Known at the Capitol as “Gavin Newsom’s Chief Antagonist.”

California used to be the state where anyone could get ahead. It’s now the state many can’t wait to leave behind. For the sake of the state we love, I’m asking voters to take a chance on change.

Five years ago, I ran for the Legislature as an outsider. I had taught high school in inner-city Los Angeles, prosecuted cases against violent felons, and defended the Constitution in our courts.

Since taking office, I’ve fought to root out corruption at the State Capitol. I’m the only lawmaker who refuses all special interest funding. I’ve declined the annual $40,000 allowance and turned down a pay raise. I’ve acted to end perks like a private DMV office for legislators.

I’ve authored groundbreaking legislation on freedom of speech, public safety, school choice, criminal justice reform, and artificial intelligence.

Yet I’ve also seen that our state government is fundamentally broken. Our Capitol is rife with corruption. Our political leaders serve special interests rather than the public interest.

It’s why we pay the highest gas taxes while driving over the deepest potholes. It’s why we spend billions more on homelessness as the problem gets worse. In California, we sacrifice the most and get the least in return.

The people of California deserve better. If elected, I will immediately call a Special Session of the Legislature to address our failing schools, soaring cost of living, rising crime rates, and jarring homelessness.

It’s time to get back to basics and restore integrity to state government.

One thought on “Official Candidate Statement”
  1. I do not see anything about doing away with the fraud surrounding the Covid circus. When is the State of Emergency going to end, and when are we going back to a normal state of affairs? Seems as though California is set to be in a constant state of denial and perpetual fear of viruses. The Delta charade to be followed by the next variation inline? Only to find out months later that the current variant of Covid is no worse than the flu, and on and on.
