(That number could go up, if women potentially pick up two more additional seats in races that are currently too close to call.) Those numbers put California above the national average for female representation at statehouses, which is \u003ca href=\"http://www.cawp.rutgers.edu/women-state-legislature-2018\">25 percent\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s been very strange for the past several decades where California’s actually had fewer women in office than many other states across the country,” said Kimberly Nalder, a political science professor at California State University, Sacramento. Even with the gains, 28 percent is a “pretty significant underrepresentation of women,” who make up more than half of the population, she added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Hopefully, this curve starts to increase — become steeper — because otherwise we’re looking at the end of our lifetimes before women reach parity in the state Legislature at this pace,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rachel Michelin, CEO of California Women Lead, a nonpartisan group that helps women seek elected or appointed office in the state, said more California women ran this cycle — but it wasn’t the huge wave who marched in the aftermath of the 2016 election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I just don’t think that materialized as much. I would give it kind of a mixed bag because I don’t want women to think, ‘Yes, this is the year of the woman and now our work is done’ — because it’s not,” she said. “We still have a lot of work to do and we still have a lot of places that we need to continue to have women getting politically engaged.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003c/b>While “it’s great that we’re moving forward in terms of gaining seats, we still haven’t cracked that 30 percent,” she said. “And we’re not even close to parity in terms of the representation in either house.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The statehouse gains come as a record number of women won congressional seats nationwide.

Some of the attacks have spilled over into real life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a campaign event in early October, Valencia says a woman and a man in a golf cart drove by as she was pushing her infant grandniece in a stroller. The woman pointed at her. “And then she said these words as loud as she could: ‘Trump is coming for you, Betty,’ and then they just sped away,” said Valencia, who took her words to mean deportation. “I think she was very much insinuating that I would go back to my country.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigrants like Valencia are among a wave of newcomers running for political office in 2018, hoping to infuse new representation into every level of government, from city council to Congress. While they’re facing challenges common to first-timers, they’re also encountering hurdles due to their immigrant backgrounds -- now more so than ever with a charged national debate around immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>‘Showing Up for Ourselves’\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More and more immigrant candidates are seeking political office, said Sayu Bhojwani, founder and president of \u003ca href=\"https://www.newamericanleaders.org/what-we-do/\">New American Leaders (NAL\u003c/a>), a nonpartisan group that trains naturalized citizens and people of color how to campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least 100 first-generation immigrants are on the ballot in 2018, and many others on it are second- and third-generation immigrants of color, NAL estimated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One thing that we've seen very clearly post-2016 is there's an incredible amount of energy in terms of running for office,” she said. “There's more boldness and more determination on the part of newcomer candidates.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While not the only factor in their decision to run, “the Trump administration's policies and rhetoric have been a big motivator for candidates,” Bhojwani said. “Running for office has definitely become one element of the resistance movement among immigrant leaders.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bhojwani started the group in 2010 shortly after Arizona passed its controversial \"Show me your papers\" law or (SB1070). She had the idea for NAL before then as immigration reform continued to fail in Congress and a growing number of anti-immigrant bills moved through statehouses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I felt it was important we were showing up for ourselves to be the policymakers that we needed because we kept working on behalf of other candidates who were ostensibly allies but were not actually getting the job done,” she said, noting that the group’s aim was to build a pipeline of candidates “that reflect, that look like America.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Twenty-eight of the group’s alums ran in 2016, with 68 percent winning; 54 of their graduates are running in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many immigrants are seeking office in California, like Republican Cristina Osmeña, who is challenging House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi for her San Francisco seat, and Farrah Khan who is vying for a seat on the Irvine City Council.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Barriers to Running\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For NAL’s participants, the three most common barriers to running for office are: markers of immigrant identity (like race, religion, legal status, appearance), a lack of money or financial network, and no political experience or knowledge, Bhojwani said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the group tells would-be candidates they have what it takes. And they stress the value of their backgrounds: “That the immigrant experience is an asset rather than a deficit,” she said. “The immigrant narrative as part of the American story is a critical underpinning of our training.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s the case for Young Kim, a South Korean immigrant who came to California via Guam and Hawaii. A Republican running for the (mostly) Orange County congressional seat now held by retiring GOP Rep. Ed Royce. She already served in the State Assembly and if Kim wins this time, she will become the first Korean-American woman elected to Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kim said she \u003cem>wants\u003c/em> people to know she is an immigrant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a very diverse district, which I think I understand having come from all different areas,” she said. “I know how hard it is to adjust and assimilate into a new country ... I can bring all of those different perspectives.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, she said, her immigration policy would be shaped around what her constituents want.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of people will say because Young Kim is a Republican that I will go automatically with our Republican leadership or (what our) platform says,” she said “I am running as my own person because my district needs a representative who understands what our needs are.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11703639\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11703639\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/youngkim-qut-800x512.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/youngkim-qut-800x512.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/youngkim-qut-160x102.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/youngkim-qut-1020x652.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/youngkim-qut-1200x768.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/youngkim-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Republican candidate for US Congress Young Kim, 55, (R) takes a selfie with a supporter outside her campaign office in Yorba Linda, California, October 6, 2018.

