Rodolfo is a first-generation immigrant to the United States. He graduated from UC Berkeley and Stanford with his Ph.D. He is a socialist, Green Party progressive candidate. He aims to remove his longtime Congressional Representative, who refuses to fight for his community and who has taken money from all the worst corporations - Chevron, GEO Group, Lockheed Martin, and Walmart. 

It's time to terminate economic predation. It's time to promote the general welfare. It's time for guaranteed housing, education, jobs, food, and so much more. We need a bold new direction for East and Southeast Los Angeles, as well as for the human species more generally. 

Neither the Democrats nor the Republicans are capable of pushing for the kind of change that we need. We must break the two-party system if we are to save ourselves and our posterity from the deadly effects of the corporate state.

Our opponent is vulnerable. Can you pitch in?

Friends, 

Our establishment opponent feels very comfortable in her seat: She has less than 60k in the bank. She is not planning a serious campaign. We can win. 

Can you pitch in with another contribution? Your dollars go very far in our low-turnout District. It's us vs. the failed establishment. No other challengers. 

Thank you for your support.

BIG, BIG NEWS!

BIG NEWS! Thanks to your support and the signature work of our volunteers, we have officially made it on the ballot!...And that’s not all!

BIGGER NEWS YET! We are the ONLY campaign that filed to run against the 13-term Democratic incumbent. That means we will automatically advance beyond California’s “top-two” primary. We will appear on the general election ballot in November.

OUR PATH FORWARD Mrs. Roybal-Allard, the incumbent, cannot stand on her record. In an 86% Latino District that wants Trump out, she has twice voted against Trump’s impeachment. Every voter who hears about that pledges to vote her out.
