WE ENDORSE DA JEFF ROSEN FOR RE-ELECTION
Congressman Jimmy Panetta
“As a former prosecutor, I know DA Rosen understands the importance of a balanced approach to making our criminal justice system fairer and more equitable, while at the same time keeping the community safe.
Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren
“I’m proud to support Jeff Rosen for District Attorney. He has performed his duties with integrity, intelligence & diligence and deserves re-election.”
State Senator Josh Becker
“DA Jeff Rosen is both an effective and respected criminal justice reformer and a passionate advocate for victim’s rights.”
Assemblyman Evan Low
“When District Attorney Rosen saw a flaw in the law that allowed Brock Turner to receive an inadequate sentence for sexually assaulting Chanel Miller, he worked with me in the state capital to change that law.”
Santa Clara County Supervisor Cindy Chavez
“I asked DA Rosen to work with me to make sure all rape kits were being tested. He went beyond the call of duty. Today, Santa Clara County is a national model for the timely and accurate testing of rape kits.”
The City of San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo
“As long as I have known DA Rosen, I have never seen him put his personal interest above the interests of the people he serves. That’s a rare and welcome character attribute.”
The City of Saratoga Councilmember, Yan Zhao
“DA Rosen is a nationally recognized criminal justice reformer. But he never forgets the importance of making public safety in our local cities a top priority.”
The City of Santa Clara Police Chief, Pat Nikolai
“DA Rosen understands that law enforcement is a crucial stakeholder to create a better criminal justice system. He is fair-minded and principled. I appreciate his leadership.”
Karyn Sinunu-Towery, Volunteer Attorney, Northern CA Innocence Project
Jeff Rosen's thoughtful and balanced reforms are making our communities safer by using alternatives to incarceration, addressing the needs of crime victims, and changing the footprint of the criminal justice system.
Hillary Blout, For the People
“Jeff Rosen is a courageous DA who led the way to reform CA’s overly broad and excessively punitive, Three Strikes Law. His progressive leadership has helped shrink the footprint of CA’s criminal justice system.”
Bob Nuñez, President, San Jose/Silicon Valley NAACP
"I have always been impressed with DA Jeff Rosen's sense of fairness. Long before criminal justice reform became popular, Jeff Rosen was implementing reforms to make the system more equitable for people of color."
Sharan Dhanoa, South Bay Coalition to End Human Trafficking
“ DA Rosen has demonstrated his commitment to survivors of human trafficking. By proactively partnering with service providers, coalitions, and law enforcement, we have seen the number of prosecutions of traffickers increase, along with the numbers of survivors recovered and connected to services. DA Rosen’s leadership is crucial to effectively combat human trafficking.”
