Biography Willie Lewis Brown, Jr. was born March 20, 1934 in Minneola, Texas and became one of California’s most influential politicians. He gradulated from San Francisco State College in 1955 and received a Juris Doctor degree from Hastings College of the Law in 1958. Brown was in private practice when he was elected to represent the 18th Assembly District (Democrat, San Francisco; later represented the 17th and 13th ADs) in the California Assembly in 1965. He served as Speaker from 1980 to 1995, a record term and the first African American in that role. He enjoyed a powerful long tenure, Finding Aid to the Willie L. Brown, SFH 69 2 Jr. Papers, 1960s-2003, Bulk 1996-2003, SFH 69 raising significant money for his fellow Democrats. Brown is married to the former Blanche Vitero. He has four children. Brown was elected San Francisco’s 41st mayor on December 12, 1995, in a runoff with the incumbent, Frank Jordan. Brown was the city’s first African American mayor. He served two terms, from Jan. 8, 1996 to Jan. 8, 2004, and he oversaw San Francisco’s most diverse administration, including the first Asian American police chief, and first African American fire and police chiefs. In 1996 he signed the Equal Benefits Ordinance requiring city contractors to provide domestic partner benefits to their employees, the first such law in the country. In his first days in office, he abolished Jordan’s Matrix program which cracked down on street crimes such as public sleeping, camping, and drinking. His homeless policy included new shelters, supportive housing, job training, and drug treatment centers. However, quality of life issues and widespread homelessness persisted. Long associated with developers as an assemblyman, Mayor Brown moved large-scale development projects forward including condominium buildings, the airport’s new International Terminal, the Port, and the City’s newest neighborhood, Mission Bay, which became home to the University of California, San Francisco’s biotechnology campus. A privately-financed downtown baseball stadium measure was approved by voters in 1996; the San Francisco Giants played their first game there in April of 2000. In 1995 City Hall underwent a 4-year, $300 million seismic retrofit and restoration. The mayor also signed an agreement with the U.S. Navy to clean up and transfer the formal Hunters Point Naval Shipyard. San Francisco’s economy was marked by the dot-com boom of the late 1990s, marked by gentrification and soaring housing prices; followed by the crash of 2001. Tourism and the growth of Internet technology, called Web 2.0, brought economic recovery by 2003. Brown increased the city budget to $5.2 billion, adding 4000 employees. Notably, on Jan. 1, 2001, San Francisco became the second California county to offer nearly universal health coverage for children. Brown was easily re-elected in the December 1999 runoff over write-in candidate, Supervisor Tom Ammiano. He had made numerous appointments to the Board of Supervisors. However, a number of his allies on the board were defeated in the reinstated district elections held in the fall of 2000. The mayor had an acrimonious time with the new board; he did not attend their meetings. Upon leaving office, he said, "There's nothing that compares to my eight years as mayor of San Francisco. It's been an incredible ride." He continues to be at the center of California politics and government as a political adviser. He created and heads the Willie L. Brown, Jr. Institute on Politics and Public Service. Brown released an autobiography, Basic Brown: My Life and Our Times, and is a columnist with the San Francisco Chronicle and a political commentator. In 2013, the western span of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge was renamed in his honor. Scope and Contents This collection documents the mayoral career of Willie L.

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.

EXISTING LAW : 1)Provides that every person who commits any of the following acts is guilty of disorderly conduct, a misdemeanor: (Penal Code Section 647.) a) Who solicits anyone to engage in or who engages in lewd or dissolute conduct in any public place or in any place open to the public or exposed to public view. [Penal Code Section 647(a).] b) Who solicits or who agrees to engage in or who engages in any act of prostitution. A person agrees to engage in an act of prostitution when, with specific intent to so engage, he or she manifests an acceptance of an offer or solicitation to so engage, regardless of whether the offer or solicitation was made by a person who also possessed the specific intent to engage in prostitution. No agreement to engage in an act of prostitution shall constitute a violation of this subdivision unless some act, in addition to the agreement, is done within this state in furtherance of the commission of an act of prostitution by the person agreeing to engage in that act.
