Pamela Price Leads With Vision, Courage, and a Proven Justice Reform Record as the First Candidate in the Alameda County District Attorney Race to Step Forward For a Debate at CSUEB-March 18th
Oakland, CA — Civil rights attorney and former Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price has become the first candidate to formally declare she will debate March 18th at California State University, East Bay to share her vision for the future of Alameda County’s justice system—which includes continuing a lifetime of breaking barriers, challenging powerful institutions, and standing up for those without a voice.
The ‘go along to get along’ appointed Alameda County District Attorney Ursula Jones Dickson has yet to agree to debate Price, who according to her campaign was unjustly recalled due to lies, misinformation, and manipulation of the media.
Price’s campaign emphasizes a truth that has defined her life: she is a survivor—of sexual assault, of the foster care system, and of the systemic inequities she has spent her career fighting to dismantle. Her resilience is not theoretical; it is lived. It is the foundation of her leadership.
A Survivor Who Helped Change the Nation: The Fight Against Yale That Helped Shape Title IX
As a young woman, Price survived sexual assault and refused to be silenced. As a trailblazer for others, Price took on Yale University in a landmark civil rights lawsuit that helped pave the way for the modern
Title IX protections that safeguard women and girls on school campuses across the nation today. Her courage forced one of the most powerful institutions in the country to confront its failures—and opened doors for generations of students who deserve safety, dignity, and justice.
This defining experience shaped her lifelong commitment to ensuring that survivors are heard, respected, and protected.
A Historic First: The Only African American to Serve as Alameda County District Attorney
In 2023, Pamela Price made history as the first African American ever elected Alameda County District Attorney. Her election represented a turning point for a county long plagued by racial disparities, opaque decision-making, and a status quo that too often failed victims, families, and communities.
Her administration implemented reforms rooted in transparency, accountability, and fairness—policies aligned with California law, supported by community organizations, legal experts, and justice-reform advocates.
Facts vs. Fiction: Setting the Record Straight
Price’s 2026 “Facts vs. Fiction” documentation highlights the stark contrast between her record and the misinformation circulated by political opponents seeking to thwart her reform. Key distinctions include:
● Price followed the law in resentencing reviews and charging decisions, while critics misrepresented her actions for political gain.
● Price expanded victim services, including culturally competent support for survivors, contrary to claims that she neglected victims.
● Price strengthened accountability, including prosecuting law enforcement misconduct when warranted—an area historically ignored in Alameda County.
● Price increased transparency, publishing data and policies that had never before been made public.
These facts underscore what supporters have long said: Pamela Price stands for justice grounded in truth, not fear-based narratives.
A Clear Contrast: Actions of the Appointed DA Raise Concerns
Community organizations, including the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, have raised serious concerns about actions taken by the currently appointed District Attorney. Their public statement notes that the appointed DA has taken steps that undermine the intent of California’s justice-reform laws, particularly around resentencing and equitable review. These actions, advocates argue, fail to uphold the principle of justice for all.

This contrast highlights the urgency of leadership rooted in integrity, legal fidelity, and community partnership that Price will provide for the residents of Alameda County.
The First DA in Alameda County History to Fight Back After a Recall
In another historic first, Pamela Price is the only District Attorney in Alameda County history to fight to reclaim her office after a recall. Her decision to run again is not about politics—it is about principle. It is about defending the will of the voters who elected her, protecting the real reforms she began, and ensuring that Alameda County does not return to a system that failed too many for too long.
Her supporters say this moment reflects her lifelong practice: when confronted with injustice, Pamela Price does not back down.
Upcoming Debate: A Defining Moment for Alameda County
Price will present her vision at the upcoming Alameda County District Attorney Debate at California State University, East Bay. The event will give voters a clear opportunity to compare candidates, evaluate their records, and hear directly from the only candidate with a proven history of fighting—and winning—on behalf of the people. The debate is hosted by CSUEB Project Rebound & Sociology Department, from 3p.m.-5 p.m. at the South University Union.
