<h4><span style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);">The Path Forward in AD65 — Fatima Iqbal-Zubair is the Working Families Champion We Need</span></h4><p>Recent polling conducted by New River Strategies in California’s 65th Assembly District shows an electorate that has yet to consolidate around a single candidate, with ample opportunity for Fatima Iqbal-Zubair to take either the first or second spot in the general election.</p><p>When we are able to respond to attacks leveled against her, her candidacy is resilient, and we believe she will ultimately succeed in advancing to November.</p><p>After voters hear messages introducing both Davis (using positive language mirroring her own campaign’s communications) and Iqbal-Zubair, Davis has only a modest 3-point increase in vote share, while Iqbal-Zubair’s shoots up by 16 points, leaving both candidates tied at 29% and well ahead of the rest of the pack. Iqbal-Zubair’s biography, which describes her as a champion for working families who will be laser-focused on making California affordable for everyone who wants to call it home, is clearly extremely compelling.</p><p><span style="color: var(--color-text-accent-primary); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text-accent-primary);"><strong style="color: var(--color-text-accent-primary); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text-accent-primary);">AD65 Democratic and NPP primary voters need to know:</strong></span></p><ul><li><p>In the Assembly, Fatima Iqbal-Zubair will work tirelessly to lower out-of-control costs and create opportunities for working families.</p></li><li><p>Fatima has worked with labor leaders to create good-paying jobs that help families get ahead, and she will expand on these efforts to make sure that everyone who wants to call California home is paid enough to live here.</p></li><li><p>She will also protect and uplift communities that are struggling the most, prioritize investment in affordable housing, and guarantee the human right to affordable and accessible health care.</p></li><li><p>Additionally, Fatima’s strong support for unions, along with her background in education as a high school science teacher and a co-founder of a youth robotics non-profit organization help demonstrate the values she’ll fight for in the Assembly: standing for working people and fighting for fair teacher pay and well-funded neighborhood schools so every child has a chance to succeed.</p></li></ul><p><strong>Her platform is:</strong></p><ul><li><p>Bring down the cost of living for working families. Rent, groceries, gas, childcare — every line in the family budget is squeezing people in this district. Fatima will fight to lower costs, raise wages, and make sure the people who keep California running can afford to live in the state they built.</p></li><li><p>Invest in affordable housing so families can put down roots, seniors can age in place, and young people starting out have a real shot at a home of their own.</p></li><li><p>Make health care a human right — expanding access, lowering prescription drug costs, and ensuring no family has to choose between seeing a doctor and paying the rent.</p></li><li><p>Stand with immigrant families against Trump's ICE raids that are tearing our neighborhoods apart. As an immigrant herself, Fatima knows our communities are stronger when every family can live without fear.</p></li><li><p>Fight for the dignity and safety of every community— with real investment in schools, jobs, and the services that keep neighborhoods whole.</p></li></ul><p><strong>The Contrast with Ayanna Davis:</strong></p><p><span style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);"><strong style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);">Voters also need to know more about Ayanna Davis and her track record as a career politician beyond what her finance reports tell us.</strong></span></p><p>What we know is Ayanna has accepted thousands of dollars in campaign contributions from the billion-dollar corporations that are making life more expensive and raising gas prices and housing costs.</p><p><span style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);"><strong style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);"><u>Big Oil (approximately $36,655 total):</u></strong></span></p><ul><li><p>Marathon Petroleum Corporation — $11,800</p></li><li><p>Phillips 66 Company — $11,800</p></li><li><p>PBF Holding Company (Torrance Refinery) — $11,800</p></li><li><p>California Independent Petroleum Association — $1,255.52</p></li></ul><p><span style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);"><strong style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);"><u>Housing / Corporate Real Estate (~$34,400):</u></strong></span></p><ul><li><p>Airbnb, Inc. — $11,800</p></li><li><p>Watson Land Company — $11,800</p></li><li><p>California Real Estate PAC — $10,800</p></li></ul><small><p><em>Source: California Secretary of State, Cal-Access, Ayanna Davis for Assembly 2026, Accessed 4/11/26.