It's not clear yet which Democrat Newsom might pick, but he's pledged to elevate a Black woman to temporarily fill Feinstein's seat.
The race to replace the now-late Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein was already well underway before her death Thursday night at age 90. 
Feinstein announced in February that she would step down at the end of her current term in early 2025, creating a wide-open Democratic primary and prompting California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) to reaffirm a pledge he made in 2021 to appoint a Black woman to fill any future Senate vacancies. It’s not clear yet who that appointee might be, but Newsom is expected to move quickly, given Democrats’ slim 50-49 majority without Feinstein, who died after months of declining health.
Names of up-and-coming Black officeholders tossed out include San Francisco Mayor London Breed and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass — the first Black women to lead either of their respective cities — as well as Secretary of State Shirley Weber, who replaced Alex Padilla when he became a senator. An appointment to the Senate, however, would mean giving up their current offices for a yearlong stint in Washington.

BREAKING: CA Secretary of State Rejects Call to Boot Donald Trump From Primary Ballot
Tumblr media
California Secretary of State Shirley Weber has released the official list of certified candidates for the state's upcoming primary, and Donald Trump's name is included.
Certified List of Candidate... by Jennifer Van Laar
Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis, a Democrat, asked Newsom-appointee Weber to "explore every legal option" to keep Trump off the ballot on December 20, specifically referencing the Colorado Supreme Court's decision to remove Trump from that state's ballot. 
Weber had already been asked by Democrats in the California Assembly earlier in the year to "explore every legal option" to keep Trump off the primary ballot, but apparently after the Colorado decision Kounalakis decided to try her hand. On December 22 Weber replied to Kounalakis' letter, and while she slammed Trump she also low-key slammed Kounalakis, who claimed in her original letter to Weber that a candidate for president must be at least 40 years old. Weber said her decision would not be based on politics but on her "commitment to follow the rule of law."
"The former President's conduct tainted and continues to sow the public's mistrust in government and the legitimacy of elections, so it is more critical than ever to safeguard elections in a way that transcends political divisions. "Removing a candidate from the ballot under Section Three of the Fourteenth Amendment is not something my office takes lightly and is not as simple as the requirement that a person be at least 35 years old to be president. ... "I am guided by my commitment to follow the rule of law. Our commitment to and respect for the rule of law has, and will continue to guide, our course in this matter. Adherence to this fundamental principle -- so essential in our democracy -- even in the face of public pressure, will help inspire confidence in our elections and our election processes." 
The next day Gov. Gavin Newsom agreed with Weber in a prepared statement, saying that the state should wait until the U.S. Supreme Court rules on the issue before taking action.
....[I]n a Friday afternoon statement, Newsom telegraphed to his fellow California Democrats not to get ahead of the U.S. Supreme Court, which will almost certainly be the final arbiter of that decision.  “There is no doubt that Donald Trump is a threat to our liberties and even to our democracy,” Newsom said, “but in California, we defeat candidates at the polls. Everything else is a political distraction.”
California's primary will be held on March 5, 2024.

[ad_1] California Gov. Gavin Newsom will be tasked with appointing a replacement for the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein which will mean the governor has handpicked all of the most powerful positions in the Golden State.Sen. Feinstein died at the age of 90 on Friday meaning that Newsom will appoint someone to fill out the rest of her term after he appointed then Secretary of State Alex Padilla to replace Sen. Kamala Harris in 2021.In addition to appointing California’s two senators, Newsom nominated Padilla’s replacement as secretary of state, Shirley Weber, as well as the state’s attorney general.  Newsom nominated Alameda Assembly member Rob Bonta as attorney general in 2021 to replace Xavier Becerra who moved to the Biden administration to serve as HHS Secretary. Earlier this year, Newsom committed to appointing a Black woman to the U.S. Senate if Feinstein were to pass away. But he recently said that if he needed to name a Senate replacement, he would appoint a caretaker.NEWSOM CLAIMS DESANTIS TOOK 'BAIT' IN AGREEING TO DEBATE 'GUY WHO ISN'T EVEN RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT' California Gov. Gavin Newsom (Tayfun Coskun)"Yes. Interim appointment. I don’t want to get involved in the primary," Newsom said earlier this month in an NBC News interview. "It would be completely unfair to the Democrats that have worked their tail off. That primary is just a matter of months away. I don’t want to tip the balance of that."NEWSOM'S LONGTIME TIES TO HUNTER BIDEN EMERGE AFTER HE JUSTIFIES HIS BUSINESS DEALS: 'HERE'S MY DIRECT EMAIL' The Fresno County, California sheriff and District Attorney slammed Gov. Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., for signing new gun control measures this week. (AP Photo/Rich Pedroncelli)CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"I hope Gavin Newsom chooses a Senator based on performance, not politics. He’s not off to a good start with his promise to exclude a huge number of qualified candidates based on nothing more than their race and gender,"  James Gallagher, California Assembly Republican Leader, told Fox News Digital. "Whoever he chooses must be laser focused on addressing the crises of inflation, homelessness and crime, not chasing the national spotlight or picking divisive political fights." Fox News Digital’s Paul Steinhauser contributed to this report  Andrew Mark Miller is a reporter at Fox News.

