Political Philosophy for Dean Florez

Dean believes that the secret of his success are is the core values that he learned growing up here in the Valley: hard work, discipline, learning to play on a team, belief in God, and determination. Dean always says, "Valley values are values for life." In understanding these values, Dean calls himself a "Valleycrat." A Valleycrat is someone who: will work hard to improve our schools, support our local teachers, fight for working people, won't raise taxes, and will hold the issues and interests of the valley as the number one priority.
