Alan Autry is a Central Valley legend whose remarkable journey embodies the American Dream. Rising from humble beginnings as a migrant farmworker in the San Joaquin Valley fields, Autry went on to become an NFL quarterback for the Green Bay Packers, a beloved television star as Captain Bubba Skinner on "In the Heat of the Night," and one of Fresno's most effective and beloved mayors.

During his two terms, Autry won re-election with an extraordinary 72% of the vote. His endorsement of AJ Rassamni reflects a shared commitment to putting Fresno families first and fighting for our community's future.

Leo Zacky understands what it takes to build and sustain businesses in California's Central Valley. A fourth-generation Californian, Zacky served as Vice President of Zacky Farms, once the largest privately-owned employer in the state.

"AJ was more than just a boss — he was like a father figure to me and many of the workers. Within a year, I went from car wash attendant to manager. AJ understands people and their situations. He'll meet you where you are — but you have to want to help yourself. He's more than worthy of your support."

"I worked for AJ at the Great American Car Wash in the San Fernando Valley from 1989 until he sold the business in 2005. AJ treated me like family — even when I was in a coma for 6 months, he continued paying my full salary and checked on me every week until I recovered. I still stay in touch with him and proudly support AJ for Fresno City Council."
