HAPPENING EVEN BEFORE THE
PANDEMIC IS OFTEN. WITHOUT
THEIR PERMISSION WITHOUT ANY
KIND OF AGREEMENT SOME OF THESE
APPS WERE POSTING- THEIR MENU
ONLINE THEY WERE DOING
DELIVERIES BUT THE RESTAURANT
SOUTH HAD NO CONTROL OVER THAT
SO SOMETIMES A MENU WOULD BE
WRONG IT HAD BEEN UPDATED OR
SOMETIMES THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT
WAS BEING DELIVERED IN THE FOOD
WOULD BE DELIVER COLD OR
INAPPROPRIATELY. AND THE
RESTAURANT HAD NO RECOURSE
ALTHOUGH THEY'RE GETTING
NEGATIVE YELP REVIEWS AND
THEIR- THEIR BEING BLAMED
THEY'RE GETTING PHONE CALLS
BLAMED FOR THESE DISCREPANCIES.

FONG DOCTOR. ERICA YES THE
MISTER SPEAKER MEMBERS I RISE
IN CAUTION WITH WE TO THIS BILL
I WILL SUPPORT IT BECAUSE
OBVIOUSLY I'M NOT NECESSARILY
IN FAVOR OF THE TESTS THAT THAT
THEY'RE TAKING IN TERMS OF IT
ACTUALLY CERTIFYING ANYTHING
WHAT I AM CONCERNED THAT WE
HAVE NOT DONE THE WORK OF
BASICALLY WORK ON WHAT IT TAKES
TO ACTUALLY CERTIFIED TEACHER
IN OUR CLASSROOMS. WE HAVE NOT
CHANGED OUR METHODS OR ANYTHING
ELIMINATING THE ONLY TEST THAT
PROBABLY THAT SOME PROFICIENCY
ATTACHED TO IT NOT THAT IT SAYS
A WHOLE LOT AND MOST OF THE
STATES IN SOME WONDERFUL IN
TERMS OF BAIT DEALING TEACHER.
EIGHT TO FIVE YEARS OF THOSE
KINDS OF THINGS THAT REALLY
MATTER THAT HELP US TO FIGURE
OUT WHO'S A GOOD TEACHER WE'VE
HAD THIS CONVERSATION BEFORE OR
AND SO MY FEAR THAT WE REMOVE
AND WE NEED TO BUT WE HAVEN'T
OUT WHAT WITH US UP IT WITH AND
AS A RESULT WE DON'T HAVE TO
COME IN OTHER THAN COURSES
TAKEN AT. BIRTH THESE THE
GRADES THEY GET AND HAVING BEEN
AT THE UNIVERSITY I NEED ALL
THE CAN VARY WIDELY WITH
REGARDS TO WHO'S TEACHING AND
HOW THEY'RE BE TEST RESULT IS
THAT THEY USE TO HELP. AS WE-
BUT WITH. ONE THE TEACHER AT
SINGLE PRESERVE. EVEN MORE
IMPORTANT IS A THE OF WHAT
WE'RE GETTING A CLASS TO MAKE
THEY CAN ENJOY THE ISSUE THAT
ARE CHIU A FACE AND THE WE CAN
IMPOSE ENOUGH THE IN OF FOR
TEACHER A PROCESS THAT GETS THE
IN A PROCESS THAT CERTIFY THEM
AND THEY COULDN'T TO SUPPORT
THEM AS THEY MOVE FORWARD SO-
AS YOU DO THIS I HOPE THAT IT
IS IN THE BACK OF YOUR MIND
THAT THIS IS NOT THE BE ALL END
ALL. THAT WE HAVE A BIGGER
PROBLEM AND THAT IS BASICALLY A
SYSTEM THAT CERTIFIES OUR
TEACHERS AND THAT WE HAVE SOME
CONFIDENCE THAT WHEN THEY GO IN
A CLASSROOM THEY WILL GET THE
SUPPORT YOU TO BE SUCCESSUL. I
THINK THAT WHATEVER. SEEING NO
OTHER MEMBERS SEEKING
RECOGNITION ON THE ITEM. MISS
CUNNINGHAM YOU MAY CLOSE. THANK
YOU MISTER SPEAKER I
WHOLEHEARTEDLY CONCUR WITH- MY
COLLEAGUE FROM SAN DIEGO'S
COMMENTS- THIS IS NOT THE BE

IS THE STATE- THAT'S A POLICY
IN THAT DIRECTION NEED TO.
ACTION WITH. EXCEPTION OF IS
WHAT I VIEW AS A VERY FIRST
STEP. WHICH IS TO TEMPORARILY
SUSPENDED TESTS THAT HAS MET
NEVER BEEN STUDIED IN THIRTY
SOMETHING YEARS HAS BEEN ON THE

DONE ONE STUDY TO YOU THAT THE
SEA BASS. IS A USEFUL TOOL TO
PREDICT WHETHER YOU. ON A CLASS.
GOT SOMEONE THAT WANTS TO TEACH
FIRST CAN. POTENTIALLY SOME OUT.
ALGEBRA WHICH IS SOMETHING.
THAT THEY- THE NET NEED TO
TEACH A IT IT IT IT DOESN'T
MAKE A WHOLE LOT OF SENSE TO ME
PARTICULARLY IN THIS TIME AND
THIS YEAR BECAUSE A CO OF IT-
PEOPLE CAN EVEN TAKE THIS TEST
IT WASN'T EVEN A MINISTER. SO
YOU KNOW IF IT WERE IT NOT FOR
AN EXECUTIVE ORDER BY THE

BUILDING ALL SURROUNDING AREAS
UNINHABITABLE. OR THE LARGEST
EARTHQUAKE EVER RECORDED IN
CALIFORNIA STRIKES IN SECTIONS
OF HIGHWAY EIGHTY AND FIVE
AIRPORT RUNWAYS HAVE BUCKLED OR
HEAVEN FORBID ANOTHER MORE
DEADLY WORLDWIDE PANDEMIC
UNLIKELY SCENARIOS PERHAPS
IMPOSSIBLE TO IMAGINE. NO
CALIFORNIA THE STATE OF FORTY
MILLION PEOPLE HAS ABSOLUTELY
NO CONTINUITY OF GOVERNMENT
PROVISION IN OUR CONSTITUTION.
SO WHEN WE ARE UNABLE TO SAFELY
PHYSICALLY BE IN THE CAPITAL
THE GOVERNOR OF THE STATE HAS
SEEMINGLY UNLIMITED POWER TO
ISSUE EXECUTIVE ORDERS WITH
ZERO WARNING TO THE LEGISLATIVE
BRANCH WHERE BY THE ELECTED
REPRESENTATIVES OF THE PEOPLE.
HAVE VERY LITTLE OVERSIGHT.
WHILE WE WERE ON A HASTY KOBE
DRIVEN EXTEND A RECESS THE
GOVERNOR ISSUE THIRTY EXECUTIVE
ORDERS. MOST OF WHICH I AGREE
WITH AND I APPLAUD BUT VERY FEW
OF THOSE ORDERS WITH WIDE
RANGING POLICY IMPLICATIONS HAD
ANY MEANINGFUL IMPACT. FROM
THIS LAW MAKING BODY. AS WE'VE
ALL LEARNED DURING THIS
PANDEMIC PEOPLE ARE CHANGING
THE WAY THEY WORK USING
TECHNOLOGY IN A REMOTE FASHION
TO KEEP BUSINESS MOVING. TWENTY
STATES CURRENTLY RED AND BLUE
STATES SO CALLED RED AND BLUE.
ARE USING REMOTE VOTING THEY
HAVE TAKEN THE EXTRAORDINARY
STEP OF LEGISLATING REMOTELY
DURING THIS PANDEMIC. ACA
TWENTY FIVE STATES THAT IN AN
EXTREMELY RARE CASE. WHERE A
STATE OF EMERGENCY IS DECLARED
BY THE GOVERNOR AND OR
PRESIDENT. AND LEGISLATORS ARE
PHYSICALLY UNABLE TO BE SAFELY
PRESENT IN THIS BUILDING. THIS
LEGISLATURE WOULD BE ABLE TO
CONTINUE LEGISLATING A REMOTE
WAY. IF AND ONLY IF. THE VOTE
OF CALIFORNIA AUTHORIZED US TO
DO SO. IF ALLOWED BY THE PEOPLE
OF CALIFORNIA THAT EACH HOUSE
WAS FURTHER ADOPT RULES BY A
TWO THIRDS SUPERMAJORITY VOTE.
DETAILING THE PRECISE MEANS BY
WHICH REMOTE OR PROXY
LEGISLATING WOULD HAPPEN. WITH
PUBLIC ACCESS AND PARTICIPATION
BY THE PUBLIC AS A PARAMOUNT
CONCERN. THERE'S BEEN DATED AND
AN ACCURATE INFORMATION PUT
FORTH BY OPPONENTS OF THIS BILL
REGARDING PUBLIC ACCESS AND
TRANSPARENCY. LET ME BE
ABUNDANTLY CLEAR THERE IS NO
RESTRICTION. ON PUBLIC ACCESS
TO OUR PROCEEDINGS IN
EVERYTHING WE DO EVERYTHING WE
WOULD DO AND STATE OF EMERGENCY
THROUGH REMOTE MEANS. WOULD BE
ALIGNED WITH ANY COMPLIANCE
WITH PROPOSITION FIFTY FOUR.
THE P. AND GOT MAD MEASURE THAT
PASSED WITH 65% OF THE VOTE.

MEMBER I AM GRATEFUL. I
PARTISAN SUPPORT FOR ANYONE

GLARE AT THE MINORITY. WHO UP

ROUNDING UP SUPPORT FROM THE
OTHER SIDE OF THE AISLE.
MEMBERS I ASK FOR YOUR
CONSIDERATION OF THIS LONG
OVERDUE MEASURE THANK YOU.
THANK YOU MISTER MULLIN MISTER
KING YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. THANK
YOU MADAM SPEAKER I'M A PROUD
JOIN AUTHOR OF A CA TWENTY FIVE
I THINK WE KNEW WHAT WOULD
OCCUR WHEN WE WENT ON RECESS
DUE TO THIS COVERT PANDEMIC.
WHEN WE ENDED UP GOING HOME
WORKING WITH OUR CONSTITUENTS
WHAT I WITNESSED WAS ALL THE
LOCAL AGENCIES WHO WERE ABLE TO
CONTINUE TO OPERATE TO LIBERATE
THE CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THOSE
ON BOARD OF SUPERVISORS ARE
COMMUNICATORS BOARDS ARE SCHOOL
BOARDS ARE WATER DISTRICTS. BUT
UNFORTUNATELY WE HAD NO
PROVISION TO BE ABLE TO USE THE
TECHNOLOGY THAT IS AVAILABLE TO
US TODAY TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE
PUBLIC PARTICIPATION BUT ALSO
CONTINUE TO DO THE BUSINESS OF
THE PEOPLE. THIS IS AN
EXTRAORDINARILY IMPORTANT
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT SO
THAT WE CAN CONTINUE TO OPERATE
WE CAN CONTINUE TO MOVE THE
PEOPLE'S HOUSE AND MOVE THE
PEOPLE'S BUSINESS. I WOULD
ARGUE THAT BYMOVING FOR
LEAVING YOU ACTUALLY SAW IT
INCREASING DISAPPEAR YORKSHIRE
SOME MORE PEOPLE WILLING TO OF
BE TO GIVE THEIR OPINION. IS NO
LONGER YOU HAVE TO TAKE OFF
WORK TO GO DOWN TO CITY HALL
WELCOME TO THE CAPITAL AND- SIT
FOR A FEW HOURS TO JUST GIVE A
ONE OR TWO MINUTES COMMENT YOU
COULD DO THAT LINE. YOU COULD.
BEING GAY. STILL DO AT DOING
AWAY AT HOME WERE STILL NOT BE
ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR
FAMILY HOME SO THIS IS SUCH AN
IMPORTANT MEASURE THAT WE CAN
CONTINUE TO OPERATE AND DO OUR
BUSINESS- DURING A PANDEMIC OR
DURING ANY PARTICULAR EMERGENCY
WHERE WE ARE UNABLE TO BE IN
THIS BUILDING WITHOUT A
RESPECTFULLY ASK PRIVATE. THANK
YOU MISTER TANG MISTER COOLEY
YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. COLLEAGUES
ARE VERY PLEASED TO RISE IN
SUPPORT OF THIS MEASURE. IT WAS
PRESENTED LAST WEEK IN THE
ASSEMBLY RULES COMMITTEE THAT'S
WHERE THE MAN WAS TAKEN TO
REMOVE ANY CONFLICT WHATSOEVER
PROPOSITION FIFTY FOUR. AND I
THINK THERE WAS A CONFUSION BY
SOME FOLKS. RAISING QUESTIONS
THINKING THAT BY THIS ACTION WE
WOULD RE WRITE THE RULES
WITHOUT PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT. SO
COURSE THIS IS A PROPOSED
CONSTITUTION MEMBER WILL GO ON
THE BALLOT. AND THE PUBLIC WILL
BE PERMITTED TO WAY AND
ACTUALLY IT IS THEIR VIEW WHICH
WILL BE DISPOSITIVE. OF THIS
POSSIBLE CONSTITUTIONAL
AMENDMENT. I DO WANT TO NOTE
THAT I ACTUALLY THINK TWENTY
TWENTY. IS EXCEPTIONAL TIME TO
PUT A QUESTION LIKE THIS BEFORE
CALIFORNIANS. I THINK THERE ARE
THREE VERY LARGE FACTORS OF THE
WAY INTO THEIR CONSIDERATION.
THAT TWENTY TWENTY ACQUAINT
SOME WITH AN EXCEPTIONAL WAY WE
ALL KNOW THE CHANGE IN
TECHNOLOGY. THAT EVERYONE IS
USING TO A GREATER EXTENT
BECAUSE OF COVERT. SO HAVE
PERSONAL FAMILIARITY WITH HOW
TECHNOLOGY EXTENDS YOUR REACH.
EVEN IN TRYING CIRCUMSTANCES.
THEY HAVE PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE OF
THOSE DISRUPTIONS ASSOCIATE
COVE IN. NINETEEN WHICH WILL
GIVE THEM AN IMMEDIATE FRAME OF
REFERENCE ON THIS QUESTION.
THAT TOO WILL BE A GREAT
ADVANTAGES A COMES BEFORE THE
VOTERS. AND THEN THE THIRD
ELEMENT HONESTLY IS THE ELEMENT
OF PROTEST CURRENTLY COURSE
INTO AMERICAN LIFE. CALIFORNIA
LIFE IT IS A REMINDER THAT
PEOPLE DO WANT ACCOUNTABLE
GOVERNMENT. SO I THINK THESE
THREE ELEMENTS THE FAMILIARITY
WITH TECHNOLOGY THE REALITY OF
DISRUPTION IN THE PRECIOUSNESS
OF OUR AMERICAN HERITAGE OF. OF
SPEAKING TO THE GREAT ISSUES OF
THE DAY WILL BE INTERTWINED IN
THE VOTERS MINDS IS A REVIEW
THIS THIS FALL I REGION I WILL.
THANK YOU MISTER COOLEY MISTER
KILEY YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. THANK
YOU MADAM SPEAKER THIS IS A
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT TO
ESTABLISH REMOTE AND PROXY
VOTING FOR THE FIRST TIME IN
CALIFORNIA AND IT NEEDS TO BE
CONSIDERED AGAINST THE BACKDROP
OF THE CURRENT STATUS OF
REPRESENTATION GEN IN OUR
STATE. BECAUSE BY ANY MEASURE
CALIFORNIA HAS THE LEAST
REPRESENTATIVE LEGISLATURE IN
THE COUNTRY EACH OF US IN THIS
CHAMBER REPRESENTS CLOSE TO A
HALF MILLION PEOPLE ALL
COLLEAGUES IN THE SENATE
REPRESENT CLOSE TO A MILLION
PEOPLE THAT SEVERAL TIMES MORE
THAN ANY OTHER STATE. IN THE
COUNTRY NOT ONLY THAT BUT EVERY
YEAR THIS ASSEMBLY TAKES CONTRA
STEPS TO LIMIT PUBLIC ACCESS
AND TO BECOME LESS TRANSPARENT
BY LEGISLATING POLICY MORE THE
BUDGET PROCESS BY CRAMMING MORE
BILLS INTO A SHORTER WINDOW FOR
COMMITTEE HEARINGS BY IGNORING
PROP FIFTY FOUR TRANSPARENCY
REQUIREMENTS AND PERHAPS MOST
EGREGIOUSLY AT THE BEGINNING OF
THE CURRENT TERM. GETTING RID
OF CHOIR THE BILL EVEN UP TO BE
HURT VOTED ON IT DID YOU CAN
COMMITTEE CHAIRS THE POWER TO
SPIKE LEGISLATION WITHOUT A
HEARING WITHOUT ABOUT WITHOUT
PUBLIC PARTICIPATION. NOW IN
SPITE OF ALL OF THAT. THE WHAT
THERE'S ONE THING THAT KEEPS
THIS A REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY
IN MORE THAN JUST A NAME AND
THAT IS THE SINGLE
UNASSAILABLE. YOU WOULD THINK
IN ALL FOR A BALL FACT OF US AS
REPRESENTATIVES WALKING INTO
THIS ROOM SITTING AT THESE
DESKSPUTTING ALL OUR FINGERS
ON THE BUTTON AND PUTTING OUR
VOTES ON THAT BOARD FOR OUR
CONSTITUENTS AND THE WHOLE
WORLD. SEE AND IF YOU WANT TO
CREATE A STATUTE IN THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA IT HAS TO COME
THROUGH THIS ROOM AND RECEIVE
THE AFFIRMATION OF THE PUBLIC'S
DELEGATES OF THE PUBLIC
DELEGATES THAT IS THE BASIC
ARCHITECTURE OF DEMOCRACY. AND
THIS LEGISLATION PUTS A CRACK
IN. NOW I'M NOT SAYING THAT
REMOTE VOTING. WOULD NEVER BE
WARRANTED UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES. WHAT I'M SAYING
IS IF WE'RE GONNA PUT A CRACK
IN THE INSTITUTION OF
REPRESENTATION WE BETTER HAVE
SAFEGUARDS AND REINFORCEMENT
THAT IS IRON CLAD SO IT DOESN'T
DESTABILIZE THE INSTITUTION
ITSELF OR EVEN BECAUSE THE
WHOLE EDIFICE TO CRUMBLE BUT
THE WAY THIS IS WRITTEN RIGHT
NOW EVEN WITH THE AMENDMENTS.
CREATES THOSE VERY RISKS THE
DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY IS TOO
BROAD IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE
OFFICIALS IN OFFICIAL STATEWIDE
EMERGENCY DECLARED BY THE
GOVERNOR IS LEFT TO THE
DISCRETION OF THE ASSEMBLY IT
ALLOWS FOR NOT JUST REMOTE
VOTING BUT PROXY VOTING WHERE
YOU CAN JUST HAND YOUR VOTER
VOTING BUTTON OFF TO SOMEONE
ELSE AND- SEVERS THE TIED TO
THE ACTUAL REPRESENTATIVE- IN
THE MOBILE DEVELOPING. AND DIED
AT ANY OTHER PREVENT WE ATE
SWAYED BROAD OF A MAN I TO
INVOKE THIS THEN I WOULD LIKE
TO SEE INDEED THERE'S EVEN ONE
PROVISION THAT FOR THE FIRST
TIME WOULD ALLOW THE MEMBERS OF
THE AND TO UP ITS MEMBER UNDER.
BILL SERVE WHICH I THINK IS A
TROUBLING PRECEDENT THIS IS
GOING TO GET A STATE WHERE I
COULD SUPPORT IT IT WOULD NEED
TO BE NOT MUCH NARROWER AND WE
NEED MEAN TO ME THREE
REQUIREMENTS. OF ALL THE STATE
OF THE WITH BE TO BE THE FIVE
TWO COULD ONLY THOSE RIBBONS
THE LEAD. SIMPLY ME. EXACTLY
THERE WERE TO BE A AYE A BETTER
PROCESS. FOR GETTING. ACTUALLY
HOW'RE VOTING WOULD WORK SAID
THE WE'RE GONNA NOT HAVE PROXY
VOTING FOR EXAMPLE WHEN SHOULD
ONLY BE LIMITED TO REMOTE
VOTING. AND THERE WOULD BE A
MUCH CLEARER PROCESS ABOUT HOW
EXACTLY YOU GO ABOUT BRINGING
THESE CONDITIONS I TO A- AND
BRINGING THEM TO AN END AND
THEN FINALLY THERE NEEDS TO BE
A PROCESS WHEN THE LEGISLATURE
RECONVENES. TO EITHER RATIFIED
OR REVERSE WHAT HAPPENED- WELL
THE REMOTE VOTING OCCURRED.
I'LL MAKE ONE FINAL POINT. AND
THAT'S THAT I COULD NOT AGREE
MORE WITH WHAT THE AUTHOR OF
THE BILL SAID REGARDING THE
EXPERIENCE THAT WE'VE JUST HAD.
DURING THE STATE OF EMERGENCY.
WHILE WE WERE AWAY OUR STATE
GOVERNMENT COLLAPSE INTO ONE
PERSON RULE WITH THE GOVERNOR
ISSUING AT THIS POINT FORTY ONE
EXECUTIVE ORDERS. CHANGING OVER
TWO HUNDRED CALIFORNIA LAWS
WITH THE STROKE OF A PEN AND
THE ARGUMENT AS WELL IF WE HAD
REMOTE VOTING THEN MAYBE WE
COULD HAVE BEEN MORE ACTIVELY
IN THE EIGHTIES WE COULD HAVE
BEEN AN EQUAL PARTNER. IN
GETTING OUR STATE THROUGH THIS
CRISIS. WHAT IS THE ISSUE.
WE'RE BACK NOW. WE'RE HERE
WE'RE IN SESSION. AND YET THE
GUY IS STILL ADDED. ISSUING
EXECUTIVE ORDERS THAT YOU SERVE
OUR LARGEST. ONE SECOND. REMOTE
VOTING. IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR
POLITICAL WILL IT'S NOT A
SUBSTITUTE. FOR LEADERSHIP. SO
REGARDLESS OF WHAT HAPPENS WITH
THIS PARTICULAR PIECE OF
LEGISLATION I WOULD CALL ON ALL
OF US. TO LEAD THE WAY IN
BRINGING THE LEGISLATURE BACK
TO BEING A CO EQUAL BRANCH OF
MR STONE TO DISAPPOINT ORDER
I'M SORRY. OKAY I NAY A POINT
OF ORDER THIS HOUSE HAS A FIVE
MINUTE SPEECH LIMIT THAT SPEECH
IS GONNA QUITE A BIT LONGER I
WAS. HOPING TO ASK. THE
PRESIDING OFFICER TO ASK MR
KILEY TO WRAP UP. THANK YOU
MISTER S. DOWN HOWEVER HE DID
HAVE FIFTEEN MORE SECONDS. ON
THE CLOCK WE DO HAVE A TIMER
APPEAR- SO I JUST JAN THIRTY
SECONDS WERE YOU DONE MR KIND
OF CHECK. OKAY THANK YOU. AN MR
GABRIEL YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU MADAM SPEAKER WANTED
TO RISE IN SUPPORT OF THIS SURE
A FEW THOUGHTS FIRST WANT TO
THANK OUR COLLEAGUE- FOR BRING
FOR THIS THOUGHTFUL MEASURE
HE'S BEEN A REAL LEADER ON
THESE TYPES OF ISSUES AND A
REAL ASSET IN CREDIT TO OUR
BODIES SO VERY MUCH APPRECIATE
YOUR OF YOUR LEADERSHIP HERE
AND- RISES A PROUD POST SPONSOR
OF THIS MEASURE. I JUST WANTED
TO MAKE A FEW POINTS ONE I
THINK IS A POINT TO MAKE FOR
THE RECORD WHICH IS THAT- I
IT'S MY OPINION I THINK OPINION
OF A LOT OF FOLKS OF LOOK AT
THE ISSUE THAT REMOTE
LEGISLATING IS CURRENTLY
CONSTITUTIONAL I THINK THAT'S
CLEAR FROM THE LANGUAGE OF
ARTICLES THREE AND FOUR OF THE
CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION. IT'S
CLEAR FROM THE OPINION OF A LOT
OF OUTSIDE EXPERTS INCLUDING
THE CONSTITUTION CENTER UC
BERKELEY THAT IS LOOKED AT THIS
ISSUE A LOT OF THE LAWYERS IN
OUR HOUSE TO LOOK AT THIS THE
CHAIR OF OUR JUDICIARY
COMMITTEE THE CHAIR THE HOUSING
COMMITTEE THE ASSISTANT
MAJORITY LEADER OUR SYSTEM TOM
OTHERS HAVE EXAMINE THIS ISSUE
AND I THINK I'VE TAKEN THE
OPINION I THINK RIGHTFULLY SO
IT'S CONSISTENT ABOUT A HUNDRED
YEARS OF CALIFORNIA SUPREME
COURT PRECEDENT. THAT WE WANT
TO TOMORROW TO WE FROM NOW ON
NOW MEET REMOTELY AND REMOTE
THE TOP PERMISSIBLE OUR
CONSTITUTION NOT IS SAID I
THINK IT'S EXTREMELY PER TAKE
MEASURE TO CLARIFY WHAT THE
SHOULD PROVIDE SOME GABRIELLE'S
IN CYBER. EYES IN SUPPORT OF
THIS AND I THINK IT'S A MUCH
INAPPROPRIATE. I ALSO WANT
REALLY A STATE MY CELL WITH THE
COMMENTS OF OUR CALL. FROM SAN.
I THINK THAT THE TECHNOLOGY
THAT WE HAVE ADOPTED RECENTLY.
HAS REALLY EXPANDED
TRANSPARENCY AND
ACCOUNTABILITY. I THINK IT'S
BROUGHT MORE PEOPLE INTO THE
PROCESS AND I THINK IT'S-
SOMEWHAT TELLING WITH WITH AND
I SAY THIS RESPECTFULLY. BUT
THE PEOPLE WHO ARE OPPOSED TO
THIS ARE THE PAID. PROFESSIONAL
LOBBYISTS IN SACRAMENTO.
