  • 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.

  • Ruth Bader Ginsburg Lecture Series 2001–2019 011219 Women and the Law Conference History
    WOMEN AND THE LAW CONFERENCE RUTH BADER GINSBURG LECTURE SERIES 2001–2019 011219 WOMEN AND THE LAW CONFERENCE HISTORY Inaugurated in 2001, the Women and the Law Conference was the first lecture series in the western United States focusing exclusively on issues related to gender and the law. Created by Thomas Jefferson Professors Julie Greenberg, Susan Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Tiefenbrun and Susan Bisom-Rapp, and fostered by a committed group of faculty, staff and students, the first conference earned rave reviews from its attendees, including practitioners and legal academics. Professor Deborah Rhode of Stanford Law School, a widely acknowledged expert on the status of women in the legal profession, and then-Chair of the American Bar Association’s Commission on Women in the Legal Profession, delivered the first keynote address. After her 2003 visit to Thomas Jefferson School of Law, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg generously created the Thomas Jefferson School of Law Ruth Bader Ginsburg Lecture, which at the time was one of only two lecture series bearing her name. Ruth Bader Ginsburg Lecturers Joan Williams, Martha Albertson Fineman, Kathryn Abrams, Vicki Schultz, Rochelle Dreyfuss, Barbara Palmer, Cheryl Hanna, Kimberlé Crenshaw, Stacy Leeds, Sarah Weddington, Susan Williams, Stacy Pedrozo, Leslie Abramson, Bryant Garth, Leticia Saucedo, and Linda C. Babcock have delivered presentations on a wide range of topics that have a profound effect on women. Chai Feldblum is delivering the 2019 Ruth Bader Ginsburg Lecture. Justice Ginsburg returned to the 2013 Women and the Law Conference and discussed the role of women in the judiciary.

Dutton, Senate Minority Leader Greg Maw, Senate Republican Policy Director For providing gainful employment that I enjoy. Gregory P. Schmidt, Secretary of the Senate Bernadette McNulty, Chief Assistant Secretary of the Senate Holly Hummelt , Senate Amending Clerk Zach Twilla, Senate Reading Clerk For an orderly house and the lists that made this book possible.

Jessica Billingsley, Senate Republican Floor Manager For extraordinary patience with research projects that never end. Richard Paul, Senate Republican Policy Consultant For hospitality and good friendship. Wade Teasdale, Senate Republican Policy Consultant For understanding the importance of Bradley and Dilworth. A Note from the Author An important thing to keep in mind as you read this book is that there is information missing. In the first two decades that California’s legislature existed, we had more individuals serve as legislators than we have in the last 90 years.1 Add to the massive turnover the fact that no official biographies were kept during this time and that the state capitol moved seven times during those twenty years, and you have a recipe for missing information. As an example, we only know the birthplace for about 63% of the legislators. In spite of my best efforts, there are still hundreds of legislators about whom we know almost nothing.

  • Most Influential: Kevin Faulconer ... and the Rest of the List
    » Newsletter Sign­Up About Advertising Contact Enter your email... Subscribe Most Influential: Kevin Faulconer ... And the rest of the list Our City is ending our list of San Diego's 20 Most Influential people with new Mayor Kevin Faulconer. He has become San Diego's Most Influential person. When we began compiling this list back at the end of 2013, the race to replace disgraced former Mayor Bob Filner was ongoing and it was unknown who would be leading the city. Now, of course, we know. Faulconer won easily over his opponent, freshman Council member David Alvarez. Faulconer won, but the honor brings its share of hurdles. First is continuing the work that interim Mayor Todd Gloria started, which is to bring stability and honor back to the office. Secondly, it is to lead the nation's eighth largest city at a time when many challenges face it, such as infrastructure woes, homelessness, a shortage of affordable housing, income inequality … Faulconer has stepped quickly into his new role. He's already spearheaded a number of initiatives to improve San Diego's neighborhoods, increase library and rec center hours and beef up public safety. He named Shelley Zimmerman as police chief, the first women in San Diego to hold that post. When the recent wildfires hit, he offered a calm and measured presence. His influence may well go beyond San Diego as well. He's the only Republican mayor of a major U.S. city. Other Republican politicians may look to his rise as a blueprint to achieve similar success. Recent Highlights He did so by taking a moderate approach on social issues.

