How To Get California Back On Track

By Bob Valentine

This piece discusses my plan to get California back on track.

We need to send Sacramento a message that we are tired of politics as usual, and instead will elect a candidate who wants to restore the California dream. It's time to stop the states out of control spending and I am prepared to do that if elected.

I am an independent businessman, an attorney and a successful community leader.

As a businessman, I understand how to create quality jobs and live within a budget. As an attorney and former judge pro tem, I've learned how to resolve conflicts by respecting the rights and interests of competing parties. As a community leader, I helped develop one of the most successful drug and alcohol recovery centers in Southern California.

Here's how to get California back on track:
1. Elect legislators who will say no to the public employee unions and renegotiate their inflated benefits and pensions.
2. Create a positive environment for businesses to invest, grow and generate new jobs and tax revenue.
3. Commit to quality public education by re-directing money from Sacramento back to local school districts and use technology to stream good teachers and new concepts into the classroom.

California can overcome the current crisis, but only if we elect new leadership with a new approach to government spending, business regulation and educational policy. That is the kind of representative I will be for our community.
