Bliatout for Congress announces impressive endorsement list of local Democratic elected officials and community leaders

FRESNO, CA — Bobby Bliatout, nonprofit healthcare leader and Democratic congressional candidate, has received the endorsement of an impressive coalition of Democratic elected officials and community leaders across Freno and Tulare counties. This latest round of endorsements shows broad support for Bliatout’s campaign and represents his deep ties throughout the communities in the 22nd Congressional District.

“I’m honored to have the support of these outstanding public servants who represent their communities on city councils, school districts, and college boards,” said Bobby Bliatout. “I know that the only way that I’ll beat Devin Nunes in 2020 is by building a diverse coalition of people throughout the 22nd Congressional District.”

Bobby’s expertise in healthcare administration and his ability to unite diverse groups of people were the top two reasons given by the fifteen leaders as to why they support Bobby.

The list of Bobby’s current endorsements:

Jose Sigala, Mayor of Tulare

Greg Gomez, Mayor of Farmersville

Ruben Macareno, Farmersville City Council

Miguel Arias, Fresno City Council Member

Blong Xiong, Former Fresno City Council Member

Brandon Vang, Sanger Unified School Board Trustee

John Leal, State Center Community College District Trustee

Dr. Perla Soria, Lindsay Unified School District #4 Trustee

Laura Soria Cortes, Lindsay City Council Member

Ivet Soria, Lindsay Hospital Board Member

Eliseo Gamino, Firebaugh Unified School District Trustee

Espi Sandoval, Kerman City Council Member

Jose Ornelas, San Joaquin City Council Member

Steve Ly, Mayor of Elk Grove

Allen Warren, Sacramento City Councilmember

The son of Hmong immigrants, Bobby Bliatout’s family were American patriots long before they reached the United States. His family fought alongside American soldiers to combat communist totalitarianism during the Vietnam War.

With the help of the refugee resettlement program, Bobby’s family sowed roots in the United States. When Bobby was four years old, his parents moved their family to the Central Valley. Bobby’s father worked hard to provide for his family – taking jobs as everything from a Greyhound bus station janitor to a restaurant manager – while he worked his way through college. Eventually, both of Bobby’s parents saved enough money to open their own small business.

Bobby lives in Fresno with his wife Mouang and 14 year-old-son Bryce, while his eldest son Jarik is attending Fresno City College. Mouang works as a registered nurse and Bobby serves as the top executive at Health and Life Organization, Inc. (H.A.L.O.) and Greater Fresno Health Organization (GFHO). Between the two health care organizations, they provide medical and dental services to more than 100,000 patients and employ nearly 300 people. Nearly 30% of Bobby’s patients were covered under the Affordable Care Act. When Congress and Devin Nunes decided to make a political football out of people’s health care, Bobby decided he needed to make his voice heard and run for Congress.
