Say No to Bono Mack
On October 10th, 2010, Steve Pougnet, the Congressional candidate for the 45th district came out to Menifee to "meet and greet" some of the constituents in the area. Steve Pougnet is running against Congresswoman Mary Bono Mack who hasn't come out to Menifee area during this campaign. Steve Pougnet answered questions forthright from the issues of economic recovery, public education, senior and health care concerns, to what to do with the current immigration situation. His responses were enthusiastically embraced by the attendees who see a candidate that is in touch with voters' issues and listens, will address these concerns truthfully and most importantly, act upon them. Steve Pougnet won the votes of attendee, Susan Stever, PSEA president of the Perris Union High School District, Dr. Resa Rosenstein, State Senate candidate Paul Clay, and many others. Let's get a Congressman in the 45th District, like Steve Pougnet, who will actually do something for us!

The House, with Bono-Mack support, narrowly passed 219-212 a National Energy Tax that’s wrong. BONO-MACK - NO MORE SUPPORT from our household. Through various venues, I have supported Republican Bono-Mack in the House for a long time, that’s changing. Coincidently, a few days back we received notification from Edison that our monthly bill is going up approx. $60 or $720 per year. I also understand the Energy Tax that Bono-Mack voted for will raise electricity rates for all of us upwards of 90% by 2035. When a similar “cap and trade” system was implemented in the European Union, it didn’t actually reduce carbon emissions, but allowed major corporations to make big money by fixing the rules in their favor while passing on the costs to consumers and small businesses as indirect taxes. Thanks to Bono-Mack’s poor judgment and vote, our electricity bill dramatically jumped and we can expect more hikes in the future. There’s no way she can deny her vote has us paying more money for energy.
Mary Bono Mack also voted in favor of the TARP - A 700 Billion Bailout Bill. The Tea Party does not support these bailouts. If you don't support your taxes going to bailout crooks then you have to replace Bono Mack as your representative in the House.
It is refreshing to hear that even in our community people are working hard for change. I hope we are given the chance for a new, better direction with Steve.
