Isn't it refreshing to know these politicians spend your money but you're not allowed to know what it's spent on?

Bad enough this crap happens on the fed level but it just trickles down to the state level as well.

When they said “open” and “sunshine”, they weren’t talking about for themselves. :)

All these people will get re-elected in the next cycle.

Is it any wonder why they don’t care what we think?

A dictatorial regime, if I ever did see one. The arrogance and hypocrisy of Democrats knows no bounds.

Don’t understand what Californians have to complain about. Every election cycle, they get exactly what they voted into office - Democrats!

"documents that could show whether punishment is doled out for key votes."

This is will show how the DNC operates.

You’d really have to search long and hard to find a worse state govt then we have here in Calif. And that’s really saying something.

Hey, proles - just pay the bills and shut up!

The Stalin approach to government. Strange to find it here in the U.S.

...the public has no right to see...

There are few public servants left. Nuke them from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

The Assembly Rules Committee, under the control of Assembly Speaker John A. Pérez, said that such documents are exempt under a provision covering "preliminary drafts, notes or legislative memoranda" and correspondence to lawmakers' offices.

I note the total absence of any legal citation of the law, Chapter, Section, etc., that documents the controlling legal authority.

These clowns can't make internal rules willy-nilly binding the entire state legal structure.
