Tom Campbell on Fixing California’s Broken Two-Party System

The Democrats have effectively had One Party Rule in California for the last two decades, with the exception of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s largely ineffective tenure as a Republican. The Since 1996, Democrats have continuously held a majority in the State Assembly and currently hold a dominant 62-18 supermajority in the 80-seat chamber. > https://twitter.com/Interior/status/1604968667824807936 Most forget what happened in the 1990s that permanently changed the balance of power. In 1994, Proposition 187 passed by referendum, with strong support from then-Governor Pete Wilson. The law banned undocumented immigrants from accessing non-emergency healthcare, public schools, and other services in California. Since then, Hispanic voters have largely voted as a bloc for Democrats, leaving Republicans all but irrelevant. Tom Campbell served five terms in the US Congress, and one two-year term in the State Senate. He created the Common Sense Party to combine fiscal responsibility with inclusivity to appeal to the wide swath of voters who want more choice in their political candidates. Sounds a lot like libertarianism, without all the baggage that the word carries. Is it too much to ask for an independent-minded politician who is neither bought and paid for by the unions, nor an anti-immigrant fanatic? The California Common Sense Party has aligned with Andrew Yang’s “Forward” Party [https://act.cacommonsense.org/move_forward_with_common_sense] movement – trying to break the “two-party doom loop,” and find common sense solutions. Tom Campbell joins me this Sunday to break the latest news about their plans to disrupt California politics. See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
