issues

 What are the most important issues in Our District and how will Lindblad tackle them if elected?

• Stop Strip Mining in Sylmar.
• Save the El Cariso Park Eucalyptus and Oak Trees.
• Stop oversized elder care housing complex proposed for 11762 Fenton Ave Lake View Terrace.
• Protect Lopez Canyon Restoration.
• Mitigate DWP Sediment removal and transport  from Pacoima Reservoir on Hubbard Ave major thoroughfare to May Site above Olive View Hospital.

• Capture, cleanse and store storm water, provide flood protection, increase water conservation, enhance habitat protection, and preserve open space.
• Stop blanket city-wide rezoning. Quality of Life.
• Massive unemployment. Lack of Green Jobs.
• Corruption and favoritism by the clique of corrupt electeds who represent developer and corporate interest. No addressing community interest by electeds of keeping neighborhoods integral.
• Education tuition hikes, student debt, classes lacking.
• Skyrocketing prices from commodity speculation.
• Foreclosures, the adverse impact on families, the neighborhood, and the community.
• Food security. Locally-grown produce.
• Publicly funded political campaign reform. Inequity of Citizen United: democracy to the deepest pockets.
• Compliance with SB 375 requiring development to meet transit-friendly, mixed-use, pedestrian-oriented criteria to meet 2020 required 1/3 global greenhouse gas reductions.
• Financial market seizure and freezing small business loans to expand or meet payroll.
• Dependence on oil-based economy.
• Gang injunctions over entirely of Sylmar merely suppress anti-social behavior.
• Availability and quality of water.
• Lack of adequate global warming mitigation to avert massive environmental and human catastrophes with human extinction looming.

I choose the high road in my campaign, rooted in the Green four pillars and 10 key values - my three campaign issues are encapsulated by supporting and advancing legislation to:

1) save our neighborhoods - by transformation of a failed-growth economy to a steady-state, 100% renewable energy economy, relocalized energy, get off the grid, rewilding, restoration of Tujunga-Pacoima watershed ecological services, mediation of home loans to halt foreclosures, to lower the loan value and payments to stabilize neighborhoods, families, and the community.

Relocalize water resources, energy, food. Climate-change mitigation & adaptation measures. Restore Tujunga-Pacoima Watershed.

2) stop payola politics - with a ban of all corporatist lobbying and campaign spending with implementation of public financing of elections.

Ban corporate contributions and lobbying. Implement public financing of elections.

3) protect rights, not raids - to ensure Human Dignity and fair Immigration rights by immediately ending immigration raids and deportations.

Ensure Human Dignity and fair Immigration rights for all. Healthcare is a right, quality universal single payer healthcare.

Focusing on water issues to wean the District away from dependence on water conveyed from long distances at high energy costs, sustainability and a steady-state economy.
Single-Payer Health Care - Guaranteed quality universal single payer healthcare for all.
Deployment of strategies and tactics to reduce and cope with climate change and promote a healthy environment.
Increase Parks and Recreation Areas
Emphasis on Early Childhood Care, Education, Mentoring and Sports to Prevent Gang Violence
Formation of a 39th Assembly District Representative Council
New Bus and Rail Lines Connecting Transportation Nodes
Expanded Mission Community College

Green Jobs. Restoration of Educational excellence. Restoration of Quality of Life by making Sustainable our Environment and economy.

Ingredients of solving the State budget shortfall crisis in my 2008 position paper: lowering the sales tax, insuring California's fair share of the Federal reallocations to the States, and closing speculative developer tax loopholes - are part of a August 5, 2010 proposal suggested by Senator President pro Tem Steinberg to recover Federal taxes directly to the taxpayer, making modest increases in taxes that are federally deductible, while dramatically cutting the state sales tax, closing an unfair loophole for big oil companies and delaying new corporate tax breaks.