BECAUSE WHAT THEY ENJOY UNDER
NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES IS A NEAR
MONPOLY ON THE ABILITY TO COME
TESTIFYING COMMITTEE. AND OURS
ARE CALLING FROM SAN FRANCISCO
NOTED. IT' PRETTY HARD FOR
YOUR- CAL. THEY DON'T LIVE IN
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA TO MAKE IT
UP HERE AT ELEVEN A. I'M ON A
WEDNESDAY TO COME TESTIFY ON AN
ISSUE OF BROAD PUBLIC
IMPORTANCE. BUT WHAT ALL OF US
HAVE SEEN OVER THE PAST COUPLE
WEEKS IS THAT BY USING
TECHNOLOGY. PEOPLE ACROSS THE
STATE CAN CALL IN AND HAVE
THEIR OPINIONS HEARD AND CAN BE
PART OF THE PROCESS SO I THINK
THAT THERE'S A REALLY STRONG
ARGUMENT. AS OUR COLLEAGUE FROM
SAN FRANCISCO MADE VERY
CLEARLY. THIS IS SOMETHING
THAT'S GOING TO INCREASE
ACCOUNTABILITY IT'S GOING TO
INCREASE TRANSPARENCY IT'S
GOING TO START TO PUT YOUR
AVERAGE CITIZEN ON EQUAL
FOOTING WITH PAID LOBBYISTS UP
HERE IN SACRAMENTO. I THINK
IT'S A REALLY WISE AND PRUDENT
AND MEASURE I DON'T REALLY
ENCOURAGE MY COLLEAGUES TO
SUPPORT IT. YOU MISTER GABRIEL
MISTER GRAYSON YOU ARE
RECOGNIZED IN THE REAR CHAMBER.
THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR AND
MEMBERS THE CULMINATING CRISIS
HAS SHOWN US THAT OUR
GOVERNMENT MUST BE ABLE TO
RAPIDLY ADJUST TO EVER EVOLVING
CONDITIONS IN ORDER TO ENSURE
THE WELL BEING OF OUR
CONSTITUENTS. HOWEVER OUR
ABILITY TO TAKE IMMEDIATE STEPS
FOR IMMEDIATE RESPONSES FOR THE
MITIGATION OF THIS PUBLIC
HEALTH CRISIS WAS LIMITED
BECAUSE IT WAS UNSAFE FOR THE
LEGISLATURE TO CONVENE. I
BELIEVE THAT THE INTENT OF A CA
TWENTY FIVE IS TO ALLOW FOR US
AS A LEGISLATIVE BODY TO
CONTINUE OUR WORK IN REAL TIME
DURING A DECLARED STATE OF
EMERGENCY. I WANT TO THANK THE
AUTHOR FOR THE GOOD WORK THAT
YOU AVE DONE AND- THIS I
BELIEVE IS AN APPROPRIATE
MATTER AND I AM PREPARED TO
SUPPORT THIS MEASURE TODAY
HOWEVER. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT
THAT WE STRIKE THE BALANCE OF
SAFEGUARDING THE DEMOCRATIC
PROCESS AND THE RIGHTS OF
PUBLIC PARTICIPATION WHILE WE
DO OUR LEGISLATIVE BUSINESS
THANK YOU. THANK YOU MISTER
GRAYSON MISTER LIVING YOU ARE
RECOGNIZED. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
MADAM CHAIR AND MEMBERS AND
THANK YOU TO THE AUTHOR FOR
BRINGING THIS MEASURE FORWARD
WE'VE TALKED ABOUT. ASSERTING
BRANCHES CO EQUAL BRANCHES OF
GOVERNMENT BUT THIS
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT IS
TRULY ABOUT CONTINUITY OF
GOVERNMENT AND THE STATE'S
GOVERNANCE. WE HAVE A DEADLINE
STARING DOWN BEFORE US- THAT
WERE RACING TOWARD WHICH IS
PASSING THE STATE BUDGET. AND
WITHOUT THE LEGISLATURE WE
CANNOT PASS THE STATE BUDGET WE
CANNOT FIND CRITICAL HEALTH
CARE SOCIAL SERVICES PUBLIC
EDUCATION WITH OUT. THE
LEGISLATURE MEETING AND PASSING
THAT BUDGET AND THIS MEASURE
HELPS MAKE SURE THAT WE CAN DO
THAT THANK YOU. THANK YOU
MISTER LEVIN MISTER BERMAN YOU
ARE RECOGNIZED. THANK YOU MIL
I'M NOT A SPEAKER AND
COLLEAGUES I RISE- IN SUPPORT
OF A CA. TWENTY FIVE TO A
MEMBER- EVERY WOMAN AND MAN IN
THIS ROOM I THINK WAS
INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATED BY THE
EXPERIENCE THAT WE FELT. WHEN
WE WEREN'T ABLE TO COME TO
SACRAMENTO AND DO OUR JOBS AND
A LOT OF US TALK TO EACH OTHER
WE TAXES EACH OTHER WE CALLED
EACH OTHER WE DISCUSSED IN
CAUCUS SOME OF US TWEETED OUR
ANGER AT THE GOVERNOR AND
CONTINUE TO TWEET OUR ANGER AT
THE GOVERNOR. ON A DAILY BASIS-
AND I THINK THERE'S UNANIMOUS
AGREEMENT AT THE FRUSTRATION
AND WHAT WE CAN ROMANTICIZE.
ABOUT WALKING INTO A PHYSICAL
LOCATION AND DOING OUR JOB IN
THAT FIELD PHYSICAL LOCATION.
SOMETIMES OUR ROMANTIC IDEALS
RUN INTO THE HARSH REALITIES OF
TODAY- AND TODAY. THAT WE HAD A
GLOBAL HEALTH PANDEMICS. IN
CALIFORNIA WE HAVE EARTHQUAKES-
THERE ON TOLD- UNANTICIPATED
EMERGENCIES THAT COULD CREATE A
SITUATION WHERE WE CAN'T
PHYSICALLY WALK ONTO A GREEN
CARPET AND PUSH A PHYSICAL
BUTTON TO REPRESENT OUR
CONSTITUENTS BUT IT'S DURING
THOSE TIMES THAT IS SO
IMPORTANT THAT WE DO OUR JOB.
IT'S SO IMPORTANT THAT WE
CONTINUE TO BE THE CO EQUAL
BRANCH OF GOVERNMENT THAT WE
ARE- AND THAT IS WHAT A CA
TWENTY FIVE IS TRYING TO
ACCOMPLISH I WANT TO THANK THE
AUTHOR FROM MY COLLEAGUE FROM
SAN MATTEO. FOR WORKING SO
DILIGENTLY ON THIS ISSUE FOR
WORKING ACROSS THE AISLE
GETTING BIPARTISAN SUPPORT FOR
THIS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT
MEASURE- WE CAN TWEETS WE CAN
RAGE WE CAN YELL BUT AT SOME.
TIME WE HAVE TO DO THE
RESPONSIBLE THING AND
SUPPORTING A CA TWENTY FIVE IS
NOT RESPONSIBLE THING ON CAR
DRIVER. THANK YOU MISTER BERMAN
MISS RIVAS YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU MADAM SPEAKER I RISE
IN SUPPORT OF A CA TWENTY FIVE
I THINK GOING THROUGH THIS
PROCESS OF AMENDING OUR
CONSTITUTION IS THE RIGHT THING
TO DO OTHER STATES HAVE DONE
THIS AND WE LEARNED DURING THIS
PANDEMIC THAT IT'S TIME THAT
CALIFORNIA DOES THE SAME. ALSO
BY GOING THROUGH- A
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT IT
MAKE SURE THAT THE DEBATE OF
WHETHER REMOTE LEGISLATING IS
ALREADY IN THE CONSTITUTION OR
NOT- IT WILL DEFINITELY CLEAR
THAT UP AND I THINK ALL OF US
WILL FEEL CONFIDENT. THAT WE
THIS IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO
AND I'M CONFIDENT TO THAT THE
AUTHOR AND ALL OF US WILL MAKE
SURE THAT EVERYONE CAN
PARTICIPATE. AND SO I AM PROUD
TO SUPPORT THIS BILL TODAY
THANK YOU. THANK YOU MISS RIVAS
MR GALLAGHER YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU MADAM SPEAKER
MEMBERS- I A PRE I DO
APPRECIATE THE AMENDMENTS THAT
HAVE BEEN PUT INTO THIS BILL.
THAT I THINK. MADE THIS
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT-
BETTER BUT I THINK FOR ME THE
REAL ISSUE HERE IS IF THE ISSUE
IS REMOTE VOTING. AND ALLOWING
US TO REMOTE VOTE IN EMERGENCY
CIRCUMSTANCES THEN THAT IS ALL
THIS CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT
SHOULD BE ABOUT. IT SHOULDN'T
HAVE THESE OTHER THINGS IN
THERE LIKE ORIGINALLY. OUT
PUTTING AN OBSTACLE IN THE WAY
OF THE PUBLIC BEING ABLE TO
REDRESS AND PETITION THEIR
GOVERNMENT. IT SHOULDN'T HAVE
BEEN THERE AS IT DOES NOW AS IT
STILL DOES- PROVISIONS THAT
ALLOW FOR- SOME OTHER BODY TO
FILL. SEATS US IF THERE WERE
SOME SORT OF DESTRUCTIVE THING
TO HAPPEN AND WE LOST MANY
MEMBERS OF THIS CHAMBER. I
DON'T THINK THAT ANYBODY ELSE
SHOULD FILL THAT SEAT OTHER
THAN THE PEOPLE THAT THE DOT
SEAT REPRESENTS. THE PEOPLE
THAT WE REPRESENT. AND MAYBE
MOST IMPORTANTLY THAT THIS BILL
THERE'S THIS CONSTITUTIONAL
AMENDMENT ALLOWS FOR PROXY
VOTING AND I'M SORRY BUT EACH
AND EVRY PERSON IN THIS ROOM
IS IMPORTANT FOR THIS ONE
REASON YOU AND ONLY YOU. CAN
REPRESENT. YOUR CONSTITUENTS.
YOU AND ONLY YOU. HAVE BEEN
ENTRUSTED WITH THAT VOTE TO
VOTE ON BEHALF OF THEM AND IF
WE ALLOW PROXY VOTING WEIRS WE
ARE TAKING AWAY FROM THAT
FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLE AND
ALLOWING SOMEONE ELSE TO VOTE
IN THAT SEE WHICH IS NOT WHAT
OUR CONSTITUENTS INTENDED SO IF
THE ISSUE IS ABOUT REMOTE
VOTING THEN LET'S JUST MAKE THE
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT SIMPLY
ABOUT THAT BECAUSE I AGREE WE
SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO MEET.
DURING THIS EMERGENCY WE SHOULD
HAVE HAD THE ABILITY TO REMOTE
IN WE HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY TO DO
IT I AGREE WITH THE MEMBER FROM
FROM THE GREAT SAN FERNANDO
VALLEY- THAT ALREADY
CONSTITUTIONALLY WE PROBABLY
HAVE THAT ABILITY. TO DO THAT-
AND IF THAT'S THE CASE THEN
LET'S JUST DO THAT. RIGHT BUT
ADDING IN THESE OTHER THINGS
ALLOWING SEATS TO BE FILLED BY
SOMEONE WHO'S NOT. THE PEOPLE.
WHO THAT SEAT IS SUPPOSED TO
REPRESENT. AND STILL LEAVING IN
THEIR PROXY VOTING WHICH ALLOW
SOMEONE ELSE TO VOTE ON BEHALF
OF THOSE PEOPLE THAT THEY DID
NOT ELECT REPRESENT THAT'S A
PROBLEM FOR ME AND IF WE CHANGE
THAT IN THEIR HOUSE TO ME
THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF GOOD
DISCUSSION AMONGST MANY PEOPLE.
BUT WE HAVEN'T HAD A FULL
OPPORTUNITY TO REALLY HAVE THE
PUBLIC WEIGH IN ON THIS AND
HAVE DELIBERATION AND I THINK
YOU NEED TO DO THAT ESPECIALLY
WHEN YOU'RE MAKING SIGNIFICANT.
CHANGES SO. THAT IS WHY I CAN'T
SUPPORT THIS MEASURE. AS IT
SITS HERE TODAY AND I THINK WE
SHOULD ALL BE THINKING ABOUT
THOSE. FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES.
AND I WILL AGREE WITH MY
REPRESENTATIVE FROM ROCKLAND.
MY COLLEAGUE FROM ROCKLAND THEY
IT ONLY MATTERS OF THIS CHAMBER
ACTUALLY STEPS UP AND
CHALLENGES THE GOVERNOR WHEN HE
TAKES OVER OUR LEGISLATIVE ROLE
AND HE HAS DONE THAT MANY TIMES
DURING THIS PANDEMIC AND WE'VE
DONE VIRTUALLY NOTHING. WE
DON'T LITTLE BIT COMPLAINED
ABOUT IT. WE DONE VIRTUALLY
NOTHING TO TAKE BACK
LEGISLATIVE POWER THAT HE IS A
SERB FROM US WITH EXECUTIVE
ORDERS. WHETHER YOU'RE DOING IT
REMOTELY. OR WHETHER YOU'RE
DOING IN THIS CHAMBER AT SOME
POINT THIS BODIES GOT A STEP UP
AND SAY THIS IS THE LEGISLATIVE
HOUSE THE LEGISLATIVE POWERS
ARE OURS ALONE. AND NOT THE
GOVERNOR'S AND UNLESS SOMEONE
IS WILLING TO DO THAT IT
DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU'RE-
VOTING REMOTELY ARE NOT. IT'S
THE WILL OF US TO PROTECT THAT
SO DON'T. PUT THIS IS THIS IS
THE ONLY WAY THAT WE CAN.
ASSERT OUR POWER WE HAVE THE
POWER TO DO THAT RIGHT NOW
TODAY. AND I HOPE THAT WE WILL.
THANK YOU MEMBERS THANK YOU
MISTER GALLAGHER MISS WALDRON
YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. THANK YOU
MADAM SPEAKER AND MEMBERS. I
RISE AS JOIN AUTHOR OF A CA
TWENTY FIVE WHICH WOULD ENSURE
CONTINUITY OF GOVERNMENT DURING
TIMES OF DISASTER. AS THE COLD
WITH NINETEEN PANDEMIC HAS MADE
ABUNDANTLY CLEAR OUR
LEGISLATIVE WORK DOES NOT STOP
SIMPLY BECAUSE CIRCUMSTANCES
PREVENT US FROM BEING
PHYSICALLY PRESENT IN THE
CAPITAL IN FACT IN TIMES OF
DISASTER OUR CONSTITUENTS NEED
REPRESENTATION MORE THAN EVER
AND WE SAW THAT SIMPLY HANDING
CONTROL OUR STATE OVER TO THE
GOVERNOR IS NOT THE ONLY
SOLUTION THAT WE CAN HAVE
AVAILABLE TO US. AND IT'S
GLARING FAILURE THAT IS A STATE
THAT LEADS THE WORLD IN
TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATION WE IN
STATE GOVERNMENT HAVE FALLEN SO
WOEFULLY BEHIND THE TIMES ACA
TWENTY FIVE WOULD HELP BRING US
INTO THE TWENTY FIRST CENTURY
WHAT THE WORK CONTINUES
REGARDLESS OF OUTSIDE
CIRCUMSTANCES. I WANT TO MAKE
IT CLEARER THE INTENT OF THE
MEASURE WILL PRESERVE
TRANSPARENCY PUBLIC
PARTICIPATION IN THE
LEGISLATIVE PROCESS THIS IS A
CA DOES NOT PREVENT. OR PLACE
ANY RESTRICTIONS ON THE PUBLIC
PARTICIPATION AND TRANSPARENCY
PROVISIONS GRANTED TO
CALIFORNIANS BY PROP FIFTY FOUR
IN ANY WAY. NOTHING IN THIS ACA
PREVENTS ANY MEMBER OF THE
PUBLIC FROM CONTACTING THEIR
LEGISLATORS OR FOR FROM
PARTICIPATING IN THE
LEGISLATIVE PROCEEDINGS JUST AS
THEY ARE CURRENTLY DOING IN
FACT IT WOULD BE EVEN BETTER.
NOTHING IN THIS A CA ALLOWS
LEGISLATORS TO VOTE OR
GOVERNMENT IN SECRET. IN FACT
THE AUTHOR OF PROPOSITION FIFTY
FOUR SAID THAT RECENT
AMENDMENTS ADDRESS THEIR
CONCERNS. FURTHER THE ABILITY
TO VOTE REMOTELY IS GRANTED
ONLY TO THOSE LEGISLATORS WHO
CANNOT SAFELY GET TO THE
CAPITAL DUE TO A STATE OF
EMERGENCY A DROUGHT FOR EXAMPLE
IS NOT BECAUSE TO ALLOW REMOTE
VOTING UNDER A CA TWENTY FIVE.
FINALLY AND MOST IMPORTANTLY.
THIS MEASURE WILL GO TO THE
VOTERS VOTERS WILL HAVE THE
FINAL SAY BOTH HOUSES MUST THEN
ADOPT IMPLEMENTING RULES TO
SPECIFICALLY DEFINE THE RARE
INSTANCES WHEN THE PROVISIONS
OF THIS MEASURE MAY BE INVOKED.
TO ENSURE CALIFORNIANS NEVER
LOSE THEIR RIGHT TO
REPRESENTATION EVEN IN TIMES OF
EMERGENCY OR DISASTER I URGE AN
AYE VOTE. THANK YOU MISS
WALDRON MISTER MATHIS YOU ARE
RECOGNIZED. THANK YOU MADAM
SPEAKER MEMBERS. YOU KNOW I
THINK WE ALL HAVE MANY CONCERNS.
OVER THIS CONSTITUTIONAL
AMENDMENT. AND I KNOW THE
AUTHOR OF THIS HAS BEEN WORKING
DILIGENTLY. I THINK WE CAN ALL
AGREE WHAT HAS HAPPENED. WITH
THE GOVERNOR ROLLING VIA
EXECUTIVE ORDER AND US FINDING
OUT WHAT HE'S DOING. ON THE
NEWS OR HIS FACEBOOK OR HOWEVER
YOU ALL COTTAGE. IS NOT
ACCEPTABLE. I FEEL THAT THERE
ARE STILL SOME PROVISIONS IN
THIS. THAT NEED WORK. I FEEL
THAT THE PROXY SITUATION IS AN
ISSUE. AND IT IS MY HOPE THAT
AS THIS MOVES THROUGH THE
SENATE THE AUTHOR WILL ADDRESS
THESE THINGS AND TAKE SOME MORE
AMENDMENTS. TO CLEAN THIS UP TO
REALLY TRULY INSURER. THAT THE
VOTERS ARE GETTING THE VOICE
THAT THEY VOTED FOR. AND THAT
THAT POWER REMAINS WITH THEM. I
WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF THE
AUTHOR OF THE BILL WOULD
ADDRESS THOSE- POSSIBLE
AMENDMENTS IN THE SENATE AND
HIS CLOSE. I THINK THAT-
REMOVING THE PROXIES WOULD MAKE
THIS MUCH MORE PALATABLE- X.
SPECIALLY FOR THE VOTERS AS
THIS GOES FORWARD BECAUSE I
DON'T THINK ANYBODY. GOES
THROUGH THE ELECTION PROCESS.
TO SAY OH YEAH SOMETHING
HAPPENED WERE IN ANOTHER
PANDEMIC OR AN EARTHQUAKE OR
WHATEVER. TO HAVE THE PERSON
THEY VOTED FOR NO LONGER BE
ABLE TO BE THERE AND THEN THAT
PERSON BE APPOINTED BY SOMEBODY
ELSE I THINK THAT EEDS
CLARIFICATION. AND HONEST TO
GOD HOPE THAT THAT CHANGES SO
WHEN THIS BILL DOES COME BACK
ON CONCURRENCE FROM THE SENATE.
WE WILL SEE THOSE CHANGES.

OPPOSITION. DEMANDS ARE OF THIS
REQUEST TO INSURE THAT IF AN

MEMBERS I RISE TODAY TO PRESENT
TO YOU A CA FIVE THE CALIFORNIA
ACT ECONOMIC PROSPERITY AND
OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL THIS
MEASURES SEEK TO ALLOW
CALIFORNIA'S EFFORT TO TAKE
MEANINGFUL STEPS TO MINIMIZE
INEQUALITY PREVENT
DISCRIMINATION AND PROMOTE
ECONOMIC FAIRNESS. ACA FIVE
WOULD ALLOW CALIFORNIA VOTERS
TO RESTORE THE CONSIDERATION OF
RACE AND GENDER DIVERSITY AND
PUBLIC CONTRACTING PUBLIC
EMPLOYMENT AND PUBLIC EDUCATION
IN ORDER TO CREATE EQUAL
OPPORTUNITY. THE DAY WE ARE AS
WE LOOK AROUND THE WORLD AND WE
SEE HOW THERE IS AN URGENT
CRIME. AN URGENT CRY FOR
SYSTEMIC CHANGE. THE ONGOING
PANDEMIC AS WELL AS RECENT
TRAGEDIES OF POLICE VIOLENCE IS
FORCING CALIFORNIA'S TO
ACKNOWLEDGE THE DEEP SEATED
INEQUALITY AND FAR REACHING
INSTITUTIONAL FAILURES. THAT
SHOW THAT YOUR OF RACE AND
GENDER STILL MATTERS. AND AT
LEAST PEOPLE WOULD DRAMATICALLY
DIFFERENT RESULTS DEPENDING ON
THE COMBINATION OF THE TWO IN
YOUR LIFE. THE VIRUS IN ITSELF.
DID NOT DISCRIMINATE AND YET WE
SEE THE DISPROPORTION ELEGY OF
HIGH IN TERMS OF HIGH INFECTION
DEATH RATES AMONG AFRICAN
AMERICANS LATINOS NATIVE
AMERICANS AND FILIPINOS. WE SEE
RECORD JOB LOSS CONCENTRATED IN
COMMUNITIES OF COLOR. AND THE
SHATTERING OF WOMEN AND
MINORITY OWNED BUSINESSES
ACROSS THE STATE. AFTER TWENTY
FIVE YEARS OF QUANTITATIVE AND
QUALITATIVE DATA. WE CAN SEE
THAT RACE NEUTRAL SOLUTIONS
COULD NOT FIX PROBLEMS STEEPED
IN RACE. CALIFORNIA'S
REGRESSIVE BAN ON EQUAL
OPPORTUNITY PROGRAMS SUCH AS
AFFIRMATIVE SUCH AS AFFIRMATIVE
ACTION DENIES WOMEN AND PEOPLE
OF COLOR A LEVEL PLAYING FIELD
IN THE WORKPLACE AND IN
EDUCATION. OPPOSITION TO ALL
NINE PASSED IN NINETEEN NINETY
SIX SIEMENS THE GLASS CEILING
FOR WOMEN IN BUSINESS AND
STIFLES EFFORTS TO GET YOUNG
WOMEN TO PURSUE STEM MAJORS. IT
DIVERT IT DIVERTS OVER IT IS
DIVERTED OVER ONE POINT ONE
BILLION DOLLARS OF INVESTMENT
EACH YEAR FOR WOMEN AND BLACK
AND BROWN OWN BUSINESSES.
UNRAVELING THE YEARS OF GROWTH
AND ADVANCEMENT FOR THAT FOR
THESE ENTREPRENEURS. THE BAN ON
RACE CONSCIOUS AND GENDER
CONSCIOUS REMEDIES DO NOT ALLOW
FOR US TO DEAL WITH THE ROOT
CAUSES OF SYSTEMIC FAILURES AND
IT PREVENTS US FROM DESIGNING
EFFECTIVE POLICIES AND
PROGRAMS. TO CORRECT A ONGOING
HISTORY OF BIAS AND EXCLUSION.
CURRENTLY CALIFORNIA'S OUT OF
STEP WITH FORTY TWO OF THE
STATE'S BEING ONLY ONE IN EIGHT
STATES WITH THIS BAND. FOR
THOSE WHO DON'T WANT TO
PARTICIPATE. I DO NOT HAVE TO
HAVE TO TAKE UP THE MANTLE IN
ACT TOWARD RACIAL AND GENDER
EQUALITY. THE REMOVAL TOOL NINE
WOULD NOT BURDEN YOU BECAUSE IT
IT IS PERMISSIVE AND NOT
PRESCRIPTIVE. AND DOES NOT
MANDATE ANYTHING. WHAT THE
LEADERS WHO WANT TO HELP REMEDY
GENDER BIAS AND DISPARITIES.
PROPOSITION TWO HAD NINE IS ALL
HAS ONLY SERVED AS AN
IMPEDIMENT TO ACT ON BEST
PRACTICES ALIGNED WITH THE
UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION. ACA
FIVE WOULD ALLOW CALIFORNIA
VOTERS TO RE VISIT AND EXPRESS
THEIR VIEWS AFTER TWENTY FIVE
YEARS. BOTH THE NEW GENERATION
WHO ARE CALLING FOR CHANGE AND
THOSE WHO RECALL THE
DEVASTATING EFFECTS AND
UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES FOR
BEFORE AND AFTER PROP TWO NINE
WOULD WAS IN EFFECT. ACA IS A
PRIORITY BILL OF THE CALIFORNIA
LEGISLATIVE BLACK CAUCUS THE
LEGISLATIVE WOMEN'S CAUCUS
ISN'T BOARD BACK DOORS BY THE
JEWISH CAUCUS IN THE LGBT
CAUCUS AND PROGRESSIVE CAUCUS.
IT IS IT IS SPONSORED TODAY BY
OVER TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY
ORGANIZATIONS SMALL BUSINESS
OWNERS AND INDIVIDUALS IN
SUPPORT. MEMBERS WITH THE WORLD
WATCHED IN MINNEAPOLIS THE
SYMPTOMS OF A MUCH LARGER
PROBLEM. AND THAT WAS EQUALLY
DISTURBED AS US OFFICE WHO HAD
HIS KNEE ON ON GEORGE FLOOR
FLOOR ITS NECK. WAS OFFICER WHO
STE AND AS WELL AS THE OFFICE
WHO STOOD BY AND WERE COMPLICIT
AND ALLOWED IT TO HAPPEN. EVEN
BLOCKING STAND BUYERS FROM
HELPING. TODAY I ASK THIS
LEGISLATURE. I HOPE IT IS
LEGISLATURE WOULD NO LONGER BE
COMPLICIT IN THE STATUS QUO.
