My name is Eden Cristo, I'm a Humanitarian, and I'm running for Congress in California District 43 in 2026.

Imagine a future where every citizen has a roof over their head, where communities thrive as one, and where leadership reflects the will of the people. I am running for Congress in California’s 43rd District because I believe in the power of humanity to shape a better world—a world where our children inherit opportunity, compassion, and hope. My mission is to build this future, not just for today, but for generations to come. In 2018, I turned this vision into action with the SheDoes movement, securing $40 million to combat homelessness. We housed over 1,000 women and children, giving them shelter, dignity, and a fresh start—proof that change begins with unity and heart.

My track record speaks to this commitment. I fought to pass Prop HHH and Measure H, unlocking vital resources for homeless services and affordable housing. These weren’t just policies; they were lifelines, weaving stories of hope into our neighborhoods. In 2025, I led the charge to shut down Atlas Metal Company in Watts, a polluter threatening the health of Jordan High School’s children. Its closure was a victory for our community—a testament to what we can achieve when we stand together. These accomplishments reflect my pledge: to listen, to act, and to deliver results that uplift us all.

I step forward as the Future, a Great Unifier, and a Humanitarian dedicated to the common good. I see a society rooted in equity and alive with possibility, transcending division to forge a shared path. Join me. Together, we’ll craft a tomorrow that’s prosperous, just, and united—a movement to shape history for our children and beyond.