The termed-out incumbent, my proxy opponent, was anointed by a Democrat operative to run for the Assembly in 2007 - counter to the same incumbent's stated boast to me in 2004 of becoming a City Councilmember (which pays a lot more) and he has represented only corporate interests ever since - look at his list of donors - 95% from outside the District and 95% corporate. The current Democrat officeholder elected to represent a mostly Latino working class district is not reflecting the urgency required of political leadership to transform our wasteful, consumptive society from pending extinction to sustainability - that both Democrats and Republicans refuse to address in realistic measures.

Landing as a freshman in the Assembly from the 2007 special election, he was not independent-thinking, but resorted to a gut-and-amend tactic usually employed not at the beginning of the Legislative session but at the end - allowing a developer to sponsor and write legislation removing the zoning power of Los Angeles, a charter city, raising the ire of neighborhood council activists, other elected political office-holders and the rank-and-file constituent. This behavior has epitomized the elected's preference of payola politics over the public interest - to a greater degree than many others in the Legislature.

My real opponents, the two Democrats, rake in corrupt, corporate, Lobbyist money to author and sponsor legislation, revoking their public duty as a lawmaker. I will never accept corporate donations, never have and never will.

Constituent concerns this year are more pronounced than ever before as the economy is entering a double-dip Great Disruption - but equally important as my campaign getting the word out, the ineptitude of my duopoly opponent - will act in a big way to defeat himself. His legislative record is an all-out assault on working people - as witnessed by no-end-in-sight hikes in foreclosures, fuel, energy, food prices, social spending cuts, and subverting compliance with California's climate change law - fracturing any duopoly voter loyalty. To counter the entwined ecological and economic collapses, we must 'together, hike up the mountain' borne of the transformation required to get off the grid, live closer to the land, conserve, to become more energy efficient and being frugal. The path out of this descent to consumption-driven human extinction will be full of patriotism - making sacrifices and taking care of each other in the transition off the oil standard and forward to a green-jobs and 100% renewable energy economy.

☆ top legislative priorities ☆

What are the major issues I'm raising through my campaign?


Jobs, Education, and the quality of life: a Sustainable environment.
Funding these critical priorities will come from:

Closing corporate loopholes in the current tax system will prevent urban sprawl, and bolster local intermodal rapid surface and rail mass transportation systems and businesses. Currently federal and state governments give hundreds of millions of dollars in tax subsidies to landlords and real estate speculators, interest write-offs, depreciation deductions, capital gain exclusions and other loopholes, exemptions and exclusions. These tax subsides do not help produce anything new of value to society, but only serve to enrich landlords and speculators.

Focusing on water issues will wean the District away from dependence on water conveyed from long distances at high energy costs, producing water sustainability. Lower impact development will yield more parks and recreation areas - for hiking, biking, and horse trails. Relocalizing the economy: water resources, energy, material goods and food production, will define a Smart Decline.

Social justice issues are inextricably tied to environmental justice and must be part of the environmental agenda. Once elected, I will remain Green, supporting and advancing legislation that reflect community needs, choosing the high road in my campaign - encapsulated around these planks:

1) we can save our neighborhoods - By lessening the most catastrophic effects of global warming by holding temperature increases to less than 2° Celsius, governments maintain their capacity to respond. By promoting a healthy environment, and sustainable living, by getting off the grid, transforming the failed-growth economy to a relocalized, 100% renewable energy, green jobs, steady-state economy, by restoration of Tujunga-Pacoima watershed ecological services by fully funding our 32 District-wide contaminated ground water cleanup projects, by implementing Greenways per Los Angeles 1968 Citywide Plan, by Los Angeles River wash rewilding and by protecting neighborhood integrity - basing development on bio-regional determinism, not developers. By ceasing neighborhood gentrification. By mediation of home loans to halt foreclosures, to lower the loan value and payments to stabilize neighborhoods, families, and the community to keep people in their homes.

