The race for California’s new governor came to William Land Park today as Jerry Brown rallied his supporters and presented his political platform at a Labor Day celebration.

“We’ve got to pull together, if we do, we’ll get it done,” Brown said. “The wealth is there, the good will is there, but it takes the leadership that’s going to talk straight, that’s going to level with people. No more puffy plans and snappy slogans. This is the time for truth.”

The Los Rios College Federation of Teachers was a primary sponsor for the event, which started off with Race for Democracy, a 5K, 10K and kids run at 7:30 a.m. and later culminated in a picnic fundraising event sponsored by the Sacramento Central Labor Council and Citizens Independent-Democratic FUND to raise funds to increase voter participation and elect Democratic candidates, according to the event organizers’, the Democratic Party of Sacramento County’s website. The Los Rios College Federation of Teachers was a primary sponsor of the event.

“I’m going to start right after the November election. We’re going to call all 120 legislators together. We’re going to focus on this budget, we’re going to look at each issue, we’re going to bring in business and labor and we’re going to talk about it. We’re only going to make it when we pull together and recognize what’s on the table. Not the smoke and mirrors [and] the hocus-pocus,” Brown said. “I’m going to level with you; I’m going to tell you the truth.”

The event was also a venue for other Democratic contenders on the November ballot to bring forth their respective platforms to community members, teachers and various labor union representatives and their constituents.

“California is not a logo to be rebranded by Meg Whitman,” Brown said. “We don’t want to gut our schools, our hospitals, our roads…over this pipe dream that if you just keep taking money out you’ll somehow magically get it back. It didn’t work in Washington, [and] it won’t work here.”
