add CDFE on software takeover bid
CDFE also planned to take advantage of the focus on terrorism in the aftermath of the September 11 terrorist. "Create an outreach program increasing public awareness of eco-terrorism and how the public can help law enforcement stop anti-business crime," it stated as an objective for 2002.
While CDFE have made a name for themselves championing anti-environmentalism, their advocacy efforts occasionally take a bizarre twist. In July 2003 Arnold issue a media release calling on the U.S. Justice Department to prevent a takeover bid of computer software company PeopleSoft by Oracle.
