DeVore Leads GOP in Fighting Union Corruption
Posted on December 22, 2009 | 17 CommentsU.S. Senate candidate Chuck DeVore this week endorsed the Citizen Power Initiative, a California ballot measure and proposed constitutional amendment that will end the corrupt practice of allowing taxpayer money to be funneled to political causes through public employee unions. DeVore said, “California’s fiscal crisis will continue unless we can break the political machine. The political alliance created by legislators and the powerful public employee unions who bankroll their campaigns results in bigger government, more spending, and taxpayers are shut out of the process. Nothing will change until we get the government out of the business of collecting union members’ dues that are used for politics.” -

She raises the issue in every interview, but offers no solution. Even as taxpayer activists with the Citizen Power Campaign march forward to fix California government by stopping the public employee unions from using taxpayer money to block needed reform, Fiorina refuses to support the most important reform since Proposition 13. Fiorina is telling voters loud and clear what she stands for - all talk, no action. -
Plunder: How Public Employee Unions are Raiding Treasuries, Controlling Our Lives and Bankrupting the Nation
Posted on November 21, 2009 | 9 CommentsThe public employee unions are plundering and bankrupting California and the nation. That's the bottom line of Steve Greenhut's new book, Plunder: How Public Employee Unions are Raiding Treasuries, Controlling Our Lives and Bankrupting the Nation. KFI radio's Bill Handel interviewed Greenhut, former editor of the Orange County Register, earlier this week to discuss the book. (Bill Handel podcast at 15:00) The book is a necessary primer on why California state government is broken - and how to fix it. Greenhut proves why the Citizen Power Campaign is necessary to fix California state government by stopping the use of taxpayer dollars for politics by the public employee unions.
