Friends and Supporters,
This weekend we are hosting a Day of Action, it is a volunteer canvassing opportunity for all our supporters to come out, and spread our message to all of Fresno. Please see attached. For those who are unavailable to walk, we have phone-banking opportunities during the week from 5-8pm and we canvass every day starting at 10am, 12pm on Sundays.
From the Dr. Joaquin Arambula for Assembly campaign:
As we enter the homestretch before the April 5 Special Election, momentum is clearly on our side.
With your help, we have built an incredible organization to tell people about my plans to fight for a healthier Valley and encourage them to vote. In fact, over the last two months, our campaign has directly contacted over 125,000 voters in Assembly District 31 at their doors or on the phone.
We can feel the energy and excitement for our campaign throughout the community. And we’re ready to take it through the finish line – but we can’t do it without your help.
And there are a number of ways you can get involved as we approach Election Day on April 5:
Show your support at the next debate, hosted by the Fresno Bee and Power Talk 96.7, this Wednesday, March 23 at Pardini’s from 4-6pm.
“… (Arambula) is best suited to represent the economically challenged district, which includes a portion of the city of Fresno and more than 20 other Fresno County cities and communities.
As the grandson of farmworkers, Arambula knows the challenges that immigrants face and the path to success. He is a conservative Democrat, which is another good fit for the district. In a Legislature dominated by Democrats, it would be difficult for a Republican, however well-intentioned, to deliver what the people of the 31st need.
In a meeting with The Fresno Bee editorial board, Arambula said that water is the No. 1 issue facing the Valley. In addition, he understands the complexities of water. For example, he connected water not just to the economic vitality of agriculture but also to residents’ health. While other politicians grasp that people must have access to safe, clean drinking water, Arambula pointed out that some district residents can’t afford medical prescriptions because the drought and the drastic cut in irrigation deliveries have dried up jobs in farming and related industries.
He said that the “farms vs. fish” sound bite is not helping the effort to secure irrigation water for the Valley. He supports the construction of two new reservoirs in California, at Temperance Flat and in Northern California. He also called for additional investment in water recycling and underground storage.
Arambula backs high-speed rail, career technical education, the creation of a publicly funded medical school in the Valley and modifications to Proposition 47 that would reduce crime while still steering those addicted to drugs and alcohol into substance-abuse recovery programs.
What we like best about Arambula is his promise of taking a scientific approach to Sacramento. In other words, he will use data – not talking points – to evaluate policy and legislation.”