2) we can stop payola politics - With a ban of all corporatist lobbying and campaign spending with implementation of public financing of elections. Halts lobbyist influence over land-use planning decisions.

3) we can protect rights, not raids - To ensure Human Dignity, build community and fair Immigration rights by immediately ending immigration raids and deportations. To reverse a long term trend of spending on prisons over education. Fully fund early childhood care, education, mentoring and sports to prevent gang violence. Health care is a Right, not a privilege! by guaranteeing quality universal single payer healthcare for all. read more

• Statistical data and quotes are from polls conducted by Fairbanks, Maslin, Maullin & Associates on January 26, 2009 and June 23, 2010.

Roughly two-thirds of California voters maintain that a strong economy and clean environment can go hand in hand.
Voters believe California should target its investments in ways that will support clean energy industries; offer benefits to the community that go beyond jobs; and support the goal of reducing energy use.
• 90% of voters say "in developing policies to address global warming it is very or extremely important to reduce our dependence on foreign oil."
• 85% of voters say "very or extremely important to reduce the long-term cost of energy."
• 81% of voters say "it is very or extremely important to reduce air pollution."
• 80% voters say "creating jobs in clean energy industries should be a priority."

Abortion and Reproductive Issues
a) Does the candidate consider himself pro-choice or pro-life? Pro-choice
b) Should abortion be legal only within the first trimester of pregnancy? No
c) Should abortion be legal when the pregnancy resulted from incest or rape? Yes
d) Should abortion be legal when the life of the woman is endangered? Yes
e) Does the candidate support requiring parental notification before an abortion is performed on a minor? No
f) Does the candidate support requiring parental consent before an abortion is performed on a minor? No
g) Does the candidate support sexual education programs that include information on abstinence, contraceptives, and HIV/STD prevention methods? Yes
h) Does the candidate support abstinence-only sexual education programs? No
i) Other or expanded principles:
FEMINISM AND GENDER EQUITY
We have inherited a social system based on male domination of politics and economics. We call for the replacement of the cultural ethics of domination and control with more cooperative ways of interacting that respect differences of opinion and gender. Human values such as equity between the sexes, interpersonal responsibility, and honesty must be developed with moral conscience. We should remember that the process that determines our decisions and actions is just as important as achieving the outcome we want.

Budget, Spending, and Tax Issues
1) State Spending
Indicate what state funding levels (#1-Greatly increase #2-Somewhat increase #3-Maintain #4-Somewhat decrease #5-Greatly decrease #6-Cessation) you support for the following general categories. Select one level per category; you may use a number more than once.
a) Education (higher) #1
b) Education (K-12) #1
c) Environment #1
d) Health care #4
e) Law enforcement #5
f) Transportation and highway infrastructure #1 (for intermodal rapid rail)
g) Welfare #2
h) Other or expanded categories:
Spending on education, seeding a Green Jobs economy, proving a single-payer quality, universal healthcare system, welfare and intermodal rapid rail will stabilize society and state government coffers so that law enforcement and prison spending can be reduced. Solving environmental problems and going 100% renewable energy will create new jobs, lower overall state government spending, create well-being, lower healthcare costs, and a healthier population and environment, and help to stabilize ecological services. Stop spending on subsidizing the oil industry!

2) State Taxes
Indicate what state tax levels (#1-Greatly increase #2-Somewhat increase #3-Maintain #4-Somewhat decrease #5-Greatly decrease #6-Cessation) you support for the following general categories. Select one level per category; you may use a number more than once.
a) Alcohol taxes #1
b) Cigarette taxes #1
c) Corporate taxes #1
d) Gasoline taxes #1
e) Property taxes #1 (Large Commercial business)
f) Sales taxes #5
g) Income taxes (low-income families) #5
h) Income taxes (middle-income families) #4
i) Income taxes (high-income families) #1
j) Other or expanded categories:
A split roll amendment to proposition 13 for business property to be assessed on a 'mark-to-market' every ten years, including residential rental property, regardless if the property is owned by a corporation, partnership, family trust, LLC or other entity. We support Proposition 13 that protects homeowners from displacement, and support property tax exemptions for small businesses that do not make a profit. We support a property tax system that makes a distinction between land (higher tax) verses improvements upon the land (low or no tax) to preserve land for public use, agriculture, open space, and encourage development in appropriate locations.

