FIFTH COME NUMBER SIX. THANK
YOU MISTER CHAIR I WILL LOOK
THE CAN MEMBER CLEAR THAT
WHISTLE. IDENTIFY IN. IS AND
THAT- MAKES IT- IT CLARIFIES AS
THE BILL HAD RICH INTO THAT THE
MISSED- BY A SURPRISE MY BE S.
FOR. THANK YOU SAYS SKINNER- SO
HERE YOU THE FLOOR IS YOURS.
THANK YOU- POLITIES JUST
CRACKING SOMETHING THE MOST TO
BE- MEMBERS SOME VERY VERY
PLEASE TO PRESENT SB SIX. YES
SIXTEEN IS THE ENTER. OF A BILL
S. SO. SEVEN SIX WHICH- WAS-
MIND LAST YEAR IN WHICH WAS
APPROVED BY THE ASSEMBLY WITH A-
I DON'T HAVE THE PHONE FOR ME
BUT FOR. FIFTY OR HIGHER ON THE
LAST OF SESSION BUT DUE TO THE
MITTEN DEADLINE THAT WE FACED.
ONCE IT GOT OVER TO THE SENATE
WE RAN OUT OF TIME TO TAKE IT
UP. SO WE BRING IT BACK WITH
THE HOPES THAT WE ARE DON'T HIT
THAT MIDNIGHT. AS WE DID LAST
YEAR. BUT WHAT SB SIXTEEN DOES
IS BUILD UPON. THE BILL I
DIDN'T TWENTY EIGHTEEN WHICH
THE LEGISLATURE PASSED IN THE
GOVERNOR SIGNED INTO LAW. WHICH
WAS SB FOURTEEN TWENTY ONE AND
THAT BILL FOR THE FIRST TIME IN
FORTY YEARS OPENED CALIFORNIA'S
COMPLETE BLOCK. ON ANY PUBLIC
ACCESS TO. POLICE RECORDS. THAT
THAT BLOCK OR THAT- IT ABILITY
TO ACCESS. RECORDS EVEN
INCLUDED A CHIEF OF POLICE
COULD NOT GET RECORDS ON. A AN
OFFICER THAT THEY WERE
CONSIDERING FOR HIGHER. THEY
COULD THERE WAS ONLY LIMITED
THINGS THAT THEY COULD EVEN GET
SO FOR EXAMPLE IF THAT
PARTICULAR OFFICER ANY NO OTHER
AGENCY HAD A HISTORY OF
COMPLAINTS OR MISCONDUCT IN A
CERTAIN SET OF THINGS. THE NEW
HIRING AGENCY WOULD NOT HAVE
ACCESS TO THOSE RECORDS- SO.
THE I INDICATED TWENTY ONE WAS
PASSED AND IT OPENED UP ACCESS
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FORTY
YEARS TO A LIMITED SET OF
RECORDS. THOSE RECORDS BEING
SPECIFICALLY PROVEN SEXUAL
ASSAULT ON THE JOBS IN OTHER
WORDS AND IF AN OFFICER
COMMITTED SEXUAL ASSAULT ON THE
JOB. SECONDLY DISHONESTY
INVOLVING INTERFERING WITH A
WITNESS FOR TAMPERING EVIDENCE.
AND THIRDLY DISCHARGING A
FIREARM OR USE OF FORCE SO
THOSE WERE ARE THE THINGS THAT
WE NOW HAVE ACCESS WHAT THIS
BILL DOES IS ADD A FEW OTHER
CATEGORIES AND THE PRINCIPLE OF
WHICH IS THAT. LAW ENFORCEMENT
TO BE EFFECTIVE MUST HAVE THE
TRUST OF THE COMMUNITY IT
SERVES AND WHEN THE COMMUNITY
FEELS LIKE WE DON'T KNOW ENOUGH
ABOUT OUR OFFICERS AND IF WE
MAKE CERTAIN COMPLAINTS WE HAVE
NO IDEA IF THOSE COMPLAINTS ARE
EVER INVESTIGATED WORK THE
OFFICERS EVER HELD ACCOUNTABLE.
