<h2 style="text-align: center">Dr. Jasmeet Bains Announces Powerful Wave of Endorsements from Labor Unions and Members of Congress</h2>BAKERSFIELD, CA — Less than a week after launching her campaign for Congress in California’s 22nd District, frontline physician and State Assemblymember Dr. Jasmeet Bains is announcing a broad and diverse coalition of endorsements — signaling strong momentum and wide-ranging support for her campaign to unseat Republican Rep. David Valadao.Dr. Bains’ early endorsements show deep bipartisan support in the district and span the full breadth of California’s Democratic leadership in Congress, with backing from leading members of the Asian Pacific American, Latino, and Women’s Caucuses — as well as leaders in the local labor movement and frontline and swing district fighters who know what it takes to win in the Central Valley.Rep. Adam Gray (CA-13): “I know what it takes to win tough races in the Central Valley — and I know Jasmeet Bains has what it takes to do it too. She’s a doctor, a fighter, and a champion for the working families who too often get left behind in Washington. I’m proud to stand with Jasmeet because she knows how to build coalitions, deliver results, and put this Valley first — every single day.”Rep. Luz Rivas (CA-29): "As a Latina and a woman in Congress, I know how important it is to have more voices like Dr. Jasmeet Bains at the table. She’s a barrier-breaker, a dedicated public servant, and exactly the kind of leader we need fighting for California’s families. I’m proud to support her."Rep. Laura Friedman (CA-30): “Dr. Jasmeet Bains understands that leadership means: listening to, and fighting like hell for, the communities you serve. From the floor of the State Assembly to the clinic where she continues treating patients, she’s shown up for families when they needed her most. Congress needs more leaders with Dr. Bains' integrity, courage, and compassion.”Rep. Dave Min (CA-47): “Dr. Bains represents the best of California: smart, pragmatic, and deeply committed to the people she serves. She’s never been afraid to take on tough fights or stand up for what’s right, whether for her patients or her constituents. In a time when fundamental health care is under attack more than ever before, I’m excited to support the doctor in this race and can’t wait to welcome her to Congress.”Rep. Judy Chu (CA-28): “As Chair Emerita of the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus and a longtime leader with ASPIRE PAC, I know how vital it is to elect leaders who reflect our diverse communities and deliver for working families. Dr. Jasmeet Bains has broken barriers in medicine and public service, and I know she’ll bring that same dedication and determination to Congress. I’m honored to support her.”Rep. Ami Bera (CA‑06): "As a fellow physician and someone who’s fought to defend the Affordable Care Act, I know Jasmeet Bains will be a strong voice for accessible, high-quality healthcare in Congress. She’s smart, pragmatic, and deeply committed to public service— exactly what our communities need in these times. I’m proud to stand with her as she brings her expertise and compassion to DC."Rep. Julia Brownley (CA‑26): “Dr. Jasmeet Bains has demonstrated the leadership, integrity, and deep community roots we need in federal office. As a Representative who’s spent years advocating for families and public health, I’m excited by the chance to work alongside Dr. Bains — because she’ll deliver mainstream solutions that lift everyone up.”Rep. Norma Torres (CA-35): "As a former 9-1-1 dispatcher, I know what it means to serve on the front lines for our communities—and so does Dr. Jasmeet Bains. She’s cared for patients in under-resourced clinics, stood with working families in the State Assembly, and fought for safer, healthier neighborhoods in the Central Valley. Jasmeet understands that public health, public safety, and workers’ rights are all connected—and she’ll be a relentless advocate for all three in Congress. I’m proud to endorse her."Two of California’s most prominent labor unions are also endorsing Dr. Bains: SEIU California, representing healthcare, child care, and public service workers, and IBEW Local 428, the Central Valley’s electrical workers union.SEIU California: “Dr. Jasmeet Bains is SEIU members’ choice for Congress because she’s fighting for our lives, our kids’ healthcare, and home care our seniors need to thrive. Growing up in the Valley, Dr. Bains knows that we struggle with the basics other regions take for granted – being able to take your kids to the doctor when they’re sick, or have an emergency room nearby when the worst case scenario becomes your reality. David Valadao’s vote for $1 trillion in health care cuts will make things worse and result in preventable deaths. We need a leader like Jasmeet in Congress – someone who is fighting for the people in the Central Valley, not billionaires, and we’ll be working hard every day to make sure she wins.IBEW Local 428: "IBEW Local 428 is proud to endorse Dr. Jasmeet Bains for Congress. As an advocate for working families, a trusted community leader, and a professional who understands the value of good jobs and strong labor protections, Dr. Bains is exactly the kind of leader we need in Washington. We look forward to working with her to build an economy that puts workers and their families first."“I’m proud to have the support of the people who power our movement — frontline workers and fighters for justice in Congress,” said Dr. Bains. “This campaign is about delivering for the Valley, and I’m ready to bring our voices to Washington.”Dr. Bains is a family and addiction doctor, daughter of immigrants, and the first Sikh American elected to the California Legislature who continues to serve patients at her hometown clinic in Delano. She is running to defeat Republican Rep. David Valadao, who voted for the largest cuts to Medi-Cal and public health in American history.For more information, visit<a href="http://www.bainsforcongress.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> </a><a href="http://DrJasmeetBains.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">DrJasmeetBains.com</a> and follow @DrJasmeetBains on social media.###Dr. Jasmeet Bains is a Central Valley doctor and State Assemblymember who has spent her life fighting for working families. The daughter of immigrants and a Delano native, she served on the frontlines of California’s wildfires and the COVID-19 pandemic before winning office in 2022. In Sacramento, she’s delivered results — from tackling the fentanyl crisis to bringing a new medical school to Kern County — and continues to lead the fight for healthcare, clean water, and dignity for vulnerable Californians, all while still treating patients at her hometown clinic on weekends.California’s 22nd Congressional District spans parts of Kern, Tulare, and Kings Counties — including many communities Dr. Bains already represents in the State Assembly.

