What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Tom Kim (R)

I am running to be your next State Senator because I want to pass on the opportunity my family fought so hard to protect. My business specializes in turning around troubled companies so that they can grow and hire. I have a unique understanding of economics and am the only candidate who can turn around our economy. Right now, we are living in fear due to rising crime, inflation is pricing us out of our own community, our public school system is blocking parents out of their children’s education and teachers are not receiving the pay and resources they need to teach our kids. I believe our best days are ahead of us and we will improve our quality of life by voting out the career politicians. Together, we can fight rising crime, reduce the cost of living, and improve public education by making sure our taxpayer dollars reach the classroom not the administration.
