Experience We Need

Juan Alanis started his career in public service on the day he turned 21.  That’s when Juan pinned on a Stanislaus County Deputy Sheriff’s badge and dedicated his life to protecting Valley residents.

During his 27 years in the Sheriff’s Office, Juan served as Patrol Watch Commander, acting police chief, SWAT Team Member and School Resource Officer where he worked closely with the Stanislaus County Board of Education to provide direction active shooting scenarios and guidance on how to make schools safer.

Elected to the Assembly in 2022, Juan has used his law enforcement experience to craft legislation that will help keep us safe. He has passed 19 bills into law in his first two terms.

Juan is currently the Vice Chair of the Labor and Employment, and Public Safety Committees. He also serves on Agriculture; Military and Natural Resources; Business and Professions; and Water, Parks and Wildlife.

Additionally, Juan is the Co-Chair for the Legislative Problem Solvers Caucus, which is a group of bi-partisan lawmakers focused on solving issues facing California with common sense solutions. He is also a member of the Legislative Hispanic and the Legislative Armenian Caucuses as well.

Juan and his wife, Barbara, have raised three children and he is proud to called the Valley home.
