Garcia and Briscoe, a longtime Huntington Beach-area school board member, finished in the top-two during the June 7 primary election.
The race for California’s new 42nd Congressional District, which covers much of Long Beach and southeastern Los Angeles County, is nearing its conclusion — and voters will decide whether the area maintains its democratic stronghold or swings Republican during the Nov. 8 general election.
The switch was thought to strip Briscoe, a longtime elected board member for the Ocean View School District in Huntington Beach — who ran and lost against Lowenthal for the 47th District in 2020 — of much of his Republican base. But still, he prevailed as the runner-up in June, with more than 26% of the votes.
“ Joe Biden’s very hand signed the legislation that put us in this spot for spending too much money on things that we don’t need to do with the economy the way it is,” Briscoe said, alluding to Congress’ recently passed $740 billion climate and health care investment package, and the Inflation Reduction Act — which has yet to“The money you have in your pocket buys half as much as it used to,” the Republican added. “These are horrible things.
Because some unhoused individuals report having experience with substance use or mental illness — about 39% said they had a serious mental illness or substance-use disorder, LAHSA’s report said — their sobriety should be checked by police on a regular basis, Briscoe said. “This would allow a judge to commit the twice guilty homeless person to long term treatment in a mental institution or jail as is appropriate,” the website adds, “for being convicted twice of being under the influence.”
“The first step,” he said, “is removing the administrative, bureaucratic impediments to building housing.” “Most people should have access to a proper permitting process that checks them out, and makes sure they’re not drug dealers or criminals,” Briscoe said. “You just live on the edge and their visas keeps getting renewed — it’s not fair to them either.”
