“ As a County Supervisor, I reached across the aisle to work toward solutions that are best for my county-- not just one political party. By rolling up our sleeves and working together to get things done, Colusa County was able to build a new power plant, which has created numerous jobs and grown our local economy. We were also able to establish the first center of higher education in the county. Washington is broken, and Californians deserve real solutions and true leadership. My opponent is a career politician with a record of supporting failed, out-of-touch policies that have driven our nation deep into debt and burdened our small businesses with senseless regulations. If I am fortunate enough to represent the 3rd district in Congress I will fight for families and small business owners. ”
