Dick Eiden for Congress - California, USA

Dick Eiden is the only independent progressive candidate running for CA 49th District to replace Darrell Issa in the House of Representatives; here below is Mr. Eiden’s statement he just filed with both San Diego and Orange County Registrar of Voters:

‘Our democracy has been hijacked by multinational corporations and their armies of lobbyists. Dick Eiden is a truly independent alternative to the corrupt status quo in Washington, D.C. An attorney and community activist, he founded North County Forum and Sunset Poets.

Voting for Dick Eiden will send a strong message that we demand our democracy back from the military-industrial-financial-congressional complex with its two-party, pay-to-play system and its corporate media. We want big money out of politics; a single-payer, public health system; significant cuts in military spending; an end to subsidies and tax loopholes for the rich. Military cuts and tax equity would fund real jobs in education, building and repairing infrastructure, public safety, and developing renewable energy.

Dick Eiden opposes attacking Iran and getting involved in another tragic war. Dick supports full, unhindered health and reproductive rights for women; legalizing, taxing, and regulating marijuana; freedom of the internet; comprehensive immigration reform; and separation of church and state.

Our leaders have no plans for peace, no Department of Peace. Dick Eiden will insist that government begin planning for peace, prosperity and justice for all. End war, rebuild America!

Darrell Issa is one of the major players in the latest politics against women – he also voted against the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, which passed in 2009 - while Dick Eiden has been an advocate and activist for women’s equality and rights since the 60s. On this International Women’s Day supporting Eiden for Congress campaign is most fitting.

Moreover, Mr. Issa has done nothing to support the economy in the 49th district – he has voted against green energy and green jobs, the present and future of California - and to safeguard his real estate investments in North County he’s even deceiving us about the potential threat of San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS).

We are running a lean grassroots campaign – no big donors, no corporate influence.
Please help us spread the word about Dick Eiden – our district and the Country need a new representative with integrity, who truly represent US the people.
