Art Torres - Killing Democracy in California Since 1996




Arthur "Art" Torres is the current Chairman of the California Democratic Party, a position he has held since 1995, and is the first Latino in the California Democratic Party to have been nominated for statewide office when he won the Democratic primary for insurance commissioner in 1994.

Torres was an opponent of California Proposition 187, the state ballot proposal that would have cut off government benefits to illegal aliens. The proposal passed by 59-41%, but was nullified when it was declared unconstitutional in a court challenge.
