Assemblymember Kevin Jeffries took the oath of office in December
2006 to represent the constituents of the 66th Assembly District in
the California State Legislature.
A native Californian, Kevin moved to Riverside County in 1971 where
he has worked as President and partner of his family’s investment
firm for over 25 years.
Kevin has a distinguished history of public safety with 29 years and
over 4000 emergency responses as a Volunteer Fire Captain
specializing in logistics and resources for large scale emergency
operations. Additionally, Kevin served as grant writer and program
manager for the Riverside County Fire Department before being
elected into the State Assembly.
 Bringing
over 18 years of local government experience to the State Assembly,
Kevin has been an active leader in the region as a Western Municipal

District Director (8 yrs), Riverside County Local Agency Formation
Commission (LAFCO) Director (5 yrs), Lake Elsinore Parks and
Recreation District Director (2 yrs), and Riverside County Parks
Advisory commission member (2 yrs).
As a lifelong Republican, Kevin has a proven history of fighting for
families and taxpayers as a fiscally conservative pro-jobs/pro-small
business leader. Kevin’s adept ability to work in challenging
political environments has resulted in ten (10) of his bills
successfully passing out of the State Assembly in the first half of
2008.
 In
the Assembly, Kevin is the Vice-Chairman of the Public Employees,
Retirement and Social Security (PERSS) Committee, and sits on the
