  • I’m honored to be endorsed by the Milpitas Police Officers Association.

In the State Senate, I’ll continue fighting for safer streets, stronger neighborhoods, and common-sense leadership that puts our communities first. 💙

Carmen Montano believes we need real solutions that match the reality of the crisis: mental health treatment, substance abuse rehabilitation, safe places for people to go, and accountability when public safety is at risk.
