SACRAMENTO - Assemblymember Dawn Addis (D-Morro Bay) issued the following statement about President Biden's announcement that he will not seek re-election:

"I thank President Joe Biden for his service to our nation. When President Biden first assumed the presidency, our country was in a dark place, grappling with the COVID-19 pandemic, job loss, and attacks on reproductive freedoms and LGBTQ rights. Since then, his Administration has left an indelible mark on our country by rebuilding America's economic strength, investing in its infrastructure, and restoring our values of fairness, decency, and democracy. President Biden's leadership has made our country better and has given us hope. I look forward to the work that his Administration continues to do and his ongoing commitment to all Americans."

Dawn Addis was elected to the California State Assembly in 2022 to represent the coastal 30th Assembly District, which includes San Luis Obispo, Monterey and Santa Cruz Counties.