THAT WILL NOT IDLY SIT BACK AND
REST IN GENDER WITH GENDER AND
RACIAL INEQUALITY. AND FURTHER
THAT AT THE VERY LEAST WE WOULD
BE WE WOULD ALLOW CALIFORNIA
VOTERS. TO MAY HAVE THEIR
VOICES HEARD ABOUT THE LACK OF
OPPORTUNITY THE UNJUST AND
UNFAIR SYSTEM AT AND WHETHER
NOT THEY WANT TO UPHOLD
PROPOSITION TOOL NINE. FOR
THESE REASONS I RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR AN AYE VOTE ON A CA
FIVE. FIGURED WEBER THIS RACE
YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. THANK YOU
MISTER SPEAKER MEMBERS I TO
RISE IN SUPPORT OF A CA FIVE.
CALIFORNIA'S INCREDIBLE
ACHIEVEMENTS IT'S A BEACON OF
HOPE AND NEW BEGINNINGS WOULD
NOT BE POSSIBLE WITHOUT TO
DIVERSE CITY. WITHOUT OUR
DIVERSITY WE CANNOT CELEBRATE
THE DIVERSITY OF OUR STATE
WITHOUT ACKNOWLEDGING THAT
MINORITY GROUPS FACE
DISCRIMINATION AND DISPARITIES
STEMMING FROM INSTITUTIONAL AND
SYSTEMIC CHALLENGES.
COMMUNITIES OF COLOR HAVE BEEN
HIT THE HARDEST BY THE CORONA
VIRUS PANDEMIC WITH BOTH THE
ECONOMIC AND HEALTH IMPACTS. AS
THESE COMMUNITIES MOURN HIGHER
RATES OF KOBE INFECTIONS AND
DEATHS THEY ALSO HAVE TO
SIMULTANEOUSLY NAVIGATE HIGHER
UNEMPLOYMENT RATES. IT IS CLEAR
THAT WE DO NOT HAVE AN EQUAL
PLAYING FIELD. BY ALLOWING
CALIFORNIA VOTERS TO REMOVE THE
BAN ON AFFIRMATIVE ACTION AND
ALLOW DENTRE GENDER RACIAL AND
ETHNIC DIVERSITY TO BE
CONSIDERED AS ONE OF THE
FACTORS IN PUBLIC EMPLOYMENT IN
PUBLIC EDUCATION. IF WE DO THAT
WE WORK TOWARDS EQUITY. EQUITY
IS NOT GIVING EVERYBODY THE
SAME RESOURCES IT IS GIVING
EACH PERSON THE APPROPRIATERESOURCES AND OPPORTUNITIES
THEY NEED TO SUCCEED. EQUITY IS
LEVELING THE PLAYING FIELD SO
THAT NO ONE GROUP HAS A HIGHER
RATE OF POVERTY. AND OTHER
NEGATIVE OUTCOMES. UNTIL WE
ACHIEVE EQUITY WE CANNOT TRULY
CELEBRATE THE MANY FACES THAT
MAKE CALIFORNIA EXCEPTIONAL FOR
THESE REASONS I RESPECTFULLY
URGE AND I VOTE. THANK YOU MS
REYES IS GOOD SALAS YOU ARE
RECOGNIZED. THANK YOU MISTER
SPEAKER. I RISE TODAY AS THE
CHAIRWOMAN OF THE LATINO CAUCUS
IN SUPPORT OF REPEALING PROP
TWO OH NINE WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN
UNANIMOUSLY SUPPORTIVE AND OUR
DESIRE TO HAVE THIS PROPOSITION
REPEALS AND THE REASON IS QUITE
SIMPLE IF YOU LOOK AROUND OUR
CAUCUS WE KNEW THAT A VAST
MAJORITY EXCEPT FOR THERE ARE
VERY YOUNG ENDS. WE ALL
BENEFITED FROM AFFIRMATIVE
ACTION. WE KNEW THAT. IN FACT
EVERYBODY ON THIS FLOOR WHO IS
A WOMAN. A PERSON OF COLOR A
NATIVE AMERICAN AND LATINO AND
AFRICAN AMERICAN OF FILIPINO.
IN IS OVER THE AGE OF FORTY.
BENEFITTED FROM THIS PROGRAM
WEATHER WAS YOUR OWN PERSONAL
STORY LIKE MINE HAVING THE
OPPORTUNITY TO ATTEND STANFORD
UNIVERSITY I WAS JUST SOMEBODY
WHO HAD NEVER SET FOOT ON A
COLLEGE CAMPUS COMING FROM A
FAMILY WHO HAD NEVER DREAMED.
THAT THEIR CHILDREN COULD GO ON
TO A SCHOOL LIKE THAT. AND IF
IT WEREN'T FOR THE ABILITY TO
HAVE A SECOND LOOK BECAUSE
DIVERSITY MATTERED. BECAUSE MY
STORY MATTER TO THE ADMISSIONS
OFFICER I WOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN
ABLE TO ATTEND STANFORD TO GO
ON TO PROVE MYSELF AT
GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY AND
EVENTUALLY. GOING TO A FULL
RIDE SCHOLARSHIP AT UCLA LAW
SCHOOL. WHEN I WAS AT THAT
SCHOOL LAW SCHOOL AT MY FIRST
YEAR. THEY REPEAL PROP TWO OH
NINE AND I ALSO SAW WHAT
HAPPENED. TO THE NEXT
GENERATION OF LOS STUDENTS TO
NEXT YEAR OF OS STUDENTS. AND
WE SAW A CLASS GO FROM BEING
INCREDIBLY DIVERSE. COMPLETELY
QUALIFIED. REALLY ROBUST IN OUR
DISCUSSIONS TO ONE THAT LACKED
ALMOST A SINGLE BLACK OR LATINO
STUDENT. IT WAS DEVASTATING NOT
JUST TO THE STUDENTS WHO MAYBE
DIDN'T HAVE THAT OPPORTUNITY
BUT DEVASTATING TO THE ENTIRE
STUDENT BODY THAT DIDN'T HAVE
THE ABILITY TO LEARN FROM EACH
OTHER. SYSTEMATIC RACISM DIDN'T
STOP BECAUSE OF TWO OH NINE.
PEOPLE DON'T STOP BEING.
PREJUDICED THEY DIDN'T STOP
TREATING CHILDREN DIFFERENTLY
WHO CAME FROM OFTEN POOR
COMMUNITIES OF COLOR. TEACHERS
DIDN'T FAMILY THINK THAT YOU
HAD THE SAME ABILITIES AS MAYBE
YOUR UPPER MIDDLE CLASS WHITE
SCHOOL MATE YOU CAN CERTAINLY
GET EXPECTED TO GO INTO HONORS
CLASSES INTO YOUR BEST BECAUSE
PROP TO AND I WAS PULLED BACK.
WE CAN'T CREATE COLOR BLINDNESS.
IT DOESN'T EXIST. AND SO WHAT
WE'VE SEEN OVER THESE
GENERATIONS IS A MISSED
OPPORTUNITY OF SO MANY KIDS. IN
OUR COMMUNITIES WHO HAVEN'T HAD
THE BENEFIT THAT WE ALL HAVE AT.
AND AS A RESULT.WE'RE SEEN.
EVEN INCREASE SYSTEMATIC
RACISM. WHEN PEOPLE DON'T HAVE
THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO TO
COLLEGE AND HAVE THIS DIVERSITY.
EVEN IF YOU'RE WHITE THAT HURTS
YOU TO. IT HURTS THE ENTIRE
PROCESS AND GETS US INTO A
SITUATION QUITE FRANKLY LIKE
WE'RE IN TODAY. I'VE BEEN A-
REALLY FLABBERGASTED BY
EVERYTHING GOING ON I THINK
LIKE WE ALL ARE AND WATCHING
THE FRUSTRATION ESPECIALLY OF
YOUNG PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITIES
OF COLOR REALLY JUST REACHING
OUT TO TRY TO CHANGE THINGS
RIGHT NOW TAKING TO THE
STREETS. AND WE HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO HELP THEM CHANGE
THINGS HERE TO CORRECT A
MISGUIDED SET WE THOUGHT BY
REPEALING ARE ONE FORM OF
EQUITY WHAT WOULD PUT US IN A
BETTER SPOT AND IT HASN'T SO
WE'RE ASKING TO GIVE
OPPORTUNITY EVERYBODY TO ONCE
AGAIN OPEN IT BACK UP. TO
ALLOWS AN OPPORTUNITY. WHETHER
YOU'RE A WOMAN A PERSON OF
COLOR. AN UNDERREPRESENTED
MINORITY TO HAVE THAT TAKEN
INTO ACCOUNT AS ONE OF MANY
FACTORS WHEN YOU'RE QUALIFY
OTHERWISE QUALIFIED TO GET A
GOVERNMENT CONTRACT OR TO GET
INTO A SCHOOL. IT'S IMPORTANT
TO US. AND OUR LATINO CAUCUS IS
PROUD TO STAND SHOULDER TO
SHOULDER WITH OUR BLACK CAUCUS
IN ASKING FOR AN AYE VOTE ON A
CA FIVE. THANK YOU MS
CONSULTANTS GRAYSON YOUR
RECOGNIZE. THANK YOU MISTER
SPEAKER AND CALLING SITE RISES
WELL SUPPORT OF ACA FIVE. IT
DOES NOT TAKE MUCH TO LOOK AT
CURRENT EVENTS AND SEE WHERE
THE NATION IS. THIS IS A NATION
THAT IS GRAPPLING WITH ITS
IMPRESSIVE PAST AND LINGERING
AFFECTS. THE KILLINGS OF GEORGE
FLOYD BRIANNA TAYLOR. AND FAR
TOO MANY MORE HAVE SHOWN. THAT
WE MUST DO MORE TO LIVE UP TO
OUR NATION'S PROMISE OF LIBERTY
AND JUSTICE FOR ALL. I BRING
THIS UP IN THE CONTEXT OF A CA
FIVE. BECAUSE SYSTEMIC RACISM
IS INTERCONNECTED. THE SAME
SYSTEM THAT HAVE ALLOWED FOR
DISPROPORTIONATE POLICING OF
COMMUNITIES OF COLOR HAVE ALSO
ALLOWED FOR COMMUNITIES OF
COLOR AND WOMEN. TO BE LOCKED
OUT OF EDUCATIONAL AND ECONOMIC
OPPORTUNITIES. AS A AS A
LEGISLATIVE BODY. WE SHOULD BE
COMMITTED TO ENSURING EQUAL
OPPORTUNITY. THAT IS LONG LONG
OVERDUE. AND I AM PROUD TO
SUPPORT ACA FIVE A MEASURE THAT
TAKES. A STEP CLOSER TO.
ACHIEVE A FAIR AND JUST
CALIFORNIA. BY PASSING A SIXTY
FIVE WE CAN SEND A CLEAR
MESSAGE THAT CALIFORNIA IS
COMMITTED TO UNDOING DECADES OF
EDUCATIONAL AND ECONOMIC HARM
TO WOMEN. THAT COMMUNITIES OF
COLOR. THIS PROVIDES IMMEDIATE
SUPPORT TO UNDERSERVED
COMMUNITIES BY INCREASING
PUBLIC. IN A PUBLIC EMPLOYMENT
OPPORTUNITIES AND ACCESS TO
QUALITY EDUCATION THAT YOU SEE
IN THIS YOU CAMPUSES. WHILE
THERE IS STILL MUCH WORK TO BE
DONE TO FURTHER ADDRESS
INEQUITIES AND EMPLOYMENT.
WAGES PUBLIC SCHOOL FUNDING AND
R. K. THROUGH TWELVE SYSTEM. AC
FIVE WILL SET US ON THE PATH
TOWARDS EQUALITY AND JUSTICE.
AND I DO CHALLENGE MY
COLLEAGUES TO DO MORE THAN JUST
CAST YOUR VOTE IN FAVOR AND
SUPPORT TODAY. BUT TO ALSO
CHALLENGE TO SHOW UP AND BE
PRESENT IN YOUR COMMUNITIES. SO
THAT NOT ONE CONSTITUENTS IS TO
NOT AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY. TO
SUCCEED. SIMPLY BECAUSE O
THEIR THANK YOU. NAME IS AND
DOCTOR CHOI YOUR RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU SPEAKER AND THE
MEMBERS SAW OF THE ASSEMBLY I
STANDING OPPOSITION OF ALL A.
C. A. FIVE FIRST I WOULD LIKE
TO SAY THAT I HAVE A GREAT THE
RESPECT OF ALL MY COLLEAGUES
ACROSS THE I. L. FOR THE
AMAZING WORK. THAT YOU DO IS
SEND THE EVERYDAY IN THIS A
GREAT STATE. I AM A MINORITY A
PERSON OF COLOR YOU MAY SAY.
LET US BE CLEAR WHAT THE AC
EIGHTY FIVE IS ARE TRYING TO DO
TO DO THAT IS SO REPEALING
PROPOSITION TWO OH NINE.
PROPOSITION TWO OR NINE PASSED
IN NINETEEN NINETY SIX TO END
THIS SPECIAL AND THE
PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT OF WHAT
INDIVIDUAL SO BASED ON THEIR
RACE SEX COLOR ETHNICITY. AND
THE NATIONAL ORIGIN THE ACT OF
WAR GIVING SPECIAL OR
PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT TO
SOMEONE BASED ON THEIR RACE IS
SO RAISES SOME ITSELF. OR ON
THE SEX IS A SUBSYSTEM. JUST
ASK YOURSELF FOUR IS IT RIGHT
TO GIVE US SOMEONE A JOB. JUST
BECAUSE OF THE WHITE WHAT BLACK
OF ONE GREEN WHY ARE YELLOW OR
JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE MALE.
REPEALING PROPOSITION TWO OR
NINE ENACTED A BY THE BORDER
LOS TWENTY FOUR YES OUR GOAL IS
TO REPEAL THE PROHIBITS CHEN OF
A JUDGMENT A BASED ON RACE SEX
COLOR ETHNICITY AND NATIONAL
ORIGIN. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT
THE LEGALIZING RACISM AND
SEXISM. COLLEAGUES ARE I DO NOT
DOUBT WHEN I LEAVE A IN A STATE
TO WHERE THE COLOR OF MY SKIN
OR MY READY SO ONE MAIS SEXO
WERE MINE NATIONAL ORIGIN
DETERMINES ON MY QUALIFICATIONS
SO FOR A POSITION. A JOB POOL
WA ENTERING TOLL COLLEGE. I
CAME HERE TO THIS COUNTRY TO
GET AWAY FROM IDEOLOGIST SELECT
THAT. IT IS SO FOR THOSE
REASONS OF THAT THAT I
RESPECTFULLY ASK OF FOR YOU A
NO VOTE. COLLEAGUES THANK YOU.
THEY ARE CHOI MISTER DAVID CHIU
YOUR RECOGNITION READ CHAMBER.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER
COLLEAGUES TODAY I RISE IN
SUPPORT OF A CA FIVE. IN
NINETEEN SIXTY ONE PRESIDENT
JOHN F. KENNEDY SIGNED THE
FIRST EXECUTIVE ORDER ON
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION. TO ENSURE
THAT AMERICANS ARE TREATED
FAIRLY WHEN IT COMES TO RACE
COLOR. OR NATIONAL ORIGIN. THE
VISION TO REVERSE THE LEGACY OF
PAST RACISM IN THE IMPACT OF
ONGOING DISCRIMINATION. AND I
THINK WE CAN ALL AGREE THAT
IT'S AN UNDERSTATEMENT TO SAY
THAT THAT VISION WAS NEVER
CHEAT. DECADES AFTER HIS
ASSASSINATION AND THE
ASSASSINATION OF CIVIL RIGHTS
LEADERS. RACISM AND
DISCRIMINATION AND THEIR IMPACT
ON INEQUALITY AND POVERTY
CONTINUE TO THIS DAY. DECADES
AFTER THE FIRST MARCHES FOR
CIVIL RIGHTS OUR COMMUNITIES
ARE MARCHING IN THE STREETS TO
DATE AND THOSE SAME WRONGS. NOW
I KNOW THERE'S A LOT THAT'S
GONNA BE SAID ON THIS TOPIC
TODAY SO I'M GOING TO FOCUS ON
THE CONVERSATION AND MY AT THE
COMMUNITY. AS RELATED IN SOME
OF THE ELEVEN THOUSAND EMAILS
I'VE RECEIVED ON THIS TOPIC.
SOME OF THE OPPOSITION WANT YOU
TO BELIEVE THAT ASIAN AMERICANS
UNILATERALLY OPPOSE AFFIRMATIVE
ACTION. THAT IS SIMPLY NOT TRUE.
OVER A HUNDRED ORGANIZATIONS
AND COMMUNITY LEADERS
REPRESENTING HUNDREDS OF
THOUSANDS OF ASIAN AMERICANS
SUPPORT THIS MEASURE SURVEYS
SHOW A MAJORITY OF OUR
COMMUNITY SUPPORT THIS MEASURE
AND WHY. THEY KNOW THAT WHEN
PROPOSITION TWO OH NINE IS
LIFTED. ASIAN AMERICANS WILL
RECEIVE MORE EQUAL
OPPORTUNITIES TO ADVANCE IN
CONTRACTING THE DATA SHOWS THAT
ASIAN AMERICAN BUSINESSES. WHEN
MORE CONTRACTS AND CITIES WITH
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION LIKE A LANA
FOR CHICAGO THEN IN MY CITY OF
SAN FRANCISCO WITH THE OLDEST
ASIAN COMMUNITY IN THE COUNTRY.
IN PUBLIC EMPLOYMENT I. HER ALL
THE TIME THAT MY ASIAN AMERICAN
CONSTITUENTS WANT MORE TEACHERS
WHO LOOK LIKE US MORE
PRINCIPLES UNIVERSITY
PRESIDENTS MORE FIRST
RESPONDERS FIREFIGHTERS BI
LINGUAL POLICE OFFICERS.
CURRENT LAW PREVENTS THAT. AND
FINALLY SOME FACTS ABOUT
EDUCATION FACT. UNIVERSITIES
THE PRACTICE AFFIRMATIVE ACTION
OF SEEN GREATER GAINS IN ASIAN
AMERICAN ENROLLMENT IN SCHOOLS
THAT DON'T. FAX ASIAN ADMISSION
RATES TO THE UC'S INCLUDING THE
GREAT SCHOOLS ARE BERKELEY AND
UCLA HAVE ACTUALLY GONE DOWN
SINCE THE PROP TWO OH NINE BàN
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION. AND ONE
MORE FACT IF ACA FIVE PASSES
THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT
HAS ALREADY RULED THAT
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION CANNOT BE
USED TO SET QUOTAS. I ALSO WANT
TO SAY SOMETHING ABOUT MY OWN
PERSONAL HISTORY. I WOULD NOT
BE STANDING HERE ON THIS FLOOR.
AS THE FIRST ASIAN AMERICAN TO
REPRESENT EASTERN SAN FRANCISCO
BUT FOR AFFIRMATIVE ACTION.
WHEN I WAS NINETEEN. I WAS
ADMITTED TO A PROGRAM TO
ENCOURAGE MINORITY STUDENTS TO
CONSIDER CAREERS IN PUBLIC
POLICY. I WOULD HAVE GOT A
FELLOWSHIP TO GO TO PUBLIC
POLICY SCHOOL AT HARVARD OR PUT
ON THE PATH TO BE WHERE I AM TO
DAY. AND AS OUR COLLEAGUE FROM
SAN DIEGO SAID SO MANY OF US
WOULD NOT BE HERE TODAY. BUT
FOR THESE PROGRAMS. WHEN HEREBY
POINTING OUT ONE THING ABOUT
TODAY'S VOTE. TODAY'S VOTE IS
NOT GOING TO DO WAY WITH PROP
TWO OH NINE TODAY'S VOTE SIMPLY
GIVES CALIFORNIANS THE
OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE THAT
DECISION A QUARTER CENTURY
AFTER PROP TWO ONE NINE WHEN WE
SHOULD ALLOW A NEW GENERATION
OF VOTERS TO DECIDE WHETHER WE
ARE DOING ENOUGH TO IT. TO
ADDRESS THE SPIRITS. VOTERS
SHOULD BE ABLE TO THE SIDE OF
CALIFORNIA SHOULD RUN STEM
CAMPS FOR GIRLS. AND NOT HAVE A
BAND BECAUSE IT CONSIDERS
GENDER. VOTER SHOULD BE ABLE TO
DECIDE IF A POLICE REVIEW
BOARD. SHOULD CONSIDER THE
RACIAL BACKGROUND OF ITS
APPLICANTS AND NOT HAVE A BAND
FOR CONSIDERING RACE. VOTERS
SHOULD BE ABLE TO DECIDE IF WE
CAN A PROGRAMS TO INCREASE THE
NUMBER OF LET NEXT DOCTORS TO
ADDRESS ENORMOUS HEALTH
DISPARITIES. AND VOTER SHOULD
DECIDE IF ASIAN OWNED
BUSINESSES DECIMATED BY COVERT
RACISM SHOULD GET SOME
ASSISTANCE. IF THIS MEASURES
PASSED BY VOTERS IT'S SIMPLY
LIFTS A BAN. BUT WHAT WILL
HAPPEN AFTER NOVEMBER IS THAT
THE PUBLIC. LOCAL STATE
GOVERNMENTS. SCHOOL DISTRICTS
PLEASE ACCOUNTABILITY BOARDS.
CAN GO TO THE PUBLIC AND CAN
WORK ON NEW SOLUTIONS TO MAKE
OUR STATE. A TRUE STATE OF
OPPORTUNITY. IN CLOSING LET ME
ALSO ADMIT THAT I HAD SOME
INITIAL MISGIVINGS ABOUT
WHETHER THIS WAS THE RIGHT TIME
TO MOVE ON THIS MEASURE.
BECAUSE THIS IS A TOUGH
CONVERSATION. BUT LET ME SAY IF
NOT NOW THEN WHEN. IF NOT US
THEN WHO THE TIME IS ALWAYS
RIGHT TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT IT'S
TIME TO DO THE RIGHT THING. I
ASK YOU TO SUPPORT ACA FIVE.
THANK YOU MISTER TO. MS WICKS.
YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. THANK YOU
MISTER SPEAKER AND MEMBERS. I
RISE TODAY IN SUPPORT OF THE CA
FIVE AND COMMEND MY COLLEAGUE
FROM SAN DIEGO FOR TAKING ON
YET ANOTHER RIGHTEOUS FIGHT. AS
MILLIONS OF PEOPLE CONTINUE TO
PROTEST THE MURDER OF GEORGE
FLOYD AND THE CENTURIES OF
OPPRESSION RACISM THAT LED TO
THE LAST EIGHT MINUTES AND
FORTY THREE SECONDS OF HIS LIFE.
IT IS PAST TIME TO ADMIT THE
RACISM HAS INFECTED EVERY
SYSTEM OF THIS NATION.
CALIFORNIA IS NOT IMMUNE FROM
THIS DISEASE OF RACISM YET
SINCE NINETEEN NINETY SIX WITH
THE PASSAGE OF PROP TWO NINE
WE'VE ATTEMPTED TO PUT THE
BLINDERS ON TO THIS
UNCOMFORTABLE TRUTHS. PROP TWO
NINE IS A MANIFESTATION OF OUR
REFUSAL TO ACKNOWLEDGE. THE
DAMAGE THAT SYSTEMIC RACISM
SEXISM HAS CAUSED CALIFORNIANS
OF COLOR. THIS IS MADE EASIER
TO BE SHOCKED- ME SEE
DISCRIMINATION FIRSTHAND
WHETHER IT'S AS A MICROGRAPHS
IN PUBLIC HATE SPEECH ONLINE
ONE UNARMED BLACK PERSON BEING
MURDERED BY POLICE IN THE
STREETS. THE FIRST STEP TO
CURING THE DEEPLY ROOTED RACISM
DISEASE OF RACISM IS BY
DIAGNOSING IT AND REJECTING
FAULTY TREATMENTS LIKE PROP TWO
OH NINE. THAT PROMISE RESULTS
SUCH AS COLOR BLIND CALIFORNIA
DOES NOT SEE RACE. THE REALITY
IS THAT PROP TWO NINE WAS NOT A
CURE ALL. FOR DISCRIMINATION IN
FACT THE MEASURE WAS A
REGRESSIVE CHANGE TO OUR STATE
CONSTITUTION THAT DECIMATED
CALIFORNIA'S ABILITY TO FIGHT
DISCRIMINATION. SINCE PROP TWO
NINE PASSED WOMEN AND PEOPLE OF
COLOR HAVE LOST BILLIONS OF
DOLLARS IN ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY
IN STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT
CONTRACTS. THERE'S BEEN
DRAMATIC AT THERE'S BEEN
DRAMATIC DECREASES IN ADMISSION
RATES FOR STUDENTS OF COLOR IN
THE UC SYSTEM. AND WOMEN HAVE
CONTINUED TO BE PAID LESS THAN
MEN A WAGE GOT THAT IS EVEN
WORSE FOR WOMEN OF COLOR. WELL
A CA FIVE WILL NOT REMEDY ALL
THE ILLS CAUSEWAY RACISM AND
SEXISM IN CALIFORNIA. IT IS A
HUGE LEAP FORWARD. THE WILL OUR
STATE TO PROACTIVELY FIGHT THEM.
