5 Sharon Quirk-Silva’s Campaign Accused Kim Of Illegally Claiming A Homeowner’s Exemption And Paying Money Owed Only After The Issue Was Raised. “The campaign of Assembly District candidate Sharon Quirk- Silva called on her opponent, Young Kim, to explain her actions after Kim was caught red-handed on property taxes she owed for a homeowner’s exemption she illegally claimed. The Kim campaign issued a statement earlier denying that Kim had ‘illegally claimed a homeowners’ credit,’ calling the accusation ‘false’ and saying that ‘her property taxes are paid in full.’ Her campaign left out an important detail: Young Kim admitted owing yesterday when she finally paid up on her taxes —but only after the Quirk-Silva campaign pointed out her being a tax deadbeat to voters. Then, instead of simply paying up and admitting to the back taxes, issued false denials.” [Sharon Quirk-Silva for Assembly 2016, press release, 9/30/16]

NOTE: According to a press release published by Sharon Quirk-Silva, Kim denied owing property taxes for claiming a homeowner exemption at an address at which she did not reside but paid back the amount claimed. Further research needed to confirm this payment.

For Trump, it likely is about private dealings that paint him in a horrible light. For Kim, who has been in government for the past five tax years, this should be easy—what’s to hide if you work as a congressional aide, do campaign work on the side, or collect an Assembly paycheck?’” [Orange County Weekly, 8/1/16]

9 Kim’s Exaggerated Business “Experience”

Summary

 During her 2014 bid for California Assembly, Kim requested she be listed as a small businesswoman on the ballot, a request that was met by a complaint from her opponent, Sharon Quirk-Silva. Quirk-Silva alleged that designating Kim as a small businesswoman was “inaccurate and misleading.” Quirk-Silva further argued that Kim’s financial disclosures, which she filed as an Assembly candidate, showed no income from Kim’s ‘small business,’ Y.K. Connections.

 Kim did not disclose any earned income from Y.K. Connections between 2014 and 2017, years in which she annually filed personal financial disclosures with the State of California (2014-2016) and the federal government (2017).

 On her California Statement of Economic Interests, Kim reported that Y.K. Connections grossed an annual income of between $1,001 and $10,000 but did not disclose an exact number. Kim also listed a relatively small Fair Market Value for Y.K. Connections, listing it between $2,000 and $10,000. Kim did not report any earned income from the business on those same forms. For 2017, Kim did not report an earned income from Y.K. Connections nor did she list her ownership of the company. In fact, she did not mention Y.K. Connections on her 2017 Personal Financial Disclosures.

 Despite this lack of income, Kim reportedly loaned herself between $10,001 and $100,000 from her own Fictitious Business Name, essentially loaning money to herself.

2018: Kim Listed Herself As A “Small Business Owner” And A “Businesswoman” On Her Campaign Website. “Kim’s career began as a small business owner and financial analyst. […] Young Kim is a community leader, businesswoman and public servant, all while being a mother to four children and wife to her husband Charles.” [Young Kim for Congress, About Young Kim, accessed 3/7/18]

In 2014, Kim Insisted She Be Labeled As A “Small Businesswoman”

March 2014: Kim Requested She Be Listed On The Ballot As A Small Businesswoman, Despite Having Spent The Previous 20 Years As An Aide To Rep. Ed Royce

March 2014: Kim Requested That She Be Listed On The Ballot As A Small Businesswoman, Though She Had Spent 20 Years As An Aid To Royce. “Kim's election filings request that she be listed on the ballot as a ‘small-business woman.’ […] Republican Young Kim, who spent 20 years as an aide to Rep. Ed Royce, R- Fullerton, before retiring in September, is running against Quirk-Silva, D-Fullerton, in what is expected to be one of the state's tightest Assembly races.” [Orange County Register, 3/10/14]

Kim’s Opponent Filed A Complaint Alleging Kim’s Designation As A Businesswoman Was “Inaccurate And Misleading”

Kim’s Opponent, Assemblywoman Sharon Quirk-Silva, Filed A Complaint Alleging Kim’s Designation As A Businesswoman Was “Inaccurate And Misleading.” “Lawyers for Assemblywoman Sharon Quirk-Silva's re- election campaign filed a complaint Friday alleging that her opponent's ballot designation is ‘inaccurate and

10 misleading’ and asking that it not appear on the ballot. Republican Young Kim, who spent 20 years as an aide to Rep. Ed Royce, R-Fullerton, before retiring in September, is running against Quirk-Silva, D-Fullerton, in what is expected to be one of the state's tightest Assembly races. [Orange County Register, 3/10/14]

Quirk-Silva’s Attorneys Claimed That Kim’s Financial Disclosures Showed No Income From Her Work At Y.K. Connections. “Quirk-Silva's lawyers argue that Kim's financial disclosures filed last week show no income from her business and that it has no website. Kim political consultant Dave Gilliard countered that she legally established the business last year and started making money from it only this year.” [Orange County Register, 3/10/14]

NOTE: The resolution of Quirk-Silva’s complaint was unclear. Further research needed.

