Our Objectives
Equal Access for All
Unlike traditional PACs controlled by a few wealthy donors, Only 1 CA is built on an equal-share model. Every member contributes the same amount, just $1 a day.
Elect Common Sense Leaders
We fund candidates committed to lowering the cost of living, increasing government efficiency, and putting hard working Californians first.
Unity Across California
By uniting thousands of individuals, small business owners, and working families, we will build the largest grassroots force in the state, one that demands a seat at the table and drives real change in Sacramento.
Hold Politicians Accountable
Elected officials should answer to their voters, not special interests. We will expose those who fail to place the needs of their constituents above the demands of outside influence.
Empower Only 1 Members
We provide relevant information on current and upcoming issues in the Legislature. With real data and strategic timing, our members will be able to maximize their political influence from anywhere in California.
Only 1 CA
Our Core Values
Trust
We are building a PAC that people can rely on, one that is transparent, honest, and driven by the needs of hard-working Californians, not the agendas of billionaires or special interests.
Respect
Every member of Only 1 CA has an equal voice. We believe in treating all Californians with fairness and dignity, ensuring that no one is left behind in the fight for a better future.
Relationships
We believe the power of people is greater than the power of money. Relationships between people, families and communities, will bring humanity and prosperity to California.
Individuality
Unlike traditional PACs controlled by a few large donors, we empower individuals. Every member, no matter their background, has a stake in shaping California’s future.

Meet the Founder
Brian Dahle is a life-long Californian, small business owner, and former state senator who has spent his career fighting for lower taxes, public safety, and a stronger economy. He has seen firsthand how Sacramento’s policies are driving up the cost of living, forcing families and businesses out of the state, and making it harder for everyday people to get ahead.
In 2022, Brian ran for Governor, traveling across California and meeting thousands of hardworking people from every walk of life. He listened to their struggles, families barely making ends meet, small business owners buried in red tape, and communities feeling abandoned by their leaders. This experience inspired him to take action beyond elected office and create Only1 CA, The People’s PAC, a movement to give every Californian a seat at the table and a voice in shaping the future of our state.
A longtime advocate for a better business climate, Brian was the California Chamber of Commerce’s top-rated senator for pro-business votes in 2021 and holds a 100% rating from the National Federation of Independent Business. As Assembly Republican Leader, he fought against reckless spending and harmful regulations that stifle job growth. In the Senate, he worked across party lines to modernize outdated environmental laws, pass landmark legislation on wildfire prevention, expand broadband access in underserved communities, protect digital privacy, and lower healthcare costs.
Before his time in the Legislature, Brian served four terms on the Lassen County Board of Supervisors, where he left the county debt-free with fully funded pensions, a rare achievement in California politics.
Despite his years in office, Brian has never been a career politician. He’s a farmer, a small business owner, and a husband and father. He and his wife, Senator Megan Dahle, continue to run their family farm and seed business in Bieber while raising their three children. Chase, Reagan, and Roslyn.
Brian founded Only1 CA because he knows real change won’t come from the political insiders in Sacramento, it will come from the people of California standing together. Through this PAC, he is building the largest grassroots force in the state to elect common-sense leaders, hold politicians accountable, and restore prosperity to California.
