Assembly District 7 includes the cities of Citrus Heights, Folsom, and Rancho Cordova and the unincorporated communities of Carmichael, Fair Oaks, Foothill Farms, Gold River, Mather, McClellan Park, North Highlands, Orangevale, and Rosemont.
Josh is a passionate advocate for California families. His top priorities include making sure our community remains a great place to live, work, and go to school. He serves as the Vice Chair of the Assembly Committee on Jobs, Economic Development, and the Economy where he works to support small businesses and bring great jobs to our region. He is also a member of the California Problem Solvers Caucus, a bipartisan group of legislators committed to finding common sense solutions to our state’s biggest challenges.

Josh Hoover on Housing and Abundance
“Our state’s housing-first approach to homelessness is failing to prioritize the mental health and substance abuse issues that keep people in a cycle of homelessness.”
“Throughout his time in the State Legislature, Josh has worked to put families first through his work to reform education, provide school choice, keep our neighborhoods safe, and make California more affordable.”
“That’s why I have opposed unreasonable mandates, worked to streamline construction projects, and supported legislation to increase our housing supply so hard working Californians are able to afford a home in the Golden State.”
