Hailing from California's 74th District, State Assemblymember Laurie Davies was inspired to run for office by her love of California. Her favorite part of her job is solving her constituents' problems. 

Davies's top priorities for the rest of her term are ensuring affordable housing, public safety, strong schools, and support for local businesses. One thing she would say her district does better than anywhere else is volunteering.

In a few words, Davies would describe her district as "diverse, business friendly, and safe." Her favorite movie is Forrest Gump.