3) Budget Stabilization
Indicate which proposals you support (if any) for balancing California's budget.
a) Tapping into California's "rainy day" fund? Yes
b) Issuing the early release of certain non-violent offenders? Yes
c) Instituting mandatory furloughs and layoffs for state employees? No
d) Reducing benefits for Medicaid recipients? No
e) Privatizing certain government services? No
f) Other or expanded principles:
Close the loopholes of speculative, non-productive capital gains, true cost of carbon, developer loopholes- and other kinds of corporate welfare. The tax bracket historically was 80% plus and that needs to be be restored. Peg the millionaire and billionaire at high enough rates to reward productive, green industry growth and to plug loopholes of non-productive speculative greed. Sunset regressive tax policy by a phased elimination of state tax on lower income workforce wages and salary and sales tax compensated with a graduated tax rate on gross rents, gross business receipts and resource-based, carbon taxes.

Campaign Finance and Government Reform Issues
a) Should California hold a constitutional convention to rewrite the state constitution? Yes
b) Does the candidate support changing the requirement for state budget passage from a two-thirds vote to a majority vote? Yes
c) Does the candidate support limits on the number of terms for California governors? Yes
d) Does the candidate support limits on the number of terms for California state legislators? Yes
e) Does the candidate support limits on the following types of contributions to candidates for state government? Yes on 1) through 4) 1) Individual 2) Political Action Committee 3) Corporate 4) Political Party
f) Should candidates for state office be encouraged to meet voluntary spending limits? Yes
g) Does the candidate support requiring full and timely disclosure of campaign finance information? Yes
h) Other or expanded principles: We advocate for a Constitutional Convention in California, where a new governing framework can make possible: instant runoff voting, proportional representation to allow a pro-rata number of representatives from the range of ballot-status political parties beyond the duopoly, smaller sized districts for greater stakeholder representation, bio-regional determined boundaries of governmental districts and a ban all corporate lobbying and campaign spending with implementation of public financing of elections.

Crime and Public Safety Issues
a) Does the candidate support capital punishment for certain crimes? No
b) Does the candidate support alternatives to incarceration for certain non-violent offenders, such as mandatory counseling or substance abuse treatment? Yes
c) Should the possession of small amounts of marijuana be decriminalized? Yes
d) Should a minor accused of a violent crime be prosecuted as an adult? No
e) Should a minor who sends sexually-explicit or nude photos by cell phone face criminal charges? No
f) Does the candidate support the enforcement of federal immigration laws by state and local police? No
g) Other or expanded principles:
The US has less than 5% of the world's population, but almost 25% of the world's prisoners. The punishment-based prison complex is a failure, morally, fiscally and systemically. A preponderance of legislative initiatives creates more criminal infractions which expands the already runaway, double-digit billion dollar California Prison-Industrial complex. My green answer is removing jail time for victimless crimes, removal of 'three strikes' and using the expanded education dollar for educative, correction-oriented programs over punishment to reduce the prison system size. Fully fund educational programs, especially those for early childhood. Costs per student are far less than the cost per prisoner.