SO THE ADDITION THAT I WILL BE
PRESENTED TO NOW ARE ADDITIONS
THAT MOST PEOPLE FEEL ARE VERY
READ THING THAT ALL OF US
DESERVED KNOW ABOUT THE OFFICER
THAT SIR. SO THE ADDITIONAL
RECORDS THERE ARE SIX DAD'S ARE
GETTING SPEAKING ACCESS TO USE
FORCE SOME OF THE WE WOULD BE
ABLE TO GET A WORK ON SO.
FINDING OF HENRI- USE OF FORCE.
IT ALSO PROVIDES IF NORTH
OFFICER HAS A HIS OF. BIASED OR
DISK. ACTS AND AGAIN SYSTEM. WE
WOULD HAVE TO THOSE. THAT IF
THEY HAD A HISTORY OF CONDUCT A
LOS ARREST SEARCH. AND- IN
ANOTHER COUNTY OF DISHONESTY.
SO ALL OF THESE MUST BE
SUSTAINED FINDINGS- THE LAST
THING THAT THE BILL DOES. IS IT
ENSURES THAT. IF AN OFFICER
QUITS THEIR JOB LET'S SAY
THERE'S A SET OF COMPLAINTS
BROUGHT AGAINST THEM AND THE
AGENCY HAS JUST OPENED AN
INVESTIGATION HAS BEEN
COMPLETED AND THE OFFICER
CHOOSES TO AVOID. HAVING THE
COMPLETE LOOKED INTO TO LEAVE
THE JOB. THAT A NOTHER HIRING
AGENCY BEEN CONSIDERING THE
HIRING OF THAT OFFICER CAN CAN
AND WOULD REQUEST FROM THE
PREVIOUS AGENCY ALL RECORDS
RELATED TO THAT OFFICER. SO WE
DON'T HAVE A SITUATION WHERE
OFFICERS ARE JUST QUITTING IT
JUMPING OFF TO ANOTHER FORCE TO
AVOID HAVING THEIR MISCONDUCT
EVER REVEALED. SO THIS PROTECTS
ALL OF US IT PROTECTS OUR
AGENCIES SO THAT THEY KNOW WHO
THEY'RE HIRING. SO THAT'S WHAT
THE BILL DOES SPOKE SKEWS ME
THERE'S ONE OTHER COMPONENT AND
THAT IS ONCE FOURTEEN TWENTY
ONE PASSED MOST JURISDICTIONS
AND AGENCIES COMPLIED WITH THE
LAW IN RELEASED THE RECORDS AS
THE BILL WRECKED. IT IN FORCE-
REQUIRED. HOWEVER THERE ARE
SOME AGENCIES WHO WANTED TO
HEAR DIRECTOR FEED FOR DOOR OR
CREATE OBSTACLES AND SOME OF
THE OBSTACLES THAT THEY CREATED
WERE TO CHARGE OUT REGIS PRICES
FOR THE REQUEST FOR TO GET
RECORDS. THERE WAS ONE
PARTICULAR JURISDICTION IT
TRIED TO CHARGE A FAMILY SOME
AT THAT THE INITIAL BILL WAS
THIRTY THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR THE
REAP RECORDS THAT THEY
REQUESTED. SO WHAT THIS BILL
DOES IS CLARIFY THEY CAN ONLY
CHARGE FOR THE COPYING JUST
LIKE OUR PUBLIC RECORDS ACT
REQUIRES. AND THAT THEY MUST
RESPOND IN A TIMELY MANNER AND
IF THEY DO NOT RESPOND IN A
TIMELY MANNER THERE'S THE
ABILITY TO TAKE TO CHALLENGE
THAT IN COURT AND FOR THERE TO
BE FEES OR FINES LEVIED. BOB
BASED ON THEIR REFUSAL TO
COMPLY. WITH THE LAW. FOR PETER
RICH BILL SB HOURS YES FOR
TWENTY WAS QUITE CAN EVERY
ENFORCEMENT OF. THIS BILL SB
SIXTY SO LET YEAR'S SEVENTEEN
SIX I WORKED VERY CLOSELY WITH
OUR MAJOR LAW ENFORCEMENT
AGENCIES LIKE ARE YOU ENTITIES
LIKE CORRECT. AND MADE SURE
THAT ALL OF THE RECORDS HERE
