Bay Area Reporter :: Gay California insurance czar Lara launches reelection bid

California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara, the first LGBTQ person to win election to statewide office in the Golden State, officially declared Friday his intention to seek a second four-year term in 2022. The gay former state lawmaker from Los Angeles has faced a bumpy first term with self-imposed gaffes and continues to be a lightning rod for criticism from various groups. But he also has seemed to grow into his role since being sworn into office in January 2019, when he was hailed as our own Latino Harvey Milk by former state lawmaker Art Torres, who came out of the closet in 2009 after leading the California Democratic Party as its longtime chair. Torres, who lost his own bid to become state insurance commissioner in 1994, was referring to the late gay San Francisco supervisor who was the first out person elected to public office in California in 1977.

CA Assembly committee advances school accountability bill that charter schools oppose

Print A bill that aims to fix loopholes that have allowed cases of charter school fraud in California passed a key Assembly committee Wednesday. The state Assembly Education Committee voted 5-2 to advance the bill to the Appropriations Committee. The education committee’s only Republican members, Kevin Kiley (R-Rocklin) and Megan Dahle (R-Nevada City), voted no. Education Committee Chair Patrick O’Donnell (D-Long Beach) has said he introduced AB 1316 to prevent future charter school scandals, including ones like the A3 charter school case, in which operators of the online charter school network manipulated enrollment numbers to fraudulently obtain hundreds of millions of state education dollars. The sweeping bill contains a variety of measures that mostly address online charter school accountability, finance and operations.
