Amendment 49 | The Ivory Tower Explanation

October 1st, 2008 | by Brian |

Jon Caldera explains the proposed Amendment 49 to the Colorado constitution.

From EthicalStandardsNow.org:

Government should not be the bagman for special interests. Amendment 49 will prohibit governments from bundling money from public employees’ paychecks and delivering the cash to special interests who use it to lobby politicians. Government should be using our tax dollars to provide crucial public services, not to funnel money to political organizations. Amendment 49 keeps lobbyists in line.

Here are its endorsements.
