State Politicians

Sacramento Democrats are pushing ACA-7 through the legislature to strip racial preference protections from California's K-12 schools—defying voters who rejected similar measures twice—while the 2026 governor's race takes shape around a stark divide between candidates backed by public sector unions and San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan, who is running on cutting state spending before raising taxes. With California facing $20-35 billion in projected annual deficits and union-aligned candidates like Tom Steyer, Katie Porter, and Eric Swalwell competing for endorsements from the same special interests that benefit from state spending, the question of who controls Sacramento—and whose interests they serve—is the defining fight of this election cycle.
