Not your Kumbiya moment
It was not all :We Are the World," for the trip by Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and 230 business leaders on the Access D.C., trip on Tuesday.
Rep David Drier, R-San Gabriel Valley, thought he was winning over the locals when he told them:
"The nation relies on Southern California's infrastructure and innovation. Strategic federal investments in these areas will yield tremendous returns from coast to coast. I look forward to continuing to work with local leaders and job creators to advance the policies that will deliver the most benefit to the region and the nation."
But, Andy Stone of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee said Drier has twice voted agaisnt the stimulus project.
