I've voted for him but always considered him too conservative.

During his tenure, Schiff also authored "tough on crime" measures, which did not pass or were vetoed by governors, including a bill to allow minors 14 or older accused of serious crimes to be tried as adults and a bill that would have made it a felony to hire an undocumented immigrant.
