Until his election to the Assembly in 2012, he served four terms on the Lassen County Board of Supervisors. Dahle's Lassen County farm was purchased by his grandparents in the 1940s and has remained in the family since then. When his parents retired, he and his wife, Megan, purchased the farm, which is now over 2,000 acres. They also operate and manage Big Valley Seed and Big Valley Nursery. Megan is a board member of the Big Valley Unified School District. They have three children. Assembly District 2 CalChiro Recommendation: Jim Wood (D) Jim Wood was elected to the Assembly in 2014. Before leaving for the Assembly, he was elected to the Healdsburg City Council in 2006 and served as a former member of the city’s planning commission. A family dentist who has maintained a practice in Cloverdale since 1987, Wood is a nationally recognized expert in forensic dentistry and has worked with law enforcement to solve cold cases. He is also the co-founder of the Healdsburg Green City Committee. He and his wife have one son. Assembly District 3 CalChiro Recommendation: Jim Gallagher (R) James Gallagher, at the time of his election to the Assembly in 2014, was a member of the Sutter County Board of Supervisors where he was first elected in 2008. He is the sixth generation of an Irish immigrant family that settled in south Sutter County in the late 1880s. -
February 26, 2021 the Honorable Phil Ting the Honorable Vince Fong
February 26, 2021 The Honorable Phil Ting The Honorable Vince Fong Chair, Assembly Committee on Budget Vice Chair, Assembly Committee on Budget State Capitol, Room 6026 State Capitol, Room 2002 Sacramento, CA 95814 Sacramento, CA 95814 The Honorable Wendy Carrillo Chair, Assembly Budget Subcommittee 4 on State Administration State Capitol, Room 4167 Sacramento, CA 95814 RE: RESTORING NET OPERATING LOSS DEDUCTIONS AND BUSINESS INCENTIVE TAX CREDITS Dear Assemblymembers Ting, Fong, and Carrillo: We, the undersigned Members of the Legislature, respectfully request that this year’s budget restore the net operating loss (NOL) deduction and business incentive tax credits that were suspended and capped in the 2020 budget via AB 85 (Chapter 8, Statutes of 2020). We approved this action last year in order to close an estimated $54.3 billion budget deficit, which thankfully never came to fruition. Sunsetting the suspension and cap would assist employers in their economic recovery and incentivize them to remain in California. The sunset provision is also timely considering California’s General Fund is experiencing a windfall. In July, we approved the Governor’s proposal to suspend the use of personal and business NOLs and limit the use of existing business tax credits to offset their tax liability for years 2020-2022. This proposal was advanced to raise approximately $9.2 billion in revenue to help address the budget shortfall expected as a result of COVID-19. While the tax increases were painful for employers, they were willing to pitch in to support the state’s pandemic response. However, California is not even close to experiencing a budget shortfall in 2021. -
Strengthening and Advocating for Asian American Native Hawai‘Ian/ Pacific Islander Communities
Strengthening and Advocating for Asian American Native Hawai‘ian/ Pacific Islander Communities CALIFORNIA COMMissiON ON ASIAN AND PaciFIC ISLANDER AMERICAN AFFAIRS 2012 ANNUAL REPORT Message from the Chair: BLONG XIONG GOVERNOR EDMUND G. BROWN, JR., MEMBERS OF THE LEGISLATURE, AND THE PEOPLE OF THE GREAT STATE OF CALIFORNIA: On behalf of the dedicated citizens who serve on the California Commission on Asian and Pacific Islander American Affairs, I am honored to present to you this report of the Commission’s 2012 activities. Since our establishment in 2002, our goal has been to give voice to California’s vibrant, highly diverse, and continually-growing Asian and Pacific Islander American (APIA) communities. We bring public officials together with community-based and civic organizations that devote their mission and programs to the needs of their APIA constituents. The highlights in this report provide a summary of the breadth of the Commission’s activities. This year’s report also includes an historical review of the issues that the Commission has focused on over the years, since our inception a decade ago. We also pay tribute to the past appointed commissioners who served during the years since operations began in 2004. Last year was a period of change as we acknowledged the great public service of Assemblymember Warren Furutani, who retired from office. During his tenure as a state legislator, he was a moving force for the Commission and our goal to strengthen APIA communities. There was a change in Commission membership as well, with Tami Bui, Courtni Pugh, Alice Wong, and Bill Wong stepping down. -

Amicus Curiae Letter in Support of Petition for Review Pico Neighborhood Association, Et Al
August 20, 2020 Hon. Chief Justice Tani Gorre Cantil-Sakauye and Hon. Associate Justices Supreme Court of California 350 McAllister Street, Room 1295 San Francisco, CA 94102-4797 Re: Amicus Curiae Letter in Support of Petition for Review Pico Neighborhood Association, et al. v. City of Santa Monica Court of Appeal, Second Appellate District, Division Eight, Case No. B295935 Los Angeles Superior Court Case No. BC616804 Dear Chief Justice and Associate Justices of the California Supreme Court: In its July 9, 2020 Opinion, the Court of Appeal held that the California Voting Rights Act (Elections Code 14025-14032, “CVRA”) only applies to jurisdictions in which a minority community is numerous and geographically concentrated enough to comprise the majority of voters in a compact election district. The Court of Appeal reasoned that only with a majority in an election district could a minority community elect its preferred candidates. Our collective experience, as Latino, Black and Asian Pacific Islander elected officials in California demonstrates that the Opinion is wrong. As discussed below, nearly half of us were elected to the Legislature by districts where the corresponding minority community accounts for between 20% and 49% of the district’s eligible voters. Still, it is, in part, because of the strong support we receive from our respective minority communities that we have prevailed in elections. Not only is the Opinion wrong, it is horribly damaging to the voting rights of millions of Californians, and the prospects for the next generation of minority leaders. Because California is exceptionally diverse (one of our state’s great strengths), and not as segregated as the Deep South (at which the federal Voting Rights Act of 1965 was directed), minority communities are not compact enough to comprise the majority of voters in an election district in many jurisdictions. -