WERE SUSTAIN FINDINGS AND
ADDRESSED OTHER CONCERNS THEY
HAD SO I'M VERY PROUD TO SAY
THAT POOR ACT FOR EXAMPLE IS
NEUTRAL ON THIS BILL. THERE ARE
SOME OTHER LAW ENFORCEMENT
AGENCIES THAT STILL DON'T LIKE
THIS BILL BUT IS NOT NEAR AS
CONTENTIOUS AS FOURTEEN TWENTY
ONE WAS. FOUND WITH THAT HI-
WOULD GO TO MY MAIN WITNESSES
IN SUPPORT. THANK YOU SENATOR
SKINNER- I BELIEVE WE HAVE- A
NATASHA MINSKER WITH SMART
JUSTICE AND SAFEST JOHNSON WITH
CALIFORNIA'S FAMILIES UNITED
FOR JUSTICE- ON THE PHONE LINE
SO. IF WE MIGHT START WITH A-
MISS MINSKER. GOOD AFTERNOON SB
SIXTEEN IS A MODEST PROPOSAL
THAT PRIMARILY ADDRESSES THE
PROBLEMS FAMILY MEMBERS AND THE
PUBLIC HAVE ENCOUNTERED
ACCESSING CONDUCT RECORD. FOR
FORTY YEARS RECORD COULD NOT
CONDUCT BY POLICE THE KEPT
SECRET AND HIDDEN FROM THE
PUBLIC. BETTER SKINNER BUILDERS
THE PUBLIC RIGHT TO KNOW. ABOUT
HONDA BY. ANY FAMILY MEMBERS
RECORDERS IN MEMBER OF THE-
REQUESTED WRECKED. AND
IMMEDIATE THEY ENCOUNTERED
CURIOUS WROCLAW. DEPARTMENT
DESTROYED I THINK OUR PERMITTED
TO DO UNDER LAW. BERMAN FUTURE
TURNING PRIVILEGE READ. ABOUT
STATEMENTS FROM WITNESSES. SAM
WERE CHARGED OUT OF DOLLARS FOR
FEES FOR RECORD STORED IN A
DIGITAL. THAT CAN BE DUPLICATED
WITH A FEW KEY. OFTEN- RESIGNED
TO BLOCK THIS MERGER OF RECORD
AND APART THE WAY JUST FOR
MONEY EVEN MORE THAN A YEAR
BECAUSE THERE'S NO ONE WAY TO
ENFORCE THE FOR THE IN HER LAW.
TO UNDERSTANDING OUR JUSTICE
SYSTEM AND BUILDING TRUST
BETWEEN COMMUNITIES AND POLICE.
THIS INCLUDES SUSTAIN
COMPLAINTS OF PREJUDICE AND
BIAS BY POLICE. THE SAME
COMPLAINTS OF ILLEGAL SEARCHES
ARE AT. ON USE OF FORCE BY THE
POLICE THIS IS CRITICAL
INFORMATION FOR THE PUBLIC TO
KNOW HOW THE POLICE DEPARTMENT
OR TAKING MISCONDUCT COMPLAINT
SERIOUSLY AND OFTEN OFFICERS
HAVE A PATTERN OF MISCONDUCT.
SB SIXTEEN IS A MODEST PROPOSAL
THAT WILL ENSURE THE PUBLIC HAS
MEANINGFUL ACCESS TO THE
INFORMATION IS NEEDED AND IT
WILL HELP BUILD TRUST BETWEEN
POLICE AND COMMUNITY. ON BEHALF
OF BOTH SMARTER FOR CALIFORNIA
AND THE PROSECUTORS LINE
CALIFORNIA WE ARE YOUR EYES.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU MISS
MINSKER OUR NEXT- SEE IF JOHN.
YES CAN YOU HEAR ME YES WE CAN.
OKAY I AM SICK THIS LOCAL BOBBY
JOHNSON UNCLE ABBAS GRANT. FOR
THE PAST TWELVE YEARS I'VE BEEN
ADVOCATING FOR TRANSPARENCY AND
ACCOUNTAILITY HAVE BEEN
IMPACTED FAMILY MEMBER. OKAY.
THANK GLADNESS JOLLY. OKAY
POLICE OFFICERS ARE VESTED THE
WITH EXTRA POWER. IN ALL TO
MONITOR THE USE OF THAT POWER
THE PUBLIC NEEDS TO KNOW WHEN
THEY ARE OVER THE LINE.