Advocates ‘Livid’ After Local Assemblymember Pulls Bill to Help Black Students
AB 2774 would have directed additional funding to the state’s lowest-performing student group. The governor added an “equity multiplier” proposal to his budget, but some of those who supported the original bill feel it’s not enough.
Last February, Assemblymember Akilah Weber introduced AB 2774. The bill was something of a redux of efforts made by Weber’s mother, California Secretary of State Shirley Weber, to improve the performance of Black students. The elder Weber introduced similar bills when she served in the same seat now occupied by her daughter.
The bill would’ve required the state superintendent to determine which group of students that don’t currently receive supplemental funding via the state’s Local Control Funding Formula is the lowest performing on state standardized tests and directed additional funds to them. For decades, the lowest performing student group in California has been Black children. According to the latest state standardized test scores, around 70 percent of Black students don’t meet state standards in reading, and around 84 percent don’t meet state standards in math.
Weber’s bill would’ve directed around $400 million to Black students in California who don’t already receive additional funding.
AB 2774 was widely popular with lawmakers, but ultimately Weber pulled it at the eleventh hour after Gov. Gavin Newsom expressed concerns that its targeting funds to a specific group of students would violate a state constitutional amendment that prevents preferential treatment in public education based on race. Newsom instead included in his budget a plan that would direct funds towards just a fraction of the Black children the bill would have otherwise targeted.
Proponents of AB 2774 like Debra Watkins, who for nearly 50 years has advocated for Black students in California, pointed out that Weber’s bill didn’t even mention race. Instead, it focused on the lowest performing subgroup for additional funds. The money, in other words, wouldn’t have been exclusively tied to Black students.
When Watkins, whose organization A Black Education Network joined the Black in School coalition and others in advocating for AB 2774, heard that Weber had pulled the bill, she was livid.
“What Dr. Weber did felt like a betrayal to all those children, and to the coalition,” Watkins said.
Tumblr media
She’d hoped that, at the very least, Newsom would be forced to veto the bill, at which point she and others had planned to sue on the grounds that decades of discrimination have led to low performance among Black students and that none of the interventions implemented have rectified that issue.
“It seems like a failure in leadership to me,” Watkins said. “I feel as though she let the Black students down — they’re voiceless, they don’t have any power.”
Watkins doesn’t believe the compromise proposal that took the place of Weber’s bill — an “equity multiplier” in the governor’s budget — actually does the work AB 2774 was meant to do. The equity multiplier is a functionally different approach to the problem, because rather than targeting the lowest-performing student group specifically — Black students — it would instead add $300 million to the Local Control Funding Formula to target low-income schools. It would also expand oversight of how funding is impacting student groups that are low-performing. But, Watkins said, low-performing Black students aren’t isolated in low-income schools.
“Even in San Diego, where you have high-performing schools, when you disaggregate the data on how the black and brown kids are doing in those high-performing schools, (their scores) are still low,” Watkins said.
The $300 million allocated to the equity multiplier would only reach about 25 percent of the students Weber’s bill would have targeted. Under the new plan around 18,000 Black students would benefit from the funds. AB 2774 would have reached the around 80,000 Black students who don’t already receive supplemental funding.
While she doesn’t question Weber’s decision, Ellen Nash, the chair of the San Diego chapter of the Black American Political Association of California, one of the organizations that joined the Black in School coalition, said she was “very disappointed and surprised” when she saw the equity multiplier proposal. For Black families like hers, who are not low-income but whose children nonetheless experience wide achievement gaps in public schools, the proposal solves none of the problems Weber’s bill would have.
“I was shocked that a (program) that was based on data and facts wasn’t supported, particularly because it had gone all the way through the legislature and the senate and … then [when] the superintendent of instruction signed on, I was like, ‘Okay, this is, this is a no brainer,’” Nash said.
Akilah Weber declined an interview request but pointed to a statement her office released. “I believe this proposal is a step in the right direction but as we all know, details matter. I look forward to working with the stakeholders to ensure this process works for our highest-needs students,” Weber wrote.
Not all Black leaders have the same misgivings. All but one member of the California Legislative Black Caucus signed on to a recent statement that reads “we believe the Governor’s Budget Proposal to be aligned with our priorities to increase academic performance for African American students and look forward to working with the Governor, the Senate and Assembly leaders on refining these proposals with stakeholders that have been fighting for the students for decades.”
For Nash, this is something of an inflection point. Given the failure of AB 2774, she’s not hopeful another bill like it will gain traction statewide, and that it’s now up to local education agencies to ensure better outcomes for Black students. And if public schools don’t improve outcomes for Black students, Nash said parents may look for other options.
“The other elephant in the room is there’s data showing that Black kids perform better in charter schools. Parents like myself and others, we’re going to … do whatever we have to to make sure our kids get a quality education,” Nash said. *Reposted article from the VOSD by Jakob McWhinney on February 15, 2023
