Central Valley Newspaper Highlights Caballero\u2019s Decades of Public Service<\/p>\n
SACRAMENTO, CA, UNITED STATES, April 28, 2026 \/EINPresswire.com<\/a>\/ — This week, the Bakersfield Californian recommended State Senator Anna Caballero<\/a> as a top candidate for State Treasurer to advance through the June 2nd Primary Election. The Californian\u2019s Editorial Board was impressed by Caballero\u2019s service record and ability to deliver results for Californians, deeming her one of \u201cthe most experienced and publicly tested candidates.\u201d<\/p>\n Below are excerpts from the editorial:<\/p>\n \u201cAn attorney, Caballero served 15 years on the Salinas City Council before being elected in 2006 to represent the 28th Assembly District,\u201d the Bakersfield Californian\u2019s Editorial Board wrote. \u201cIn 2011, she was appointed by Gov. Jerry Brown to serve as secretary of the Business, Consumer Services and Housing Agency. She oversaw 16,000 employees and a $27 billion budget. She returned to the Assembly in 2016 and was elected in 2018 to the 12th District state Senate seat.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cHer career also includes representing farmworkers with the California Rural Legal Assistance and co-founding a law firm providing affordable legal services to working families,\u201d the Californian continued. \u201cShe founded Partners for Peace, a nonprofit that aimed to reduce youth violence.\u201d<\/p>\n Caballero brings more than three decades of public service<\/a> to her campaign for California State Treasurer, having served as Mayor of Salinas, an Agency Secretary, a State Assemblymember, and State Senator. <\/p>\n Born into a family of copper miners, she learned early the value of hard work and that every dollar counts. Over 30 years in public service, Caballero has consistently fought to give everyday Californians a seat at the table and deliver solutions that improve the lives of working families across the state.<\/p>\n Caballero was the first woman elected Mayor of Salinas and the first Latina to represent her State Assembly and Senate Districts. If elected, she would continue to make history as the first Latina elected to statewide office in California.<\/p>\n In December, Caballero released the results of an internal statewide survey of likely California primary voters showing that the race for State Treasurer is wide open and that Caballero quickly moves into the lead among Democratic candidates once voters learn more about her background, record, and vision for the state.<\/p>\n Caballero\u2019s campaign is endorsed by leaders across California who believe in experience, integrity, and results, including Speaker Robert Rivas, Senate President pro Tempore Monique Lim\u00f3n, the California Latino Legislative Caucus, Lead Latinas Lead California, California Conference of Carpenters, International Union of Painters and Allied Trades, California State Association of Electrical Workers (CSAEW), the California Democratic Legislative Women\u2019s Caucus, and a broad coalition of Congressional, legislative, and local leaders from all over the state, as well as Democratic clubs and labor organizations.<\/p>\n \n###<\/p>\n Anna Caballero \n Legal Disclaimer:\n<\/p>\n \n EIN Presswire provides this news content “as is” without warranty of any kind.
