Ed Herrera
Local Business Leader
It is an honor to endorse Dr. Jasmeet Bains for California State Assembly, I have known her and her family for years and am excited to see her make this step. She is the real thing. Her work in Honduras and locally providing health care to a population that rarely or never sees a physician in spite of the surrounding danger tells me Dr. Bains is a courageous human being and in these times in our country, we need courageous leaders. I know with her family business involvement she will fight for our businesses as she understands that a healthy community equates to a strong local economy.

Jasmeet Bains is the quintessential Bakersfield's BEST candidate! She represents our community in the manner YOU deserve to be heard, with confidence, conviction, and courage. She is the voice of all people because she speaks the universal language of compassion and care regarding Family First in Safety, Water, Drug and Health awareness, and wellness. She works hard to earn our vote through her integrity, values, and trust. Jasmeet Bains is what the good doctor promises to earn your vote, to diagnose, repair, and treat; to do the right thing (when no one's looking), and to be on call for you and me every day, all day! Our lives depend on it.
