California State Senator Josh Becker Supports John Pimentel

California State Senator Josh Becker has worked closely with John Pimentel on expanding access to community college in San Mateo County.

In his endorsement, Becker recalls John approaching him with the goal of making community college truly free - including books, fees, transportation, and other costs. That effort has since helped more than 35,000 students. Becker also points to John’s role as a fiscal watchdog on the community college board and describes him as a creative and innovative problem-solver who brings that same approach to public service.

Becker represents California’s 13th Senate District, which includes most of San Mateo County and the northern portion of Santa Clara County.
