Los Angeles, CA…Today, the Swalwell for Governor campaign announced the California Medical Association (CMA) has endorsed his campaign, delivering a major boost of support to a campaign that has been gaining momentum across the state.
“Congressman Eric Swalwell is the clear choice for California physicians because he understands that a strong healthcare system is the backbone of a strong economy and healthy communities,” said CMA President René Bravo, M.D. “At a moment when our healthcare system is under enormous strain, we need proven, decisive leadership, and Eric Swalwell has shown he is ready to lead.”
“I’m grateful to earn the endorsement of the California Medical Association, an organization whose voice carries enormous weight because its members see, every day, what patients and families are up against,” said Congressman Eric Swalwell. “As governor, I will continue to fight for a healthcare system that supports the doctors and health professionals on the front lines and ensures every family can afford the care they need, when, and where they need it.”
The CMA’s backing adds to a growing list of supporters from across California, including Congressman Dr. Raul Ruiz, who announced his endorsement yesterday. Swalwell has the urgency, vision and strength to lower the cost of living and strengthen California’s healthcare system.
ABOUT THE CALIFORNIA MEDICAL ASSOCIATION
Representing 50,000 physicians, the California Medical Association’s (CMA) mission is to promote the science and art of medicine, protect public health, better the medical profession and achieve health equity and justice. For more than 165 years, CMA and its component medical societies have represented California’s physicians as the recognized voice of the medical profession. Keeping pace with the changing realities of the practice of medicine and the business of health care, CMA elevates physician voices to ensure that the real-world experience and diverse perspectives of California physicians and patients are heard and the interests of physicians in all practice settings are protected.
ABOUT CA GOVERNOR’S RACE
Eric Swalwell’s campaign for Governor reported raising $3 million in just six weeks since announcing the campaign on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on November 20, 2025.
Two recent polls — from the highly regarded polling firm FM3 Research and Emerson College Polling — show that Swalwell quickly emerged as a frontrunner for Governor. He eclipsed former U.S. Senate candidate and Congresswoman Katie Porter and the other Democratic candidates.
According to Politico on December 17, “Democratic voters prefer Swalwell (30 percent) to Porter (21 percent)” in the FM3 poll conducted November 30-December 7 among those likely to vote in June 2026. And the Emerson College Polling survey showed Swalwell quickly surged to the lead in the crowded field of candidates.
Swalwell has coalesced early support from his colleagues. U.S. Representative Jimmy Gomez (D-Los Angeles) serves as the Campaign Chair, and Reps. Nanette Barragan, Adam Gray, Mike Thompson, Kevin Mullin, and Jimmy Panetta have endorsed Swalwell — in addition to local elected officials across the state.
Swalwell, who represents California’s 14th Congressional District in the East Bay, has pledged to be a “fighter and protector” for California, focusing on affordability, economic growth and modernizing state government so it works better for everyone.
Current Governor Gavin Newsom is termed out in 2026, leaving this an open seat and a wide open race. Congressman Eric Swalwell is the only candidate currently in Congress and the only one actively standing up to Trump. The Primary Election is June 2, 2026.

Makes me ill to know I can no longer trust any doctor who is a member of the CMA.
This will drive even more people out of what is physically the best state in the US. The idiots in Sacramento seemingly hate all business, hate their long time neighbors and only love power and enough immigrants to fraudulently give the state more congressional seats.
Looks like the Communist spy Fang Fang from China, will be back on the Eric Swalwell campaign committee trying to get him elected. So far his only CA goal is to take away any CA drivers license from ICE officers and tell them they cant become a LEO in CA.
Like any federal LEO would want to.

Gavin has bulldozed his way through the above list of what issues that are destroying California. And it’s not as though the destruction has been mitigated or balanced out with positive, constructive, good governance that helped Californians in any way. Navigating daily life has become increasingly difficult, burdensome and horrifically expensive because of Gov. Newsom. There is not one positive proposal or legislative action Gov. Gavin Newsom has supported.
Newsom’s policies have expedited the destruction of the most beautiful state; accelerated the declining population through outbound migration resulting in the loss of a congressional seat. He has irreparably harmed California’s businesses and once thriving economy starting with his 3 years of Covid lockdowns, which hurt mostly small business owners the most. Newsom more than quadrupled the drug-addicted homeless vagrants living on California streets making cities unlivable. He bolstered labor unions while crushing independent contractors and gig workers. Gavin Newsom increased poverty in California while growing state government.
It’s as if Gov. Newsom was very carefully and specifically trained on what it would take to destroy California – the one thing in which he actually excels – that, and feathering his own nest with ill-gotten gains
Trump endorses Kristi Noem, also known as Ms. Swallowwell……….
Wow, that was dumb…even coming from a dumbacrap.
When’s Kamala and Tim going to move in the WH, whats taking so long?
Fox journamist, “Hey Bill, how old was that teenager who was sitting on your lap, with Epstein in the background?”
Bill Clinton ” I did not have a sexual encounter with that teenager”
CA Post reporter ” Mr Clinton, how old was that young lady you were pictured with giving a massage in the hot tub with Ghislaine Maxwell?”
Bill Clinton “I did not have a sexual….I do not recall any young lady in a hot tub or ever being with Ghislaine Maxwell in a hot tub. I am a very successful, honest man, who is deeply in love with my wife. This is nothing but a political play from a Dictator, who is jealous that teenagers want me and not him…I mean I do not recall ever being in a hot tub with Ghislaine Maxwell, let alone a teenager”
Clinton’s reply would you like to taste one of my cigars.
For those of you who don’t like it here. Don’t let the door hit you where the god lord split you
