Read the answers from all candidates (who have responded).Questions & Answers
1. How will you prioritize the budget choices the Legislature must make to align the state’s income and spending?
Spending is out of control. The budget must be balanced by using honest revenue projections and cutting spending, while protecting core government functions such as public safety, transportation and education.2. What types of changes or reforms, if any, do you think are important to make our state government function more effectively?
The regulatory burden in California is crushing small business and driving employers to other states. Regulatory reform is key to restoring California's economy.3. Fees for public higher education have gone up dramatically and funding has been cut. Is this a priority concern, and if so, what measures would you propose to address it?
Let's start by scrutinizing excessive compensation for top level executives of the public university systems.4. What other major issues do you think the Legislature must address? What are your own priorities?
See above.
