Key Findings
Junge Was A Wanderer With Few Michigan Ties
Junge Was Raised In California And Spent The Vast Majority Of His Life Outside Of Michigan. Junge
claims roots in the State of Michigan, but has spent the vast majority of his life outside the state. Junge’s family
moved to California when he was 8 years old and he attended high school, college, and law school there. In total,
Junge only spent 10 years of his life in Michigan (mostly as a young child) and 43 years outside of it. Junge’s father
later established a scholarship at the University of Michigan, his alma mater, which Junge would not have been
eligible for as a Californian. One of Junge’s first jobs was the San Diego office manager for Senator Pete Wilson,
which he began shortly after his father contributed $2,000 to Wilson’s 1988 reelection bid.
Junge Was A Failed California Lawyer Who Endangered Victims Of Domestic Abuse. Junge became a
Deputy District Attorney in Ventura County, CA in 1994. Junge’s incompetence became the subject of news
coverage in the Los Angeles Times later that year when he barged into a meeting between a public defender and a
victim of domestic violence to serve a subpoena. Junge’s rash action caused the case to be ruled a mistrial and for
charges to be nearly dropped against the victim’s accused abuser. While the case was ultimately retried in a new
trial, Junge was removed from the case and ended his employment with the Ventura DA’s Office in early 1995.
Junge Was A TV Anchor Who Spent Little Time In Michigan. After his debacle at the Ventura DA’s office,
Junge decided to take his talents elsewhere and proceeded to begin a decade of wandering from state to state,
working as a local TV anchor in Colorado, Arkansas, Missouri, and even for a short time in Michigan.
Junge Continued To Wander From Job To Job, Working The Chamber Of Commerce In California, Which
Opposed The ACA. Junge decided once again to change his career path, and took a job with the Oakland
(California) Chamber of Commerce where he supported outsourcing manufacturing to Canada and supported
heavy State law enforcement presence on the streets of Oakland. Junge took a job with the California Chamber of
Commerce next, which had recently opposed the state ACA Exchange signed into law by Governor
Schwarzenegger. Junge then found himself on the other side of the country, serving as the President of the St.
Mary’s County, Maryland Chamber of Commerce in an exurb of Washington, DC.
Junge Spread Misinformation During A Pandemic
Junge Helped Perpetuate Dangerous Misinformation Regarding COVID-19. As part of a virtual campaign
event, Junge hosted Michigan GOP operative and doctor Robert Steele to discuss the COVID-19 Pandemic. In this
event with the attentive ear of Junge, Steele proceeded to peddle a series of falsehoods regarding the pandemic.
Steele equated COVID-19 to the seasonal flu, despite the overwhelming scientific consensus that this was not the
case. Steele downplayed the important role of testing in getting states reopened, again flying in the face of accepted
scientific reality. Steele also accused frontline medical professionals of inflating COVID-19 statistics, something
Dr. Anthony Fauci has categorically stated is not occurring.
Junge Expressed Skepticism Regarding Immunizations And Showed Ignorance Of Medical Fact. Just before
COVID-19 lockdowns in early 2020, Junge expressed skepticism at a campaign event about the effectiveness of
some vaccines and stated that there should be some exceptions for making them mandatory. Junge also falsely
claimed that HPV is not a communicable disease and that universal immunization for that disease did not make
medical sense.

John P. Junge, Junge’s Father, Moved To San Diego In 1974 When Paul Junge Was 8 Years Old. “A job with
Rohr Industries lured John Junge to San Diego in 1974. In 1976 he began working in the military family housing
maintenance business where he would dedicate the bulk of his career, ultimately acquiring and operating his own
company, All Star Maintenance, which he oversaw until his retirement a few years ago. John lived most of his adult
life in California but never forgot his Michigan roots.” [MLive Obituaries, 7/29/19]

Arbor and raised by middle-class parents in Michigan and California. He graduated from the University of
California, Berkeley and obtained his law degree from the University of San Diego before becoming a deputy
district attorney in California.” [MLive, 11/14/19]

According To His Linked In, Junge Attended Torrey Pines High School In San Diego, CA. [Paul Junge,
LinkedIn, accessed 4/17/20]
[Paul Junge, LinkedIn, accessed 4/17/20]
Junge Was A Member Of The Torrey Pines Academic Team. “Torrey Pines High School defeated Escondido
High School 84-64 last night to win the North County Academic League championship. […] Both sides missed the
first tossup question, asking for the Italian word for ‘slow down’ in music, which is ‘ritardando’ or ‘ritard.’ But
both teams settled down, although one could see the anxiety in the Escondido team of Busse, Jose Duarte, Jeff
Hobbs, Velina Underwood and Vinka Valdivia as Torrey Pines jumped to its big, early lead. Then the nervous
looks and squirming came from the Torrey Pines team of Ensign, Mike Maheu, Paul Junge, Ted Cox and James
Schwall as Escondido climbed back and into the lead. But Torrey Pines, backed by some loud supporters, took
control in the waning minutes. The semifinal matches lasted 25 minutes each.” [SDUT, 5/11/84]
Junge Attended The University Of California, Berkeley, Earning A BA In Political Science And Economics
Junge Earned A BA In Political Science And Economic From Berkeley. “Paul Junge, news; * Education:

Junge’s Father Later Created A Scholarship At The University Of Michigan That Junge Would
Not Have Been Eligible For As A Student
Junge’s Father Created The Junge Family Scholarship At The University Of Michigan-Dearborn. “When
John Junge was applying to college as a teenager in Jackson, Michigan, he assumed he would have to go to
community college first because of financial constraints. But he won a scholarship to the University of Michigan in
Ann Arbor instead. After learning about the Dearborn campus's cooperative education program, he transferred so he
could earn money in his chosen profession while finishing his studies. Now he's giving back. Junge, '64 BSE-IE,
'67 MBA, established a scholarship for high school students who want to attend the University of Michigan-
Dearborn College of Engineering and Computer Science.” [University of Michigan, accessed 5/12/20]
The Scholarship Was Only Available To Students Who Attended High School In Michigan Or Transferred
From Local Community Colleges. “The Junge Family Endowed Scholarship Fund, established by a gift of
$350,000, provides scholarships to undergraduate students in the Department of Industrial and Manufacturing
Systems Engineering at the College of Engineering and Computer Science. Students must have attended a
Michigan high school or have transferred from Jackson Community College, Henry Ford Community College,
Calvin College, or Hope College. ‘We are honored that John Junge and his family chose to give back to the College
of Engineering and Computer Science,’ said Dean Subrata Sengupta. ‘Mr. Junge's generosity ensures that another
generation of engineers will have the opportunity to follow his path. We are very grateful for that.’ Since 1985,
Junge has owned All-Star Inc., a San Diego-based company that provides management and operations service to
certain government and military facilities in 18 states and Germany. The company earns about $250 million in
gross annual sales and employs more than 1,200 people.” [University of Michigan, accessed 5/12/20]

1994: Junge’s “Highly Inappropriate” Actions In A Case Resulted In A Mistrial And The Near Dismissal Of
Domestic Violence Charges Against A Defendant
Junge Was Assigned As A Prosecutor For A Case Against Someone Charged With Spousal Battery. “The
judge's ruling means that Mitchell Blair, 38, of Oxnard, must stand trial on a misdemeanor spousal battery charge.
The case is scheduled to return to court today for assignment to trial.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
Junge Barged Into A Meeting Between A Public Defender And The Defendant’s Wife, The Alleged Victim In
The Case. “Blair's case was in trial last month when Junge saw Blair's wife, the alleged victim in the case, enter a
conference room in the public defender's office, according to court records. Moments later, he and a district
attorney's investigator entered the room without knocking and gave the woman a subpoena, Brodie said.” [Los
Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
The Judge In The Case Called Junge’s Actions “Highly Inappropriate” And Declared A Mistrial. “Paul
Junge were ‘highly inappropriate,’ Judge Edward F. Brodie ruled that the defense was not harmed by the
Paul Junge (MI-08) Research Book | 8
prosecutor's conduct. […] The judge declared a mistrial when he learned what happened, and Assistant Dist.
Atty. Kevin J. McGee apologized to the public defender's office. [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
Junge Was Removed From The Case. “Deputy Dist. Atty. Kevin G. De Noce, who said Junge has been
removed from the case, argued against dismissal of the charge. He said Junge's actions were improper, but
dismissal was too severe a sanction.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
The Defense Argued For Dismissal Of Charges, Jeopardizing The State’s Entire Case. “However, the public
defender's office argued in court that Junge's behavior was so inappropriate, it justified dismissal of the case.
Deputy Public Defender Randolph Tucker said the incident interrupted Blair's wife as she was about to recant her
earlier statements to police about being beaten by the defendant.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
Junge Interrupted The Alleged Victim Preparing To Recant Her Statements To Police. “Deputy Public
Defender Randolph Tucker said the incident interrupted Blair's wife as she was about to recant her earlier
statements to police about being beaten by the defendant.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
The Judge Ultimately Declined To Dismiss Charges Outright. “A prosecutor who barged into a defense
attorney's office to subpoena a witness did not behave so badly that criminal charges should be dismissed against
the defendant, a Municipal Court judge ruled Tuesday.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]

2012: Junge Supported BART’s Purchase Of Over A Billion Dollars In Rail Cars From Bombardier, A
Canadian Corporation, Over Union Objections. “BART's board of directors voted unanimously Thursday to buy
410 new train cars for $896.3 million from a Canadian firm, over objections that not enough of the contract will be
fulfilled by U.S. workers and suppliers. This marks the first time in 40 years that the Bay Area Rapid Transit
district is buying vehicles with entirely new technology, without needing them to be compatible with an older fleet.
The board is expected to buy more cars from Canada-based Bombardier later on, for a total of 775 cars at a total
cost of $1.54 billion. […] James Beno, directing business representative for an Oakland-based International

