There is an important article on the District 5340 webpage. Apparently, the Rotary Club of National City was mentioned in an article in the Union Tribune newspaper as being directly involved and an accusation against a member the city council of National City.
The article restates the position adopted decades ago by Rotary International that while Rotary Clubs may have at their meetings speakers advocating political positions, these speakers are there solely to assist members in making an informed decision on any issues discussed. Rotary Club's may not however directly advocate or support any political position or use club resources for such activities. For more information about this go to the following links.