Jasmeet Bains no es una política de carrera. Es una médica de familia que ha dedicado su vida a cuidar de las familias trabajadoras, a combatir las desigualdades en salud y a estar presente cuando más importa.</h3>Criada en Delano, hija de inmigrantes de primera generación, la Dra. Bains vio a sus padres construir una vida desde cero. Su padre trabajaba como mecánico y su madre, contadora. Juntos, le inculcaron los valores que aún la guían hoy: servicio, sacrificio y defender lo correcto, sin importar las adversidades.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/3b23241c-f505-49b8-8571-dd60140c2515/24e2fac1-1b64-40e6-82a6-e62753ac0303/24e2fac1-1b64-40e6-82a6-e62753ac0303.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C800%2C534&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="left" alignwidth="25" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed">Tras graduarse de medicina, la Dra. Bains regresó a casa, decidida a ejercer la medicina en la comunidad que la vio crecer. Completó su residencia en la Clínica Sierra Vista, atendiendo a pacientes que a menudo no tenían a quién recurrir: padres con enfermedades crónicas, niños con asma, veteranos con problemas de adicción. Luchó por ampliar el acceso a la atención médica en comunidades donde a menudo era la única médica disponible.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/3b23241c-f505-49b8-8571-dd60140c2515/400ec454-9988-428b-b1ed-772635c4542f/400ec454-9988-428b-b1ed-772635c4542f.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C640%2C640&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="right" alignwidth="30" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed">Cuando ocurrió el desastre, la Dra. Bains no dudó. Durante los devastadores incendios forestales de California, se desempeñó como Directora Médica del Valle Central con el Equipo de Asistencia Médica de California, estableciendo hospitales de campaña y brindando atención de emergencia a evacuados y bomberos. Cuando llegó la COVID-19, estuvo en primera línea, organizando hospitales de emergencia en todo el Valle para proteger a las familias.En 2022, transmitió esa misma urgencia a la Legislatura Estatal. Representando al Distrito 35 de la Asamblea, la Dra. Bains ha logrado resultados tangibles:<ul><li>Obtuvo más de 20 millones de dólares para combatir la adicción al fentanilo y el narcotráfico.</li><li>Lideró la iniciativa para construir una facultad de medicina de la UC en el condado de Kern.</li><li>Recortó los impuestos para madres trabajadoras y veteranos.</li><li>Se opuso a los nuevos impuestos a la gasolina y al aumento de los precios de la energía.</li></ul><img src="https://run.imgix.net/3b23241c-f505-49b8-8571-dd60140c2515/08eb05b1-3485-475b-8c77-fce9341f8d0b/08eb05b1-3485-475b-8c77-fce9341f8d0b.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C736%2C510&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="left" alignwidth="35" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed">Nunca se ha rendido en las luchas difíciles, porque sabe lo que está en juego.La Dra.