Association of Machinists union lodge, urged the board to "take a few months to let this go back out to your best
bidders." Representatives from the BlueGreen Alliance and the Courage Campaign said they've gathered thousands
of petition signatures from BART riders and taxpayers urging the same. But many speakers from the business
community urged the board to honor its own bid process, accept Bombardier's bid and move ahead without further
delay. ‘Take the best product at the lowest price, that your process has determined will serve the riders of the Bay
Area,’ said Paul Junge, the Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce's public policy director.” [Oakland

“When Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed two laws establishing a health reform exchange Friday, it was a
historic moment. It was also, more subtly, a defiant moment, as the governor drafted into law concepts that some
health insurers and the California Chamber of Commerce bitterly opposed. On Tuesday, the Chamber of Commerce
ran a full-page ad in the Los Angeles Times, urging Schwarzenegger not to sign the law. “The devil’s in the
details,” the ad said. ‘We respectfully ask you to veto AB 1602 and SB 900.’ The ad, also signed by California
Taxpayers' Association and the National Federation of Independent Business, said the bills would levy fees on the
cost of the health care exchange that would be passed to patients. And it would operate with virtually no oversight,
the ad says.” [California Watch via Internet Archive, 10/4/10]

Junge Spread Misinformation During A Pandemic
Significant Findings
✓ Junge spread misinformation regarding COVID-19, hosting a doctor and state Republican operative
named Rob Steele who spread falsehoods regarding the disease.
✓ Dr. Rob Steele claimed, “testing is no more important for opening up the economy than it’d be
in a bad flu season.” This was false.
✓ Steele suggested that COVID-19 was no more severe than the seasonal flu in spite of the

Steele Claimed That Earlier Projections Regarding COVID-19 Were “Completely Wrong”
Steele Claimed That Earlier Projections Regarding COVID-19 Were “Completely Wrong.” “JUNGE: ‘We’re
seeing record unemployment and that’s because orders from the government saying you must shut down economic
activity and those impacts are real. […] You wrote an editorial that was published, I think it was in The Detroit
News not much more than a week ago with some really useful information about what we’ve learned. Maybe it
wasn’t unreasonable back in March or even earlier to say gosh what could happen and take action but we’ve
learned a lot since then, haven’t we?’ […] STEELE: ‘What we see from the beginning is that the initial projections
Paul Junge (MI-08) Research Book | 23
of everything having to do with both worldwide and having to do with various countries and for various things,
mortality, infections, disabilities and so forth, we found that the original theories and projections, hypotheses were
completely wrong and now we have a lot of data to show that’s the case” [COVID Q&A Happy Hour With Dr.
Rob Steele, 4:12, 5/14/20]
Steele Claimed, “Testing Is No More Important For Opening Up The Economy Than It’d Be In A
Bad Flu Season.” This Was False.
Steele Claimed “Testing Is No More Important For Opening Up The Economy Than It’d Be In A Bad Flu
Season. “JUNGE: ‘Speaking of tests, you mentioned just a moment ago that out in LA whether it was the mayor or
somebody else said that we can’t open until we have a vaccine and you’ve already addressed why that’s just
nonsensical. People talk about the important role testing will play opening back up, some people have suggested
until we can test everybody all the time. What’re your thoughts about the role testing will play in opening back up
economic and all kinds of activity? STEELE: ‘Well the most important role for testing is in protecting the people
who’re higher risk and the health care workers who are in contact with the higher risk people. Testing is no more
important for opening up the economy than it’d be in a bad flu season.’ JUNGE: ‘Mhm-hm.’” [COVID Q&A
Happy Hour With Dr. Rob Steele, 28:13, 5/14/20]
According To Robert Redfield, The Trump-Appointed Director Of The CDC, Widespread Tracing Is
Needed For Reopening To Occur. “I want to spend a moment to focus on several key elements. First testing,
rapid, extensive and widely available timely testing is essential for reopening America.” [Robert Redfield,
Senate Health Committee, 5/23/20]
Formed CDC Director Tom Frieden Stated That Widespread Contact Tracing And Testing Is Necessary
For Reopening. ““In order to go back out, we need to box the virus in. After flattening the curve, the next step
is to box the virus in by implementing four essential actions – test, isolate, contact trace, and quarantine. All are
crucial; if anyone is weak, the virus can escape and spread explosively again.” [Tom Frieden, House
Appropriations Committee, 5/6/20]
Caitlin, Rivers, With The Johns Hopkins University School Of Public Health, Echoed These Comments.
“These three capacities – testing, contact tracing, and healthcare – are what will enable us to transition safely
from staying home to slow the spread into a gradual reopening.” [Caitlin Rivers, House Appropriations
Committee, 5/6/20]
Steele Suggested That COVID-19 Was No More Severe Than The Seasonal Flu In Spite Of The
Unequivocal Conclusions Of Public Health Officials To The Contrary
Steele Said The Media Was Scaremongering Over A Disease That Was “In Essence” The Flu. “STEELE: We
have the media trying full time to make people afraid of something that in essence, in a general way, you should be
thinking about it being a severe flu.” [COVID Q&A Happy Hour With Dr. Rob Steele, 21:11, 5/14/20]
Steele Said That COVID-19 “Approximates The Flu.” “We have enough information to know now that it
approximates the flu.” [COVID Q&A Happy Hour With Dr. Rob Steele, 21:36, 5/14/20]
Testing Has Reinforced The Scientific Consensus That Steele’s Statements Are False. “‘Results from
coronavirus antibody tests have started to trickle in, and they bolster the consensus among disease experts that the
virus is significantly more lethal than seasonal flu and has seeded the most disruptive pandemic in the past century.
‘I think it is the worst pandemic since 1918,’ said Cecile Viboud, an epidemiologist at the National Institutes of
Health’s Fogarty International Center, alluding to the ‘Great Influenza’ pandemic that claimed an estimated
675,000 lives in the United States.’” [Washington Post, 4/28/20]

Steele Accused Frontline Medical Staff Of Misattributing Cases To COVID-19 To Receive Higher Payouts.
“STEELE: ‘I know hospitals right now are working their tails off looking at every chart that might have COVID
attached to it and turning it into the primary diagnosis so they can get a higher payment. That’s unequivocally
true.’” [COVID Q&A Happy Hour With Dr. Rob Steele, 35:44, 5/14/20]
Steele Also Claimed That Overall Deaths In The U.S. Were Lower Than Average. “To see that it’s really
different you would have to say that the total death rate in the United States should be quite in excess over previous
years, and it’s in the range, it’s less than the average of the last few years actually. It’s in the range.” [COVID Q&A
Happy Hour With Dr. Rob Steele, 38:47, 5/14/20]
Dr. Anthony Fauci Of NIH Has Stated That COVID-19 Deaths Are Undercounted, Not Inflated. “A month
ago, the government’s top infectious disease expert, Anthony S. Fauci, appeared on the ‘Today’ show to discuss the
ongoing coronavirus pandemic. Asked whether experts were overstating the number of deaths from covid-19, the
disease caused by the virus, Fauci said that was unlikely. He was then asked whether the deaths were being
undercounted. ‘I think there’s more of a chance of missing some that are really coronavirus deaths that are not
being counted,’ he said, “but I don’t think that number is significant enough to really substantially modify the
trends that we’re seeing at all.’ […] A version of the same question was posed to Fauci during his testimony before
the Senate on Tuesday. ‘The official statistic, Dr. Fauci, is that 80,000 Americans have died from the pandemic,’
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) said, referring to the current death toll. ‘There are some epidemiologists who suggest
the number may be 50 percent higher than that. What do you think?’ ‘I’m not sure, Senator Sanders, if it’s going to
be 50 percent higher,’ Fauci replied. ‘But most of us feel that the number of deaths are likely higher than that
number.’” [Washington Post, 5/12/20]

well very low risk. For people who get it it’s moderate. But even older people who get this disease their death rate
is still low, I mean low, 10% or whatever. [COVID Q&A Happy Hour With Dr. Rob Steele, 28:53, 5/14/20]

2020: Junge Supported “Some Exceptions” For Immunization Against Communicable Disease. “Q: ‘I was
wondering, what’s your position on mandatory immunizations?’ […] JUNGE: ‘There’s a couple different parts I
think to immunizations. I think, If you look at what modern medicine was able to do in eradicating polio,
eradicating, or eradicating… I forget them because they’re basically gone… yeah all of these deadly diseases that
killed hundreds of thousands of people, there, as a matter of public health, with some exceptions for conscience, or
for medical reasons.” [Larry Parsons, YouTube, 3/7/20]
2020: Junge Said That HPV Vaccines Needed A “Careful Looking”, And That They Shouldn’t
Necessarily Be Mandatory
2020: Junge Said That HPV Vaccines Needed To Be “Carefully” Looked At. “JUNGE: ‘Some of the problems
that are occurring with other types of immunizations do deserve some careful looking. I don’t have children of my
own, so I am not as personally involved with this.’” [Larry Parsons, YouTube, 3/7/20]
Junge Claimed That HPV Is Not A Communicable Disease And That The Vaccine Should Not Be
Mandatory. “I understand that for cervical cancer that they are requiring immunizations and I’m like wait a
minute that’s not a communicable disease where we necessarily need to have immunization for everyone.”
[Larry Parsons, YouTube, 3/7/20]

cervical cancers are associated with human papillomavirus (HPV), a sexually transmitted infection. Widespread

