“Gil Cisneros and I share an important commitment, a commitment to our troops and veterans which is vital to our nations wellbeing. His decorated record of military and public service, reflects the best of our American values—hard work, courage, and a deep sense of community. I look forward to working with him for the communities of the San Gabriel Valley, California, and our nation. As a fellow veteran, I am proud to endorse him to be our next member of Congress.”

As a former San Gabriel Valley Assemblymember and as a long time community activist, I strongly endorse Gil Cisneros for Congress. Gil has shown that he is a devout public servant, from his time in the Navy to his foundation that helps San Gabriel Valley families gain access to higher education. In Congress he fought for Asian Americans, the middle class, and a clean environment while fighting the gun lobby and corrupt outside interests. I support #GilontheHill to ensure that our communities have a battle-tested, strong leader to fight for our interests.

I’ve represented the San Gabriel Valley in the House of Representatives and currently on the Board of Supervisors — and I was born and raised here. I strongly endorse Gil Cisneros to represent the 31st Congressional District, because as a public servant he has consistently demonstrated his commitment to the people in our community, both as a Congressmember and as Under Secretary of Defense. He deeply understands the challenges faced by our communities and has dedicated his life to advocating for women’s rights, DREAMers, education access, and veterans. I support #GilontheHill because he has never compromised his values and his commitment to standing up for our working-class families over special interests.

We need strong labor leaders like Gil Cisneros back in Congress to continue the progress the labor movement has made this year. I am supporting Gil Cisneros for CA 31 because he will fight for the working class in the San Gabriel Valley. We need #gilonthehill to help us pass the PRO Act and ensure it is signed into law. Si Se Puede!

As a school board member, I fight for strong public schools every day. I see that same spirit in Gil Cisneros. Gil has used his good fortune in the service of others: his foundation has helped so many kids from the San Gabriel Valley have a shot at college. Gil has fought for public education, worker rights, and environmental protection in Congress, and I can’t wait to see him represent the San Gabriel Valley in Congress. Let’s get Gil on the Hill!

Gil Cisneros has been a strong education advocate for students across the San Gabriel Valley for over a decade. As a former principal, I know Gil understands what it takes to provide a better future for our children. In the Pentagon, Gil spearheaded policies to support women, families, and LGBTQ+ service members in the military. Now more than ever, we need experienced leaders like Gil in Washington to uplift students and protect our vulnerable populations.

Our next Congressmember in the San Gabriel Valley needs to fight for us. When my family needed help with casework services, Gil stepped into action for my family. He cut red tape, got them help, and helped my family stay together. He fought for us.

As a former constituent of Gil’s, and as a current elected official, I have seen Gil’s constant leadership over the years. From issues like gun violence to public education, I know that Gil fights for what is right every single time. I’m proud to endorse Gil because he is by far and away the best Democrat to represent the San Gabriel Valley – let’s get Gil on the Hill!

I support Gil because he has been a lifelong champion for the San Gabriel Valley. With his deep personal and familial ties to our region, he understands our unique needs and values. Gil is the missing piece of the puzzle for our team in the San Gabriel Valley. With his unwavering commitment, he’s the ideal candidate to fight for us in Congress. I look forward to seeing servant leaders like Gil back in Congress, advocating for enacting common-sense gun reform, protecting the middle class, and ensuring investments in the environment, all to benefit California’s 31st Congressional District.
