Issue Position: Fixing Our Highways and Roads

Issue Position

Anyone who lives in Orange County knows traffic congestion is more than an inconvenience. It is a disease that damages our entire community in many ways: from hurting our economy with lost time, to polluting our environment with cars left idling, to our pocketbooks with higher vehicle repair costs. In 2013 Sharon wrote AB 466 which brought nearly $50 million in federal funding to the Orange County Transportation Authority for projects that shorten commute times, lower air pollution and improve Orange County's transportation system. As an Assemblymember Sharon would be a leader in finding new and creative solutions to ensure California makes the permanent commitment to investing in our infrastructure and restoring our roads and highways to their former glory.
