Breakfast Club with California's State Controller Betty Yee

This morning our office hosted our Breakfast Club with California State Controller Betty Yee.  Events such as breakfast club enable our state legislators and state representatives an opportunity to speak with our constituents directly and address their concerns.  I was honored to share the stage with State Controller Betty Yee. 

She was elected in 2014, following two terms of service on the California Board of Equalization.  As Controller she continues to serve the Board as its fifth voting member. Ms. Yee is only the tenth woman in California history to be elected to statewide office.  As the state's chief fiscal officer, she shares the Franchise Tax Board and serves as a member of the California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS) and the California State Teachers' Retirement System (CalSTRS) Board. As she serves on dozens of boards and commissions with authority ranging from land management to crime victim compensation. Ms. Yee has more than 35 years of experience in public service, specializing in state and local finance and tax policy.
