be raising our three young children in Irvine. We love Orange County’s vibrance, diversity, and neighborliness, and of course the weather is amazing. To Jane and me, this district represents the very best of California – and America.

Position history

Healthcare

  1. Oct. 15, 2026 (in the Southern California News Group candidate questionnaire)
    In the longer run, we must do all we can to ensure that every American has access to quality healthcare. Healthcare today should be seen as a basic human right. To ensure this, we must do more to lower costs across the system without dampening the amazing innovation that has enabled us to live longer and treat diseases and conditions once viewed as untreatable.

Governance

  1. Oct. 15, 2026 (in the Southern California News Group candidate questionnaire)
    At a bare minimum, we should require that this data be strongly protected against breaches or hacks, and that strong privacy protections are in place to protect against abuse, including requiring judicial warrants before any government agencies are allowed to access any of this data.
