Willie Brown: Former S.F. Mayor Turns Lobbyist

Willie Brown - Greasing PalmsThe SacBee reports: “Willie Brown used to be reviled in Bakersfield, a conservative city that didn’t care for his Democratic politics when he served as Assembly speaker.

Now the Capitol legend has returned to the Legislature to lobby on the city’s behalf.”

“The Salton Sea Authority hired Brown to seek funding and authority to help restore the Salton Sea in Imperial and Riverside counties.

The authority is paying Brown $10,000 per month, said Gary Wyatt, chairman of the Salton Sea Authority
.”

Easy money.
