Think how far we have come.
I am proud that together we saved this state from bankruptcy.
We reduced our structural deficit by nearly 75 percent.

We rescinded the increase in the car tax.

And we fully funded transportation and education.
And we became the only state in the union to ban junk food and sodas from our schools.
We created the Sierra Nevada Conservancy, the largest preservation of land in our state's history.
And we have record revenues flowing into our treasury.
We have done all of this while abiding by a basic Republican principle: we did not raise taxes.
Does anyone here doubt what will happen to our taxes if the other party reclaims the governorship? Think about that for a second. Republicans are the last line of defense against higher taxes, and I stand with my fellow Republicans.
Now, another bold thing we did was we fixed the worker's comp system and rates are already down by one third.
