## Resource

Steve Hilton, Republican gubernatorial candidate, is going all in on making California “Califordable,” targeting the state’s crushing cost of living with tax cuts for middle-income earners and government workforce reductions. He’s also rallying against a billionaire wealth tax, blaming 16 years of Democratic control for California’s affordability crisis. With the field shifting after a Democratic dropout, Hilton’s main opponent, Rob Bacaerra, has criticized his media background — a move Hilton dismisses as politically motivated. Hilton’s AI-generated ad paints Democratic leadership as a corrupt machine, warning voters that electing Bacaerra means more of the same. On the Tijuana River sewage crisis, Hilton calls for a state emergency to speed up cleanup, a stance Bacaerra supports — while Governor Newsom insists it’s a federal issue.
