Protesters gathered in front of Congressman Devin Nunes’ office in Clovis on Thursday, upset about his vote to support the GOP health care plan and critical of his handling of the investigation into Russian election interference.
And, to hear from the first challenger to Nunes in the 2018 midterm election, a 33-year-old Fresno County deputy district attorney making his first run for office.
“I’m Andrew Janz and I’m here to repeal and replace Devin Nunes,” Janz told the crowd of about 80 supporters in the Central Valley town outside of Fresno.
“We’re here today because the congressman cast a vote last week for a bill that is a disaster for the American people … and we are here today because Devin Nunes won’t meet with us,” Janz said.
Janz, 33, of Visalia, told reporters he’d never thought about running for office until recently, when national political developments spurred him to get involved. He said he was especially motivated by the actions of his own representative, Nunes, on health care, and the complaint among some locals that the congressman ignored them.
