YIMBY Action✓ EndorsesAbout Mike McGuire
No one fights harder for rural Californians and our communities than Senator Mike McGuire. He’s one of California’s few rural Democratic leaders at the state level—the first to rise up to serve as Leader of the Senate in over a century.
That’s a long way to go for a kid who was raised by his single mom and grandma on a small ranch in Sonoma County. But Mike’s grandma drilled into him the family code: Work hard, work together, and never take no for an answer.
Thanks to his determination, energy, and work ethic, Mike continues to deliver for Northern California—even in these tough times. Whether it’s rebuilding after a wildfire, standing up to corporate polluters, or defending democracy from unconstitutional attacks, Mike brings people together to get big things done.

“In the State Senate, he’s delivered billions for wildfire recovery and prevention, expanded rural healthcare, and invested in affordable housing and education.”
“I’ll go to the mat every day to make life more affordable, to grow our economy, to protect your healthcare, and to stand up to Donald Trump.”
