Damon Connolly has been a capable and effective leader who is thoughtful, dedicated, and focused on achieving important policy victories that improve the lives of the people he represents.Damon has been fighting for the North Bay for 18 years, as a Marin County Supervisor, Vice-Mayor of San Rafael, School Board President, and California Deputy Attorney General.As Supervisor, he protected open spaces while increasing the availability of affordable housing; set Marin County on a path toward 100% renewable energy while keeping the County’s fiscal house in order; and spearheaded responses to homelessness while expanding access to public transit and infrastructure for bicyclists and pedestrians.
With Roe v. Wade overturned by a reactionary Supreme Court, California is rising to the occasion. Damon Connolly was the first candidate in the 12th Assembly District to champion the establishment of an abortion sanctuary in the state to protect patients and people who offer or facilitate abortion services.
Damon proudly supports Prop 1, on the ballot this November, which would amend the State Constitution to affirm that reproductive health decisions are protected as a constitutional right.
