Kudos to the Daily Cal for aggressive investigative reporting today.

The current question is: what now? It would seem a simple lawsuit before the Judicial Council would produce a stop-order on behalf of direct Prop 54 monies. I'd be surprised if Senator Lafata and friends wasn't following this up. (And this would be a good opportunity for Mr. Lafata to broaden his anti-GA crusade into more then one person filing lawsuits. Recruit people. Make more of a movement out of it.)

It's also possible the GA/ASUC will find a loophole in the spending.

It's ironic that the two governments are funneling so much money into this, when the anti-54 campaign has already been well-funded by opposition groups around the state. They don't need the extra money at this junction so much as they could use vocal opposition and organization. And yet the no on 54 buttons are thick on the ground only among traditional Progressive groups, with very few on more mainstream students. But it's apparently easier to spend cash, even knowing it'll expose an Administration as seeing the Law as either a tool to be used or an obstacle to avoid. Email This Post!
