  • 2013 Legislative Scorecard
    EQUALITY CALIFORNIA 2013LEGISLATIVESCORECARD 2013LEGISLATIVESCORECARD 15 Years Building a State of Equality Page 1 www.eqca.org EQUALITY CALIFORNIA Year in Review 2013LEGISLATIVESCORECARD 15 Years Building a State of Equality A message from Executive Director John O’Connor Dear Friends, 2013 has been a momentous year for equality. The freedom to marry returned to the Golden State and we triumphed over the so-called Defense of Marriage Act with the Supreme Court’s ruling this summer. While we celebrate these historic victories for our community, we also have an opportunity to let them serve as an inspiration for our continued work toward full and lasting equality. Let’s be mindful of an epidemic of bullying and suicide, transgender inequality, homeless LGBT youth, disparities throughout the health care arena, the need for comprehensive immigration reform and the challenges our seniors face. Our mission does not start and end with marriage, but it is a mile- stone of the greatest magnitude! The breadth of work that remains for full equality and nothing less is underscored in EQCA’s 2013 legislative package. We are proud to celebrate several firsts in the legislature: the first bill in the nation to guarantee transgender students the same opportunities for success as their peers; the first pro-LGBT bill to achieve a two-thirds majority in any Californian legislative session; and the first year we received this level of Republican support for pro-equality legislation ever. “While we celebrate these historic victories for our community, we also have an oppor- tunity to let them serve as an inspiration for our continued work toward full and lasting equality.” With four EQCA-sponsored bills signed into law this year, along Next year is an election year, and EQCA is already making plans with two resolutions and four other bills signed by the Governor to both expand our pro-equality majority and to keep California that we supported, we brought EQCA’s total number of spon- on the vanguard of LGBT equality.

  • Executive Board of the Harvey Milk LGBT Democratic Club, on Behalf of the Board of Directors of Equality California, I Want to T
    September 9,2076 Dear Assemblymember Ammiano, Supervisor Campos, Supervisor Dufty, and members of the Executive Board of the Harvey Milk LGBT Democratic Club, On behalf of the Board of Directors of Equality California, I want to thank you for taking the time to share your views with us regarding the race for Senate District I I (SD 1l). Although only some of the members of our Board live in the San Francisco Bay Area, all of us are acutely aware of the polarized nature of this election and I send you this reply with the utmost respect and with an acknowledgement of our deeply shared commitment to advancing equality and social justice for the LGBT community. Notwithstanding any assertions to the contrary, Equality California's endorsement of Supervisor Scott Wiener for SD 1l and our decision to undertake independent expenditures (IE) in support of his campaign were made with the full knowledge of, and in strict accordance with the guidelines and procedures established by, our Political Action Committee (PAC) and Board of Directors. Like all of our endorsement and expenditure decisions, our support of Supervisor Wiener was based on a thorough and independent evaluation of the race conducted by our PAC, which included careful consideration ofboth candidates' questionnaires, past records on issues of importance to the LGBT community, interviews conducted by the PAC, and the impact of the race on Equality California's civil rights and social justice priorities. The PAC concluded that Supervisor Wiener presented a more substantial record of commitment to the needs of the LGBT community, a deeper understanding of the myriad policy priorities in the area of LGBT social justice and civil rights, and a more detailed and specific public policy and legislative agenda aimed at improving the lives of LGBT people and people living with HIV.

  • Potrero View
    CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO LONDON N. BREED, MAYOR OFFICE OF SMALL BUSINESS REGINA DICK-ENDRIZZI, DIRECTOR Legacy Business Registry Staff Report HEARING DATE JANUARY 13, 2020 THE POTRERO VIEW Application No.: LBR-2019-20-007 Business Name: The Potrero View Business Address: 1459 18th St., #214 District: District 10 Applicant: Bettina Cohen, Marketing Manager Nomination Date: July 15, 2019 Nominated By: Supervisor Shamann Walton Staff Contact: Richard Kurylo [email protected] BUSINESS DESCRIPTION The Potrero View (the “View”) is San Francisco's oldest continuously published community newspaper, beginning in 1970. Dubbing themselves the “Potrero Hill Mob,” Bill and Jodie Dawson, Lenny Anderson, Micky Ostler and Rose Marie Sicoli launched The Potrero View out of the Dawson’s 284 Connecticut Street home. Aspiring to emerge into a newspaper that could influence municipal policy decisions, they received guidance from Eileen Maloney, their first editor who had journalism experience at Long Island’s Newsday and San Francisco's Progress. Potrero Hill resident Ruth Passen started contributing to the View in January 1971. That spring, Passen assumed editorial duties from Maloney, and in 1972, Passen succeeded the Dawsons as publisher of The Potrero View. She retired and turned the newspaper over to Steven Moss in 2006. The Potrero View began publishing its issues from offices in the basement of the Potrero Hill Neighborhood House in June 1972, not long after community advocate Enola Maxwell was elected director of the nonprofit. "The Nabe," as 953 De Haro is affectionately called by locals, is a Potrero Hill landmark, dating back to 1922, and has continuously housed churches or nonprofits that have a mission to serve community members in need, with an emphasis on youth and education.
