Washington, DC – Mi Familia Decide PAC proudly announces the endorsement of Xavier Becerra for Governor of California, recognizing his lifelong commitment to public service, defending working families, protecting civil rights, and standing with immigrant communities.
At a time when Latino families continue to face attacks, harassment, and political scapegoating, leadership and representation matter. Xavier Becerra has dedicated his life to the values of hard work, accountability, and public service – principles rooted in his upbringing as the son of working-class immigrants. Throughout his career, Becerra has consistently fought to defend families, access to healthcare, protect workers and consumers, uphold civil rights, and stand with immigrant communities. He has repeatedly challenged policies and abuses of power that threaten the well-being and progress of the communities he serves.
"That is why Mi Familia Decide is proud to endorse Xavier Becerra for Governor of California and is committed to mobilizing support across the state to help make history in 2026." said Hector Sanchez Barba, Founder of Mi Familia Decide
"Representation is not symbolic; it shapes who is heard, whose experiences matter, and whose priorities are reflected in policy decisions. Latino communities have long been central to California’s economy, culture, and electoral strength, and they deserve to see themselves represented at the highest levels of government.
"California’s gubernatorial election will be historic for true democracy. Latino voters will help decide this future. Our communities will make their voices heard. Mi Familia Decide is prepared to organize, mobilize, and help build a future where California’s leadership finally mirrors the diversity and strength of the people it serves." said Efrain Escobedo, Treasurer of Mi Familia Decide
