New State Senate Leader Earned an A on 2007 Racial Equity Report Card
Senator Darrel Steinberg (D-Oakland) was elected last week to replace Senate President Pro Tempore Don Perata at the end of the 2008 legislative session. Steinberg received a 95% for voting for racial equity legislation 100% of the time and for authoring SB 405 which required all counselors in participating schools to speak with all of their high school students about their college and career goals. The State Assembly will vote on a new Speaker on March 11.
