Furthermore, my ability to work with both Democrats and Republicans inspired former Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon to appoint me to the State Allocation Board, where I have been able to vote on and guide almost $30 million in funding to our local schools for infrastructure improvement projects.I stick to the ABCs when it comes to my district.
Lastly, the number one issue people tell me they are concerned about is crime. They want to feel safe walking their kids to school. I have passed bills to do things such as increase protections for domestic abuse survivors in AB 2308 and I am an honorary co-chair of Prop. 36 because I believe we need stricter penalties for things like retail theft and fentanyl dealers.The first thing I would do is continue my push to ensure our state is tackling our coastal erosion problem.
But we also need to protect our modes of transportation from climate change. I worked with Sen. Catherine Blakespear this year on SB 1098 so we can finally get the state involved in helping us secure a future for the LOSSAN rail line. We cannot keep having our bluffs be unstable and disrupt the rail for months at a time.
If we want to get serious with housing, we need to make sure our money is being spent properly. With over $24 billion in misused funds, I was proud to coauthor AB 2903 to require money spent for homelessness show how it was used. I support stricter firearm laws on those who have criminal records or shown they cannot be trusted with a firearm. Last year, I passed AB 303 so our local police agencies could work with our state Department of Justice and get information on people legally barred from owning a firearm. According to state records, there are over 24,000 people in the Armed and Prohibited Persons System database who should not have a firearm.
