Democrat JGoldbeck announces candidacy for San Diego County Board of Supervisors District 4. The seat is being vacated by NathanFletcher.
SAN DIEGO – Veterans advocate Janessa Goldbeck Wednesday announced her candidacy for the San Diego County Board of Supervisors seat being vacated by Nathan Fletcher as he seeks a state Senate seat.
She is the nonprofit CEO of Vet Voice Foundation, a national veterans’ advocacy group with more than 1.5 million members. Goldbeck previously served as a combat engineer officer in the U.S. Marine Corps and as a uniformed victim advocate providing care to military service members who experienced sexual assault.
“After years of backward policies at the county, a new crop of leaders are delivering change to move San Diego forward in a new direction — but we need to keep up the pace,” she said in her candidacy announcement Wednesday. “Whether it’s fighting for economic opportunity, our veterans and military families, climate justice, workers’ rights, or public safety, we have much work to do to ensure the county truly lives up to the values we all share.
