  • 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.

    April 14, 2020 The Honorable David L. Bernhardt U.S. Department of the Interior 1849 C Street N.W. Washington D.C. 20240 Dear Secretary Bernhardt: We are greatly concerned about the Department of Interior’s handling of public rulemaking and public comment periods while the country and the world fight the coronavirus pandemic. As you know, the President declared a national emergency on March 13, 2020, and as of April 7, 2020 more than 11,000 Americans are estimated to have died from COVID-19, with public health experts projecting the possibility of more than 100,000 deaths in the United States. Given these dire circumstances, it is inappropriate that the Department of Interior continue its rulemaking process while the public’s attention is elsewhere. The Department’s refusal to extend comment periods will, in effect, curtail the public’s right to a meaningful opportunity to participate in the rulemaking process. Due to the national emergency and to ensure the public’s legal right to a meaningful and robust participation process, we urge the Department to either: 1. Pause all open public comment periods on rulemaking and non-rulemaking, unrelated to the COVID-19 emergency response, and only reopen them once the Declared nation emergency has ended. Once reopened, extend the comment periods by at least 45 days. Comment periods from March 13, 2020 to the present should also resume at that time; or 2. Keep open and extend all open public comment periods on rulemaking and non- rulemaking, unrelated to the COVID-19 emergency response, by at least 45 days beyond the end of the declared national emergency, including immediately reopening comment periods which closed from March 13, 2020 to the present.

    July 15, 2020 Ambassador Jose Manuel Romualdez Embassy of the Republic of the Philippines 1600 Bataan St. NW Washington, DC 20036 Dear Ambassador Jose Manuel Romualdez: We are writing to express our alarm over the “Anti-terrorism Act of 2020” which was recently approved by the Congress of the Philippines and signed into law by President Duterte. Enactment of this legislation into law sends the wrong message about the Philippine Government’s respect for human rights. We urge you to request President Duterte and the Congress consider repealing this repressive legislation. As Members of Congress who have heard from organizations and individuals working to improve the Philippines for all its citizens, we share their concerns that human, labor, environmental, and indigenous rights communities as well as political opponents are being routinely targeted in efforts to silence their voices and the communities they are working to support. Those concerns were proven to be well founded recently when the United Nations issued a detailed report on what they identify as serious human rights violations, targeted arrests and killings, and the “vilification of dissent” in the country. In light of this systemic oppression in the Philippines by the Duterte Administration, we believe that this legislation giving a body hand-picked by the President the authority to classify any organization a “terrorist organization” and have supporters or members of those organizations arrested without a warrant or a criminal charge and be detained for up to 24 days is nothing more than a tool to continue these attacks on civil and human rights groups. With a long track record of using drug laws and martial law in parts of the country to target innocent activists who did nothing other than speak out against government policies, we clearly are left with no option but to view this as just the latest and most egregious effort to silence those fighting for basic and fundamental human rights in the Philippines.
