CA-03: Lungren serves Lungren; forget the people. |
|
Paraphrased: In his last month as California’s attorney general, Dan Lungren took a 25.9% pay hike, increasing his pension by $11,000 per year.
Unemployment rates soar, schools close, and families struggle to survive, but Republican Dan Lungren games the system for himself.
Lungren must go! Read more _here_.
Sign the petition, donate, and/or volunteer for Ami Bera to help this very capable and worthy Democrat oust Lungren from CA-03.

|
for the term elected? Or against their constitution?

I'm not sure what the case is in California, but all elected officials' salaries should somehow be tied to the minimum and/or median wage.
