Gavin Newsom

Seven years ago, I asked Josh Fryday to serve in my administration, and he's exceeded every expectation. He built the California Service Corps into a service force larger than the Peace Corps, stood up the first Climate Action Corps in the country, and brought a veteran's discipline to every challenge I put in front of him. Right now, Donald Trump is coming after California's funding, our environment, and our people. The Lieutenant Governor's office is not a place for on-the-job training. Josh has been in this fight, and he's ready to lead it. I trust Josh to defend California and I'm proud to give him my full endorsement to be California's next Lieutenant Governor.

We know he will fight for the funding, respect, and policies our educators, classified professionals, and students need to succeed. He is the husband of a public school educator, the parent of three children in public schools, and a product of California public schools. He is an innovative leader and shares the values we need to protect working people and improve our schools.

CSEA represents the classified employees who keep California's schools running every day, from custodians and librarians to bus drivers, food service workers, and paraeducators. These are the people who make sure students arrive safely, learn in clean classrooms, receive healthy meals, and get the one-on-one support they need to succeed. Our members support leaders who put their students first and value the workers who serve them. Josh Fryday is that leader. His record of public service and commitment to working families make him the clear choice for Lieutenant Governor.

California Environmental Voters

California Environmental Voters is proud to endorse Josh Fryday. He doesn't just talk about climate. He acts. With a long track record of climate leadership, including his work with NextGen Climate to build the political power needed to win on this issue, Josh has spent his career fighting for a livable planet. As a member of Governor Newsom's cabinet, Josh created the California Climate Action Corps, creating thousands of good jobs and opportunities for young Californians to protect communities on the front lines of the climate crisis. Josh's model for the Climate Corps has since spread to states across the country, empowering communities to take strong climate action. As Lieutenant Governor, he'll bring that same urgency to the role, protecting California's coast and public lands.

He is a product of California public schools, sends his three children to public schools and is married to a public school teacher. He understands public schools don't happen by accident — they happen when leaders listen to educators, respect our profession, and fight for every student. He is the kind of leader California needs and we know he will be a champion for educators, students and families.
