Congressman Jerry McNerney was sworn into office on January 4, 2007. He is proud to represent California’s 9th District, which includes a large portion of San Joaquin County in the Central Valley as well as parts of Contra Costa and Sacramento Counties.
McNerney was inspired to run for Congress by his son Michael, who in response to the attacks of September 11, sought and received a commission in the Air Force. Michael suggested that his Dad serve his country by running for Congress. With a deep sense of duty and his family’s support, McNerney began his journey to Congress.
"Since coming to Congress, I have remained a champion for our service men and women who are bravely serving our country in the Armed Forces. To ensure the strength of our military we must maintain a commitment to providing our troops the resources needed for success on and off the battlefield.
