Education is the pathway to our children's future, and it should be the fundamental focus of the state education department. I will work tirelessly to preserve quality education where all students will be provided resources and support to excel in the field of their choice based on their individual aptitudes and talents. Public schools should not discriminate against any demographic and should treat all kids equally.
Parents have a right and duty to direct their children's education and upbringing. I will stand firm in defending parental rights in California.To solve the problem of a small percentage of abusive parents does not require the state to have authority over all parents.
Crime is on the rise, and I will stand with law enforcement to ensure our communities remain safe. Police need adequate support and resources to protect our families and children. Open ended bills like Prop 47 that provide infinite chances to get away with offences that have been reclassified as misdemeanors need to be amended. Criminals with a violent history, sexual offences, and severe mental disorders should not be given leniency irrespective of their economic conditions or ancestry. This only enables them to become repeat offenders. www.bscc.ca.gov/s_bsccprop47
I will promote free market economic policies while protecting the rights of employees, independent contractors and businesses. This will create a business-friendly climate to stimulate economic growth and create good-paying jobs for Californians.
California has spent $17 Billion dollars in the last 6 years and the problem has just gotten worse. I will support efforts to increase shelter capacity and advocate for policies that address the root causes of homelessness like substance abuse, mental illness etc. and call for accountability on spending and outcomes.
I will push for repealing AB5 so that independent contractors in all fields have the freedom to be self-employed if they choose to do so. The government should not be able to force people to become employees and take away their right to independence and earning on their own terms.
Californians face some of the nation’s highest taxes, impacting families, small businesses, and everyday citizens. I am committed to lowering taxes and making life more affordable for all residents. In addition, I will support affordable housing to provide every citizen the right to home ownership.
Despite a $100 billion surplus in 2022, the California Legislative Analyst’s Office projects a $68 billion cumulative budget deficit through June 2025. It's time to elect leaders who prioritize fiscal responsibility over reckless spending.
Our veterans deserve the best possible care. I will prioritize access to quality medical care, housing, employment, and education opportunities for our nation’s heroes without judgement or discrimination.
