Republican legislation?

SB 1167

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 1182.12 is added to the Labor Code, to read:

   1182.12.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this part, on and
after September 1, 2006, the minimum wage for all industries shall
not be less than seven dollars and twenty-five cents ($7.25) per
hour, and on and after July 1, 2007, the minimum wage for all
industries shall not be less than seven dollars and seventy-five
cents ($7.75) per hour.

  SEC. 2.  This act is an urgency statute necessary for the immediate
preservation of the public peace, health, or safety within the
meaning of Article IV of the Constitution and shall go into immediate
effect. The facts constituting the necessity are:

   California's lowest paid workers urgently require an increase in
their wages as soon as possible in order to keep up with the rapidly
increasing cost of living. It is therefore necessary that this act
take effect immediately.

Nope. Arnold is pissed that he lost the election last year, so he is running Left. This is why I never voted for him. He is an opportunist, and will shift with the political winds in order to make some "successes".
