Author, entrepreneur, and Fox News contributor Steve Hilton says he’s running for California governor to address the housing crisis, high taxes and the “staggering incompetence of Democrat one-party rule." He’s not embracing the Republican label, instead calling his campaign nonpartisan. 

Born in the United Kingdom to Hungarian parents who fled communism, Hilton worked in politics, advertising, and business before becoming head of strategy for former British Prime Minister David Cameron. But he’s probably best known in the United States for hosting the Fox News Channel show “The Next Revolution.” His books include Good Business: Your World Needs You and More Human: Designing a World Where People Come First

Hilton joins Commonwealth Club World Affairs as part of our “Race for Governor 2026” series of candidate forums. Come meet the candidate, hear his vision for California, and ask your questions before you cast your vote for California’s next governor.