Como presidenta del Comité de Envejecimiento y Cuidados a Largo Plazo de la Asamblea, lidera la lucha por la dignidad, la seguridad y los servicios para los adultos mayores de California.Su trayectoria no ha pasado desapercibida. Ha sido nombrada Legisladora del Año por CalPACE, la Asociación de Alzheimer y Crime Victims United; galardonada por el Consejo Sikh Americano por romper barreras; y reconocida como Médica del Año por la Cámara de Comercio Negra del Condado de Kern.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/3b23241c-f505-49b8-8571-dd60140c2515/99ed9aca-2d35-4a3a-8759-8bd3c0df8b83/99ed9aca-2d35-4a3a-8759-8bd3c0df8b83.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C8688%2C5792&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="right" alignwidth="35" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed">Pero para la Dra.

Together, they taught Dr. Bains the values that still guide her today: service, sacrifice, and standing up for what’s right – no matter the odds.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/3b23241c-f505-49b8-8571-dd60140c2515/24e2fac1-1b64-40e6-82a6-e62753ac0303/24e2fac1-1b64-40e6-82a6-e62753ac0303.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C800%2C534&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="left" alignwidth="35" tiltdirection="right" variant="framed">After medical school, Dr. Bains came home, determined to practice medicine in the community that raised her. She completed her residency at Clinica Sierra Vista, treating patients who often had nowhere else to turn — parents battling chronic illness, children with asthma, veterans fighting addiction. She fought to expand access to healthcare in communities where she was often the only doctor around.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/3b23241c-f505-49b8-8571-dd60140c2515/400ec454-9988-428b-b1ed-772635c4542f/400ec454-9988-428b-b1ed-772635c4542f.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C640%2C640&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="right" alignwidth="30" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/3b23241c-f505-49b8-8571-dd60140c2515/72355466-1b5a-4664-940a-041159a82519/72355466-1b5a-4664-940a-041159a82519.heic?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C3024%2C3780&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="right" alignwidth="25" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed">When disaster struck, Dr. Bains didn’t hesitate. During California’s devastating wildfires, she deployed as Chief Medical Officer for the Central Valley with the California Medical Assistance Team, setting up field hospitals and providing emergency care to evacuees and firefighters. When COVID-19 hit, she was on the front lines, organizing surge hospitals across the Valley to keep families safe.In 2022, she brought that same urgency to the State Legislature. Representing the 35th Assembly District, Dr. Bains has delivered real results:<ul><li>Secured over $20 million to fight fentanyl addiction and drug trafficking</li><li>Led the effort to build a&nbsp;UC medical school in Kern County</li><li>Cut taxes for working moms and veterans</li><li>Opposed new gas taxes and higher energy prices</li></ul>She’s never backed down from tough fights — because she knows what’s at stake.Dr. Bains is a fierce advocate for the most vulnerable. She’s partnered with nonprofits to combat human trafficking and child exploitation, championed clean water for people and farms, fought for rural health equity, and stood up for vulnerable children and seniors alike. As Chair of the Assembly’s Aging and Long-term Care Committee, she is leading the charge for dignity, safety, and services for older Californians.Her record hasn’t gone unnoticed. She’s been named Legislator of the Year by CalPACE, the Alzheimer’s Association, and Crime Victims United; honored by the American Sikh Council for breaking barriers; and recognized as Physician of the Year by the Kern County Black Chamber of Commerce.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/3b23241c-f505-49b8-8571-dd60140c2515/99ed9aca-2d35-4a3a-8759-8bd3c0df8b83/99ed9aca-2d35-4a3a-8759-8bd3c0df8b83.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C8688%2C5792&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="left" alignwidth="32" tiltdirection="right" variant="framed">But for Dr. Bains, this work isn’t about the recognition.

