    Governor Brown’s Transportation Funding Plan This proposal is a balance of new revenue and reasonable reforms to ensure efficiency, accountability and performance from each dollar invested to improve California’s transportation system. Governor Brown’s Transportation Funding Plan Frequently Asked Questions This proposal is a combination of new revenue and reform with measurable targets for improvements including regular reporting, streamlined projects with exemptions for infrastructure repairs and flexibility on hiring for new workload. How much does this program provide overall for transportation improvements? • Over the next decade, the Governor’s Transportation Funding Plan provides an estimated $36 billion in funding for transportation, with an emphasis on repairing and maintaining existing transportation infrastructure and a commitment to repay an additional $879 million in outstanding loans. How much does it require the average vehicle owner in California to pay? • The proposal equates to roughly 25-cents per motorist per day according to the Department of Finance. The latest TRIP* study released, and subsequent article in the Washington Post, showed that Californians spend on average $762 annually on vehicle repair costs due to wear and tear / road conditions, etc. http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonkblog/ wp/2015/06/25/why-driving-on-americas-roads-can-be-more-expensive-than-you-think/ A figure that should go down significantly with improved road conditions. How will the program improve transportation in California over the next decade? • Within 10 years, with this plan, the state has made a commitment to get our roadways up to 90% good condition. Today, 41% of our pavement is either distressed or needs preventative maintenance.

  • Lyndon Larouche, Cult Figure Who Ran for President 8 Times, Dies at 96 - the New York Times
    2/13/2019 Lyndon LaRouche, Cult Figure Who Ran for President 8 Times, Dies at 96 - The New York Times Lyndon LaRouche, Cult Figure Who Ran for President 8 Times, Dies at 96 By Richard Severo Feb. 13, 2019 Lyndon LaRouche, the quixotic, apocalyptic leader of a cultlike political organization who ran for president eight times, once from a prison cell, died on Tuesday. He was 96. His death was announced on the website of his organization, La Rouche/Pac. The statement did not specify a cause or say where he died. Defining what Mr. LaRouche stood for was no easy task. He began his political career on the far left and ended it on the far right. He said he admired Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, Abraham Lincoln and Ronald Reagan and loathed Hitler, the composer Richard Wagner and other anti‑Semites, though he himself made anti‑Semitic statements. He was fascinated with physics and mathematics, particularly geometry, but called concerns about climate change “a scientific fraud.” He condemned modern music as a tool of invidious conspiracies — he saw rock as a particularly British one — and found universal organizing principles in the music of Bach, Beethoven and Mozart. Some called him a case study in paranoia and bigotry, his mild demeanor notwithstanding. One biographer, Dennis King, in “Lyndon LaRouche and the New American Fascism” (1989), maintained that Mr. LaRouche and his followers were a danger to democratic institutions. Mr. LaRouche denigrated a panoply of ethnic groups and organized religions. He railed against the “Eastern Establishment” and environmentalists, who he said were trying to wipe out the human race.

With the explosive commercial growth in Downey in the past decade, the Chamber has had to adapt and progress along with it. This not only meant a more diverse Board of Directors, but also meant an openness to listen to new ideas about the way the Chamber works in partnership with the city. For these reasons, we as the Board of Directors, felt that it was time to fine-tune our brand to match with our new environment. Our new Mission Statement is: We are committed to promoting and meeting the needs of our members to create the best community in which to live, work, and do business, while providing leadership for the advancement of economic vitality by building relationships with City Representatives to benefit all businesses within Downey. To coordinate with our updated Mission, we are proud to introduce a new logo, which better represents these changes and embodies who we are today. The elements in our new logo were designed to symbolize the City of Downey embracing the smaller letters, which signify the Chamber of Commerce, in addition to the letters literally representing the Downey Chamber of Commerce. Like the icon, the City and its Chamber work together to create a strong, cooperative unit, joined in our dedication to provide a safe environment, reliable leadership, and opportunities for our community.

  • Jerry Brown's Brownshirt Genocidal Policy; If It Is Brown, Flush
    Jerry Brown’s Brownshirt Genocidal Policy; If It Is Brown, Flush It! by William F. Wertz, Jr. April 11—Faced with a drought in California and other Western states, which may very well last decades, Cali- fornia Governor Jerry Brown, whose own anti-nuclear power policies in the 1970s and 1980s prevented the development of nuclear desalination in California, which would have alleviated the current crisis, an- nounced a genocidal program for dealing with the drought which relies solely on conservation of dimin- ishing supplies of water. Ideologue that he is, Brown instead of blaming his own suppression of nuclear power for the current crisis, proclaimed on Sunday, April 5, on ABC News’ “This Week”: “And I can tell you, from California, climate change is not a hoax. We’re dealing with it and it’s damn serious.” In a New York Times article entitled “California Drought Tests History of Endless Growth,” published the same day, Jerry Brown is further quoted as follows: “You just can’t live the way you always have. For over 10,000 years, people lived in California, but the number of those people were never more than 300,000 or 400,000.” Thus, in contrast to his own father, former Governor Pat Brown, who fostered numerous water management projects in California, Jerry Brown is now prepared to EIRNS A pamphlet from the Will Wertz for Senate campaign in use the crisis which is a result of his own anti-science California, 1982. bias, to pursue a policy which will deliberately reduce the capacity of California and other Western states to festation of the Mediterranean fruitfly which was dev- sustain human population.

  • Governors and the Executive Branch
    I' I 1 Chapter 9 Governors and the Executive Branch Ethan Rarick The history of modem American politics cannot be written without discussing Cali~omia governors. One former governor (Ronald Reagan) went on to serve as president ofthe United States, of course, but in addition to that three others ran for president (Earl Warren, Jerry Brown, and Pete Wilson), one served as chief justice of the United States (Warren), and another was a global celebrity who could not seek the presidency only because he was a foreign-born immigrant (Arnold Schwarzenegger). The status of the office as a potential presidential launching pad caused at least two other national political figures-U.S. Sen. William Knowland and former Vice President Richard Nixon-to 'run for governor, and although Nixon lost his gubernatorial bid he ofcourse went on to eventually win the presidency. Aside from national elective politics, California's chief executive governs more Americans than anyone save the pre~ident, sits atop a state with the world's ninth largest economy, and often occupies a place on the world stage similar ta the leaders ofmiddle-sized nations. The incumbent as of 2013, Jerry Brown, is no exception to any of these trends.
