If Sacramento politicians refuse to provide us with desperately needed gas tax relief, the least they should do is provide full transparency into how much those taxes and fees are. My statement here: #capolitics

Imagine not paying your taxes or mortgage, not showing up to work, voting for big pay raises for yourself, then asking the people of California for a big promotion. That’s exactly what @MaliaCohen is doing. Watch my campaign’s new video below.

"The seeds of Newsom’s recall, though, were sown long before the first COVID-19 case appeared in California. Indeed, they can be traced to the lack of accountability that comes from one-party rule..."

Op-Ed: Newsom's recall is a predictable response to one-party rule

Seeds of anger at Gov. Gavin Newsom, which existed long before COVID-19, can be traced to the lack of accountability in state government.

How do we finally get accountability for the billions Californians pay each year in gas taxes? Here's a clip from my conversation with @loganbyrnes on @KUSINews about my three-part plan to ensure this money isn't just wasted by the Sacramento insiders.

I joined @SteveHiltonx @NextRevFNC to talk about the lack of accountability we have for spending on homelessness in CA -- including one taxpayer-funded program in LA that spent $800k to house a single homeless person. We need to spend smarter. As Controller, I'll make sure we do.

Only a Sacramento politician would think that failing to pay her taxes "brings credibility" to her campaign for Controller. Californians can't trust Malia to manage the state's finances when she can't even manage her own.

As a SF Supervisor, @MaliaCohen supported higher gas taxes on working Californians. She believes that politicians, not voters, should have the final say on future gas tax increases. We need our next Controller to be a watchdog for taxpayers, not a lapdog for Sacramento insiders.
