Jared Huffman Bio
Jared Huffman is the Democratic assemblyman for California's 6th State Assembly district, which includes all of Marin and southern Sonoma counties. He is Chairman of the Assembly Water, Parks & Wildlife Committee, which has jurisdiction over state parks, and also chairs the Assembly Environmental Caucus. Huffman received his B.A. in Political Science from UC Santa Barbara, and attended law school at Boston College. He was a 3-time All-American volleyball player at UCSB, and a member of the World Champion USA Volleyball Team in 1987. Huffman became a consumer attorney after law school, specializing in public interest cases, including an historic case in which he won the battle for all California State University campuses to comply with Title IX for the National Organization of Women. This allowed for many new athletic opportunities for thousands of female athlete scholars in California. Huffman was also a senior attorney for the Natural Resources Defense Council, and a publicly-elected Director of the Marin Municipal Water District for 12 years. Huffman was elected to the California State Assembly in 2006. He has previously been Chairman of the Committee on Environmental Safety and Toxic Materials as well as his current Chair positions. Huffman is currently running for a congressional seat, to replace retiring Congresswoman Lynn Woolsey.
