To pay for their increase in salary, a bill just came out of committee to TRIPLE LICENSE FEES on every car. I'm working hard to STOP this horrible bill and hopefully the CA Freepers will get on board and call ASS SPKR Wesson(916-319-2047)in addition to their Assemblymen. We put a stop to the SUV tax so far and we can stop this one too! Just in case you'd rather have Wesson's Email: Assemblymenber.Wesson@assembly.ca.gov. DAVIS says he isn't for it since it doesn't go to him directly but we'll see.
