In response to Dr. Richard Pan’s election to the U.S. House of Representatives, DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement:
“Congratulations to Dr. Richard Pan, the California Democratic Party, and all of the organizers across the district who delivered this important victory. As a former State Senator, doctor, and public health advocate, Richard has a proven track record of championing legislation that improves the lives of Californians. In the House, he will work for all of his constituents by fighting to lower costs, expand access to affordable healthcare, keep our communities safe, and roll back Republicans’ reckless and harmful policies that have increased prices.”
