Where does Dave Min stand on the issues?

Dave Min's campaign lists four priority issues. Civoren has not yet recorded a stance on any of them.

  • Affordable Housing

    “The high cost of housing is the biggest challenge that California- and the Orange County area I represent- is facing.”

  • Homelessness

    “Finally, it is critical that we recognize that to address the problem of the chronically homeless, we must do more than just provide housing. By the time you see someone on the streets, they’ve typically been homeless or housing-insecure for months or years, creating a vicious cycle of mental health and substance abuse problems that make it very difficult to re-enter society. The non-profit organizations that are dealing with homelessness most effectively have all reported the same thing- that the biggest barrier to their work is the difficulties in combining federal, state, and local funding for housing and mental health and substance abuse services . By easing these barriers and continuing to fund these critical programs, we can help solve the problem of homelessness.”

  • Housing & Development

    “I’m proud to be closely tied with the YIMBY and Abundance movements and will continue to support efforts to aggressively reduce the uncertainty and litigation risk associated with permitting requirements for new building and infrastructure development. While I believe strongly in protecting our environment, it is clear that many of the environmental protection requirements associated with new buildings are not serving their intended purposes.”

  • Reproductive Rights & Abortion

    “Women should have full autonomy over their own bodies and their ability to make their own healthcare decisions. Full stop. I’ve been a loud and outspoken advocate for abortion rights my whole career, and when I served in the California State Senate, I was proud to have authored a number of leading bills to protect these rights, including Proposition 1 in 2022, which codified abortion rights in the California state Constitution, as well as SB 374, which I authored into law in 2021 and which made California the first state in the nation to recognize reproductive coercion as a form of domestic violence.”
