Fran Florez: A Lifetime of Fighting for Our Valley
Fran Florez is a roll up your sleeves, get the job done kind of leader.
For four generations Fran’s family has lived and worked in the Valley. She loves the Valley and wants to make it the best it can be.
As a former community banker, businesswoman, Councilmember and Mayor, Fran is not content to sit by while our jobs disappear and our children follow them.
She wants to go to Sacramento, roll up her sleeves and get to work fixing our state and local economy.
