Judge: California’s women on boards law is unconstitutional

Posted: 17 May 2022 03:14 AM PDT

The AP reports:

 A Los Angeles judge has ruled that California's landmark law requiring women on corporate boards is unconstitutional.

Superior Court Judge Maureen Duffy-Lewis said the law that would have required boards have up to three female directors by this year violated the right to equal treatment. The ruling was dated Friday.

The conservative legal group Judicial Watch had challenged the law, claiming it was illegal to use taxpayer funds to enforce a law that violates the equal protection clause of the California Constitution by mandating a gender-based quota.

David Levine, a law professor at the University of California Hastings College of the Law, said he was not surprised by the verdict. Under state and federal law "mandating a quota like this was never going to fly," Levine said.

State Senate leader Toni Atkins, a Democrat from San Diego, said the ruling was disappointing and a reminder "that sometimes our legalities don't match our realities."


"More women on corporate boards means better decisions and businesses that outperform the competition," Atkins said in a statement. "We believe this law remains important, despite the disheartening ruling."

The decision comes just over a month after another Los Angeles judge found that a California law mandating that corporations diversify their boards with members from certain racial, ethnic or LGBT groups was unconstitutional.

Why does corporate America need Comrade Atkins to tell them how to employ labor?
