I am your law and order candidate. Your personal security, especially the security of your liberties, will always be my top priority.
I will support and defend our Constitution, which has stood the test of time. The Federal Government must return to its constitutional roles and reduce intrusion into our lives. National debt is soaring, causing inflation. Congress must balance the budget. My first job after college was working to solve the Latin American debt crisis 30 years ago. We were successful.Parents want the best for their children. Like Medicare, let’s empower families by allowing choice of providers. This is the single biggest social justice issue of our day.I am endorsed by the Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, San Luis Obispo and Monterey County Republican Parties.
Owning a home has always been the American dream, but for many Californians, this dream is out of reach. The cost of rent has also risen to a point that private housing in general is not affordable for many California residents.
In order to make housing more affordable, we must lower the cost and increase the rate of new construction. We can address rising costs by reducing state regulation of new housing construction, lowering the costs and barriers for attracting skilled labor to the construction field, and by providing more flexibility on materials used in housing construction.
We support limiting development fees, or more accurately “new home buyer taxes,” in order to lower the cost of building new housing. We support reform of the California Environmental Quality Act in order to reduce frivolous litigation that slows the speed and increases the cost of new housing construction. We support statewide restrictions on rent control in order to encourage investment in new rental housing.
The California Republican Party believes that every California family should have access to affordable housing options, near their employment, near quality schools for their children, and with access to medical providers necessary to meeting their healthcare needs.
