“Republican Antics Push State Further Adrift”
By Mark Leno, Assemblyman 13th District, Apr 22, 2008
Having spoken out numerous times on Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and his Republican colleagues’ inability to deliver on their promises to solve California’s budget problems, I was further outraged by their recent opposition to closing a loophole that gives tax breaks to wealthy yacht owners. At a time when California is considering drastic cuts to education, health care, state parks and the poor, this unconscionable position only underscores the Administration’s inability to deal with our budget crisis in an honest manner and their willingness to balance the budget on the backs of our most vulnerable.

When the local community, volunteers, and the city, state, and national governments came together to clean up this section of our City we witnessed an environmental success story.

California GOP’s Election “Reform” Measure Reeks of Rove
By Mark Leno, Oct 15, 2007
This is one istraight out of Karl Rove’s political playbook. A group of Republican political operatives and their powerful special interests have hatched a desperate scheme to rig California’s electoral process to their advantage. They’re proposing a statewide ballot initiative to change how California casts its electoral votes for President. They’ve cleverly labeled it the “Presidential Election Reform Act,” which would sound credible if it weren’t so cynical.
