CRP Statement Regarding Gov. Brown's Unfair Accusation

SACRAMENTO, CA – CRP Chairman Tom Del Beccaro today issued the following statement in regards to an accusation Governor Jerry Brown made about Republican lawmakers to a California Nurses Association meeting in San Francisco yesterday:

"Last night, Jerry Brown went to a union event to proclaim that Republicans are controlled by a third party.  That is a shameful comment made by the most politically beholden governor in America.  Since taking office, Brown has refused to cut back government in any meaningful fashion for fear of unions at the same time that he demands Californians cut back their lifestyles in the form of higher taxes.  His comment would be laughable if the negative effect of government polices on Californians wasn't so serious."
