Progressive and Effective.


Meet Jimmy

Jimmy Gomez is an educator, union organizer, and our U.S. Representative. Nobody is better prepared to stop the Republicans – and Jimmy fights them every step of the way, protecting our rights – and preserving our democracy. Because as a child of immigrants who grew up to become an effective, progressive advocate, Jimmy believes in the power of community to make change.

 

  • “Jimmy Gomez stands up for those who do not have a voice. He knows how much immigrants contribute to our nation, and how hard they work to provide for their families. We can trust Jimmy Gomez, he has the honesty and integrity we need in our representatives.”

    Dolores Huerta | Civil Rights Leader
  • "In Congress, it's important to have dedicated and committed allies who can deliver on our progressive agenda. Congressman Jimmy Gomez and I worked together to secure federal funds to restore the LA River and combat climate change, help Californians stay housed during pandemic, and increase citizenship education to help the next generation of immigrants become U.S. citizens. Jimmy is a proven progressive who delivers for us everyday."

    Alex Padilla | U.S. Senator
  • “I’m grateful to have had Jimmy as a partner in Congress over the past three-plus years. From our work together on the House Oversight and Reform Committee to advocating for the rights of immigrants, standing up for workers, and fighting for healthcare justice, Jimmy works incredibly hard for the people of the California 34th, and all of our communities.”

    Ayanna Pressley | Congresswoman, MA-7
  • "Jimmy Gomez is the one I trust to take the fight to Washington and continue moving the ball forward for our communities and the progressive movement. There are few elected officials who are as effective and principled as Jimmy. He’s the one I know will fight for us –and win – in Congress.”

    Sandra Figueroa-Villa | Executive Director of El Centro Del Pueblo
  • “As the first Korean American Democrat to be elected to Congress, I have always deeply respected Jimmy as he holds the unique privilege of representing the congressional district with the largest Korean American community in Congress. From COVID-19 relief to supporting small businesses, and protecting tenants, Jimmy has been delivering results for Korean Americans and the rest of his district for years.”

    Andy Kim | Congressman, NJ-3
  • “My colleague Jimmy Gomez fights for working people and those most in need. We worked side-by-side to pass the Build Back Better Act, which would be the most transformative investment in children and caregiving in generations, and the largest effort to combat climate change – and we won’t give up. And Jimmy Gomez is a co-sponsor of Medicare For All, because it is the most effective way to expand healthcare and reduce costs for everybody. We need Jimmy in Congress.”

    Pramila Jayapal | U.S. Representative and Progressive Caucus Chair
  • "Jimmy Gomez is an outstanding representative for the people I previously served in Congress. We have worked closely together since he became our Assemblyman. President Obama cited his Paid Family Leave bill as a national model. He's been at the forefront against climate change and domestic violence, to increase the minimum wage and to make higher education affordable. We need a champion like Jimmy Gomez."

    Xavier Becerra | Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services
  • “I trust Jimmy Gomez to fight to protect Obamacare and preserve vital health care funding for our families.”

    Hilda Solis | LA County Supervisor
