At yesterday's press conference, Democratic nominee for governor Bill White accused Perry of breaking his promise to refuse a pay raise passed by the Legislature. Another reporter told Bill White that Perry actually promised to donate the increase to charity. We called the Perry campaign yesterday to ask for clarification. Campaign press secretary Alejandro Garcia told LSR that Perry, in fact, donated the raise to three charities for 2007-08. The three charities are the Texas Association Against Sexual Assault, the March of Dimes, and the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. Perry has requested a six-month extension and has not yet filed his 2009 tax return. Therefore, we have no information to report on 2009.

Scroll down to the 10th page. Perry is giving his money to a charity that turns around and gives it to his wife.
Stat classy Rick Perry.