Junge Was A Member Of The Torrey Pines Academic Team. “Torrey Pines High School defeated Escondido
High School 84-64 last night to win the North County Academic League championship. […] Both sides missed the
first tossup question, asking for the Italian word for ‘slow down’ in music, which is ‘ritardando’ or ‘ritard.’ But
both teams settled down, although one could see the anxiety in the Escondido team of Busse, Jose Duarte, Jeff
Hobbs, Velina Underwood and Vinka Valdivia as Torrey Pines jumped to its big, early lead. Then the nervous
looks and squirming came from the Torrey Pines team of Ensign, Mike Maheu, Paul Junge, Ted Cox and James
Schwall as Escondido climbed back and into the lead. But Torrey Pines, backed by some loud supporters, took
control in the waning minutes. The semifinal matches lasted 25 minutes each.” [SDUT, 5/11/84]

Junge’s Father Created A Scholarship For The University Of Michigan That Junge Himself
Would Have Not Been Eligible For As A Student
Junge’s Father Supported A Scholarship At The University Of Michigan-Dearborn That Paul
Junge Would Not Have Been Eligible For
Junge’s Father Created The Junge Family Scholarship At The University Of Michigan-Dearborn. “When
John Junge was applying to college as a teenager in Jackson, Michigan, he assumed he would have to go to
community college first because of financial constraints. But he won a scholarship to the University of Michigan in
Ann Arbor instead. After learning about the Dearborn campus's cooperative education program, he transferred so he
could earn money in his chosen profession while finishing his studies. Now he's giving back. Junge, '64 BSE-IE,
'67 MBA, established a scholarship for high school students who want to attend the University of Michigan-
Dearborn College of Engineering and Computer Science.” [University of Michigan, accessed 5/12/20]
The Scholarship Was Only Available To Students Who Attended High School In Michigan Or Transferred
From Local Community Colleges. “The Junge Family Endowed Scholarship Fund, established by a gift of
$350,000, provides scholarships to undergraduate students in the Department of Industrial and Manufacturing
Systems Engineering at the College of Engineering and Computer Science. Students must have attended a
Michigan high school or have transferred from Jackson Community College, Henry Ford Community College,
Calvin College, or Hope College. ‘We are honored that John Junge and his family chose to give back to the College
of Engineering and Computer Science,’ said Dean Subrata Sengupta. ‘Mr. Junge's generosity ensures that another
generation of engineers will have the opportunity to follow his path. We are very grateful for that.’ Since 1985,
Junge has owned All-Star Inc., a San Diego-based company that provides management and operations service to
certain government and military facilities in 18 states and Germany. The company earns about $250 million in
gross annual sales and employs more than 1,200 people.” [University of Michigan, accessed 5/12/20]

California. [Paul Junge, LinkedIn, accessed 4/17/20]
Junge’s Father Also Provided $2 Million For An Athletic Events Facility At The University Of
Michigan In Ann Arbor
Junge’s Father Also Provided $2 Million For An Athletic Events Facility At The University Of Michigan In
Ann Arbor. “As a high school student in the late 1950s in Jackson, Mich., John Junge thought he would attend
community college due to personal financial limitations. But after earning a scholarship to the University of
Michigan, he was able to graduate with two degrees -- a bachelor's in industrial engineering in 1964 and an MBA in
1967 -- and enjoy a successful career in business. Over the next 37 years, as the CEO and president of Champions
of the West, Inc./All Star International in San Diego, Junge had more than realized the value of his investment.
When Junge and his family learned in 2002 that the Michigan Athletic Department sorely needed an events center
for recruiting, banquets, press conferences and meetings, the family donated more than $2 million toward the
construction of an 11,400-square-foot facility. The $4.5 million facility was completed in 2005 and named the
Junge Family Champions Center and Mortenson Family Plaza.” [University of Michigan, 1/22/13]

1994: Junge’s “Highly Inappropriate” Actions In A Case Resulted In A Mistrial And The Near Dismissal Of
Domestic Violence Charges Against A Defendant
Junge Was Assigned As A Prosecutor For A Case Against Someone Charged With Spousal Battery. “The
judge's ruling means that Mitchell Blair, 38, of Oxnard, must stand trial on a misdemeanor spousal battery charge.
The case is scheduled to return to court today for assignment to trial.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
Junge Barged Into A Meeting Between A Public Defender And The Defendant’s Wife, The Alleged Victim In
The Case. “Blair's case was in trial last month when Junge saw Blair's wife, the alleged victim in the case, enter a
conference room in the public defender's office, according to court records. Moments later, he and a district
attorney's investigator entered the room without knocking and gave the woman a subpoena, Brodie said.” [Los
Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
The Judge In The Case Called Junge’s Actions “Highly Inappropriate” And Declared A Mistrial. “Paul
Junge were ‘highly inappropriate,’ Judge Edward F. Brodie ruled that the defense was not harmed by the
prosecutor's conduct. […] The judge declared a mistrial when he learned what happened, and Assistant Dist.
Atty. Kevin J. McGee apologized to the public defender's office. [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
Junge Was Removed From The Case. “Deputy Dist. Atty. Kevin G. De Noce, who said Junge has been
removed from the case, argued against dismissal of the charge. He said Junge's actions were improper, but
dismissal was too severe a sanction.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
The Defense Argued For Dismissal Of Charges, Jeopardizing The State’s Entire Case. “However, the public
defender's office argued in court that Junge's behavior was so inappropriate, it justified dismissal of the case.
Deputy Public Defender Randolph Tucker said the incident interrupted Blair's wife as she was about to recant her
earlier statements to police about being beaten by the defendant.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
Junge Interrupted The Alleged Victim Preparing To Recant Her Statements To Police. “Deputy Public
Defender Randolph Tucker said the incident interrupted Blair's wife as she was about to recant her earlier
statements to police about being beaten by the defendant.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
The Judge Ultimately Declined To Dismiss Charges Outright. “A prosecutor who barged into a defense
attorney's office to subpoena a witness did not behave so badly that criminal charges should be dismissed against
the defendant, a Municipal Court judge ruled Tuesday.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]

