State of California in big need of a full Contracts bid process audit. Faithful civil servants being penalized if they do not produce reports that support certain vendors.

LOL, @bunker Queen, You said “Queef” not “Queeg”!

As for the corruption exemption, I think that stall tactics are often applied when corruption attempts are being made. This gives those doing the corrupting or creating the loopholes the opportunity to re-word, re-adjust, or re-apply the same measure in a different format hopefully in a crafty way as to make them a hero rather than a sneaky politician. Shame on them!

Nice investigative journalism on this one!

Never had a state worker out of state move.

Well color me not surprised Queef ! State worker is like a tick, you can only extract them with fire. Sometimes they go from old age at their desks….usually need to wait a couple weeks to tell they’re dead…..the activity level is about the same.

Never met a competent government worker! I work my tush off working for Ulysses Uhaul moving doomers out of state. Never had a state worker out of state move.

While I agree with your premise that the bill should not exempt any public employee from the public contract code for intentional violations – I believe this provision ONLY applies to UC employees – not CSU or CCD employees. Of course that raises ANOTHER question. Why treat UC employees any different than CSU or CCD? I guess the UC has a better lobbyist?

Well, gee whiz, there musn’t be anything to this story because the LA Times, the San Francisco Chronicle, the Sacramento Bee and every other California bastion of journalism hasn’t seen fit to cover it.

Keep up the good work, Katy.
