Adam Schiff

The League of Women Voters of Glendale-Burbank recently publicized in

this newspaper its intentions to sponsor a Candidate Forum at 7 p.m.

Friday, Sept. 22, at the Burbank City Hall, and I am writing to publicly

accept the invitation to debate. The league forums are an indispensable

part of our local democratic process, and I am truly looking forward to

taking part.

The league's candidate forum prior to the Primary Election offered a

top-notch and professional opportunity for the candidates for the local

congressional, state Senate and Assembly seats an opportunity to reach a

broad audience. The league forum was broadcast live on the local

government access cable channel in Glendale, Burbank and the foothill

communities and I am pleased that for the upcoming debate the league

plans to widen its outreach by distributing videotapes of the forum for

broadcast on cable channels in Pasadena. No other candidates' forum

offers as broad an audience in a nonpartisan setting as does the league

forum, and I am truly proud of the decades of service of the league in

helping to educate voters.

Thank you again for your service to our democratic process and our

community through the candidates forums. I look forward to a lively and

engaging league debate with my fellow candidates from the Republican,

Natural Law and Libertarian Parties on Sept. 22.

ADAM SCHIFF is a candidate for the 27th Congressional District seat.
