United States Representative, District 30

This person holds your district's seat in the U.S. House of Representatives (2-year term).

This is your seat in Congress. Incumbent Laura Friedman, a Democrat, took 52.7% of the vote in June. Small business owner Scott Alan Meyers, a Republican, advances with her to November 3. This is the Burbank Glendale Hollywood Hills district.

House terms run two years, so this seat answers to voters constantly. One member of 435 can't move much alone — leverage comes from committee work and which party holds the majority, and California's delegation is the largest in the chamber.

House members vote on everything but specialize somewhere. Friedman's specialty is transportation safety and climate; Meyers runs on affordability and border security. In a district this blue, also weigh what kind of accountability you want from a safe-seat incumbent.
