WASHINGTON, DC – Elect Democratic Women (EDW), the Congressional Member-led committee dedicated to electing Democratic women to Congress, announced its endorsement of Jacqui Irwin for California’s 26th Congressional District.
“Elect Democratic Women is proud to endorse Jacqui Irwin for Congress,” said Congresswoman Julia Brownley, EDW Executive Board Member. “Jacqui brings the kind of practical, steady leadership our communities need right now. As a state legislator, former mayor, and mom, she has built a record of tackling tough challenges and focusing on what matters most to families — from lowering costs to keeping our communities safe. Jacqui understands the challenges people are facing and will be a strong voice in Washington, standing up for our values and fighting for our district. I am confident she has both the dedication and the experience to represent our community in Congress.”
“I’m honored to have earned the endorsement of Elect Democratic Women,” said Jacqui Irwin. “Throughout my career as an engineer, former councilmember and mayor, and a state legislator, I’ve learned that good governance means rolling up your sleeves and finding practical solutions that strengthen and protect our communities, whether it’s improving public safety, expanding access to opportunity, or protecting families and small businesses. I’m grateful for EDW’s support and look forward to continuing this work with women leaders across the country who are ready to deliver real results for their communities.”