THIS WILL REDUCE RACE CONSCIOUS
PROGRAMS THIS WILL INCLUDE RACE
CONSCIOUS PROGRAMS THAT MEET
THE NEEDS OF EVERY COMMUNITY BY
TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE FULL
BREADTH OF PEOPLE'S
EXPERIENCES. WHICH ARE SHAPED
BY THE SYSTEMIC RACISM AND
SEXISM THE PREVENTS EQUAL
OPPORTUNITY. REPEALING PROP TWO
NINE IS NOT ABOUT SETTING
QUOTAS. IT'S ABOUT CREATING
OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL. THAT
STARTS WITH RECOGNIZING THAT
THE BARRIERS SYSTEMIC RACISM
AND SEXISM CREATE SUPPORTING
PROGRAMS THAT HELP PEOPLE
OVERCOME THESE OBSTACLES I
WORKING TO PARMALEE DISMANTLE
THEM. WE CANNOT HAVE COLLECTIVE
SUCCESS WITHOUT SHARED

SPEAKER I RISE THIS AFTERNOON
ON BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA
LEGISLATIVE LGBT Q. CAUCUS IN
SUPPORT OF A CA FIVE. I WANT TO
TAKE MY GREAT COLLEAGUE FROM
SAN DIEGO FOR HER LEADERSHIP IN
BRINGING THIS LEGISLATION
FORWARD. I'D LIKE TO BELIEVE
MEMBERS THAT ALL OF US ARE
MINDFUL OF THE STATE OF OUR
NATION. AND THE CONVERSATIONS
WE HAD IN OUR COMMUNITIES.
FUNDAMENTALLY THE CHALLENGE
BEING FACED IS THE STRUCTURE OF
THIS NATION FROM ITS LAWS TO
ITS OPPORTUNITIES HAVE BEEN
RIGGED AGAINST COMMUNITIES OF
COLOR AND UNDER REPRESENTED
POPULATIONS. WHAT WE'RE
SPEAKING OUT AGAINST RIGHT NOW
IS NOT ONLY POLICING. THAT'S
JUST THE START. IF THE SYSTEMIC
AND HISTORIC LACK OF ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT INVESTMENT AN
OPPORTUNITY IN AND FOR
COMMUNITIES OF COLOR AND LET'S
BE VERY CLEAR. PROPOSITION TWO
OH NINE HAS CONTRIBUTED TO THIS
SAD HISTORY. MEMBERS IT'S NOT
THAT COMMUNITIES HAVE BEEN LEFT
BEHIND THEY START BEHIND. IT
HAS PREVENTED EQUITABLE
OPPORTUNITY FOR BLACK AND BROWN
BUSINESSES FOR WOMEN IN BLACK
AND BROWN PEOPLE IN PUBLIC
CONTRACTING PUBLIC EMPLOYMENT
AND PUBLIC EDUCATION FOR
DECADES. IT'S OUT OF DATE IT'S
OUT OF SYNC WITH WHO WE ARE AS
CALIFORNIANS IT DOES NOT HELP
US BUILD THE CALIFORNIANS FOR
ALL THAT WE SHOW UP HERE EACH
EIGHT TO WORK TO CREATE. IT'S
TIME THAT WE ARE THE VOTERS OF
CALIFORNIA TO RECONSIDER ITS
DECISION. IT'S FINALLY TIME TO
UNDO THIS INJUSTICE IN ADVANCE
REAL RACIAL AND GENDER EQUITY
HERE IN CALIFORNIA. MEMBERS
WHEN I WAS YOUNG. MY PARENTS
SAT ME DOWN AND EXPLAINED TO ME
THE SUMMER WITH THIS COMPLEXION
HAS TO WORK TWICE AS HARD. TO
GET JUST AS FAR. THE QUESTION
THAT WE SHOULDASK OURSELVES IS
WHY IS THAT. WHY SHOULD THAT
STAND PARTICULARLY IN THE
GOLDEN STATE. HI HUMBLY SUGGEST
YOU THE ANSWER IS THAT IT JUST
SHOULD NOT WE CAN DO SOMETHING
ABOUT THAT AND JUSTICE HERE
TODAY. SO I STAND HERE IS THE
VICE CHAIR OF THE CALIFORNIA
LGBT Q. CAUCUS IN SOLIDARITY
WITH THE BLACK CAUCUS. IN
ASKING THIS BODY TAKE THIS STEP
TO FINALLY GIVE WOMEN AND
PEOPLE OF COLOR IN THIS STATE.
A GREATER SHOT AT SUCCESS OF
THAT CALIFORNIA DREAM I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOU EITHER.
THANK YOU MISS GLORIA. MISS THE
MARK YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. MISTER
SPEAKER. I RISE IN SUPPORT OF
ACA FIVE WHICH IS A PRIORITY
BILL FOR THE CALIFORNIA
LEGISLATIVE WOMEN'S CAUCUS.
WE'RE LIVING THROUGH
UNPRECEDENTED TIMES THE
PANDEMIC COUPLED WITH
ACTIVITIES THROUGHOUT THE STATE
IN THE NATION CALL ON TO AND-
THE MANY VOICES THAT FOR
DECADES HAVE GONE ON HEARD. AS
WE HE'LL PICK UP THE PIECES WE
MUST WRK TO MAKE OUR COMMUNITY
STATE AND NATION BETTER THAN IT
WAS BEFORE THE PANDEMIC. THE
CONVERSATION THAT BRINGS US
HERE TODAY IS ONE THAT WILL
ALLOW THE MANY VOICES IN
CALIFORNIA TO WEIGH IN ON WHERE
WE WANT TO FALL ON ECONOMIC
OPPORTUNITIES FOR MINORITIES.
IF YOU ARE WOMEN BETWEEN THE
AGES OF FORTY AND SEVENTY
THREE. AFFIRMATIVE ACTION
APPLIED TO YOU. YOU BENEFITTED
FROM AFFIRMATIVE ACTION. AC
FIVE GIVE CALIFORNIA VOTERS AN
OPPORTUNITY TO RECONSIDER AND
POTENTIALLY REPEAL PROPOSITION
TWO OH NINE THROUGH THE BALLOT
INITIATIVE WELL WOMEN
ENTREPRENEURS ARE FLOURISHING
NATIONALLY HERE IN CALIFORNIA
WOMEN OWNED BUSINESSES ARE NOT
GETTING THEIR FAIR SHARE OF
OPPORTUNITIES. CALIFORNIA IS
HOME TO THE GREATEST NUMBER OF
WOMEN OWNED BUSINESSES IN THE
NATION WITH ABOUT ONE POINT
FIVE FIVE MILLION WOMEN OWNED
FIRMS EMPLOYING MORE THAN ONE
MILLION PEOPLE AND GENERATING A
COMBINED ANNUAL REVENUE OF
TWENTY TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY
FIVE POINT FIVE BILLION DOLLARS.
AND YET. A TWO THOUSAND AND
FIFTEEN STUDY SHOWS THAT
BUSINESS OWNED BY BUSINESSES
OWNED BY WOMEN AND PEOPLE OF
COLOR LOSE ONE POINT ONE
BILLION. ANNUALLY IN GOVERNMENT
CONTRACTS. 60% OF ALL AMERICANS
THAT HAVE LOST THEIR JOBS
DURING THE KOBE NINETEEN
PANDEMIC ARE WOMEN. ACA FIVE
WOULD ALLOW FOR A CONVERSATION
AND HOW WE LEVEL THE PLAYING
FIELD FOR WOMEN AND MINORITIES
GIVING A VOICE TO THOSE WHO
HAVE NOT BEEN AWARDED
GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS AND STATE
HIRING TO ENSURE THAT
GOVERNMENT SOLUTION SPUR
ECONOMIC GROWTH AND WILL HELP.
ALL MEMBERS A KID OR OF OUR
COMMUNITY INCLUDING THE MOST
VULNERABLE. BY EXPANDING JOB
OPPORTUNITIES FOR WOMEN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA TAKES A
CRITICAL STEP IN CLOSING THE
GENDER GAP. WOMEN MAKE EIGHTY
ONE CENTS FOR EVERY DOLLAR
EARNED BY MEN. IT IS NO SECRET
THAT THE WAGE GAP IS EVEN WIDER
FOR WOMEN OF COLOR. BLACK WOMEN
MAKE SIXTY TWO CENTS TO THE
DOLLAR FOR A WHITE MAN AND
LATINOS MAKE FIFTY FOUR CENTS
TO THE DOLLAR. WITH EIGHTY FIVE
WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO
UNLOCK CALIFORNIA'S ECONOMIC
POTENTIAL AN OPPORTUNITY THAT
CANNOT AND SHOULD NOT BE MISSED.
REALIZING THE ECONOMIC
POTENTIAL OF WOMEN OWNED
BUSINESSES REQUIRES CHANGING
POLICIES BUSINESS PRACTICES AND
ATTITUDES. THIS IS WHY THE
CALIFORNIA LEGISLATIVE WOMEN'S
CAUCUS VOTED TO MAKE AC FIVE A
PRIORITY BILL FOR US THIS YEAR
AND ALLOWING CALIFORNIANS TO
WAIT IN ON ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY
FOR ALL. THANK YOU MISS AMOUNT
MR GABRIEL. YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER I TO
RISE TODAY IN SUPPORT OF A CA
FIVE AS VICE CHAIR OF THE
CALIFORNIA LEGISLATIVE JEWISH
CAUCUS. OUR CAUCUS HAS VOTED TO
SUPPORT ACA FIVE WE THINK IT'S
AN EXTRAORDINARILY IMPORTANT
MEASURE. I ALSO WANT TO THANK
MY COLLEAGUE FROM SAN DIEGO FOR
BEING. SUCH A MORAL VOICE IN
THIS BODY AND FOR BRINGING
FORWARD THIS THIS IMPORTANT
PIECE OF LEGISLATION. THE
CALIFORNIA LEGISLATIVE JURORS
CAUCUS SUPPORTS THIS BILL. FOR
A VARIETY OF REASONS BUT FIRST
AND FOREMOST BECAUSE IT IS
DEEPLY ROOTED IN OUR VALUES OUR
TRADITION TEACHES US TO VALUE
JUSTICE. TO VALUE EQUITY TO
VALUE HUMAN DIGNITY TO VALUE
PROTECTING THE VULNERABLE SO
THIS IS A PIECE OF LEGISLATION
IS VERY CONSISTENT WITH WHO WE
ARE. AND HOW WE DEFINE
OURSELVES AS A COMMUNITY.
THERE'S ALSO FIRMLY ROOTED IN
OUR HISTORIC SUPPORT FOR THE
CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT. I CAN
TELL YOU THERE'S A DIVERSITY OF
OPINIONS ON MANY THINGS IN THE
JEWISH COMMUNITY. THE ONE THING
THAT IS BROADLY SHARED IN OUR
COMMUNITY IS THE PRIDE THAT WE
FELT THAT SO MANY RABBIS. SO
MANY YOUNG PEOPLE WHEN IT
SUPPORTED THE CIVIL RIGHTS
MOVEMENT. NURSING KNOWLEDGE
MINT IN OUR COMMUNITY THAT THAT
THE STRUGGLE THE STILL RIGHTS
MOVEMENT IS SO FAR FROM
FINISHED. AND SO WE WANT TO
CONTINUE TO BE PART OF THE
SOLUTION AND STAND. IN
SOLIDARITY WITH THE BLACK
COMMUNITY WITH OTHER
COMMUNITIES OF COLOR AND WITH
WOMEN IS THEY CAN CONTINUE TO
ST STRIVE TO. EQUALITY ONE
RESPECTFULLY SUGGEST TO SOME OF
MY COLLEAGUES WHO MIGHT NOT BE
INCLINED TO SUPPORT THIS THAT.
I ACTUALLY THINK IT SHOULD BE
HOPEFULLY IT'S AN EASY VOTE FOR
A LOT OF FOLKS TODAY. BECAUSE
IRRESPECTIVE OF HOW YOU FEEL
ABOUT THE POLICY I HOPE THAT
YOU RECOGNIZE THAT WE ARE IN AN
EXTRAORDINARY MOMENT. IN
HISTORY RIGHT NOW. AN
UNPRECEDENTED MOMENT WE HAVE
WITNESSED PROTESTS. ACROSS THIS
COUNTRY. OFTEN IN PLACES WHERE
WE WOULD NOT EXPECT THEM. WHERE
PEOPLE AND PARTICULARLY YOUNG
PEOPLE ARE DEMANDING. NOT JUST
JUSTICE FOR GEORGE FLOYD. THE
DEMANDING SYSTEMIC CHANGE. THE
DEMANDING SO SOME EXCHANGE AND
MY- COLLEAGUE AND I FROM HOW
ALSO WERE TALKING LAST NIGHT
ABOUT THE FACT. THAT ANYONE WHO
IS UNDER THE AGE OF FORTY ONE
HAS NOT HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO
WEIGH IN ON THIS ISSUE. THAT
THEY ARE THAT OUR GENERATION
HAS NOT HAD THE OPPORTUNITY. TO
SPEAK TO THIS AND TO HAVE A
CONVERSATION ABOUT IT IT'S
BEEN. A QUARTER OF A CENTURY
SINCE VOTERS WERE GIVEN THE
OPPORTUNITY. I RESPECTFULLY
SUGGEST THAT OUR GENERATION.
I'M THIRTY EIGHT A COLLEAGUE I
THINK IS A IS APPROACHING FORTY
WERE NOT THAT YOUNG- OUR-
GENERATION. HAS A DIFFERENT
PERSPECTIVE ON THINGS. AND I
THINK. THAT WE HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO WEIGH IN ON THIS
ISSUE. THAT LEFT OUR YOUNG
PEOPLE IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA AND ALL PEOPLE IN
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA. THE
OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE THIS
CONVERSATION. I THINK AT THIS
MOMENT IN TIME. I THINK DEMAND.
FOR CHIU THIS. THE DEMAND FOR
OFFICE. CHANGE THAT WE ARE
WITNESSING FOR PEOPLE A- THIS
COUNTRY. BE EXTRAORDINARILY
SHORT SIGHTED ABBAS AND I THINK
I WOULD SUGGEST. REALLY TONE
DEAF. FOR US NOT TO PERMIT
VOTERS HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO
WEIGH ON ON THIS. AT THE SAME
TIME OUT ALSO. THAT THIS IS A
CHEN. AND COMPLEX ISSUE FOR A
LOT OF PEOPLE. BECAUSE IT
REQUIRES US TO BE HONEST ABOUT
SOME PARTS OF OUR HISTORY THAT
ARE HARD TO THINK ABOUT.
REQUIRES US TO BE HONEST ABOUT
HOW BADLY THE SYSTEM IS RIGGED
IN THIS COUNTRY. I'M A WHEN I
HAVE CONVERSATIONS WITH FOLKS
ABOUT THESE ISSUES OFTENTIMES
PEOPLE SAY WELL WHAT ABOUT
ECONOMIC AFFIRMATIVE ACTION.
WHY CAN'T WE JUST FOCUS ON ON
POVERTY IN THERE THERE'S MERIT
TO THAT BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT
POVERTY IS A REAL ISSUE. BUT WE
ALSO KNOW THAT RACE AND GENDER
MATTER. WE KNOW THAT BECAUSE
STUDY AFTER STUDY HAS
DEMONSTRATED THAT THERE ARE
DIFFERENT OUTCOMES FOR PEOPLE
BASED ON RACE AND GENDER IN
EDUCATION AND HEALTH AND JOB
OPPORTUNITIES IN THE WAY THAT
THEY LIVE THEIR LIVES. IN AND
THAT IS SOMETHING THAT WE NEED
TO BE HONEST ABOUT. IT ALSO
IGNORES HIS. IGNORES THE FACT
THAT THERE HAVE BEEN CENTURIES
OF SAYS OF SYSTEMIC RACIAL
INJUSTICE THAT HAVE BEEN
EMBEDDED IN SO MANY PARTS OF
OUR PUBLIC POLICY IN THIS
COUNTRY. IN EDUCATION IN ZONING
AND HOUSING AND IT'S SO MANY
DIFFERENT WAYS AND SO MANY
DIFFERENT. FACETS OF OUR PUBLIC
POLICY WE HAVE SEEN THINGS THAT
HAVE SYSTEMATICALLY
DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES OF
COLOR AND WOMEN. AND THE OTHER
THING THAT I WOULD SUGGEST ALL
OF US WHEN YOU'RE THINKING
ABOUT THIS IS THAT I THINK ALL
OF US KNOW IN OUR HEARTS. THE
RACE AND GENDER MATTER. I DON'T
THINK THAT THERE'S A PERSON IN
HERE WHO WOULD WOULD DISPUTE
THAT AT THE END OF THE DAY
THESE ARE THINGS THAT THAT
IMPACT US AND THAT THE IMPACT
ON THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA THIS
VERY DAY. AND SO FOR THOSE
REASONS I WOULD RESPECTFULLY
SUGGEST TO MY COLLEAGUES THAT
THIS IS A REALLY REALLY
IMPORTANT VOTE. AND TO THOSE
WHO MIGHT THINK THAT. IS THAT.
THAT AFFIRMATIVE ACTION. IS
SOMETHING THAT ZERO SUM MIGHT
OFFER. I OFTEN ALTERNATE
PERSPECTIVE. BUT THIS IS
ACTUALLY. WHEN I THINK A LOT
ABOUT THE- THE SEMINAL SUPREME
COURT CASES FROM THE EARLY TWO
THOUSANDS ABOUT ABOUT
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION IN PUBLIC
HIGHER EDUCATION AND THE FACT
THAT SOME OF THE STRONGEST AND
MOST PERSUASIVE ARGUMENTS THAT
WERE ULTIMATELY CITED IN
JUSTICE O'CONNOR'S OPINION CAME
FROM THE MILITARY. THE SECOND
IS COMMUNITY THAT IS WAITING IN
SUPPORT OF AFFIRMATIVE ACTION
BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT IT'S A
IT'S A CENTRAL TO OUR
COMPETITIVENESS OF OUR
BUSINESSES TO THE STRENGTH OF
OUR MILITARY AND SO I WOULD
SUGGEST EVERYBODY THAT
EVERYBODY WILL BENEFIT FROM
THIS WE WILL HAVE A SOCIETY
THAT STREET THAT FREE- THAT'S
HEALTHIER AND STRONGER.
WEALTHIER THAT'S MORE COHESIVE
THE MORE EQUITABLE AND MARCH
STE LOSS OF A SOCIETY THAT'S
BRAVE ENOUGH TO BE HONEST ABOUT
HOW BADLY THIS SYSTEM IS RIGGED
AND BRAVE ENOUGH TO DO
SOMETHING ABOUT THAT AND I
THINK THAT'S A BEAUTIFUL GIFT
FOR US IF TO OUR CHILDREN AND
RESPECTFULLY REQUEST AN IBM.
THANK WAS GABRIEL MS
BOERNER HORVATH. NEXT THANK YOU
MISTER SPEAKER MEMBERS I WANT
TO ECHO- MY SUPPORT FOR A CA
FIVE OF MY COLLEAGUES HAVE
SHARED WITH YOU. BUT I WANT TO
SHARE PERSONAL STORY. IN MARCH
A FIFTH GRADE CLASS FOR MY
DISTRICT CAME TO THE CAPITOL TO
ADVOCATE FOR EQUITY NOT JUST
EQUALITY. AND THE PRESUMPTION
BE TO BEHIND AFFIRMATIVE ACTION
IS TO CREATE AN OPTION FOR
THOSE LEADERS WHO WANT TO FIGHT
THE HISTORIC GENDER AND RACIAL
BIAS. AND CREATE A LEVEL
PLAYING FIELD. EQUITY AC FIVE
IS ONE STEP IN THAT DIRECTION
IT GIVES THE VOTERS OF
CALIFORNIA THE OPPORTUNITY TO
HAVE THEIR VOICE HEARD.
ESPECIALLY OUR YOUNG PEOPLE WHO
COULDN'T VOTE TWO DECADES AGO.
WHICH IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT
GIVEN THE CURRENT NATIONAL
DISCOURSE. I THINK OF THOSE
FIFTH GRADERS CAN UNDERSTAND
EQUITY WE CAN'T TO I ORDERED
YOUR SUPPORT OF A FEW FIVE.
THANK YOU THIS BOERNER HORVATH
MR STONE YOUR RECOGNIZE. I'M AN
ENDING SEXISM AND THAT'S NEVER
WHAT IT WAS ABOUT. AB TWO OH
NINE WAS ABOUT PRESERVING
PRIVILEGE AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT TODAY FOR SOMEONE
TO SAY I AM COLOR BLIND WHAT
THEY'RE BLIND TO IS THEIR OWN
PRIVILEGE. WHAT THEIR BLINDS TO
IS THE BENEFIT AND THE
RESILIENCE IN THE BEAUTY OF
CULTURES THEY'RE NOT
NECESSARILY FAMILIAR WITH.
MEMBERS IF WE STOP TALKING
ABOUT GENDER. SEXISM WHEN. IF
WE STOP TALKING ABOUT RACE.
RACISM WITH THAT'S WHAT PROP
TWO OH NINE IS ABOUT AND
ANYTHING ELSE. IS THAT LIVE. IT
IS TIME WE AND THAT WHY IT IS
TIME WE STAND UP TO THOSE WHO
HAVE HAD PRIVILEGE. AND USE
THAT PRIVILEGE TO KEEP OTHER
PEOPLE DOWN. AND AWAY FROM THAT
PRIVILEGE ACA FIVE IS A STEP IN
THAT DIRECTION AND IF WE CAN'T
COMPLETELY REPEAL PROP TWO OH
NINE. IF WE CAN'T COMPLETELY
REPEAL THE LAWS THAT HAVE BUILT
SYSTEMIC RACISM AND SEXISM INTO
MOST EVERYTHING THAT WE DO WITH
OUR INSTITUTIONS. THEN WE HAVE
A LOT MORE WORK TO DO THAT JUST
A CA FIVE THIS IS A STEP WE CAN
TAKE THIS IS FOREVER ALL OF US
WHO HAVE BEEN OUT TO THE
PROTESTS AND SHOWN SOLIDARITY.
THAT'S ONE THING THIS IS WHERE
WE CAN SHOW THAT THERE'S MORE
THAN JUST. LIP SERVICE TO THIS
ISSUE THAT WE CAN START TO
REALLY ADDRESS RACISM SEXISM AT
ITS CORE WE HAVE TO PASS A-
MISTER KALRA. YOUR RECOGNIZE.
AN MEMBERS OF MY RISE IN.
SUPPORT OF AC FIVE AND HOPE
THAT WE CAN PUT TO THE VOTERS
THE OPPORTUNITY TO JOIN FORTY
TWO OTHER STATES IN ALLOWING
FOR AFFIRMATIVE ACTION ONCE
AGAIN. AND ESPECIALLY IF YOU
LOOK AT. THE LAST FEW WEEKS IN
PARTICULAR- IF WE'RE GOING TO
STAND WITH OUR BLACK SISTERS
AND BROTHERS IN THE STREETS AND
CLAIM THE BLACK LIVES MATTER.
YEAH JUST DO THAT WITH WORDS WE
ACTUALLY HAVE TO TAKE CONCRETE
STEPS. THAT ACTUALLY CAN PROVE
THAT WE MEAN IT. IF WE'RE GOING
TO BE MARCHING WITH WOMEN OR
LAMENTING THE GENDER PAY GAP.
WE CAN'T SIMPLY JUST OUR HANDS
UP. AND EXCEPT FOR A FACT. THAT
THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS IN
OUR COUNTRY OR OUR STATE. IF
WHAT WHAT WE'RE GONNA MORE THE
STAINS OUR HISTORY BUT THE
CHINESE EXCLUSION ACT OR
JAPANESE INTERMENT WE HAVE
UNDERSTAND THE CONTEXT UNDER
WHICH THOSE HORRORS OF KURT OR
FOR GOING TO CELEBRATE THE
FIRST ASIAN AMERICAN SICK
AMERICAN INDIAN AMERICAN
CONGRESS NUMBER DOLLOP SING
SONG. WE HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT
BACK IN THE FIFTIES AND SIXTIES
HE WAS OF PURE SUPPORTER OF THE
NINETEEN FIFTY SEVEN CIVIL
RIGHTS ACT. HE WAS A STRONG
SUPPORTER OF MEXICAN IMMIGRANTS
AND FARMWORKERS. AND HE DROPPED
TO THE CONSTITUTIONAL HE WORKED
TO DROP A CONSTITUTIONAL
AMENDMENT. DECLARING THE
QUALITY OF THE RIGHTS OF MEN
AND WOMEN. WHAT HE KNEW SIXTY
YEARS AGO IS WHAT WE STILL KNOW
TODAY THE WE HAVE TO BE
INTENTIONAL AND ROOTING OUT
RACISM AND SEXISM THIS IS NOT
ABOUT LEGALIZING RACISM AND
SEXISM AS ONE OF OUR COLLEAGUE
SAID. IT'S ACTUALLY QUITE THE
OPPOSITE IS BUT RECOGNIZING
THAT RACISM AND SEXISM EXISTS
AND IT'S OUR DUTY TO DO WE'VE
NEVER WEEKEND TO ROOT IT OUT.
NOW MY FAMILY CAME HERE IN
NINETEEN SEVENTY EIGHT. WE
WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO
COME HERE IF IT WASN'T FOR THE
CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT AND
THAT'S A FACT. AND WE CAN COUNT
MANY MANY THOUSANDS OF
FAMILIES- API FAMILIES. WITH
THAT SAME SCENARIO THAT OF A
WASN'T FOR THOSE THAT GAVE
THEIR LIFE GIVE THEIR BLOOD. IN
THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT WE
WOULDN'T BE HERE. SO HE FACT
THAT. THIS COUNTRY WAS FOUNDED.
AND BECAME A GLOBAL SUPERPOWER
ON THE FOUNDATION OF STORM LAND
A STONE LABOR IS NOT A MATTER
THAT IS RELEGATED TO CHAPTERS
IN DUSTY HISTORY BOOKS IT
ACTUALLY RUNS THROUGH THE VEINS
OF OUR NATION THIS DAY AND TO
ALL OF US. WE MUST ACKNOWLEDGE.
THE REALITY THAT RACE MATTERS.
AND THAT THE LONGER WE DENY IT
AND THE LONGER WE TAKE ACTION
ON IT THE LONGER IT'S GOING TO
TAKE FOR US TO REACH THE
PROMISE. OF OUR GREAT NATION.
WE AT THE RECOGNIZE THE REALITY
THAT GENDER MATTERS AND WE NEED
TO BE HONEST AND INTENTIONALLY
THAT REALIZATION SO THAT WE MAY
SOME DAY HAVE CHIU EQUAL
OPPORTUNITY FOR WOMEN AND AS
OTHER COLLEAGUES OFSAID THE
DATA IS VOLUMINOUS. IT'S AS
CLEAR AS DAY THAT WE HAVE IN
OUR SOCIETY. BY NO FAULT OF AN
INDIVIDUAL BUT JUST BASED UPON.
