Assemblyman Josh Hoover
On November 5, 2024, California State Assemblyman Josh Hoover was reelected to his second term representing the 7th Assembly District in Sacramento County. Assembly District 7 includes the cities of Citrus Heights, Folsom, and Rancho Cordova and the unincorporated communities of Carmichael, Fair Oaks, Foothill Farms, Gold River, Mather, McClellan Park, North Highlands, Orangevale, and Rosemont.
Josh is a passionate advocate for California families. His top priorities include making sure our community remains a great place to live, work, and go to school. He serves as the Vice Chair of the Assembly Education Committee and the Assembly Communications & Conveyance Committee. He is also a member of the California Problem Solvers Caucus, a bipartisan group of legislators committed to finding common sense solutions to our state’s biggest challenges. During his first term in office he authored and passed the Phone-Free Schools Act, landmark legislation to increase academic performance and protect the mental health of students across the state.
Josh also serves on the Assembly Select Committee on Serving Students with Disabilities. As the father of a child on the autism spectrum, he cares deeply about the integration and outcomes of kids with special needs. For his work advocating for students, he was named Folsom’s Young Professional of the Year in 2020.
Prior to his election to the Assembly, Josh served as a school board member in the Folsom Cordova Unified School District (FCUSD). He led the fight to reopen schools in his community, and as a result, FCUSD was the first district in Sacramento County to bring students back for in-person instruction. He also worked to balance the budget, protect taxpayers, expand mental health services, support school police officers, and improve student achievement.
Josh earned a bachelor’s degree in political science and public policy from UCLA and a master’s degree in public administration from USC. He lives in Folsom with his wife Nicole and their three children Ayden, Addison, and Austin.
