And for many liberals and Democratic lawmakers, Brown’s latest budget proposal represents just more of the same. Last week, Eddie Kurtz, executive director of the 900,000-member Courage Campaign, said that Brown’s financial agenda since returning to the governor’s office in 2011 has favored the wealthy. Anthony Wright, executive director of Health Access California told the Sacramento Bee that Brown’s budget “largely continues the cuts that were made in the recession to health and human services.”
