Rep. TJ Cox, D-Fresno, failed to disclose several business interests during his most recent congressional candidacies, including the fact that he sits on the board of a for-profit Canadian mining company, according to public records obtained by The Bee.
Cox, who defeated Republican incumbent David Valadao by less than 1,000 votes in 2018, has ties to dozens of businesses throughout the central San Joaquin Valley and beyond. He’s an engineer by trade who also is involved in health care, senior care, real estate development and mining.
His most recent campaign disclosure form, filed on May 15, 2018, lists about three dozen assets. He filed a similar form in 2017 when he entered the race for California’s 10th District. Cox eventually switched out of the crowded 10th field and into the 21st.
One of Cox’s businesses, the Central Valley Community Sports Foundation, is under the state’s microscope for failing to file regular fee reports and was the subject of a city of Fresno audit that found questionable bookkeeping habits.
