Palmdale, Calif. – On Saturday, May 13, Bryan Caforio will host an event with friends, neighbors, and local leaders to discuss how he plans to help move the community forward in 2018 and beyond. The announcement comes on the heels of Cook Political Report and Sabato’s Crystal Ball downgrading Rep. Steve Knight’s reelection chances after he cast a deciding vote in favor of Trump’s disastrous health care bill.
Caforio was born and raised in Southern California by two public school teachers, attended UCLA and Yale Law School, worked for a United States federal judge, and practices as an attorney taking on some of the world’s biggest banks and corporations. Bryan lives in Santa Clarita with his wife Lisa, who serves as a Deputy City Attorney at the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office.
California’s 25th Congressional District covers northern Los Angeles County and part of Ventura County including the Santa Clarita Valley, Antelope Valley, and Simi Valley. Hillary Clinton won the district by more than six points in 2016, registered Democrats outnumber registered Republicans, and the district is majority-minority. The district is now considered a “toss-up” and is held by Tea Party Republican Steve Knight, whom national Republicans have publicly identified as one of their most vulnerable incumbents.
