“Veterans for McNerney” and “Lost Limbs”: Watch Jerry McNerney’s new TV ads holding Richard Pombo accountable for his treatment of our veterans
For
Jerry McNerney, taking care of our veterans and treating
them with respect is personal. Jerry's own son volunteered to serve
in our nation’s
military in response to 9/11.
The powerful message in Jerry’s latest TV advertisements communicate how poorly Richard Pombo has treated the men and women who serve – and sacrifice – for our country.

Veteran support for Jerry McNerney is just one reason why General Wes Clark endorsed Jerry McNerney, telling voters that “to change politics-as-usual, we have to vote for someone besides the usual politicians.”
Jerry is also supported by Veterans for McNerney, a group led by Pete McCloskey, Lt. Col. Bill Evans (ret), and Jerry’s son, Michael McNerney.

Why I am Running for Congress
Everywhere I go throughout our diverse district, people ask "why are you running for Congress?"
I am running for Congress because the people of California's 11th Congressional District deserve honest and ethical leadership.
I am running for Congress because when I am elected, unlike Richard Pombo, I will work for real change instead of being a rubber stamp for the failed policies of George W. Bush.
I am running for Congress because I am committed to bringing a lifetime of experience in renewable energy to Washington so we can decrease America's dependence on foreign oil, thus increasing our national security.
Finally, I am
running for Congress because my son — who joined our armed
forces in response to 9/11 — asked me to serve my country.
This is an election that we can and must
win. To turn our country in a new direction, we need your
