I, H. FUJI Shioura, hereby declare myself as the Independent candidate for our 50th Congressional District in the state of California. Like you, I am committed to making your voice heard in Congress. I also want Congress to return to what it was meant to be – a representative form of government that is only inspired and moved by the voice of the people. I will work hard for you and our families. I will also play a vigorous role in making our country, district and neighborhoods a safer and better place to raise our children, run our businesses, and forge a future filled with unlimited promise and opportunity.
As your Representative in Congress, I will fight to serve your needs. I will conscientiously listen to your concerns regarding quality education and smaller class sizes, helpful environmental legislation, energy independence and local economic development for the creation of better jobs. I will remain true to our federal Constitution. In all of my dealings, whether in Washington or here, I will remain a committed Christian.
I’m running for Congress to represent the people of California’s 50th Congressional District in the greatest state in America. I will fight for our Constitutional rights, a return to sound economic principles for small businesses, and to make sure that our federal government respects each and every one of us in our 50th Congressional District.
As a committed and veteran educator with real-world classroom experience at high school, middle school and elementary school grade levels, I know what it takes to make improve and modernize our educational paradigm. Having personally worked in Chicago’s most at-risk, dangerous and improvised schools, I know what works and what disastrous effects of inaction combined by doing businesses as usual. I will legislate for more federal funding for smaller class size and a statewide California school police department to make our schools the safest in the country. I will not wait to make our schools the best in the country. China, India and other economies will not wait for our educational bureaucracy in Washington DC, school districts and our students (tomorrows workforce) to become competitive. I’m here to make smaller class a top priority!
As a technologist will revolutionize our local, state and federal government workflow like never before to save tax payer dollars, guarantee transparency to expand genuine accountability.
I am also passionate about empowering our residents, local businesses and organizations to make a difference. When given the right tools, you and I together can realize America’s and California’s full potential. I will make our federal government transparent in a timely manner and more responsive. The outcomes that we demand as concerned residents and hardworking tax payers should be met.
As your next Congressman, I will make it my personal mission to provide services to you faster and more cost-effective than ever before. I will empower our 50th Congressional Office to be more proactive, while gaining the visibility and accountability you demand and deserve.
Like you, I am committed to making your voice heard in Congress. I also want Congress to return to what it was meant to be – a representative form of government that is only inspired and moved by the voice of the people.
I will also remain true to our federal Constitution by working hard to protect and expand our First Amendment, Free Press Clause and Free Flow of Information Act. I will also play a vigorous role in making our government more transparent and accessible to journalists, through the use of more time-efficient postings in social media.
I am excited and dedicated about taking Smart-Government technology initiatives to the next level, by promoting a modern 24/7 50th Congressional Portal that will:
- Empower, inspire and facilitate residents’ questions that will be answered in a timely manner
- Book appointments to meet with me as their Congressman, face-to-face,
- Accurately display all my financial dealings and those of members of my Congressional Office
- Volunteer to wear a GPS device during working hours, so voters may know how to locate me, to make it easier to meet me in person, so they may share their concerns. The GPS Congressional Candidate will work like an UBER and Lyft app.
- Invite press agencies like the ICIJ (International Consortium of Investigative Journalists) to have a desk dedicated in my office on Capitol Hill and San Diego.
- Deploy Facebook Live session in morning and closing of the day to inspire public input, Q&A and to offer a report summary to my constituents of my dealings of the day.
- Explore the possibility of opening several more additional 50th Congressional Offices to better serve our community, in addition to our Washington DC, El Cajon, Temecula Offices.
If you share my vision, I urge you to stand with me and help make it happen. Together, you and I can turn this election into a statement of faith and a loud cry for the need to have God’s leading in government put into practice, so that good legislation can be passed based on morality, as opposed to the harmful influence of perceived entitlements and special interests.
Let this coming election be the change you wish to see. Vote Independent. As a parent, educator, youth pastor and technologist, I will help to create bipartisan fellowship, introduce bold new ideas, and explore innovative solutions to the normal, business-as-usual approach that has infiltrated Congress for years.
I have many family and friends who are Republicans and Democrats and I do not distinguish by party affiliation. I am an American first, and I will continue to act like one. I am here to get the job done!
VOTE F-U-J-I, which stands for: FAMILY, UNITY, JESUS, and INTEGRITY.
Thank you for your time and consideration. You can reach me at (805) NOW-VOTE, or at: 2016@americacalifornia.com.
An American Government of the People, By The People, For the People of California.
I’m running for a new start, I’m running for us, and I’m very grateful for your support!
