The Guardian Fund

The Guardian Fund Led by Congressman Jack Bergman, MI-1, The Guardian Fund is one of the largest and most active veteran-focused PACs in the country.

The Guardian Fund is a political action committee established in 2011 by former Florida Congressman and Lieutenant Colonel Allen West with a mission to support conservative veterans and minorities running for Congress. The Guardian Fund is a political action committee established in 2011 by former Florida Congressman and Lieutenant Colonel Allen West with a mission to support conservative veterans

and minorities seeking elected office. In 2022, the PAC had a record-breaking year with 96 endorsements of conservative veterans and/or minority candidates. Of those, 94 made it to the November ballot and of that total 49 Incumbent Members of Congress, and 20 new Members-elect won on Election Day. Once again, Guardian endorsed the largest class of minorities and veterans in its ten-year history. Forty years ago, 70% of lawmakers in the House of Representatives and 78% of those in the Senate had served in the armed forces. The number of veterans serving on Capitol Hill has been imperceptibly declining since the early 1970s, largely a result of the World War II generation steadily leaving public office. The United States deserves to be led by individuals who not only understand our military but by those who have sworn an oath to be a part it. We at the Guardian Fund believe that veterans of the U.S. military embody a kind of dedication to this country that is second to none and possess an unmatched loyalty to preserving and protecting the United States and its conservative American values. The diversity of the American people is what gives this country its unwavering strength and makes the United States exceptional. With the demographics of the U.S. population in continual flux, it’s more critical than ever for there to be an accurate representation of the American people in government. For far too long, Republicans have been bound by a grossly inaccurate description of their party and battled against definitions of conservatism ascribed by outside groups. The Guardian Fund wants to help elect more conservative minorities to Congress so that Republicans from all walks of life are given a voice on Capitol Hill. We must ensure conservative leaders are elected who will stand as guardians of our constitutional republic, to restore our nation’s fiscal responsibility and strong national defense, limit the growth of government, unleash the free market and preserve the liberty and sovereignty of its citizens. The Guardian Fund will stand behind, and fight shoulder to shoulder next to conservative veterans and minorities who seek to secure a brighter future for the United States and its future generations.

Our Guardian Fund candidates are all working hard raising money and meeting constituents all across the country.

One candidate that we endorsed back in the spring is Monique DeSpain, OR-4. We are proud of the fundraising numbers she put up in the 2nd quarter!

For the second time in three quarters, political outsider Monique DeSpain has outraised incumbent Congresswoman Val Hoyle, a significant achievement and display of local support for a challenger campaign facing an entrenched career politician with a national fundraising apparatus behind her.

Guardian Fund is proud to support Trevor Nehls for Congress in Texas' 22nd Congressional District.

Colonel Trever J. Nehls (Ret.) enlisted in the United States Army in 1988 as an Infantryman, completing basic training at Fort Benning. Three years later he earned his commission as a second lieutenant. Over more than 33 years of service in the U.S. Army Reserve, he commanded Soldiers at the company, battalion, and brigade levels and led troops in Iraq and Afghanistan in defense of our nation’s freedoms, with an additional deployment to Kuwait. His service has been recognized with numerous awards and decorations, including three Bronze Stars and the Combat Action Badge, reflecting a career marked by courage, duty, and unwavering commitment to country.

Trever has led in both public service and the private sector. As the elected Constable for Fort Bend County Precinct 4 from 2013 to 2020, he managed a professional law enforcement agency responsible for enforcing state criminal laws and traffic codes with consistency, integrity, and accountability.

His conservative values are grounded in faith, personal responsibility, and the belief that parents, not government, should make the key decisions for their children.

Trever supports limited government, fiscal responsibility, secure borders, and the protection of constitutional freedoms, including religious liberty and the right to keep and bear arms.

Guardian Fund is proud to support Dr. Ralph Alvarado for Congress in Kentucky’s 6th Congressional District.

Dr. Ralph Alvarado is a Christian, husband, father, physician, and conservative fighter stepping up to fight alongside conservatives in Washington to fire up the economy, secure our border, and stop the woke agenda.

Dr. Alvarado was born in San Francisco whose parents were immigrants. Ralph's father is from Costa Rica, and his mother is from Argentina.

