to argue against passage of Senate Constitutional Amendment (SCA) 5, which
proposes that the California Constitution be amended to permit public
schools, colleges, and universities in California to discriminate against,
or grant preferential treatment to, any individual or group on the basis of
race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin -- not only in admissions,
but also in employment and contracting. The American Civil Rights Coalition
writes, "In 1996 the people of California voted overwhelmingly to end race
preferences in public employment, public contracting, and public education.
They voted to raise the bar on Constitutional protections against
discrimination by bringing the 1964 Civil Rights Act to our state. In the 17
years Prop 209 has been in effect, California has led the way towards color
-blind government and increased graduation rates in Higher Education by
using race and gender neutral policies. Now SCA 5 seeks to roll back the
clock to an era of race conscious policies that treat students differently
based on their race or ethnicity." Senator Huff serves as the Senate
Republican Leader and represents the 29th Senate District covering portions
of Los Angeles, Orange and San Bernardino Counties. Follow Senator Huff on

Senate Republican Leader Bob Huff
Biography
Bob Huff serves as the Senate Republican Leader in the California State
Senate and represents the 29th Senate District covering portions of Los
Angeles, Orange and San Bernardino Counties. He is an experienced
businessman and an accomplished legislator who advocates for streamlining
government regulations that strangle job creation.
Senator Huff has had legislation signed into law guaranteeing more funding
for public charter schools. He has also led efforts to continue the Standard
Testing and Reporting (STAR) program for second graders and fought for
parents' right to choose the best school for their children. Senator Huff
has been a leader in expanding school choice for parents and students,
including two reauthorizations of the School District of Choice program, the
creation of the Open Enrollment Act and the nationally recognized “Parent
Trigger” law.
In 2010, Senator Huff had legislation signed into law that protects private
after school programs that tutor children in schoolwork, as well as teach
foreign language and culture. One of his proudest accomplishments is
getting SB 161 signed into law in 2011, which places the health and welfare
of California schoolchildren first, by allowing trained volunteers to
administer emergency medication to students with epilepsy when they suffer a
seizure at school. |
