Editor,
When an elected government official violates their oath to uphold the California Constitution, it is an offense deserving of recall from public office.
Both Angelina Cahalan (Millbrae District 2) and Maurice Goodman (Millbrae District 4) have done just that. They are part of San Mateo County’s trampling of our Article 34 voting rights related to the La Quinta Hotel purchase/conversion. Neither councilmember has supported Millbrae’s Article 34 lawsuit against the county or joined our voting rights fight. These council members have aligned themselves with antivoting rights groups, the majority from outside Millbrae. Voter suppression flies in the face of democracy and should not be tolerated in any form.
California’s Constitution Article 34 says that no low-income housing project can be developed, constructed or acquired in any manner by a California state government body until a majority of a locale’s qualified electors vote to approve the project. It isn’t difficult to understand that Millbrae citizens are entitled to a vote on the La Quinta project.
Maurice Goodman and Angelina Cahalan have had ample opportunity to listen to their constituents and consider the financial impacts, quality-of-life concerns, and the voter rights issue related to La Quinta. They persist in ignoring constituent viewpoints. If they won’t listen to constituents on an issue as impactful as the La Quinta conversion, how can they be trusted to listen to constituents on any matter, or to respect the California Constitution?
Angelina Cahalan and Maurice Goodman deserve your YES TO RECALL vote.
