Top Priorities if Elected
  • My #1 concern is safe streets & safe schools. We've made progress in this area but improving crime statistics does not translate into feeling safe
  • I'm very aware of our schools' problems; my kids go to school in the district and my wife is a teacher so quality education is a big concern for me
  • Finally, we need to concentrate on infrastructure. This means good sidewalks, curbs, gutters, streets, street lights, code enforcement, etc.
 
Key Endorsements

  • Sacramento Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce
