24 Pro-Trump Candidates Running for Congress in 2018


4:  Justin Fareed, House of Representatives, California

Justin Fareed was born and raised on the Central Coast. After attending Santa Barbara High School, he continued his education and achieved his childhood dream of playing Division One football at UCLA. After graduating with a B.A. in Political Science, Justin joined the UCLA Football coaching staff.

Following his time at UCLA, he served as a Legislative Aide for Congressman Ed Whitfield, who served as Chairman of the Energy & Power Subcommittee. Working closely with the Congressman, Justin was involved in drafting several bills, building consensus among Members of Congress, and effectively moving policy forward. In February 2013, Justin led an international congressional staff delegation to Turkey to learn first-hand about the cultural, political and economic interests in the region. In May 2017, Justin traveled to Israel to meet with Israeli officers guarding the Israeli-Lebanese and Syrian border and gained a strong perspective of the complex issues that our greatest ally in that region face on a day-to-day basis. Justin also spent time with executives and engineers of Israeli water technology companies to learn more about state-of-the-art desalination and water treatment solutions.

Justin believes in staying connected and giving back to the community. He currently serves on the Foundation Board for Santa Barbara High School. With his involvement, the board secured the funding and recently broke ground on a new stadium, synthetic track and field that will be a resource for the community for generations to come. He formally served on the board of Pat Roberts’s “Join-Up.” This non-profit organization assists combat veterans and first responders returning to America with physical, emotional or mental disabilities.

5:  Aja Smith, House of Representatives, California

TSgt. Aja Smith (Vet) has dedicated her career to serving her country. Following in the footsteps of her family, Aja decided at a young age that she wanted to help preserve the great freedoms that our country was founded upon.

Aja grew up in Moreno Valley, California and was raised by both her mother and grandmother who worked long hours as nurses, providing for Aja and ensuring she had every opportunity that her peers had. Both of Aja’s Grandparents served in the U.S. Military. Her Grandfather was a veteran of WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. Her great uncle was a Tuskegee Airman pilot.

In 2002, Aja joined the United States Air Force Reserve.  In 2007, she was deployed to Qatar and stationed at Al-Udeid Air Force Base during Operation Enduring Freedom.  Today, Aja is a federal employee at March Air Reserve Base working in Information Technology, located in the 41st District.

The 41st district consists largely of blue-collar workers.  March Air Force Base long fueled the local economy and provided jobs for local residents.  After base realignment, cities like Moreno Valley were devastated economically when March became a Reserve Base.  Aja Smith will fight to ensure that March Air Reserve Base does not close down and suffer the horrible economic effects.  It is essential that we find employment for our veterans and continue to bring jobs back to the Inland Empire.

If elected, Aja would become the first African-American female Republican to serve in Congress from California.  She would be the only the second African-American female Republican to currently serve in Congress along with Mia Love from Utah.

6:  Omar Navarro, House of Representatives, California

Omar Navarro was born in Inglewood, California. He has also lived in Hawthorne, and he currently resides in Torrance. Navarro is a Small Business Owner and has worked with Fortune 500 companies. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice and has assisted victims of crimes at the Los Angeles District Attorney’s office. Omar is the coordinator for the Unified Small Business Alliance Outreach Program.

In 2012, Omar was an advocate against the redistricting commission’s maps for gerrymandering. He’s served as a local Traffic Commissioner in the city of Torrance, CA. Omar also serves as an Ex-Officio on the Republican central committee.

It doesn’t take a mathematician to figure out that Congress is a dysfunctional mess.  They’d rather fight each other with the goal of scoring points on cable news instead of focusing on sustaining and creating jobs and balancing the budget.

Growing up, my grandpa told me that in Cuba, democracy was not an option. Citizenship in the United States requires us to do more than complain about our problems – we have to work together to fix them.
Our problems can’t be blamed on only Republicans or only Democrats. We need more people in both parties committed to working together and finding real, practical solutions.
