Editor:

"I have always been sympathetic to the plight of the workers, and I am a union guy" —Santa Monica Mayor Kevin McKeown, in a recent edition of the Santa Monica Daily Press.

The city council and Mayor's office hold fiduciary standards to uphold for the taxpayers of our city.

If Mr. McKeown wants to represent the teamsters as a business agent with collective bargaining, I'd suggest you remove yourself from the office of Mayor.
