This bill is being carried by assembly member Cecilia Aguiar-Curry, from Dixon-Winters California, near Sacramento. It’s pretty obvious, this bill is an attempt to change the system by which bonds are approved and the proceeds spent. But you get that, right? “ amending Section 18 of Article XVI thereof, relating to local finance. How could they make this more confusing? This stuff isn’t written for the general public to understand. “resolution to propose to the people of the State of California an amendment to the Constitution of the State, by amending Sections 1 and 4 of Article XIII ? A thereof, by amending Section 2 of, and by adding Section 2.5 to, Article XIII ? C thereof, by amending Section 3 of Article XIII ? D thereof, and by amending Section 18 of Article XVI thereof, relating to local finance.” I don’t think I wrote anything insulting, I just expressed my outrage at this clever ploy to get us to sign away our voting rights tacked onto a bill that uses fire victims as a shield. But it’s been disguised as a housing measure, using wild fire victims as bait. He commented on a month old post I wrote about an assembly bill that would lower the 2/3’s voter approval for tax measures to a simple majority – 51 to 55%. Not only is this man an adult, he’s an adult who gets paid over $100,000/year, plus benefits, to protect the public interest. This comment is so hateful and angry, if he had spoken to me like this in a small room, I think I’d be very uncomfortable. He could have asked me if I wanted to chat about the bill, and then let it go, instead, he seems to be calling me out, playground style. You think they may want to ask their voters to support local rebuilding efforts? Under her initiative, they can if they want, and voters must support. And, by the way, after years of fires in her district in Lake, Sonoma, Yolo, Colusa and Napa, she was the first person to offer assistance to her colleagues dealing with the Camp Fire. But you’re frustrated that you can’t just troll her on social media instead of engaging in a policy discussion. And she meets daily with people from all over California. So how transparent and engaged are you? The Assemblymember’s phone is everywhere. “You never comtacted our office for a conversation about your concerns or to explain why local officials should not be able to ask their viters for support of local priorities to support the local economy. John Ferrera, Chief of Staff commented on CA ACA 1 – another attempt to lower the 2/3’s tax measure threshold disguised as a housing bill But yesterday I got a comment from a public employee that was post worthy. I usually don’t post those comments, not because I’m thin-skinned, but because they don’t have anything to do with the conversation. I know, I’m a crusty old broad, but I can tell when somebody is trying to intimidate me into shutting up, just by calling me a “troll” and telling me to “get a life”.
