The editorial linked below details the reasons California citizens need to get the signatures of 434,000 people by June 14, 2010 in order to qualify Initiative #1435 for the November ballot. Initiative #1435 would simply limit pensions for new state hires to $100,000. Public-employee unions have roundly rejected Initiative #1435 as they consider the public treasury their own.
