I love Los Angeles, but our career politicians have failed us. I am a mother of four, a wife of one, a small business owner and for thirty years, I've been a working actor. My family fled the mobs and disarray that always result from corrupt politicians telling the citizenry to blame others for problems that they have caused and immigrated to the United States of America for freedom and opportunity. As a mom in a minivan, I've looked on for the past two years as the LA County Board of Supervisors defunded law enforcement, making our lives unsafe, and elevated the incompetents in charge of public health, who sacrificed our children on the alter of demands from unions only interested in money and concessions.

I'm running because the Board of Supervisors should be truly nonpartisan, and truly diverse. My children, career and even my ability to volunteer in my community and at school have all been curtailed by the four women who vote in lockstep. Supervisor Kathryn Barger needs another voice of sanity to join her.

  • Safety is Job 1. Everyone should be secure at work, at home and at school. I’ll support law enforcement by providing oversight and resources. We need a DA to prosecute crimes. Real Public Safety should be the first priority of our elected officials, as it affects everything else. For example, our traffic is worse than it should be because it's dangerous to ride public transit.
  • Public Health Matters. During the pandemic, we should have focused on protecting the vulnerable, like seniors, and not punishing the voiceless, our students and children. Asking hard questions of agencies we oversee, like LA Public Health, is a crucial part of the job. I will not shy away from questioning the non-medical personnel who destroyed so many lives, while ignoring the tragedy of the lost and broken souls dying on our streets daily.
  • A Thriving Economy is Possible. The over 200,000 business that call LA County home have been battered by arbitrary rules for too long. Every business is essential, and Los Angeles should be booming. Investments in our economy will only come when we have a governing body that welcomes and supports property rights.
I am most interested in integrity, cleanliness and competence.

Integrity

I will root out corruption that’s sadly endemic in our county governance. I’ll show up to work and listen to you. Too many backroom deals and big money players have dictated terms for too long. The LA County Board of Supervisors is one of the most corrupt operations out of the 3,200+ counties in the USA. I signed an honor code as a freshman at Davidson College that I still abide by. I will not support the money laundering that is too common in the county budget.


Cleanliness

Caring for the environment begins at home. Our streets are littered and filthy. Homeless encampments are dangerous for the sad souls who live there and for the public at large. As Admiral McRaven said in his famous commencement speech, start every day by making your bed. Coach John Wooden started each season with having players remove their shoes and learn to put them on properly. If we accept the disgusting state of our county's streets, we'll accept anything. Broken Windows doesn't just apply to policing...people can't access the services the county pays billions for if they're too disgusted to approach them.

Competence

We need to demand more from our local government, starting with telling them to return to the workplace, so that they aren't violating The Brown Act and are facing the people they purport to represent. I promise to work with a team that will get things done.





The power of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors wields over ten million people is immense.

Multitasking
The first job I had with an actual paycheck was working for Hardee's (fast food restaurant on the east coast). I worked for a summer, I think.
Chumbawumba, "I get knocked down, but I get up again."
YES! Cleaning out my email and my paper inboxes!
The BOS funds the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department, and as such, could save our county, reduce crime and solve the problem of homeless encampments by working with that department instead of defunding, defaming and defanging him.

Their responsibility for the libraries of Los Angeles are a small part of their budget, but a huge example of how they increase inequality by their incompetence and insistence on not doing their actual jobs. Libraries should be clean safe places for kids and adults alike who want to get a leg up on life by reading. Other countries don't have a free library system like the USA does. As an immigrant, libraries were my refuge and are a temple to independent learning. Ours are unusable thanks to the BOS.

Ballotpedia biographical submission form

The candidate completed Ballotpedia's biographical information submission form:

What is your political philosophy?

The Founders believed that citizens should serve in legislatures and then return home to live under the laws they'd passed. Career politicians are insulated from the consequences of their policy decisions. I'm a mother whose children won't be able to live in California if it stays on this trajectory towards less affordability and more crime. I emigrated to the United States and got to California as soon as I could, but families are being driven out. I promise to serve as a true representative of We, The People, to always remember that it's not my money, and to get out of the legislature to return to normal life after I accomplish my goal of unleashing the power of the people of California from the burdens placed on them by one-sided, unchecked power.

Is there anything you would like to add?

I'll happily speak to any group, especially those who can't believe that conservatives exist here in Southern California. Ideas should be shared and debated across the aisle, not hidden from. Find me on Twitter (@RoxanneForAD46) or Facebook (@RoxanneHogeForAssembly) -- and have a great day. California is worth fighting for![3]
