About the Book

The Race to Save California is a fearless look at what happens when political failure hits everyday life. From rising housing costs and homelessness to public safety and failing infrastructure, Kate Monroe argues that the California dream is slipping away in real time. But this isn’t just a story about decline, it’s a roadmap for revival.


Drawing on her experience as a Marine Corps veteran, business leader, mother, and political challenger, Monroe exposes the policies and decisions she believes pushed the state to the brink. She connects government spending to street-level reality and asks the question many Californians are already asking: where is the money going, and why aren’t we seeing results?


More than a critique, this book is a battle plan. It delivers bold, practical solutions to restore accountability, rebuild economic opportunity, and bring common sense back to governance.


Direct and unapologetic, The Race to Save California is both a warning and a rallying cry for anyone who believes the Golden State is still worth fighting for.
