Our region deserves a State Senator with a track record of getting things done for over a decade. As a three-term mayor of the City of Encinitas and former city councilmember, I have supported small businesses, passed tough laws to crack down on guns and made our city one of the safest in California, and created a cleaner environment for us all.

My record of results:

• Protecting Small Businesses: Cut red tape and secured emergency grants to keep small businesses open during the pandemic.

• Strengthening the Economy: Managed the city’s economy, balanced the budget every year, and earned the highest possible credit rating.

• Passed Gun Safety Laws: Banned ghost guns and passed tough safe gun storage requirements and red flag laws.

• 100% Pro-Choice: Always stood up for a woman’s right to a safe, legal abortion, and supports Prop. 1, which constitutionally guarantees a woman’s right to decide for herself when, whether, and with whom to have children.

• Fighting Climate Change: Made Encinitas the first city to require 100% renewable power and adopted a gold-standard climate action plan.

• Results for Clean Transportation: Reduced traffic, cut pollution, and gave residents more clean transportation options.

As your State Senator, I will work to:

• Strengthen the economy, and fight high gas prices and inflation.
• Champion small businesses and create good-paying jobs.
• Will ensure a clean, reliable water supply for ourselves and generations to come.
• Protect our communities and neighborhoods from gun violence to save lives and reduce crime.
• Protect choice and keep fighting for the reproductive rights of every California woman.

I have the record of results we need in Sacramento to make sure every California family can thrive, and that’s why I’m asking for your support today.

I would be honored to serve you and I ask for your vote this November.

With gratitude,
