Wednesday, May 23rd

The Sacramento Press Club is pleased to welcome

Fair Political Practices Commission Chairwoman Ann Ravel

It’s a new day at the Fair Political Practices Commission. Once derided as a toothless watchdog, the FPPC has eliminated its backlog of cases and gained acclaim for its central role in the investigation of Kinde Durkee, a campaign treasurer who embezzled millions from California politicians. And more big cases are said to be on the way.

Please join us on Wednesday, May 23 as the Sacramento Press Club welcomes FPPC Chairwoman Ann Ravel, who will talk about the upcoming election and changes made at the ethics commission. Ravel was appointed FPPC chairwoman in March 2011 by Gov. Jerry Brown. Before that, she served as Santa Clara County Counsel from 1998 to 2009 and then worked as the deputy assistant attorney general for torts and consumer litigation in the Civil Division of the U.S. Department of Justice.

Also at the May luncheon, the Press Club will be presenting $30,000 worth of scholarships to our 2012 winners.
