Xavier Becerra, the former California attorney general and U.S. Health Secretary, has announced his candidacy for California governor. He emphasizes the need to address critical issues like housing, healthcare, and college affordability, stating that the California Dream is at risk. Becerra highlights his long-standing commitment to working families and California values, referencing his own immigrant background. He aims to tackle rising costs, ensure public safety, and promote economic growth for future generations as he enters a competitive race for governor.
"California is at a crossroads. From housing to health care, childcare to college, working families are facing an affordability crisis. The California Dream is slipping away."
"Whether defending workers against wage theft or parents in need of a hospital for their child, standing up for Dreamers or fighting for clean air and water, I remember my mother and father," Becerra said.
"Now, it's time to take on California's biggest challenges - tackling skyrocketing prices, keeping our streets and businesses safe, and growing the economic pie for the next generation of hardworking Californians."