</em></p><p></p></small><p><span style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);"><strong style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);">The Bottom Line</strong></span></p><p>The next Assemblymember from AD65 will be a Democrat. The only question is whether this district sends a career politician funded by Big Oil, corporate landlords, and the industries driving up the cost of living or a fighter who answers only to the working families of Carson, Compton, Long Beach, San Pedro, Watts, Wilmington, and Willowbrook.</p><p><span style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);"><strong style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);">The polling is clear: when voters hear both candidates, Fatima Iqbal-Zubair's story moves them — and Ayanna Davis's does not. With the resources to get Fatima's message to voters and respond to the attacks already coming her way, this race is hers to win. The stakes for working families in this district could not be higher.</strong></span></p>

<p>In the Assembly, I'm going to focus on the things that actually make your life easier: bringing down the cost of housing so your paycheck isn't gone before you can buy groceries, and fixing a health care system where one surprise bill can undo a year of savings. I'll fight for people who are doing their part and just need the system to stop working against them."&nbsp;</p><p><span style="color: var(--color-text-accent-primary); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text-accent-primary);"><strong style="color: var(--color-text-accent-primary); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text-accent-primary);">– Fatima Iqbal-Zubair</strong></span></p>

<h2>Corporate-funded mailers and Fatima’s opponent have spent over $1.8 million spreading misleading attacks on Fatima Iqbal-Zubair. <em>Here are the facts.</em></h2><h4>Who’s Paying for the Attacks on Fatima?</h4><p>The mailers, digital ads, and TV ads attacking Fatima are paid for by five independent expenditure committees that have spent more than $1.8 million against her campaign. Fatima doesn’t take a dime from any of these corporations that are driving up your gas, grocery, and rent prices. Here are the big corporations and billionaires behind them, straight from their public filings.</p><h5>“Californians for Accountability” — $584,000</h5><ul><li><p>California Alliance of Family Owned Businesses: $549,500</p></li><li><p>Californians for Jobs and a Strong Economy: $150,000 — itself funded by PG&amp;E, Edison International, Chevron, Sempra Energy, Walmart, Amazon, Coinbase, and over 140 other corporate donors</p></li></ul><h5>“Grow California” — $655,000&nbsp;</h5><ul><li><p>Chris Larsen (Billionaire &amp; Ripple co-founder): $15 million</p></li><li><p>Tim Draper (Billionaire &amp; venture capitalist): $5 million</p></li></ul><h5>“JobsPAC” — $292,000 (California Chamber of Commerce)</h5><ul><li><p>PG&amp;E: $2.4 million</p></li><li><p>Sempra Energy: $2.25 million</p></li><li><p>Edison International: $2.25 million</p></li><li><p>Meta: $2 million</p></li><li><p>Sergey Brin (Google co-founder): $2 million</p></li><li><p>Uber: $500,000</p></li><li><p>Airbnb: $500,000</p></li><li><p>A McDonald’s franchisees-sponsored committee: $250,000</p></li></ul><h5>“Coalition to Restore California’s Middle Class” — $168,000</h5><ul><li><p>Chevron: $3.78 million</p></li><li><p>Valero: $2.5 million</p></li><li><p>Marathon Petroleum: $2 million</p></li><li><p>California Resources Corporation: $500,000</p></li></ul><h5>“Keep California Golden” — $97,000</h5><ul><li><p>California Association of REALTORS: $750,000</p></li><li><p>California Building Industry Association: $160,000</p></li><li><p>Philip Morris: $50,000</p></li><li><p>California New Car Dealers Association: $50,000</p></li></ul><small><p><span style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);"><strong style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);">Source: </strong></span>California Secretary of State, Cal-Access: Search Fatima Iqbal-Zubair and Ayanna Davis Independent Expenditure Spending, Accessed 5/25/26</p></small><h4>Fatima Iqbal-Zubair’s Property Taxes Are All Paid Up</h4><h5>The claim:</h5><p>Corporate-funded mailers attacking Fatima claim she failed to pay her property taxes.</p><h5>The facts:</h5><p>When you buy a home in California, the county sends property tax bills in two categories. Your regular annual taxes are usually paid by your mortgage company through escrow. But after a home purchase, the county also sends a separate supplemental property tax bill — and that one isn’t covered by escrow. It’s the homeowner’s responsibility to pay directly.</p><p>According to the LA County Assessor’s Office, this distinction is a common source of confusion for new homeowners — so much so that the office routinely receives inquiries about it.</p><p>That’s exactly what happened to Fatima and her family.</p><ul><li><p>April 2024: Fatima and her family purchased their current home.