Ramirez's annual salary is now $190,008 -- $80,424 higher than that of Perez or Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg, D-Sacramento, whose pay was dropped from $133,639 to $109,584 last year by the state's independent salary-setting commission.

Perez Swearing In Speech
Please consider Speaker John A. P�rez: California Must Unite Around Solutions
March 1, 2010Top Priority Is Spending Money
At his swearing-in as California�s 68th Assembly Speaker at the State Capitol today, Speaker John A. P�rez (D-Los Angeles) said his top priority is to get Californians back to work. In his speech, which was delivered before several hundred community and business leaders, working men and women and elected officials, P�rez said he would work to implement innovative ideas around job creation and government reform and he also pledged to work across both sides of the aisle to deliver results for Californians.
It took a mere two weeks for California Democratic Speaker John A. Perez to prove his top priority is not jobs, but rather spending money and padding the pockets of his friends and associates.
California voters, I have a simple question: Why do you put up with the likes of John A. Perez and his ilk?
Seriously how can you vote for this fiscal lunatic?
