Correa, J. Luis

Lou Correa represents California's 46th congressional district, which covers majority-Hispanic areas of Orange County including Santa Ana and Anaheim. Since joining the House in 2017, he has brought a professional background as an investment banker, real estate broker, and college instructor to his legislative work. Before his election to Congress, he served in the California State Senate for eight years, representing the 34th district.

In the House, Correa holds significant roles on the Committee on Homeland Security and the Committee on the Judiciary. He serves as the Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Border Security and Enforcement, where he focuses on immigration and national security issues. His committee work also extends to subcommittees dealing with counterterrorism, intelligence, and the administrative state.

Correa's legislative record reflects a focus on civil rights and consumer protection, evidenced by his introduction of the Deceptive Downsizing Prohibition Act. While he maintains a strong pro-choice voting record, he has occasionally broken with his party on economic issues, such as voting against certain antitrust fee modernizations. His sponsored legislation includes a variety of topics ranging from business tax credits to canine kenneling for Customs and Border Protection.