OUR COMMON SHARE HISTORY. WE
HAVE BARRIERS THAT ARE PUT UP
STRICTLY BECAUSE OF ONE GENDER
AND RACE. AND RIGHT NOW WHAT
WE'RE SEEING AROUND THE WORLD
ARE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE RISING
UP BECAUSE THEY KNOW NOT ONLY
THAT IT'S WRONG BUT THEY WANT
TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. AND
SO WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO
ALLOW THE VOTERS. TO GET IT
RIGHT. AND TO STAND UP FOR
RACIAL JUSTICE FOR GENDER
JUSTICE THE STAND UP FOR
EQUALITY AND WHAT WORDS ON
PAPER DO YOU MUST TO BE AS
AMERICANS. WE NEED TO KEEP
FIGHTING FOR IT AND I URGE YOU
JUST TO VOTE I ON A CA FIVE SO
WE CAN FIGHT TOGETHER. THANKS
CALLER MISTER COOLEY IN THE
REAR CHAMBER. COLLEAGUES I'M
HERE TO SUPPORT ACA FIVE. AND
PERMISSION TO READ EVER SO
BRIEFLY WITHOUT OBJECTION. I
HAVE HERE THE CLOSING LINES OF
THE GETTYSBURG ADDRESS. I WANT
TO OFFER A LITTLE REFLECTION
UPON. IT IS RATHER FOR US TO BE
HERE DEDICATED. TO THE GREAT
TASK REMAINING BEFORE US THAT
FROM THESE HONORED DEAD WE TAKE
INCREASED DEVOTION TO THAT
CAUSE. FOR WHICH THEY HERE GAVE
THE LAST FULL MEASURE OF
DEVOTION. THAT WE HERE HIGHLY
RESOLVE THAT THESE DEAD SHALL
NOT HAVE DIED IN VAIN. THAT
THIS NATION UNDER GOD. SHALL
HAVE A NEW BIRTH OF FREEDOM.
AND THE GOVERNMENT OF THE
PEOPLE BY THE PEOPLE FOR THE
PEOPLE SHALL NOT PERISH FROM
THE EARTH. TO REFLECT UPON THIS
I THINK IS SO MANY THOUGHTS
COME TO MIND. ABRAHAM LINCOLN
WAS A SPARRING FOR NEW BIRTH OF
FREEDOM. FOR OUR NATION TO
ENTER INTO A DIFFERENT QUALITY.
OF ITS UNDERSTAND OF WHAT
FREEDOM MEANT. THAT WAS WHAT HE
SAW BEFORE US. HE SAW THIS AS
SOMETHING THAT WAS AN EXTENSION
OF THE WORK AND THE- SACRIFICE
IT PRECEDED IT. HE SAW IT AS
SOMETHING THAT WAS FOUNDED IN
THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA. I HAVE
THE UTMOST REGARD FOR THIS
CAPITAL IN THIS CHAMBER. BUT
THE MEANING OF AMERICA WILL NOT
BE SETTLED HERE. IT WILL BE
SETTLED IN THE HEARTS OF
AMERICANS IT'LL BE SETTLED IN
THE HEARTS OF CALIFORNIANS. I
THINK ACA FIVE. COMING AS IT
DOES IN THIS YEAR. WHEN WE HAVE
SEEN SO MUCH DIVISION. REALLY
PRESENTS A PLEBISCITE. AN
OPPORTUNITY TO GO BEFORE
CALIFORNIANS AND SAY WHAT IS
THE NATURE OF OUR DEMOCRACY
WHAT IS THE EXTENT TO WHICH ANY
ONE INDIVIDUAL. CAN CELEBRATE
AND HARBOR HOPE FOR ANOTHER WHO
MAY BE DIFFERENT FROM NOW. YOU
KNOW THERE CANNOT BE DEMOCRACY
IF THERE IS NOT COMPASSION. IF
THERE IS NOT EMPATHY. FOR
PEOPLE IN THE CIRCUMSTANCES
THEY FIND THEMSELVES IN. I
THINK THAT THE WHOLE MILIEU OF
SOCIAL MEDIA. ACTUALLY HAS THE
BENEFICIAL EFFECT OF
CONFRONTING EVERYONE WITH A
DIFFERENT LIVES UPON REAL LIFE.
SO I THINK THIS IS A
OUTSTANDING TIME TWENTY TWENTY.
TO REACH OUT TO ALL CALIFORNIA
SAY SEARCH YOUR HEART. WHAT IS
THE MEANING OF AMERICAN
DEMOCRACY WHAT IS THE MEANING
OF CALIFORNIA MARK PERCY. CAN I
CELEBRATE AN OPPORTUNITY
CONFERRED UPON SOMEBODY WHO IS
FACE BURDENS. YOU KNOW IT WAS
JOHN DUNN WHO LIVED IN THE
FIFTEEN HUNDREDS SERVED IN THE
PARLIAMENT. WHO SAID NO MAN IS
AN ISLAND COMPUTER TO ITSELF.
IF A CLOD FALLS AWAY EUROPE IS
DIMINISHED. DON'T ASK FOR WHOM
THE BELL TOLLS IT TOLLS FOR
THEE. THIS NOTION THAT WE. IF
WE ARE PARTISAN TO BURN
OURSELVES. WE'RE ALL IN IT
TOGETHER. SO I SORT OF VIEW
THIS AS A VERY IMPORTANT
OPPORTUNITY I WILL SAY FOR MY
WHOLE CAREER. THE MOST
IMPORTANT QUOTE ON LEADERSHIP
I'VE EVER HEARD WAS AGAIN NAMED
MICHELLE ROO. WHO SAID THE JOB
LEADERS NOT TO CHALLENGE PEOPLE.
DON'T BE RATE PEOPLE DON'T WEB
ON PEOPLE. THE JOB LEADERS NOT
TO CHALLENGE PEOPLE BUT TO GET
THEM TO CHALLENGE THEMSELVES I
THINK ACA FIVE IN A VERY
FUNDAMENTAL DEMOCRATIC WAY IN
KEEPING WITH THE GETTYSBURG
ADDRESS REFLECTION UPON A
MARKER SEE THAT ABRAHAM LINCOLN
PROVIDED IS NOT TRUE FOR PEOPLE
ASIDE WHAT IS IT CARE FOR
CALIFORNIA MARK PERCY AMERICAN
DEMOCRACY I THINK IT IS A VERY
FITTING QUESTION TO BRING FOR
DOUBLE WRIST. AT THIS TIME.
MUCH LIKE. THE OTHER ACA WE
DISCUSSED I THINK THIS IS THE
YEAR TO BRING FOR THIS
QUESTION. AND ASK ALL
CALIFORNIANS TO REFLECT UPON
THE MEANING OF CALIFORNIA
DEMOCRACY. THANK WAS COOLEY
MISTER SANTIAGO. YOU ARE
RECOGNIZED. THANK YOU MISTER
SPEAKER I WANT TO THANK OUR
COLLEAGUES OFFERED FOR THE- FOR
THE CONSIDERATION OF THE BILL.
ACA FIVE AS ASSEMBLY EQUALITY
IT'S ABOUT TAKING A STEP IN THE
RIGHT DIRECTION. TO BRING US
JUSTICE. AND QUITE FRANKLY IT'S
A VERY MODEST THAT. ALL THIS
SAYS ANALYTICAL OF MY
COLLEAGUES A SAID LET THE
VOTERS DECIDE. THIS IS NOT THE
SAME CALIFORNIA THAT VOTED ON
THIS ABOUT TWENTY FIVE YEARS
AGO BECAUSE I'LL REMIND YOU
ABOUT THE CALIFORNIA THERE
VOTED ABOUT A TWENTY FIVE YEARS
AGO. THEY PASSED PROPOSITIONS.
THAT ATTACKED OUR LANGUAGE.
THEY PASSED PROPOSITIONS THAT
ATTACKED IMMIGRANTS. A PAST
PROPOSITIONS THAT ATTACKED OUR
OPPORTUNITIES BUT THE THING
CALIFORNIA TODAY AND ALL WE'RE
SAYING IS LET THE VOTERS DECIDE
TODAY. AND ALTHOUGH IT'S A
MODEST. YOU DON'T HAVE AN
IMPACT ON GENERATIONS TO COME
IT'S A LITTLE TO NOT TODAY WE
DENY GENERATION THAT
OPPORTUNITY. WHEN YOU THINK
ABOUT OPPORTUNITY. YEAH YOU
HAVE TO THINK ABOUT. HOW KIDS
ARE RAISED. AND I'LL BE GOOD
BREAK INTO A VERY VERY SIMPLE.
SIMPLE STORY WHICH IS MY STORE
AND IT'S NOT UNIQUE. MOST OF US
HERE WHO ARE OF COLOR OR WOMEN.
HAVE BENEFITTED FROM
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION MANY MANY OF
YOU SHARE SIMILAR STORIES. IF
YOUR PARENTS CAN'T CAME HERE
FROM A DIFFERENT COUNTRY AND
THEY WORK EXTREMELY HARD.
WASN'T MY CHOICE TO BE BORN
POOR. IT WASN'T MY CHOICE THE
BE BORN AND NOT UNDERSTAND A
LANGUAGE. WASN'T MY CHOICE TO
LIVE IN SECTION EIGHT HOUSING.
WASN'T MY CHOICE TO WORK FULL
TIME- WHILE I WAS IN COLLEGE.
THE DID I GET THE BEST GRADES
IN THAT I GET A FOUR POINT
THREE AND DIE SLAM DUNK IT IN
THE IN THE UCLA RIGHT AFTER
HIGH SCHOOL. COURSE NOT. THEY
TAKE ME A LONG TIME. LIKE IT
TOOK OTHERS TO GET THE
COMMUNITY COLLEGE OF COURSE.
PROBABLY LONGER THAN IT SHOULD.
FIVE SIX YEARS ON LIKE THAT.
BUT THIS IS THE REALITY. WHEN
YOU HAVE TO WORK AND YOU HAVE
TO HELP YOUR PARENTS MAKE RENT
NO ONE CHOOSES THAT. SO THIS
WHOLE IDEA. AND I'M NOT SAYING
ANYONE IS THAT IT. BUT THIS
WHOLE IDEA AT THE TIME. THAT
CERTAIN KIDS ONE QUALIFIED THAT
EVERYBODY SHOULD BE EQUAL AND
THAT RE SHOULDN'T MATTER WILL
IT DOES. BECAUSE THE ZIP CODE
THAT YOU WERE BORN IN
DETERMINES WHERE YOU'RE GOING
TO GO. AND IT'S NOT COINCIDENCE
THAT THE ZIP CODE YOU ARE BORN
IN OFTENTIMES REFLECTS WHAT YOU
LOOK LIKE THAT'S NOT A SECRET.
IF YOU GREW UP IN THE
NEIGHBORHOOD THAT I REPRESENT.
MORE THAN LIKELY YOU'LL BE
LOOKING. IF YOU GO UP IN
CERTAIN AREAS WITHOUT THE LATE
MORE THAN LIKELY YOU COULD BE
AFRICAN AMERICAN. AND WE'RE
GONNA HAVE A HARDER TIME
GETTING. SOME OF YOU I'VE HAD
THIS CONVERSATION WITH BUT I
NEVER REALLY SHARED PUBLICLY.
YOU KNOW WHAT WHEN I WENT TO
COMMUNITY COLLEGE YEAH I
STRUGGLED. NIGHTFALL ONE EIGHTY
SEVEN AND WE THOUGHT ONE
PROPOSITION AND IT WAS FOR THIS
HEARTENING TO KNOW. THAT NO
MATTER HOW HARD I TRIED. I JUST
DIDN'T HAVE THE TIME TO STUDY I
DIDN'T HAVE THE TIME TO BE
POLITICALLY ACTIVE. I COULD DO
THOSE THINGS. AND WHEN APPLIED
TO UCLA MY ONE DREAM. MY ONE
DREAM NICE TO SAY WHEN I WAS A
KID MY ONE WAY TO GET OUT OF
THE HOOD. TO GET EDUCATION. BUT
I WAS THE NIGHT. I WAS DENIED
BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE THE
GRADES. AND I WAS HEARTBROKEN.
IT ALMOST DESTROYED MY LIFE I
THINK THAT THE ONE OPPORTUNITY
THAT I COULD HAVE TO HELP MY
PARENTS GET A SECTION EIGHT
HOUSING. GET MY LITTLE BROTHER
NOT PER TUTTI. WITH THE NIGHT
BECAUSE INSTEAD OF STUDYING I
HAD TO GO TO WORK. AND INSTEAD
OF A RECREATIONAL SUMMER
VACATIONS. WE PICKED THE BAXTER
JOBS. SO I APPEALED. AND THAT
IS EXACTLY THE CASE THAT I MADE
THE UCLA. WITH A OOK I WOULD
LOVE TO GO HOME AND STUDY IN A
PIE WITH A GOT A FOUR POINT
THREE. BUT I COULDN'T. THIRTY
SECONDS AND BECAUSE OF
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION. AND BECAUSE
CONSIDERATION WHERE I CAME FROM.
WHAT I LOOK LIKE THE LANGUAGE I
SPOKE I GOT IN. I WAS ABLE TO
GRADUATE. MEGHAN COLLIDED AND
IT WAS NEVER IT WAS NEVER ABOUT
QUALIFICATIONS IT WAS NEVER
ABOUT THE ABILITY. BUT HE GAVE
ME AN OPPORTUNITY LIKE HE GAVE
MANY OF US. IN THAT'S THE
OPPORTUNITY. THAT THAT WE'RE
GONNA GIVE GENERATIONS. A
PEOPLE OF COLOR. WOMEN AND
WE'RE GONNA CHANGE THE STATE IT
WILL HAVE A DRAMATIC IMPACT ON
WHO GOES TO THESE INSTITUTIONS
OF HIGHER LEARNING. AND WHO HAD
WHO HAS A SAY. IN THE COME UP
THE WHAT WHEN THEY BECOME
DOCTORS ATTORNEYS LEGISLATORS
BECAUSE WE GOT AN OPPORTUNITY
AND WE WILL NOT WASTE THAT
OPPORTUNITY I CAN GUARANTEE.
BECAUSE WE KNEW HOW HARD IT WAS
TO GET HERE. AND WE'RE WILL DO
ALL WE CAN. TO MAKE IT EASIER
AND PROVIDE MORE OPPORTUNITIES

OUR ALLIES WERE SUPPORTING THIS

IT IN TAKING A STAND. FOR EACH
AND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF OUR
COMMUNITIES. YOU CAN BE HERE
TODAY THANK YOU. DECORAH
SANTIAGO MISTER JONES SAWYER
YOU ARE RECOGNIZED THANK YOU
MISTER SPEAKER AS A MEMBER OF
THE CALIFORNIA LEGISLATIVE
BLACK CAUCUS AS CHAIR OF THE
PROGRESSIVE CAUCUS. I JUST WANT
TO SPEAK IN FAVOR OF ACA FIVE
BUT MOST IMPORTANT. ABOUT THE
HORRORS OF THE PREMATURE REPEAL
OF AFFIRMATIVE ACTION IN
NINETEEN NINETY SIX WHICH IS A
LEFTY EXPERIENCE OF BLACK AND
LATINO PEOPLE. OUT OF THE
EQUATION FOR THE SAKE OF A
COLOR BLIND WORLD THAT HAS
NEVER EXISTED IN THIS COUNTRY
BUT WE ALL KNOW IT HAS. WELL MY
UNCLE WALKED UP THE STEPS OF
LITTLE ROCK CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL
IN NINETEEN FIFTY SEVEN IT WAS
BECAUSE OF HIS BLACKNESS THAT
THE SUPREME COURT. TO RULE THAT
HE BE ALLOWED ACCESS TO THE
SAME SCHOOLS AS WHITES STUDENTS.
HIS SKIN COLOR IN DOVER
THEREFORE HIS HUMANITY BY THE
VERY REASON HE HAD THE RIGHT TO
INTEGRATE INTO A SCHOOL WITH
MORE RESOURCES THERE WHERE HE
WAS BORN. IN MY DISTRICT WHICH
HAS 95% OF THE RESIDENTS EITHER
BEING LATINO OR AFRICAN
AMERICAN. AC EIGHT FIVE
DIRECTLY IMPACTS AND BENEFIT
THOSE IN MY DISTRICT BY
PROCLAIMING THEIR BACKGROUND.
AND EXPERIENCES MATTER AND
SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FOR PUBLIC
HIRING AND ADMISSION PURPOSES.
REALLY DO NOT LIVE IN A COLOR
BLIND SOCIETY SO IT IS TIME
THAT WE STOP ACTING LIKE IT.
WHEN I WAS DIRECTOR REAL ESTATE
FOR THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES. I
WOULD TELL MY STAFF WE WOULD
HAVE AN AUCTION TO SELL CITY
PROPERTY. THAT WE NEEDED TO
ADVERTISE IN THE PAPERS AFTER
AMERICAN LATINO FILIPINO
JAPANESE. AND THE FIRST AUCTION
THAT I WAS OVER THEY NEVER
ADVERTISED IN THOSE COMMUNITIES
THEY ADVERTISE IN A
PREDOMINATELY WHITE NEWSPAPERS.
AND WHEN I BROUGHT THEM INTO MY
OFFICE. ALL WHITE MALES. THEY
TOLD ME BECAUSE OF THE PROP TWO
OH NINE THE FACT THAT THEY
DIDN'T HAVE TO FOLLOW ANY
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION POLICIES
THEY DID NOT HAVE TO ADVERTISE
IN THOSE COMMUNITIES. AND
BESIDES. THEY CAN'T AFFORD IT.
AFTER I CALMED DOWN. I MADE IT
VERY CLEAR FROM AN ECONOMIC
STANDPOINT THAT YOU'RE LEAVING
OUT INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE THE
CAPACITY TO PAY MORE FOR THE
POOR THOSE PROPERTIES THEN THE
PEOPLE YOU BELIEVE IN AND THAT
YOU ARE GOING TO ADVERTISE IN
THOSE PAPERS. SO I FORCED AND I
NOTICE HOW READ THEIR FACES GOT
AND HOW ANGRY THEY GOT. THE
NEXT AUCTION WE HEAD. I WAS SO
HAPPY. THAT THE HIGHEST PRICE
FOR A PROPERTY IN THAT AUCTION.
WENT TO A MEMBER OF THE LATINO
COMMUNITY WHICH FURTHER PROVE
TO ME AND TELL THEM THAT YOU
NEED TO INCLUDE EVERYONE. BUT
THE OTHER THING THAT I ALSO
REALIZED WHY HE WAS SO ANGRY.
WHY THEY WERE SO ANGRY. THEY
DIDN'T NEVER THOUGHT IN THEIR
CAREERS. THAT THEY WOULD HAVE A
BLACK MAN TELLING THEM WHAT TO
DO. AND IN FACT I WAS PROBABLY
THE WORST NIGHTMARE. IN FACT
WHEN I SCORED NUMBER ONE ON THE
TEST TO BE THEIR BOSS. OTHERS
WERE TRYING TO UNDERMINE THAT
BY PICKING SOMEONE A WHITE MALE
FOR THAT POSITION EVEN THOUGH
HE HAD NOT. PASS THE TEST.
LUCKILY FOR ME. THE GENERAL
MANAGER OF THE DEPARTMENT SAID
WE'RE GOING TO GO WITH. THE
NUMBER ONE CANDIDATE. AND I
BELIEVE LUCKILY FOR ME THE
GENERAL MANAGER WAS AN AFRICAN
AMERICAN MALE. WHO WAS
APPOINTED BY AN AFRICAN
AMERICAN MAYOR. SO MAYOR TOM
BRADLEY. APPOINTED MY GENERAL
MANAGER HE WAS ELECTED NOT IN
THE SEVENTIES. YOU POINT AT MY
GENERAL MANAGERS IN THE
NINETIES. AND THEN I WAS
BROUGHT ON. IN THE YEAR TWO
THOUSAND. IT WAS TO TRY TECH TO
OF NIGHTMARES OF NIGHTMARES FOR
ANY RACES IN ANY. COMMUNITY OR
ANY INFRASTRUCTURE BUT MORE
IMPORTANT ANY BUREAUCRACY LIKE
THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES. I WAS
ABLE TO BREAK UP. THE RACISM
WITHIN THE DEPARTMENT. BY BEING
NUMBER ONE ON THE TEST BY
STAYING TRUE TO MY NATURE BUT
MOST IMPORTANT MAKING SHORT DID
NOT DID NOT GO ALONG TO GET
ALONG OR TO PERPETUATE THE WORD
RACISM WITHIN MY DEPARTMENT AND
DOING WHAT I'M SUPPOSED TO DO.
ON THE LEGACY THAT I STAND ON
ON THE SHOULDERS THAT I STAND
ON TO MAKE SURE THAT NEVER
HAPPENS AGAIN. THE REPEAL OF
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION. WAS
TERRIBLE WE HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO LET THE VOTERS
DECIDE. THE MISTAKE THAT WE
MADE BECAUSE I VOTER DURING
THAT TIME AND I VOTED AGAINST
IT EVEN GOT. THE MAYOR OF LOS
ANGELES WHEN I WAS ASSISTANT
DEPUTY MAYOR. TO VOTE DOWN THE
REPEAL OF AFFIRMATIVE ACTION
THIRTY SECONDS SO WE ALL HAVE A
STAKE IN THIS. AND WE ALL HAVE
RIGHT NOW A BOAT IN THIS WE ALL
HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO CORRECT
A WRONG. ONE MEMBER AT A TIME
ONE PERSON AT A AT A TIME. SO
THAT THIS BECOMES A BETTER
WORLD AND THANK GOD HOPEFULLY
HOPEFULLY WE NEVER SEE WHAT'S
HAPPENING IN THE STREETS AGAIN
BECAUSE WE'VE NOW MOVED. WE
MOVED THE AGENDA TO A BETTER
PLACE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU
MISTER JONES SAWYER MISTER
MAIENSCHEIN YOUR RECOGNIZE.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH MISTER
SPEAKER I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE
ARE SOME PEOPLE WHO ARE MORE
COMFORTABLE OPPOSING A CA FIVE
BASED ON AN ASSERTION THAT RACE
DOESN'T MATTER BUT FACTS ARE
FACTS WHEN IT COMES TO
EDUCATION JOBS SCHOOLS CRIMINAL
JUSTICE AND HOMEOWNERSHIP.
AFRICAN AMERICANS PEOPLE OF
COLOR AND WOMEN HAVE SUFFERED
DISCRIMINATION. ACA FIVE WILL
ALLOW CALIFORNIANS TO VOTE TO
HELP END THIS DISCRIMINATION
RACE DOES MATTER I'M VOTING YES
ON THIS MEASURE THANK YOU.
THANK YOU MISTER MAIENSCHEIN.
MS CRISTINA GARCIA HERE
RECOGNIZE THANK YOU I READ
THROUGH THE PORT OF EIGHTY FIVE
I TWENTY FIVE YEARS AGO LIKE
WITH THE DETAILS OUT THERE
PROTESTING AS MAKING PHONE
CALLS ALL TALKING AND DOORS
AGAINST FIVE TWO ONE NINE AND
MY ARGUMENT THEN IS THE SAME AS
IT IS TODAY. UP TO A NINE IS
ABOUT PUSHING A FALSE
NARRATIVE. THAT WE HAVE AN
EQUITABLE EQUAL SYSTEM. SO
CALLED NEGATIVE THAT PEOPLE OF
COLOR AND WOMEN ARE IN FULL
CHARGE OF THEIR FAITH. BUT WE
KNOW THAT IF YOU'RE BLACK OR
BROWN IF YOU'RE A WOMAN. NO
MORE LIKELY TO BE POOR MORE
LIKELY TO LIVE IN POLLUTION. I
WOULD LIKE TO HAVE ON TRAIN
TEACHERS. ARE MORE LIKELY TO BE
INCARCERATED OR TO THEIR WHICH
REALLY. AND THE LIST GOES ON.
THIS FALSE NARRATIVE ALSO
IMPLIES THAT WE FAIL TO SIXTY.
BECAUSE WE DON'T TRY HARD
ENOUGH. BECAUSE THIS IS THE
REWARDS HARD WORK EQUALLY. WE
ALSO NOTICED A SMALL. THE
REALITY IS THAT THE SYSTEM IS
MADE TO MAKE BROWN AND BLACK
PEOPLE FEEL MORE OFTEN THAN
NOT. AND IT'S AMERICA SOME OF
THOSE DO HAVE MOBILITY. BUT
WHEN WE DO THAT MOBILITY IS
USED TO PRESERVE ALTERNATIVE.
THAT WE WORK HARD ENOUGH WE CAN
MAKE IT AND WE CAN BE A SUCCESS.
THE REALITY IS THAT BEING A
TOKEN. IS FAR FROM BEING AN
EQUAL VOICE. AFFIRMATIVE ACTION
IS THAT ABOUT PREVENTIVE
TREATMENT. IT'S ABOUT A
KNOWLEDGE IN THAT THE SYSTEM IS
AN EQUAL. THAT WE HAVE A SYSTEM
OF INSTITUTIONAL RACISM AND
SEXISM. THAT MAKES IT MUCH
HARDER. MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR
US I COULD DO EVERYTHING RIGHT
IN BECAUSE I'M A WOMAN AND A
WOMAN OF COLOR IS LIKELY NOT TO
BE ENOUGH. EASY ADVISED
OPPORTUNITIES THAT AGAINST THE
SMALL OF NARRATIVE. IN TO BE AN
ALLY IN THE KNOWLEDGE THAT THIS
IS THE MOST ANYTHING BUT FAIR.
WE HAVE TO DO ALL WE CAN TO
ENSURE WE HAVE INCREASED AT
THE- TOP OF OPPORTUNITY FOR
PEOPLE OF COLOR AND WOMEN. AND
MAYBE CLEARLY HAVE THAT
OPPORTUNITY NOT ONLY DO WE RISE
TO THE OCCASION BUT WE NEED
BECAUSE WE'VE BEEN TAUGHT TO
BE. TWICE AS GOOD FOR D. SANTA
FOR GOOD. AND SO I HOPE THAT
TODAY WE HAVE CORRECT AND
JUSTICE THAT WAS THE TWENTY
FIVE YEARS AGO AT THE BALLOT.
