One Fulop Peition on Ballot, Second Undecided

One of downtown Councilman Steven Fulop's reform referendums has gotten on the ballot, but the second is still waiting for a legal decision, writes the Journal. The referendum banning pay-to-play -- the practice of campaign contributors receiving government contracts -- is on the ballot. But Fulops other referendum, banning public officials from having more than one government salary is still to be decided. Elected officials likely fear the second initiative more, as the ban on multiple tax payer salaries would crimp their earning power and reduce their future pensions.
