Gloria Romero Urges Californians to Vote YES on Prop 32
Gloria Romero urges Californians to vote yes on Prop. 32:
Californians understand that Sacramento is
broken and that special interests – whether from the left or the right –
have crowded us out.
We also understand that corruption is
rampant in a state that is fueled by money and lobbyists who wine and
dine legislators and stuff their campaign coffers with checks. We know
that they have forgotten that they are supposed to
speak for us and our children. We understand that money speaks louder
than our families.
Having served in the Legislature, I
understand how that robbing of the people's voice has occurred. I
witnessed the "you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours" transactions
made out of public sight. These transactions have resulted
in a public education system that has failed parents and children, year
after year, yet have enriched the largest teachers' association which
is able to literally intimidate legislators into not even voting for the
most sensible of bills: like adopting sound
procedures for firing teachers who have sexually abused innocent
children.