IN IS NOT ENOUGH TO VOTE YES ON
THE CA FIVE. WILL BE ON YOUR
DISTRICT YOU CAMPAIGN BETWEEN
NOW AND NOVEMBER TO MAKE SURE
THAT WE PULL THIS AND WE. AND
THE SOUTH AREAS. THANK YOU.
THANK MISTER CMS. GAL YOU ARE
RECOGNIZED. THANK YOU MISTER
SPEAKER MEMBERS- I RISE TODAY
IS AS SOMEONE WHO IS DEEPLY
CONCERNED ABOUT THE RACIAL
DISPARITIES THAT WE SEE IN OUR
EDUCATION SYSTEM. AND. YOU KNOW
WE'VE BEEN CONFRONTED ONCE
AGAIN. IN THIS COUNTRY WITH THE
FACT THAT THINGS ARE NOT EQUAL
AND THAT AS MY COLLEAGUE SAID.
REYES DOES MATTER. BUT AS I
STAND AND CONSIDER THIS MEASURE.
I CAN'T SAY THAT PROP TWO OH
NINE IS THE PROBLEM. IT'S MUCH
DEEPER THAN THAT WHEN WE LOOK
AT THAT AND I AND I APPRECIATE
THE COMMENTS THAT WE'VE- THAT
HAVE BEEN STATED HERE ON THIS
FOR TODAY AND THE AND THE
EXPERIENCES THAT. MY COLLEAGUES
HAVE SHARED TODAY THOSE ARE
IMPORTANT AND IT'S IMPORTANT WE
HAVE THIS DISCUSSION. TO TALK
ABOUT HOW DO WE GET TO THE ROOT
CAUSES. THE INEQUITIES THAT. WE
CAN SEE VERY CLEARLY IN OUR
EDUCATION SYSTEM. BUT I SAY
THAT PROP TWO NINE IS NOT THE
PROBLEM- WHEN WE LOOK AT THE
STATS- THE GETTING RID OF A
RACIAL PREFERENCES DID NOT
ACTUALLY LEAD TO DECREASES IT
ACTUALLY LEAD TO INCREASES- AND
LATINO STUDENTS BEING ADMITTED
IT LEAD TO INCREASES IN ASIAN
AMERICAN STUDENTS BEING
ADMITTED. BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT
THE STATS. ADMISSIONS OF BLACK
STUDENTS REMAINED STAGNANT. IN
THE UC SYSTEM 4% THERE HASN'T
IN PROGRESS THERE. THAT'S A
PROBLEM LET'S GO A LITTLE BIT
DEEPER IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT A
MISSION BECAUSE LET'S TALK
ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON IN
RETAINING STUDENTS WHILE
THEY'RE IN. HIGHER EDUCATION.
THE STATS SHOW THAT 38% OF
BLACK STUDENTS GRADUATE IN FOUR
YEARS FROM THE UC SYSTEM. IN
CSU IT'S EVEN MORE SINCE 8% SO
YOU CAN TALK ABOUT EMISSIONS
AND USING BRING BACK FROM AN OF
ACTION BUT WHAT ARE WE DOING TO
ENSURE THAT. BLACK AND BROWN
STUDENTS GRADUATE AND GET THAT
EDUCATION THAT'S A
CONVERSATION. THAT WE NEED TO
BE HAPPENED WE NEED TO GO EVEN
DEEPER. BUT LET'S TAKE EVEN TO
THE NEXT LEVEL BECAUSE THIS
STARTS WAY BEFORE. HIGHER
EDUCATION. NOW IS ONE OF MY
COLLEAGUES SAYS IT DOESN'T
MATTER WHERE YOU WHERE YOU
LIVE. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT
YOUR ZIP CODE IS. IN OUR CASE
THROUGH TWELVE EDUCATION SYSTEM.
RECOGNIZE THAT WE HAVE SOME
SERIOUS RACIAL DISPARITIES. AND
SOME OF US HAVE ADVOCATED FOR
REFORMS THAT WOULD ACTUALLY
DEAL WITH THAT VERY ISSUE. THIS
IS NOT SOMETHING NEW. NINE
MINORITY STUDENTS. STOOD UP AND
BROUGHT A LAWSUIT AGAINST THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA BECAUSE OF
THESE PROBLEMS IN OUR
EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM. AND THIS
STATE GOVERNMENT FOUGHT THEM
TOOTH AND NAIL IN THE REGARD
VERSUS- CALIFORNIA DECISION.
GOVERNOR JERRY BROWN FOUGHT
THEM TOOTH AND NAIL. SAY NO
WE'RE GOING TO KEEP THOSE
SYSTEMS IN PLACE. AND THE
AUTHOR OF THIS LEGISLATION
BROUGHT HER OWN LEGISLATION
SAYING WE ARE GOING TO CHANGE
TENURE FOR EXAMPLE. AND THIS
LEGISLATIVE BODY KILLED THAT
LEGISLATION. THE CHANGES THAT
MINORITY STUDENTS ARE BRINGING
TO US SAYING PLEASE CHANGE
THESE THINGS. THE GIVE US
BETTER OPPORTUNITIES TO MAKE IT
SO THAT IT'S NOT WHERE IS IT
CODE IS THAT IS NOT MY RACE.
THE DETERMINES MY SUCCESS IN MY
ABILITY TO GET AN EDUCATION THE
THINGS THAT THEY BROUGHT TO US
THIS BODY. KILLED IN THIS IN
THIS IN THIS BUILDING DESPITE
THE EFFORTS OF A LOT OF PEOPLE
IN THIS ROOM. BUT THE BOTTOM
LINE IS THE MAJORITY SAID NO.
SO IT'S A LOT DEEPER. THEN JUST
TALKING ABOUT PROP TWO OH NINE.
IT'S TALKIN ABOUT A FIRST IN
FIRST OUT POLICY THT WE HAVE
FOR TEACHERS. IS TALKING ABOUT
IN LA UNIFIED IN THAT TRIAL.
EXPERT WITNESSES TESTIFIED. THE
BLACK AND LATINO STUDENTS WERE.
MANY TIMES OVER PERCENTAGE WAS
LIKELY. TO BE TAUGHT BY A
TEACHER IN THE 5% EFFECTIVENESS
RATE THIRTY SECOND LOWEST 5%
I'LL GIVE YOU THE STATS AFRICAN
AMERICANS AFRICAN AMERICAN
STUDENTS WERE 43% MORE LIKELY
THAN WHITE STUDENTS TO BE
TAUGHT BY A TEACHER IN THE
BOTTOM FIVE PERCENT. LATINO
STUDENTS ARE 68% MORE LIKELY TO
HAVE A TEACHER IN THE BOTTOM 5%
OF EFFECTIVENESS IN LA UNIFIED
THAT'S THE PROBLEM. AND THAT'S
IN THAT IS SHOWING ITSELF. ALL
THE WAY UP AND WAY BEFORE WE
GET TO HIGHER EDUCATION WAY
BEFORE WE GET TO ADMISSIONS. SO
THIS BODY NEEDS A START DOING
THINGS ABOUT THIS AND IT'S HAD
THE OPPORTUNITY. AND DON'T TELL
ME TODAY THAT IS TWO OH NINE IF
YOU'RE NOT ON BOARD WAS GET RID
A TWO OH NINE YOU'RE NOT ABOUT
TRYING TO GET EQUITY IN
EDUCATION BECAUSE THERE'S A
WHOLE LOT MORE THAT WE NEED TO
DO. PLEASE CAN WE HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO DO IT IN THIS
SPOT. AND I WOULD SAY LET'S
HAVE LET'S CONTINUE THIS
CONVERSATION IS MUCH NEEDED IT
SHOULD HAVE BEEN. IT SHOULDN'T
TAKE WHAT'S HAPPENED. FOR US TO
HAVE THESE CONVERSATIONS BUT
LET'S LET'S REALLY GET TO THE
ROOT CAUSES OF WHAT'S GOING ON
WITH EDUCATION THE RACIAL
DISPARITIES WERE SEEN IN THIS
COUNTRY I'M READY TO WORK ON
THOSE ISSUES BUT I CAN'T
SUPPORT. WHAT'S A COVER UP OF
THOSE ISSUES OF THE SAME WHAT'S
ABOUT TO AN IRA LET'S ELIMINATE
THAT LET'S GET TO THE ROOT.
CAUSES OF THIS ISSUE THANK YOU
MEMBERS THERE WAS GALLAGHER MR
MCCARTY IN THE REAR CHAMBER YOU
ARE RECOGNIZED. THANK YOU
MISTER SPEAKER YOU KNOW IT
REALLY IS TIME FOR THIS
CONVERSATION. I'VE BEEN WAITING
TO VOTE ON THIS FOR AGAIN FOR
TWENTY FOUR YEARS. I'VE
AWAITING A VOTE ON THIS AS AN
ASSEMBLY MEMBER SINCE THE DAY I
GOT ELECTED SIX YEARS AGO I
KNEW IT'S TIME. CON I THINK
IT'S ABOUT I KNOW MY COLLEAGUE
FROM IS NICOLAS JUST NORTH OF
MY DISTRICT. HAS STRONG
OPINIONS AS WELL. YOU KNOW WHAT
WE HAVE EIGHTY OPINIONS HERE
THERE ARE NEARLY TWENTY MILLION
CALIFORNIANS WHO DESERVE A
RIGHT TO WEIGH IN ON THIS. AS
MY COLLEAGUE FROM ENCINO SAID.
MAYBE ONCE IN A GENERATION
PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA TO ENGAGE
ON SOMETHING SO IMPORTANT.
WHICH ALSO I FIND. AN ACHE. AND
SOMEWHAT HYPOCRITICAL IS THIS
MEASURE BEFORE WAS LET'S PUT ON
BY A VOTE OF THE PEOPLE. KNOWS
AGAINST US. DON'T ASK TO HAVE A
VOTE. SO WASN'T LEGISLATURE
THAT PUT THIS POLICY THE FACT
IT WAS THE PEOPLE OF
CALIFORNIA. THEY GOT A CHANCE
TO VOTE ON IT AT THE BALLOT. SO
WHY NOT JUST LET US HAVE
ANOTHER CHANCE TO GO OUT AGAIN.
YOU KNOW I WANT TO FOCUS ON A
FEW SECONDS OF WHAT THIS. BILL
AND THIS MEASURE BEFORE THE
PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA. WON'T DO.
IT WON'T BRING QUOTAS AROUND
AND YOU HERE THE RHETORIC.
ABOUT WHAT IT WILL DO AND
THAT'S JUST FLAT OUT FALSE THE
SUPREME COURT. RULED ON THAT
AND YOU KNOW THAT'S THE LEGAL
IT WON'T HAPPEN. IN CALIFORNIA
AND WE KNOW IT WON'T HAPPEN IN.
WITH OUR UC ADMISSIONS WE KNOW
THAT THAT WAS NOT THE POLICY.
THIS STATES THAT RACE WILL BE A
CONSIDERATION A FACTOR. AND I
WANT TO TALK ABOUT SOME REAL.
IMPLICATIONS FOR ARE THINGS
THAT WE'RE TRYING TO FOCUS IN
CALIFORNIA. HIGHER EDUCATION
COLLEGE ACCESS. TO OUR SCHOOLS.
THROUGH THE WITH REGARD TO YOU.
ALL OF. THEY'VE REFORM THEIR
ADMISSIONS POLICIES OVER THE
LAST FIFTEEN TWENTY YEARS AFTER
PROP TWO NINE. THE REPEAL PROP
THREE FIELD THE MEASURES. WITH
SP ONE FIFTEEN YEARS AGO. WE
NOW HAVE COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW.
PUBLIC REVIEW OF CASES WITH A
LOOK AT ALL THESE FACTORS AND
SO. THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE
THIS QUARTER SYSTEM IN PLACE.
REALLY CHANGING THE PROCESS HOW
TO GET THE UNIVERSITY OF
CALIFORNIA WE NOW HAVE. THE TAX
AS FAR AS I ELIGIBLE THE LOCAL
CONTEXT IF YOU'RE IN YOUR- RAP.
A LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL YOU GET A
MINUTE. FOR THAT THERE'S NOT
GONNA BE QUITE AS WHO GETS IN
AND WHO DOESN'T FOR YOU SEE.
BUT THIS WHAT THIS WILL DO
IT'LL SEND A HUGE MASSES AS FAR
AS WELCOMING TO UC CAMPUSES.
AFRICAN AMERICAN ROME IS ABOUT
4% UC CAMPUSES. IN LARGE PART
BECAUSE THERE'S A BIG NOT NOT
WELCOME SIGN. WE HAVE A TALENT
DRAIN THAT GOES TO SCHOOLS
ACROSS CALIFORNIA. EAST COAST
SCHOOLS TO HISTORICALLY BLACK
COLLEGES ACROSS THE SOUTH.
TALENT LEAVES CALIFORNIA
BECAUSE WE HAVE A ON WELCOME
SIGN AND FORTUNATELY. SO THIS
WILL SEND A MESSAGE THAT
CALIFORNIA ONCE AND VALUES
EVERYBODY BECAUSE WE NEED
EVERYBODY TO SIXTY. WE HAVE TWO
MILLION COLLEGE GRADUATES IN
CALIFORNIA FILL THE JOBS OF
TODAY AND TOMORROW WE NEED MORE
PEOPLE GRADUATING FROM COLLEGE
OF ALL OUR NEIGHBORHOODS
THROUGHOUT. SO WHAT DOES THAT
MEAN THAT MEANS HAVING FACULTY
THAT REFLECT OUR COMMUNITY.
THEY ARE RIGHT NOW WITH HIGHER
DO FACULTY AT UC AND CSU
COMMUNITY COLLEGES. REYES CAN'T
BE A CONSIDERATION. THIS WILL
CERTAINLY MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE.
AS MY COLLEAGUE TO MEET
NICHOLAS AS WE DO HAVE PROBLEMS
WITH HIGHER EDUCATION
ACHIEVEMENT WE HAVE THE-
GRADUATION RATES FOR AFRICAN
AMERICANS. FOR BROWN TO BLACK
STUDENTS IS NOT THE SAME AS IT
IS FOR OTHERS SO WHAT WITH THIS
ALLOWS TO DO. HAVE RACE BASED
REMEDIES THAT WE KNOW WORK
RIGHT NOW THOSE ARE ILLEGAL AND
THEIR THEIR THE MANY THE
CAMPUSES ARE AFRAID OF BEING
SUED. SO THEY CAN'T GO AND MAKE
A DIFFERENCE AND HOW WILL THAT
HELP S THAT WOULD MEAN MORE
PEOPLE GETTING OUT OF THE UC
AND CSU IN FOUR YEARS. BRING UP
SPOTS FOR ALL OF THE BROTHER
CALIFORNIANS AND DEALING WITH
OUR NEEDS AS FAR AS- HIGHER
EDUCATION GRADUATES BILL THE
JOBS IT TODAY. FOR K. TWELVE
SCHOOLS MY COLLEAGUES SAN DIEGO
THE AUTHOR IS MEASURE MINUS
LAST YEAR THE BLACK MINDS
MATTER WE HAD TREMENDOUS
RESEARCH TALKING ABOUT WHAT WE
CAN DO TO ADDRESS THE
ACHIEVEMENT OPPORTUNITY GAP WE
GIVE OUT MONIES FOR ELSE YET
THAT FORMULATION BASED UPON HI
NEAT. ANYTIME SCHOOL DISTRICTS
COME UP WITH COME UP WITH THE
REMEDIES BUT THEY CAN'T
IMPLEMENT THEIR PROGRAMS
BECAUSE- THEY CAN'T FOCUS ON
RACE AND EVEN KNOW THEY KNOW
THOSE PROGRAMS WOULD BE PROPER
INTERVENTIONS TO MAKE A
DIFFERENCE. SO WE KNOW THAT
EVERYTHING THAT WE'RE TRYING TO
REMEDIES AND SOLUTIONS WE CAN
ALWAYS FOCUS ON THE BECAUSE
WERE HELD BACK BECAUSE OF PROP
TWO NINE. THIS WILL ALLOW US TO
GO THE PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA TO
WEAR. WHAT MANY PEOPLE OF
CALIFORNIA HAVE BENEFITTED FROM
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION. MY FAMILY
MY FATHER GOT HIS FIRST JOB
HERE THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AS
AN ATTORNEY RIGHT DOWN THE
STREET THE DEPARTMENT OF
JUSTICE AND HE GOT AN
OPPORTUNITY BECAUSE OF
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION POLICY. AND
MANY PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA HAVE
DONE THE SAME AND FOR THE LAST
TWENTY FOUR YEARS WE ELIMINATE
THOSE OPPORTUNITIES FOR SO MANY
CALIFORNIANS. AND WE KNOW THIS
ISN'T IT I SEE. I HOPE WITH
PASSES I'M GONNA BUT FOR TODAY
UP THE VOTERS. WEIGH IN AS WELL
IN A FEW MONTHS THIRTY SECONDS
THERE ARE STATES ACROSS OUR
NATION THAT HAVE THESE POLICIES
AND THEY HAVE THEIR TROUBLES TO
THE WHAT THIS SAYS IS THAT RACE
DOESN'T MATTER. AND GOVERNMENT
POLICY ADDRESSING THESE ISSUES
AND ACKNOWLEDGING RACIAL
INEQUALITY IT'S IMPORTANT STEP
CALIFORNIA TAKE TO TAKE UP.
THANK YOU JUST BE. THANK YOU.
MS CALL SILVA. YOUR RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER AND
MEMBERS MEMBERS WE'VE HEARD A
LOT ON THE FLOOR TODAY ABOUT A
CA FIVE AND I HAVE TO TELL YOU.
I WAS HERE IN TWENTY THIRTEEN
WHEN THIS CONVERSATION CAME UP
AND IT WAS QUITE A CONVERSATION
THERE WAS NOT AN AGREEMENT AND
IT ACTUALLY CAUSED QUITE A BIT
OF I THINK FROM FRUSTRATION. TO
THE AUTHOR DR SHIRLEY WEBER
BECAUSE WE COULD NOT GET THAT
UP ON THE FLOOR IT WAS ACTUALLY
TABLE. AND NOW IN TWENTY TWENTY
WE STAND HERE WITH THIS ON THE
FLOOR. AND I DID WASN'T READY
TO JUMP IN AS I'VE SAID A FEW
TIMES ON THIS FLOOR THESE ARE
DIFFICULT VOTES THESE ARE TOUGH
VOTES AND IN MY DISTRICT I'VE
SEEN MORE THAN A FEW TIMES.
WHEN YOU TAKE A VOTE THERE'S A
CONSEQUENCE. AND I HAVE
RECEIVED MANY MANY HUNDREDS OF
LETTERS TO SAY DO NOT SUPPORT A
CA FIVE MATTER FACT THE LEADING
OF. PERSON IN MY DISTRICT WROTE
THESE DON'T VOTE ON A CA FIVE
THAT IS A RACIST POLICY. I
RECEIVED MANY. RESPONSES SAYING
THIS LETS PEOPLE GET AHEAD OF
SOMEONE ELSE WHEN THEY DON'T
DESERVE IT. BUT I'M GONNA
QUICKLY SHARE A FEW OF MY
STORIES IN NINETEEN NINETY SIX
I WAS THIRTY TWO YEARS OLD WITH
THREE YOUNG CHILDREN SEVEN
YEARS OLD SIX YEARS OLD AND A
THREE YEAR OLD AND A CLASSROOM
TEACHER I HAD BEEN TEACHING FOR
ALMOST TEN YEARS BY THAT TIME
AND RIGHT AFTER PROP TWO NINE I
WENT BACK TO THE CLASSROOM. AND
ARE BILINGUAL PROGRAMS WERE
DISMANTLED. SO WITH IN A SHORT
FEW MONTHS. CHILDREN THAT WERE
IN BILINGUAL PROGRAMS. THAT
WERE LEARNING THAT WAY THOSE
PROGRAMS WERE DISMANTLED WE HAD
BEEN TRAINED IN VARIOUS
PRACTICES THROUGH THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA. AND THEY WERE JUST
RACED. WITH THAT BEING SAID IF
YOU WERE A PERSON OF COLOR
PARTICULARLY IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD
ORANGE COUNTY FULLER TEN WE
WERE TRACKED WE WERE TRAPPED
RIGHT INTO BILINGUAL PROGRAMS
WHETHER WE WERE BI LINGUAL OR
NOT. AND THAT MEANT USUALLY NOT
AN OPTION FOR COLLEGE I WAS THE
FIRST IN MY FAMILY TO GO TO
COLLEGE BUT MANY OF MY
COUNSELORS IN HIGH SCHOOL. DID
YOU EVEN THINK THAT I WAS A
CANDIDATE. AS I CAME FROM A
FAMILY OF TEN AND UP NOBODY IN
MY FAMILY HAD BEEN TO COLLEGE
BEFORE BUT THE POINT IS THAT WE
WERE OFTEN DISCOUNTED HOUSING
POLICIES IN MY AREA LATINO
FAMILY OWNS WORK UP PUSHED INTO
ONE NEIGHBORHOOD. AND THAT WAS
A POLICY AT THAT TIME SO WHEN
WE LOOK TO NOW WHEN WE TALK
ABOUT THIS POLICY THERE IS A
HUGE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EQUITY.
AND EQUALITY AND THAT IS SO
HARD FOR PEOPLE. THEY REALLY
WANT EVERYTHING TO BE FAIR. BUT
AS WE KNOW EVERYTHING IS NOT
FAIR AND THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT
HERE SO WITH MY COLLEAGUES TO
THE NORTH I DO AGREE WE HAVE AN
MUCH CHANGE THAT THAT NEEDS TO
BE MADE PUBLIC EDUCATION WE ARE
FAILING SOME OF OUR STUDENTS
AND THAT IS WHY. AS A LOCAL
ELECTED I STARTED THE CHIEF
MEANT GAP CONVERSATION THAT TEN
YEARS AGO WE WOULDN'T EVEN
RESPOND TO THERE WAS NO CHIEF
IT MAKE GAP WHICH WE KNOW IS
NOT TRUE SO I STAND HERE AS
SOMEONE THAT YOU JUST HAD TO BE
PUSHED A LITTLE BIT. TO GET
HERE BUT DOCTOR ARE ALWAYS HAS
THAT EFFECT ON ME SHE KNOWS
THAT I'M ALWAYS GOING TO GET
THERE BUT- THESE ARE DEEPLY
VOTES AND I'VE STOOD STILL I
HAVE. BEEN ON THIS FOR MORE
THAN A FEW TIMES THAT HAVE SAID
SOMETIMES YOU GOT TO TAKE A
HARD VOTE. AT IT'S NOT EASY BUT
I WON'T DO THAT BECAUSE IT
MEANS SO MUCH TO SO MANY OF OUR
FAMILIES AND THE MORE WE
INCREASE. THE VALUE TO OUR
PEOPLE OF COLOR BLACK. LATINO
STUDENTS ALL ETHNICITIES WE ALL
RICE SO I ASK FOR YOUR SUPPORT
FOR A SEE A FIVE. THANK YOU MS
QUIRK SILVA MISTER GARCIA THANK
YOU MISTER SPEAKER AND
COLLEAGUES I'M MOVED AND
MOTIVATED TO STAND UP AND RISE
IN SUPPORT OF AC A FIVE AND
THANK THE- AUTHOR OF THIS
MEASURE DOCTOR WEBER. WHO I
THINK WE ALL RECOGNIZE AS A
LEADER. IN CIVIL RIGHTS AND
WHAT'S RIGHT FOR ALL PEOPLE OF
CALIFORNIA THANK YOU FOR
BRINGING US TOGETHER ON THIS
ISSUE LET ME JUST SAY THAT IF I.
YOU KNOW WE RECOGNIZE THE
THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON IN
THIS COUNTRY THE PROTESTS THAT
WERE SEEN. THE UPROAR ABOUT
RACE AND POLICE AND COMMUNITY
RELATIONS- THAT IF WE TRULY
STAND WITH THE IDEA THAT BLACK
LIVES MATTER DAN THIS ACTION
TODAY- SHOULD MATTER TO YOU AND
YOU WOULD VOTE YES ON AC FIVE
MEN YOU KNOW A FIVE. YEAR GOAL.
THIS COMEY MONTEZ OUR COLLEAGUE
FROM HIGHLAND THE FIRST
CALIFORNIA NATIVE AMERICAN TO
BE ELECTED TO THIS BODY REMINDS
US OF THE APOLOGY THAT WE'VE-
MADE TO CALIFORNIA NATIVES. FOR
GLOBAL OF HISTORY FIRST
GOVERNOR OF THIS STATE.
IMPOSING EXTERMINATION POLICIES
IN FUNDING MALICIOUS TO GO
AFTER CALIFORNIA NATIVES TO
EXTERMINATE THEM AND WE
APOLOGIZE LAST YEAR IF THAT
MATTERED LAST YEAR AN- AND IF
BLACK LIVES MATTER MOVEMENT AND
WHAT'S HAPPENING TODAY MATTER
TO YOU THEN VOTING YES ON A CA
FIVE IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO
IT FIVE WE RECOGNIZE THAT IN
THE TRAGIC RACISM. AND DIVISION
OF THIS THE STATE'S HISTORY
WITH POLICIES LIKE ONE EIGHTY
SEVEN AND- WHAT WERE
DELIBERATING HERE TILL NINE AND
TWO TWO SEVEN AND- THE REPEAL
OF- THIS MEASURE IS IMPORTANT.
TO CHANGE ALL THAT THEN YOU
WOULD VOTE ON A CA FIVE I THINK
YOU KNOW FOLKS HAVE SAID TODAY.
