A Voice for the People?

By Olivia Davi / VOICE

�� John Uebersax: How would you handle immigration reform as a member of congress? Immigration is an important issue, but not as important as US wars and militarism. Maybe the real question here is why our politicians can’t solve what at face value is a straightforward problem. Let’s choose and enforce a sensible limit on immigration and resident workers. Everyone should be treated fairly in any case. Regulations should be clearly explained, and free administrative assistance provided to improve compliance. A cost-effective strategy is for the US to help Mexico and Central American countries improve their economies so people won’t have to come here. Ending the US drug war in Mexico and the destabilizing gang violence it’s causing might help considerably.

What should be done about Citizens United? Money in politics is an important problem, but not as important as US wars and militarism. Both parties have elaborate schemes to accumulate vast sums of campaign contributions. Each party accuses the other, and then comes up with a still more devious scheme of its own. The whole system is corrupt and inimical to democracy. But the solution isn’t to pass more laws, which the parties will only outsmart in new ways. Instead the change must come from citizens themselves. People should switch channels when a political ad appears on television, boycott candidates who collect massive amounts of campaign donations and vote for independents like me who don’t take donations and who run with ideas instead of ads.

William “Bill” Ostrander: How would you handle immigration reform as a member of congress? I support the DREAM Act. I would lessen the paperwork and transportation challenges for H2A Visa program for non-immigrant foreign farm workers – for which there are less competition challenges of American citizens. I would re-examine the H1B visa program for 85,000 special knowledge foreign workers that are hired annually for head of household jobs, which I believe is being exploited by large companies and institutions, and brings down wages and opportunities for American workers. These two visa programs clearly illustrate the paradox in our country’s immigration policy: low-skilled laborers are hurt when wages tend not to keep pace with inflation because immigrant workers are willing to work for less, which, in turn, holds down the cost of food, as well as the cost of construction and hospitality industries. Generally, the average American gains a very slight economic benefit from both legal and undocumented immigration. It is essential that along with our immigration policies, we re-invest significantly more resources into our post secondary education system and help people advance to higher paying jobs, while creating a base level of pay that allows American workers to perform essential jobs, while maintaining the basic quality of life enshrined in our constitution.

What should be done about Citizens United? The Citizens United decision must be overturned. While money is necessary in politics to communicate with constituents, candidates are forced to seek private funding for public office. This situation creates a clear conflict of interest. Ironically, our judiciary branch understands the ethical imperative of avoiding conflict of interest or even the appearance thereof, yet lawmakers who write the laws judges must decide upon see themselves as immune to such conflict. Among other activities, members of Congress spend 30 hours a week on the phone begging for money, which is more time than Congress spends in session. A constitutional amendment is unlikely anytime soon. Therefore, we must work to dilute the influence of money through publicly funded elections, enact better disclosure laws, clarify IRS rules on 501c4’s, require publicly traded companies to reveal campaign contributions, and require government contractors to reveal political contributions. SCOTUS needs to recognize that there is a compelling national interest for the many that supersedes the outsized influence of the few.

�� The Presidential Primary Election takes place Tuesday, June 7th from 7am to 8pm. Personally delivered ballots must be delivered by close of polls on June 7th. Mailed ballots are to be postmarked on or before June 7th and received by the County Elections Ofﬁce no later than June 10th. For voter registration information visit www.registertovote.ca.gov

Helene Schneider: How would you handle immigration reform as a member of congress? Our immigration system is flat out broken and needs a major overhaul. While far from perfect, I support the recent bi-partisan comprehensive immigration reform plan passed by the United States Senate that includes securing the border, a roadmap to citizenship for aspiring citizens in our country, and allows the millions of people living in the shadows to pay their taxes and formally and legally join our society. Not only is this the just thing to do, but according to the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office, it will help reduce our nation’s deficit and strengthen our economy.

What should be done about Citizens United? Congress should do everything in its power to overturn Citizens United. America’s founders envisioned a United States government composed of the people and by the people -- not the money. Unfortunately, since the Supreme Court’s disastrous ruling in Citizens United, outside political money has flooded our electoral process and corrupted our democracy. This decision gave millionaires and billionaires, as well as corporations and special interests even more power and influence in Washington. We need to fundamentally overhaul this new reality and protect public interest while preserving our democracy. The way to accomplish this is by enacting a Constitutional Amendment to undo Citizens United. This way, we can restore a level playing field for all voters in our democracy and give the power back to the people-- not the special interests. The only way to restore true integrity and transparency to our electoral system is to undo Citizens United by a Constitutional Amendment that gives Congress and/or the states authorization to regulate campaign finance and strengthen disclosure and reporting requirements so that voters know where money comes from, as well as how and when it is spent all in a timely, easily- accessible and downloadable format so that voters have a real opportunity to learn about who is behind outside money.