After college and medical school, he completed his residency at the University of Kentucky. For nearly 30 years, Ralph has served as a practicing physician, treating thousands of patients across Clark County and Central Kentucky.

In 2014, Ralph was elected to Kentucky’s 28th Senate District. Upon taking office, he became the first Hispanic elected member of the Kentucky General Assembly. He served in that office until 2023.

Dr. Alvarado is not a career politician. He is a doctor, a family man, and a battle-tested conservative. President Trump needs reinforcements in Congress and he is ready to serve.

Again, Guardian Fund is proud to endorse Dr. Ralph Alvarado for Congress in Kentucky’s 6th Congressional District! 🇺🇸

Ralph Alvarado is an America First Fighter for Kentucky's 6th District. President Trump needs more allies in Congress to deliver on his bold vision to Make America Great Again. Ralph is the fighter we need for Kentucky.

Guardian Fund is proud to support Micah Jones for Congress in Massachusetts 6th Congressional District.

Micah Quinney Jones is a U.S Army Veteran, an attorney, and is running for Congress because he believes that it is incumbent on this generation to take immediate and decisive action to restore civility and faith in our political process.

Micah was raised in a bipartisan household. His mother, a Democrat, worked as a college librarian, and his father, a Republican, served 25 years on the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD). Despite their political differences, Micah’s parents always encouraged healthy debate grounded in the respectful exchange of ideas.

Micah joined the Army and earned his commission as a Second Lieutenant in October 2011 as a Military Intelligence branch detail Infantry Officer. Micah successfully completed Airborne School and Ranger School. Upon graduating Ranger School, he received orders to the 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg. In September 2014, Micah deployed to Afghanistan to begin a year-long tour. During his deployment, he served as both an intelligence advisor to the Afghan Ground Forces Command, as well as the military aide, and security officer, to the Brigadier General in charge of NATO’s Rule of Law mission. Micah was honorably discharged as a Captain in July 2016.

Following active-duty service, Micah enrolled at Northeastern University School of Law. In law school, Micah served as a judicial intern to a US Federal Magistrate Judge in the US District Court for the District of Massachusetts. Following graduation, he began working in the Boston Office of the international law firm, Morgan Lewis.

Micah is running for Congress because he loves the United States of America, Massachusetts, and the greater North Shore and Merrimack Valley community his family calls home.

Aaron Flint is a decorated combat veteran, a father and husband, and a fifth-generation Montanan who has been fighting for our Western way of life every day on the radio. Now he’s raising his hand to serve Montana again by running for Congress.

Aaron grew up in Glasgow and the Flathead, from a working class family. After the terrorist attacks of September 11th, Aaron volunteered to serve his country. He spent more than 20 years in the United States Army National Guard and Reserves. He led combat patrols in the streets of Iraq and the mountainous outposts of Afghanistan and joined special operations. He retired with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.

Outside of his military career, Aaron followed in his grandparents' footsteps and went into the local news business. When the public trust in media began to erode, he stayed connected to Montanans on the radio—giving good people a voice and a place to be heard.

Aaron Flint is running for Congress because it’s time to fight back and course-correct: to make a high school degree worth something again, to promote trades and common sense, to manufacture and mine in Montana, and to make the Montana Dream affordable again.

The Army instilled in him a deeper sense of responsibility and a core belief that leadership requires putting others first.

Again, Guardian Fund is proud to endorse Aaron Flint for Congress in Montana’s 1st Congressional District! 🇺🇸

Guardian Fund is proud to support Jim Desmond for Congress in California's 48th Congressional District.

Jim is a father, husband, U.S. Navy Veteran, Delta Air Lines pilot for 33 years, former Mayor of San Marcos, and currently a San Diego County Supervisor.

His life has been dedicated to service, leadership, and getting things done — whether it's in the cockpit, the Mayor's office, or at the County level.

The hardworking families in the 48th District are facing real challenges that are being ignored — rising costs, a housing crisis, and endless gridlock in Washington. It's time for common sense to return to our government. We need leaders focused on delivering real solutions, not scoring political points.

Jim is running for Congress because he knows his community — its families, its challenges, its potential — he believes Southern California can be better.
