Ricky Gill running for Congress in California
RICKY GILL, who served on the White House's National Security Council during the Trump administration, is running for a US House seat in Modesto area in California's 10th Congressional District.
The son of immigrant physicians and farmers from India, Gill is a native of the Central Valley, who has also served in the US State Department and on the California State Board of Education.
‘I'm running for Congress because I believe America is on the wrong track and the people of our
Central Valley community are being neglected by this (Biden) administration and its ineffectual policies,' he said.
‘Higher taxes, creeping inflation, and increasing food and energy costs are crushing local families and small businesses, discouraging our entrepreneurial spirit,' said Gill who has extensive background in local real estate.
Biden ‘administration's failures to address the border crisis and rising crime are eroding public safety, and reckless overspending is damaging public trust,' he said. ‘Educational choice is being limited in unprecedented ways, as parents are being marginalized in their own children's education.'
‘And the high cost of this administration's dangerous foreign policy is hitting hard right here at home. We need to change course – and quickly – with fresh, bold representation and new leadership,' Gill said.
Gill's candidature has been endorsed by former National Security Adviser Robert O'Brien and Texas Congressman and former chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee Pete Sessions.