But when voters learn more about Bains’ record of service, she pulls ahead, leading Valadao 45% to 40%. No other Democrat in the race broke 40% support among Central Valley voters.Bains’ Record Breaks ThroughA majority of voters (52%) — including nearly one-third (31%) who find it very convincing — say they are drawn to Bains’ record of public service:<ul><li>Serving on the frontlines of California’s wildfires and the COVID-19 pandemic.</li></ul><ul><li>Tackling the fentanyl crisis and strengthening public health in the State Assembly.</li></ul><ul><li>Fighting to lower costs and raise wages for working families.</li></ul>Valadao UnderwaterValadao is deeply underwater with voters. His approval rating sits at -14, and he trails Bains by 2 points in a general election matchup if the race were held today.Nearly half of voters (46%) say they have serious concerns about Valadao’s vote to gut Medicaid — a decision that puts coverage for more than <a href="/updated-jec-fact-sheet-on-district-level-impacts-of-health-care-cuts.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">65,000</a> district residents at risk, the most of any Republican-held seat in the nation. His choice to cut nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid to fund tax breaks for billionaires has left him deeply vulnerable.Key Coalition StrengthBains’ path to victory is powered by her strength with Hispanic and Latino voters, a cornerstone of the Central Valley electorate. She begins with a 5-point lead (44–39) in the initial ballot and expands that advantage to 11 points (48–37) once voters learn more about her.

Dr. Jasmeet Bains’ record of service and commitment to tackling the affordability crisis resonate deeply with voters and make her the clear choice in this race, while David Valadao’s toxic record on health care leaves him increasingly unelectable.###

DELANO, CA — On the 60th anniversary of the landmark legislation that created Medicaid, Central Valley doctor and State Assemblywoman Dr. Jasmeet Bains released the following statement:“As a doctor, I’ve seen firsthand how Medicaid has been a lifeline for working families, seniors, and children across the Central Valley. For sixty years, this program has helped people get the care they need — from prenatal checkups to cancer treatments to addiction recovery.We should be building on that progress. Instead, Washington politicians are playing games with people’s lives. My opponent, David Valadao, voted to slash Medicaid funding and kick millions off their coverage. That’s not leadership — that’s cruelty.In Congress, I’ll do what I’ve always done as a doctor and as a legislator: fight for the health and dignity of every person I serve. That means protecting and expanding Medicaid, lowering costs, and making sure no family has to choose between going to the doctor and paying the rent.”Dr. Bains has made improving health care access a central focus of her campaign, drawing on years of frontline experience serving underserved and rural communities in California’s Central Valley.

