Re: what do you have to say
I just want to clear up what seems to be a misconception out there. Common Cause is supporting a drastically amended version of the bill, not the original version of the bill the Governor supported.
The new bill includes nearly every recommendation included in the CGS/Demos report and adds in some of the best policy from other states. I'd encourage everyone to take a look at the bill: http://www.commoncause.org/site/pp.asp?c=dkLNK1MQI
wG&b=368187
It establishes a truly independent commission. It has strong and fair criteria. It's good policy. It's the right thing for California. it's the right thing for Texas. It's the right thing for Florida.
