The Lookout: New Bills Aim to Police the Police; Possibly Give Calif Its First Black Sheriff By Aldon Thomas Stiles, California Black Media Published April 8, 2021 ADVERTISEMENT To serve and protect California’s many communities is a daunting responsibility from entry level jobs to the highest elected positions in public safety.  Therefore, qualifications to hold these positions are important considerations as those criteria could mean the difference between life and death. In the California Legislature, there are a few bills being proposed that aim to specify qualifications for those who take the oath to maintain public safety. One such bill is Senate Bill (SB) 271, also known as the Sheriff Democracy and Diversity Act, authored by Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) and Sen. Nancy Skinner (D-Berkeley). It would allow any registered voter to be eligible to be voted county sheriff in California.
