Lieu Votes with GOP -- Steinberg Says Nothing

State Senate President Darrell Steinberg has pressured the indicted Ron Calderon (D-Bell) to resign, yet says nothing to convicted felon Roderick Wright (D-Inglewood). This double-standard is disgraceful. Because of Calderon and Wright’s tarnished records, they should both be expelled.

State Senator Lieu
Voted with GOP
To Move to Expel Wright

Three Republican state senators, Joel Anderson (Alpine), Stephen Knight (Palmdale) and recently elected Andy Vidak (Hanford), submitted a resolution to expel Wright. Only one Democrat joined them: State Senator Ted Lieu (Torrance).

Thank you, Senator Lieu. Shame on every other senator who voted otherwise.

Daily Breeze reporters have documented rising allegations of corruption in a local school district (Centinela Valley). Analysts reported on growing financial liabilities (or lack thereof) in key cities (Torrance), and editorials have condemned the unwholesome shenanigans of city managers in the South Bay (Manhattan Beach).

Now The Daily Breeze, and every voter, should pressure the California state senate, including Senate President Steinberg, to hold every senator accountable.

State Senate President Darrell Steinberg:
Still Says Nothing About Wright
