Gavin Newsom in Sacramento and help Democrats everywhere win in 2022.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris, who never said the word \"Republican,\" touted the Biden administration's $2 trillion American Jobs Plan, stressing the importance of investing in access to affordable broadband, clean drinking water, clean energy and what she called \"the care infrastructure,\" which includes affordable child care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11870960\" label=\"Recall history\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier Saturday, former Gov.

The campaigns for and against the recall are not subject to campaign contribution limits, and Newsom is taking full advantage of that, accepting donations as large as $250,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The election, expected to occur later this year, likely in November, will be just the second time in state history that voters will determine whether a sitting governor should be booted out before a regularly scheduled election.

However, I strongly believe that this measure meets constitutional requirements and will be held up in court. Significant research has shown the importance of adding women to boards to improve profitability and add to the economic well-being of the state, as well the interest of the state to advance gender equality.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The law itself does appear to have spurred some companies to add women to their boards. Skechers, Stamps.com and TiVo, for instance, all named women to previously all-male boards after SB 826’s passage; they and several other companies contacted for this story did not respond or issued a “no comment” to requests for interviews.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Betsy Berkhemer-Credaire, 2020 Women on Boards\"]'We’ve already won the hearts and minds of corporations and good-governance leaders throughout the country.

More than one-third of the companies had added a female director by the end of the 2019 proxy season. Companies that did not cooperate faced TIAA opposition via proxy votes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The long-running failure of some technology companies to include women on their boards helped to fuel support for the mandate. Twitter, the social networking entity founded in San Francisco in 2006, tweeted the naming of its first female director in November 2013, days after becoming a public company. Diversity proponents had disparaged the company for having a board consisting only of white men, including three directors named Peter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One company that determinedly maintained an all-male board, until recently, was Skechers.
