–Assemblyman Jordan Cunningham announced that he has received the endorsement of the California Teachers Association (CTA).

“As a former Templeton School Board Member, I understand the importance of providing our teachers with the tools they need to succeed,” said Cunningham. “Education is a top state priority and is foundational to our economy. I am proud that my efforts to support and improve public education have been recognized by our teachers.”

Cunningham was first elected to the Assembly in 2016. Since then, he has focused on combating human trafficking and fighting to grow Career Technical Education (CTE). He successfully fought for permanent funding for CTE programs in the 2018-19 state budget.

After graduating from Atascadero High School, Cunningham graduated from Point Loma Nazarene University with a degree in physics. He then obtained his law degree from the University of California, Berkeley.

Prior to serving in the Assembly, Cunningham worked as an attorney in private practice, as a federal law clerk, and an attorney for the U.S. Department of Justice. He later returned home to become a Deputy District Attorney in the San Luis Obispo County District Attorney’s Office. He now represents individuals, families, and local businesses as the owner and founder of Cunningham Law Group.

Assemblyman Cunningham represents all of San Luis Obispo County and a portion of Santa Barbara County, including the cities of Arroyo Grande, Atascadero, Paso Robles, Grover Beach, Lompoc, Morro Bay, Pismo Beach, Templeton, San Luis Obispo, Santa Maria, and surrounding communities.

Cunningham lives in San Luis Obispo County with his wife, Shauna, and their four children. Their children attend public schools. To learn more about Jordan, visit www.JordanCunningham.org.
