  • Dear Colleague
    November 13, 2018 Dear Colleague: We write today to share our support for Steny Hoyer to serve as Majority Leader in the 116th Congress. In the majority, we will have considerable opportunity to effect change and great responsibility to get things done on behalf of our constituents. We will need a steady, experienced leader over the next two years, who also works to empower our Members and prepare them for future leadership opportunities. We will need someone who will hold President Trump, his Administration, and Congressional Republicans accountable – while still being able to work effectively in a divided government to get legislation passed. It is for these reasons that we believe that Steny is the person we need as Majority Leader. Steny was out on the trail tirelessly campaigning this cycle, doing the hard work necessary to take back the House. He traveled to districts in every part of the country, campaigning with progressive and moderate Democratic candidates alike. He’s been there for us: traveling for us, raising money for us, and he’s often one of the first people to reach out and offer his support. He has been a mentor to many of us. We believe it is critical for our leaders to promote Members across our Caucus and give them real opportunities to lead. Steny has done this, and will continue to do so. Half of his Whip team is composed of Members who have served for three terms or less. He was a strong supporter of efforts in 2016 to expand the leadership team, and he is committed to making changes that empower Members further, including by strengthening the Committee process.

The November 2012 General Election in California was the first statewide election to feel the full effect of two significant new electoral policies. The first of these, the “Top Two Candidates Open Primary Act,” was approved by voters in 2010 (Proposition 14). Under the new system, all legislative, congressional and constitutional office candidates now appear on the same primary ballot, regardless of party affiliation. The two candidates receiving the most votes in the Primary advance to the General Election, regardless of party affiliation. The June 2012 primary was the first time voters utilized the new system, and the result was numerous intra-party competitions in the November election as described below. The other significant new factor in this election was the newly drawn political districts. The boundaries of legislative and congressional seats were redrawn last year as part of the decennial redistricting process, whereby voting districts are reconfigured based on updated U.S. Census population data. Until 2011, these maps have been redrawn by the majority party in the Legislature, with an emphasis on party registration.

  • May 4, 2020 the Honorable Nancy Pelosi the Honorable Kevin
    May 4, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives H-232, U.S. Capitol H-204, U.S. Capitol Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader McCarthy, As you consider additional stimulus measures to combat the economic effects of COVID-19, we respectfully request that you provide support to our nation’s higher education institutions. While colleges and universities have effectively dealt with a rapid transition to remote instruction, this transition has led to the loss of billions of dollars in revenue through the suspension of in-person classes, early termination of student housing and dining contracts, interruption of on-campus services and countless other losses. These institutions serve as foundations for their community, and their full recovery must be a top priority for Congress. In California, for example, the University of California includes more than 285,000 students, 180,000 faculty and staff, and more than 2 million living alumni from 10 campuses across the state. The California State University System is the largest system of four-year higher education in the country, with 23 campuses, 53,000 faculty and staff and 482,000 students. The California Community Colleges is the largest higher education system in the nation, with 115 colleges serving over 2.1 million students. The more than $14 billion dollars provided to the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF) that was authorized under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was an important initial step toward meeting the urgent needs of students and the colleges and universities that serve them, but more support is desperately needed.
