More than ever, we need a leader who can solve problems before they become crises. A leader with the courage to fight for our working families. A leader with the vision and experience to step up to the unique challenges we face in the 21st century.

Jim Beall has met those challenges time and again successfully as a Santa Clara County supervisor, as a San Jose city councilman, and as a state Assemblyman. That’s why we need Jim Beall in the State Senate now.

When costs for health care rose beyond the reach of hard-working families in Santa Clara County, Jim Beall passed state legislation to provide affordable and comprehensive health coverage for low-wage workers, saving local taxpayers millions in public health care expenses.

When traffic clogged our streets, Jim Beall helped get Highways 85 and 87 built on time and on budget.

And at the State Capitol, Jim Beall is leading the charge against drug abuse, mental illness, and alcoholism to help Californians – young and old – reclaim their lives and dreams.

Elect Jim Beall: a proven leader, a principled leader with unmatched experience. A leader who will speak out for what is right.
