Good morning, everyone. Just a quick Flash today as I am giving an early-morning speech to Hispanics in Politics. Don’t tell them, but my topic is: “Asians. The new dominant minority.”
Speaking of Hispanics, some group called “The New America organization” (get it, there’s a new America!) is holding a presser today to demand the Legislature pass a driver’s privilege card bill.

Good morning, everyone. The Legislature is still two months away, but it is getting harder and harder to contain my anticipation for the first time in----decades. So many interesting dynamics, confirmed by the disclosure Monday of most of the Assembly committee chairs. The uneasy Marilyn Kirkpatrick-William Horne alliance. The Lucy Flores snub.

Assemblyman Paul Aizley will serve as Speaker Pro Tempore, while Assemblyman William Horne will serve as Majority Leader. Assemblyman Jason Frierson will serve as Assistant Majority Leader; Assemblyman David Bobzien will be Senior Majority Whip with...
Secretary of State Ross Miller may yet cause a national sensation – and it has nothing to do with his voter ID law.
Miller’s court case against Americans for Prosperity, a gigantic national conservative group founded by the Koch Brothers, could pull back the curtain on the organization’s donors. AFP spent a reported $33 million during Campaign 2012, according to Open Secrets. But, by federal law, as a 501C entity AFP does not have to disclose its donors.
To the Federal Election Commission, that...
