Lance Corcoran said that Schwaerzenegger "has betrayed the trust of our members, failed to public safety, has broken its promises to taxpayers of California, and his leadership is a vacuum" in the state.
He noted that the governor promised to solve economic problems of California, Balac deficit and never allow increases in taxes, in addition to commit to increase public safety in the state.
"Instead, their clerical errors and lack of leadership threatened to release thousands of dangerous prisoners, including paedophiles and sexual abusers (who would be in) the streets unsupervised" official "said the spokesman.
The union association of Correctional Officers of the Order of California argues that mismanagement of the governor "put at risk other vital services" in addition to public safety.
