To sign, not veto , Democratic plan to pass California budget In-Reply-To: <8CBC724AA0A63BF-C7C-203B@webmail-mh10.sysops.aol.com> Message-ID: ------ Forwarded Message From: Reply-To: -----Original Message----- From: Chairman John Burton, California Democratic Party To: Bob Schelen Sent: Mon, Jun 29, 2009 2:41 pm Subject: Call the Governor! Dear Bob, Please join me in thanking Assembly and Senate Democrats for passing a common-sense budget before the fiscal year ends tomorrow. Late last night, Assembly Democrats passed a spending plan that minimizes the cruel cuts advocated by the governor by raising $2 billion in new revenue. Just a few minutes ago, Senate Democrats followed suit, passing a plan that requires Big Tobacco and Big Oil to share in the state budget sacrifice. Speaker Karen Bass, President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg and their caucuses should be commended for standing firm against the governor?s Draconian cuts. In order to pass the plan, legislative leaders structured it to require a majority vote. That?s because Republicans have repeatedly refused to provide the handful of votes necessary to pass the plan with two-thirds support. Disappointingly, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has vowed to veto the Democrats? budget plan, preferring to play a game of chicken with the budget. He and Legislative Republicans would rather strip health care from nearly one million children and close 220 state parks than ask corporate special interests to pay their fair share. Now, the onus is on the governor and Republican lawmakers to explain to Californians why they would rather drive the state over a cliff than agree to a budget with a mix of cuts and new revenue. Please, call Governor Schwarzenegger?s office today at (916) 445-2841 or (213) 897-0322. Ask the governor to sign this budget plan, which minimizes the cuts by sharing the sacrifice.
