On Monday, the California Legislative Women's Caucus (CLWC) posted a letter addressed to Endeavor CEO Ari Emanuel calling for 'the immediate removal' of Dana White as UFC president.
We write with deep concern about the recent violent video we have seen online from the Ultimate Fighting Championship President Dana White. Our caucus, which is both bicameral and bipartisan, is composed of women across the State of California who are committed to creating better lives for women and girls. We care deeply about intimate partner violence, and we have seen how partner violence affects the lives of children and families.
And yet, we have seen the video of U.F.C. President Dana White, where he strikes his wife at a New Year's Eve celebration with a closed fist. We were appalled. It was alarming to say the least. We agree - and we are urging you to take immediate action. Like you, we are people who live by our values. Every day that Mr. White's actions go unaccounted for, your silence becomes more piercing and troubling. At this point, thousands of young men, women, and adults worldwide have seen the video of Mr. White striking his wife. We have also seen his apology. What we have not seen is any consequences for his actions.
