Jones leads his caucus as the \u201cloyal opposition\u201d with<\/p>\n

a focus on bipartisanship<\/p>\n

SACRAMENTO\u00a0\u2013 A recent\u00a0Times of San Diego opinion piece<\/a>\u00a0touts\u00a0Senate Minority Leader Brian W. Jones<\/a>\u00a0(R-San Diego)\u00a0for his effectiveness in Sacramento as the Senate Minority Leader. The piece explains Jones leads his caucus as the\u00a0\u201cloyal opposition\u201d\u00a0with a focus on bipartisanship to make meaningful change as well as participating in the governance process of the state. Read the piece\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we reflect on 2023, I\u2019m proud of the bipartisan work we\u2019ve accomplished while also holding the Democrat supermajority responsible for major issues facing Californians such as homelessness, crime, and affordability,\u201d\u00a0said Leader Jones.\u00a0\u201cHeading into 2024, I plan to continue leading the\u00a0Senate Republican Caucus<\/a>\u00a0as the \u2018loyal opposition\u2019 and staying laser-focused on fixing California.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Times of San Diego opinion piece by Editor Chris Jennewein,\u00a0San Diego\u2019s Brian Jones Helps Build an Effective \u2018Loyal Opposition\u2019 in Sacramento<\/a>, explains Jones\u2019s effective leadership philosophy. Below is an excerpt of the piece:<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026 Jones is just one year into his second term and building a reputation for bipartisan effectiveness. He\u2019s focusing on California\u2019s issues rather than the latest culture war dust-up on national cable news…<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026Now he\u2019s building other relationships across the aisle, and points to success in the Senate with legislation such as an audit of the state\u2019s placement program for sexually violent criminals and the unanimous passage in the Senate of a law making sex trafficking of a minor a three-strikes offense\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026But his stance is not all bipartisan. He believes Californians are fed up with both the Governor and the Legislature, and pins the blame on 40 years of Democratic control\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026For now, he is arguably the \u2018biggest cheerleader\u2019 of a new bipartisan approach in Sacramento focused on getting things done for California and steering clear of the national political battles\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
