Member of the State Assembly, District 60

Corey Jackson holds a doctorate in social work. He represents this district in the Assembly, where he chairs a budget subcommittee on human services. Before his election he founded SBX Youth and Family Services, a nonprofit mentoring group. He also served on the Riverside County Board of Education.

He says his nonprofit's advocacy helped produce a settlement that overhauled Riverside County's Youth Accountability Team program. He says that program treated thousands of young people, disproportionately youth of color, like criminals for minor misbehavior. He has authored bills on civic education and early childhood policy that were signed into law. This year he secured state funding to launch a new childcare district. His office calls it California's first childcare special district, serving Moreno Valley and Perris.

He promises to expand affordable housing. He wants to protect Medi-Cal and other safety-net programs. He says he will not cooperate with federal immigration enforcement he considers unconstitutional.

Ed Delgado spent 25 years with the Riverside County Sheriff's Department. They rose to Assistant Sheriff after 10 years in the U.S. Coast Guard. They have served on the Moreno Valley City Council since 2021.

Delgado says their motivation is the same one that drove their law-enforcement career. They want to protect people. In April 2026, Delgado voted with the council majority to keep funding a youth boxing academy. Two colleagues had objected that the program lacked required progress reports. The funding passed after the council added a new reporting requirement.

Delgado promises to focus on public safety, affordability and what they call a fairer deal for California's inland regions. They say the state should cut waste and audit spending before raising taxes.
