Sen. Moorlach, the legislature’s only CPA, will preside over a stimulating round robin match of “The Price is Right,” on High Speed Rail, “To Tell the Truth,” on Sexual Harassment under the Dome, “Let’s Make A Deal,” with CalPERS, and “Jeopardy.” We will see how California taxpayers do in the “Wheel of Fortune.” Or if we end up like a failed contestant on “The GONG Show.”

Sit tight… It’s also our Fourth Annual Golden Fleece Award ceremony!

The late U.S. Sen. William Proxmire used to famously issue Golden Fleece Awards to public officials he believed were squandering public money. Imagine receiving one of his monthly Golden Fleece Award press releases, each of them identifying, then vilifying the latest waste of government funds and the people behind it.

Our ceremony will once again be emceed by Jon Coupal, President of the Howard Jarvis Taxpayer Association, and Craig Powell, President of Eye on Sacramento... sure to make you wince and laugh at the same time.

Invite friends and colleagues to the dinner — it’s only $55/person or $400 for Table of 8, at the Dante Club,2330 Fair Oaks Blvd., No host reception at 6:00 pm, dinner at7:00 pm. Come mingle and talk with elected officials, local dignitaries, business owners, entrepreneurs, and concerned taxpayers at our event.

We are working hard to introduce more Sacramento area taxpayers to the benefits of membership in SacTax, and our annual dinner is a good way to demonstrate our commitment, as well as show what we’ve accomplished.
