    Dan Lungren represents California's 3rd Congressional District, which includes parts of Sacramento and Solano County, as well as all of Alpine, Amador, and Calaveras Counties.
    Congressman Lungren won the 34th Congressional District seat in California's historic 1978 "Prop 13" election year.  For ten years, Dan served in the U.S. Congress where he was viewed as a Republican leader in criminal justice and immigration issues. Dan left Congress in 1989 and returned to California when then-Governor George Deukmejian appointed him to serve out the State Treasurer's term of the late Jesse Unruh.
    During his two-term service as California's Attorney General (1991-1999), Dan helped author and later defended in court California's landmark "Three-Strikes-and-You're-Out" law.
    Dan is personally committed to enhancing the quality and depth of Congressional oversight of our government's intelligence gathering and analysis and the provision of homeland security. He is a member of the House Judiciary Committee and Homeland Security Committee.
    Dan and his wife, Bobbi, have three adult children: Jeff, Kelly and Kathleen and five grandchildren---Reagan, Julia, Jack, Alexandra, and Andrew.
