"No one has a stronger ‘tough on crime' record than Jim Nielsen.  He crusaded with Paul Gann for tax relief and together they wrote the ‘Crime Victim's Bill of Rights.'  Jim stood like a stone wall with me in the fight to stop illegal immigration.  He's always been a strong, effective fighter for Northern California, and he's deservedly respected throughout the state.  I am proud Jim is my friend and he has my enthusiastic support!"
