You Deserve The Facts.
You may have seen my opponent’s recent claim about “Missing 900 Votes”, but there is a piece of the story that he conveniently leaves out.
I take great pride in being your voice in Sacramento and as a voter, I believe you deserve the facts.
Claim: “My opponent has missed over 1,000 votes in the Assembly.”
Facts: I have an A rating in both attendance and voting in the State Assembly. I received a call in the final week of our legislative session that my mother had suffered a stroke and was sent to hospice. I was forced with the decision to stay in Sacramento or fly out to visit my mom one last time before she passed away. I was given an “excused absence” by the California State Assembly for these unfortunate circumstances. There were approximately 600 votes in those final days that were missed, but I can ensure our district that their voices were heard on these bills throughout the process.
The additional “missed votes” were votes that I had abstained on. Even though I was present for the votes, I chose to abstain on these particular bills because I often feel like legislation is “half baked” and I have always been willing to work with the author on amendments to ensure the bill is as strong as it can be before I vote on it.
Leave Your Politics at the Door, and Let’s Talk Policy.
Claim: “It’s hard be bipartisan if you’re not showing up for the vote.”
Facts: I’ve always been willing to work across the aisle to move meaningful measures forward. It’s for that very reason that I was invited to join the Problem Solvers Caucus in Sacramento. Over my time in the legislature, I worked with many members of both the Assembly and the Senate to craft common-sense measures that work for all californians. Below is a breakdown of my track record:
Total Measures Co-Authored by Davies: 892
Democrat-Authored Measures Co-Authored by Assemblywoman Davies: 654 (73.3%)
Republican-Authored Measures Co-Authored by Assemblywoman Davies: 234 (26.2%)
People Over Politics.
Here’s the reality. That was an incredibly hard decision to make, but I know I made the right choice.
As your Assemblywoman, I believe people should come before politics …Apparently, my opponent believes otherwise.
