Other facts

I am honored to represent Napa County in Congress, where I have one agenda: listening to the folks at home about the opportunities and challenges we face, fighting for our priorities in Washington, coming up with solutions, and returning home with results. As your representative I will continue working to create jobs and strengthen our middle class, bring fiscally responsible solutions to the federal government, protect Social Security and Medicare, and make sure our veterans and military families receive the benefits they’ve earned. I was born, grew up and still live in the Napa Valley. My wife is a nurse at St. Helena Hospital where my mother, father, our youngest son, one granddaughter and I were born. That son is a Deputy Sheriff here and our family is committed to our beautiful area. It is the highest honor to represent and work on behalf of my friends and neighbors and I look forward to continuing our work to strengthen our communities and deliver solutions to the challenges we face. Working together we will make our district a better place to live, work, raise a family and start a business. I would be honored to have your support on Election Day.
