TOUGH ON CRIME

As District Attorney for the past 16 years, Ernie has proven himself to be tough on violent crime, graffiti vandalism, and agriculture theft.  He has earned your trust and support. 

Ernie helped change California's laws to make it tougher on those who commit graffiti vandalism.

Ernie, along with Madera Sheriff John Anderson, persuaded the Madera County Board of Supervisors to form Madera County's first Gang Task Force.

New Hope Madera takes gang members off of the streets and assists them in becoming law abiding, employed, and productive members of the Madera County.