CALIFORNIA IS ONE OF THE MOST
SECRETIVE ST STE CONCERNING
TRANSPARENCY UPON THESE RECORDS
IN THE NATION. THIS IS MERRY
RECORDS OF POLICE OFFICERS THAT
HAVE USED DEADLY FORCE. IT'S
FAIR INJURY SEXUAL SAW SEXUALLY
ASSAULTED SOMEONE FOR LIFE ON
THE JOB HAVE BEEN KEPT SECRET
FOR FORTY YEARS. UNTIL TWENTY
NINETEEN WHEN SB FOURTEEN
TWENTY ONE OR TWELVE BACK. A
PENSION OF SB FOURTEEN TWENTY
ONE CRACKED THE DOOR OPEN.
TRANSPARENCY HOWEVER NOT
WITHOUT BLATANT PUSH BACK FROM
POLICING THEY JUST TO DROP THE
STATE. THANKS TO THE CALIFORNIA
COURTS THE RULING IN OUR FAVOR.
NOW IN THIS TIME OF RECKONING
WHICH IS A CRITICAL TIME FOR
CALIFORNIA POLICING AGENCIES TO
BUILD TRUST WITH THE COMMUNITY
THEY SERVE. WE CAN CLOSE
LOOPHOLES TO REAL TRANSPARENCY
WITH SB SIXTEEN. SB SIXTEEN
WILL GRANT ACCESS TO RECORDS
ABOUT POLICE OFFICERS WHO
ENGAGE IN BIASED OR
DISCRIMINATORY BEHAVIOR OR USE
THAT PHONE. FOR A REASONABLE
FOR. IT WOULD ALSO MAKE IT MORE
DIFFICULT FOR AGENCIES AND
INDIVIDUAL OFFICERS TO MANEUVER
AROUND THE DISCLOSURE REQUIRED
BY IT THE FOURTEENTH TWENTY
ONE. THE FOURTEENTH TWENTY ONE
FOCUSED ON COMPLETED
INVESTIGATION. SB SIXTEEN WILL
MAKE RECORDS PUBLIC IF THE
INTERNAL CARE BEST ADDITION
POTENTIAL MISCONDUCT HAD BEEN
COMPLETED BY THE TIME THE
OFFICER. PART THEIR POSITION
WHICH RIGHT NOW MANY LEAVES ONE
EIGHTY THREE TO GO TO ANOTHER
THEIR BY IMPORTING THIS
DISCLOSURE. SB SIX DIDN'T CLOSE

ALLIANCE IN Q. THANK YOU MR
MODERATOR LET'S BRING IT BACK
TO THE CHAMBER QUESTIONS
COMMENTS I SEE NO MICROPHONES
REYES- SUTTER SKINNER YOU CARE
TO CLOSE. THANK YOU- CHAIR I'M
NOT SURE THAT SOME OF THE
INDIVIDUAL COLORS REALLY- KNEW
WHETHER THEY WERE SPEAKING TO
THIS PARTICULAR BILL BUT I WE
CAN LEAVE IT AT THAT- I
APPRECIATE THE POLICE CHIEFS
CALLING IN AND YES WE ARE
CONTINUING OUR CONVERSATIONS
THERE ARE A FEW- SECTIONS OF
THE BILL SUCH AS THE
ENFORCEMENT MECHANISMS AND THE
LENGTH OF YEARS FOR RETENTION
THAT- IN THERE MAYBE A FEW
OTHERS BUT- THAT- THEY WOULD
LIKE TO SEE ADDRESSED. AND I.
