CA-13: John Duarte (R)

John Duarte’s family has farmed in the San Joaquin Valley for four generations. Today, Duarte grows almonds, pistachios, and grapes.
Duarte has constructed his business Duarte Nurseries and watched his hard work pay off as he is able to employ about a thousand people in his community. Duarte likes to say, “You can’t lie to trees and you can’t lie to your bank account.”
Duarte wants to represent the working-class American, listening to the concerns of people in his community. He wants to turn his attention to agriculture, focusing on the water crisis as well as cracking down on crime.
