Assemblywoman
Catharine Baker Has Earned Reelection
 - But It's Not Assured


  
East Bay Assemblywoman Catharine Baker has done an excellent job in her first term and deserves reelection.  However, she is under serious and deceptive attack and needs continued support.
 
Baker's votes with the Republican Caucus against tax increases have been vital to defeating $29 billion worth of tax increases proposed by Democrats.  Baker's 2014 victory from a swing district was key to breaking the two-thirds supermajority of the Democrats in the state Assembly.
  
Catharine Baker has had tremendous legislative success.  She introduced nine bills that received bipartisan support and were signed by the governor.  Here are a few of them:
 
- AB1284: Bringing transparency to the Bay Bridge - Requires the Toll Bridge Program Oversight Committee to comply with the Open Meetings Act.
  
- AB1058: Child abuse prevention training - Requires the Dept. of Education to establish guidelines and best practices for child abuse prevention in schools.
 
- AB1401: Supporting veterans in higher education - Provides California National Guard and some other veterans with greater access to college financial aid after active duty.
 
- AB2486: Fighting scams - Makes it easier for consumers to check a contractor by
requiring the Contractors State License Board to update its website to allow consumers to
search for licensed contractors by zip code, not just by license number or exact name.
 
- AB2295: Ensuring crime victims are allowed full restitution -  Dissolves any ambiguity in California law to ensure convicted criminals are required to provide full restitution to their victims.

Baker also authored important bills to prohibit BART strikes and to remove the cap on
school district reserve funds.
 
The newspapers endorse Catharine Baker.  The East Bay Times said: "In her freshman term, she's proven to be smart, articulate, discerning and refreshingly independent."
 
However, the Democrats see things differently.  Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon called the 16th Assembly District "the top pick-up opportunity for Democrats in the Assembly" and promised Baker's opponent, Cheryl Cook-Kallio, "all the support she needs".
 
Cook-Kallio has received over $500,000 from the California Democratic Party just in October.  Deceptive mail and TV ads have been hammering Catharine Baker. 
 
The SF Chronicle said "The California Democratic Party seems to have concluded that it
can't defeat Assemblywoman Catharine Baker, R-San Ramon, on the merits. So it's gone to desperate means to distort the voting record of a Republican legislator ... ."
 
The Chronicle also said that voters who receive the slick mailers misrepresenting Baker's positions should do the right thing: "Drop them in the recycle bin. They're garbage."
 
Baker supporters still have time to help.  One can donate or volunteer on the Baker for
Assembly campaign website.  One can tell friends in the district about Catharine Baker. 
  
The campaign HQ is at:
2303 Camino Ramon, Suite 260, San Ramon and is open for walking and phoning every day until Election Day.  More info.  Let's work to keep Catharine in the
Assembly!

Lincoln Club Endorses Local Candidates


The Lincoln Club of Northern California has endorsed 36 candidates for local office around the greater Bay Area, the most in recent years.  These prestigious endorsements normally come with financial support as well.

Club Executive Director Megan Range says that, in the Bay Area, other than the priority of reelecting Assemblymember Catharine Baker, "We prioritize non-partisan races.  We understand that that's where we can win and where our resources can have the most impact."

Top club priorities include Steve Brown and Dev Davis, candidates for San Jose City Council in Districts 2 and 6, respectively.  San Jose is the largest city in the Bay Area, and council member is a full-time job.
 
Two other top candidates are Steve Barr and Debora Allen in Contra Costa County.  Barr is running for county supervisor in District 3, seeking a seat where a Republican is retiring.  Allen is running for BART director in District 1, a board where she would have regional responsibilities.
 
The Lincoln Club endorsements also include six mayoral candidates (* indicates incumbent):
Joseph Gunter*, Salinas
Ignacio Velazquez*, Hollister
Roland Velasco, Gilroy
Jerry Thorne*, Pleasanton
David Haubert*, Dublin
Sean Wright, Antioch
 
The club considers candidates from several sources.  They seek Republican "candidates that strengthen fiscal and personal responsibility and free enterprise," and have a reasonable chance to win.  Endorsements must be approved by their region, by a screening committee, and by the board.
 
You can see the full list of candidates, including many Bay Area city council and school board candidates, with additional information.