COMMIT TO CONTINUE TO WORK WITH
THEM SO THAT I HOPE WE CAN GET
THEM IN A BETTER PLACE BECAUSE-
THEY WERE SUPPORTIVE OF
FOURTEEN TWENTY ONE AND I WOULD
LIKE TO GET THEM THERE FOR
THIS. SO WELL I CAN'T GUARANTEE
IT I CERTAINLY WILL WORK ON IT-
I WANTED TO HAVE- JUST IN MY
CLOTHES REFERENCE THAT EVEN
WITH THE EXPANSION THAT THIS
BILL DOES THE NEW CATEGORIES OF
RECORDS THAT WE WOULD BE
ENTITLED TO IT STILL LEAVES
CALIFORNIA AND OUT LIAR
COMPARED TO MANY OTHER STATES
FOR EXAMPLE NEW YORK ALL
RECORDS RELATED TO POLICE
OFFICER ACTION ALL ARE NOW
ACCESSIBLE TO THE PUBLIC
LEGALLY. GEORGIA OHIO FLORIDA
KENTUCKY WASHINGTON HAVE VERY
FEW RESTRICTIONS ON WHAT
RECORDS THE PUBLIC CAN ACCESS
CAL AS I'VE INDICATED
CALIFORNIA IS STILL AN OUTLIER
ADDITIONALLY THE EXPANSION ON
THE CATEGORIES OF USE OF FORCE
THAT THIS BILL ALLOWS ARE VERY
IMPORTANT BECAUSE- UNDER. UNDER
CURRENT LAW. THE ONLY KINDS OF
USE OF FORCE THAT WE COULD GET
X. ACCESS TO ARE THOSE THAT
WOULD BE DEFINED AS DEADLY NOW
IF WE TAKE CARE OF THEIR
CHILDREN FOR EXAMPLE WHO IS
UNDER TRIAL NOW. D. WHAT'S COME
OUT IN THE PRESS IS THAT THEIR
JOB AND HAD A HISTORY. OF
VARIOUS USE OF FORCE. PAST
ALLEGATIONS NONE OF WHICH
RESULTED THAT I'M AWARE OF ANY
DEATHS. THE NONE THAT WERE
CHARACTERIZED AS DEADLY SO IN
OTHER WORDS WE WOULD NOT WE NOR
THE POLICE AGENCY IN IN- HIRING
DIRECTOR OF AN FOR EXAMPLE WE
WOULD NOT KNOW. HAVE ANY ACCESS
TO HIS PAST RECORD OF THE TYPES
OF USE OF FORCE THAT IS NOW
BEEN DEMONSTRATED THAT HE
WOULD. VERY COMMONLY USED. WHAT
SB SIXTEEN DOES IS GIVE US THE
ABILITY TO SEE WHEN AN OFFICER
HAS SUSTAINED FINDINGS OF
EXCESSIVE USE OF FORCE- AND
WITH THAT. I HOPE THAT YOU
WOULD GIVE ME- I THOUGHT. I WAS
GONNA- SIR MOTION SIR THE
RUSSELL MOST OF. SB SIXTEEN
BANSHEE COUNSEL IF YOU WOULD
CALL THE ROLL. OR IS THAT THE
SIXTEEN BY SENATOR SKINNER
PLAYED MOTION BY CENTER THAT I

STERN. WHY CASKEY HI WHY CASKEY
I WIENER. YOU HAS SIX RIGHT NOW
ALL RIGHT WE'LL PUT THAT ON
CALL VEGAS IS GONNA THANK YOU
BEFORE WE MOVE ON TO SENATOR
PAN LET ME MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT
HERE. BECAUSE THE UNUSUAL
CIRCUMSTANCES IN WHICH WE'RE
OPERATING HERE IN THE CAPITAL-
IN IN CONSULTATION WITH SENATOR
JONES WITH RESPECT TO S. B.
