Political Beliefs
Political Philosophy
Do whats best for your community. At a time where we have mass wealth and income inequality in America, where single mothers are working 2-3 jobs, where seniors on fixed incomes are facing rising rents, whers 2/3 of californinas have no retirement, and where our healthcare system leaves many uninsured or under insured, I believe its time to ignore party politics and invest in our most important resources, the people of California.
