Dear Fiona,

What is the difference between State Treasurer and State Controller?

Adam


Dear Adam,

Many people mix up my role as State Treasurer with that of the State Controller. Although our positions are similar in that we both act as fiscal officers for California, we have very distinct roles in California government. As State Treasurer, I serve as the state’s asset manager, banker, and financier. The State Controller, on the other hand, acts as the state’s accountant and auditor.

People I meet will sometimes want to know more about who I am, my policy concerns, and the path I traveled to become California State Treasurer. So today, a little more than one year into my election as California’s 34th State Treasurer, I am sharing those replies with newsletter readers.

To begin with, San Francisco is home and I am married to Jason Hodge. Jason is a full-time firefighter in Ventura County and an elected member of the Oxnard Harbor Commission.