THAT THE WE ARE MANY OF US ARE
PRODUCTS OF THESE OPPORTUNITIES
THAT HAVE BEEN GIVEN TO US I IS
A PROUD CHICANO FROM THE
COACHELLA VALLEY FIRST
GENERATION AMERICAN BORN- YOU
KNOW I'M VERY PROUD OF THE
OPPORTUNITIES THAT I'VE-
RECEIVED AND- THREE FOR SECOND
CHANCES THAT HAVE BEEN GIVEN TO
ME. TO BE ABLE TO SERVE THIS
BODY BUT IT HAS COME BY YOU
KNOW NO JUST THE EASY PATH. AND
THE SACRIFICES OF MANY OTHER
PEOPLE ARE BEFORE US AND BEHIND
US THAT OF OPENED UP THESE
PADS. FOR US TO SERVE IN THIS
BODY AND SO I JUST WANT TO
REMIND US IN. IN THE TIME THAT
WE BRAIN AND YESTERDAY AS A
BODY WE- ACKNOWLEDGE THE TERM
ALL THAT IS. TAKING PLACE IN
OUR COUNTRY AND IN OUR STATE IN
OUR COMMUNITIES- WITH. A BLACK
PEOPLE BEING PERSECUTED BY. YOU
KNOW BAD COPS IN OUR
COMMUNITIES- BROWN PEOPLE-
BEING PERSECUTED BY BAD POPS IN
OUR COMMUNITY AND NOW LOOKING
THAT THIS. EFFORT TO. ENSURE
THAT INSTITUTIONALIZED RACISM.
IS A RADIC HEATED TO ENSURE
THAT YES THEN WE CAN TALK ABOUT
EQUALITY FOR ALL BUT RIGHT NOW
WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IS
GIVING CALIFORNIANS AN
OPPORTUNITY A TWO WAY ON THIS A
WEIGH IN ON THIS VERY IMPORTANT
ISSUE- WHICH IS AFFIRMATIVE
ACTION TO MAKE SURE THAT- WE
READ A CAKE YOU KNOW SEXISM.

TO PICK REYES AGAINST REYES.
ETHNICITY AGAINST ETHNICITY.
GENDER AGAINST GENDER. IT WAS
DONE TO BREED DESCENT. CONTEMPT.
TO DEFAME PEOPLE'S DIGNITY. IT
FALSELY PRESUMES. THAT YOUR
ACCESS AND YOUR OPPORTUNITY IS
EQUAL BECAUSE YOUR
CIRCUMSTANCES ARE EQUAL. AND WE
KNOW THAT THAT'S A LIE. THAT IS
A LIE. AND TO CLING TO THAT
LINE. IS TO ABDICATE. THE MORAL
WORK THAT WE HAVE TO DO. TO
CONFRONT. THE HISTORY OF THIS
COUNTRY. IT IS OKAY TO TALK
ABOUT THE FACT THAT NOT
EVERYONE WAS BORN UNDER THIS
CIRCUMSTANCE. IT IS NOT OKAY.
TO DENY. ACCESS OPPORTUNITY A
SPACE BECAUSE OF THAT. IT'S SO
MUCH EASIER TO PAY SOMEONE
AGAINST SOMEONE ELSE. THEN IT
IS TO GET HONEST AND
UNCOMFORTABLE ABOUT THE WORK
THAT WE HAVE IN FRONT OF US.
KING SAID. EVERY SOCIETY. HAS
ITS PROTECTORS OF THE STATUS
QUO. AND ITS FRATERNITIES OF
THE IN DIFFERENT. WHO ARE
NOTORIOUS FOR SLEEPING THROUGH

THANK YOU MISS GIVE SAID. MR
MAYES YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. ARE
WE ON WELL THANK YOU MISTER
SPEAKER- WASN'T SURE I WAS
GONNA STAND UP BUT TODAY TO BE
ABLE TO SPEAK ON THIS- VICTOR
WASN'T SURE WE'RE GONNA TAKE UP
ISSUES LIKE LIKE THIS- BECAUSE
OF COVERT ABOUT YOU'RE GOING TO
DEAL WITH MOSTLY COVERED
RELATED- LATED ITEMS AND HAD A
CONVERSATION JUST LAST WEEK
WITH OF THE AUTHOR AND SHE SAID
HEY CHAD WHERE YOU OUT AN ACA
FIVE AND I SAID HA. WHAT'S THAT.
NOAH AND WE HAD A LITTLE BIT OF
A- OF A CONVERSATION I SAID MY
SAID TO THE AUTHOR GIVE ME. THE
WEEKEND LET ME SPEND A LITTLE
BIT TIME DIGGING IN AND- AND
I'VE I'VE GONE FROM- THINKING I
WASN'T EASY NO. TO BEING A HARD
YES TO. THE I DON'T KNOW. A TO
BE HONEST WITH YOU. OVER THE
WEEKEND I READ THE LANGUAGE OF
PROP TWO OH NINE IF IT'S OKAY
MISTER SPEAKER I JUST WANT TO
READ THE FIRST PARAGRAPH WHICH
IS REALLY THE HEART OF THE- OF
THE PROPOSITION IS WITHOUT
OBJECTION. SAYS THE STATE SHALL
NOT DISCRIMINATE AGAINST OR
GRANT PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT TO
ANY INDIVIDUAL GROUP ON THE
BASIS OF RACE SEX. COLOR
ETHNICITY OR NATIONAL ORIGIN IN
THE OPERATION OF PUBLIC
EMPLOYMENT PUBLIC EDUCATION OR
PUBLIC CONTRACTING. SO I'M FOR
FORTY THREE YEARS OLD IT'S HARD
FOR ME TO SAY THAT NOW BECAUSE
I'VE ALWAYS THOUGHT ABOUT ME
BEING THE YOUNG GUY IN THE
ROOM- SO I WASN'T I'M NOT FORTY
ONE- IN NINETEEN NINETY SIX I
WOULD HAVE BEEN. A NINETEEN
YEARS OLD AND I AM. ALMOST
CERTAIN THAT WHEN I WAS
NINETEEN YEARS OLD I VOTED IN
FAVOR OF THAT LANGUAGE BECAUSE
WHERE I COME FROM I WANTED TO
BELIEVE I STILL WANT TO
BELIEVE- THAT WE LIVE IN A
COLOR BLIND A WORLD- AND THAT
WE- THERE IS EQUAL OPPORTUNITY
FOR ALL I WANTED TO BELIEVE
LIKE. ALL OF YOU HEARD ME SING
A FEW YEARS AGO OF THE- THE
COURSE THAT WE SAYING WHEN I
WAS IN. IN IN SUNDAY SCHOOL RED
AND YELLOW BLACK AND WHITE THEY
ARE PRECIOUS IN HIS SIGHT THAT
WE ARE ALL EQUAL WANT TO LEAVE
AT THEN I VOTED FOR IT THAT.
THAT IS ALMOST TWENTY. YEARS
AND IF YOU THINK ABOUT WHERE AT
WHERE WE'RE AT TODAY AS A
SOCIETY IF WE ARE HONEST WITH
OURSELVES. RACE DOES MATTER.
WE'RE BEYOND FIFTY YEARS PASSED
THE NINETEEN SIXTY FOUR CIVIL
RIGHTS ACT AND THE VOTING
RIGHTS ACT OF NINETEEN SIXTY
FIVE I DID WASN'T CUTTING GROUP
GROPE IN THE NINETEEN SIXTIES
SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT ALL OF
THAT WAS WAS ALL ABOUT I WAS
BORN IN THE LATE SEVENTIES AND
FOR ME I DIDN'T SEE ALL OF
THOSE THOSE THINGS. BUT WHEN I
WAS NINETEEN I HAD HOPED THAT
WE HAD GOTTEN BEYOND ALL OF
THAT AND THE TRUTH IS TWENTY
FIVE YEARS LATER IT IS VERY
CLEAR THAT WE HAVE WE ARE NOT
BEYOND THAT AND THE FACT IS IT
HAS BEEN. A GENERATION. BEFORE
CALIFORNIANS HAVE HAD THE
ABILITY TO BE ABLE TO STAND UP.
AND PINE ON THIS. AND I THINK
IT'S APPROPRIATE FOR THIS BODY
FROM TIME TO TIME LOOKING AT
OUR STATE CONSTITUTION. TO PUT
THOSE QUESTIONS BACK BEFORE THE
VOTERS AND SAY IS THIS STILL
WHAT YOU WANT. TO BE IN YOUR
CONSTITUTION. AND FOR THAT
REASON I THINK IT IS MORE THAN
APPROPRIATE FOR US TO BE ABLE
TO SEND THIS ACA FIVE TO BE
ABLE TO GET ON THE BALLOT. IN
NOVEMBER AND ASK THIS QUESTION
OF WHERE THE CALIFORNIANS WANT
TO MOVE IN THE FUTURE. IF WE
JUST LISTEN AND I GUESS IS THE
OTHER THING THAT I WOULD WANT
TO SAY IS WE'VE BEEN OVER THE
LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS WE'VE
WE'VE SEEN THIS EVERYONE SAYS-
I'VE GOT THE ANSWERS BECAUSE
WHEN I WAS NINETEEN YEARS OLD I
HAD ALL THE ANSWERS YOU HAVE
ASKED ME THEN I WAS THE
SMARTEST GUY THAT I KNEW- STE
SOME OF YOU MIGHT ACTUALLY SAY
THAT CHECK GIVEN CHANGE MUCH.
FROM A BUT- BUT WHAT I REALIZE
IS THAT WE DON'T HAVE ALL THE
ANSWERS I DON'T HAVE ALL THE
ANSWERS BUT WHEN YOU LISTEN TO
ONE ANOTHER AND YOU LEARN FROM
ONE ANOTHER YOU TRULY LISTEN TO
ONE ANOTHER. LIKE AT THE TONE
OF THE CONVERSATION TODAY. YOUR
REALIZE THE PERSPECTIVE THAT WE
ALL HAVE- ARE VALUABLE. AND I
WOULD SAY AS THE MAJORITY OF
HIS BODY HAS SAID AND I BELIEVE
IT'S GONNA BE SUPER MAJORITIES
BODIES SAID. IT'S TIME TO GO
BACK AND LOOK AT THIS TIME TO
GIVE THE PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA.
THE RIGHT TO BE ABLE TO THE TO
OPINE ON THIS. AND FOR THAT
REASON I'LL BE SUPPORTING IT
TODAY. THANK YOU MISTER MAYES.
MISTER MURATSUCHI. YOUR
RECOGNIZED. THANK YOU I WANT TO
START OFF BY SAYING THAT- I
REALLY APPRECIATE THE DIVERSITY
OF PERSPECTIVES THAT ARE. BEING
REPRESENTED IN OUR DISCUSSION
TODAY YOU KNOW I WOULDN'T BE
SURPRISED IF WE ARE THE MOST.
DIVERSE STATE LEGISLATURE IN
THE ENTIRE COUNTRY. AND I. I
THINK WE TRULY BENEFIT. FROM
THIS DIVERSITY OF PERSPECTIVES.
AND I THINK THAT THAT IT WAS
ONE OF THE- FUNDAMENTAL
PRINCIPLES UNDERLYING
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION. TO ENSURE
THE RICHNESS OF. DEBATE OF CA
OF CONVERSATIONS ESPECIALLY A
PUBLIC CONVERSATIONS BY HAVING
SUCH A BROAD RANGE OF
PERSPECTIVES. BEING REPRESENTED.
I WANT TO JOIN MY COLLEAGUES IN
ACKNOWLEDGING THE MOMENT THAT
WE'RE AT RIGHT NOW. I THINK A-
YOU KNOW RECENT EVENTS ARE
CLEARLY SHOWN THAT THE
CORONAVIRUSES HAD A
DISPROPORTIONATE IMPACT ON
BLACK AND BROWN COMMUNITIES.
THE MURDER OF GEORGE FLOYD
ANOTHER YOUNG BLACK MEN IS
CLEARLY SHOWED. THAT WE STILL
LIVE IN A RACIST AND SEXIST
SOCIETY. AND I WOULD AGREE WITH
ALL OF MY COLLEAGUES WHO HAVE
TALKED ABOUT HOW RACE STILL
MATTERS GENDER SO MATTERS. AND
THAT WE NEED TO ACKNOWLEDGE
THIS REALITY. BY OPENLY
CONSIDERING RATHER THAN
PRETENDING. THAT WE LIVE IN A
COLOR BLIND AND GENDER NEUTRAL
SOCIETY THAT WE DO NEED TO
OPENLY. CONSIDER RACE AND
GENDER. BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE.
THAT THE VOICES THAT ALL VOICES
ARE HEARD IN THIS DEBATE AND I
BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE VOICES.
AND THE ASIAN AMERICAN
COMMUNITY THAT HAVE NOT. BEEN
DONE JUSTICE IN OUR
CONVERSATION THUS FAR AND SO I
WANT TO. RAISE A VOICE FOR.
MANY NOT ALL BECAUSE THE ASIAN
AMERICAN COMMUNITY IS EXTREMELY
DIVERSE. BUT I WANT TO MAKE
SURE THAT THEIR VOICES ARE
HEARD IN THIS DEBATE. ASIAN
AMERICANS EVEN DURING THIS
CORONA VIRUS PANDEMIC I MEAN WE
HAVE EXPERIENCED RACISM WE HAVE
BEEN ATTACKED. THE VICTIMS OF
MORE HATE CRIMES BECAUSE OF OUR
PRESIDENT THAT CALLS THIS. THE
WUHAN VIRUS THE CHINESE VIRUS.
THAT A JAPANESE GUY LIKE ME IS
GETTING ATTACKED OR YOU KNOW AT
RISK OF BEING ATTACKED BECAUSE
IN THE EYES OF SO MANY
AMERICANS WE ALL LOOK THE SAME.
ASIAN AMERICAN THIS IS JUST THE
LATEST EXAMPLE OF HOW ASIAN
AMERICANS ARE NOT. IMMUNE FROM
RACISM HERE AND NOW AND OF
COURSE ASIAN AMERICAN WOMEN.
ARE JUST AS MUCH VICTIMS OF
SEXISM. IF NOT MORE. AND SO
THAT IS THE REASON WHY. THE
MAJORITY OF ASIAN AMERICANS
SUPPORT AFFIRMATIVE ACTION BUT
WE SUPPORT AFFIRMATIVE ACTION.
AT THE SAME TIME WE WANT TO
MAKE SURE THAT IT'S- DONE IN A
WAY THAT DOESN'T DISCRIMINATE
AGAINST ASIAN AMERICANS THAT
DOESN'T UNFAIRLY. LIMIT OR
EXCLUDE. IN A MEMBERS OF OUR
COMMUNITY. IN THE PRACTICE OF
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION. ASIAN
AMERICANS ARE DIVERSE AMMANAI
AT THE RISK OF ENGAGING IN
STEREOTYPES A MAN WE HAVE A
WEALTHY RECENT IMMIGRANTS FROM
CHINA. WE HAVE FOURTH
GENERATION JAPANESE AMERICANS
LIVING IN MIDDLE CLASS SUBURBS
WE HAVE COLLEGE EDUCATED
KOREANS AND SOUTH ASIAN
IMMIGRANTS WORKING IN GROCERY
STORES THIRTY SECONDS. AND YET
THE ONE THING THAT BRINGS ALL
ASIAN AMERICANS TOGETHER IS.
THE IMPORTANCE OF EDUCATION AS
YOU KNOW THE TICKET FOR OUR
CHILDREN TO ACHIEVE THE
AMERICAN DREAM. THERE IS A
WIDELY HELD PERCEPTION AMONG
MANY ASIANS THAT WE HAVE TO
WORK HARDER AND GET BETTER
GRADES AND HIGHER TEST SCORES
TO GET INTO THE MOST
COMPETITIVE SCHOOLS IN OUR
COUNTRY. AND THAT. THAT
PERCEPTION CONTINUES TO GET
HAVE SOME SUPPORT. IN THE DATA
THAT I RECEIVED RECENTLY FROM
THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA I
MEAN ADMISSION RATES FOR ALL
GROUPS HAVE DROPPED BECAUSE THE
APPLICATIONS. HAVE DRAMATICALLY
INCREASED IN THE PAST TWENTY
FIVE YEARS EVER SINCE PROP TWO
OH NINE PASS PLEASE INCLUDE.
BUT THE BOTTOM LINE IS THIS. IS
THAT. ASIAN AMERICANS JUST LIKE
ANYONE ELSE. WE ARE SEEKING
EQUAL OPPORTUNITY. WE WANT. TO
BE TREATED FAIRLY. AFFIRMATIVE
ACTION IF DONE RIGHT. IT IS TO
PROMOTE EQUAL OPPORTUNITY AND
DIVERSITY FOR ALL. AND SO I
LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH
ALL OF YOU TO NOT ONLY SUPPORT
THE REPEAL OF PROPOSITION TWO
OR NINE. BUT TO MAKE SURE THAT
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION. WORKS FOR
ALL COMMUNITIES AND THAT DOES
NOT. UNFAIRLY DISCRIMINATE
AGAINST ANYONE COMMUNITY THANK
YOU. THANK YOU MISTER
MURATSUCHI MISTER COOPER. YOU
ARE RECOGNIZED. THANK YOU
MISTER SPEAKER MEMBERS ACTUALLY
HADN'T PLANNED ON TALKING BUT I
AM VOTING TO SUPPORT OF ACA
FIVE I DON'T THINK THE MEMBER
FROM SAN DIEGO- SHOULD TAKES
THE EASY ROAD AND- I APPRECIATE
THAT BUT- IT'S DEFINITELY WORTH
DOING YOUR WHEN THE HARDWORKING
MEMBERS I KNOW- THE MILL MEMBER
FROM SAN DIEGO WHEN HE SPOKE
AND IT REALLY TOUCHED ME WE
SAID HIS PARENTS TOLD THEM
LET'S NOT FOR YOU GOT WORK
TWICE AS HARD. MY MOM TOLD ME
THE SAME THING SO THINK ABOUT
THAT WHY WOULD APPEAR EVER TELL
THEIR CHILD THAT LIFE IS NOT
FAIR YOU HAVE TO WORK TWICE AS
HARD AS EVERYBODY ELSE I HAVE
FOUR DAUGHTERS I TOLD THE SAME
THING THAT'S REALITY PEOPLE
FACE IT'S INTERESTING TO THINK
ABOUT THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACT OF
SIXTY FOUR VOTING RIGHTS ACT
THE SIXTY FIVE I WAS BORN IN
SIXTY FOUR A FIFTY SIX MY DOZEN
MILITARY IN FRANCE MY FAMILY'S
OVER THERE. AND HE HAD BEEN
ABLE TO VOTE BEFORE THEN. GOOD
MISSISSIPPI. COULDN'T VOTE. SO
IT'S CRAZY THINGS GO ON. IN
THINK A- THIS IS TO LET THE
VOTER VOTE. DOESN'T GET ANY
BETTER THAT WE'RE NOT THIS IS.
THEY'RE MAKING. IN A RICE TIDE
LIFTS ALL BOATS. WITH LOW ABOUT
BLACK PEOPLE EVERYBODY ELSE.
FOR THE API COMMUNITY SOUTHEAST
ASIANS LAWFUL ARE GOING TO
BENEFIT FROM THIS JUST TO HAVE
A CHANCE SO THINK ABOUT THAT A
RISING TIDE LIFTS ALL BOATS.
HOW MY FOUR DOLLARS HAVE A
CHANCE THEIR THEIR BLACK WOMEN.
AND IF YOU THINK ABOUT THIS FOR
THE PAST FOUR YEARS I'VE BEEN
THE PAY EQUITY BILL FOR WOMEN
IN THE LEGISLATURE. INITIALLY
THE BILL IS WORKING WITH THE
ADMINISTRATION ON IT NO FOR THE
BILL GETS THROUGH BUT WHO KNOWS
BUT WE KELLY CHART TELLS ME
COULD TAKE TEN YEARS. TO BRING
UP THE PAY OF WOMEN TO MEN. IN
STATE SERVICE THAT IS INSANE.
THAT IS FAR TOO LONG. THINK
ABOUT THAT TEN YEARS TO BRING
UP. IF YOU'RE FEMALE CHIEF IN
THIS BUILDING. YOU MAKE LESS
THAN MIL CHIEFS DO. WHY IS
THAT. I CAME FROM I REFER
COUNTY FOR THIRTY YEARS IN A
CITY FOR FIFTEEN. AND WHATEVER
THAT CLASSIFICATION WAS MADE
THE SAME PAY IN THAT JOB
DESCRIPTION HERE THE CAPITAL.
IT IS THE GOVERNMENT PAYS
EVERYWHERE THERE'S NO EQUITY IN
THE I THINK ABOUT THAT SO WILL
SEEING IT'S BEEN TOO LONG. WE
GOT A CHANGE THAT. IT'S
EXCELLENT IT'S TOUGH TO HAVE
DISCUSSION ON RACE. IS TOUGH
KNOWN IT MAKES PEOPLE
UNCOMFORTABLE OR TALK ABOUT IT.
I CAN'T CHANGE COLOR OF MY SKIN
I'M A BLACK MAN. BUT IT IS
SOMETHING FOR THE VOTERS. TO GO
VOTE SO I DON'T KNOW WHY.
ANYBODY WOULD BEGRUDGE THE
VOTERS TO MAKE A DECISION. THE
VOTE ON THIS TWENTY FIVE YEARS
AGO LET THEM VOTE ON IT NOW. IT
IS NOT A BIG DEAL JUST MAKES
SENSE. AND I REALLY BELIEVE. WE
ARE AT A WATERMARK IN SOCIETY
WITH THIS THERE'S SO MUCH
THAT'S GOING ON. IN TO JUST
BEING GATES IN OF ALL. PLACES
LAWMAKERS EVER ELECTED WE VOTE
ALL THE TIME TO MAKE DECISIONS
FOR CONSTITUENTS. BUT THIS IS
THE CHANCE WE GET TO OUR
CONSTITUENTS. MAKE THE CHOICE
LET THEM HAVE A CHOICE I
SUPPORT THIS AND URGES SUPPORT
A CA FIVE. THANK YOU MISS
COOPER MISS CARILLO. YOU ARE
RECOGNIZED IN THE REAR OF THE
CHAMBER. THANK YOU MISTER
SPEAKER AND MEMBER SINCE THE
ELDER MILLENNIAL CAUCUSES IS
ADMITTING THEIR AGES I'LL SHARE
THAT I WAS BORN IN NINETEEN
EIGHTY I WILL BE FORTY IN
AUGUST. THE YEAR THAT I WAS
BORN IS THE YEAR THAT THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA BEGAN INVESTING
IN THE PRISON SYSTEM. IN TWO
YEARS PRIOR THROUGH PROP
THIRTEEN BEGAN THE PROCESS OF
THE FUNDING PUBLIC EDUCATION.
SINCE NINETEEN EIGHTY. THE
STATE HAS BUILT MORE THAN
TWENTY NEW PRESENCE AND ONLY
THREE CS USE. IT IS MY
GENERATION OF STUDENTS. AND
THOSE THAT FOLLOWED THAT
HAPPENED FUNNELED THROUGH A
VERY REAL SCHOOL TO PRISON
PIPELINE. I ATTENDED ROOSEVELT
HIGH SCHOOL IN BOYLE HEIGHTS MY
HIGH SCHOOL HAD FIVE THOUSAND
STUDENTS THREE DIFFERENT
TRACKS. I HAVE SHARED IN THE
PAST THAT IN ELEVENTH GRADE I
DROPPED OUT. BUT IWAS LUCKY.
THAT I HAD THE SUPPORT OF MY
HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL WHOM
WE'VE HONORED ON THIS FLOOR.
MISTRUST KEEL AND I WAS ABLE TO
GRADUATE ON TIME AND WITH MY
CLASS. IN NINETEEN NINETY EIGHT
I PROBABLY WALKED SHRINE
AUDITORIUM IN LOS ANGELES AND
MY RED CAP AND GOWN. IT'S ONE
OF THE MOST SIGNIFICANT MOMENT
OF MY ENTIRE LIFE. AT THE TIME
I DIDN'T KNOW THAT TWO YEARS
PRIOR WHEN I WAS JUST SIXTEEN.
THE VOTERS IN CALIFORNIA
PRODUCT PASSED PROP TWO OH NINE.
REMOVING ANY OPPORTUNITY I
WOULD HAVE HAD IN ATTENDING THE
UNIVERSITY. I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND
WHAT IT MEANT TO BE AN
IMMIGRANT TO BE FORMALLY
UNDOCUMENTED TO BE AN ENGLISH
LEARNER TO COME FROM A LOW
INCOME FAMILY OR WHAT IT MEANT
TO GROW UP IN A NEIGHBORHOOD
RIDDLED WITH GANG VIOLENCE AND
LACK OF OPPORTUNITIES AND JOBS.
AFTER GRADUATING HIGH SCHOOL A
FEW YEARS LATER. I MADE MY WAY
THROUGH EAST LA COMMUNITY
COLLEGE FEW YEARS LATER CAL
STATE LA. AND A FEW YEARS AFTER
THAT U. S. C. FOR GRAD SCHOOL.
IT WORKED THE ENTIRE TIME. AND
OFTEN PAID FOR BOOKS I DIDN'T
HAVE TIME TO READ. I AM A FIRST
GENERATION AMERICAN. THE FIRST
ONE IN MY FAMILY TO GO TO
COLLEGE AND THERE ARE SO MANY
MORE LIKE ME. WHO DESERVE
ENOUGH WHICH AN OPPORTUNITY TO
REACH OUR FULL POTENTIAL. I
WANT TO THANK MY COLLEAGUE FROM
SAN DIEGO. ASSEMBLY MEMBER
WEBER FOR HER DECADES LONG
FIGHT FOR KIDS LIKE ME. THANK
YOU. I AM A PRODUCT DOCTOR
WEBER OF YOUR FLIGHT. THERE IS
A NEW GENERATION OF
CALIFORNIANS WHOSE VOICE SHOULD
BE HEARD WHO BELIEVE THE PROP
TWO ONE NINE WAS AND CONTINUES
TO BE BAD POLICY. WHO WANT TO
PROVIDE A BETTER FUTURE FOR
THEMSELVES AND FOR GENERATIONS
TO COME. MEMBERS I ENCOURAGE
YOU TO VOTE ON AC A FIVE AND
ALLOW THE VOTERS OF OUR STATE
THE OPPORTUNITY FOR THE
CALIFORNIA UP TO DATE. AND THE
INCLUSIVE AND EQUITABLE
CALIFORNIA UP TOMORROW THAT IS
DESERVING OF THE FORTY MILLION
PEOPLE THE CALL CALIFORNIA
HOME. THANK YOU. THANK YOU MISS
CARILLO. MISTER LOW YOU ARE
RECOGNIZED. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
MISTER SPEAKER AND MEMBERS- I
WON'T OF REFLECT BACK ON
NINETEEN NINETY SIX AS A
PREVIOUS SPEAKERS HAVE DONE SO
AS A LONG TIME AGO I WAS STILL
DATING WOMEN BACK THEN- AND
THAT WAS VERY VERY LONG TIME
AGO- SO WE'LL JUST LEAVE IT AT
THAT MUCH HAS CHANGED. OKAY SO
BUT NOW THAT I GOT THAT OUT OF
THE WAY. I STAND YOU WITH
SIGNIFICANT MIXED EMOTION. OF
SADNESS. A DEEP ANGER
FRUSTRATION. IN CONFLICT.
