As voters tune in to tonight’s debate in the race for California’s 21st District, here is a reminder of just a few of the ways how former failed Congressman David Valadao has been such a loyal foot-soldier for President Trump’s toxic DC agenda.
- David Valadao endorsed Donald Trump’s re-election bid saying Trump “deserves the support here in the Central Valley”…FULL STOP.
- David Valadao stood on stage with Trump earlier this year and lapped up political praise from Trump and earning his endorsement.
- David Valadao is so supportive and in-line with the Trump-Valadao Agenda that he voted with Trump 99% of the time while in Congress.
- David Valadao’s unflinching allegiance to Trump even included Valadao voting to eliminate health care coverage for over 60,000 of his then constituents and cut protections for thousands that currently have preexisting conditions in CA-21.
- David Valadao’s support for Trump’s health care agenda even included supporting an “Age Tax” against older Californians which would have cost them five times more than normally for their health care.
Statement from DCCC Spokesperson Andy Orellana:
“Raising health care cost for older Californians, cutting health care for thousands of Central Valley families including protections for those with pre-existing conditions, and a near perfect voting record with President Donald Trump: just goes to show how far David Valadao has turned his back on the Central Valley and its working families.”