Doctora y asambleísta del Valle Central promete poner a las familias trabajadoras por delante de la política partidistaDELANO, CA — Hoy, la médica de familia, Dra. Jasmeet Bains anunció su campaña para el Congreso en el Distrito 22 de California, prometiendo traer nuevo liderazgo a una región frecuentemente ignorada por Washington, D.C.“Soy doctora, no una política de carrera — y he dedicado mi vida a estar en la primera línea, escuchando a las familias del Valle y luchando por su salud, su seguridad y su futuro,” dijo la Dra. Bains. “Me postulo al Congreso porque nuestras comunidades merecen algo mejor que promesas rotas y acuerdos en secreto. Mi comunidad está cansada de quedarse atrás.&nbsp; Merecemos una representante que dé la cara y luche por el Valle.”La Dra. Bains es médica de familia y de adicciones, y se desempeña como Directora Médica del Valle Central del Equipo de Asistencia Médica de California, que organiza servicios de salud de emergencia en todo el estado. Criada en Delano, hija de inmigrantes y la primera en su familia en convertirse en doctora, la Dra. Bains representa el Condado de Kern en la Asamblea Estatal. Desde su elección en 2022 con un amplio respaldo bipartidista, se ha destacado como una defensora incansable de las comunidades desatendidas, una campeona de la salud rural y una líder en la lucha contra la adicción y la crisis del fentanilo, mientras trabaja para traer empleos bien remunerados y la inversión que por tanto tiempo se le ha negado al Valle Central y a sus familias trabajadoras.Ahora, ella está dando un paso al frente para desafiar al representante David Valadao, quien ha votado en línea con Donald Trump y el liderazgo republicano para desmantelar Medi-Cal, recortar la asistencia alimentaria y respaldar un presupuesto que afectaría gravemente a las familias trabajadoras a través del Valle.“David Valadao no trabaja para nosotros — trabaja para los donantes y los políticos de Washington que aumentan los precios de los medicamentos y financian su campaña, mientras nuestras familias tienen que racionar la atención médica,” dijo la Dra. Bains. “En plena crisis de asequibilidad en el Valle Central, mientras nuestras comunidades luchan por pagar la atención médica, la comida o el agua limpia, Valadao acaba de votar para desmantelar Medi-Cal — que brinda cobertura asequible al 68% de nuestra comunidad,&nbsp; aumentar el costo de los medicamentos recetados y eliminar la asistencia alimentaria para miles de personas trabajadoras. Eso no es liderazgo — eso es una traición.”El Distrito 22 de California incluye Bakersfield, Delano, Hanford y comunidades en los condados de Kern, Kings y Tulare — una de las regiones más diversas y económicamente vitales de California. La campaña de la Dra. Bains se enfocará en garantizar que cada familia en el Valle tenga acceso a atención médica asequible y oportunidades económicas — sin importar su código postal.El voto de Valadao a favor del “La Propuesta Horrenda” de los republicanos:<ul><li>Le quitaría la cobertura de salud a al menos 65,000 personas en CA-22&nbsp;</li><li>Recortará la asistencia alimentaria para más de 60,000 hogares</li><li>Casi 500,000 residentes en CA-22 dependen de Medi-Cal para su cobertura de salud, el 68% del distrito.</li></ul>“Por muchos tiempo, los políticos de ambos partidos han tratado al Valle Central como una idea posterior”, agregó la Dra. Bains. “Me postulo para cambiar eso, porque este distrito es mi hogar, y nunca dejaré de luchar por ello”.Para más información, visite <a href="http://DrJasmeetBains.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">DrJasmeetBains.com</a> y siga @DrJasmeetBains en las redes sociales.###La Dra.

En Sacramento, ha obtenido resultados — desde abordar la crisis del fentanilo hasta traer una nueva escuela de medicina al condado de Kern — y continúa liderando la lucha por la atención médica, el agua potable y la dignidad de los californianos vulnerables, todo mientras sigue tratando a pacientes en la clínica de su comunidad los fines de semana. El Distrito 22 Congressional de California abarca partes de los condados de Kern, Tulare y Kings, incluyendo a muchas comunidades que el Dr. Bains ya representa en la Asamblea Estatal.

“Soy doctora, no una política de carrera — y he dedicado mi vida a estar en la primera línea, escuchando a las familias del Valle y luchando por su salud, su seguridad y su futuro,” dijo la Dra. Bains. “Me postulo al Congreso porque nuestras comunidades merecen algo mejor que promesas rotas y acuerdos en secreto. Mi comunidad está cansada de quedarse atrás.&nbsp; Merecemos una representante que dé la cara y luche por el Valle.”

I am grateful today that working families will finally see some relief – it’s the least Congress can do. But let’s be clear: Valadao’s role is too little, too late. He can’t undo the damage he’s caused, the trust he’s broken, or the fact that he repeatedly sold the Valley out.

