Elizabeth Emken on Crime

Endorsed by author of 1994 Three Strikes law

Before his election as Secretary of State, Jones served as a legislator from Fresno in the California State Assembly. In 1990, his fellow Republican legislators elected him to serve as Assembly Republican Leader. In 1994, Jones received national acclaim when he authored California's immensely popular "Three Strikes" law. In an unprecedented act, voters placed an identical measure on the ballot that year, where it received 72 percent of the vote.

"Elizabeth's experience in financial management and beating back state and federal bureaucracies gives her the background necessary to fix Washington and advocate on our behalf. California is ready for the type of leadership and perseverance that Elizabeth has demonstrated through her tireless efforts on behalf of children with autism.
