Gavin Newsom have been sparring on televised debates and exchanging campaign attacks since April to garner the attention of voters statewide. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/california-relocation-journal.com\/?p=866\">Oxnard man smuggled baby crocodiles, among 1,700 reptiles, gets 5 years<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The candidates include a Riverside County  sheriff, a former senior advisor to British Prime Minister David Cameron, a former Los Angeles mayor, a billionaire hedge fund founder and two former members of the U.S. House of Representatives. <\/p>\n<p>Recent polls showed that the leading Democratic candidate is Xavier Becerra, a former U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services whose campaign is focusing on affordability and housing for what he calls \u201cworking Californians.\u201d Vying for one of the top two spots in the June 2 primary are Republican contender Steve Hilton, a former Fox News commentator who was endorsed by President Trump, and Democratic billionaire Tom Steyer, a hedge fund founder turned environmental warrior. <\/p>\n<p>Here is what the top candidates have said on important topics such as immigration, housing and homelessness, affordability and the entertainment industry. <\/p>\n<h2>Immigration and ICE<\/h2>\n<p>The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids that began in California last summer have been hotly debated by Democratic and Republican candidates.<\/p>\n<p>Here is what the candidates said during a debate in May or stated on their websites, as well as some criticism they have faced during the campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/california-relocation-journal.com\/?p=864\">Louisiana\u2019s Legislature has passed a new congressional map to give the GOP another seat<\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Xavier Becerra<\/b> vowed to protect and lead the state against the Trump  administration\u2019s attacks on immigrants and marginalized communities. Becerra\u2019s rivals have accused him of failing to protect migrant children when he served as  Health and Human Services secretary under the Biden administration.<\/li>\n<li><b>Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco<\/b> opposes \u201csanctuary city\u201d laws that block local law enforcement from assisting federal immigration agents, calls for the deportation of criminal illegal immigrants and says the border must be secured. But he has also faced criticism from fellow Republicans for supporting a pathway to citizenship for lawful, working undocumented people and telling his constituents that his deputies were not taking part in Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids.<\/li>\n<li><b>Former Fox News host Steve Hilton<\/b>, who legally immigrated to the United States from the United Kingdom, opposes California\u2019s state and local sanctuary policies, and said the state must cooperate with the federal government because the governor\u2019s job is to enforce laws, whether the governor agrees with immigration enforcement activity or not. <\/li>\n<li><b>San Jos\u00e9 Mayor Matt Mahan<\/b> plans to demand ICE officers be unmasked, vows to go after agents and immigration agency leadership when they violate the constitution and shield communities from unwarranted harassment. <\/li>\n<li><b>Former Congresswoman Katie Porter<\/b> said California should enforce its sanctuary laws statewide, \u201cso we don\u2019t have crazy cowboys taking the law into their own hands.\u201d <\/li>\n<li><b>Billionaire hedge fund founder Tom Steyer <\/b>wants to strengthen California\u2019s laws to ensure law enforcement agents can\u2019t profile Californians based on their race, ethnicity, language, occupation or location. He also wants legislation that will grant the state attorney general the authority to hold ICE agents accountable for violent and illegal acts on the job. He supports abolishing ICE. But he has faced heat on the campaign trail for his former hedge fund\u2019s investment in the Corrections Corp. of America, now known as CoreCivic, which operates private prisons around the nation that are housing people picked up by federal immigration agents. Steyer has repeatedly expressed remorse about his former firm\u2019s ties with the company and said he personally ordered the divestment from private prisons before he sold his stake in the hedge fund.<\/li>\n<li><b>State Supt. of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond<\/b> says he plans to levy a new tax on companies that operate ICE detention centers, fight to abolish ICE, protect California\u2019s sanctuary laws and work with  Congress to establish a pathway to citizenship. <\/li>\n<li><b>Former L.A. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa<\/b> supports helping law-abiding immigrants and said violent criminals have been deported under the state\u2019s sanctuary laws, despite claims to the contrary by Republican candidates. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Housing and homelessness<\/h2>\n<p>Here\u2019s what each candidate said about the need to address the state\u2019s housing shortage and its stubborn homeless problem:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Becerra <\/b>said he plans to cut \u201cunnecessary red tape\u201d and speed up \u201capprovals for projects that meet affordability and environmental standards.\u201d On homelessness, Becerra said he wants to establish a $150-million annual homelessness prevention fund to pay rents and fight eviction or foreclosure.<\/li>\n<li><b>Bianco<\/b> said he wants to end \u201coverregulation of our building industry\u201d and eliminate the California Environmental Quality Act, the California Coastal Commission and the California Air Resources Board. On homelessness, he wants cities to clear encampments and prioritize mental health and substance abuse treatment. He wants to force people to accept drug treatment \u201cwhen necessary.