NEVER FORGET

...This week Sacramento NBA Kings owners JOE & GAVIN MALOOF donated $100,000 to the Governor DAVIS Anti-Recall Campaign.

...Sitting unsigned on DAVIS' desk is Assembly Bill 944 that could significantly benefit the MALOOFS if signed. Assembly Bill 944 would make it possible for the MALOOFS to build a new downtown arena along the Sacramento city rail yard...

...WITH TAXPAYER MONEY ...BUT WITHOUT A PUBLIC VOTE.

.."Follow the Money, Follow the Money. It certainly gives the appearance of a Pay-for-Play, that a campaign contribution is directly tied to pending legislation on the governor's desk"...

...states JOHN COUPAL, of the HOWARD JARVIS Taxpayers Association.

NEVER FORGET

NEVER FORGET

Governor GRAY DAVIS (D) =

Donor/MALOOF Entertainment -Quid/$100,000 -Pro Quo/A new downtown arena for the Sacramento Kings to play in, paid for with taxpayer and no vote of the people.

Donor/ORACLE Corporation -Quid/$25,000 -Pro Quo/$95 million contract between ORACLE and the State of California

Donor/CALIFORNIA Prision Guards Union -Quid/$2,600.000 -Pro Quo/Shut down the private prisons that the state was contracting with, pay reaises of 30% to prison guards while state was in massive budget deficit and cutting teachers. Shorter working hours, long vacation time.

Donor/TOSCO Refineries -Quid/$70,500 -Pro Quo/Allow TOSCO to increase dumping of pollutants into the San Francisco Bay. The state had for 7 years refused to relax ppollution standards on TOSCO, but just days after a massive contribution to DAVIS, the Governor's policy changed, allowing TOSCO to dramatically increase the amount of dioxin it dumped into the San Francisco Bay.

Donor/MERCURY Insurance -Quid/$220,000 -Pro Quo/Signed a bill which changes the definition of a "Good Driver" in automotive insurance, allowing insurance companies to charge more. DAVIS had vetoed the same bill the previous year when he as running for reelection, stating that it violated the spirit of Propostion 103..

...plus...???

Disappointed in MALOOF..?

Don't forget Doofus Davis forgiving the Los Angeles School District $120 million in daily attendance money they charged the state for, for students that didn't exist. I can only guess how much the California Teachers Assoc. gave to his campaign for that little goodie.

And the civil service unions giving Davis millions of dollars....and then getting the Fair Share fees implemented on all workers again...to the tune of $1 million per month for CSEA alone. The gift that keeps on giving for both Davis and the unions.

Donor/Amount/Quid Pro Quo. A fitting epitaph for the so-called Davis Administration.
