Meet Kevin has a new vision for California: Here's a preview of his 20-Part Plan:

1. No state-income tax for the first $250,000: Effectively an instant pay raise.

4. Ending the Housing Shortage by reforming our over 482 building-and-safety departments into one, state-wide, streamlined building-and-development process. Hereby, encouraging the development of new communities through California and the redevelopment of abandoned/vacant malls, offices, and strip malls into homes.
5. Legalizing physical an online gambling, taxing revenues.
6. First state to implement a Carbon Tax, offsetting the need for the state-income tax.
7. Reforming the DMV & incentivizing tunnels & toll roads to end the traffic nightmare.
8. Community policing w/ non-violent inmates as supervised community workers.
9. Reforming our courts by increasing Small Claims limits to $100,000 and creating a new Small Claims BAR-style license.
