Moms Demand Action is a wholly owned subsidiary of former mayor Michael Bloomberg’s Mayors Against Illegal Guns.
However, they are careful to put forth an entirely different image to the low-information crowd.
Moms Demand Action claim to be just everyday Americans.
The reality, of course, is quite the opposite.
Shannon Watts, their national director is an example. When she splashed on the scene a year ago, she claimed to be a housewife and mom. In reality, she has long been a Democrat operative, paid (and paid well) to promote for lefty causes.
Enter California’s new state director of Moms Demand Action.
Meet Catherine Stefani.
She describes herself to the Sacramento Bee newspaper’s readers as this:
As a mother of two children, nothing is more important than ensuring my son and daughter grow up in a safe community. That’s why, after 26 innocent students and teachers died in the senseless tragedy in Newtown, Conn., I could no longer remain silent. I joined Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America to fight for a future in which guns no longer kill 33 Americans – including eight children and teens – every day.

Eric at The GunMart Blog does a very nice job fleshing out her resume.
Just a simple and quick Google search turned up who Catherine Stefani really is… She is NOT the PTA super mom that the MDA playbook tries to tell us they all are. She is infact a Legislative Aide for Supervisor Mark Ferrell, a former Policy Analyst for Vice Mayor Cindy Chavez at City of San Jose. a former Deputy District Attorney at Contra Costa County District Attorney’s Office, and an attorney and former prosecutor.
Catherine Stefani is a legislative aide to Supervisor Mark E. Farrell in San Francisco where she works on various public policy issues. Catherine is an attorney who began her legal career as a prosecutor in Contra Costa County. She later developed, hosted and produced FOR THE RECORD, a live call-in television show that focused on educating viewers about various legal issues. The East Bay Business Times named Catherine to the “40 under 40 List” recognizing young leaders in the East Bay community.
Catherine received her B.A. in Government from St. Mary’s College of California. She then spent a year in Japan teaching English and continued on to receive her Juris Doctor Degree and LL.M in Government and Public Policy from the University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law. Catherine also served as a legislative analyst for Assemblyman Herb Wesson, a policy analyst for Vice Mayor Cindy Chavez of San Jose and a legislative aide to Supervisor Alioto-Pier. Catherine serves on the Board of Directors of the Homeless Prenatal Program. She is also the California Chapter Leader for Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America. She is the mother of two children, ages 9 and 4, an avid runner and soon to be triathlete.
She was also a 2010 Democrat Candidate for San Francisco county Assembly and former Former Board member of the League of Women Voters. Her list of key endorsements for political office tells you everything you need to know about how radical a liberal she really is.
