You may have recently received a notice from the LEOFF I Coalition. You will note from the enclosed envelope that they are, again, asking you to send money.

DO NOT SEND THEM ANY MONEY! 

Read the article to find out why.

This is the first in a series of articles in response to a recent Coalition mailing.
You may have recently received a notice from the LEOFF I Coalition. You will note from the enclosed envelope that they are, again, asking you to send money.

DO NOT SEND THEM ANY MONEY!

Here is why.

  • They do not tell you how much money they already have – they have a lot!
  • They do not tell you how they plan to spend your money – they do not have a plan!
  • They will not tell you how they have spent the money you already gave them – some of that money has not been spent well.
  • They do not represent you – you have no voice in setting their policies or their spending.
  • The only issue currently on the table is a lawsuit in Moses Lake over the payment of medical benefits by the City of Moses Lake. They have significantly more funds than the need to fund this lawsuit. By significantly I mean like ten times more than they need.

The notice from the Coalition covered several areas. Much of what they said is simply wrong. Some of it is arguable. Little is accurate.

Currently, I am traveling and have limited internet access.  Watch the the follow-up articles.