  • Adapting to Term Limits in California: Recent Experiences and New Directions
    Adapting to Term Limits in California: Recent Experiences and New Directions By Bruce E. Cain, University of California, Berkeley Thad Kousser, University of California, San Diego Joint Project on Term Limits 2004 National Conference of State Legislatures Council of State Governments State Legislative Leaders’ Foundation 7700 East First Place Denver, CO 80230-7143 (303) 364-7700 • fax (303) 364-7800 444 North Capitol Street, N.W., Suite 515 Washington, D.C. 20001 (202) 624-5400 • fax (202) 737-1069 http://www.ncsl.org © 2005 by the National Conference of State Legislatures. All rights reserved. Summary Passed in 1990, Proposition 140 changed Sacramento by setting term limits for legislators, but exactly how has it affected the Legislature, and what can the institution do to respond? This study moves beyond the stale debate over whether term limits made California politics better or worse and instead develops concrete measures of their effects and identifies ways to adapt to changes. Guided by the testimony and advice of informed observers, it offers quantitative analyses using bill histories, voting behavior, the content of bills, budget figures, and other archival records to explore how term limits have shaped the way the Legislature deals with major issues. We find that term limits altered – but did not revolutionize – the type of legislator who comes to Sacramento. In particular, Proposition 140 helped to accelerate trends of increasing female and minority representation that were already underway in California. Instead of being a new breed of “citizen legislator,” however, new members after term limits are more likely to have local government experience and to run for another office—for Assemblymembers, often a State Senate seat—when their terms expire.

DESCRIPTORS *Accountability; *Charter Schools; Educational Innovation; Elementary Secondary Education; *Enrollment; Ethnic Groups; Government School Relationship; Racial Composition; *School Demography; *School Organization; State Legislation; Student Evaluation IDENTIFIERS *California ABSTRACT In 1992, California became the second state to enact legislation enabling the creation of charter schools. This report provides information about 44 California charter schools that, as of the 1994-95 school year, had been in operation for at least 1 year. These 44 schools responded to a survey that was sent to each of the 62 California charter schools that were operational during the 1994-95 school year elicited (the response rate was 71 percent). Of the 62 schools, 33 serve elementary grades, 5 serve middle grades, 5 serve high school grades, and 18 serve some combination of the three. The data show wide variation among the schools as to geographic location, size and urbanicity, curricular and instructional practices, and strategies for student assessment. Many charter schools were linked to other national-level education reform efforts, and many had invested heavily in educational technology. In general, the schools used innovative instructional practices, reached out to less advantaged and racially diverse student populations, enjoyed intensive parent and community support, and were laying the groundwork for achieving a deregulated and accountability-driven education system.

  • Jose Antonio Estudilloj Transcribed by Debra ~T:Neal SIDE ONE Lucy
    • AIRED PROGRAM #4 Transcribed by Debra ~t:Neal Jose Antonio Estudilloj, SIDE ONE Lucy Killea (LK): The geographic region that encompasses San Diego and Tijuana and which had a unity in the Spanish and Mcx i.canperi od and definitely has a geographic unity, had this artificial line put into it. Peter Hamlin (PH): The period just before the establishment of that boundary is the subject of this program, San Diego's Mexican Period. Jose'~1tonio Estudillo was one of the most important citizens of Mexican San Diego. This was the time of the Spanish Dons, an era of Old World elegance for some, but also a difficult time in the life of a rapidly changing Mexican pueblo. Don JosE!Antonio Estudillo' s life is also interesting because he lived here during a transitional period in which San Diego paid allegiance to three different nations, first Spain, then Mexico, and finally the United States. His life is the subject of this fourth program in the series, Twe lve Who Shaped San Diego." J'm Peter Hamlin, and joining me is San Diego historian and chief historical consultant for these progrmns, Dr. Clare Crane. Clare, our prececding program in this series discussed Captain Henry Fitch, and in that program we discussed the beginning of the Mexican era here in San Diego. Could you give us a recap of the Mexican era? When did it begin and what were the major events of that period in San Diego's history? Clare Crane (CC): Well, sometimes it's even called the Mexican interlude because it was such a short period of time, really only twenty-five years from 1821 when the revolution took place in Mexico that made it independent of Spain, until the American conquest in 1846.
