Steve Garvey

Steve Garvey | REPUBLICAN

Over 50 years ago, I came to California for the first time. For the next 20 years, I played for the Los Angeles Dodgers and the San Diego Padres in front of millions of fans watching on TV and cheering in the stands. At that time, California was the heartbeat of America, now it's just a murmur. Years of bad policies have led to the highest cost of living in the country, rising violent crime, out-of-control homelessness, and failing schools. Politicians have let all Californians down. When I'm your Senator, we will tackle homelessness by getting serious about mental health, drug addiction treatment, and the cost of housing. We will fight crime by enforcing our laws and punishing criminals. We will once again have the best schools in the country and provide our children with a first-class education. We will create good jobs, support small businessowners, and bring down the cost of living so every dollar goes farther for your family. By working together, we will solve our problems with common-sense solutions, and not the same old tired politics. It's time for political courage and we deserve leaders who will represent your interests, not their own. California allowed me to live my dream of playing in the Major Leagues, and you deserve to live yours. I hope to earn your support, so we can work together and restore the quality of life and opportunities we all deserve.

Katie Porter

Katie Porter | DEMOCRATIC

In Washington, powerful special interests have too much control, while Congress bogs down with endless partisan battles. The result? California's real challenges, from affordable housing to the climate crisis, don't get solved. They're ignored or made even worse. After years of speaking truth to power as a consumer protection attorney, I was elected to Congress in 2018. I don't "do Congress" like lifelong politicians and Washington insiders. I'm running to be your U.S. Senator to unrig the system. l'm one of the few in Congress who has never taken corporate PAC money—not one penny. I'm one of just 11 out of 435 Members of Congress who refuse campaign contributions from federal lobbyists. Instead, I'm leading the fight to ban Members of Congress from trading stocks. Whether it's Big Banks, Big Pharma, or Big Oil, I won't stand for corporate special interests lying to or ripping off Californians. I call them out and hold them accountable. I've been called “a watchdog,” “the leadership we desperately need,” and “Congress' toughest questioner.” Often using a whiteboard, I've successfully exposed corporate greed and cut through bureaucratic doublespeak to deliver results. I'm a single mom of three kids attending California public schools. As Senator, my priorities will be yours: Making life in California more affordable. Reducing housing costs. Combating climate change. Protecting reproductive rights. And ensuring good, high-paying California jobs. Learn more at KatiePorter.com. Let's shake up the Senate and solve our real problems. I'd be honored to earn your vote.

Christina Pascucci | DEMOCRATIC

Born and raised in California to remarkable parents, including an immigrant mother, I learned early the value of hard work and the promise of the California dream. As a first-generation college graduate, I understand that education is a gateway to opportunities and empowerment. Expecting my first child, I am determined to ensure that my daughter and all Californians have access to quality education, healthcare, and the opportunity to get ahead. I recognize the struggles many working families face, barely affording groceries, gas, and rent. It's those forgotten people whose stories I helped tell as a local journalist, and it's those people who I will champion in the US Senate. We need to invest in our public schools and working families. Childcare should be made more affordable, by offering incentives to employers who help defray the cost to their employees. I will also fight for affordable housing, especially for first responders and teachers. California is broken, but not unfixable. However, our current leaders are more fixated on fighting each other than figuring out solutions. I'm not a DC insider. As Senator, I'll stand up for your rights and interests. It's time to put people over politics. This Election Day, you have a choice between how it's been done, and how it can be. I respectfully ask for your vote.

Notice of Errata Regarding Ballot Designation

Eric Early

Eric Early | REPUBLICAN

Are you better off now than you were 4 years ago? The career politicians in DC have brought us a world of hurt. I'm no career politician. I'm a husband, father and successful small business owner. I am proud to be supported by great California Republican organizations and their members, including the California Republican Assembly, numerous County Republican Central Committees and the College Republicans of America. Long ago, I worked on the "GI Joe", "Jem" and "Transformers" TV series, putting myself through law school at night. I've been a fighter my entire career, to support my family while attending night school, and then to create one of California's top law firms. California needs a fighter in DC. As your next US Senator, I will fight for you and all Forgotten Americans. We must send the military to the border to end illegal immigration and Fentanyl trafficking; stop reckless spending causing inflation; protect our 2nd Amendment rights; make America energy independent; root out the internal Marxist threat to our nation; stop schools indoctrinating children about gender fluidity and America hatred; rid women's sports of biological males; prevent violent criminals from walking free; end the Ukraine war; stand for Israel against terror; and investigate a Justice Department weaponized to destroy our former President. America is exceptional. With courage and belief in God, America will prevail in this battle of good versus evil. I respectfully ask for your vote so I can fight for you and put America first.

Adam B. Schiff

Adam B. Schiff | DEMOCRATIC

Adam Schiff has always taken on the toughest fights to get things done for California. He's running for the U.S. Senate to continue delivering real results for Californians—making housing more affordable, lowering costs, protecting the planet, protecting abortion access, and building an economy that works for everyone, especially working families. From the courtroom to Congress, Adam took on the biggest bullies—drug companies, polluters, and drug cartels—and won. He has passed dozens of laws to lower prescription drug costs, expand public transit, create jobs, get people off the street, build the earthquake early warning system, and establish California's Patients Bill of Rights. And when our democracy was under assault by a dangerous president, Adam investigated, impeached and held him accountable for insurrection to protect our rights and freedoms, which are still under threat. Adam has a real record of results because he's willing to work with anyone to get things done—Democrats, Republicans and Independents. That's why hundreds of California elected officials and nine statewide labor unions have endorsed Adam's campaign. They know he'll always stand up for working families, and against special interests. Adam grew up in the Bay Area, working summers in his dad's lumber yard and as a seasonal firefighter to help pay for school. After law school, he settled in Southern California. Adam has been married to Eve (yes, they've heard all the jokes) for 28 years. They have two wonderful kids, Lexi and Eli. Visit www.AdamSchiff.com to learn more.

Barbara Lee

Barbara Lee | DEMOCRATIC

Californians are struggling. Now more than ever, you deserve an experienced Senator who has delivered real progressive change. As a teenager, I joined forces with the NAACP to integrate my female cheer squad at San Fernando High School. I escaped an abusive marriage and raised two sons on public assistance. With a graduate degree in social work, I opened a community mental health center to help those in need. As a legislator and Congresswoman, I increased penalties on people who block access to abortion clinics, and wrote California's first Violence Against Women Act. I expanded affordable housing and childcare, and fought to lift families out of poverty. I secured billions for HIV/AIDS that has saved 25 million lives around the world. I fought against voter suppression measures and, as lead plaintiff in the NAACP's lawsuit, I held Trump accountable for the January 6th riots. I was the only member of Congress to vote against the war in Afghanistan, the only candidate in this race to vote against the Iraq War, and the first to call for a ceasefire in the Middle East. I understand the struggles Californians face because I've lived them too. That's why I'll fight to protect reproductive freedom, deliver affordable housing and middle-class tax cuts, combat the climate crisis, and fight to protect our democracy. As a Black woman and accomplished legislator, I'll bring a much-needed voice to the Senate. Your fight will be my fight, and we will win together. Thank you for your consideration and your vote.
