Rosalind Kurita on Government Reform

No personal profit or pay raises for Congress

I will support tough new ethics reforms in Congress to make sure we are holding Senators to the highest standard. Public officials must hold themselves to a higher standard. I have time and again refused to personally profit from public service. I have opposed every legislative pay raise and legislative pension increase that has been proposed in the state Senate. As your next U.S. Senator, I won't vote to increase my own taxpayer-funded salary, pension or health care benefits. Source: Campaign website, www.kurita2006.com, "Issues" Feb 6, 2006
