Biography

David Goncalves Valadao ( VAL-ə-DAY-oh; born April 14, 1977) is an American politician and former dairy farmer serving as the U.S. representative for California's 22nd congressional district since 2023, previously representing California's 21st congressional district (2013-2019 and 2021-2023). His district comprises part of the San Joaquin Valley. He is a member of the Republican Party. Valadao was first elected to the House of Representatives in 2012 to represent California's 21st congressional district. He was re-elected in 2014 and 2016, but narrowly lost re-election to TJ Cox in 2018. He was re-elected in a rematch against Cox in 2020. Prior to serving in Congress, Valadao served one term in the California State Assembly, representing the 30th district from 2010 to 2012. A moderate Republican, Valadao was one of ten Republicans who voted to impeach Donald Trump during Trump's second impeachment and one of just two of that group to be renominated and reelected, along with Dan Newhouse. He was re-elected in 2022 and 2024.
