  • League of Women Voters of North & Central San Mateo County, California
    The Voter League of Women Voters of North & Central San Mateo County, California The League of Women Voters is where hands-on work to safeguard democracy leads to civic improvement. April 2018 General Meeting Tuesday April 17, 2018 7-9 p.m. Colma Community Center 1520 Hillside Boulevard, Colma WIRE for Women Women Helping Women Enter Public Office Women are underrepresented on every level of government and politics in this country. On the national level, women comprise only 20% of the US Congress and only 24% of state legislatures. Only about 19% of mayoral positions across the country are held by women and women hold only 25% of statewide executive level positions. Why is this? Why don’t more women run for office or get appointed to local Boards? More importantly, how do we change this imbalance so that women are equally represented in our government? The answer may be with groups like WIRE. WIRE's goal is to accelerate the identification and recruitment of qualified women for public office. Speaker: Carol Mayer Marshall, Founder and President of WIRE for Women WIRE is a nonpartisan organization comprised of women and men committed to increasing the number of women in appointed and elected office in San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties. WIRE identifies and recruits candidates for public office and supports their efforts by providing a broad network of resources. For more information, go to the WIRE website at www.wireforwomen.com. This meeting is open to the public. Please contact Susie Raye, Program Director for more information: [email protected] or leave a message at (650)342-5853.

  • July 9, 2019 the Honorable Anthony Portantino Chair, Senate
    July 9, 2019 The Honorable Anthony Portantino Chair, Senate Appropriations Committee State Capitol, Room 3086 Sacramento, CA 95814 RE: Assembly Bill 1080 (Gonzalez) – SUPPORT IF AMENDED As Amended July 5, 2019 Dear Senator Portantino: On behalf of the Rural County Representatives of California (RCRC), I am writing with respect to Assembly Bill 1080, authored by Assembly Member Lorena Gonzalez, which, among other things, requires manufacturers to source, reduce, and recycle single- use packaging and products sold in California. While we are strongly supportive of what the bill seeks to accomplish, we believe some amendments are vital to avoid costly burdens on local governments. RCRC is an association of thirty-six rural California counties, and the RCRC Board of Directors is comprised of elected supervisors from each of those member counties. California is in the process of implementing SB 1383 (Lara, Chapter 395, 2016), which establishes ambitious goals to reduce landfill disposal of organic waste 75 percent below 2014 levels by 2025. CalRecycle’s far-reaching SB 1383 regulation could cost as much as $20 billion to implement and poses many challenges for local governments. Considering the massive costs local governments will soon face with SB 1383 implementation, it is vital to avoid imposing additional costly requirements on local jurisdictions. Previous versions of AB 1080 appropriately placed compliance obligations on manufacturers and retailers who produce and sell single-use products; however, the June 20 amendments significantly

  • State Issues
    Week of January 14, 2019 State Issues Legislative Analyst This week, the Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) released its overview of Governor Newsom’s budget proposal for FY Report on State 2019-20 that was presented last week, and saw a new leader selected to lead this non-partisan organization. The Budget Legislature appointed a new state Legislative Analyst to fill the role Mac Taylor has held for 10 years. They named Gabriel Petek to the post, who most recently worked for Standard and Poor’s Global Ratings San Francisco Office where he is currently the state’s primary credit analyst. He takes the reins on February 4. In addition to getting a new chief, the LAO released its overview of the Governor’s January budget highlighting that that state’s budget position continues to be strong. They also focus on the fact that the Governor’s proposed budget prioritizes the repayments of state debts and a great deal of one-time funding. Nearly half of the discretionary spending is earmarked to pay down state liabilities, including unfunded retirement liabilities and budget debts. Twenty-five (25) percent of the discretionary spending is for one time or temporary funding proposals, and 15 percent for discretionary reserves. The LAO applauds the Governor’s decision to focus on the repayment of state debts. The LAO points out one thing that many took note of – the Governor has outlined many priorities for budgetary spending. And at least some of the proposals are not fully fleshed out or reflected in the budget document. The LAO was not critical of this but pointed out that these un-finalized proposals give the Legislature the opportunity to weigh in with the Administration and have their say in its development.

  • 2014 Environmental Justice Scorecard 2 Championing Solutions to the Environmental Health and Climate Change Issues Facing Working Class Communities of Color
    CEJA’s 2nd Environmental Justice Scorecard The California Environmental Justice Alliance (CEJA) is proud to release our 2nd Environmental Justice Score- card for the 2014 Legislative Session. This scorecard is the only one in the state to assess how well California’s elected officials supported actions to address environmental issues that impact low-income communities and communities of color. Scorecard Methodology and Scoring We selected bills that CEJA as a coalition or our members publicly supported or opposed. We chose bills that were significant: they would either make important contributions to addressing environmental justice, or would enact policies detrimental to communities of color. In total, CEJA scored 13 bills. Senators were scored on a total of 11 bills and Assemblymembers on a total of 12 bills. Of the ten bills that made it to the Governor’s desk, he signed eight of them. Unfortunately, due to rule restrictions, Senate pro Tem De León was unable to cast his vote on a couple of measures included in our scorecard because he was engaged in helping to move other important measures on the Assembly floor, thus impacting his score. However, none of these bills were close votes and in both instances he had previously voted for the bills in committee. We believe his score would have been different if the Senate Rules had similar rules as the Assembly on such matters. About the California Environmental Justice Alliance The California Environmental Justice Alliance (CEJA) is a statewide coalition of grassroots, environmental jus- tice organizations. We are working to achieve environmental justice by organizing in low-income communities and communities of color – those most impacted by environmental hazards – and by pushing for policies at the federal, state, regional and local levels that protect public health and the environment.

  • May 19, 2020 Senator Scott Wiener California State Senate Sacramento
    May 19, 2020 Senator Scott Wiener California State Senate Sacramento, CA 95814 Via email to: [email protected] cc: [email protected] & [email protected] Re: OPPOSITION of SB 939 – UNFAIRLY NEGATES LEASES & UNEVENLY HARMS BUSINESSES Dear Senator Wiener: Established in 1924, Central City Association is an advocacy organization committed to the vibrancy of Downtown Los Angeles and increasing investment in the region. As you know from our support of SB 50 and SB 827, we are strong advocates for walkable and inclusive communities and greatly appreciate the work you have done to support businesses across California; however, we strongly oppose SB 939 as proposed. CCA understands the impossible fiscal challenges that businesses are facing across the state due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but we believe SB 939 unfairly benefits one business over another. COVID-19 will continue to impact the health and safety of our communities and businesses. As a membership organization that represents approximately 400 organizations in LA County, we know that all businesses are impacted by this pandemic. However, SB 939 only provides protection to a small segment, while shifting economic harm to other private businesses and removing rights from commercial property owners. Governor Newsom has shown strong leadership in issuing a series of executive orders limiting evictions, including Executive Order N-28-20 which gives local government the ability to protect commercial tenants from evictions. Legislative leadership has also proposed a plan that helps lessors and lessees. We request your bill be changed to protect all businesses and not a special subset.