Economic Issues
a) Does the candidate support reducing government regulations on the private sector? No
b) Does the candidate support increased state funding for job-training programs that re-train displaced workers? Yes
c) Does the candidate support expanding access to unemployment benefits? Yes
d) Does the candidate support providing financial incentives to the private sector for the purpose of job creation? Yes
e) Does the candidate support increased spending on infrastructure projects for the purpose of job creation? Yes
f) Does the candidate support providing direct financial assistance to homeowners facing foreclosure? Yes
g) Does the candidate support suspending the sale of bonds that would finance the California high-speed rail? Yes
h) Other or expanded principles:
To avert governmental collapse, ecological and economic calamities, the Green New Deal's imperative points to a Twenty-First Century Civilian Conservation Corp to retrofit existing buildings meeting net-zero energy objectives and immediately reduce ghg emissions by 80%, expand parks and recreation area in a Smart Decline to relocalize energy, food and material production and exchange to replace the failed-growth economy with a steady-state, 100% renewable energy economy. Transit-oriented, pedestrian-friendly, mixed-use, in-fill community development based on net zero energy performance (with rate-payers generating on-site renewable power) - will help meet AB 32's mandate - encouraged with certified renewable energy credits - robust, articulated feed-in-tariffs.

“Bond dependent financing” only gives unjust enrichment to the already wealthy, taking from the bulk of tax payers - needed resources out of the economy. A Public-owned state bank, partnered with local credit unions and local banks that don’t take bailouts and make themselves outrageous bonuses, would put resources back in the economy. The mission of the state bank is to apply environmentally accountable, incentive-based investments in schools, student loans and local economies.

Education Issues
a) Does the candidate support national education standards? No
b) Does the candidate support requiring public schools to administer high school exit exams? No
c) Does the candidate support using a merit pay system for teachers? No
d) Does the candidate support state funding for charter schools? No
e) Does the candidate support the state government providing college students with financial aid? Yes
f) Should illegal immigrants who graduate from California high schools be eligible for in-state tuition at public universities? Yes
g) Other or expanded principles:
Renew the California Dream of free K-16 education for all. No better investment to make our future stable and sustainable. We support lifelong public education, with an emphasis on giving our young people the tools they need to navigate their way through the sources of information which will enable them to lead meaningful and productive lives. Decrease the student-teacher ratio in classrooms and increase the number of counselors, nurses, librarians and social workers. Provide smaller, more personalized schools and a greater diversity of choices. Promote & fund bilingual & second-language immersion education with trained teachers & appropriate materials.

Environment and Energy Issues
a) Does the candidate support state funding for the development of alternative energy? Yes
b) Does the candidate support state funding for the development of traditional domestic energy sources (e.g. coal, natural gas, oil)? No
c) Does the candidate support providing financial incentives to farms that produce biofuel crops? No
d) Does the candidate support state funding for improvements to California's energy infrastructure? Yes
e) Does the candidate support state funding for open space preservation? Yes
f) Does the candidate support enacting environmental regulations aimed at reducing the effects of climate change? Yes
g) Other or expanded principles:
The “No” answer referring to ‘Biofuel" presumes the definition to be algae fuel, developed with tax incentives in urban settings. "state funding" is defined to be the funding results from closing corporate loopholes and providing incentives for renewable energy investment. A transformation is desired of the current failed "growth economy" via a Green New Deal, Smart Decline and relocalization to a steady-state economy, with a transition to a 100% renewable energy economy by 2015.

Gun Issues
a) Does the candidate support restrictions on the purchase and possession of guns? Yes
b) Does the candidate support requiring background checks on gun sales between private citizens at gun shows? Yes
c) Does the candidate support allowing individuals to carry concealed guns? No
d) Does the candidate support requiring a license for gun possession? Yes
e) Other or expanded principles:
NON-VIOLENCE
It is essential that we develop effective alternatives to society’s current patterns of violence. We will work to demilitarize, and eliminate weapons of mass destruction, without being naive about the intentions of other governments. We recognize the need for self-defense and the defense of others who are in helpless situations. We promote non-violent methods to oppose practices and policies with which we disagree, and will guide our actions toward lasting personal, community and global peace.
Mexico's drug cartels rely on armaments being imported from the US into Mexico. The US is the top destination for Mexico's cartel drug trafficking. The drug insurgency in Mexico has its origins in the US, so the US is responsible for, and must extinguish it’s insatiable demand for drugs and curb the US export of arms into Mexico.

