2. And in that same vein...
Critics of California Governor Davis believe he panders to the prison industry, which can only hurt him in the recall election. He has advocated spending millions of dollars we cannot afford on a new death row and he has denied parole (against recommendations of his own advisory panel) for battered women who have killed their abusers. http://www.alternet.org/story.html?StoryID=16626

Help Davis reorganize his priorities and beat the recall at the same time! Write to him at governor@governor.ca.gov and tell him to quit coddling the corrupt prison industry and pay attention to his constituents. This issue is one that made me waver in my support for Davis, even though he has enacted other progressive legislation for the state, and he needs to hear that is true of MANY people.
