Assemblyman Jeff Miller presents to Irvine Rotary Club
Assemblyman Jeff Miller (R) talked about the policies and issues affecting local communities that are determined in Sacramento.
Jeff says revenues for the state fell short in September. How are we going to deal with this shortfall. There's no political courage in Sacramento, he says. We need to reduce regulatory burden in the state. Cuts will be made to the people who need the services the most.
He has served as both Mayor and a Councilman in the City of Corona, before being elected to the State Assembly in 2008 and re-elected in 2010 to represent California's 71st State Assembly district. The district spans the edge of Eastern Orange County and takes in the majority of Western Riverside County and encompasses cities of Anaheim, Corona, Eastvale, Irvine, Mission Viejo, Norco, Orange, Rancho Santa Margarita, Santa Ana and Tustin. His goals: keep the economy growing, the budget balanced, the community safe, and get the roads moving.
Jeff serves on the Assembly Higher Education Committee as well as the Insurance, Housing and Community Development and Transportation Committees. He passed AB2098 legislation to expand the 91 freeway and create 18,000 jobs in an area hit hardest by the recession.
He says he's fighting for major reform: Prison reform, Education (K-12 and community colleges). The ultimate goal for CA is to become a leader and attract business. Vote, and do your part to get the state and our community growing again.
