In 2012, Yaki called for the Commission to launch an investigation into Stand-your-ground laws in the aftermath of the Trayvon Martin shooting. The Commission will be considering the matter during their 2013 calendar.
Beginning in 2012, Yaki became the on-air political analyst for KRON4-TV in San Francisco. He provides political and legal analysis and commentary on breaking and important national, state, and local issues.
In 2009, the Republican majority on the Commission began attacking the Obama Administration for its decision in the New Black Panther Party voter intimidation case where Yaki was adamantly opposed what he believed was a "partisan" and "kangaroo court" approach to the case by the majority. Yaki, and his colleague, Arlan Melendez, issued a scathing dissent of the report, alleging that it lacked "political and intellectual integrity" from the outset.
Beginning in 2009, Yaki founded his own consulting firm, Michael Yaki Consulting. Working from San Francisco, Yaki provides strategic advice and policy management to businesses and individuals primarily in California and Washington DC.
Yaki was appointed by the Congress to the Commission on Civil Rights in 2005. At the time, the Commission had become increasingly polarized under the George W. Bush administration, as conservatives –including Republican appointees on the Commission itself – argued that it no longer served any useful purpose and conducted partisan investigations meant to embarrass Republicans. After 2004, when Bush appointed two conservative Commissioners who had recently canceled their Republican Party registrations to the two "independent" seats, obtaining a six-member conservative majority bloc, the Commission dramatically scaled back its activities and canceled several ongoing investigations. During the Barack Obama administration, this conservative bloc reversed its position and began using the Commission as a vigorous advocate for conservative interpretations of civil rights issues, such as opposition to the Voting Rights Act and the expansion of federal hate crimes laws. For his first five years on the Commission Yaki was the frequent voice of dissent on the Commission,. His first dissent was on a Commission report attacking affirmative action in contracting, where his dissent was longer than the majority report.
In 1999, Yaki wrote his first op-ed for the New York Times on the confusion over applicable laws governing cable television franchises because of the failure of the federal government to deal with it in a coherent manner. He went on to write 4 more op-eds for the Times through 2000.

He also served as a member of the Executive Committee of the California State Association of Counties.
Yaki was sworn in on February 6, 1996. One of his first actions was organizing a Children and Youth Summit in the City. He was elected to a full four year term in November, 1996.
In 1995, Yaki was asked by Willie Brown, the Speaker of the California State Assembly to help him with his run for mayor. After Brown won, speculation ensued as to whether Yaki would join the new Administration and in what position. In Brown's first news conference, he announced that he was appointing Yaki to fill the unexpired term of Supervisor Terence Hallinan, who had been elected District Attorney.
Yaki was asked to by Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi to work for her as her District Director.

During President Clinton's campaign in 1992, Pelosi was asked by the Democratic National Committee to be a co-chair of the Platform Committee.
