Boxer opens her campaign with an emphasis on jobs
Wasting no time as she formally kicked off her general election campaign, California Sen. Barbara Boxer argued Tuesday that she was the “proven fighter” for jobs in California, and she castigated opponent Carly Fiorina as a failed chief executive whose views are “about as far right as you can get.”
In the first day of a two-day barnstorming tour that will cover nine stops from Stockton to San Diego, Boxer jetted up and down the California Coast on Tuesday in a chartered Gulfstream G-3 jet.
The Democratic incumbent highlighted her plans to create jobs by ushering federal dollars to transportation projects in California, aiding the expansion of the clean energy economy through tax incentives and ending tax breaks for companies that send American jobs overseas.
