MISSION

To serve as a compassionate advocate, address the challenges and promoting unity in Senate District 36. Develop a thriving and inclusive community, fostering growth and progress hand in hand with its empowered citizens, celebrating diversity, and building strong bonds for a prosperous future.

POSITION ON ISSUES

Creating a More Affordable California

Too many Californians face financial hardship, a burden exacerbated by the policies of career politicians. In the 36th Senate District, many are left underserved and overlooked. Jimmy is committed to being a leader who prioritizes their needs. As State Senator, he will work tirelessly to lower the cost of living, ensuring that current and future generations find reasons to stay in Southern California, rather than seek more affordable alternatives elsewhere.

His initiatives will encompass:

  • Ensuring housing affordability that accommodates the diverse needs of all Californians.

  • Improving and expanding access to affordable healthcare by enhancing the ACA and reinstating a competitive market, with a focus on serving vulnerable populations like the elderly and veterans.

  • Delivering immediate relief for past, present, and future student loan recipients through enhanced regulation and exploring avenues to reduce tuition costs at public higher education institutions.

Extending a Helping Hand

Recognizing that not everyone in need seeks a handout, Jimmy advocates for providing support that empowers Americans to pursue their dreams.

  • Addressing homelessness requires a comprehensive approach, offering confidence-building, mental health services, and resources for reintegration into society.

  • Homeless individuals seek stability and structure, and most importantly, hope. Jimmy aims to facilitate access to these vital elements, rather than simply offering housing.

  • To effectively combat homelessness, we need a proactive State Senator who can collaborate with various stakeholders, from government officials to mental health professionals and community organizations, to implement real solutions.

  • Supporting our veterans is an essential duty. Jimmy believes in providing them with the necessary health, mental health, and financial resources and opportunities, recognizing the debt we owe to these heroes.

  • As a small business owner impacted by COVID-19, Jimmy understands the importance of aiding local job creators. He advocates for reduced regulations, lower taxes, and improved access to funding, ensuring they can expand, hire, and contribute to our local economy. Relief should go to those who truly need it, not just well-connected political contributors.

Climate Action & Environmental Justice

Climate change is an urgent issue that demands non-partisan action. Jimmy is committed to preserving and enhancing our environment. He also emphasizes the need for practical, sustainable solutions that acknowledge the integral role of natural resources in our society, advocating for a balanced approach to combatting climate change.
