Susan Bonilla Biography
Assemblywoman Susan A. Bonilla was first elected to the State Assembly in November 2010, and represents California’s 14th Assembly District, which includes Contra Costa County and Solano County. She is chair of the Assembly Business, Professions, and Consumer Protection Committee, and sits on the Assembly Health Committee and the Assembly Utilities and Commerce Committee. She also chairs the Assembly Select Committee on Increasing the Integration of STEM Education in California K-14 Schools.
In 2014, Assemblywoman Bonilla authored the groundbreaking business innovation and consumer protection bill, AB 2293, which clarifies insurance coverage for Transportation Network Companies such as Uber and Lyft. This bill ensures that drivers, passengers and pedestrians are protected, while supporting the innovative ride-sharing business model. During last year’s legislative session, she also authored two significant public safety measures: AB 1147, the Massage Therapy Reform Act, which returns local land-use authority to cities and counties to eliminate human trafficking and prostitution from the massage industry, and AB 2560, which addresses the recent number of child abuse cases in schools by ensuring all credentialed school employees understand their responsibilities to report all child abuse cases to local law enforcement. In addition, she co-authored AB 1432, which complements AB 2560 by requiring annual training on mandated reporting and identifying child abuse and neglect for all certified school employees.
This past year, Assemblywoman Bonilla made it a priority to address a number of public policy issues, including the state’s current physician shortage and discrimination against members of the LGBT community. AB 1838 allows more graduates of accelerated and fully accredited medical programs to become licensed physicians in California, and AB 2501 prohibits the use of the “panic defense,” where defendants claim that a state of panic provoked their malicious act, in an attempt to lower or escape charges. Furthermore, as a leader for women’s rights, Assemblywoman Bonilla helped keep women in the Science, Technology, Education, and Math (STEM) fields. AB 2350 requires universities to adopt policies to implement Title IX and protect the rights of pregnant graduate students, by ensuring that they receive the appropriate and necessary accommodations to complete their programs.
Adding to her legislative accomplishments, Assemblywoman Bonilla’s devoted efforts to improve our education system produced an additional $26.7 million for the K-12 High Speed Network, to meet internet requirements necessary for the implementation of the Common Core State Standards. This additional funding built upon last year, in which she was successful at securing $1.25 billion for Common Core implementation, professional development for teachers, and technology upgrades for our schools.
Prior to serving in the California State Legislature, Susan was the Mayor of Concord and County Supervisor for Contra Costa County. Before entering her career as an elected official, she was a high school English teacher in the Mt. Diablo Unified School District. Susan earned her B.A. in English from Azusa Pacific University and her teaching credential from California State University Los Angeles. Susan and her husband, John, reside in Concord. They have four daughters and three grandchildren.
