California: The State That Forgot Its People - Armen Kurdian Interview

In this critical episode of Fired Up! California, host William Del Pilar interviews conservative candidate for CA State Senate District 38, Armen Kurdian. A retired Navy Captain, Kurdian breaks down the massive disconnect between everyday Californians and Sacramento politicians, arguing that common sense has been abandoned.

The conversation centers on the California Housing Crisis, revealing the staggering hidden costs of construction (like $30,000 permits) and the devastating impact of state legislation like SB 79, which overrides local zoning and destroys neighborhood character.

We also discuss his campaign strategy focused on relatability and economic reform for working families, including a plan for tax cuts. Kurdian tackles controversial policies like SB 495 and School Choice under the umbrella of parental rights, and shares his strong stance that boys have no place in girls sports.

Tune in to hear why this veteran is running to make California livable again and why he believes every conservative vote counts. This show is a proud production of Grumblings Media.
