  • Media Release Latinas Lead California Endorses Loretta
    Media Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE August 22, 2016 CONTACT: Press Office 714-774-0236 Latinas Lead California Endorses Loretta Sanchez for the U.S. Senate LOS ANGELES, CA – Today, Latinas Lead California endorsed Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez for the United States Senate. The organization cited her 20 years of fighting for policies that support and strengthen women and families on issues including healthcare, gender equality, pay equity, reproductive rights and service in the military. “Loretta Sanchez has a proven track record of fighting for our communities and advocating for the rights of women and families in Congress. She has been a pioneer of Latina leadership both in our state and nation. We are proud to stand with Loretta in her bid to represent our state and be the first Latina elected to the U.S. Senate," stated Latinas Lead California. “I’m honored to have the support of Latinas Lead California,” said Rep. Loretta Sanchez. “As California’s next United States Senator, I will continue to empower women and fight for gender equality in education, workplace and the military. I will make access to education and equal pay for equal work for women a priority because we must end the inequality that women still face in the workplace.” Rep. Sanchez has been a member of the Congressional Women’s Caucus and the Congressional Hispanic Caucus for 20 years and has partnered with her colleagues to successfully pass legislation that supports women. She was a co-sponsor of the Lilly Ledbetter Fair pay Act, which restores the ability for women to use the judicial system to seek redress when facing pay discrimination.

  • 2012 Election Results Coastal Commission Legislative Report
    STATE OF CALIFORNIA—NATURAL RESOURCES AGENCY EDMUND G. BROWN, JR., GOVERNOR CALIFORNIA COASTAL COMMISSION 45 FREMONT, SUITE 2000 SAN FRANCISCO, CA 94105- 2219 VOICE (415) 904- 5200 FAX (415) 904- 5400 TDD (415) 597-5885 W-19a LEGISLATIVE REPORT 2012 ELECTION—CALIFORNIA COASTAL DISTRICTS DATE: January 9, 2013 TO: California Coastal Commission and Interested Public Members FROM: Charles Lester, Executive Director Sarah Christie, Legislative Director Michelle Jesperson, Federal Programs Manager RE: 2012 Election Results in Coastal Districts This memo describes the results of the 2012 elections in California’s coastal districts. 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.

    Public Comment: 4 - Los Angeles Subject: Public Comment: 4 - Los Angeles From: JOHN CHOI < Date: Sat, 30 Jul 2011 08:43:50 +0000 To: From: JOHN CHOI < Subject: REDISTRICTING MAP Message Body: I live in the city of Torrance and was part of a grossly gerrymandered district that ensured Democrats would win every time. In fact it was so bad that a deceased democrat won handily. I would have liked to seen more competitive races in my assembly, senate and house districts. Quick comments. Kudos for including Palos Verdes area in the district...that was conveniently cut out before due to conservatives living there. I don't like the fact that my city was cut in half in order to carve out a safe "black" seat for south LA for all three maps. My district unfortunately will stay a "blue" district and even more so than before. I don't know why the congressional district became such geographically large and has all the rich white liberal towns in it to ensure a maintenance of a "white" democratic district while to the east is a deliberately gerrymandered one to ensure a black democrat. These two districts should have been more drawn as north and south...without regards to having a white and black district. I have issues with maps that ensured the safety of the Sanchez sisters...carving out even a safer Orange County and East LA districts to ensure their reelection. When I voted yes twice to create this commission, I thought we were going to have natural boundaries based on cities and not have districts that curve, zig zag and circle around spots.

  • Congressional Campaign Update
    February 2012 Congressional Campaign Update Overview With a little more than 250 campaigning days left before election day, a quick snapshot of the current state of play in the House and the Senate races is in order. In the House all 435 seats will be on the ballot, and in the Senate 33 statewide races will be held. Democrats need to pick up a net total of 25 seats in the House to claim the majority, and must prevent the Republicans from picking up 4 seats, and the majority, in the Senate. Senate Retirement House Retirement Kent Conrad (D) Mike Ross (D) Dale Kildee (D) Joe Lieberman (I) Jeff Flake (R) Todd Akin (R) Jim Webb (D) Gabby Giffords (D) Denny Rehberg (R) Jeff Bingaman (D) Wally Herger (R) Brad Miller (D) Daniel Akaka (D) Lynn Woolsey (D) Rick Berg (R) Herb Kohl (D) Jerry Lewis (R) Martin Heinrich (D) Ben Nelson (D) Dennis Cardoza (D) Shelley Berkley (D) Kay Bailey Hutchison (R) Elton Gallegly (R) Maurice Hinchey (D) Jon Kyle (R) Bob Filner (D) Steve Austria (R) Chris Murphy (D) Dan Boren (D) With three retirements over the past month, the 2012 Connie Mack (R) David Wu (D) Senate landscape is quickly taking shape. So far, it’s been Mazie Hirono (D) Todd Platts (R) somewhat welcome news for Republicans aiming to take back the Senate majority next year. Democrats must Jerry Costello (D) Ron Paul (R) defend 23 seats, 10 of which are currently considered Joe Donnelly (D) Charlie Gonzalez (D) competitive, while Republicans must defend 10 seats, Dan Burton (R) Jay Inslee (D) only 2 of which are currently considered competitive.

  • Congressman Ted Poe (R-TX) and Congresswoman Janice Hahn (D
    Congressman Ted Poe (R-TX) and Congresswoman Janice Hahn (D-CA) recently announced the formation of the bipartisan Congressional Ports Opportunity, Renewal, Trade, and Security (PORTS) Caucus. The Caucus was created in recognition of the vital role our ports play to the preservation of our nation’s economy and national security. Mission of the Caucus The Caucus’ mission will be to promote the importance of our ports to the nation’s economy and the need to secure them by promoting dialogue and coordination between Congress, the Administration and relevant federal agencies, as well as important industry officials. Why Ports are Important to the United States Ports create jobs, economic growth, and opportunity. United States ports support 13.3 million jobs and account for $3.15 trillion in business activity to the economy. Every congressional district in the country is dependent on U.S. ports, from the products on store shelves to the technology in our living rooms. Ports allow businesses, large and small, access to markets around the world and the opportunity to grow and create new American jobs. The United States is served by more than 350 commercial sea and river ports that support 3,200 cargo and passenger handling facilities. Each day, United States ports move both imports and exports totaling some $3.8 billion worth of goods through all 50 states. Additionally, ports move 99.4 percent of overseas cargo volume by weight and generate $3.95 trillion in international trade. Given the importance of ports to our national economy, they must remain competitive and secure. Caucus Members The Caucus is composed of Members from all regions of the country, including Representatives: Ted Poe (TX), Janice Hahn (CA), Adam Smith (WA), Jesse Jackson Jr.