2011: Junge Backed The Oakland Police Chief After His Resignation Following A Dispute With The Mayor
2011: Oakland Police Chief Anthony W. Batts Resigned Following Disputes With The Mayor And City
Council. “Oakland Police Chief Anthony W. Batts, who clashed with Mayor Jean Quan and the City Council over
staffing and resources amid a rise in violent crime, announced his resignation Tuesday in a letter to Police
Department employees. Batts, who joined the department in 2009 after being recruited away from Long Beach by
Paul Junge (MI-08) Research Book | 42
then-Mayor Ronald V. Dellums, did not say why he was leaving or what he planned to do next. In his resignation
letter, the chief said he believed when taking the job that he was answering ‘the call for a reform-minded chief; a
leader with a focus on community policing and high professional standards.’” [Los Angeles Times, 10/11/11]
Junge Expressed Regrets At Batts’ Resignation. “In an interview Tuesday, Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of
Commerce public policy director Paul Junge expressed regret at Batts' resignation and said, ‘it did appear that there
was some disconnect between the police chief and the mayor.’ Junge added that Quan "does show good energy and
interest" in public safety. An Oakland ballot measure passed years ago is supposed to guarantee a minimal police
force of 803 officers, but the numbers have plummeted into the mid-600s. Junge said Batts had addressed the
chamber just six or so weeks ago and "he spoke with a good deal of passion and conviction about curfews and anti-
loitering measures. ‘But at a recent council meeting on the topic he ‘seemed very muted. We did kind of wonder if
he didn't feel supported at the higher levels of the city.’” [Los Angeles Times, 10/11/11]
Anthony Batts Later Served As The Baltimore Police Chief Until His Firing In 2015 In The Wake Of
Protests In That City. “The Baltimore mayor fired the troubled city's police commissioner Wednesday, saying
that a recent spike in homicide rates weeks after a black man died of injuries in police custody required a
change in leadership. Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake thanked Police Commissioner Anthony Batts for his
service and announced that she was appointing Deputy Police Commissioner Kevin Davis as interim
commissioner. […] The firing comes 2 1/2 months after the city broke out into riots following the death of
Freddie Gray, who died in April of injuries he received in police custody. Six police officers have been
criminally charged in Gray's death.” [CBS News, 7/8/15]
2011: Junge Expressed Concern About The “Negative Ramifications” On The Business Community Of
Occupy Wall Street Protests In Oakland
2011: Junge Expressed Concern About The “Negative Ramifications” On The Business Community Of
Occupy Wall Street Protests In Oakland. “Oakland employers braced on Tuesday for a planned general strike by
the Occupy Oakland movement, with some deciding to stay open, others opting to close, still others letting
employees work from home -- and some closing in sympathy with the aims of the protest. […] The Oakland
Chamber of Commerce raised alarms about the continued economic impact. ‘There are a number of negative
ramifications from these protests,’ said Paul Junge, director of public policy with the chamber.’ A number of local
businesses are seeing sales drop off dramatically.” [Contra Costa Times, 11/1/11]
Junge Claimed That The Protests Called Commercial Real Estate Deals In Oakland To Fall Through. “The
revived Occupy Oakland movement has called for a citywide general strike Wednesday that has garnered
nationwide support from activists and the philosophical backing of labor unions, while triggering growing
consternation that the city's strained economy could suffer further. […] Meanwhile, some merchants in the plaza
say business has plummeted. And Paul Junge, public policy director for the Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of
Commerce, said two commercial landlords had nearly inked deals fall through.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/2/11]
Junge Claimed That The Rescinded Agreements Amounted To At Least 35,000 Square Feet Of Office
Space. “Paul Junge, the chamber's public policy director, said three companies have rescinded their plans to
move into at least 35,000 square feet of office space, citing the safety issues brought on by the protest. Junge
said he hears complaints from business owners who are facing 40 to 50 percent reductions in sales and an
increase in shoplifting. He added that the protest is also undermining the city's recent ‘renaissance’ and bout of
optimism, and current shop owners now say they would not sign leases with the city because of the protest.”
Oakland is not a city without its challenges Junge said, but this protest has brought the city ‘10 steps back.’”
[International Business Times News, 11/11/11]
Junge Said The Protests Added To The “Uphill Battle” For Oakland. “‘There are real business consequences to
this occupation, to this agitation, to the protest," said Paul Junge, the Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce
policy director. ‘Oakland is a great place, and there's so much positive to sell about it, but we are fighting an uphill
battle.’” [Los Angeles Times, 11/5/11]
Paul Junge (MI-08) Research Book | 43
Junge Blamed Some Of The Protesters Actions On Oakland Councilwoman Jean Quan, And Said That She
Shouldn’t Let “Kids” Override “Law And Order.” “A year ago, lifelong progressive activist and Oakland
Councilwoman Jean Quan linked arms with protesters and faced off against a phalanx of officers in riot gear near
this city's graceful civic center. On Thursday there she was as mayor, police chief by her side, trying to explain her
response to Occupy Oakland. Quan had ordered police last week to dismantle the tent city. Then she let the
protesters rebuild. A general strike Wednesday started out peacefully but turned violent. Amid the unrest, residents
have launched a mayoral recall effort. Business owners are demanding the encampment be shut down for good.
Protesters vow to stay. […] ‘There are real business consequences to this occupation, to this agitation, to the
protest,’ said Paul Junge, the Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce policy director. ‘Oakland is a great
place, and there's so much positive to sell about it, but we are fighting an uphill battle. ‘With parenting, you don't
let the kids set the rules and the agenda,’ he said of Quan's approach. ‘Too much of the language is, 'We're asking
them to do this.' Hey, you have to establish law and order.’” [Los Angeles Times, 11/5/11]
Junge Claimed That Oakland Businesses Saw A 40%-60% Decline In Sales As A Results Of Occupy
Protests. “The effects of Occupy Oakland have rippled beyond the city plaza, said Paul Junge, public policy
director of the Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce. ‘We are seeing serious losses of business,’ Junge
said. ‘People have lost 40 percent, 50 percent, 60 percent of their sales’ Occupy Oakland representatives responded
that small merchants are among those the movement aims to help.” [San Jose Mercury News, 11/8/11]
Junge Also Claimed Similar Figures In A Letter To Mayor Quan. “Owners of some small Oakland, Calif.,
businesses are urging Occupy protesters to pack up and go home, saying the encampments are killing business.
"The impact of the urban encampment has been very negative," said Paul Junge, public policy director for the
Oakland Chamber of Commerce. ‘We are aware of dozens of small businesses in and around Frank Ogawa
Plaza where the tents are, reporting 40 percent to 50 percent losses in the past three or four weeks, including
clothing stores, coffee shops, and conference spaces.’ Junge said people are avoiding demonstrators in Oakland,
where protesters shut down the port and clashed with police downtown, resulting in more than 100 arrests.
Store windows were broken and buildings were spray-painted with graffiti. ‘They don't like walking around
down there, it makes them nervous, they are taking their business elsewhere,’ he said in a three-page letter to
Mayor Jean Quan, The Christian Science Monitor reported.” [UPI, 11/10/11]
Junge Said That Local Politicians’ Sympathy For The Occupy Protests Caused The City To Become “A
Magnet For Lots Of Folks Who Aren’t From Oakland In Creating Problems For Lots Of Regular Folks.”
“PAUL JUNGE: In their anxiousness to show some sympathy to the cause and not be the bad guys, it ends up being
a magnet for lots of folks who aren't from Oakland in creating problems for lots of regular folks just trying to go
about their day to day business who really weren't part of the problem in the first place.” [NPR, All Things
Considered, 11/9/11]
Junge Called The Impact Of A Protester Encampment “Very Negative.” “‘The impact of the urban
encampment has been very negative," says Paul Junge, public policy director for the Oakland Metropolitan
Chamber of Commerce. Three businesses with commitments to new leases in the downtown area, which would
have brought in some 350 jobs, backed out of their agreements in the past three weeks, he says. ‘We are aware of
dozens of small businesses in and around Frank Ogawa Plaza where the tents are, reporting 40 to 50 percent losses
in the past three or four weeks,’ including clothing stores, coffee shops, and conference spaces, Mr. Junge says.
‘People don't like walking around down there, it makes them nervous ... they are taking their business elsewhere.’”

2011: Junge Supported The City Of Oakland’s Action To Clear The Occupy Protestor Encampment
2011: Junge Supported The City Of Oakland’s Action To Clear The Occupy Protestor Encampment.
“Oakland police, acting early Monday morning, have now cleared the Occupy Oakland encampment for a second
time. But it is still not clear whether the municipality and protesters are drawing up hard battle lines or if these local
skirmishes have implications for the overall Occupy movement. What is clear is that in Oakland, city and business
Paul Junge (MI-08) Research Book | 44
leaders are on one side, with protesters and a variety of supporters, such as unions, on the other. According to a city
statement Monday morning, ‘lodging will be strictly prohibited’ in the Frank Ogawa Plaza near City Hall, where
protesters have been ensconced since Oct. 10. And, says Paul Junge, director of public policy for the Oakland
Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce, ‘we are pleased with the action the city took.’” [Christian Science Monitor,
11/14/11]
Junge Backed A City Council Resolution To Police The Port Of Oakland Against Protestors.
“Councilmember Ignacio De La Fuente said Wednesday he will reintroduce a resolution aimed at averting another
protester-driven port shutdown, one day after his council colleagues chose not to vote on it. ‘Like I said last night,
we have to be responsible for our actions,’ he said. ‘The mayor and the City Council have to be on record on this.’”
[…] Port of Oakland Executive Director Omar Benjamin and the Chamber of Commerce's Paul Junge backed the
resolution, warning that repeated protests could hurt the port's ability to measure up with competitors along the
West Coast. ‘You of course are the legitimate authority for the people of Oakland,’ Junge told the council. ‘It is
absolutely appropriate that you should direct your police chief and city administrator to uphold the laws of
Oakland.’” [San Jose Mercury News, 12/21/11]
2011: Junge Supported An Injunction Against An Oakland Gang, Despite Evidence That It Did Not Reduce
Violent Crime
2011: Junge Supported An Injunction Against An Oakland Gang, Despite Evidence That It Did Not Reduce
Violent Crime. “The North Oakland gang injunction has not reduced violent crime, according to a report by the
Oakland Police Department that shows homicides, assaults and other serious crimes have risen in the safety zone
area defined by the injunction, and arrests for weapons and drugs are way down. […] Before the gang injunction
went into effect there were 123 violent crimes, including two homicides, between April 4, 2009, and June 1, 2010.
After the injunction was implemented, there were 176 violent crimes, including three homicides, between June 2,
2010, and Oct. 6, 2011. Weapons arrests dropped 58 percent, and drug arrests fell 71 percent. […] But Paul Junge,
public policy director for the Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce, said the business community supports
the injunction, despite the statistics that show that violent crime has not decreased. ‘It's a reasonable conclusion that
it seems to be effective if only because 15 gang members did not commit crimes in the safety zone,’ he said.” [San
Jose Mercury News, 11/8/11]
2012: Junge Worked With The Group Stand For Oakland, Which Was Formed To Express Opposition To
The Occupy Oakland Protestors
Junge Was A Part Of Stand For Oakland, Who Led A Demonstration To The Oakland Courthouse
Opposing The Occupy Protests. “Occupy Oakland protesters got a taste of their own medicine Monday.
Occupiers marched from a courthouse to Frank H. Ogawa Plaza for a noon rally only to find about 40 people
protesting them. The group, calling itself Stand for Oakland, was organized by several neighborhood leaders to
show public opposition to Occupy Oakland's recent costly demonstrations and its focus on Oakland police, rather
than the travails of the poor and middle class. ‘I think this will make them see that the citizens are concerned and
that the citizens are tired of the actions that they are taking,’ said Angela Haller, a Neighborhood Watch leader who
helped organize the rally. Among those participating in Stand for Oakland was Councilwoman Desley Brooks,
several neighborhood leaders, developer Phil Tagami and Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce official
Paul Junge.” [Contra Costa Times, 2/6/12]
The Group Was Outnumbered By Occupy Oakland Protestors. “They were outnumbered in the plaza by
about 150 Occupy supporters, who had scheduled their own rally to decry police violence. Members of the
dueling rallies intermingled, but the Occupiers' only skirmish was with police.” [Contra Costa Times, 2/6/12]
Stand For Oakland Was Ridiculed By Occupy Oakland For The Presence Of Junge, As A Representative
Of The Chamber Of Commerce, In Their Demonstration. “Peg and other citizens, of all political stripes,
have formed an anti-Occupy group called Stand for Oakland. At the recent anti-repression rally, they staged a
silent counter-protest, standing on the steps of City Hall, staring down the shouting Occupiers right in front of
Paul Junge (MI-08) Research Book | 45
them. Occupiers gleefully pointed me to one official from the Oakland Chamber of Commerce, Paul Junge, in
the crowd, as good reason to dismiss the counter-protesters as corporatists and agents of the 1 percent.”

