ANDREW HAYES

California taxes are some of the highest in the nation. Like he did on the school board, Andrew will continue to fight to lower taxes like the "mileage tax" which would devastate East County's families. Hayes will start his taxpayer protection initiatives with immediate action to lower the gasoline tax.

Crime is out-of-control in California. We must restore law-and-order to the Golden State and make our streets and communities safe again - starting by ending the practice of secretly dumping Sex Predators in our communities, eliminating Prop 47 & 57, and ensuring law enforcement have the tools they need to keep us safe. That’s why Andrew Hayes backs the blue and they back him. He will always support law enforcement as they work to keep our families safe.

Sacramento has grown too big. We need to reign in big-government and restore the vision for a limited government where individuals take responsibility for their actions and government operates in a streamlined, cost-effective, and efficient way. That's why the East County Chamber of Commerce has endorsed Andrew; he has a proven record of supporting small family-owned businesses and cutting red tape.

Parents know what’s best for their children - certainly not bureaucrats in Sacramento. That’s why Andrew will take his experience as the pro-parent President of the Lakeside School Board and force Sacramento to get out of our children’s lives and allow parents to raise their children, like it’s supposed to be.

The federal government is failing in its duty to secure and protect our border. This crisis is causing a flood of fentanyl and crime, and has become a genuine national security threat with the recent apprehension of an Afghan national on the terrorist watch list at the border in San Diego County. If Washington won’t do its job, California should be looking at any and all ways to secure the border and protect our people.

California is in a homelessness crisis and something must be done. In the Assembly, Andrew will call for an immediate requirement that homeless individuals be provided the help they need, or face the consequences for refusing shelter, food, and assistance to get back on their feet.

Andrew Hayes has deep relationships in the district - that’s why over 80 trusted local officials have endorsed him, including Senate Minority Leader Brian W. Jones, Supervisor Joel Anderson, Supervisor Jim Desmond & County Assessor Jordan Marks.
