2018 CA Governor's race: on Government Reform

The leading Republican candidates blamed California's bedrock environmental law for the state's housing shortage, sounding off ways to amend the California Environmental Quality Act.

Ose, a Sacramento-area developer, touted his experience with CEQA, saying that while it has flaws, attacking or tearing it up would be a "recipe for disaster" with voters.