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><b>Hilton<\/b> proposes to reform the California Environmental Quality Act so that only government prosecutors can sue, preventing private individuals and organizations from stopping or delaying new housing projects. He also said he believes rent control measures reduce the incentive to build housing and wants to restructure or eliminate them. On homelessness, Hilton wants to build more low-cost group shelters instead of permanent housing. <\/li>\n<li><b>Mahan <\/b>said he wants to lower developer fees and taxes for infill housing. Mahan also said more homes should be built off-site in California-based factories, making them cheaper than building them on site. On homelessness, Mahan wants to make the state\u2019s Homeless Housing, Assistance and Prevention grant permanent and fund it at $1 billion a year.<\/li>\n<li><b>Porter <\/b>said she would \u201cgreenlight innovative building strategies, shred unnecessary red tape and create incentives\u201d to build needed housing. On homelessness, Porter wants more interim housing, emergency rental assistance and rapid rehousing programs. <\/li>\n<li><b>Steyer <\/b>is pledging to make it harder for large corporations to buy up the state\u2019s housing stock and wants to encourage cheaper methods of home construction. On homelessness, Steyer wants to expand interim housing options and homeless services.<\/li>\n<li><b>Thurmond<\/b> said he wants to build 2 million new homes for \u201cworking Californians,\u201d on 75,000 acres of surplus land that local school districts own. On homelessness, Thurmond wants to increase the number of housing units that include mental health and substance abuse services.<\/li>\n<li><b>Villaraigosa<\/b> said he wants to cut development fees and reform CEQA to speed housing development, particularly for infill housing. On homelessness, Villaraigosa wants to double the state\u2019s investment in Newsom\u2019s Homekey program to build an additional 10,000 units of permanent supportive housing over five years. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A comprehensive guide on the candidate\u2019s full views on housing and homelessness is here.<\/p>\n<h2>What the candidates have said about affordability<\/h2>\n<p>The candidates offered their ideas for making California more affordable during debates in April and May as well as on their websites.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Becerra<\/b> said he will stand up to price gouging and unjustified rate hikes and use the power of the state to lower prices \u201cwhere the market has failed.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><b>Bianco<\/b> says he wants to cut taxes for working families and businesses, stop the \u201cover-regulation on California\u2019s economy,\u201d support job growth and unleash the state\u2019s energy resources to lower the price of gas and utilities. <\/li>\n<li><b>Hilton<\/b> said he wants to eliminate income taxes on people who earn less than $100,000 and  on the first $100,000 for Californians who earn more than that. He also wants to end California\u2019s current tax on tips to ensure tipped workers keep more of their earnings. <\/li>\n<li><b>Mahan<\/b> said he wants to enact a \u201cGas Tax Holiday\u201d that ends or reduces the tax on gas. He also wants to remove barriers to building affordable housing by putting a cap on fees charged for new housing construction. <\/li>\n<li><b>Porter<\/b> supports single-payer healthcare, providing free child care and college tuition and making wealthy corporations pay their \u201cfair share\u201d in taxes. To pay for it, Porter would impose a progressive corporate tax, meaning more profitable businesses and corporations would pay a higher rate. She also supports ending income taxes for those who earn less than $100,000. <\/li>\n<li><b>Steyer <\/b>called himself the only candidate who is \u201cwilling to take on the corporate special interests\u201d that drive up the cost of living in the state. He said he would like to lower gas prices as well as streamline permitting, reform zoning and enforce laws to build affordable homes faster. He also supports single-payer healthcare.<\/li>\n<li><b>Thurmond<\/b> wants to provide a tax credit to make it easier for Californians to pay for the rising cost of gas, groceries and housing. He plans to establish a universal childcare program and provide low-cost loans to help small businesses make improvements at their firms.  <\/li>\n<li><b>Villaraigosa <\/b>plans to support a California Fuel Affordability Guarantee to cap gas prices for working families.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>The entertainment industry<\/h2>\n<p>Here\u2019s what some candidates have listed on their campaign websites about their ideas to support California\u2019s entertainment industry. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Becerra<\/b> supports state requirements that mandate productions disclose how AI is being used, cutting the \u201cbureaucratic friction\u201d of getting a filming location permit and vows to uphold the state requirement that ensures digital platforms share meaningful performance data with the cast, writers and directors.<\/li>\n<li><b>Hilton<\/b> wants to restore California\u2019s competitive edge as a place for productions by creating financial incentives for film productions, cover the initial and technical costs associated with the development of a film or television project and reserve funding for independent and mid-budget projects. <\/li>\n<li><b>Mahan <\/b>said he plans to expand and modernize production incentives, make them more competitive and ensure the protections are for everyone who works on a film or television project from the technical crew to writers, directors and actors. <\/li>\n<li><b>Steyer<\/b> said he would like to block corporate mergers in entertainment, defend and expand film tax credits and eliminate the regulations and hurdles for permitting and logistics that \u201cslow down productions.\u201d <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><i>Times staff writers Seema Mehta, Nicole Nixon and Andrew Khouri contributed to this report. <\/i><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/california-relocation-journal.com\/?p=862\">As Compton students ace tests, educators are baffled by Rep.
