My name is Leon Sit, and I’m running as an Independent candidate for the California State Assembly in the 59th district. This is my official campaign website, where you can learn more about who I am, what I stand for, and what I intend to do if elected.
We can learn from history: In 2016, Californians narrowly approved Proposition 67, which installed a nominal fee for each single-use plastic bag taken from stores. Since then, millions of Californians have eschewed the non-biodegradable pollutants that were once commonplace. If we can use economic incentives to encourage Californians to make environmentally-responsible choices, then we can reduce the volume of plastic that goes into landfills and our environment for generations to come.