THREE NINE SEVEN WE'RE GOING TO
DO SOMETHING THAT IS- OUTSIDE
THE USUAL PROTOCOL. SB THREE
NINE SEVEN IS GOING TO BE TAKEN
OUT OF ORDER AFTER THREE
O'CLOCK SO WHATEVER BILLS BEING
PRESENTED THREE O'CLOCK WE'RE
GONNA CONCLUDE THAT BILL AND
NEVER GONNA TAKE UP SB THREE
NINETY SEVEN. AFTER THAT BILL
CONCLUDES- THAT'S TO THE
BENEFIT OF THOSE WHO ARE ON THE
PHONE MAYBE SOME OF THOSE WHO
ARE WAITING HERE IN THE CAPITAL
JUST TO GIVE YOU SOME-
DEFINITION AS TO WHAT WE THINK
THE AFTERNOON HOLDS IN TERMS
OF. TIME AND PROCESS. ALL RIGHT-
CENTER PAN THANK YOU FOR
WAITING. SB SEVENTEEN THANK YOU
CHAIR ON BURGER SENATORS- I AM
PLEASED TO PRESENT SB SEVENTEEN
WHICH WOULD ESTABLISH AN OFFICE
OF RACIAL EQUITY AND RACIAL
EQUITY ADVISED ACCOUNTABILITY
COUNCIL IN ORDER TO ADDRESS
SYSTEMIC AND INSTITUTIONAL
RACISM HAS RESULTED IN POOR
HEALTH OUTCOMES AND DISPARITIES%
IN THE STATE. I DO WANT TO
THANK YOUR STAFF HERE DISHER
COMMITTEE YOU I THINK DID AN
EXCELLENT- SUMMARY AND WRITE UP
OF THE ISSUES THAT THIS BILL
IS- TRYING TO ADDRESS THE LONG
HISTORY OF- RACISM AND
DISPARITIES THAT WE'VE SEEN AND
NOT ONLY IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA BUT ACROSS OUR
COUNTRY AND THIS BILL IS LONG
OVERDUE AND AS A DOWN PAYMENT
TOWARDS STATE PLAYING A MORE
ACTIVE ROLE IN DISMANTLING OVER
THREE HUNDRED YEARS OF RACIAL
INEQUALITIES. IN ENDING
SYSTEMIC RACISM CENTER RESEARCH
IDENTIFIED RACISM IS A PUBLIC
HEALTH CRISIS LEADING TO
SIGNIFICANT HEALTH DISPARITIES
INCLUDING INFANT MATERNAL
MORTALITY CRISIS HE'S
PREVALENCE LIFE EXPECTANCY AND
NOW COBIT MORTALITY. AND WELL
OUR STATE HAS MADE EFFORTS
TECHNOLOGY CONFRONT RACIAL
DISPARITIES IN RECENT YEARS
EQUITY IS OFTEN BEEN TREATED AS
AN AFTERTHOUGHT OR IS A SILENT
STRATEGY IT IS NOT ENOUGH JUST
TO DECLARE RACISM AS A PUBLIC
HEALTH CRISIS THE STATE NEEDS
AN INDEPENDENT BODY TO HOLD US
ACCOUNTABLE BY EXAMINIG
CALIFORNIA'S POLICIES AND
BUDGET WITH THE GOAL OF
ACHIEVING RACIAL EQUITY AND
ENDING SYSTEMIC RACISM. THIS

EXPECT WE ASK YOUR AYE VOTE ON
THIS B. SEVENTEEN AND IN
SUPPORT I DO HAVE TWO WITNESSES
WHO I BELIEVE ARE IN THE
GALLERY. DANIELLE. LAFAYETTE
COMMITTEE MEMBER OF THE- AND
JAKE AT PAUL ADVISER WITH
COMING BURKE AND BURLING. HE ON
BEHALF OF THE GREEN LINING
INSTITUTE THANK YOU THANK YOU
SIR PAN IF OF MR LEVINE IS HERE
IF I WOULD ASK. THAT HE MOVED
TO THE MICROPHONE. IN NO NO
WITH DANIELLE LEFT YET AS WELL
I SEE MR LEVINE AND IF MISS OF
LAFAYETTE IS HERE IF SHE WOULD
MOVE TOWARD THE MICROPHONE AS
WELL. BUT INSTEAD OF PAYING THE
EXCEPT THE AMENDMENTS AS
PROPOSED YES THANK THANK YOU.
HI THIS LEVINE THE FLOOR IS
YOURS TWO MINUTES CHAIR AND
MEMBERS OF THE SENATE JUDICIARY
COMMITTEE. I AM HONORED TO
SPEAK TODAY IN SUPPORT OF SB
SEVENTEEN AS AN ATTORNEY
REPRESENTING THE GREEN LINING
INSTITUTE ONE OF THE BILL'S
LEAD SPONSORS. CALIFORNIA IS
KNOWN WORLDWIDE AS A LAND OF
OPPORTUNITY FROM HAVING THROWN
OPEN ITS DOORS TO FREE SPIRITS
AND ENTREPRENEURS TO BEING A
WELCOMING HOME TO THOSE WHO ARE
DIFFERENT. BUT THE STATE ALSO
HAS A DARKER AND EQUALLY LONG
HISTORY OF PERPETUATING DEEP
RACIAL AND ETHNIC INEQUITIES
THAT PERSIST TODAY. TAKEOVER
NINETEEN FOR BUT ONE RECENT
EXAMPLE THE VIRUS HAS LAID BARE
INEXCUSABLE AND I'M JUST
DISPARITIES AND INEQUITIES IN
ACCESS TO BASIC RIGHTS SUCH AS
CLEAN AIR AND SAFE HOUSING.
