The 2 Goals stated in 80-20's "Call To Action"
Goal
1: Stop SCA 5 - an immediate need.

Updating
our Progress
Goal
1: SCA 5 is dead.
All who understand politics know that. The
Republican Party is exploiting the SCA 5 issue in hopes of
defeating Dem. candidates in the coming June 3 Primary and Nov.
4 General Election. The Dem Party is scared; and wants to get rid
of SCA 5 ASAP to avoid a disaster in this year's elections. What
should we do? Using one political party to scare the other for its
hurtful act against us is in the BEST democratic tradition. Keep
on using this tactics!

truly empower ourselves - register more AsAm voters to increase
our voter-share in CA from the current 8% to 10%.
truly empower ourselves - register more AsAm voters to increase
our voter-share in CA from the current 8% to 10%.
To
scare the Democratic Party, we should register as
Republicans. If
10,000 more AsAms register as Republicans than Democrats
before June 3, both parties will compete to serve our rightful
interests. Officials from both parties SHALL become our public
servants. (Note: You can vote Democrat as a registered Republican. 80-
20 will like the privilege of making a recommendation to you
when the elections occur.)

To
truly empower ourselves, we need to PUNISH 2 AsAm elected
officials, one Dem senator and one assemblyman, for their failure
to defend our interests during this SCA 5 episode. 80-20 will
advise, when the time comes.

be term-limited out. He'll run for City Council 1, San Jose. He has
been very reluctant to help his own people.
