attention is paid to the problems arising from short-term deficits,
groups are also focusing on the need for long-term structural reform.
The group leading a statewide effort is California Forward, a
politically and geographically diverse leadership council working to
reform California’s fiscal, political and governance systems. With Fred
Silva and Dennis Qurin of California Forward."
