Issue Position: Public Safety

Issue Position

AB 109, Prop 47, Prop 57, and other laws that allow the early release of inmates and the reduction of criminal sentences are endangering California families. AB 392 and other bills that make it harder for police to do their jobs simply make it easier for criminals to escape justice.I have a proven track record at City Hall, where I have taken a proactive approach to help our exceptional police and fire departments keep our neighborhoods and communities safe and secure. I have brought residents, business owners and the police together to identify and implement the newest approaches to effective crime prevention and pursuit of offenders, and to increase the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of emergency services, including restoring four police officer positions that were eliminated in the 2008 recession.

As your voice in the State Assembly, I will:

Work to overturn recent state laws that have caused the release of thousands of dangerous criminals.
Support our law enforcement officers who risk their lives to keep us safe.
Stand up for the rights of crime victims.
