Democratic Party Endorses Amish Shah, Pia Dandiya for US House Seats

Shah is running in Arizona's 1st Congressional District, a seat currently held by Republican David Schweikert. Dandiya is contesting in California's 45th District, where Republican Michelle Steel is the incumbent.

The Red to Blue program targets districts that the DCCC believes can be flipped from Republican to Democratic control. The endorsements signal the party's focus on expanding its House majority in the 2024 elections.

Both Shah and Dandiya have emphasized healthcare, economic equity, and immigration reform in their campaigns. The DCCC's backing provides them with access to party resources, including fundraising networks and strategic guidance.
