On July 1, instead of the California Technology Agency, or CTA, we will have the California Department of Technology. Secretary Carlos Ramos said this week they are still looking for a moniker, perhaps "Cal Tech" or something catchy-like. Have any suggestions? Send them to info@techwire.net – maybe we will run a poll on your ideas.
If you are following the confirmation of Office of Technology Services Director Ron Hughes, a Senate Rules Committee hearing is scheduled for March 13 at 1:30 in Room 113 of the State Capitol, according t the Senate Daily File. Rules Committee is the first hurdle of the confirmation process which concludes with a vote on the Senate Floor. The Senate has one year to confirm gubernatorial appointees. Hughes was appointed by Governor Jerry Brown on March 20, 2012.
