CA-47: Dave Min (D)

About the District

Campaign Website

Dave Min says he is running for Congress because, “As a first-generation, Korean American, I want my kids to grow up in the same California that attracted my parents and so many immigrants like them to come plant roots here—where everyone has a fair shot at the American Dream, where we prioritize our environment and the education and safety of our children, and where we maintain the spirit of openness and innovation that makes America so special.”

Before returning to the Golden State to work as a business law professor at UC Irvine School of Law, Min served as an enforcement attorney at the Securities and Exchange Commission, economic and financial policy advisor to Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and economic policy director at the Center for American Progress.

He met my wife while attending Harvard Law School. She teaches Family Law and runs the Domestic Violence Clinic also at UCI Law.

Min says, “We are grateful to be raising our three young children in Irvine. We love Orange County’s vibrance, diversity, and neighborliness, and of course the weather is amazing. To Jane and me, this district represents the very best of California – and America.”