2012: Junge Opposed A Proposed Alameda County Ordinance To Force Drugmakers To Dispose Of Unused
Drugs
2012: Junge Opposed An Alameda County Ordinance To Force Drugmakers To Dispose Of Unused Drugs.
“After a week of intense eleventh-hour lobbying by drug companies, Alameda County supervisors decided to delay
an ordinance that would have made it the first local government to require pharmaceutical companies to take back
their products. A 4-0 vote in favor of the ordinance was expected. Instead supervisors decided to postpone a vote
until no later than June. […] Paul Junge from the Oakland Municipal Chamber of Commerce also warned that
thousands of drug companies might decide not to do business in Alameda County because of the ordinance.
‘That would be bad for all our residents,’ Junge said.” [Contra Costa Times, 3/13/13]
The Proposal Was Introduced To Combat Prescription Drug Addiction. “There already are 128 drug drop-
off sites in the Bay Area, used by residents in 2009 to dispose of 60,000 pounds of unwanted pharmaceuticals.
Alameda County's ordinance, which estimates costs at $200,000, would have required manufacturers to come
up with detailed plans for financing and collecting prescription and over-the-counter drugs. Companies could
not pass on the cost to consumers.” [Contra Costa Times, 3/13/13]
2012: Junge Supported BART’s Purchase Of Over A Billion Dollars In Rail Cars From Bombardier, A
Canadian Corporation
2012: Junge Supported BART’s Purchase Of Over A Billion Dollars In Rail Cars From Bombardier, A
Canadian Corporation, Over Union Objections. “BART's board of directors voted unanimously Thursday to buy
410 new train cars for $896.3 million from a Canadian firm, over objections that not enough of the contract will be
fulfilled by U.S. workers and suppliers. This marks the first time in 40 years that the Bay Area Rapid Transit
district is buying vehicles with entirely new technology, without needing them to be compatible with an older fleet.
The board is expected to buy more cars from Canada-based Bombardier later on, for a total of 775 cars at a total
cost of $1.54 billion. […] James Beno, directing business representative for an Oakland-based International
Association of Machinists union lodge, urged the board to "take a few months to let this go back out to your best
bidders." Representatives from the BlueGreen Alliance and the Courage Campaign said they've gathered thousands
of petition signatures from BART riders and taxpayers urging the same. But many speakers from the business
community urged the board to honor its own bid process, accept Bombardier's bid and move ahead without further
delay. ‘Take the best product at the lowest price, that your process has determined will serve the riders of the Bay
Area,’ said Paul Junge, the Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce's public policy director.” [Oakland

but this is only a glimpse of the chaos to come, say union leaders representing tens of thousands of municipal and
transit workers in Northern California. After five years of pay cuts, furloughs and reductions in vacation, sick time
and pensions, union members who work for cities, counties and special districts say they're fed up and prepared to
walk off their jobs, even at the risk of losing pay or getting fired, labor officials said. […] ‘Nobody's unsympathetic
to people's desire to get pay increases. We all want that,’ said Paul Junge, who directs public policy for the Oakland
Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce. ‘But I think it would be a mistake to say that only government workers have
had hard times or made sacrifices over the past few years,’ he added. ‘Thousands of businesses have failed,
thousands more have seen their profits and revenues decline, thousands of employees have lost their jobs in the
private sector, or seen their hours cut back. Times have been difficult for more than government workers.’ The
public should remember that Local 1021 members are part of the Bay Area, as well. They're neighbors, friends,
relatives - all of whom pay taxes and contribute to their communities in myriad ways, he said. By paying them
decent salaries, the entire community benefits, he said.” [San Francisco Chronicle, 6/30/13]

2013: Junge Supported An Agreement That Would Contract The California Highway Patrol To Provide
Law Enforcement For The City Of Oakland
Early 2013: The City Of Oakland Was Considering Paying The California Highway Patrol To Police The
City Of Oakland After An Initial Was Set To Expire. “The California Highway Patrol is willing to help police
some of Oakland’s most dangerous streets for another three months, but this time it wants to be paid for its services,
city officials said Tuesday. The CHP’s initial 90-day agreement to help Oakland’s undermanned police force
expires at the end of this week. City officials had hoped that the CHP would continue providing officers free of
charge, but those hopes were dashed last week when the City Council agreed to pay for similar help from the
Alameda County Sheriff’s Office. ‘They do want to be paid because the (the sheriff’s office) is going to be paid,”
OPD spokeswoman Johnna Watson said. CHP officials could not be reached for comment late Tuesday. Mayor
Jean Quan said she was hopeful that state grants could be used to help cover some of the patrol costs going forward
and that she would soon meet with the CHP about preserving the Oakland patrols. ‘This assistance came in a time
of need, and this need still exits,’ she said in a prepared statement. Highway patrolmen began policing high-crime
sections of Oakland in early November after city officials and a prominent minister asked Gov. Jerry Brown for
help to combat the city’s surging crime rate.” [Mercury News, 1/29/13]

Campaigns
Campaign 2020
November 2019: Junge Launched His Campaign For MI-08
November 2019: Junge Launched His Campaign For MI-08. “The race to try to take on Democratic U.S. Rep.
Elissa Slotkin in next year's general election grew by two candidates on Thursday, both of whom attacked her
support of the impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump. Paul Junge, a former TV anchor in Lansing who
also worked on Capitol Hill and for the Trump administration before moving back to Michigan this year, said he
will run for the Republican nomination in Michigan's 8th Congressional District.” [Detroit Free Press, 11/14/19]
HEADLINE: More From GOP To Challenge Slotkin; Ex-TV Anchor Junge, Attorney Lyke Join 2 Other
Republicans For 8th Congressional District. [Detroit Free Press, 11/14/19]
Junge Said That He Supported Smaller Government, Lower Taxes, And Fewer Regulations
Junge Said That He Supported Smaller Government, Lower Taxes, And Fewer Regulations. “In an interview
Thursday, Junge, 53, said he favored Republican positions for smaller government, lower taxes and less intrusive
regulations. He said he was a supporter of Trump's and that he took Trump's remarks to Zelensky as part of a ‘broad
discussion about looking into corruption.’” [Detroit Free Press, 11/14/19]
Junge Accused Rep. Slotkin Of Supporting The More Liberal Wing OF The Democratic Party With Little
Evidence
Junge Accused Rep. Slotkin Of Supporting The More Liberal Wing OF The Democratic Party With Little
Evidence. “Like Junge, she accused Slotkin of supporting the more liberal wing of the Democratic Party, even
though Slotkin has voiced concerns about the potentially wide-reaching effects of sweeping environmental
initiatives proposed in the House as well as throwing her support behind a program that would allow Medicare-style
coverage to be made available as a public health care option rather than requiring a single government-run system
for all Americans.” [Detroit Free Press, 11/14/19]
Paul Junge (MI-08) Research Book | 78
November 2019: The Detroit Free Press Noted That Junge Was Born In Michigan But Raised In California
November 2019: The Detroit Free Press Noted That Junge Was Born In Michigan But Raised In California.
“Before returning to Michigan this year, Junge, who was born in Michigan but raised in California, served as a
deputy district attorney in Ventura, California; a TV anchor on Fox 47 in Lansing; an investigative counsel for U.S.
Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, and an external affairs adviser for U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services
throughout 2018.” [Detroit Free Press, 11/14/19]
December 2019: The New York Times Noted That Junge Moved To Michigan To Run For Congress. ‘And
Ms. Slotkin knew what to expect on Monday. In September, after she and six other so-called national security
freshmen wrote an opinion article in The Washington Post calling for an impeachment inquiry, she faced much the
same reception. She has already drawn several Republican challengers, including Paul Junge, a former TV anchor
in Lansing, Mich., who worked for the Trump administration before moving back to Michigan to run.” [New York
Times, 12/16/19]
December 2019: Junge Said That Impeachment Was Increasing Opposition To Rep. Slotkin
December 2019: Junge Said That Impeachment Was Increasing Opposition To Rep. Slotkin. “Slotkin said
Monday that she was aware her choice may cost her reelection, but said the issue was too important to only do what
is ‘politically expedient.’ The freshman Democrat has yet to draw a high-profile challenger for next year's election,
though a number of lesser known contenders have already jumped in. One of them, former local television anchor
Paul Junge, said impeachment was galvanizing discontent toward Slotkin, who had campaigned in 2018 as a
moderate problem-solver. ‘She's not focusing on the things she said she would,’ Junge said. ‘As I travel around the
district, I find that impeaching the president is something that people actively oppose. They want their votes to be
respected.’” [Washington Post, 12/16/19]
January 2020: Junge Claimed His Campaign Had Raised Over $250,000; This Was Not True
January 2020: Junge Claimed His Campaign Had Raised Over $250,000; This Was Not True. “In an online
article, WHMI-FM Howell, MI (1/9, 1K) reports that ‘former Lansing-area TV news anchor’ Paul Junge (R), who
is seeking to take on freshman MI8 Rep. Elissa Slotkin (D) this fall, says his ‘campaign raised over $250,000’ in
the little over six weeks since launching his campaign in mid-November. The report says that Junge, who ‘most
recently worked in the Trump Administration at US Citizenship and Immigration Services,’ faces five other
candidates in the GOP primary.” [The Frontrunner, 1/10/20]
As Of Q1 2020, Junge’s Campaign Had Raised $194,346 With Personal Loans And Self-Financing
Excluded. [FEC Committee Candidate and Committee Viewer, accessed 4/24/20]
February 2020: Junge Campaign Fundraising Through WinRed Falsely Claimed That He Was “Raised By
His Middle-Class Parents In Michigan”
Junge Campaign Fundraising Through WinRed Falsely Claimed That He Was “Raised By His Middle-Class
Parents In Michigan.” “Conservative Republican Paul Junge is running to defeat Pro-Impeachment Liberal
Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin. Paul Junge was born and raised by his middle-class parents in Michigan.”
[WinRed, 2/16/20]
Junge Himself Admitted To MLive That He Was At Least Partially Raised In California. “Junge said he
was born in Ann Arbor and raised by middle-class parents in Michigan and California. He graduated from the
University of California, Berkeley and obtained his law degree from the University of San Diego before
becoming a deputy district attorney in California.” [MLive, 11/14/19]
Paul Junge (MI-08) Research Book | 79
John P. Junge, Junge’s Father, Moved To San Diego In 1974 When Paul Junge Was 8 Years Old. “A job
with Rohr Industries lured John Junge to San Diego in 1974. In 1976 he began working in the military family
housing maintenance business where he would dedicate the bulk of his career, ultimately acquiring and
operating his own company, All Star Maintenance, which he oversaw until his retirement a few years ago. John
lived most of his adult life in California but never forgot his Michigan roots.” [MLive Obituaries, 7/29/19]
February 2020: Junge Was Attacked By GOP Primary Opponents For His Lack Of Roots In MI-08
Junge Bragged About His Financial Resources At A Candidate Forum. “Really, the only thing that separated
the five Republicans seeking to face U.S. Rep. Elissa Slotkin (D-Holly) during tonight's Livingston County
candidate forum was that Paul Junge has financial resources. And, as his opponents pointed out, lacks the roots in
the district they have. Roughly 500 Republicans filled a Crystal Gardens Banquet Center ballroom to hear Junge
flag the $273,000 he raised last year compared to the $12,000 the other four raised combined as the reason why he's
in the best position to face the freshman Democratic congresswoman in November. The former TV personality
also is the only Republican in the competitive 8th Congressional District to be a part of the National Republican
Campaign Committee's Young Guns program for hitting certain goals. ‘I can tell you that I'm the only candidate up
on this dais with the financial resources to answer the attacks to help us win this seat back,’ Junge said. ‘Ladies and
gentlemen, we'd all be Republican votes, but we'll need financial resources to beat Elissa Slotkin.’” [Lansing City
Pulse, 2/21/20]
Junge Was Criticized By Primary Opponents For His Sporadic Residence In MI-08. “The proclamation during
yesterday's nearly two-hour forum put a target on his back. Real estate agent Mike Detmer called out Junge for
being a sporadic resident of the 8th Congressional District. He also said whoever wins the primary will have money
coming in from local, state and national Republican interests. ‘But to say, 'I'm the best candidate for the job because
I raised $275,000 when $150,000 of that is his own money and the rest was frontloaded from family, friends and
business associates in California?’ Detmer said. ‘You don't own a home. You don't have a business. You don't
work here. You don't live here. You don't live here. It's absurd.’ The line got the loudest applause of the night from
the decidedly pro-Detmer crowd. Attorney Kristina Lyke got in the final jab of the night when she said, ‘I didn't
move here to run for this race. I am your neighbor. I built my business here and I'm dedicated to this district.’”

