Assemblyman Steve Fox has broken just about every promise he made to voters.  He vowed to protect taxpayers and oppose tax increases.  He's not only voted for tax increases and massive spending increases, but he's voted numerous times to undermine Proposition 13 and change the rules to make tax hikes easier.  He said he'd be a social moderate, but he's joined with the left-wing fringes of the Democrat party to push a radical social agenda.

We hold our elected officials to a high standard, and every vote they take on our behalf as elected representatives deserves an explanation, especially when their votes in the Capitol contradict what they've told us in our community.  In many cases, these votes are contrary to what candidate Fox promised.  In many other cases, he's been derelict in his duties as our representative, refusing to vote on bills of grave importance. 

Below is a list of just some of those bills:

 

Voted YES on AB 8, a 2.3 BILLION dollar tax hike extension on California drivers.
