Amador County – A big turnout is expected to see 10th District Assemblymember and Amador County representative Alyson Huber speak this Friday (June 18th) at tiny Café de Coco in downtown Jackson. According to an announcement from Amador Democratic Central Committee Chairman Randy Bayne, Huber’s local appearance kicks off a series of forums across her district in which she’ll “discuss the state budget, the May revise, her legislative priorities, and her work on eliminating waste, fraud and abuse in government.” As Chair of the Joint Legislative Audit Committee for the state, Huber has been busy examining oversight and implementation of Federal Recovery Act funding. A recent hearing focused on oversight of ARRA funds and what is being done to prevent there waste and misuse, as well as implementation efforts. The California State Assembly this month, on an overwhelming, bipartisan vote, passed two far reaching governmental reform measures authored by Alyson Huber. The legislation if implemented will push government to identify waste, duplication and inefficiencies in state departments and agencies. Democratic Senator Mark DeSaulnier and Republican Assemblymember Roger Niello are co-authors of both bills. “For many years the legislature and the Governor have created governmental entities that were designed to solve particular problems,” Huber said at the times of the measures passage. “I think the time has come for us to review each of these bureaucracies, keep the ones that work and eliminate those that have outlived their usefulness. This will ensure taxpayers that their money is being spent wisely,” she said. Bayne encourages community members to attend the forum Friday and bring their “questions, ideas and solutions regarding state legislative issues that affect the community.” Huber is also scheduled to appear at the Rio Americano High School library in Sacramento from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 22. She’ll be at the Bear Creek High School multi-purpose room in Stockton from 6 to 7 p.m. on Wednesday, June 23. Finally she’ll appear at Rancho Murieta Country Club from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, June 24 and at the Monterey Trails High School theatre room from 7 to 8 p.m. on that same day. The Café De Coco lunch forum takes place this Friday (June 18) from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Café de Coco in Jackson. Story by Alex Lane This email address is being protected from spambots.
