Jeff Miller (born September 14, 1963) is an American politician who served in the California State Assembly. A small business owner, he served 8 years as both the Mayor and a City Councilman in the City of Corona.
Miller graduated from Foothill High School. He received his bachelor's degree from Cal State Fullerton in 1985.
In 2000, he was elected to the Corona City Council, where his legislative priorities were to keep the economy growing, the budget balanced, the community safe, and reduce regional traffic.
As a member of the Riverside County Transportation Commission, he worked on the Riverside/Orange Corridor Authority.
Miller served as chairman of the Riverside County Republican Party from 2006 to 2008.
Miller serves on the Assembly Higher Education Committee as well as the Insurance, Housing and Community Development, and Transportation Committees. In addition, he serves as vice-chair of the Environmental Safety and Toxic Materials Committee. In his previous term, Miller sat on the Appropriations, Transportation, Education, and Environmental Safety and Toxic Materials Committees while also serving as the caucus' Elections Chair.
Miller formerly served on the Assembly Ethics Committee. However, during the Committee's 1990 investigation of improper activities involving fellow Assemblyman Mike Duvall, tapes surfaced showing Duvall telling Miller details of his sexual liaisons with lobbyists, and Miller was removed from the Committee because he had personal knowledge of the matter being investigated. Miller was reinstated and placed back on the Ethics Committee by Speaker Perez.
In 2012, Miller was the Republican nominee for the California state Senate. He lost the general election to Democrat Richard Roth.
AB 2098 and its "design build" method could serve as the model for all future road construction projects in California. The California Transportation Commission saw the benefits of the innovative design build method, and decided to unanimously endorse AB 2098. In addition to the California Transportation Commission, AB 2098 garnered 54 bipartisan co-authors in both the State Assembly and the State Senate. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed AB 2098 into law in September 2010.