ATTORNEYS OF COLOR
DISPROPORTIONATELY EXPOSED TO
AIR POLLUTION AND
DISPROPORTIONATELY BEARING THE
BURDEN OF UNAFFORDABLE HOUSING
HAVE BEEN MORE VULNERABLE TO
RESPIRATORY DISEASE PREYED ON
FAMILIES IN THEIR HOMES AND
THEIR CENTRAL JOBS. BUT EVEN AS
WE ACKNOWLEDGE THOSE INJUSTICES
WE'LL OUT OF VACCINE ROLLOUT TO
OSSIFIED THEM FURTHER FOR
EXAMPLE QUALITY NO CALIFORNIANS
HAVE SUFFERED 47% OF COVERT
NINETEEN DEATHS. THEY HAVE ONLY
RECEIVED 23% OF THE
VACCINATIONS THESE BURDENS
HARDLY A COMPREHENSIVE
ACCOUNTING HAVE ALSO COMPOUNDED
THE WEALTH GAP THAT EXISTS
BETWEEN WHITE CALIFORNIANS AND
CALIFORNIANS OF COLOR. THESE
RACIAL INEQUITIES ARE NOT
SPONTANEOUS THEY'RE THE
PRODUCTS OF DECADES OF
GOVERNMENT POLICIES AND
PRACTICES THAT HAVE BOTH FAILED
TO ADDRESS THEM AND HAVE
AFFIRMATIVELY ADVANCED AND- NOW
GOVERNMENT HAS A CRUCIAL
RESPONSIBILITY TO LEAD THE
REPAIR. THAT IS THE WORK THAT
SB SEVENTEEN BEGINS IT PROVIDES
A THOUGHTFUL STRUCTURE FOR
GOVERNMENT TO IDENTIFY SOLVE
FOR AND ULTIMATELY DISMANTLE
RACIAL INEQUITY. SB SEVENTEEN
ESTABLISHES THE OFFICE OF
RACIAL EQUITY IT WOULD CREATE
AN INNOVATIVE COMMUNITY DRIVEN
FRAMEWORK AND A COORDINATED
APPROACH AMONG STATE AGENCIES
TO PROMOTE EQUITABLE OUTCOMES
AND TO USE DATA TO EVALUATE ITS
OWN PROGRESS. AS WE CONFRONT
THE FULL SCOPE OF RACIAL
DISPARITIES AND INEQUITIES BY
POCK CALIFORNIANS EXPERIENCE ON
A DAILY BASIS THIS BILL IS A
COMMITMENT TO GUARD AGAINST
THEM AND TO REVERSE THEM. I
WOULD BE PLEASED TO ADDRESS ANY
QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE AND I
APPRECIATE YOUR CONSIDERATION.

EXTRACT CONCESSIONS FROM
DEVELOPERS AND PROJECT
PROPONENTS THAT ARE NOT RELATED

CAN DOES OPPOSE LANGUAGE THAT
WE SEE INCREASINGLY SHOW UP IN
LEGISLATION LIKE SB FORTY FOUR.
UNDER EXISTING LAW THERE ARE
SUBSTANTIAL PENALTIES
ASSOCIATED WITH A CONTRACTOR
WHO FAILS TO USE THOSE SKILLED
AND TRAINED WORKFORCE. HOWEVER
UNDER SB FORTY FOUR WITH A
PROJECT LABOR AGREEMENT. THESE
PROJECTS ARE EXEMPT FROM THESE
PENALTIES WE THINK THAT THERE
SHOULD BE A LEVEL PLAYING
GROUND FOR ENFORCEMENT OF
SKILLED AND TRAINED WORKFORCE.
AND THE PENALTY SHOULD APPLY
IRRESPECTIVE OF THE EXISTENCE
OF A PROJECT LABOR AGREEMENT.
