Successful Town Hall with Asm. Buffy Wicks


This virtual town hall was a collaboration of the Leagues of Women Voters of Berkeley Albany Emeryville, Oakland, Piedmont, and West Contra Costa County. Assemblymember Buffy Wicks represents State Assembly District 15, which encompasses Albany, Berkeley, Emeryville, Piedmont and parts of Oakland in Alameda County and El Cerrito, Hercules, Pinole, Richmond, San Pablo, El Sobrante and Kensington in Contra Costa County.

Asm. Wicks joined the League to discuss the state budget landscape including COVID recovery, and her 2021 legislative package. Her focus is on working families, housing and tenant protections, consumer protections, criminal justice, healthcare transparency, and childcare. She fielded League moderated questions on topics including housing shortages, climate change and wildfires, consumer protection, education funding, single payer health care, criminal justice, and gun violence prevention.
