Southern California Congressional candidate Daniel Jose Bocic Martinez has recently responded to a series of questions posed by the Southern California News Group ahead of the November general election. Martinez, who currently serves as the Director of Legal Services at House of Ruth, provided detailed answers on various topics, including criminal justice reform, SALT deductions, Supreme Court reforms, age limits for presidential candidates, women’s access to fertility treatments, immigration, cost of living, housing affordability, and tackling homelessness.

When addressing criminal justice reform, Martinez proposed conditioning federal grants on sane criminal justice reform, categorizing crimes with human victims, and restoring penalties for certain offenses. He also expressed support for the restoration of SALT deductions, criticizing the failure of present leaders to reinstate them.

Regarding Supreme Court reforms, Martinez emphasized the constitutional oversight role of Congress through impeachment powers and the need for periodic Constitutional Conventions. He opposed the imposition of age limits on presidential candidates but advocated for term limits for various elected positions, including the U.S. House, Senate, President, and Supreme Court.

Martinez expressed his full support for government-funded IVF and fertility treatments, citing the potential decline in birth rates as a matter of national importance. On the topic of immigration, he highlighted the need for a secure border and proposed a “Yellow Card” system for undocumented individuals already in the country.

Addressing concerns about high prices and the cost of living, Martinez identified factors such as foreign policy, regulatory reform, and budget deficits as contributors to inflation. He called for comprehensive measures to address these issues.

In terms of housing affordability, Martinez suggested making rent payments and primary home mortgage payments fully tax-deductible, implementing regulatory reforms to incentivize construction, and providing low fixed-interest home loans for first-time buyers. He also emphasized the need to limit corporate ownership of properties to prevent monopolistic practices.

Regarding homelessness, Martinez emphasized the scale of the problem and proposed the establishment of homeless rehabilitation centers modeled after European hostels. He called for creative solutions and encouraged community involvement in addressing the issue.

On the topic of deep-fakes and false AI-generated content, Martinez opposed content restrictions or censorship by the federal government, citing First Amendment protections.
