”I’m proud of what we accomplished in 2018. Thank you to the 125,000 of you who voted for me to be your congressman, I’m excited to run again and finish what we started.

Over the past two years, we’ve talked to thousands of voters not about their personal politics — but about their personal health, safety, and financial dignity. About the sand mines in East County, the tariffs and taxes hurting our local farmers and manufacturers, the unemployment rate in our district that is double the rest of San Diego, seniors unable to refill their prescriptions and families unable to access healthcare, wildfires engulfing our homes and crumbling roads that increase commute times for working families and first responders.

Since the election, CA50 voters have felt the pain of not having a full-time representative. Our district deserves a Congressmember who can fully focus on the needs of constituents.

That’s why I’m running again, but this time will be different. More inclusive in its approach. More local in focus. Even more heart than before.



I’m ready to pour my heart and soul into this race, community organize, listen, learn, and become the representative CA50 deserves.

Here’s to renewing our journey in the new year.”
