slide3.pngAmador County – This Thursday, the Amador County Democratic Central Committee will host Dr. Ami Bera, one of three candidates vying for the 3rd Congressional District Seat currently held by Congressman Dan Lungren. Bera is competing with fellow Democrats Gary Davis, an Elk Grove City Councilmember, and Bill Slaton, a member of the Sacramento Municipal Utility District Board of Directors. Bera sites his professional experience as a teaching physician and former Associate Dean for Admissions at the University of California, Davis School of Medicine, and his experience growing up as the son of immigrants as the inspirations behind his run for congress. “This country offered (my parents) the opportunity to give their children (my two older brothers and me) a chance to be anything that we wanted. It is this dream that constitutes what this country means to me and why I have decided to run for Congress,” writes Bera on his website. The Amador County Democratic Committee will host Bera as a guest speaker. Bera will discuss his campaign and his plans for winning the June 2010 primary. There will be time for questions following Bera's presentation. The event takes places June 25th at 7pm at the Amador Senior Center, 229 New York Ranch Road in Jackson. Regular meetings of the Amador County Democratic Central Committee are held on the fourth Thursday of each month at the Amador Senior Center and are open to the public.
