In other words, women must work an additional 90 days before they achieve Vice Presidents the same pay for the same work as men. While the U.S. Yahairah Aristy women’s soccer team has recently brought equal pay to the forefront of Brigid Campo public discourse, disparate compensation affects all women, including Tracy Schimelfenig women in the legal profession. Megan Walker Directors The gender pay gap is persistent and harmful to women’s economic Kimberly Ahrens security. The pay gap translates into women receiving only $0.82 Katherine Lee Carey for every $1.00 received in compensation by men. According to the Shannon Finley Institute for Women’s Policy Research, that pay gap between women Amanda LoCurto and men is projected to last until 2059 at the current rate of reduction. Jinsook Ohta As a further illustration of the current trend, when my daughter turns 3 Maggie Schroedter 65 (she is six months old), it is projected that 11 states will still have Amanda Singer a pay gap. The wage gap is even greater for most women of color: Sara Waller Black women receive 62% less than men; and Latinas receive 54% Julie Wolff Arlene Yang less than men. Executive Director While studies have shown that the pay gap is partly caused by structural Elaine Lawrence differences in careers for men and women (i.e. 40% of women work in Director of Programming “pink collar” jobs), much of the pay gap is attributable to unconscious Ivy Kosmides and explicit discrimination in pay, hiring, or promotions. For example, Administrative Coordinator while women have made significant strides in careers once dominated Ashley Carbonell by men over the last twenty years, there has been no material change in the wage gap. Not only does lower pay mean that women are less able to support their families than men, but studies have shown that Lawyers Club News is published equal pay would cut poverty among working women by more than monthly 11 times a year, with a combined 50% and add about $513 billion to the economy.

Stacey Abrams is a political trailblazer, nonprofit CEO, New York Times bestselling author, tax attorney, and has recently added television producer to her resume. The theme for this year’s dinner, “Driving Change,” is inspired by a combination of: the 150th anniversary of ratification of 4 the 15th Amendment; the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment; Abrams’ service as a trailblazing politician and founder of Fair Fight; and the ongoing fight for gender equality by Lawyers Club’s founding mothers, leaders, and members. Abrams exemplifies this year’s theme and the mission of Lawyers Club, to advance the status of women in law and in society. In 2010, Abrams became the first woman to lead either party in the Georgia General Assembly and the first African American of any gender to lead in the Georgia House of Representatives. In 2018, Abrams became the first black woman to become the gubernatorial nominee for a major party in the United States as the Democratic nominee for Governor of Georgia. Those who drive change dare to be powerful, take action to MARCH 2020 clear obstacles, and motivate others to do the same in order to achieve results and change the status quo. The results of the election for Governor of Georgia defied historical voter turnout statistics. It tripled the participation of Latinos and Asian Americans, doubled the youth participation, and Abrams received the highest percentage of white voters recorded in Georgia since Bill Clinton. Abrams’ election accomplishments did not stop when she became the first African American woman candidate – instead, she continued to inspire voters to take action in record-breaking numbers. Abrams’ refusal to be silenced or restricted by her perceived gender and race limitations makes her an ideal speaker for the KEYNOTE SPEAKER Lawyers Club Annual Dinner. “Silence is not only dangerous, it is corrosive,” Abrams notes in her book Lead from the STACEY ABRAMS Outside. This innate defiance of inequitable norms is the very same trait that drove the founding mothers of Lawyers Club to make a reservation under a male colleague’s name at The Grant Grill, a local restaurant that displayed a plaque that openly announced “No Women before 3:00 p.m.” We are proud to have such a fierce advocate for voting rights, during the formative years of our nation where only white especially for those that have historically been systematically male landowners were permitted to vote, Abrams launched disenfranchised from economic, political, and social capital. Fair Fight, an organization that brings awareness of election reform to the public, advocates for election reform at all “Such a fierce advocate for voting rights reminds us of the levels, and engages in targeted voter registration and other importance of women’s political participation, as women voter outreach programs and communications. and racial minorities were previously prohibited from voting,” remarked Elvira Cortez, president of Lawyers We hope you will join us on May 14th at the Marriott Marquis Club.

    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.

