"Jacqui Irwin is the best-qualified and prepared candidate to represent our community in Congress,” Said Congressmember Brownley. “Jacqui’s record of standing up for all of us and building coalitions to get things done gives her the experience and tools needed to represent us but also stand up to the Trump administration’s attack on our values and our democracy. I enthusiastically endorse her for Congress."
Assemblymember Jacqui Irwin announces her candidacy to replace retiring member Julia Brownley in CA-26:
"It is with extreme gratitude that I want to thank Congresswoman Julia Brownley for her 7 terms in Congress," said Irwin. "During my time as Mayor of Thousand Oaks and as State Assemblymember, I saw time and again Julia putting our community first and leading with integrity and grace.
"I am excited to announce I am running to represent the new 26th Congressional District," Irwin continued. My energy and passion for public service has never been stronger. I am ready to stand up for our district and state in Congress, fighting Trump’s assault on our democracy and values while prioritizing public safety, affordability, and the needs of Ventura County.
"I look forward to earning the support of the communities I have represented; Thousand Oaks, Oxnard, Camarillo, Moorpark, Port Hueneme, Hidden Hills, Agoura Hills, Calabasas, Westlake Village, the community I grew up in; Woodland Hills, and making new friends in Santa Paula, Fillmore and the northern parts of Los Angeles County."
