Mayes and Democratic Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon became known for their rare \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/LaurelRosenhall/status/715613598681202688\">bipartisan bromance\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet Mayes is hardly a liberal sop. The son of an evangelical preacher raised in a desert town near Palm Springs, Mayes opposed Democrats’ plan to raise gas taxes to pay for road repairs. He voted against bills to increase the minimum wage and pay overtime to farmworkers. He earned an A+ rating from the Firearms Policy Coalition for his votes supporting gun rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, his chummy approach to Democrats didn’t fly with Republican party activists, who publicly accused him of having \u003ca href=\"http://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/capitol-alert/article162290823.html\">an extramarital affair\u003c/a> with a former assemblywoman as the cap and trade vote loomed.

Party leaders felt the cap and trade extension was both bad policy and bad politics because in delivering Republican votes for the bill, Mayes allowed some Democrats to vote against it.

The son of an evangelical preacher raised in a desert town near Palm Springs, Mayes opposed Democrats’ plan to raise gas taxes to pay for road repairs. He voted against bills to increase the minimum wage and pay overtime to farmworkers. He earned an A+ rating from the Firearms Policy Coalition for his votes supporting gun rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, his chummy approach to Democrats didn’t fly with Republican party activists, who publicly accused him of having \u003ca href=\"http://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/capitol-alert/article162290823.html\">an extramarital affair\u003c/a> with a former assemblywoman as the cap and trade vote loomed. (Mayes declined to answer questions about his personal life, other than to confirm that he is going through a divorce.) After the vote—and his participation in a bipartisan celebration in Gov.

Party leaders felt the cap and trade extension was both bad policy and bad politics because in delivering Republican votes for the bill, Mayes allowed some Democrats to vote against it.
