Ammar Campa-Najjar, endorsed by Chula Vista Firefighters. Born in East San Diego, Ammar was raised in Chula Vista where his family has lived for three generations. He graduated from Eastlake High, Southwestern College and SDSU. Worked his first job at Eastlake Church, then for President Barack Obama in the White House and Administration. Ammar Campa-Najjar, a product of Chula Vista. Ready to lead the community that raised him.
Ammar’s plan to better fund our city: instead of raising local taxes like some of his opponents, Ammar will use his experience at the Obama Administration and relationships with congress to bring our federal tax dollars back to Chula Vista so we can improve our city without burdening residents with more taxes.
“My mom and mentors inspired me to graduate from Southwestern College and San Diego State University, and pursue a life of service. What began as a community organizing job in Chula Vista turned into an opportunity that would change my life — working for President Barack Obama at the White House. After the White House, I served as an executive at the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce advocating for small businesses, and as a federal official at the U.S. Department of Labor serving working families like the ones I grew up with.”