Central Valley doctor and Assemblymember vows to put working families ahead of partisan politicsDELANO, CA — Today, family physician Dr. Jasmeet Bains announced her campaign for Congress in California’s 22nd District, pledging to bring new leadership to a region often ignored by Washington D.C.​“I’m a doctor, not a career politician — and I’ve spent my life on the frontlines, listening to Valley families and fighting for their health, their safety, and their future,” said Dr. Bains. “I’m running for Congress because we deserve better than broken promises and backroom deals, and our communities are tired of getting left behind. We deserve a representative who will actually show up, and stand up, for the Valley.”Dr. Bains is a family and addiction doctor who serves as the Central Valley's Chief Medical Officer for the California Medical Assistance team, which organizes emergency health services across the state. Raised in Delano, the daughter of immigrants, and the first in her family to become a doctor, Dr. Bains represents the Kern County area in the State Assembly. Since her election in 2022 with strong bipartisan support, she has emerged as a relentless advocate for underserved communities, a champion for rural healthcare, and a leader in addressing the addiction and fentanyl crisis — while pushing to bring good-paying jobs and long-overdue investment back to the Central Valley for working families.She’s now stepping up to challenge Rep. David Valadao, who has voted in lockstep with Donald Trump and House Republican leadership to gut Medi-Cal, slash food assistance, and back a budget that would devastate working families across the Valley.“David Valadao doesn’t work for us — he works for the donors and D.C. insiders who drive up drug prices and fund his campaigns as families here are rationing care,” said Dr. Bains. “In the middle of an affordability crisis in the Central Valley, while our communities struggle to afford care, food, or clean water, Valadao just voted to gut Medi-Cal that provides 68% of the affordable healthcare in our community, jack up prescription drug prices, and cut off food assistance for thousands of hardworking folks. That’s not leadership — that’s betrayal.”CA-22 includes Bakersfield, Delano, Hanford, and communities across Kern, Kings, and Tulare Counties — one of the most diverse and economically vital regions in California. Dr. Bains’ campaign will focus on ensuring every family in the Valley can access affordable healthcare and economic opportunity — no matter their zip code.Valadao’s vote for the GOP’s “One Big Ugly Budget” would:<ul><li>Strip health coverage from at least 65,000 people in CA-22</li><li>Cut food assistance for more than 60,000 households</li><li>Nearly 500,000 residents in CA-22 rely on Medi-Cal for their health coverage – 68% of the district.</li></ul>“For too long, politicians in both parties have treated the Central Valley like an afterthought,” Dr. Bains added. “I’m running to change that — because this district is my home, and I’ll never stop fighting for it.”###Dr. Jasmeet Bains is a Central Valley doctor and State Assemblymember who has spent her life fighting for working families. The daughter of immigrants and a Delano native, she served on the frontlines of California’s wildfires and the COVID-19 pandemic before winning office in 2022. In Sacramento, she’s delivered results — from tackling the fentanyl crisis to bringing a new medical school to Kern County — and continues to lead the fight for healthcare, clean water, and dignity for vulnerable Californians, all while still treating patients at her hometown clinic on weekends. California’s 22nd Congressional District spans parts of Kern, Tulare, and Kings Counties — including many communities Dr. Bains already represents in the State Assembly.

ICYMI: Wall Street Journal Spotlights Dr. Jasmeet Bains, a Physician Taking on Valadao’s Health Care Cuts

