Candidates for California Governor Debate as Election Nears

“What I would do differently than Governor Newsom is fund homelessness prevention. It is so much more cost effective and so much more humane to prevent families from becoming homeless in the first place.” “Do you think the governor has done anything right on homelessness?” “No — everything has taken us in the wrong direction.” “It’s worth keeping in mind, the only housing Tom Steyer has built has been private prisons and ICE detention centers.” “I’m the billionaire who wants to tax the oil companies and make polluters pay. So when you say I’m the only billionaire in the race, yes, but I’m the person who is the change agent in this state. I’m the person who’s taking on the funded corporate interests, who are driving up costs for Californians in every place.” “So it is a deep honor for me to be endorsed by the president of the United States. And here’s the thing that’s going to help every Californian when I’m governor, is that we will have a constructive relationship and partnership with the federal government.” “Well, it’s interesting to watch someone who has served as a talking head on a Fox News program telling us how government should run when he never has run any government in his life.”
