Shervin is the son of two Iranian asylum seekers who fled persecution in the wake of the 1979 Iranian Revolution. He was born in Bologna, Italy but his family settled in California’s San Fernando Valley when he was less than two years old.
Shervin’s education and career has focused on public service and social justice through the lens of public health, first in HIV prevention and harm reduction within the LGBTQ+ community, then with a national Indigenous healthcare advocacy non-profit. It was there that Shervin addressed water access, pollution, and food security in Tribal communities. Later as Director of Congressional Relations, Shervin successfully led advocacy efforts that resulted in the passage of critical legislation for Native American Veterans.
Shervin’s advocacy work on Capitol Hill made it clear: real change and real solutions require bold, institutional reforms that directly serve the working class and dismantle white supremacy.
We need Shervin’s bold, clear-eyed leadership in Congress. Can you split a grassroots contribution of any amount between Shervin’s campaign and Brand New Congress and help us elect this outstanding progressive leader?
Shervin has witnessed firsthand the political corruption that leads people to believe that things can’t be changed, but he also witnessed the power of organizing and what Congress could achieve if it served people and communities, not profit and corporations.
Shervin believes in people power and understands the struggles of millions of Americans who are demanding a government that works on their behalf.
Folks are tired of corporate-backed bench warmers; they are demanding true servant leaders. With your help, we can elect a bold progressive champion for working people.
Will you show your support by splitting a contribution between Brand New Congress and Shervin’s bold, progressive campaign for CA-30 today?
