  • Women and Equality
    WOMEN AND EQUALITY A California Review of Women’s Equity Issues in Civil Rights, Education and the Workplace California Senate Office of Research February 1999 Dedicated to Senator Rose Ann Vuich Rose Ann Vuich was elected California’s first woman state senator in 1976 and served four terms through 1992. Although a Democrat by registration, she built a reputation as a political independent who shunned deal-making. Throughout her legislative career, Senator Vuich represented her San Joaquin Valley district first and foremost and relied on her own knowledge and judgment to do it. She was reared on a farm in Tulare County, where she has spent most of her life. With a degree in accounting from the Central California Commercial College in Fresno, she worked as an accountant, tax consultant, estate planner and office manager before her election. After becoming a senator she continued, with her brother, to manage the family farm in Dinuba. The California State Senate began to change after Senator Vuich joined its ranks, followed over the years by other women. She kept a small porcelain bell on her Senate floor desk, and would gently but insistently shake it whenever a colleague addressed the “gentlemen of the Senate.” The Senate chamber originally had no women’s restroom. But that oversight permitted Senator Vuich, during a Capitol restoration in the late 1970s, to design a comfortable “Rose Room” where she and women members into the future could retreat from the Senate floor. A daughter of Yugoslav immigrants, Senator Vuich achieved many “firsts,” from serving as the first woman president of the Dinuba Chamber of Commerce to becoming the first woman to preside over a Senate floor session in 1986.

HAS PAGA MET ITS FINAL MATCH? CONTINUED EXPANSION OF CALIFORNIA’S PRIVATE ATTORNEYS GENERAL ACT LEADS TO TRADE GROUP’S CONSTITUTIONAL CHALLENGE Ivan Muñoz* In 2003, California enacted the Private Attorneys General Act (“PAGA”) in response to its inability to enforce its labor code amid rapid expansion of its workforce. What was traditionally a responsibil- ity of the Attorney General, private plaintiffs could now sue their em- ployers for alleged violations of the labor code. The law was received with much controversy, and to this day, there are growing concerns that it has become an extortive mechanism for plaintiffs at the expense of the business community. This Note traces the historical development of the law by investi- gating its expansion in both the legislature and judiciary.

  • State Issues
    Week of January 14, 2019 State Issues Legislative Analyst This week, the Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) released its overview of Governor Newsom’s budget proposal for FY Report on State 2019-20 that was presented last week, and saw a new leader selected to lead this non-partisan organization. The Budget Legislature appointed a new state Legislative Analyst to fill the role Mac Taylor has held for 10 years. They named Gabriel Petek to the post, who most recently worked for Standard and Poor’s Global Ratings San Francisco Office where he is currently the state’s primary credit analyst. He takes the reins on February 4. In addition to getting a new chief, the LAO released its overview of the Governor’s January budget highlighting that that state’s budget position continues to be strong. They also focus on the fact that the Governor’s proposed budget prioritizes the repayments of state debts and a great deal of one-time funding. Nearly half of the discretionary spending is earmarked to pay down state liabilities, including unfunded retirement liabilities and budget debts. Twenty-five (25) percent of the discretionary spending is for one time or temporary funding proposals, and 15 percent for discretionary reserves. The LAO applauds the Governor’s decision to focus on the repayment of state debts. The LAO points out one thing that many took note of – the Governor has outlined many priorities for budgetary spending. And at least some of the proposals are not fully fleshed out or reflected in the budget document. The LAO was not critical of this but pointed out that these un-finalized proposals give the Legislature the opportunity to weigh in with the Administration and have their say in its development.