</p></li><li><p>Later in 2024: A supplemental tax bill arrived. In their previous home, escrow had always handled property taxes — and their escrow account was already collecting more than enough to cover this bill. Their mortgage company later refunded them the overpayment.</p></li><li><p>When they learned the bill was overdue: Fatima’s husband took time off work and drove to the county office in person. He paid the full $11,107.98 bill, plus the penalty, on the spot.</p></li><li><p>Before leaving: He asked county staff whether the account was fully settled. He was told it was.</p></li><li><p>Recently: They learned a remaining balance was still outstanding. They paid it online the same day.</p></li></ul><p>The account is now fully settled.</p><p>Fatima and her family paid every dollar they owed. They paid the penalty. They paid in person at the county office. The attacks are designed to make a routine homeowner mistake — one the LA County Assessor’s Office acknowledges is common — look like something more. It’s not.</p><p></p><span class="image image-base image-center" style="width: 80%;"><span class="image-inner-wrapper"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/048e26bd-afc4-4dad-89cd-a7272382a990/a3acfc51-84cb-42a1-8c96-15cc40161639/a3acfc51-84cb-42a1-8c96-15cc40161639.png?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C1310%2C1094&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="40" variant="base"></span><span class="caption" style="display: none;"></span></span><h4>Fatima Iqbal-Zubair Fixed Her Form 700 Paperwork.</h4><h5>The claim:</h5><p>Corporate-funded mailers and Davis’s own campaign claim Fatima “concealed” her husband’s income on her financial disclosure form.</p><h5>The facts:</h5><p>In 2020, when Fatima ran for office for the first time, she filled out California’s Form 700 — the financial disclosure form required of every candidate — without including her husband’s income. She didn’t realize the form required her to disclose her spouse’s earnings.</p><p>After the incumbent Assemblymember’s attorney filed a complaint, the FPPC contacted her about the omission, and she immediately filed an amendment to correct it.</p><p>The FPPC closed the case with a letter — the agency’s lightest case resolution, with no prosecution and no fine. The FPPC’s own letter documents the reasons for that resolution:</p><ul><li><p>Fatima was a first-time candidate</p></li><li><p>She did not realize her spouse’s income was required to be disclosed</p></li><li><p>She had no prior violations of the Political Reform Act</p></li><li><p>She had timely filed both of her required pre-election campaign statements</p></li><li><p>As soon as she learned of the requirement, she filed an amendment</p></li></ul><p><span style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);"><strong style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);">Fatima has filled out her Form 700 correctly in every campaign since.</strong></span></p><p>The attacks try to turn a first-time candidate’s paperwork mistake into a “pattern of dishonesty.” It isn’t one. It was a mistake, she fixed it, and the FPPC’s own letter spells out exactly why they closed the case with a warning rather than a penalty.</p><h4>Fatima and Her Husband Fazlul are immigrants who Fled War and Worked their Way into the Middle Class</h4><p>Fatima and her husband Fazlul live in Harbor Gateway with their family. Fazlul earned his Doctorate in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from UC Irvine and is a Chief Engineer working on satellite and radar systems. In his free time, he mentors a world championship robotics team — passing on his love of science to the next generation of engineers.</p>

As an immigrant, educator, and mother to a son with special needs, Fatima understands first-hand the hardships her neighbors face.</span></h4><h5>She’s running for State Assembly to provide a bold vision that protects and uplifts our communities by&nbsp;tackling the high cost of living, building affordable housing, and responding to our infrastructure needs.</h5><p>Fatima serves as legislative affairs manager and advocate for a nonprofit in Sacramento that focuses on advancing equitable environmental and democracy priorities through our state legislature.&nbsp;She co-chairs an alliance that has brought together both labor and environmental groups for the past year, working closely with labor to support high road and high quality union jobs, while also passing transformative climate policy.</p><p>Fatima has a knack for building coalitions and bringing people together to effect change and make progress on key issues for marginalized communities. She&nbsp;is the chair of the California Democratic Party’s Progressive Caucus, leading the largest state Democratic caucus in the nation. In this role, she has had many achievements, such as co-writing the state's reparations resolution and bringing together delegates of all faiths to pass a ceasefire resolution.</p><p>She leads a youth nonprofit STEAM leader at TeraWatts Initiative, which was founded to ensure equity in education for first-generation black and brown students to have access to STEAM careers.

