Washington
,
DC
– Calling him the best candidate to “terminate”
California
’s budget crisis, the Republican Main Street Partnership
welcomes Arnold Schwarzenegger’s decision to enter the
governor’s race.
“The
Republican Main Street Partnership is pleased by Arnold
Schwarzenegger’s decision to run for governor of
California
,” said Main Street Board Member Rep. Doug Ose
(R-CA). “
Main Street
believes that Schwarzenegger will provide the strongest leadership
and the wherewithal to terminate
California
’s budget crisis.”
Main Street
is a top supporter of Schwarzenegger’s after-school programs. In
2002, Schwarzenegger spearheaded Proposition 49, a ballot
initiative in
California
to dedicate much as $550 million to before- and after-school
programs every year.
“
California
’s budget has spiraled out of control under the misguided
leadership of Gov. Davis,” Ose
added. “Schwarzenegger represents
California
’s mainstream values and is the GOP’s best chance of restoring
fiscal responsibility in
Sacramento
.”
The
Republican
Main Street
Partnership is the largest group of moderate elected GOP officials
in the nation, with over 60 members in the U.S.
House and Senate. To learn more about Main
