I am incredibly proud to be endorsed by @HRC Human Rights Campaign PAC - their work to achieve LGBTQ+ equality is inspirational, and I am honored to stand alongside the nation's largest civil rights organization.

Thank you to the Santa Cruz Sentinel for their endorsement. I appreciate the important role local journalism plays in civic engagement. Election Day is almost here 🗳️ make sure your voice is heard.

"In a Congress where Republicans have abdicated their constitutional role, most recently with the war in Iran, his voice on democratic accountability, immigration reform, and health care has been increasingly clear."

[Jimmy Panetta @JimmyPanetta]

"A Navy veteran, a former prosecutor, and a legislator who has delivered more than two dozen bills signed into law, Panetta brings the passion, experience and institutional knowledge this moment demands..."

Proud moment for Monterey and for California’s 19th Congressional District.

I am honored to be endorsed by the National Education Association (NEA), supported by educators and advocates who are on the front lines every day - championing students, supporting communities, and shaping our future.

I am extremely honored to be endorsed by the Sierra Club - an organization that, since 1892, has been committed to promoting clean energy solutions and moving the nation towards a safe, clean energy future built on energy efficiency, clean energy, and American innovation.

That means that, if chosen by the constituents of our congressional district in the midterm elections of 2026, it will be my honor and privilege to continue my commitment, dedication, and service to the same people and values of this place that we call home.

[Jimmy Panetta @JimmyPanetta]

Tuesday's election results speak for themselves. Voters across California and the country decided decisively to get in the ring and fight back against this Administration, its policies, and its broken promises to reduce the high prices that are hurting working families.

Despite the changes in Congressional Districts in other parts of California, our 19th Congressional District will stay the exact same.

[Jimmy Panetta @JimmyPanetta]

"But I’m not in this job to have fun. I’m in this job to be a part of the fight so that our constituents can relish this place that we live in without being...kept up at night [with] these questions."

DONALD TRUMP, IF YOU DO NOT STAND DOWN, WE WILL BE FORCED TO LEAD AN EFFORT TO REDRAW THE MAPS IN CA TO OFFSET THE RIGGING OF MAPS IN RED STATES. BUT IF THE OTHER STATES CALL OFF THEIR REDISTRICTING EFFORTS, WE WILL DO THE SAME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

Today, on Good Trouble Day, we honor the legacy of U.S. Representative and civil rights leader John Lewis. Let Lewis's relentless pursuit of democracy and justice act as a reminder that every voice matters, including yours.
