The California statehouse has edged perilously close to losing ALL its Black women serving in the State Legislature. We need a fuller bench.
There is no equal representation without Black women in robust numbers, and there is no justice without a progressive values commitment. We have to bring an intersectional lens to closing the gender gap.
That's why Close the Gap California’s recruiting strategy is more important than ever. We need a robust pipeline of diverse, progressive women ready to fill open seats as soon as they come available in order to win big in the Motherlode cycles from 2022-2028 and achieve gender balance in the California Legislature by 2028.