Response Efforts. “It is extremely alarming that the Governor ever thought it was permissible to hire not one, but
two, partisan Democrat firms to help with Michigan's coronavirus response efforts. Through this scandal, Elissa

To A Data Firm. “Yesterday, Governor Whitmer cancelled the $200,000 contract with a data firm with strong ties
to Democratic political campaigns. Whitmer hired the company circumventing the competitive bid process to
collect data related to the coronavirus. Elissa Slotkin recently boasted on her social media accounts that she using
the same firm to “transform” her campaign volunteers into “wellness checkers” for seniors. Slotkin has paid the
firm over $20,000 in less than two years. Michiganders deserve elected officials who avoid any appearance of
collecting sensitive healthcare data for political purposes. Livingston County's own Wes Nakagiri exposed this
partisan contract which is now a national story. Thank you Wes! Wes Nakagiri for County Commissioner.” [Paul

Abortion & Women’s Health Issues
Significant Findings
✓ Junge implied that he supported overturning Roe v. Wade and said that rights it protected were “made
up.”
✓ Junge said that he was Pro-Life “At All Times”
✓ Junge claimed that Virginia Governor Ralph Northam supported killing children.
✓ Junge did not support any funding for Planned Parenthood.
✓ Junge did not support Oakland County, MI funding Planned Parenthood, despite the fact that the funds
went toward Title X Activities, which do not include abortions.
Roe v. Wade
Junge Called Roe v. Wade “That Federal Court Decision,” Implied That It Should Be Overturned,
And The Right To Privacy “Made Up”
Junge Called Roe v. Wade “That Federal Court Decision,” Implied That It Should Be Overturned, And The
Right To Privacy “Made Up.” “And let me say one other thing, because of course one of our biggest obstacles is
that federal court decision, which makes the reelection of President Trump, so that he can continue to appoint
federal judges that will adhere to the Constitution instead of made up rights like we see in Roe v. Wade.” [Howell,
MI Debate, 2/20/20]
Junge Said That That Reelecting Trump And Keeping The Senate Was Key For Federal Court
Appointments, Implying They Were Essential To Overturning Roe v. Wade.” “And let me say one other thing,
because of course one of our biggest obstacles is that federal court decision, which makes the reelection of
President Trump, so that he can continue to appoint federal judges that will adhere to the Constitution instead of
made up rights like we see in Roe v. Wade. And one more, besides the desperate need to reelect President Trump,
the Senate has to confirm those judges. Let’s elect John James, so we have another vote to make sure we get those
judges confirmed.” [Howell, MI Debate, 2/20/20]
Abortion

Junge Said That He Was Pro-Life “At All Times.” “I am pro-life, I support life at all times.” [Howell, MI
Debate, 2/20/20]
Junge Falsely Claimed That Virginia Governor Ralph Northam Supported Killing Children
Junge Claimed That Virginia Governor Ralph Northam Supported Killing Children. “I said in my opening
statement that we can see what happens Democrats take control. We see in Virginia where’s there’s a governor who
says after a live birth he would have a discussion with the mother whether to end the life of that baby. The question
Paul Junge (MI-08) Research Book | 90
talks about not providing medical care to help a baby that has survived an attempted abortion. [Howell, MI Debate,
2/20/20]
These Claims Were False. “Trump was talking about comments Northam made in late January, when he was
asked during a filmed radio interview about an abortion bill before the Virginia House of Delegates. The
governor’s comments were confusing, and some took them, at the time, as an endorsement of infanticide. But
the governor has said that he was ‘absolutely not’ talking about infanticide — and in any case, the Virginia bill
would certainly not allow doctors to ‘execute’ a baby after it’s born.” [Vox, 2/12/19]
Planned Parenthood
Junge Categorically Stated That He Did Not Support Funding For Planned Parenthood
Junge Categorically Stated That He Did Not Support Funding For Planned Parenthood. “If I am a
Federal legislator, I will support life, I will not be funding Planned Parenthood.” [Howell, MI Debate,
2/20/20]
Junge Said That He Opposed The Oakland County, MI Commission From Funding Planned
Parenthood To Provide Reproductive Health Care Services
Junge Said That He Opposed The Oakland County, MI Commission From Funding Planned Parenthood.
“We can see what Democrats do when they take control even right here in the State of Michigan. The Oakland
County Commission just last election cycle, for the first time in a long time, by just one vote flipped to 11-10
control by the Democrats. What did they do? They took $500,000 of Oakland County taxpayer money and gave it
to Planned Parenthood. If I am a Federal legislator, I will support life, I will not be funding Planned Parenthood.”
[Howell, MI Debate, 2/20/20]
The Funding Was Provided Under Title X, Which Provided Reproductive Health Care Services, Not
Including Abortion, To Low Income Individuals. “The Oakland County Board of Commissioners has
approved $500,000 for Title X reproductive health care services in Oakland County through Planned
Parenthood. The board says it took the action as a result of new rules imposed by the Trump Administration.
Title X is a federal program that provides family planning and reproductive health care services to low-income
individuals, including preventative services, breast and cervical cancer screenings, treatment of STIs,
education, counseling and contraception.” [WXYZ Detroit, 12/18/19]

1994: Junge’s “Highly Inappropriate” Actions In A Case Resulted In A Mistrial And The Near Dismissal Of
Domestic Violence Charges Against A Defendant
Junge Was Assigned As A Prosecutor For A Case Against Someone Charged With Spousal Battery. “The
judge's ruling means that Mitchell Blair, 38, of Oxnard, must stand trial on a misdemeanor spousal battery charge.
The case is scheduled to return to court today for assignment to trial.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
Junge Barged Into A Meeting Between A Public Defender And The Defendant’s Wife, The Alleged Victim In
The Case. “Blair's case was in trial last month when Junge saw Blair's wife, the alleged victim in the case, enter a
conference room in the public defender's office, according to court records. Moments later, he and a district
attorney's investigator entered the room without knocking and gave the woman a subpoena, Brodie said.” [Los
Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
The Judge In The Case Called Junge’s Actions “Highly Inappropriate” And Declared A Mistrial. “Paul
Junge were ‘highly inappropriate,’ Judge Edward F. Brodie ruled that the defense was not harmed by the
prosecutor's conduct. […] The judge declared a mistrial when he learned what happened, and Assistant Dist.
Atty. Kevin J. McGee apologized to the public defender's office. [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]

Junge Was Removed From The Case. “Deputy Dist. Atty. Kevin G. De Noce, who said Junge has been
removed from the case, argued against dismissal of the charge. He said Junge's actions were improper, but
dismissal was too severe a sanction.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
The Defense Argued For Dismissal Of Charges, Jeopardizing The State’s Entire Case. “However, the public
defender's office argued in court that Junge's behavior was so inappropriate, it justified dismissal of the case.
Deputy Public Defender Randolph Tucker said the incident interrupted Blair's wife as she was about to recant her
earlier statements to police about being beaten by the defendant.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]
Junge Interrupted The Alleged Victim Preparing To Recant Her Statements To Police. “Deputy Public
Defender Randolph Tucker said the incident interrupted Blair's wife as she was about to recant her earlier

