Ballot measure campaigns
In 2017, Rep. Travis Allen filed the Repeal Gas Tax and Fees Increase Bill Initiative. The initiative was designed to repeal most sections of Senate Bill 1 (2017), which increased the gas tax $0.12 per gallon, increased the diesel fuel tax $0.20 per gallon, increased the sales tax on diesel fuels by an additional 4 percentage points, created an annual transportation improvement fee, and created an annual zero-emission vehicles fee.[2]
Signatures for the initiative were due on January 8, 2018. Rep. Allen's campaign needed to gather at least 365,880 valid signatures. The initiative failed to make the ballot, with Rep. Allen citing a legal dispute over the ballot language as stalling the campaign. Rep. Allen, following the end of his initiative campaign, said he would support the Voter Approval for Gas and Vehicle Taxes Initiative. Reform California and John Cox, another gubernatorial candidate, backed that initiative.[3]

—Travis Allen for Governor[96] |
2012
Allen's website highlighted the following campaign themes:
- Creating Jobs Is Priority Number One
- Excerpt: "Californians need well paying jobs, but our leaders in Sacramento keep passing laws that force jobs elsewhere. They over-regulate and over-tax businesses and individuals, sending jobs to other states and even other countries."
- Balancing The Budget. Really.
- Excerpt: "Nobody argues about whether California’s budget is out of whack. That’s a given. But the solutions offered are the same every year. It’s raising taxes, accounting gimmicks, and issuing debt for our future generations to pay."
- Stop The Tax Increases
- Excerpt: "If you were to pay attention to the rhetoric coming out of Sacramento, you’d think the answer to every problem was more taxes, and more taxes alone. Californians are taxed enough! Our tax rate is one of the highest in the United States. "
- Support A Part Time Legislature
- Excerpt: "The Legislature only works 3 days a week, for just a few months out of the year. But for doing so, legislators are paid over $100,000 per year, given a free car to use, and are given gold–plated health insurance for themselves and their families. And that’s not to mention the perks they get from the Special interests."
- Quality Education
- Excerpt: "It is a false choice to say we need higher taxes in order to improve education. We simply need to spend our money more wisely. The thousands of bureaucrats we keep in Sacramento, while teachers are getting laid off and class-sizes grow is ridiculous."

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.

Noteworthy events
Named in legislative report on sexual harassment cases (2018)
On February 2, 2018, the California Legislature released details on 18 alleged cases of sexual harassment involving state legislators and senior staffers that occurred from 2006 through 2017. The released cases involved incidents where "discipline has been imposed or allegations have been determined to be well-founded."
Allen was among the legislators mentioned in the cases. He was accused of inappropriate contact by a staffer in 2013. In response, he said, "I'm sure I've shaken many people's hands, tapped many people on the shoulder, and have even tapped people's feet accidentally. But there has never been anything in any of my actions that has been inappropriate, and nor will there ever be. I was actually shocked 6 years ago that any friendliness I displayed was in any way misconstrued. Everyone deserves to work in an environment free from inappropriate behavior."[97]
