“I’m running for State Assembly because l believe in the promise of California, and I want to make sure the kids who grow up in our district have access to world-class schools, good-paying jobs, and clean air and water. I’ll listen to residents and work hard every day to improve and protect our quality of life. I’d be honored to earn your vote.”

- Joey Acuña

Joey’s priorities include:

IMPROVING PUBLIC SCHOOLS

As a local school leader, Joey knows that our public schools need support. Joey will fight for more state funds, stronger after-school programs, and smaller class sizes.

COMBATING RISING COSTS

Joey will work to raise wages and make housing more affordable. He’ll also help businesses fix supply chain problems and provide more support to families who are struggling.

REDUCING HOMELESSNESS

Housing costs, mental health challenges, and addiction are driving the homelessness crisis. Joey will fight to tackle all three root causes to get people off the streets.

CREATING JOBS

Joey understands that our communities need real jobs that can support a family. In the Assembly, he’ll help businesses start, expand, and thrive locally.

FIGHTING CLIMATE CHANGE

The climate is changing fast, but Joey knows that by investing in renewable energy, fighting pollution, and building infrastructure, we can protect our environment and economy.

EXPANDING HEALTHCARE

Joey believes that we can and should ensure every person has access to high-quality healthcare. He’ll fight to fund local clinics and lower the cost of prescription drugs.
