Kevin Kiley was reelected to the State Assembly with the highest vote total for a Republican in California history. He is also the only 100 percent citizen-backed California Legislator, refusing all funding from the Special Interests that spent millions electing Gavin Newsom. After defeating the CA governor in court in October to stymie his one-man rule, Kiley is now releasing a book called “Recall Newsom” to rally support for the current recall attempt of the governor.
Evan and Kevin also cover the job-killing law AB 5, the successful Prop 22 that kept Uber & Lyft in California, how local communities are fighting back against strict lockdowns and how he perseveres in difficult legislative conditions.
Kiley also weighs in on the Federal Stimulus Bill, why he decided to run for office in the first place, and whether he would consider running for governor if the recall qualified. And finally, his favorite lawyer in a movie, what music he plays for guests, his interactions with Gavin Newsom and if he knows of other Kevin Kileys out there. It’s mostly political with a side of awkward.
