NMA Endorses California State Senator Brian Jones for Re‐Election

Senator Brian Jones Continues Support of NMA And Local Businesses

The NMA has had a long-standing relationship with California State Senator Brian Jones, dating back from the time he served as a Santee City Councilmember. The NMA Board recently had a chance to speak to the Senator to discuss proposed legislation, like SB 620, that would greatly affect our members. Senator Jones made a commitment to ensure the interests of our independent family-owned businesses are always prioritized.

Senator Jones attended Grossmont College and earned his bachelor’s degree in Business Administration at San Diego State University. Brian pursued many opportunities including general manager at a local pizza franchise, car salesman, associate pastor, and a commercial real estate agent.

As an avid constitutionalist, Brian cares deeply about freedom and liberty. Driven by his commitment to improving the quality of life in his community, Brian first found his passion for public service as a Santee City Council Member from 2002-2010 and then again from 2017-2018. Brian took this passion for his community to the state level when he was elected to represent two different districts from 2010-2016. While in the State Assembly, he focused on creating a better economic environment for small businesses and supporting our Armed Forces members and veterans.

He has sponsored several notable legislative measures including his “Made in America” legislation, which makes it easier for manufacturers to do business in California, and legislation supporting the expansion of the craft beverage industry. In 2018, Brian was elected to represent California’s 38th Senate District. In the Senate, he has sponsored legislation that supports Second Amendment rights, saves court resources, and removes bureaucratic barriers for businesses and Californians.

Due to the recent state redistricting changes, Senator Jones will now run for re-election in the 40th district, which includes parts of San Diego, Escondido, San Marcos, Santee, Poway, Fallbrook, Lakeside, Winter Gardens, Ramona, Alpine, San Diego Country Estate, Valley Center, Lake San Marcos, Eucalyptus Hills, Hidden Meadows, Bonsall, Harbison Canyon, Harmony Grove, Pine Valley, Descanso, Rainbow, Pala, Del Dios, and Mount Laguna.
