My name is Dr. Marena Lin, and I was born and raised in the San Fernando Valley.
I’m a climate scientist with a doctorate from Harvard University and a data scientist at the LA County Department of Public Health.
I’m a 2005 graduate of Granada Hills High School, and my campaign team comprises my high school classmates.
I’m the daughter of Taiwanese-American immigrants and the caregiver and conservator of my cousin who has Down syndrome.
In a recent mailer to the entire district, Congressman Brad Sherman himself described me as having “dedicated my life to stopping global warming and achieving environmental justice” and called me “a New Generation of Progressive Leadership.”
I want to build a constituent services office that answers the phone when you need help with Medicare, Social Security, or Medi-Cal.
I will get things done, because I’ve already supported my family through every phone tree and hours-long wait at the Social Security office. I know how hard this all is and what’s at stake for each person.
I’m entirely funded by individual donors. I accept no PAC money, and I am accountable only to you, my constituents, regardless of your political beliefs.
At marenalin.com, you’ll find research on anonymous political spending in our race, a dashboard comparing Congressman Sherman’s office expenditures with every other sitting House member, and free public tools I’ve built for this district.
District 32 helped raise me, and now I want to be the voice for District 32 in Washington.
