''What I specifically said was that we were not going to prioritize prose- cutions of persons who are using medical marijuana,'' the president said. ''I never made a commitment that somehow we were going to give blanche to large-scale pro- ducers and operators of marijuana — and the rea- son is, because it's against federal law.

Democrats gather for Pebble Beach fundraiser SACRAMENTO (AP) — Assembly Democrats will be enjoying golf and fine food as they are being lobbied by top telecommu- nications donors during their annual Pebble Beach fundraiser, known as the Speaker's Cup, which began Friday. Donors are paying up to $65,000 for the chance to mingle with Assembly Speaker John Perez, D-Los Angeles, and other legisla- tive Democrats at the world-renowned golf course in Monterey Coun- ty. The fundraiser runs through Sunday. AT&T is among the most generous donors to members of the state Legis- lature. Reports filed with the secretary of state's office show the company also has spent about $2.5 million on lobbying so far during the two-year legisla- tive session that began in 2011. Tickets for the Speaker's Cup start at $25,000, which buys golf for one on Satur- day, a hotel room, dinner for two and unspecified ''commemorative gifts.'' For $65,000, donors get golf for four, hotel rooms, dinner for eight and one spa treatment per day for each non-golfer or guest. The Los Angeles Times reported in April that AT&T spent more than $225,000 on last year's event, which raised more than $1 million for Assem- bly Democrats. Contribu- tors received gift bags that contained a new iPad with a thank-you note signed jointly by Perez and AT&T's chief of govern- ment relations, the newspa- per reported. James W.

Saturday, May 5, 2012 – Daily News 9A Red Bluff Daily News: Why do you want to serve as Supervisor for another term? Red Bluff Daily News: District 2 covers west and just south of Red Bluff, Ridgeway Park, the first part of 99W and the Reeds Creek and Red Bank areas George Russell: I would like to continue serving as a member of the board because I find it interesting, a very worthwhile activity and I hope I'm able to con- tribute to the betterment of our county for its citizens. Poll: Did you attend yesterday's chat? Yes ( 100% ); No ( 0% ) Red Bluff Daily News: I should note the computer Supervisor Russell is on doesn't have spell check so please excuse any mistakes. Red Bluff Daily News: What is your opinion on the proposed work farm? George Russell: I role in the branding effort, if any? Poll: What day did you attend the Round-Up? Fri- day ( 0% ); Saturday ( 86% ); Sunday; ( 14% ); More than 1 day ( 0% ); Didn't attend ( 0% ) George Russell: The county has already been active in the branding activi- ty, in as much as it helped sponsor the Tehama Devel- opment Corporation, which has served as the "business" end, specifically the TDC has taken care of the accounting of the funds that have been raised. George Russell: The board has been very support- ive, and will continue to be supportive, of community initiatives such as branding. This is also the case in the outstanding community effort that has been made recently in maintaining the State Fair exhibit. A big thanks to John Growney and Linda Durrer for putting forth the initiative to make our State Fair participation a success. Yesterday a reader asked Mr. Latourell, if he had any ideas on how county depart- ments could run more effi- ciently? Do you have any ideas. Red Bluff Daily News: believe the concept of a work farm is very worth- while. However the term work farm is perhaps a mis- nomer. The term work farm implies that the inmates will be emphasizing farming experiences. I believe that from the standpoint of reha- bilitation, there will be a variety of experiences designed to provide job training with the ultimate goal of preparing inmates for employment upon their release. George Russell: This is similar to the concept the sheriff spoke of recently in the DN regarding the auto maintenance and repair facility. George Russell: The major issue with the work farm is finding a location that will be acceptable to the community.

George Russell: I'm very concerned about the level of public safety we are able to be able to provide. I feel that our Sheriff's Department is significantly understaffed and our fire protection ser- vices could do much more, if the funding were avail- able. George Russell: First of Red Bluff Daily News: Feel free to submit ques- tions...they'll come into the moderator first and will not interrupt the flow of the con- versation. George Russell: I believe we have really a great group of county employees. They work hard to do an effective and pro- ductive job for our citizens. George Russell: I believe there is a conscious effort by the board of super- visors, the department heads and all employees to contin- ually look for ways of pro- viding improved services to the citizens we serve. Poll: Who's your horse for the Derby? Bodemeis- ter ( 0% ); Union Rags ( 0% ); Dullaham ( 0% ); Geo- mologist ( 0% ); A long shot ( 100%) You're going to have at least one new face on the board next year. What do you think a supervisor needs to bring to the table to get work done for Tehama County? George Russell: Most importantly a member of the board of supervisors must be open minded and willing to listen. Red Bluff Daily News: more questions, so that's your last warning if you've been waiting to submit... George Russell: In my opinion, this is the kind of growth we need. However I do believe growth is going to be slow, but steady. Red Bluff Daily News: What are some of the things you're proud you accom- plished as a member of the board? George Russell: In addi- tion, a supervisor must respect fellow supervisors, people of different persua- sions, conservatives, liberals and everything in between.

George Russell: The bottom line is a supervisor must listen, learn, gather as much information as possi- ble and then decide. Poll: Which age group George Russell: Once are you in?

It takes three board members to make a decision. George Russell: Howev- George Russell: It's dif- er, I do believe I have been influential in the decision to utilize correctional officers rather than sworn deputies in the jail. I was effective in eliminating the deferred improvement agreements. Finally, I feel that my 31 years experience as a school administrator provided me with some expertise in per- sonnel, budgeting, and employee negotiations. George Russell: Once again, it's hard to take credit for the board's accomplish- ments. I feel that I'm a mem- ber of a team whose sole purpose is to make life better for the residents of the coun- ty we love. Red Bluff Daily News: Other than having no other choice, why should some- one vote for you again? George Russell: How can we get Tehama County growing again? Or should that even be a con- cern? Red Bluff Daily News: (Laughs) George Russell: I George Russell: In my opinion, growth is sec- ondary to economic recov- ery. With economic recov- ery, growth will come. George Russell: We need to see housing starts rise significantly. We need to see the construction industry getting back to work. We need to see foreclosures ended. This, to me, is the heart of the issue. George Russell: Eco- nomic growth will likely result in population growth, however we hope that the population growth would be based on solid, high paying employment along with developments such the Pulte Sunset Hills project.