YOU'VE HEARD EARLIER ABOUT THIS
NOTION ABOUT WE'RE ALL IN THIS
TOGETHER JUSTICE FOR ALL.
NINETY BELIEVE IN THAT JUSTICE
IS ONE JUSTICE TO ALL. BUT WE
MUST DO THAT COLLECTIVELY. AND
THIS IS A DIFFICULT
CONVERSATION ABOUT RACE BUT IT
NEEDS TO BE HAD BECAUSE WE ARE
A MICROCOSM OF OUR ELECTRIC.
AND IT CAN'T IT BE DONE IN
ISOLATION. YOUR HEARD FROM THE
AUTHOR THAT THIS LEGISLATION
HAS GREAT SUPPORT FROM MANY
CAUCUSES. NO THAT ONE CAUCUS
THAT'S MISSING. THE API CAUCUS.
WHY WE'RE NOT HAVING A FRANK
CONVERSATION ABOUT THIS. WHY IS
THERE SUCH RESISTANCE WHY IS
NOT A SINGLE A PACK CAUCUS
MEMBER A CO AUTHOR OF THIS
LEGISLATION. BECAUSE OF THIS
DEEP. FEAR THAT WE WILL LOSE
THAT WE WILL LOSE SEATS. AND
HOW DO WE RECONCILE THIS
CONVERSATION ABOUT DEEP PAIN
AND RACE AND CHALLENGES THAT
EXIST THROUGH DIALOGUE. AND I
SUBMIT TO YOU THERE IS BEEN AN
ABSOLUTE ABSENCE OF THAT
DIALOGUE. COLLEAGUES I WAS NOT
EVEN GIVING THE DIGNITY NOT
GIVEN THE DIGNITY. OF HAVING A
CONVERSATION WITH THE AUTHOR
ABOUT THIS THE CHAIR OF THE
CALIFORNIA LEGISLATIVE BLACK
CAUCUS HAS NOT COME TO ME TO
ASK ME FOR MY VOTE. NOT A TEXT
MESSAGE ALL NOT A MEDIA REQUEST
NOTHING. AND THAT IS EMBLEMATIC
A PART OF THIS PROBLEM. WE
CAN'T DO THIS IN ISOLATION. YES
WE HAVE A MORAL COMPASS. WE
MUST HAVE CONVERSATIONS
DIFFICULT ONES EVEN WITH THOSE
COMMUNITIES IN OPPOSITION.
BECAUSE ALL THIS TOGETHER RIGHT
WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER.
AND LET'S THINK ABOUT SORT OF
THIS MITCHELL. AN UNCONDITIONAL
ALLY SHIP IT IS MUTUAL IT IS TO
WAIT. AND I SHARE CONVERSATIONS
ABOUT THE DIFFICULTY OF THIS
BECAUSE- I WAS IT JUST DIRECTOR
FOR PAUL FONG WHO IS THE
CHAIRMAN OF THE API LEGISLATIVE
CAUCUS WHEN THIS FIRST CAME
ABOUT. WHO BY THE WAY
SUBSEQUENTLY LOST HIS NEXT
ELECTION BECAUSE OF THIS VOTE.
SO DOES COME POLITICAL PERIL.
BUT I DO NOT RUN FOR OFFICE FOR
SELF PRESERVATION. BUT I BEGIN
TO WONDER THEN WHY IS IT THAT
SO MANY IN MY COMMUNITY ARE IN
OPPOSITION. AREN'T YOU YELLOW.
WHY ARE YOU VOTING AGAINST YOUR
OWN PEOPLE. WHY ARE YOU
PORTRAYING US. THESE ARE FROM
SITTING ELECTED OFFICIALS
TELLING THIS IN MY DISTRICT AND
I WANT TO KNOW IF THIS WAS TRUE
OF THE ENTIRE DISTRICT. BECAUSE
I'VE HAD NINETY NINE CALLS AND
EMAILS IN SUPPORT. AND A
WHOPPING THREE THOUSAND AND
SEVEN HUNDRED IN OPPOSITION.
THIRTY SEVEN TO ONE. YOU MIGHT
THINK OKAY THEY'RE OUT OF THE
DISTRICT WEISSMAN SOMETIMES
LIKE LOOK ABSOLUTELY THE
REGISTERED VOTERS THE REAL
PEOPLE. REAL OPPOSITION SO ONE
OF MY TO DO. WITHOUT EVEN
HAVING THE DECENCY OF A
CONVERSATION TO DISCUSS
DIFFICULTIES OF RACE. AND THIS
INSTITUTION. HAS THE MECHANISMS
TO ENSURE THAT WE ARE TALKING
TO EACH OTHER AND IF WE CAN'T
EVEN HAVE THESE TOUGH
CONVERSATIONS WHAT DO YOU
THINK'S GOING TO HAPPEN IN THE
ELECTORATE. IN WHICH
INDIVIDUALS ARE GOING TO BE
TALKING IN ISOLATION. SO WHY IS
THIS. THE CASE. IT'S ABOUT
POWER IT'S ABOUT FEARS ABOUT
RACE ABOUT THE LOSS OF POWER
AGE WAS ROUNDER'S PARTICULAR
THE CHINESE COMMUNITY FEAR THE
LOSS OF GOOD HARD WORKING
PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE THAT IF YOU
DO THE HARD WORK AS YOUR TOLD.
THEY WILL HAVE THE CHANCE AS
WELL TO. MANY OF THEM GOING TO
DEBT BECAUSE OF THE VALUE OF
EDUCATION THAT'S A CULTURAL
THING. SO IF WE UNDERSTAND. THE
REALITIES NO ASIAN BECAUSE OF
UNDER CAUCUS SUPPORT OUR AS
AUTHORS CO AUTHORS OF THIS BILL
THE CLOCK IS MISSING AND WE'VE
SEEN WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE EIGHT
YEARS AGO NOTHING HAS CHANGED
IN TERMS OF THE CONVERSATIONS
THE DIFFICULTY OF THE
CONVERSATIONS. SO WHY IS THAT
THE CASE THAT SO MANY BELIEVE
THIS. MANY IN THE COMMUNITY ARE
RECENT IMMIGRANTS. THEY DON'T
UNDERSTAND. THEY DON'T SEND THE
CHALLENGES OF OTHER COMMUNITIES
THAT'S WHY BY THE WAY WE NEED
MANDATORY ETHNIC STUDIES SO WE
CAN LEARN ABOUT THE HISTORY OF
ALL OF US AS A CULTURE SO YOU
REMEMBER THE UNCANNY PARALLELS
WITH THE CHINESE EXCLUSION ACT
LAW OF NINETEEN THIRTEEN WHICH
FOR BID ASIAN AMERICANS FROM.
OWNING PROPERTY. OR EVEN IN MY
COMMITTEE. THE DISCRIMINATION
WITH PROPOSITION EIGHT IN TWO
THOUSAND AND EIGHT WHICH
ELIMINATE THE RIGHTS OF SAME
SEX COUPLES TO MARRY. AND THE
MESSAGE IS ACTUALLY REALLY
CLEAR TO ASIA PROVIDERS YOU
WANT THE BEST WAY TO GET. YOUR
CHILD YOUR KID AND HIGHER
EDUCATION GO TO COMMUNITY
COLLEGE WE HAVE PROPERTY
TRANSFERS. AND BY THE WAY AT
THE END OF COMMITTEE CALL IT'S
LIKE MINE IN MY COMMUNITY 79%
TRANSFER RATES THE UC SYSTEM
THAT'S THE BEST WAY. TO GET IT.
SO ABSOLUTELY IT'S APPROPRIATE
FOR US TO TALK ABOUT. THESE
CONVERSATIONS THESE ISSUES.
IT'S DIFFICULT TO HAVE RACE
NEUTRAL POLICIES FOR VERY VERY
SPECIFIC PROBLEMS. THIRTY
SECONDS MR LOW. AND SO TODAY MY
VOTE WILL BE BASED SOLELY ON MY
CONSCIENCE AND MY COMMITMENT TO
MY CONVICTION AND AS WE STARTED
THIS CONVERSATION TODAY WITH
THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE FOR
LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL.
TECHNICIAN LOW THANK YOU
MEMBERS. MISTER SPEAKER YOUR
RECOGNITION OR THE CHAMBER
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER
MEMBERS I WANT TO THANK ALL THE
MEMBERS FOR A VIGOROUS- DEBATE
TODAY- PROPOSITION TWO OH NINE
ALONG WITH PROPOSITION ONE
EIGHTY SEVEN WITH THE TWO-
MOMENTS IN CALIFORNIA HISTORY
THAT REALLY LED TO MY
POLITICAL. AWAKENING TODAY I
THOUGHT BOTH WERE BAD IDEAS AND
I THINK- I STILL THINK BOTH ARE
BAD IDEAS. TODAY THANKS TO THE
AUTHOR WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY
TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT ONE OF
THOSE TWO VERY BAD IDEAS. AND
TODAY IS BEYOND TIME TO DO
SOMETHING ABOUT IT. REALITY IS
FINALLY CATCHING UP WITH THOSE
WHO HOLDING GRAIN
MISCONCEPTIONS OF RACE AND
GENDER RELATIONS. WE KNOW NOW
THAT SAYING WE ARE RACE COLOR
BLIND IS THE SAME AS SAYING WE
ARE BLIND TO HISTORY. THE SAME
WAY THAT SO MANY HAVE BEEN
BLIND TO POLICE BRUTALITY. TO
SAY THAT FEMINISM MEANS
TREATING WOMEN EXACTLY THE SAME
AS MEN. IS THE DENIAL OF THE
LONG TIME AFFECTS. A TURKEY. WE
CAN LEARN FROM THE PAST. AND WE
MUST KEEP LEARNING. EACH OF US
CAME INTO THIS WORLD WITH THE
SAME INTRINSIC VALUE. BUT
SOCIAL NORMS AN IMPLICIT BIAS
HAVE TIPPED THE SCALES AGAINST
US AND WE HAVE SEEN RESEARCH
OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN
THAT BEARS THIS OUT. WE MUST
ALLOW FOR SOLUTIONS. THAT
PROVIDE A COUNTERBALANCE TO
UNFAIR ADVANTAGES. WE CAN BE
FAIR. WE CAN DIGEST WE CAN MOVE
FORWARD. BUT PROPOSITION TWO OH
NINE STANDS IN OUR WAY. I ASK
YOUR RIVALS RACY ACA FIVE.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER.
DOCTOR WEBER. YOU MAY CLOSE.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER AND
THANKS TO SO MANY OF YOU WHO
HAVE STOOD IN SPOKEN TODAY AND-
HAVE EXPRESSED YOUR CONCERN OF
YOUR INTERESTS THE IN THIS. WE
BEGIN BY FIRST OF ALL SAYING
THAT IT WAS NOT MY DESIRE TO BE
THE PRIMARY AUTHOR ON A CA FIVE.
OF IT WAS A GROUP THING AND I
HOPE THAT SOMEONE ELSE WOULD
BASICALLY LEAD THE CHARGE
BECAUSE I WOULD WAS EXHAUSTED
FROM LAST YEAR FROM THREE NINE
TWO AND SO I DIDN'T VOLUNTEER
TO CHEER THIS IT WAS A GROUP
THING THAT WE MET WITH
COMMUNITIES AND ORGANIZATIONS
AND SOMEHOW OR ANOTHER PEOPLE
JUST ASSUMED THAT I WAS THE
MAIN AUTHOR. AND AS A RESULT MY
NAME COMES FIRST EVEN ONE LAST
IN THE ALPHABET. WITH REGARD TO
THIS. SO FOR WHATEVER REASON A
IT WAS NOT MY INTENT TO DO THAT.
I WHEN I BEGAN MY PRESENTATION
TODAY I WAS GOING TO APOLOGIZE
TO MANY OF YOU. BECAUSE YOU
KNOW MY STRATEGY GENERALLY IS
TO TALK TO PEOPLE. TO TRY TO
GET TO YOU TO GET TO YOUR
OFFICE TO ACTUALLY HAVE A
CONVERSATION WITH YOU. AND A
SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF YOU I WAS
NOT ABLE TO DO THAT. MAINLY
BECAUSE WE WERE QUARANTINED AND
WE WERE HERE AND WE WERE THERE
AND TIME WAS RUNNING OUT AND SO
WE HAVE A VERY LIMITED AMOUNT
OF TIME. AND I HAD TO RELY UPON
OTHERS TO DO SOME OF THE
CONVERSATION FOR ME. THE API
COMMUNITY CHOSE THE CAUCUS
CHOSE TO DO ITS OWN
CONVERSATION WITH ITS MEMBERS.
AND SO THAT'S WHY YOU DIDN'T
NECESSARILY HEAR FROM ME. BUT
YOUR OWN MEMBERS CHOSE TO DO
THAT. AND THE SAME IS TRUE WITH
THE LATINO CAUCUS. BECAUSE
THERE WERE ALL THESE CAUCUSES
IN EACH ONE HAD A
RESPONSIBILITY TO GET ENGAGE
WITH THEIR PERSONS. AND COME
BACK TO ME AND TELL ME WHERE
THEY WORK. THE LAST I HEARD WAS
I WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE A
MEETING ORGANIZED WITH YOU. THE
MISTER GIBSON I BELIEVE IT WAS.
AND SOME OTHERS AND SO IT WAS
NOT THAT I WAS IGNORING YOU IS
THAT WE HAD A LIMITED AMOUNT OF
TIME COMING BACK. AND SO VERY
FEW OF YOU I HAD REALLY A
CHANCE TO REACH OUT TO. AND I
GOT THE INFORMATION FROM OTHERS
AND EVENTUALLY. GOT FOUND OUT
WHERE PEOPLE WERE WITH REGARD
TO SOMEONE APOLOGIZE AS I WAS
GOING TO BECAUSE- MY STRATEGY
HAS ALWAYS BEEN TO MEET IF YOU
INDIVIDUALLY. AND SO THAT WAS
THEN BEING TOLD WHO POTENTIALLY
I NEEDED TO CALL. BECAUSE WE
WERE RUNNING TIME AND NOT
BECAUSE I WAS TRYING TO IGNORE
ANYONE BUT I WAS GETTING
INFORMATION FROM VARIOUS
SOURCES. I SEE FOR DOES SOME OF
YOU I DIDN'T REACH OUT TO. BUT
WHEN YOU'VE GOT GET FIFTY FOUR.
AND YOU A VERY LIMITED OF TIME
WE HAVE TO MAXIMIZE. WHAT
YOU'RE DOING I HAD MUCH MORE
TIME WITH THREE NINE TWO. NINE
THREE ONE COMBINED AND ALL
THOSE KINDS OF THINGS. SO LET
ME THAT USE THAT SAY THAT THIS
WAS NOT MY INTENT TO DO THIS.
AND ONE OF THE REASONS OTHER
REASON IS BECAUSE- IT IS VERY
DIFFICULT. TO TALK ABOUT RACE.
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE A
PERSON WHO SEES IT EVERYWHERE
IT'S VERY HARD NOT TO SAY THERE
IS THERE IS THERE IS THERE IT
IS BECAUSE THEN YOU BECOME THE
PERSON WHO'S ALWAYS SO BREAKS
CONSCIOUS. PEOPLE START
AVOIDING YOU DISLIKING YOU SO I
TRY TO SAVE MY RACE
CONVERSATIONS FOR THE REAL BIG
RACE ISSUES. NOT THE LITTLE
ONES BECAUSE IF YOU DO THE
OTHER YOU'RE OVER PEOPLE BEGIN
TO AVOID YOU. AND THEN YOU
BECOME INEFFECTIVE AND YOUR
ABILITY TO TEACH THEM ABOUT THE
BIG THINGS AND SO I TRY NOT TO
BECAUSE OF THAT AND I TRIED NOT
TO ALSO BECAUSE IT'S VERY
PAINFUL FOR ME. A PERSON WHO'S
LIVED AS LONG AS I'VE LIVED.
I'M SEVENTY ONE I'LL BE SEVENTY
TWO IN SEPTEMBER. HAS LIVED AS
LONG AS I LIVE. HAS SEEN SO
MUCH TRY SO HARD TRY TO HELP
PEOPLE UNDERSTAND HOW I FEEL
WHAT I SEE IN MY CHILDREN AND
MY COMMUNITY WHAT I SEE MY
RELATIVES HOW I SEE THE HURT
AND THE PAIN THAT THEY FEEL IN
THE DISCRIMINATION THAT THEY'RE
INVOLVED WITH. AND SOME PEOPLE
THINK WELL YOU'VE GOT IT ALL
SURELY YOU KNOW YOU'VE GOT THE
CAREER YOU'VE GOT YOU KNOW A
SUCCESSFUL LIFE YOU'VE GOT THE
BIG HOUSE YOU'VE GOT ALL THESE
THINGS BUT I STILL HAVE FAMILY
MEMBERS THAT I STILL HAVE
NEIGHBORS I SEE SICK CHILDREN
AND I STILL WOULDN'T SCHOOLS
WHAT I SEE THAT THERE THE
FUTURE IS BLOCKED. AND I KNOW
THAT BUT FOR THE GRACE OF GOD
THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN ME.
BECAUSE BECAUSE IT'S IT BECAUSE
THAT'S WHAT IT IS IN TERMS OF
THE FAMILY THE RELATIVES THAT
YOU SEE. AND SO WHEN I HEAR
PEOPLE SAY YEAH I KNOW IT'S
THERE BUT I WANT TO DO THIS AND
I WANT TO DO THAT I WANT TO DO
IS I WANTED ALL THOSE THINGS TO.
AND YES WE MUST SARCHIE TO A
PROBLEM. WE MUST SO THAT'S WHY
IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO ME THAT WE
SAW THAT PROBLEM. BUT I'VE ALSO
LEARNED THAT IN THE PROCESS OF
THE STRUGGLE. BUT I CAN'T JUST
DO K. TWELVE. BECAUSE INTO THE
GENERATION UP YOU THIS I'M ALSO
LOSING. AS I'VE GOT TO HELP
THEM AS WELL. AND I'VE GOT TO
HELP PEOPLE GET INTO THAT AND
I'VE ALSO GOT TO HELP PEOPLE
GET CONTRACTS BECAUSE- I SEE
THE VISION. BEING KILLED IN THE
EYES OF YOUNG PEOPLE WHEN THEY
CAN'T GET THESE CONTRACTS OF
THESE JOBS. I SEE THE FACT THAT
WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH- KIDS OF
COLOR NOW IN A PRINT YOUR
PROGRAM. SO WHEN I GO ON WORK
SITES I SEE. ALMOST VERY FEW.
AFRICAN A- ITS OWN. LETTING TO
PRINT YOUR PROGRAM. WITH THERE
IS NO. OF REACH THEM TO. INTO
THE- IN SO WE HAVE CONSTRUCTION
A THIS THE PEOPLE CALL ME THE
CAP SAYS NO AFTER AMERICAN BILL
THAT BUILDING ACROSS THE STREET.
AND WE HAD TO GO TO THE
GOVERNOR AND WE HAVE NO PROGRAM
TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT HAPPENS
OF THIS DIVERSITY ON A WORK
SITE. AND SO EVENTUALLY WILL
REALIZE AHA THERE'S NO AFRICAN
AMERICAN SO THAT WHEN FOUND
THREE OF THEM WHO ARE. WELL
QUALIFIED TO DO IRON WORK ON ON
THE BUILDING ACROSS THE STREET.
THESE ARE THE THINGS THAT I SEE
IN A DIFFICULT TO EXPLAIN. BUT
I DO KNOW THAT WHEN I WORKED
UNDER NEATH AFFIRMATIVE ACTION
AND I SPENT THOSE YEARS AT THE
UNIVERSITY I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY
TO HELP PEOPLE. I KNOW THAT MY
PROFESSOR HELPED ME THAT HAD HE
NOT BEEN ON THE CAMPUS OF UCLA
I WOULD NEVER BEEN A WHICH WILL
SOON FOLLOW. I WOULD HAVE NEVER
GONE TO GRADUATE SCHOOL. AS IT
WOULD TOO MANY OTHER PEOPLE
PULLING ME AWAY BUT HE WAS
THERE AS THE AFRICAN AMERICAN
ON CAMPUS TO HELP US. NAVIGATE
HE DIDN'T TAKE MY TEST HE COULD
WRITE MY DISSERTATION HE
COULDN'T DO THOSE THINGS BUT HE
COULD ENCOURAGE ME TO CONTINUE
TO MOVE FORWARD. HE COULD BE A
ROLE MODEL FOR ME IF YOU COULD
LIFT ME UP WHEN TIMES ARE
DIFFICULT AS THEY TRIED TO PUT
ME OUT OF SCHOOL. AND YET I
HAVE A HIGH GPA IN THE
DEPARTMENT GRADUATED EARLY THAN
ANYBODY ELSE. AND YET THE
RACISM OF THE WHITE MALE. PART
AND WANTED TO DESTROY ME AND
THEY MADE EVERY EFFORT TO TRY
TO DO IT. AND WHAT NOT FOR THIS
THIS GENTLEMAN WHO WAS A
SCHOLAR. AND A ROLE MODEL FOR
ME THEY WOULD HAVE DONE THAT.
AND SO I HAD A COMMITMENT WHEN
I BEGAN TO TEACH THAT I HAD TO
OPEN THESE DOORS EVERY YOUNG
PERSON I EVER SAW. TO MAKE SURE
OF THAT. NOT ONLY AFRICAN
AMERICAN STUDENTS BUT I BELIEVE
THE WHITE STUDENTS WHO CAME
INTO MY CLASS A BETTER PEOPLE
RIGHT NOW. BECAUSE OF THE
DIVERSITY THAT WAS IN THAT
CLASSROOM. THEY HAVE FRIENDS IT
DIDN'T LOOK LIKE THEM THAT WE
COULD CHALLENGE SIMILAR FOUGHT
TO MAKE AN CHALLENGE US. AND
THEY GREW FROM SIMPLY BEING IN
THE MIDST OF THEM AND IT MADE
CALIFORNIA IT MADE A UNIVERSAL
MAKE CALIFORNIA A BETTER PLACE
FOR PEOPLE TO BE. SO WHEN WE
START TALKING ABOUT THIS IS
EVERYTHING. IT IS NOT JUST
GETTING IN THE UNIVERSITY. IT'S
HAVING SUPPORT SYSTEMS WHY YOU
BETTER KEEP YOU THERE. IS
COMMITTING A STANDARD YOU
DIDN'T A RESPONSE. TO DO
LIKEWISE. THAT WHEN YOU WILL
HAVE A WORK SITE AND PEOPLE
COME TO THAT WORKS LIKE THAT IS
SO DIFFERENT. THAT'S WHAT YOU
WALK ABOUT WAS HE YOU WALK OFF
SINCE. YOU SEE STREET. TO THE
MY THIS. BUT YOU KNOW I ALSO
DID I TELL ALL MY- THAT THEY
HAD A HIGH BLACKS. AND THE- IS
TO. THERE IS A WHEN YOU INTO
OFFICES. CUT SANDY. EVERYBODY
HAS A THESE WERE BLACK. WORK AT
OFFICE THAT NAY DID THE BEFORE.
WHY BECAUSE THAT IS A- SO I HAD
YOU TODAY TO GIVE CAL. A CHANGE.
GIVE A THE OPPORTUNITY TO VOTE
ON THIS IS A NOT BUT JUST THAT
WE GOT TO HAVE A- BUT THAT. IN
A- NEEDS TO KNOW WHAT. AND THE
RE. INTO FOR THIS QUE. TO
BERKELEY WHEN I. MY CAN. TIME
IN. IT YOU WANT TO REPEAL PROP
BLOOM. THINK ABOUT WHAT WOULD
DO WE HAVE A UNIQUE
OPPORTUNITY. A UNIQUE
OPPORTUNITY. AND I WAS SO
GRATEFUL I DIDN'T HAVE TO
CONVINCE YOU THAT RACISM IS
REAL BECAUSE- GEORGE FOR DID
THAT. SO THAT WAS ONE
CONVERSATION THAT I DIDN'T HAVE
TO HAVE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. WE
HAVE TO ADMIT IT IS REAL. AND
IT IS THERE THAT IS PRESENT AND
IN THE PAST NOT JUST THE LIVES
OF AFRICAN AMERICANS WITH
EVERYONE IN THIS COUNTRY. AND
AS A LEGISLATURE WE HAVE A
RESPONSIBILITY TO FIGURE OUT
EVERY WAY THAT WE POSSIBLY CAN
TO IMPACT THAT AND IT WOULD NOT
BE ONE THING. TWO NINE THE
REMOVING TOLD I WILL NOT SOLVE
ALL THE PROBLEMS. BUT IT'S ONE
OF THE MANY TOOLS THAT WE HAVE
TO HAVE A CALIFORNIA TO SAY
CALIFORNIA IS THE LAND OF GREAT
OPPORTUNITY. AND THOSE WHO CAME
HERE IS IDEA THREE YEARS OLD
THEY CAME HERE BECAUSE THEY
KNEW THEY COULD GET BETTER
THINGS YOU THAN THEY COULD IN
MISSISSIPPI AND ALABAMA IN
OTHER PLACES LIKE THAT. BUT THE
SUN WAS SHINING BRIGHTER IN
CALIFORNIA. AND THEIR FUTURE
WOULD BE BRIGHTER AS WELL. I
