Jeffrey Flack completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2024. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Flack's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Education is the foundation for the future, and we continue to neglect it. More money isn’t always the answer. California needs policies that hold administrators accountable and engage parents in the social and educational development of their kids. Too many students have been left behind for too long.
- We need a comprehensive plan to lower costs and create real growth, not just for the 1% but for all of us. Californians face rising costs everywhere, from rent to gas to groceries. The traditional solution has been to expand subsidies and assistance. California faces a nearly $70 billion deficit. We do not have that luxury anymore.
- We deserve safe communities. California has had a multi-year experiment in mental health and criminal justice that has failed to make our neighborhoods safe. We need to reform or reverse many of the decisions that have caused increased lawlessness and disorder.
Broadly, I am passionate about making a better future for California. That involves reducing homelessness, integrating health care, and improving education and access to jobs.
Anyone willing to take on the challenge of raising the next generation and doing it well is a hero.
I don’t think anyone benefits when we cannot face reality together. Kicking the can down the road works only when the road is well maintained, and I think we all know in California that’s no longer true.
I think I have more respect for someone who says they voted for something because they received a campaign contribution than to pretend otherwise. At least they are honest.
The generation in power has forgotten that obligation and has saddled their kids and their children’s children with debt and disfunction because it was the path of least resistance.
I think as Californians, as Americans, we are only as good as our commitments to our Constitution and values. We cannot allow emergencies, or perceived emergencies, strip us of what makes us Americans. To that end, I think any emergency powers should be brief and only in the most urgent of circumstances, and executives should be held accountable for any abuses.
I don’t pretend to have all of the answers to all of the questions, and the solutions I walk in the door with may not be the best ones in the room.
The legislature is a deliberative body, and its members must work together to craft solutions that meet the needs of California. So compromise is not a weakness, but a strength.
