Hello City Council,
My name is David Gonzalez. I was born and raised in Anaheim. I am concerned about the recent political
corruption allegedly committed by the resigned Mayor Siddhu.
I urge the Council to restore the core elements of the Campaign Finance Reform Ordinance, which are as
follows:
1. Restore recusal of members from voting on items of financial interest to PACs donors.
2. Restore 6 month recusal period after votes benefiting campaign donors
3. Restore limiting fundraising to year of election
4. Restore public right to seek remedy if ordinance is violated
These are necessary first steps for breaking the control corporate power has over Anaheim's government.
Implementing them would set a precedent for other cities in Orange County to follow.
All the Council members made a commitment to restore public trust. Yet, only Dr. Moreno is taking the steps
necessary to do so. I urge you all to support and vote in favor to restore the original core components of the
ordinance.
Thank you for your time.
