"Californians have a very simple question when selecting our next State Controller: Who do you trust to keep watch over taxpayer dollars? Lanhee Chen is the only candidate for Controller who will ask tough questions of the Sacramento insiders and ensure accountability for our state’s spending. As the Statewide Chair of the District Attorneys’ EDD task force, I understand how important it is to have a watchdog in the Controller’s office who will make sure we don’t send another $20 billion to fraudsters looking to rip off California taxpayers.”
"As we enter challenging economic times, it is more important than ever that Californians have an independent-minded Controller who will keep watch over how their tax dollars are spent. Californians need a problem-solver, not a typical politician, as their next Controller. Lanhee has shown the ability to transcend left and right to get things done, and I am proud to endorse him.”
"The Sacramento insiders have no interest in accountability for spending in our state. Tens of billions of dollars in federal aid were sent to California’s public schools during the pandemic, but we have little to no sense of how that money was used. We need Lanhee Chen in the Controller’s office to bring accountability and transparency to our state’s finances and to finally truly follow the money to show us where the money flows. A go-along-to-get-along Controller is the last thing our state needs during this critical time. An outsider, independent voice like his is why I trust and endorse Lanhee.”
"California workers and families are leaving our state due to high taxes and costs of living. As we recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s more important than ever to ensure taxpayer dollars are spent effectively and as intended. Lanhee Chen is the strong conservative leader we need to fight for California taxpayers as Controller. I’m proud to support him.”
