I am a fiscal conservative and social moderate.

I believe we must encourage personal responsibility.

Californians deserve an effective, efficient government that focuses on its core responsibilities. I support:

1) A balanced budget, on time and without tricks.

2) Schools that deliver diverse opportunities and solid results. I support more local control. I support simplifying state mandates so that more money will get to the classroom. I support vocational opportunities that provide good alternatives to college.

3) Border security and providing services to legal residents.

4) Fair legislative districts, not drawn by incumbents, who have a conflict of interest.

5) Protecting the environment and using Silicon Valley creativity to do it.

6) A death penalty that is fair, sure, and reasonably swift.

7) A strongly pro-choice position.

8) A healthy economy to provide jobs.

Our legislators need to work together to get results.
