VoteVets PAC Endorses Ammar Campa-Najjar Against Darrell Issa in CA-48

“He will be a staunch defender of Democracy and an ally in helping to prevent any more failed forever wars.” 

Washington, DC. – Today, VoteVets PAC is announcing that it is endorsing Naval Officer, AFT educator, and former Obama Administration Official Ammar Campa-Najjar in California’s 48th Congressional District. Campa-Najjar is rematching Rep. Darrell Issa after coming within single digits of defeating the 20 year Republican incumbent. A recent poll conducted by BlueprintPolling shows Campa-Najjar with a 4-point lead against Issa, positioning him as the frontrunner in this must-win seat. 

The following quote can be attributed to VoteVets: 

“Ammar represents the next generation of bold leadership. His fighting spirit, persistence and love of country will help Democrats defeat Darrell Issa, take back the House, and put a check on the most anti-veteran administration in history. We know Ammar will work tirelessly to lower costs, expand access to healthcare, and keep our communities safe. We also know he will be a staunch defender of democracy and an ally in preventing any more failed forever wars. VoteVets is proud to endorse his campaign and look forward to working alongside him when he is in Congress.”
