I recently had the opportunity to meet and speak to Peter, and it became instantly apparent to me that he is a principled and ethical leader with a strong conservative vision who will keep his promise in making Ventura County a safe and wonderful place to live.

Peter has lived in Simi Valley for 22 years, where he has raised his family and understands, like I do, how special Ventura County is. As a successful business owner, active member of the community and family man, Peter Foy is the leader that Ventura County needs now more than ever.

Unlike the incumbent, Peter Foy will not vote to cut funding for local public safety. He understands that the primary job of local government is to make sure we as residents are safe in our homes, streets and schools and will put public safety first.

Peter Foy also understands the need for higher ethical standards in county government, which is why, when elected, he will end the era of the career politician by supporting term limits and lobby restrictions. As a strong fiscal conservative, he will no doubt cut wasteful government expenditures, and he supports a balanced budget.

He is not someone who will just talk the talk, but rather, he is a trusted person who will walk the walk and get much needed reform at county government accomplished. Unlike many others, Peter Foy is someone who doesn’t seek to make public office a career, but rather only intends to serve to get his priorities for Ventura County accomplished.

Peter Foy has also been endorsed by our state senator, Tom McClintock, and also by the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association for his proven record of being a fiscal conservative.

Peter is the pro-family, pro-business, pro-law enforcement and pro-Ventura County leader that we need.

It’s about time that we finally have someone on the ballot who will listen to us and do what is right for the county and not simply for themselves. Please join me in voting for a real leader, Peter Foy, on June 6!
