C T Weber for Governor

for a California run by and for working people

C T Weber is the candidate best qualified to protect the interests of working-class Californians against corporate domination. Whether Republican, Democrat or "independent", no candidate will challenge the rule of the corporate rich as Weber will.

He stands for:

• doubling the minimum wage to stimulate our lagging economy
• no privatization of public services
• defense of women's choice
• releasing nonviolent drug offenders and ending the phony "war on drugs"
• restoring higher tax rates on the wealthy
• "split-roll" property taxes so big corporations pay their share
• abolition of the death penalty
• a single payer health care system
• rolling back student fee increases
• making polluters of the environment clean up after themseleves
• public ownership of public utilities to end energy rip-offs
• defense of the Bill of Rights
• building a fighting working class movement to change society

CT Weber is the Peace and Freedom Party candidate for Governor. A twenty-year state employee, he is President of District Labor Council 784 of the California State Employees Association (Service Employees International Union Local 1000). He splits his time between his state work and working as a union organizer. An "associate governmental program analyst," his state job is to help truckers get their registration numbers and obtain proper licenses, inspections and insurance. In his union job, he organizes and represents workers in Sacramento-area departments including Education, CHP, Social Services, Health Services, Lottery, State Publications and Telecommunications.

Weber is also a founding member and former state chair of the Peace and Freedom Party, and coordinated the voter registration campaign which got us back on the ballot. He has organized for PFP in Long Beach, San Diego and Sacramento, and been active in many community organizations.

Weber, 62, lives in Sacramento with his wife Tatiana. He has one adult daughter, Julia. He holds a master's degree in Public Administration from Cal State Long Beach. He worked his way through college as a stonemason, bricklayer's assistant and substitute teacher.

CT Weber is the best-qualified candidate to represent working people as governor.
