Mar 18, 2025 04:22PM ● By Chad Bianco for Governor News ReleaseRIVERSIDE, CA (MPG) - On March 11, Sheriff Chad Bianco released the following statement in response to former Democrat Congresswoman Katie Porter entering the race for California Governor:
“Katie Porter is a failed progressive Democrat with a history of supporting policies that increased inflation, grocery, gas and energy prices. She is cut from the same cloth of the failed career politicians who created California’s cost-of-living crisis. We cannot expect the same people who created this mess to get us out of it. Californians deserve so much better.”
Bianco was first elected Sheriff in 2018 and has been a law enforcement professional for more than 30 years. Upon his election, Sheriff Bianco worked to stabilize the department’s finances, increase staffing, and rebuild partnerships with other law enforcement agencies. Despite unprecedented challenges, including civil unrest and a global pandemic, Bianco led the department decisively and was re-elected in 2022.

Sheriff Bianco faces the reality of California’s failed public policies on a daily basis. He has been a strong voice for reforming state law to once again ensure public safety across California. Most recently, he was a leader and vocal advocate for Proposition 36, which overwhelmingly passed in November 2024 and has started to return commonsense to California’s criminal sentencing laws.
Beyond his role as Sheriff, Bianco is a devoted husband, father, and grandfather. He and his wife, Denise, live in the Woodcrest area of Riverside, where they are active members of Sandals Church. He believes in faith, family, and service above self.