Some of the attacks have spilled over into real life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a campaign event in early October, Valencia says a woman and a man in a golf cart drove by as she was pushing her infant grandniece in a stroller. The woman pointed at her. “And then she said these words as loud as she could: ‘Trump is coming for you, Betty,’ and then they just sped away,” said Valencia, who took her words to mean deportation. “I think she was very much insinuating that I would go back to my country.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigrants like Valencia are among a wave of newcomers running for political office in 2018, hoping to infuse new representation into every level of government, from city council to Congress. While they’re facing challenges common to first-timers, they’re also encountering hurdles due to their immigrant backgrounds -- now more so than ever with a charged national debate around immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>‘Showing Up for Ourselves’\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More and more immigrant candidates are seeking political office, said Sayu Bhojwani, founder and president of \u003ca href=\"https://www.newamericanleaders.org/what-we-do/\">New American Leaders (NAL\u003c/a>), a nonpartisan group that trains naturalized citizens and people of color how to campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least 100 first-generation immigrants are on the ballot in 2018, and many others on it are second- and third-generation immigrants of color, NAL estimated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One thing that we've seen very clearly post-2016 is there's an incredible amount of energy in terms of running for office,” she said. “There's more boldness and more determination on the part of newcomer candidates.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While not the only factor in their decision to run, “the Trump administration's policies and rhetoric have been a big motivator for candidates,” Bhojwani said. “Running for office has definitely become one element of the resistance movement among immigrant leaders.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bhojwani started the group in 2010 shortly after Arizona passed its controversial \"Show me your papers\" law or (SB1070). She had the idea for NAL before then as immigration reform continued to fail in Congress and a growing number of anti-immigrant bills moved through statehouses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I felt it was important we were showing up for ourselves to be the policymakers that we needed because we kept working on behalf of other candidates who were ostensibly allies but were not actually getting the job done,” she said, noting that the group’s aim was to build a pipeline of candidates “that reflect, that look like America.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Twenty-eight of the group’s alums ran in 2016, with 68 percent winning; 54 of their graduates are running in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many immigrants are seeking office in California, like Republican Cristina Osmeña, who is challenging House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi for her San Francisco seat, and Farrah Khan who is vying for a seat on the Irvine City Council.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Barriers to Running\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For NAL’s participants, the three most common barriers to running for office are: markers of immigrant identity (like race, religion, legal status, appearance), a lack of money or financial network, and no political experience or knowledge, Bhojwani said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the group tells would-be candidates they have what it takes. And they stress the value of their backgrounds: “That the immigrant experience is an asset rather than a deficit,” she said. “The immigrant narrative as part of the American story is a critical underpinning of our training.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s the case for Young Kim, a South Korean immigrant who came to California via Guam and Hawaii. A Republican running for the (mostly) Orange County congressional seat now held by retiring GOP Rep. Ed Royce. She already served in the State Assembly and if Kim wins this time, she will become the first Korean-American woman elected to Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kim said she \u003cem>wants\u003c/em> people to know she is an immigrant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a very diverse district, which I think I understand having come from all different areas,” she said. “I know how hard it is to adjust and assimilate into a new country ... I can bring all of those different perspectives.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, she said, her immigration policy would be shaped around what her constituents want.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of people will say because Young Kim is a Republican that I will go automatically with our Republican leadership or (what our) platform says,” she said “I am running as my own person because my district needs a representative who understands what our needs are.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11703639\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11703639\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/youngkim-qut-800x512.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/youngkim-qut-800x512.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/youngkim-qut-160x102.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/youngkim-qut-1020x652.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/youngkim-qut-1200x768.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/youngkim-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Republican candidate for US Congress Young Kim, 55, (R) takes a selfie with a supporter outside her campaign office in Yorba Linda, California, October 6, 2018.
