Where Gallagher stands

Energy & environment

Rural Northern California is a renewable energy powerhouse. We produce a tremendous amount of the clean power that keeps the lights on across this state, but the families who live here are still paying significantly higher electricity bills.

Energy & environment

As a sixth-generation Sacramento Valley farmer, I know there is nothing abstract about water policy. It determines whether our farms can produce, whether our communities have a reliable water supply and whether rural Northern California can continue to thrive.

Taxes & spending

Behind that $5.88 million number are real people. These are families and small business owners who were waiting on money that belonged to them.

Foreign policy

North State growers produce some of the best winegrapes in the world, but right now they are competing in a market where federal policy can actually make it easier to use foreign products than grapes grown here at home.

Priorities

India is one of America’s most consequential partners, and our relationship will only grow more important in the decades ahead.

Priorities

Head Start is a lifeline for a lot of working families in rural Northern California.

Priorities

It was my great honor to take this bill on as one of my last actions in the legislature. Far too many wildfire victims are still waiting for the fair compensation they deserve.
