Background:
Assemblymember Alvarez was elected to the State Assembly in 2022 after a career as a social worker. Alvarez served on the San Diego City Council for several years and also on the San Diego Community College District Board.
Since joining the Assembly, he has had a decent voting record on justice reform, earning a “B” on our Legislative Scorecard in 2023, 2024, and 2025.
Public Safety Platform:
Assemblymember Alvarez does not have a public safety platform on his campaign website, yet he has accepted significant campaign contributions from law enforcement.
However, his opponents do not appear to be serious candidates and his voting record in the Legislature has been decent, so IJ Action recommends re-electing Assemblymember Alvarez as a Harm Reduction vote.
