Police officers speak out over layoff concerns - 2008/06/08 00:09
This thread discusses the Content article: Police officers speak out over layoff concerns
Now the police officers is speaking up. Just like the teachers did at Konocti, the union spoke up. Put everybody on high alert. They are not the only ones that will eventually be laid off. Look around, do you see money coming from anywhere? Not from the state, the county doesn't have it, the city doesn't have it, nor do the school districts. What does this mean? Time to put your money where your mouth is. Call your State Rep. and Senator. Democrat or Republican, it doesn't matter. We need more taxes. Not to increase programs, but to maintain the programs we have, be they school, police, health care, city and county workers. In plain English, THE MONEY IS NOT THERE! The Republicans will not move on this issue. The Democrats do not have enough to over-ride them. They need to be working together for the benefit of ALL Californians'.
This is not about who is right, which program should not be cut or whatever arguement you want to make. If WE want to keep what we have worked hard to get,services, then we MUST require our elected officials to work together and solve the problem.