  • Reviewing Precinct Level Results of the June 2012 San Diego Mayoral Election
    Reviewing Precinct Level Results of the June 2012 San Diego Mayoral Election The Looming Battleground in Clairemont The race to become mayor of the City of San Diego has narrowed down to two finalists. In this policy brief the National University System Institute for Policy Research (NUSIPR) analyzed newly released electoral data from the San Diego County Registrar of Voters’ office using GIS software. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • The June mayoral primary was a partisan election. Interstate 8 continues to delineate a partisan divide in San Diego, which weighed heavily in the electoral outcome. GIS maps show that Republican DeMaio earned most of his votes in older, more conservative neighborhoods north of Interestate 8, while Democrat Filner won the lion’s share of votes among the younger, more diverse and liberal enclaves south of 8. Both candidates are likely to target low-propensity partisan voters that did not turn out for the June election, to shore up their base early in the fall election. • Support for Bonnie Dumanis and Nathan Fletcher lacked a geographic base. NUSIPR found that District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis and State Assemblyman Nathan Fletcher won only a handful of precincts outright, even when combining their votes. GIS mapping shows that there was no clear territory where either candidate earned deep voter support. Generally, Dumanis and Fletcher did best in parts of Carmel Valley, Point Loma, and Mission Valley. However, in only 9 precincts (out of a total of approximately 633) did the combined vote total of Dumanis and Fletcher exceed 50%. • Clairemont will be a high-stakes voter battleground for DeMaio and Filner in November.

    THE MURDER OF DONNA GENTILE: SAN DIEGO POLICING AND PROSTITUTION 1980-1993 Jerry Kathleen Limberg Department of History California State University San Marcos © 2012 DEDICATION I dedicate this thesis to my husband, Andrew Limberg. Thank you for your love, encouragement, patience, support, and sacrifice through this endeavor. You have always supported me in my academic and professional goals, despite family and financial challenges. Your countless hours of reading drafts, reviewing film rough cuts, and listening to ideas are appreciated much more than you could possibly know. I also dedicate this thesis to my son Drew. Thank you for your love, hugs, and sacrifice. You are bright, creative, imaginative, caring, generous, inquisitive, and the best son any mother could ever hope for.

THESIS ABSTRACT Donna Gentile, a young San Diego prostitute who had been a police corruption informant was murdered in June, 1985. Her murder occurred approximately a month after she testified in a civil service hearing involving two San Diego police officers, Officer Larry Avrech and Lieutenant Carl Black. The hearing occurred approximately four months after Avrech was fired from the police department and Black was demoted for their involvement with Gentile. Looming over the San Diego community was public speculation that Gentile’s killer was a police officer.

  • Bonnie Dumanis Is One of San Diego's Most Innovative and Respected Law Enforcement Leaders
    Bonnie M. Dumanis Experienced Felony Prosecutor Innovative Leader Seasoned Law Enforcement Manager Bonnie Dumanis is one of San Diego's most innovative and respected law enforcement leaders. She's spent her entire career in public service and her unique blend of experience – three-term District Attorney, Superior Court Judge and Clerk Typist – has given her the skills to successfully reorganize and run one of the largest criminal justice operations in California. Throughout her career Bonnie has been recognized as a team builder and organizational strategist. Bonnie's Career Bonnie's first job as a Junior Clerk Typist in the County, and later as an Intermediate Clerk Typist in the office she now heads, earned her just a few dollars an hour but are positions she considers extremely important in shaping her approach to government organization and management. Even though she is currently the top law enforcement official in San Diego County, Bonnie has never forgotten her first job in the DA's office and keeps a plaque in her office that reads, "The clerk helping in your division today may be your boss tomorrow." Bonnie studied law at night and received her law degree from Thomas Jefferson School of Law in 1976. She went on to serve 12 years as a San Diego Deputy District Attorney, prosecuting murders, rapes, robberies, child abuse and sexual assault cases. In 1990, Bonnie was appointed by the Court and served as Superior Court Referee. She was elected Judge of the Municipal Court in 1994. She served in this capacity for the next four years, using her strength in organizational leadership to create one of the first Drug Courts in San Diego, which was recognized as a national model.
