Local Officials Visit State Capitol with a Mixed Reception
Local officials received a
mixed reception last week when they made a lobbying trip to the State Capitol to discuss local issues
surrounding Mule Creek State Prison. The County’s lobbyist Wes Loujan
set up appointments for Supervisors Novelli and Forster, as well as County
Counsel Martha Shaver to meet with budget staff for both the assembly and
senate, and staff from the governor’s office. County Counsel Martha Shaver
explained the reason for the trip.
“Our purpose in going down was not to have a particular proposal, but rather before things start getting really hot and heavy in the legislative session to just have these people who are dealing with prison issues and budget matters aware of the particular problems that we are having in Amador County and the commitments that have been made to us by both secretary Tilton (who is the secretary of the CDCR) and the Warden of Mule Creek (Richard Subia) about their willingness to address the problems.” She continued by saying that, “We wanted to make sure we had that kind of commitment on the administrative side that the legislature would be willing to assist us in backing up those …what we hope are promises that we will see come to pass.”
