Andrew Yang<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cAs we enter challenging economic times, it is more important than ever that Californians have an independent-minded Controller who will keep watch over how their tax dollars are spent. Californians need a problem-solver, not a typical politician, as their next Controller. Lanhee has shown the ability to transcend left and right to get things done, and I am proud to endorse him,\u201d Yang said at a local Chinese community leaders gathering hosted by former California State Senator Bob Huff and his wife MeiMei Huff in Southern California.<\/span><\/p>\n

State Controller candidate Lanhee Chen added, \u201cI’m proud to have Andrew’s support. He is a dynamic thinker and leader who is doing important work in addressing the failures of our overly partisan political system. With his support, I look forward to bringing Californians of all political stripes together to win in November. I believe that being an effective Controller is not about left or right, but about putting taxpayers ahead of the Sacramento insiders.”<\/span><\/p>\n
