The Priorities

What Bob will work on for Lompoc

Affordability
The American Dream should be attainable again.

Housing, groceries, fuel, and power all cost more here than they should. Attack costs from both ends: more housing supply, guardrails against speculation, and new tools to help working families own a home.

Energy & Water
Reliable. Affordable. Clean. Secure.

Keep Diablo Canyon open, bring a national small modular reactor demonstration home to the Central Coast, and treat water supply as the infrastructure problem it is. Reliable, affordable power is the foundation everything else sits on.

Education
Real careers and real opportunity.

Not every good career starts with a four-year degree. Trades, apprenticeships, and technical training deserve the same standing and the same funding.

What this means for Lompoc

Lompoc lives next to Vandenberg.

The Central Coast’s place in national security runs straight through this town. Bob spent twenty-six years on advanced weapons systems and knows what serious technology takes.

Peace through strength.

Superior technology equals less war.

Knocking doors in Vandenberg Village

I did not start with much. My father went to prison, I moved in with my grandmother, and I dropped out of high school to work. The Navy gave me a second chance to earn a diploma, then a degree, then a commission.

That ladder is what Lompoc families are being priced off. Jobs are leaving. Home ownership is out of reach. The cost of living is untenable. I am running to put that ladder back where people can reach it.
