He's a good solid conservative, my State Senator and previously Assemblyman, and was a JAG attorney in the Marines.
I met with him personally a number of times to solicit information and help after my mother was murdered in 96 and he was quite helpfull with the little he could do.
I tried to get a bill introduced that would stop the practice of Ssn Bernadino County of decaring automaticly that anyone over the age of 55 was assumed to have died of natural causes. It didn't go anywhere since the leader of the Assembly at that time had plans to take the San Bernadino County Coroners job when he was term limited out.
Guess I left the county in time then!
