Issue Position: Economic Freedom

Issue Position

The American Dream of self-achieved prosperity and success relies on the fundamental freedom to pursue one's goals. Here in California, we are losing the economic freedoms to achieve this. Our businesses are burdened with excessive regulations. And individuals and families are burdened with cost of living increases year after year from taxes and fees. This stifles businesses from creating jobs and opportunities and prevents Californians from achieving economic security. I believe in a limited government that does not impede opportunities for people to succeed. A government that creates an environment where businesses can thrive, and individuals and families can take advantage of these opportunities. Our state government should reflect the principles upon which our country was founded, keeping in mind the importance of "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
