In a sharply written opinions article, the Tucson Citizen calls it like it is on Rep. Russell Pearce's attempt to overrule the entire state legislature and the governor.
By refusing to review millions of dollars of construction projects on the U of A campus, Pearce is essentially holding the projects hostage.
While we here at Sallygradstudent do not necessarily agree with 100% of the projects and the means through which they are being funded, we also cannot stand for one man attempting to exercise a dictatorial control over this democratic process.

Oh, and in case you don't remember, Russell Pearce was the state rep who pushed through the bill to require all public schools in AZ (including U of A) to have flags and the Constitution posted in classrooms. He didn't seem to have a problem pushing for the tens of thousands of dollars that cost!