DELANO, CA — Less than a week after launching her campaign for Congress in California’s 22nd District, frontline physician and State Assemblymember Dr. Jasmeet Bains is announcing a broad and diverse coalition of endorsements — signaling strong momentum and wide-ranging support for her campaign to unseat Republican Rep. David Valadao.Dr. Bains’ early endorsements show deep bipartisan support in the district and span the full breadth of California’s Democratic leadership in Congress, with backing from leading members of the Asian Pacific American, Latino, and Women’s Caucuses — as well as leaders in the local labor movement and frontline and swing district fighters who know what it takes to win in the Central Valley.Rep. Adam Gray (CA-13): “I know what it takes to win tough races in the Central Valley — and I know Jasmeet Bains has what it takes to do it too. She’s a doctor, a fighter, and a champion for the working families who too often get left behind in Washington. I’m proud to stand with Jasmeet because she knows how to build coalitions, deliver results, and put this Valley first — every single day.”Rep. Luz Rivas (CA-29): "As a Latina and a woman in Congress, I know how important it is to have more voices like Dr. Jasmeet Bains at the table. She’s a barrier-breaker, a dedicated public servant, and exactly the kind of leader we need fighting for California’s families. I’m proud to support her."Rep. Laura Friedman (CA-30): “Dr. Jasmeet Bains understands that leadership means: listening to, and fighting like hell for, the communities you serve. From the floor of the State Assembly to the clinic where she continues treating patients, she’s shown up for families when they needed her most. Congress needs more leaders with Dr. Bains' integrity, courage, and compassion.”Rep. Dave Min (CA-47): “Dr. Bains represents the best of California: smart, pragmatic, and deeply committed to the people she serves. She’s never been afraid to take on tough fights or stand up for what’s right, whether for her patients or her constituents. In a time when fundamental health care is under attack more than ever before, I’m excited to support the doctor in this race and can’t wait to welcome her to Congress.”Rep. Judy Chu (CA-28): “As Chair Emerita of the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus and a longtime leader with ASPIRE PAC, I know how vital it is to elect leaders who reflect our diverse communities and deliver for working families. Dr. Jasmeet Bains has broken barriers in medicine and public service, and I know she’ll bring that same dedication and determination to Congress. I’m honored to support her.”Rep. Ami Bera (CA‑06): "As a fellow physician and someone who’s fought to defend the Affordable Care Act, I know Jasmeet Bains will be a strong voice for accessible, high-quality healthcare in Congress. She’s smart, pragmatic, and deeply committed to public service— exactly what our communities need in these times. I’m proud to stand with her as she brings her expertise and compassion to DC."Rep. Julia Brownley (CA‑26): “Dr. Jasmeet Bains has demonstrated the leadership, integrity, and deep community roots we need in federal office. As a Representative who’s spent years advocating for families and public health, I’m excited by the chance to work alongside Dr. Bains — because she’ll deliver mainstream solutions that lift everyone up.”Rep. Norma Torres (CA-35): "As a former 9-1-1 dispatcher, I know what it means to serve on the front lines for our communities—and so does Dr. Jasmeet Bains. She’s cared for patients in under-resourced clinics, stood with working families in the State Assembly, and fought for safer, healthier neighborhoods in the Central Valley. Jasmeet understands that public health, public safety, and workers’ rights are all connected—and she’ll be a relentless advocate for all three in Congress. I’m proud to endorse her."Two of California’s most prominent labor unions are also endorsing Dr. Bains: SEIU California, representing healthcare, child care, and public service workers, and IBEW Local 428, the Central Valley’s electrical workers union.SEIU California: “Dr. Jasmeet Bains is SEIU members’ choice for Congress because she’s fighting for our lives, our kids’ healthcare, and home care our seniors need to thrive. Growing up in the Valley, Dr. Bains knows that we struggle with the basics other regions take for granted – being able to take your kids to the doctor when they’re sick, or have an emergency room nearby when the worst case scenario becomes your reality. David Valadao’s vote for $1 trillion in health care cuts will make things worse and result in preventable deaths. We need a leader like Jasmeet in Congress – someone who is fighting for the people in the Central Valley, not billionaires, and we’ll be working hard every day to make sure she wins.IBEW Local 428: "IBEW Local 428 is proud to endorse Dr. Jasmeet Bains for Congress. As an advocate for working families, a trusted community leader, and a professional who understands the value of good jobs and strong labor protections, Dr. Bains is exactly the kind of leader we need in Washington. We look forward to working with her to build an economy that puts workers and their families first."“I’m proud to have the support of the people who power our movement — frontline workers and fighters for justice in Congress,” said Dr. Bains. “This campaign is about delivering for the Valley, and I’m ready to bring our voices to Washington.”Dr. Bains is a family and addiction doctor, daughter of immigrants, and the first Sikh American elected to the California Legislature who continues to serve patients at her hometown clinic in Delano. She is running to defeat Republican Rep. David Valadao, who voted for the largest cuts to Medi-Cal and public health in American history.For more information, visit<a href="http://www.bainsforcongress.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> </a><a href="http://DrJasmeetBains.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">DrJasmeetBains.com</a> and follow @DrJasmeetBains on social media.###Dr. Jasmeet Bains is a Central Valley doctor and State Assemblymember who has spent her life fighting for working families.
