congressman Lou Correa is a longtime Orange County resident, with deep local roots. To this day, he lives only three miles from his childhood neighborhood in Anaheim. He is the son of working-class parents whose hard work gave him a chance at success. Lou has spent his career fighting to protect the American Dream, and ensure anyone can reach the middle class, just as he did.
When Lou was young, his mother cleaned hotel rooms across from Disneyland, and his father held a manufacturing job at a paper mill. Through hard work, Lou’s parents gave him access to better education than they had, and a path to the middle class.
To preserve our environment for future generations, Congressman Correa believes it is crucial to examine all possible threats to the environment. He strives for a future where Americans can work towards energy independence without harming the environment. Congressman Correa is working hard to ensure the Environmental Protection Agency adheres to standards that will protect the environment so that our children can have access to clean air and water. Maintaining scientific integrity and using the latest research to protect and conserve our environment, is the only way towards truly protecting the environment.
