Alastair Mactaggart

Annette Ramirez inducted into the Consumer Advocate Hall of Fame; Ricardo Echeverria received the Lifetime Legal Achievement Award; Alastair Mactaggart honored as Citizen Activist of the Year. The Rage For Justice Awards were held on May 18, 2019 at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel.

The CCPA was passed unanimously after a deal was struck between privacy advocates led by Alastair MacTaggart and key legislators led by Senator Bob Hertzberg. MacTaggart had collected over 600,000 signatures to qualify a privacy measure for the California ballot, but pulled it one the state legislature and Governor passed and signed the CCPA. 

We are grateful for Alastair Mactaggart, who qualified Prop 24 for the ballot, and all the California voters who supported it. In this week’s Rage for Justice Report podcast I talk with Alastair about what Prop 24 means for our privacy rights.
