“In the time between our last letter on April 12 and now, the LGBTQ Caucus which is comprised of LGBTQ legislators and statewide officeholders has met with stakeholders in the regulatory process as well as governmental affairs staff of the CPUC. Based on these conversations and records we have obtained from the CPUC, we are very confident there are more than enough LGBTQ businesses to justify a 1.5% procurement goal.” - The California Legislative LGBTQ Caucus – September 10, 2021.
California’s Legislative LGBTQ Caucus was formed in 2002 to create a forum for California Legislators to discuss issues that affect LGBTQ Californians and to further the goal of equality and justice for all Californians. In their letter to the Honorable Marybel Batjer - President of the CPUC they stated: “We firmly believe that a 1.5% minimum is a necessary step to inclusion.”
