Calabasas, I am listening
Help shape a results-first plan for our city. I am Michael Koslow, a 33-year military veteran, former federal special agent, and small business owner running for Congress in California’s 26th District. My focus is practical problem solving that delivers for families and businesses across our communities.
From congestion at the 101 interchanges at Parkway Calabasas, Valley Circle, and Lost Hills, to wildfire risk in the Santa Monica Mountains corridor along Mulholland Highway and Malibu Canyon, Calabasas deserves a representative who listens first and works quickly.
