Using a vacant retail storefront as a reminder of the state’s high unemployment and shrinking tax base, Ramani stressed the need to improve the business climate. He is supported by several business owners in the community.
“We need someone to represent us in Sacramento who understands how to create jobs and the needs of the community. Not a partisan politician who only surfaces around election time. Sunder Ramani is, without a doubt, that person,” said Rick Dinger, Owner, Crescenta Valley Insurance (Glendale Resident).
Ramani has been endorsed by LA County MTA Chair and Glendale City Councilman Ara Najarian, former Burbank Mayor Michael Hastings, former Superintendent Burbank Unified School District Gregory Bowman and the Committee of 100, a group of community leaders and activists from the 43rd assembly district.
