Top Priorities if Elected |   
- I would cut government waste.  Those who spend the money(government employees)  should be surveyed to determine areas of wasted government money.
 - Once the government waste is cut, then I would balance the budget without raising taxes.
 - I would propose legislation to help working families save for retirement and protect employee pensions.

The people's voice needs to be heard in California Government.  The people of State Senate District 6 have given me great ideas on improving our quality of life in the Sacramento area.  Remember I'm a write in candidate.  To vote for me, write in at the top of the ballot, 'STATE SENATE DISTRICT 6, YOLANDA KNAAK'  For an example on a sample ballot, check my website http://www.yolandaknaak.com
