Political philosophy:

Our state is facing critical problems with its budget and economy that need a strong hand to help solve them.

We need leaders who will fight to create more jobs, improve our schools, and increase access to affordable healthcare. But we also need effective, experienced legislators who can work well, in a bipartisan manner to end the gridlock that has paralyzed the Capitol.

I have a successful track record of bringing Democrats and Republicans together to make the difficult choices necessary to balance budgets.

I have passed a balanced budget on time for each of the last 17 years + 9 years on the Fresno School Board and 8 years as a Fresno County Supervisor + even during tough economic times.

I will work as hard in Sacramento to balance the State budget and make sure our tax dollars are used wisely, while protecting essential services.

My top priority continues to be tackling our area's chronic unemployment problem and bringing new, good paying jobs to the Valley.

Our Valley has a bright future. We've made progress but I know that by working together we can and will do even more!
