During Arnold Schwarzenegger’s campaign for governor in the 2003 recall election, a number of women came forward to reveal their sexual harassment and assault by Arnold. The Los Angeles Times printed extensive reports just prior to that election. Now, just three years later, there almost no mention of Arnold’s sexist escapades. But some women are refusing to remain silent. More than a hundred women from across California have signed a letter to remind voters of the seriousness of the accusations of 16 women against Schwarzenegger that surfaced during the 2003 recall campaign, and those that have surfaced since then involving minors. Referring to the recent Republican sex scandal of Mark Foley, the letter asks, “If Foley is gone, and Hastert may go, why give Arnold Schwarzenegger a pass and re-elect him as Governor?” The letter’s signees include acclaimed singer Michelle Shocked, KPFK Programmer Lila Garrett, as well as my guests, Karen Pomer, of the Rainbow Sisters Project and Jane Piper of Survivors & Artists for Abolishing Violence. | the entire program GUESTS: Karen Pomer, of the Rainbow Sisters Project and Jane Piper of Survivors & Artists for Abolishing Violence During Arnold Schwarzenegger’s campaign for governor in the 2003 recall election, a number of women came forward to reveal their sexual harassment and assault by Arnold.
