Phu Nguyen
COSTA MESA — Local Police & Firefighters today announced Phu Nguyen is their recommendation for the 68th Assembly seat at a press conference in Costa Mesa. Today’s endorsement for Nguyen, a small businessman and entrepreneur is the latest in a string of major endorsements his campaign has received in this highly contested race.
“Phu’s hard work during this campaign and commitment to public safety won us over—but we also know his opponent extremely well—and we know that he is not fit for service in the State Assembly,†said Wayne Quint, Jr., President of the Association for Orange County Deputy Sheriff’s.
“Nguyen knows the issues facing the district and thinks outside the box to solve them,†said Tim Visian, President of the Costa Mesa Firefighters Association. “Quite simply, he gets it.â€
“I’m honored to stand beside the leaders of the brave men and women who keep our communities safe—and to have earned their support for my campaign†said Nguyen. “ The most basic role of government is to keep its citizens safe and that means locking up offenders with stiff sentences.Â
“As the next Assemblymember for the 68th District I’m going to make sure these brave men and woman have every tool they need†Nguyen continued.
