Later, Gregg’s expertise in this arena led him to serve as the Deputy Executive Director for SBCAG, supporting regional efforts to widen the 101 freeway and improve bus and passenger rail service throughout Santa Barbara County.

Starting in 1995, Gregg was elected to four terms on the Santa Barbara City Council. In 2018, he won a seat on the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors.

Gregg Hart has a deep understanding of local people and local issues. He is proud to have served the Santa Barbara community for more than 30 years – as a Planning Commissioner, City Council Member, California Coastal Commissioner, and presently as the 2nd District County Supervisor.

Gregg has a long history of fighting to increase educational opportunities, reduce poverty, prepare for emergencies, and support the health and safety of the people of California’s Central Coast. As an Assemblymember, Gregg Hart will put the needs of Santa Barbara County and southern San Luis Obispo County front and center in Sacramento. Gregg’s top legislative priorities will be to focus on equity, criminal justice reform, environmental protections, education, economic opportunity, and practical initiatives to tackle homelessness and the affordable housing crisis.

Meet Gregg Hart

“I will work in the public’s interest to accomplish our shared agenda of economic prosperity, expanded educational opportunities, and the protection of our natural environment for future generations of the 37th Assembly District and California.

My priorities are to keep our community safe, our environment protected, and our economy thriving by supporting working families. California must lead the way forward and I believe my record of local government experience will help advance these critical state priorities and improve the quality of life for all who call California home.”

Gregg Hart – Priorities

Agriculture

Agriculture encompasses a vast portion of the northern part of the 37th District. Our farmers and ranchers play a vital role in our local economy, employing a large workforce and providing our most essential goods. Gregg will work to ensure that our agriculture sector is successful by providing farmers and ranchers with the support they need, improving the quality of life for agricultural workers, and working to advance policies and programs that increase sustainable agriculture practices.

Education

The son of a public school teacher, Gregg understands the important roles that our schools and higher education institutions play throughout our state. Gregg will work to ensure that our students, families, teachers, and support staff have the resources that they need to succeed. Gregg is committed to expanding access to affordable childcare and reinvesting in our community colleges and public universities. Gregg strongly believes that this investment must include California’s technical education programs that promote trade apprenticeships.

Emergency Preparedness

Gregg will champion legislation that increases resources for emergency preparedness and response, especially as we experience longer and more intense fire seasons. Gregg will make sure that our state, local, and federal partners are all working together to keep our community safe. Gregg will support our first responders, invest in emergency response equipment and technology, and improve our emergency communication systems. Gregg is proud to be supported by the California Professional Firefighters and the Santa Barbara County Firefighters Association.

Environment

Gregg is committed to transitioning away from fossil fuels that create greenhouse gas emissions, accelerate climate change, and threaten our groundwater. Gregg recognizes that this transition will generate good-paying jobs, diminish our reliance on fossil fuels, and ensure that California remains a leader in the fight against climate change. Gregg is a strong proponent of protecting our open spaces, wildlands, and coastal areas. Gregg will prioritize equity and justice when advancing environmental policy, recognizing that communities of color and underrepresented communities have been disproportionately impacted by environmental hazards.

Equity

Gregg will work to advance equity for all Californians. As a Supervisor, Gregg has worked to address racial disparities in the criminal justice and healthcare systems. Gregg is a strong advocate for advancing gender equity and supporting LGBTQ Californians. Gregg will partner with marginalized communities to understand the inequities that exist and develop solutions that make our state more just, healthy, and prosperous for all.

Healthcare

Gregg believes that every Californian should have access to high-quality and affordable healthcare. California has made significant progress in closing coverage gaps, but there is more work to be done. Gregg will work to move us closer to universal health coverage and support policies that lower drug prices, empower healthcare professionals, and increase mental health services.

Homelessness

We must end California’s homelessness crisis. Gregg will support policies that prevent people from falling into homelessness, provide supportive services that help people get their lives back on track, and develop a stable funding stream for the creation of supportive housing units. Gregg has led partnerships that bring together the public, nonprofit, and private sectors to stand up new services and bring people indoors.

Housing

The Central Coast is now one of the most expensive places to rent or purchase a home. It shouldn’t be this way. Gregg will advocate for policies to increase the supply of housing that is affordable for people of all income levels, including middle-income earners. Gregg believes the people who work in our community should be able to afford to live here. Gregg will make sure the state works collaboratively with cities and counties to meet the unique housing needs of individual communities.

Jobs and Economic Security

Small businesses are the backbone of our communities and our regional economy. As a former small business owner, Gregg understands the challenges that small businesses experience. Gregg believes California must help small businesses compete with large corporations, while ensuring that workers are paid fairly and treated with respect. Gregg will champion policies that help working families and create new economic opportunities, especially as we emerge from the current inflation crisis.

Public Safety

Gregg has worked to improve the safety of our neighborhoods and believes that the public’s safety should be a top priority for any elected official. Gregg understands the importance of ensuring public safety agencies have the tools they need to protect us and help keep our communities safe. Gregg’s commitment to the safety of our families and neighborhoods has earned him the endorsement of law enforcement, including the California Highway Patrolmen’s Association, the California Coalition of Law Enforcement Associations, the Santa Barbara City Police Officers Association, and District Attorney-Elect John Savrnoch.

Reproductive Rights

The Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade has threatened the reproductive rights of women throughout the country. California must lead the way for ensuring access to safe and legal abortion, along with the full range of reproductive health services. Gregg will champion reproductive justice policies in the State Assembly. He is proud to be the only Assembly District 37 candidate to earn the endorsement of Planned Parenthood Central Coast Action Fund and NARAL Pro-Choice California.

Criminal Justice

Gregg is committed to working with crime survivors, law enforcement, community organizations, and criminal justice reform advocates to keep our communities safe and healthy. He will provide first responders with the resources they need and make sure our communities are served with transparency and fairness. Gregg is committed to ending gun violence. He will also invest in treatment and support programs to make our communities safer, reduce recidivism, and advance equity.

Water

California is experiencing the worst drought in 1,200 years and needs a diverse water supply with storage and a conveyance system to protect against the threats posed by our water crises. Gregg will invest in new technologies and projects to modernize California’s water systems and provide a reliable water supply for all California residents and for our vital agriculture industry, while protecting our environment.
