Unhappy about California's coming budget cuts? Check out this invitation from member Connie Peterson:
The state budget should be a serious concern to any Californian. Governor Schwarzenegger is proposing ridiculous cuts to almost every program on the books, and is quoted recently in the Los Angeles Times as being willing to bring the State down.
His approach to "helping" California is costing millions of jobs and services we all need, while also making cuts that result in a loss of Federal matching funds, which add up to even more lost revenue for our economy. What some may not know is he's continuing to give an average of $2.2 billion dollars a year in tax breaks to some of the largest corporations in the country, including Chevron.
California needs that money! And it's time to show the Governor we won't stand for his budget proposal. With that in mind, there will be an Intersection Rally beginning at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, June 17, outside the Chevron station at First and Shaw in Fresno.
Speak up for the millions who will be devastated by this budget, including students, the elderly, and children. Come after work, hold a sign, pass out fliers, oppose the tax breaks!
Thanks for the information, Connie. Want to participate? Contact Connie Peterson via e-mail.
