TurnCali to Greatness

THE PROBLEMS WE ALL SEE

Rules for Thee, But Not for Me

French Laundry Lockdown Party

While families were told to stay home and restaurants were closed, politicians dined maskless at exclusive venues with lobbyists and donors.

Rules for thee, but not for me

Prop 47 Crime Free-for-All

Retail theft and smash-and-grabs exploded after Prop 47 reduced many offenses to misdemeanors. Everyday Californians bear the cost while politicians remain protected in gated communities.

Safety for thee, chaos for me

Taxes & Business Exodus

Highest taxes in America. Companies and families continue to leave the state while Sacramento insiders enjoy lavish perks paid for by working Californians.

Pay more for thee, luxury for me

Energy Blackouts & Sky-High Power Bills

Extreme green mandates have driven electricity rates nearly double the national average with frequent blackouts and reliability issues.

Power for thee, blackouts for me

Failing Schools

California spends over $25,000 per pupil yet ranks near the bottom nationally in math and reading. School choice is blocked while elites send their own kids to private schools.

Public failure for thee, private excellence for me

Sky-High Fuel Costs

Fuel drives the cost of goods, commerce, and services. Heavy taxes, fees, and regulations — plus refinery issues — ensure California always has the highest cost of doing business.

Highest in Nation

$5.89+

per gallon vs national average

Taxes & Fees

~90¢

per gallon in state taxes, fees and mandates

Refinery Shutdowns

California has lost over half its refineries since 1992. Recent closures have cut another 17–20% of capacity while the state lacks the electric grid to instantly switch to 100% EVs.

Imported Dirty Oil

Over 65% of crude is imported from countries with weaker environmental standards than domestic production.

RESULTS FAILED DESPITE BILLIONS SPENT

Homelessness Crisis: Billions Spent, Results Failed

Over $24 Billion Spent

California has spent more than $24 billion on homelessness programs — a massive increase in taxpayer dollars — yet the number of people living on the streets has surged to over 187,000.

Tent cities are now everywhere — in neighborhoods that never had them before. We must enforce our laws, including the changes 70% of Californians voted for with Prop 36, while showing real care and compassion with practical solutions that actually get people off the streets.

State audits have repeatedly found billions of dollars unaccounted for or spent without measurable results. Even many Democratic leaders admit the current approach is failing.

Governor Gavin Newsom, through HCD, issued final warnings (Notices of Violation) to 15 California cities and counties.

Targeted areas: Atwater, Avenal, California City, Corcoran, Escalon, Half Moon Bay, Hanford, Kings County, Lemoore, Merced County, Montclair, Oakdale, Patterson, Ridgecrest, and Turlock.

These are primarily lower-cost, affordable Central Valley areas. Sacramento is targeting weaker communities while protecting wealthy coastal enclaves — classic king-like behavior.

Housing Crisis: More Red Tape, Fewer Homes

Politicians promise to fix the housing shortage, but their “solutions” create even more problems.

Endless Red Tape

CEQA lawsuits, high fees, and years of approvals make building slow and expensive.

Single-Family Homes Disappearing

New laws push dense apartments and multi-family units, replacing the California dream.

Green Mandates

Mandatory solar panels, EV charging stations, and strict energy codes drive up costs dramatically.

Result: Fewer Homes

Working families priced out while the shortage gets worse.

It’s time for common-sense housing solutions that actually work.

TurnCali's Choice

Not just vote red

Vote Chad Bianco.

Turn California Around!

Key Foundations of Chad Bianco’s Campaign

Tough on Crime

Enforce Prop 36 — 70% of Californians voted yes. Real safety for every neighborhood.

Lower Costs

Cut taxes, slash red tape on fuel, oil wells, refineries, housing, and put money back in working families’ pockets.

Expose Corruption

Audit every tax dollar. End the waste and return money to Californians.

For All Californians

Not for Democrats or Republicans — for California. Appeals to both sides.

Fuel costs ripple through our entire economy — from the price of goods on store shelves to the daily commute that working families rely on. Chad Bianco believes we must ease burdensome regulations on oil production, wells, and refining while we responsibly build out electrification, so California families aren’t crushed by sky-high gas prices today.

As Riverside County Sheriff with 30+ years on the streets, Chad Bianco is a lifelong Californian who has stood up to Sacramento’s failed policies. He is solid to the core and ready to Turn California Around.