2016: Kim Received Pressure From Her Opponent, Sharon Quirk-Silva, To Release Her Tax Returns. “‘Yesterday marked 100 days since Sharon released five years of her taxes and called on Kim to do the same, under the idea that confidence in government depends on some level of confidence in our leaders,’ writes Matt Reilly, Quirk-Silva’s campaign spokesman, in an email last week. ‘Like Trump, she has repeatedly refused. For Trump, it likely is about private dealings that paint him in a horrible light. For Kim, who has been in government for the past five tax years, this should be easy—what’s to hide if you work as a congressional aide, do campaign work on the side, or collect an Assembly paycheck?’” [Orange County Weekly, 8/1/16]

The bill became law and became law. [AB 1671, passed the Assembly, 5/31/16; Senate amendments concurred in, 8/31/16; became law, 9/30/16]

Los Angeles Times: Videos Involving Planned Parenthood Employees Discussing Abortion Procedures Inspired AB 1671. “Distributing secret recordings involving healthcare conversations will become a crime in California in 2017, under a new law inspired by the high-profile case involving videos of Planned Parenthood employees discussing abortion procedures. […] Planned Parenthood, a sponsor of AB 1671, argued that the new law is necessary in the wake of the controversial videos taped by David Daleiden and other anti-abortion activists that purport to show Planned Parenthood employees illegally trafficking in fetal tissue.” [Los Angeles Times, 9/30/16]

Planned Parenthood Sponsored AB 1671. “Planned Parenthood, a sponsor of AB 1671, argued that the new law is necessary in the wake of the controversial videos taped by David Daleiden and other anti-abortion activists that purport to show Planned Parenthood employees illegally trafficking in fetal tissue.” [Los Angeles Times, 9/30/16]

Abortion & Family Planning

Kim Voted Against Requiring Licensed Covered Facilities To Provide Information About Affordable Family Planning, Abortion Services, And Prenatal Care To Clients

Kim Voted Against Requiring Licensed Covered Facilities To Provide Information About Affordable Family Planning, Programs, Abortion Services, And Prenatal Care To Clients. In May 2015, Kim voted against: “Enact[ing] the Reproductive FACT (Freedom, Accountability, Comprehensive Care, and Transparency) Act, which would require a licensed covered facility, as defined, to disseminate a notice to all clients, as specified, stating, among other things, that California has public programs that provide immediate free or low-cost access to comprehensive family planning services, prenatal care, and abortion, for eligible women. The bill would also require an unlicensed covered facility, as defined, to disseminate a notice to all clients, as specified, stating, among other things, that the facility is not licensed as a medical facility by the State of California.” The bill passed the Assembly 49 to 26, with 5 not voting, and became law. [AB 775, passed the Assembly, 5/26/15; became law, 10/9/15]

Sacramento Bee: NARAL Pro-Choice America, Planned Parenthood, And Black Women For Wellness Sponsored AB 775. “Los Angeles-based advocacy group Black Women for Wellness joined Harris and NARAL Pro-Choice California as sponsors of the bill, which was authored by Assemblyman David Chiu, D- San Francisco, and Assemblywoman Autumn Burke, D-Los Angeles.” [Sacramento Bee, 10/11/15]

Sacramento Bee: AB 775 Would Require That “Crisis Pregnancy Centers” Run By Anti-Abortion Organizations To Inform Clients Of California Public Programs That Offer Abortions. “The law would cover ‘crisis pregnancy centers’ run by anti-abortion organizations. […] The just-enacted legislation, however, requires that they inform clients of California public programs that do offer abortions, and that they supply their clients with a telephone number for the appropriate county social services office so the clients can find out if they qualify for those programs that include abortion services. Facilities that fail to obey the new law are subject to a $500 civil penalty for a first offense and a $1,000 penalty for each subsequent offense.” [Sacramento Bee, 10/11/15]

The bill would require a primary care clinic, except as specified, to send with each patient at the time of transfer, or in the case of an emergency, as promptly as possible, copies of all medical records related to the patient’s transfer, and would require the medical records to include, among other things, current medical findings and a brief summary of the course of treatment provided prior to the patient’s transfer. The bill would require the department to repeal related regulations.” The bill passed the Assembly 51 to 28, with one vote not recorded, and became public law. [AB 1177, passed the Assembly, 5/11/15; became law, 10/9/15]

The bill would require that these reasonable accommodations include, but are not limited to, access to a private and secure room, other than a restroom, to express breast milk or breast-feed an infant child, permission to bring onto a school campus any equipment used to express breast milk, access to a power source for that equipment, and access to a place to safely store expressed breast milk.

[AB 302, Assembly concurred with Senate amendments, 9/3/15; became law, 10/9/15]

The bill would authorize the department to require approval and certification of the program. The bill would permit the department to require an employer with fewer than 100 employees in state or a contract of less than 30 days to submit a nondiscrimination report. The bill would require the department to define an employee for these purposes. The bill would require the nondiscrimination program to include policies and procedures designed to ensure equal employment opportunities for all applicants and employees, an analysis of employment selection procedures, and a workforce analysis, as specified.” The Assembly concurred with Senate amendments 54 to 25, with one not voting, but the Governor vetoed.
