Transparency and Responsibility in Government

As informed citizens, we need to know how our tax dollars are spent. Our legislators must make earmark spending as well as all parts of the budget transparent to every voter.

Education

A well-maintained public education is essential to California's ongoing economic development. We must demand that our legislators put aside ideological differences and balance our budget not only by cutting back on spending but also by finding new sources of revenue.

Health Care

Quality healthcare must be available to all Californians. Legislators need to get rid of obstacles for doctors when treating patients and take the burden of healthcare costs away from businesses.
