Changes

In 1988, Campbell was elected to the [[U.S. House of Representatives]] and served until an unsuccessful campaign for U.S. Senate in 1992. After his defeat, he was elected to the California State Senate and was elected to the House again in a 1995 special election after his district was renumbered. He served on the Judiciary Committee, the Joint Economic Committee, the Banking and Housing Committee and the International Relations Committee. Campbell's record was fically conservative while socially moderate. He voted against the 1997 Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act, and consistently earned high ratings from pro-choice groups. However, the conservative National Taxpayers Union Foundation named Campbell the most fiscally responsible member of [[Congress]]. His political leanings have gained him a [[libertarian]] following.

In 2008, Campbell opposed [[Proposition 8]], arguing that "Republicans believe deeply that government should be limited. Government has no business making distinctions between people based on their personal lives. That's why, as a Californian and a Republican who has held elective office at the federal and state levels, I will be voting No on Proposition 8." <ref>http://reason.com/archives/2008/10/24/ending-marriage-discrimination</ref>
