Fixing problems through the ballot box
Re “Prop. 75 Puts Police on the Side of Liberals,” Sept. 21
In all the discussions about Proposition 75, there is one simple truth that is always glossed over. Every public employee union member in California has the right to opt out of political contributions. A seven-word e-mail, fax or letter will permanently remove the member’s dues from political activities. It’s that simple. Everything else from Schwarzenegger’s camp is a misdirection to cover the fact that an unpopular governor is trying to silence his critics.
