Biography
ENG:
The California State Assembly is the lower house of the California State Legislature. There are 80 members in the Assembly, representing an approximately equal number of constituents, with each district having a population of at least 420,000. Due to the state's large population and relatively small legislature, the Assembly has the largest population per representative ratio of any state legislature lower house and second largest of any legislative lower house in the United States; only the federal U.S. House of Representatives has a larger ratio. Since a ballot initiative in 1990, members of the Assembly are restricted by term limits, confining them to three two-year terms (six years). The Assembly convenes at the California State Capitol in Sacramento.

David Gregory asked Waters if it would be possible for the president to take on an ambitious role in working on job creation in Congress, given the recent partisan fights over the debt ceiling. Waters put the impetus on Obama to take the first step. ... by Josh Feldman Source: mediaite.com

Watt to be Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency: "It is with high regard and great respect that I endorse the nomination of Representative Mel Watt to head the Federal Housing Finance Agency. We are at a crossroads in our economic recovery, and the FHFA must play a leading role in laying the groundwork for the long-term stability of the housing market. Given that this is one of the most important challenges that we face as a nation, we need a man as thoughtful, well-informed, principled and fair as Representative Watt.

Congresswoman Maxine Waters' Statement on Ending FAA Furloughs Congresswoman Maxine Waters (CA-43), Ranking Member of the House Financial Services Committee, issued the following statement today on the House passage of the Reducing Flight Delays Act of 2013 to end employee furloughs by the Federal Aviation Agency: "I have been extremely concerned about flight delays and the safety of travelers at our nation's airports due to employee furloughs at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The furloughs were a result of sequestration, the automatic across-the-board spending cuts that took effect on March 1st. I introduced a bill today that would prevent the furloughs of air traffic controllers that have caused widespread flight delays this week. My bill, the Safe and Reliable Air Travel Act of 2013 (H.R. 1766) would exempt the operation of our nation's air traffic control system from sequestration. "Meanwhile, the Senate unanimously passed emergency legislation yesterday, the Reducing Flight Delays Act of 2013 that would also end the flight dela |