<p>Fatima Iqbal-Zubair is an educator, a mom to a son with special needs, and someone who’s never stopped showing up for working families. She knows the struggle—the bills that pile up, the worry that keeps you up at night—and she’s ready to be our voice in the State Assembly.</p>

<span class="image image-base image-left image-tilt-left" style="width: 40%;"><span class="image-inner-wrapper"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/048e26bd-afc4-4dad-89cd-a7272382a990/d8d775e4-70fc-4391-9dda-c423e687d454/d8d775e4-70fc-4391-9dda-c423e687d454.avif?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C2048%2C2048&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="left" alignwidth="40" tiltdirection="left" variant="base"></span><span class="caption" style="display: none;"></span></span><h4><span style="color: var(--color-headline-secondary); text-decoration-color: var(--color-headline-secondary);">Fatima has spent her career expanding opportunities for working families. As an immigrant, educator, and mother to a son with special needs, Fatima understands the challenges our communities face.</span></h4><p>When she was just seven years old, as the Gulf War was beginning, Fatima’s family made the difficult decision to move to a new country and leave everything behind in search of stability and opportunity. Her father finished college and became an agricultural engineer, while her mother started a childcare service to help support her family. When her dad secured a job, they immigrated to Bergenfield, New Jersey, beginning their new chapter living out of a hotel while they searched for a home of their own.</p><p>From a young age, Fatima was always running toward something bigger than herself. Throughout her time as a student, she was consistently top of her class, excelling in science as well as in sports, and becoming a state champion in cross country. She attended Ramapo College in New Jersey on a full scholarship, where she continued to run cross country and track.</p><span class="image image-base image-right image-tilt-right" style="width: 50%;"><span class="image-inner-wrapper"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/048e26bd-afc4-4dad-89cd-a7272382a990/42e497e7-075c-46b2-8245-7af208ad97a7/42e497e7-075c-46b2-8245-7af208ad97a7.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=4&amp;con=20&amp;sat=-2&amp;high=0&amp;shad=-2&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=292%2C94%2C2532%2C1742&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="right" alignwidth="50" tiltdirection="right" variant="base"></span><span class="caption" style="display: none;"></span></span><p>Fatima began her career working as a tutor, which sparked her love of teaching. At Harbor Teacher Prep Academy, she worked as a cross country Coach, earning the nickname “Coach Z” from her students and leading her teams to their first championships. While working full time, she earned her teaching credential at CSU Dominguez Hills and started her career at a school in South Los Angeles.</p><h5>Education and Inspiring the Next Generation</h5><p>As a teacher in Watts, Fatima lived the realities of underfunded schools, overcrowded classrooms, and educators stretched thin without the pay, resources, or respect they deserved. She worked to help students who didn’t know where their next meal was coming from and with with too many students who were in foster care, unhoused, or working while going to school. She taught in classrooms with kids having to share outdated supplies, families worried about the water their children were drinking, and teachers who stretched themselves thin to manage classes that were far too overcrowded. As a mother to a son with special needs, she also navigated the challenges families face when our schools don’t have the resources to provide support and services for every child.</p><p>Watching her students struggle to overcome these disadvantages every day motivated Fatima to devote her free time to fixing our local schools and building healthier and more livable communities for students and families. She co-founded and still leads a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) youth nonprofit, TeraWatts Initiative, to introduce students to new career pathways and participate in regional competitions. In the summer, TeraWatts also runs a free camp for children and partners with local organizations and community gardens.</p>

<p>Fatima also served on the community leadership council for Watts Rising, a community-powered partnership bringing neighbors, local organizations, and public agencies together to make Watts healthier and more affordable. On the council, she helped implement a $32 million Transformative Climate Communities (TCC) grant for the community, delivering real, tangible investments in Watts. The grant created over 300 construction and permanent jobs, built 289 new affordable homes for working families, brought in 10 new battery-electric buses to reduce pollution, planted more than 3,000 trees, installed solar panels on 300 homes to lower energy costs, and transformed over 25 blocks with pedestrian improvements and urban trails—making our neighborhoods greener, healthier, and more connected for generations to come.</p><span class="image image-base image-right image-tilt-right" style="width: 50%;"><span class="image-inner-wrapper"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/048e26bd-afc4-4dad-89cd-a7272382a990/b3bf5dee-7bce-4a28-8e5c-15fcfae63160/b3bf5dee-7bce-4a28-8e5c-15fcfae63160.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C2048%2C1365&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="right" alignwidth="50" tiltdirection="right" variant="base"></span><span class="caption" style="display: none;"></span></span><p>Fatima works at a climate justice nonprofit and co-chaired an alliance that works with labor unions to support working families and bring better-paying, high-quality union jobs to California. She’s stood with striking workers at LAX, Starbucks, and in our public schools, and is proudly endorsed by unions like SEIU, California Teachers Association, National Union of Healthcare Workers, and AFSCME DC 36 because they know she’ll fight for working people in the State Assembly.</p><p>Fatima lives in Harbor Gateway (and previously lived in Carson) with her husband of over 15 years, Fazlul, and their 12-year-old son. They both bonded over their love of science and a passion for helping young people. In her free time, Fatima likes to spend time with her family, help out her Robotics team in Watts, go on runs and to her local gym in Carson, spend time outdoors, as well as keep up with her favorite shows.</p>
