California Secretary of State Shirley Weber said one of her biggest priorities for a second term include figuring out how to better support the state's small businesses and nonprofits.
Weber said that, even with minimal support, those candidates should not be shut out of the general election, which would rob voters of choices. They are “using the only system that we have given them to survive,” she said.When she became secretary of state last year, one of the problems that Weber inherited was a long-delayed project to update California’s aging online campaign finance database, known as Cal-Access. Within months, sheWeber called that one of her hardest decisions.
“I’m not running for something else and I’m not running away,” she said. “So it is something that I had to deal with.”In the wake of former President Donald Trump’s false claims that the 2020 election was stolen, Republican candidates for secretary of state across the country are. Weber said the problem is minimal and she has few concerns that it is occurring in California, though she is staying vigilant.
“I want to make sure that people know what resources we have,” she said. “We’re already planning for the next term to talk about how we can do more town halls, more meetings — make sure that we have things on our website that really address the issue of small businesses as well as our nonprofits.”Before she became secretary of state, Weber was one of California’s most prominent legislators — and she still holds some sway.
