Steve Bennett is an independent local leader who is not afraid to stand up to powerful special interests to protect our quality of life, open spaces and address climate change.

As an environmentalist he protected Ventura County’s open spaces and agricultural land from massive LA urban sprawl projects using an innovative series of land use initiatives.

As an experienced local educator and high school economics teacher, he is committed to securing funding that goes directly into our local public classrooms.

As a Ventura County Supervisor, Steve brought fiscal discipline and balanced budgets to Ventura County — securing funding to bolster firefighting efforts and open a homeless shelter.

He has taken his unique brand of independent environmental leadership and passion for good government to Sacramento.
