Denham's campaign website stated the following: {{#California's 10th Congressional District election, 2018|denhamthemes}}

2012

Denham's campaign website listed the following issues:[7]

  • Healthcare
Excerpt: "Americans need improved access to greater quality and more affordable healthcare. While we have the best trained medical professionals and the most technologically advanced facilities and equipment, our health care system is too complex and exclusive, and many individuals fall through the cracks."
  • Protecting Medicare Benefits For Our Seniors
Excerpt: "I won’t support any plan that will rob our seniors of the Medicare benefits they have paid into for their entire lives. They have earned those benefits. I want to guarantee that anyone over the age of 55 will see the benefits they deserve."
  • Economy and Jobs
Excerpt: "Currently, the unemployment rate in the San Joaquin Valley rests at an unacceptable 17 percent. We can turn this around and restore jobs to the Valley but it will require the adoption of pro-growth policies."
  • Veterans
Excerpt: "I am proud to have served my country in the United States Air Force, and I have tremendous respect for America’s military men and women who have consistently served our country with honor and valor."
  • Defense
Excerpt: "The most important duty of Congress is to provide for the defense of our nation. We must be prepared to fully support the needs of our troops in the field while preparing to meet future threats. These threats will come from other nations as well as terrorist networks that continue to threaten our way of life."

Issues

Poll on 2013 immigration plan

Several Republican members of the U.S. House may have faced a tougher path to re-election in 2014 because the Gang of Eight's immigration bill did not pass in the House in 2013, according to a Public Policy Poll released in July 2013.[125]

According to the poll, a majority of voters in seven Republican congressional districts said they were less likely to vote for their representative if he or she failed to support the plan. Public Policy Polling described the bill to respondents, saying that it would "secure our borders, block employers from hiring undocumented immigrants, and make sure that undocumented immigrants already in the U.S. with no criminal record register for legal status. If a long list of requirements is met over more than a decade, it provides eligibility for a path to citizenship."[126]

Denham represented one of those seven districts. Voters also reported in the poll that they were less likely to support Republican candidates in the 2014 general election if the Republican House members blocked this immigration proposal.[125] Voters in all seven districts had at least 61 percent support for the Senate’s immigration plan.[125]

In October 2013, Denham became the first House Republican to publicly announce his support of the immigration bill the Senate passed earlier in 2013, largely due to the efforts of the Senate's bipartisan Gang of Eight.[127]

Legislative scorecard

Capitol Weekly, California's major weekly periodical covering the state legislature, publishes an annual legislative scorecard to pin down the political or ideological leanings of every member of the legislature based on how they voted on an assortment of bills in the most recent legislative session. The 2009 scores were passed on votes on 19 bills, but did not include how legislators voted on the Proposition 1A (2009). On the scorecard, "100" is a perfect liberal score and "0" is a perfect conservative score.[128][129]

On the 2009 Capitol Weekly legislative scorecard, Denham ranked as a 17.[130]

Personal Gain Index

Congressional Personal Gain Index graphic.png
See also: Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress)

The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a two-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have prospered during their tenure as public servants.
It consists of two different metrics:

PGI: Change in net worth

See also: Changes in Net Worth of U.S. Senators and Representatives (Personal Gain Index) and Net worth of United States Senators and Representatives
Net Worth Metric graphic.png

Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, Denham's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $5,310,006 and $26,099,999. That averages to $15,705,002, which is higher than the average net worth of Republican representatives in 2012 of $7,614,097.96. Denham ranked as the 38th most wealthy representative in 2012.[134] Between 2009 and 2012, Denham's calculated net worth[135] increased by an average of 661 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[136]

Jeff Denham Yearly Net Worth
YearAverage Net Worth
2009$754,482
2012$15,705,002
Growth from 2009 to 2012:1,982%
Average annual growth:661%[137]
Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.[138]

The data used to calculate changes in net worth may include changes resulting from assets gained through marriage, inheritance, changes in family estates and/or trusts, changes in family business ownership, and many other variables unrelated to a member's behavior in Congress.

PGI: Donation Concentration Metric

See also: The Donation Concentration Metric (U.S. Congress Personal Gain Index)

Filings required by the Federal Election Commission report on the industries that give to each candidate. Using campaign filings and information calculated by OpenSecrets.org, Ballotpedia calculated the percentage of donations by industry received by each incumbent over the course of his or her career (or 1989 and later, if elected prior to 1988). Denham received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Crop Production & Basic Processing industry.

From 2009-2014, 30.37 percent of Denham's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[139]
