Thursday's fall fundraiser is fast approaching and we are looking forward to seeing you for drinks, pizza, and some exciting 2024 candidates! Let's take a moment to introduce our special guest...
San Clemente Mayor Chris Duncan
Chris Duncan is a third-generation Californian, accomplished local mayor, former federal prosecutor, and a father of three. Now, Chris is running to represent our community in the Assembly to put the middle-class first, lower costs for working families, and ensure all our children grow up safe with real opportunity.
As the Mayor of San Clemente and a City Councilmember before that, Chris has made his city safer, protected a woman’s right to choose, prioritized smart growth and affordable housing, worked to create jobs, invested in clean energy, and helped small businesses survive the pandemic. Hailed for being a bridge-builder and a problem solver, Chris has earned a reputation for his bipartisan accomplishments and delivering real results.
Called to public service after 9/11, Chris Duncan spent more than 16 years as a federal prosecutor under both Democratic and Republican administrations, going after political corruption, corporate wrongdoing, and domestic terrorism. While working as a Senior Attorney at U.S. Customs and Border Protection in the Department of Homeland Security, Chris won several awards for his work penalizing foreign companies for trade violations, rooting out government corruption, and training hundreds of special agents on how to spot and report ethical violations.
Our club will be voting on an endorsement in this important race at our October 5th meeting. This is a great opportunity to meet Chris before voting on an endorsement.
