Calling All CCPOA Members: CCPOA 4 Jerry
Calling all CCPOA Members:
WE NEED YOU! November 2nd is right around the corner and the 2010 Governor's Race is the most important battle we have ever faced. We MUST win!
Meg Whitman will be a disaster for all Californians. As CEO of eBay, Whitman laid off 10% of the workforce and sent jobs overseas. If elected she plans to cut 40,000 jobs! Whitman didn't even bother to vote for 28 years! Whitman enjoyed the best corporate perks as CEO and now wants to be Governor to enact massive tax breaks for the same Wall Street insiders she has always put first. Whitman's answer to the problems of California will be to eliminate the middle class, eliminate a fair pension for women and men who risk their lives and health everyday, and create more "private sector" jobs -- yeah -- at Fast Food wages!
As Governor, Jerry Brown created 1.9 million jobs -- more than Governor Reagan or any governor since -- and as mayor, he turned Oakland into a city nationally recognized as one of the most business-friendly cities in America. Brown recognizes that tough times call for tough choices. CCPOA recognizes that we will have to do our part to turn California around and return to our status as the Golden State. We need a governor with integrity. We need a governor who knows the difference between SEU (a Whitman quote) and SEIU. We need a governor who understands the concept of collective bargaining in good faith. The time for millionaire/BILLIONAIRE governors is over. Been there done that! We need Jerry Brown.
CCPOA needs your help to get this job done. If you are interested in volunteering for our ground campaign and motivating our members to vote for Jerry Brown, please send an e-mail with your name, CCPOA Chapter, and phone number to ccpoa4jerry@gmail.com - again, that's ccpoa4jerry@gmail.com.
We walk the "toughest beat in the state" together -- and together we will win the toughest fight we have ever faced.
