Congressman #CA13. Merced born & raised. Champion of bipartisan & common-sense solutions. #ValleyFirst. Personal Account.

Merced, CA
People are tired of empty promises and partisan rhetoric. They want to know that their government works for them. That’s what I’m bringing to Washington.

John Duarte spent this campaign claiming I’m not from this district, my truck isn’t my truck, and other BS. The truth? Only one candidate in this race actually lives in this district. And it’s not John.

Apparently John Duarte has a new definition of Pro-Choice…. We need a Congress that works hard for us, not insincere politicians saying absurd things. Join our campaign to put Congress back to work: secure.actblue.com/donate/jd…
NEW: President Trump is "functionally pro-choice," Republican @RepDuarteCA13 tells @mkraju. Hear the congressman explain his views on the landmark Dobbs decision as more Republicans grapple with how to message their views on reproductive rights. #InsidePolitics

It has been an honor to serve my hometown of Merced and the San Joaquin Valley communities that I love in the State Assembly for the past decade. This morning, I am announcing my candidacy for the newly formed Congressional District 13.

Seems like John Duarte has trouble with the definition of pro-choice. I tried to explain, but I don’t think he gets it. If I’m elected to Congress, I will vote to codify Roe v. Wade to protect women’s right to make their own health choices.

We need more people in public office from both sides of the aisle willing to put the country first. Not themselves not, their party. Thank you President Biden for your dedicated service to our nation.
The framers of our Constitution knew that our republic would endure only if our presidents have the character and honor to put duty ahead of self interest. President Biden deserves our gratitude for his decades of service to our nation and for his courageous decision today.

John Duarte just can’t tell the truth. His new “Democrats for Duarte” ad features Duarte and a bunch of registered Republicans. Valley families deserve a representative who knows how to tell the truth—that seems difficult for @Duarte4Congress. Read more: politico.com/newsletters/cal…

John Duarte recently told reporters he “didn’t know” which vote he took in favor of restricting abortion rights. How about his support for H.R. 26, which would throw doctors in prison for providing abortion care to patients? Do-Nothing Duarte is once again lying about his record.
