Public Defender Jeff Adachi and interim Mayor Ed Lee.<\/p><\/div>\n

By Luke Thomas<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

October 13, 2011<\/p>\n

With just over three weeks to go before San Francisco voters to go to the polls to cast their ballots, mayoral candidate and Public Defender Jeff Adachi today renewed his challenge to interim Mayor Ed Lee to debate the merits of two competing pension reform measures, Propositions C and D.<\/p>\n

Sponsored by Lee and backed by public employee unions, Prop C was placed on the ballot by Lee and the Board of Supervisors.\u00a0 Sponsored by Adachi, Prop D is a voter-approved ballot initiative qualified with over 70,000 signatures.<\/p>\n

Adachi’s previous attempt<\/a> to bring sunshine to the pension reform debate for the benefit of voters was rebuffed by Lee.<\/p>\n

“Mayor Ed Lee touts Proposition C as a consensus plan that brought all the stakeholders to the table,” Adachi said in statement. “But in refusing to bring this conversation to the people, Lee ignores the most important stakeholder in this city\u2019s future fiscal health \u2013 the taxpayers. The voters of San Francisco deserve to hear the merits of these propositions debated, so that the final say can be theirs.”<\/p>\n

\u201cThese ballot measures are offered as a means of addressing a fiscal crisis faced by this city,\u201d Adachi added. \u201cIn my view, nothing is more important than informing voters about the particulars of these competing measures. Pension reform is as complex as it is crucial to our city\u2019s future. As the proponents of these propositions, Ed Lee and I should stand before the public and answer their questions.\u201d<\/p>\n

No word yet from Lee spokesperson Tony Winnicker, but we’ll update this post when he responds.<\/p>\n

Update, 2:08 pm,<\/strong> Winnicker responds in typical Winnicker fashion:<\/p>\n

“This is like eating cold pizza and watching bad reruns on late-night TV. Jeff Adachi’s dead-end campaign is so desperate he can’t even come up with a new stunt to call attention to himself.”<\/p>\n

“Mayor Lee debates pension reform with Jeff Adachi at every forum and contrasts how he brought business and labor together for real reform over Jeff Adachi’s divisive ‘Wisconsin’ approach. Voters deserve to hear from all 16 candidates for Mayor on the issues, from creating jobs to pension reform to improving our neighborhoods, not just two.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