The Judge Ultimately Declined To Dismiss Charges Outright. “A prosecutor who barged into a defense
attorney's office to subpoena a witness did not behave so badly that criminal charges should be dismissed against
the defendant, a Municipal Court judge ruled Tuesday.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/23/94]

2013: Junge Supported An Agreement That Would Contract The California Highway Patrol To Provide
Law Enforcement For The City Of Oakland
Early 2013: The City Of Oakland Was Considering Paying The California Highway Patrol To Police The
City Of Oakland After An Initial Was Set To Expire. “The California Highway Patrol is willing to help police
some of Oakland’s most dangerous streets for another three months, but this time it wants to be paid for its services,
city officials said Tuesday. The CHP’s initial 90-day agreement to help Oakland’s undermanned police force
expires at the end of this week. City officials had hoped that the CHP would continue providing officers free of
charge, but those hopes were dashed last week when the City Council agreed to pay for similar help from the
Alameda County Sheriff’s Office. ‘They do want to be paid because the (the sheriff’s office) is going to be paid,”
OPD spokeswoman Johnna Watson said. CHP officials could not be reached for comment late Tuesday. Mayor
Paul Junge (MI-08) Research Book | 97
Jean Quan said she was hopeful that state grants could be used to help cover some of the patrol costs going forward
and that she would soon meet with the CHP about preserving the Oakland patrols. ‘This assistance came in a time
of need, and this need still exits,’ she said in a prepared statement. Highway patrolmen began policing high-crime
sections of Oakland in early November after city officials and a prominent minister asked Gov. Jerry Brown for
help to combat the city’s surging crime rate.” [Mercury News, 1/29/13]
May 2013: The Oakland City Council Voted To Pay Over $500,000 For The CHP To Continue Its Patrols Of
Oakland. “The short-staffed Oakland Police Department will continue to get help patrolling the streets from the
California Highway Patrol. Late Tuesday night, the Oakland City Council voted to pay more than $500,000 for the
CHP to continue its extra patrols in high crime areas. Not only will the extra patrols continue, but the presence of
the CHP will actually increase. 10 officers and two sergeants will be deployed four days a week instead of two.”

2011: Junge Expressed Concern About The “Negative Ramifications” On The Business Community Of
Occupy Wall Street Protests In Oakland. “Oakland employers braced on Tuesday for a planned general strike by
the Occupy Oakland movement, with some deciding to stay open, others opting to close, still others letting
employees work from home -- and some closing in sympathy with the aims of the protest. […] The Oakland
Chamber of Commerce raised alarms about the continued economic impact. ‘There are a number of negative
ramifications from these protests,’ said Paul Junge, director of public policy with the chamber.’ A number of local
businesses are seeing sales drop off dramatically.” [Contra Costa Times, 11/1/11]
Junge Claimed That The Protests Called Commercial Real Estate Deals In Oakland To Fall Through. “The
revived Occupy Oakland movement has called for a citywide general strike Wednesday that has garnered
nationwide support from activists and the philosophical backing of labor unions, while triggering growing
consternation that the city's strained economy could suffer further. […] Meanwhile, some merchants in the plaza
say business has plummeted. And Paul Junge, public policy director for the Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of
Commerce, said two commercial landlords had nearly inked deals fall through.” [Los Angeles Times, 11/2/11]

said he hears complaints from business owners who are facing 40 to 50 percent reductions in sales and an
increase in shoplifting. He added that the protest is also undermining the city's recent ‘renaissance’ and bout of
optimism, and current shop owners now say they would not sign leases with the city because of the protest.”
Oakland is not a city without its challenges Junge said, but this protest has brought the city ‘10 steps back.’”
[International Business Times News, 11/11/11]
Junge Said The Protests Added To The “Uphill Battle” For Oakland. “‘There are real business consequences to
this occupation, to this agitation, to the protest," said Paul Junge, the Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce
policy director. ‘Oakland is a great place, and there's so much positive to sell about it, but we are fighting an uphill
battle.’” [Los Angeles Times, 11/5/11]
Junge Blamed Some Of The Protesters Actions On Oakland Councilwoman Jean Quan, And Said That She
Shouldn’t Let “Kids” Override “Law And Order.” “A year ago, lifelong progressive activist and Oakland
Councilwoman Jean Quan linked arms with protesters and faced off against a phalanx of officers in riot gear near
this city's graceful civic center. On Thursday there she was as mayor, police chief by her side, trying to explain her
response to Occupy Oakland. Quan had ordered police last week to dismantle the tent city. Then she let the
protesters rebuild. A general strike Wednesday started out peacefully but turned violent. Amid the unrest, residents
have launched a mayoral recall effort. Business owners are demanding the encampment be shut down for good.
Protesters vow to stay. […] ‘There are real business consequences to this occupation, to this agitation, to the
protest,’ said Paul Junge, the Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce policy director. ‘Oakland is a great
place, and there's so much positive to sell about it, but we are fighting an uphill battle. ‘With parenting, you don't
let the kids set the rules and the agenda,’ he said of Quan's approach. ‘Too much of the language is, 'We're asking
them to do this.' Hey, you have to establish law and order.’” [Los Angeles Times, 11/5/11]
Junge Claimed That Oakland Businesses Saw A 40%-60% Decline In Sales As A Results Of Occupy
Protests. “The effects of Occupy Oakland have rippled beyond the city plaza, said Paul Junge, public policy
director of the Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce. ‘We are seeing serious losses of business,’ Junge
Paul Junge (MI-08) Research Book | 103
said. ‘People have lost 40 percent, 50 percent, 60 percent of their sales’ Occupy Oakland representatives responded
that small merchants are among those the movement aims to help.” [San Jose Mercury News, 11/8/11]
Junge Also Claimed Similar Figures In A Letter To Mayor Quan. “Owners of some small Oakland, Calif.,
businesses are urging Occupy protesters to pack up and go home, saying the encampments are killing business.
"The impact of the urban encampment has been very negative," said Paul Junge, public policy director for the
Oakland Chamber of Commerce. ‘We are aware of dozens of small businesses in and around Frank Ogawa
Plaza where the tents are, reporting 40 percent to 50 percent losses in the past three or four weeks, including
clothing stores, coffee shops, and conference spaces.’ Junge said people are avoiding demonstrators in Oakland,
where protesters shut down the port and clashed with police downtown, resulting in more than 100 arrests.
Store windows were broken and buildings were spray-painted with graffiti. ‘They don't like walking around
down there, it makes them nervous, they are taking their business elsewhere,’ he said in a three-page letter to
Mayor Jean Quan, The Christian Science Monitor reported.” [UPI, 11/10/11]
Junge Said That Local Politicians’ Sympathy For The Occupy Protests Caused The City To Become “A
Magnet For Lots Of Folks Who Aren’t From Oakland In Creating Problems For Lots Of Regular Folks.”
“PAUL JUNGE: In their anxiousness to show some sympathy to the cause and not be the bad guys, it ends up being
a magnet for lots of folks who aren't from Oakland in creating problems for lots of regular folks just trying to go
about their day to day business who really weren't part of the problem in the first place.” [NPR, All Things
Considered, 11/9/11]
Junge Called The Impact Of A Protester Encampment “Very Negative.” “‘The impact of the urban
encampment has been very negative," says Paul Junge, public policy director for the Oakland Metropolitan
Chamber of Commerce. Three businesses with commitments to new leases in the downtown area, which would
have brought in some 350 jobs, backed out of their agreements in the past three weeks, he says. ‘We are aware of
dozens of small businesses in and around Frank Ogawa Plaza where the tents are, reporting 40 to 50 percent losses
in the past three or four weeks,’ including clothing stores, coffee shops, and conference spaces, Mr. Junge says.
‘People don't like walking around down there, it makes them nervous ... they are taking their business elsewhere.’”

2011: Junge Supported The City Of Oakland’s Action To Clear The Occupy Protestor Encampment
2011: Junge Supported The City Of Oakland’s Action To Clear The Occupy Protestor Encampment.
“Oakland police, acting early Monday morning, have now cleared the Occupy Oakland encampment for a second
time. But it is still not clear whether the municipality and protesters are drawing up hard battle lines or if these local
skirmishes have implications for the overall Occupy movement. What is clear is that in Oakland, city and business
leaders are on one side, with protesters and a variety of supporters, such as unions, on the other. According to a city
statement Monday morning, ‘lodging will be strictly prohibited’ in the Frank Ogawa Plaza near City Hall, where
protesters have been ensconced since Oct. 10. And, says Paul Junge, director of public policy for the Oakland
Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce, ‘we are pleased with the action the city took.’” [Christian Science Monitor,
11/14/11]
Junge Backed A City Council Resolution To Police The Port Of Oakland Against Protestors.
“Councilmember Ignacio De La Fuente said Wednesday he will reintroduce a resolution aimed at averting another
protester-driven port shutdown, one day after his council colleagues chose not to vote on it. ‘Like I said last night,
we have to be responsible for our actions,’ he said. ‘The mayor and the City Council have to be on record on this.’”
[…] Port of Oakland Executive Director Omar Benjamin and the Chamber of Commerce's Paul Junge backed the
resolution, warning that repeated protests could hurt the port's ability to measure up with competitors along the
West Coast. ‘You of course are the legitimate authority for the people of Oakland,’ Junge told the council. ‘It is
absolutely appropriate that you should direct your police chief and city administrator to uphold the laws of
Oakland.’” [San Jose Mercury News, 12/21/11]