Matt Kokkonen: How would you handle immigration reform as a member of congress? I am sick and tired of the problem of illegal aliens. We have an invasion of illegals. The president tried to use his executive powers to admit tens of thousands of people to the United States. Fortunately the federal court as well as the appellate court has ruled against it as an unconstitutional power grab. We absolutely need to know who is coming here, be they refugees or workers. Candidate Carbajal wants comprehensive immigration reform. Unfortunately, comprehensive for him means that everyone should be admitted without question. Candidate Assemblyman Achadjian voted to give drivers licenses to the illegals in 2013 and for legislation in 2015 to give work permits to those who have come here illegally. What part of illegal don’t you understand? Employers need to use the E verify program. We do need an updated and workable guest worker program. I will also stop all federal funds going to sanctuary cities.

What should be done about Citizens United? US Supreme Court case “Citizens United” restored the right to free speech and the right to freely associate to unions, corporations and nonproﬁts advocacy associations. It banned foreign nationals and corporations from participating in American elections. Paradoxically, union members have a harder time in exercising their disapproval of union leaders’ political activities than do corporate shareholders who can sell the shares of any company with whose political views they disagree.

Benjamin Lucas: How would you handle immigration reform as a member of congress? The federal government has to change the penalty for crossing the border illegally from a misdemeanor back to a felony; but allow all undocumented persons the chance to register. They will be given 90 days to register, a DNA and ﬁngerprint requirement, veriﬁed legal address, issuance of a government registration card and after 7 years, citizenship will be granted as determined by immigration law.

What should be done about Citizens United? I would vote to overturn the ruling known as Citizens United. I feel it’s the underlying problem facing campaign ﬁnance reform. Candidates’ answers continue on page 25 - A Voice for the People?

Steve Isakson: How would you handle immigration reform as a member of congress? I am for securing our borders. Any nation must look at its security and immigration as an organized process whether it is from Europe, Canada, or Mexico (or anywhere else). However, for those people who have been here signiﬁcant lengths of time, they have integrated into the local communities and become a signiﬁcant part of the economies and makeup of character of those areas. They need to come out of the shadows and given legal status so that they can contribute, not live in fear, and be treated with the respect they desire.

What should be done about Citizens United? While Citizens United is a legal reality, it goes against all the concepts behind campaign ﬁnance laws passed by the Congress and Administrations. It is a loophole that needs to be legally sealed to help take big money out of politics. Politicians need to be more responsive to the people (humans) rather than the big money donors that representatives spend at least half of their time courting when they should be legislating. If that means a Constitutional Amendment to alleviate the problem, then that might have to be the approach.

Salud Carbajal: How would you handle immigration reform as a member of congress?

Justin Fareed: How would you handle immigration reform as a member of congress? The issue on immigration has existed in Congress for decades. Politicians on either side of the aisle have failed to address the issue due to partisan politics and the dysfunction in both parties. This is why we need to address it systemically by reforming Congress and looking at legislation on a step by step basis. The Central Coast has a unique understanding of immigration due to the needs of our local farmers and ranchers, as well as those using the student visa system to attend our colleges and universities. I will support a robust, fair and enforceable guest worker program, especially for our farms and agricultural industries, but the federal government must secure our borders and enforce our immigration laws. Additionally, a universal veriﬁcation system must be implemented so employers can make sure they are hiring employees legally. Legal immigration policies should be merit-based and support economic growth. This will ensure America maintains its standing as a worldwide beacon of opportunity.

What should be done about Citizens United? I’m a strong advocate for the First Amendment because without it, a democracy cannot stand. There is an issue with special interest groups and their influence on political insiders who only care about their next election. In order to reduce the impact of special interests from influencing our national policies, it’s necessary that we elect servant leaders into office instead of political insiders, and that happens through the voting power of the American people.

��

Millions of immigrants currently live in the United States without documentation and without legal protections, in constant fear of deportation. Central Coast agriculture depends on this work force and we need to make sure they can hire the workers they need legally and that those workers are protected under the law. When I immigrated with my family, it was legally, through a system that worked. Now that system is broken. The real answer to ﬁxing our broken immigration system is through comprehensive immigration reform that only Congress can enact. In Congress I will work to bring these immigrants out of the shadows and on a path of earned citizenship, so that they can contribute to our economy by paying taxes. These are families that, like all of us, want live with dignity, without fear and to contribute to our great nation.

What should be done about Citizens United? The campaign finance system as it stands is unacceptable, and in Congress I would do everything I can to pass campaign finance reform. We have to curb the amount of outside money being spent on campaigns without any transparency or accountability. I strongly believe that the Supreme Court’s Citizens United ruling should be overturned, and I’m proud to have End Citizen’s United, the most prominent campaign finance organization in the country, endorsing my campaign. In Congress, I will work to pass the Disclose Act to help shed light on the massive expenditures that currently go unreported.