Health Issues
a) Does the candidate support the establishment of a single-payer, publicly-administered health care system for California? Yes
b) Does the candidate support a universally-accessible, publicly-administered health insurance option? Yes
c) Does the candidate support expanding access to health care through commercial health insurance reform? No
d) Does the candidate support interstate health insurance compacts? No
e) Should individuals be required to purchase health care insurance? No
f) Does the candidate support monetary limits on damages that can be collected in malpractice lawsuits? No
g) Does the candidate support legalizing physician-assisted suicide in California? Yes
h) Does the candidate support allowing doctors to prescribe marijuana to their patients for medicinal purposes? Yes
i) Other or expanded principles;
A guaranteed quality universal single payer healthcare for all! Removing Big Insurance, Big Pharmaceutical, and all Lobbyist influence over healthcare legislation and administration saves 30% in healthcare costs over the current privatized, for profit structure. Healthcare is a right, not a privilege! A healthy public lowers the cost of government.

Social Issues
a) Should marriage only be between one man and one woman? No
b) Should California allow same-sex couples to form domestic partnerships? Yes
c) Does the candidate support state funding for stem cell research? Yes
d) Does the candidate support state funding for embryonic stem cell research? Yes
e) Does the candidate support the state's use of affirmative action? Yes
f) Does the candidate support the inclusion of sexual orientation in California's anti-discrimination laws? Yes
g) Does the candidate support the inclusion of gender identity in California's anti-discrimination laws? Yes
h) Other or expanded principles:
SOCIAL JUSTICE AND EQUAL OPPORTUNITY
All persons should have the rights and opportunity to benefit equally from the resources afforded us by society and the environment. We must consciously confront in ourselves, our organizations, and society at large, barriers such as racism and class oppression, sexism and homophobia, ageism and disability, which act to deny fair treatment and equal justice under the law. Race, gender affirmative actions attempt to include specific groups that have a history of being excluded regardless of their economic status or level of education.

Most organized religion calls for society to be stewards of the planet, not abusers, plunderers and destroyers of life and ecological services (natural resources).

The winner of the alternate to the Nobel prize, the Right Livelihood Award in 1983 sets forth his views of economics as opposed to most economists views that growth is unlimited:

MANFRED MAX-NEEF: The principles, you know, of an economics which should be are based in five postulates and one fundamental value principle.

One, the economy is to serve the people and not the people to serve the economy.

Two, development is about people and not about objects.

Three, growth is not the same as development, and development does not necessarily require growth.

Four, no economy is possible in the absence of ecosystem services.

Five, the economy is a subsystem of a larger finite system, the biosphere, hence permanent growth is impossible.

And the fundamental value to sustain a new economy should be that no economic interest, under no circumstance, can be above the reverence of life.

Mega Disasters: Oil Apocalypse




Zeitgeist - The Movie








The science is clear: global warming is happening faster than ever and humans are responsible. Global warming is caused by releasing what are called greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The most common greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide. Many of the activities we do every day like turn the lights on, cook food, or heat or cool our homes rely on energy sources like coal and oil that emit carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases. This is a major problem because global warming destabilizes the delicate balance that makes life on this planet possible. Just a few degrees in temperature can completely change the world as we know it, and threaten the lives of millions of people around the world. But don't give up hope! Watch the 90 second animation here at 350.org. You can help stop global warming by taking action!


What does this 350 number even mean?
350 is the number that leading scientists say is the safe upper limit for carbon dioxide in our atmosphere. Scientists measure carbon dioxide in "parts per million" (ppm), so 350ppm is the number humanity needs to get below as soon as possible to avoid runaway climate change. To get there, we need a different kind of PPM-a "people powered movement" that is made of people like you in every corner of the planet.