2011: Junge Supported An Injunction Against An Oakland Gang, Despite Evidence That It Did Not Reduce
Violent Crime
2011: Junge Supported An Injunction Against An Oakland Gang, Despite Evidence That It Did Not Reduce
Violent Crime. “The North Oakland gang injunction has not reduced violent crime, according to a report by the
Oakland Police Department that shows homicides, assaults and other serious crimes have risen in the safety zone
area defined by the injunction, and arrests for weapons and drugs are way down. […] Before the gang injunction
went into effect there were 123 violent crimes, including two homicides, between April 4, 2009, and June 1, 2010.
After the injunction was implemented, there were 176 violent crimes, including three homicides, between June 2,
2010, and Oct. 6, 2011. Weapons arrests dropped 58 percent, and drug arrests fell 71 percent. […] But Paul Junge,
public policy director for the Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce, said the business community supports
the injunction, despite the statistics that show that violent crime has not decreased. ‘It's a reasonable conclusion that
it seems to be effective if only because 15 gang members did not commit crimes in the safety zone,’ he said.” [San
Jose Mercury News, 11/8/11]
2012: Junge Worked With The Group Stand For Oakland, Which Was Formed To Express Opposition To
The Occupy Oakland Protestors
Junge Was A Part Of Stand For Oakland, Who Led A Demonstration To The Oakland Courthouse
Opposing The Occupy Protests. “Occupy Oakland protesters got a taste of their own medicine Monday.
Occupiers marched from a courthouse to Frank H. Ogawa Plaza for a noon rally only to find about 40 people
protesting them. The group, calling itself Stand for Oakland, was organized by several neighborhood leaders to
show public opposition to Occupy Oakland's recent costly demonstrations and its focus on Oakland police, rather
than the travails of the poor and middle class. ‘I think this will make them see that the citizens are concerned and
that the citizens are tired of the actions that they are taking,’ said Angela Haller, a Neighborhood Watch leader who
helped organize the rally. Among those participating in Stand for Oakland was Councilwoman Desley Brooks,
several neighborhood leaders, developer Phil Tagami and Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce official
Paul Junge.” [Contra Costa Times, 2/6/12]
The Group Was Outnumbered By Occupy Oakland Protestors. “They were outnumbered in the plaza by
about 150 Occupy supporters, who had scheduled their own rally to decry police violence. Members of the
dueling rallies intermingled, but the Occupiers' only skirmish was with police.” [Contra Costa Times, 2/6/12]
Stand For Oakland Was Ridiculed By Occupy Oakland For The Presence Of Junge, As A Representative
Of The Chamber Of Commerce, In Their Demonstration. “Peg and other citizens, of all political stripes,
have formed an anti-Occupy group called Stand for Oakland. At the recent anti-repression rally, they staged a
silent counter-protest, standing on the steps of City Hall, staring down the shouting Occupiers right in front of
them. Occupiers gleefully pointed me to one official from the Oakland Chamber of Commerce, Paul Junge, in
the crowd, as good reason to dismiss the counter-protesters as corporatists and agents of the 1 percent.”

Steele Claimed That Earlier Projections Regarding COVID-19 Were “Completely Wrong”
Steele Claimed That Earlier Projections Regarding COVID-19 Were “Completely Wrong.” “JUNGE: ‘We’re
seeing record unemployment and that’s because orders from the government saying you must shut down economic
activity and those impacts are real. […] You wrote an editorial that was published, I think it was in The Detroit
News not much more than a week ago with some really useful information about what we’ve learned. Maybe it
wasn’t unreasonable back in March or even earlier to say gosh what could happen and take action but we’ve
learned a lot since then, haven’t we?’ […] STEELE: ‘What we see from the beginning is that the initial projections
Paul Junge (MI-08) Research Book | 111
of everything having to do with both worldwide and having to do with various countries and for various things,
mortality, infections, disabilities and so forth, we found that the original theories and projections, hypotheses were
completely wrong and now we have a lot of data to show that’s the case” [COVID Q&A Happy Hour With Dr.
Rob Steele, 4:12, 5/14/20]
Earlier Projections Were Partially Inaccurate Due To The Strong Effects Of Social Distancing And
Preventative Measures Put In Place. “Banning gatherings, having people stay at home, closing schools, and other
measures to reduce the spread of Covid-19 are working so well that an influential model of the pandemic’s course
now projects that the number of U.S deaths from the new coronavirus by early August will be 60,415 rather than
the minimum of 100,000 that it forecast last month. […]The earlier projection of Covid-19 deaths — 100,000 —
from modelers at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington assumed there
would be broad adoption of “social distancing,” which is also how China broke the back of the epidemic that began
in Wuhan. But the effect of that social distancing has been greater than the IHME team expected.” [STAT News,

Season. “JUNGE: ‘Speaking of tests, you mentioned just a moment ago that out in LA whether it was the mayor or
somebody else said that we can’t open until we have a vaccine and you’ve already addressed why that’s just
nonsensical. People talk about the important role testing will play opening back up, some people have suggested
until we can test everybody all the time. What’re your thoughts about the role testing will play in opening back up
economic and all kinds of activity? STEELE: ‘Well the most important role for testing is in protecting the people
who’re higher risk and the health care workers who are in contact with the higher risk people. Testing is no more
important for opening up the economy than it’d be in a bad flu season.’ JUNGE: ‘Mhm-hm.’” [COVID Q&A

According To Robert Redfield, The Trump-Appointed Director Of The CDC, Widespread Tracing Is

Senate Health Committee, 5/23/20]
Formed CDC Director Tom Frieden Stated That Widespread Contact Tracing And Testing Is Necessary
For Reopening. ““In order to go back out, we need to box the virus in. After flattening the curve, the next step
is to box the virus in by implementing four essential actions – test, isolate, contact trace, and quarantine. All are
crucial; if any one is weak, the virus can escape and spread explosively again.” [Tom Frieden, House
Appropriations Committee, 5/6/20]

attached to it and turning it into the primary diagnosis so they can get a higher payment. That’s unequivocally
true.’” [COVID Q&A Happy Hour With Dr. Rob Steele, 35:44, 5/14/20]
Steele Also Claimed That Overall Deaths In The U.S. Were Lower Than Average. “To see that it’s really
different you would have to say that the total death rate in the United States should be quite in excess over previous
years, and it’s in the range, it’s less than the average of the last few years actually. It’s in the range.” [COVID Q&A

Dr. Anthony Fauci Of NIH Has Stated That COVID-19 Deaths Are Undercounted, Not Inflated. “A month
ago, the government’s top infectious disease expert, Anthony S. Fauci, appeared on the ‘Today’ show to discuss the
ongoing coronavirus pandemic. Asked whether experts were overstating the number of deaths from covid-19, the
disease caused by the virus, Fauci said that was unlikely. He was then asked whether the deaths were being
undercounted. ‘I think there’s more of a chance of missing some that are really coronavirus deaths that are not
being counted,’ he said, “but I don’t think that number is significant enough to really substantially modify the
trends that we’re seeing at all.’ […] A version of the same question was posed to Fauci during his testimony before
the Senate on Tuesday. ‘The official statistic, Dr. Fauci, is that 80,000 Americans have died from the pandemic,’
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) said, referring to the current death toll. ‘There are some epidemiologists who suggest
the number may be 50 percent higher than that. What do you think?’ ‘I’m not sure, Senator Sanders, if it’s going to
be 50 percent higher,’ Fauci replied. ‘But most of us feel that the number of deaths are likely higher than that
number.’” [Washington Post, 5/12/20]

2013: Junge Was Somewhat Critical Of A Proposed Municipal Worker Strike, Saying “Times Have Been

but this is only a glimpse of the chaos to come, say union leaders representing tens of thousands of municipal and
transit workers in Northern California. After five years of pay cuts, furloughs and reductions in vacation, sick time
and pensions, union members who work for cities, counties and special districts say they're fed up and prepared to
walk off their jobs, even at the risk of losing pay or getting fired, labor officials said. […] ‘Nobody's unsympathetic
to people's desire to get pay increases. We all want that,’ said Paul Junge, who directs public policy for the Oakland
Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce. ‘But I think it would be a mistake to say that only government workers have
had hard times or made sacrifices over the past few years,’ he added. ‘Thousands of businesses have failed,
thousands more have seen their profits and revenues decline, thousands of employees have lost their jobs in the
private sector, or seen their hours cut back. Times have been difficult for more than government workers.’ The
public should remember that Local 1021 members are part of the Bay Area, as well. They're neighbors, friends,
relatives - all of whom pay taxes and contribute to their communities in myriad ways, he said. By paying them
decent salaries, the entire community benefits, he said.” [San Francisco Chronicle, 6/30/13]

2012: Junge Supported BART’s Purchase Of Over A Billion Dollars In Rail Cars From Bombardier, A
Canadian Corporation
2012: Junge Supported BART’s Purchase Of Over A Billion Dollars In Rail Cars From Bombardier, A
Canadian Corporation, Over Union Objections. “BART's board of directors voted unanimously Thursday to buy
410 new train cars for $896.3 million from a Canadian firm, over objections that not enough of the contract will be
fulfilled by U.S. workers and suppliers. This marks the first time in 40 years that the Bay Area Rapid Transit
district is buying vehicles with entirely new technology, without needing them to be compatible with an older fleet.
The board is expected to buy more cars from Canada-based Bombardier later on, for a total of 775 cars at a total
cost of $1.54 billion. […] James Beno, directing business representative for an Oakland-based International
Association of Machinists union lodge, urged the board to "take a few months to let this go back out to your best
bidders." Representatives from the BlueGreen Alliance and the Courage Campaign said they've gathered thousands
of petition signatures from BART riders and taxpayers urging the same. But many speakers from the business
community urged the board to honor its own bid process, accept Bombardier's bid and move ahead without further
delay. ‘Take the best product at the lowest price, that your process has determined will serve the riders of the Bay
Area,’ said Paul Junge, the Oakland Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce's public policy director.” [Oakland
