U.S. House, District 33

Your pick

Pete Aguilar (D, incumbent)

  • Key findings: Former Redlands mayor; in Congress since 2015; House Democratic Caucus chair. Won 2024 with 58.8%. [2][4]
  • As a leadership member, his votes track the Democratic caucus. His district office reports federal project funding for local roads and water, but I didn't find an independent tally for FY2026.

Stephanie M. Vargas (R)

  • Ballot designation: chief deputy clerk. She answered KVCR's questionnaire. [3][5] I found no independent reporting on her record.
