Eugene Montanez:  A Leader in the Inland Empire

GROW Elect was proud to support Corona City Council member Eugene Montanez in his election victory in 2014. He just completed a term as Mayor and he serves as one of a few Latino Republicans on the National Board of the National Association of Latino & Appointed Elected Officials (NALEO).

Eugene and his wife Paula own and operate a successful printing business. He approaches issues and decisions with a business owner’s perspective.  He has been an advocate for a balanced city budget, and is proud of the city’s ranking as one of the safest cities in America.

He has focused on the area’s need for jobs and transportation solutions.  He has been successful in working with large employers in the city in order to grow good paying jobs in the Inland Empire.  For example, he is proud of his relationship with Monster Energy in Corona and its 3,000 employees.

Eugene understands that economic growth and job creation in the region are dependent on reliable transportation infrastructure, and he has worked to support expansion of Highway 91 and other important infrastructure improvements.
