Eric Guerra is a current Sacramento City Councilmember, community volunteer, policy advocate, husband and father. Eric’s life has been defined by hard work and determination. As a farmworker, an immigrant, and a graduate of Sacramento State, Eric worked hard to get where he is today, but he had a lot of help along the way. He knows that people sometimes simply need a hand up from those who believe in them.
When Eric makes a decision as an elected official, he always thinks about who it affects, how it affects them and what the different outcomes may be. Inequalities are all around us and it is in the hands of the people we elect to fix those inequalities. It is not enough to say you will correct issues, but you should have a record of taking action to accomplish those goals. Eric’s history of working on issues from housing, workforce development, education and the environment are just a few areas where he will continue to fight to fix inequalities for the LGBTQ+ community – no matter how someone identifies or what zip code they come from.
