Former San Diego City Councilman Carl DeMaio, the co-leader of the latest pension reform attack, recently sent out a mass email that deceptively asks supporters to volunteer to become signature gatherers. Opposition from this pension reform measure calls the email a “fundraising scam”. Steve Maviglio, a spokesperson for unions opposing the pension ballot proposal, points out “To get a measure on the ballot, you need signatures on a petition, not a petition for a petition.”
It is not a surprise that the pension reform measure proponents are pulling out an “all-hands-on-deck” approach to try to gather the signatures needed to get the measure on the ballot. In order for DeMaio to get the 580,000 signatures (more signatures than the entire population of Wyoming) he is using a grassroots approach, combined with some traditional paid methods, to obtain signatures.
ACSS opposes this newly-named “Public Employees Pension and Retiree Initiative Constitutional Amendment” pension reform measure because it revokes vested and promised benefits for state employees. We are following this issue closely and, as always, will provide updates to keep you informed.