LIKEWISE AND POTENTIALLY MORE
CONCERNING FOR MEMBERS OF THE
JUDICIARY COMMITTEE. UNDER
PROJECT LABOR AGREEMENT ON AN
SB FORTY FOUR PROJECT. THE
LABOR COMMISSIONER IS
PROHIBITED FROM ENFORCING WAGE
AND HOUR RULES. THAT ARE
FUNDAMENTAL TO THE PROTECTION
OF WORKERS ON CONSTRUCTION JOBS
IN FACT. THE KEY ADMINISTRATIVE
SUBMITTAL THAT IS USED BY
PUBLIC AGENCIES AND THE LABOR
COMMISSIONER AND OTHERS TO
VERIFY THAT THE CORRECT WAGES
AND BENEFITS HAVE BEEN PAID
WHICH ARE SUBMITTED UNDER
PENALTY OF PERJURY. CONTRACTORS
UNDER APPEAL A ADDRESS BEFORE
THE FIVE OR SB FORTY FOUR
EXCUSE ME. DON'T HAVE TO KEEP A
CERTIFIED PAYROLL RECORDS IN

SENATOR HERTZBERG THANK YOU MR
CHAIRMANI'D LIKE TO-
GRACIOUSLY ASK THE- OFFICE
AUTHOR OF THIS MEASURE AT THE
APPROPRIATE TIME IF YOU WOULD
INCLUDE ME IN WHETHER SAID
PRINCIPAL KOHLER JOINTER
WHATEVER I CAN DO TO BE HELPFUL
I WOULD APPRECIATE THAT IF YOU
WOULD STILL APPLY TO ME AT THE
APPROPRIATE TIME THANK YOU I'D
BE HONORED TO HAVE YOUR SUPPORT
AND- PARTICIPANTS FELT. CENTER
WHAT KASKY. YES SIDE OF A
COUPLE OPPOSITION WHO HAS
RAISED A COUPLE OF POINTS-
ABOUT THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN
THIS BILL SB FORTY FOUR AND- SB
SEVEN FIFTY SEVEN LAST YEAR IN
PARTICULAR ABOUT THIS- LANGUAGE
THAT GIVES A FREE PASS UNDER-
THE PROJECT LABOR AGREEMENTS
FROM THE PENALTIES THERE ARE
PROPOSED IN PUBLIC. CONTRACTING
I'M JUST. BUT THE LEAD AUTHOR
TO RESPOND HIS PLEASE THAT
OBJECTION TO THE BILL YEAH I'M
AN AUTHOR IF YOU'D LIKE TO-
ANSWER DIRECTLY OR INCLUDING
YOUR CLOTHES. WHATEVER THE
THIRD TEARS DISCRETION. PLEASE
GO AHEAD OKAY- HI IT'S A GOOD
QUESTION I THINK THAT I THINK
THE SENATOR KNOWS- AND WHAT'S
BEEN HAPPENING IN THOSE
DISCUSSIONS ON BILL AFTER BILL
AFTER BILL- I WILL SAY THAT. IN
THE CASE OF MAJOR TRANSIT
PROJECTS. THEY ARE AT AT THE
END THEY'RE ALWAYS DONE WITH
THE PROJECT LABOR AGREEMENTS
SO- YOU KNOW I DON'T THINK THAT
THE LANGUAGE IN THIS BILL HAS
SUBSTANTIALLY CHANGES THE ON
THE GROUND FAX. ASSOCIATE WITH
THESE PROJECTS AND RESERVE THE
LAST YEAR'S BILL. MISTER CHAIR-
THE JUDICIAL COUNCIL HAS IN THE
STAFF REPORT. QUITE ELOQUENTLY
TALKS ABOUT THE- FUZZINESS
THAT'S CREATED WITH THE
LANGUAGE OF THIS BILL WITH
REGARD TO THE- THE SEQUEL
REVIEW PROCESS WHETHER WE'RE
USING CALENDAR DAYS OR BUSINESS
DAYS JUST AND WE HAVE TWO LINES
OF APPELLATE COURTS HAVING TWO
DIFFERENT DECISIONS ONE OF THE-
THE CLEARING CALLS FOR THE
LEGISLATURE TO DO IS. SET HIM
AND PICK ONE OR THE OTHER- SO I
WOULD I GUESS IT'S MORE OF A
ADVICE IS THAT I WOULD ASK THE
AUTHOR CHOOSE ONE TO TWO SO
THAT IT SAYS THAT ALL EVERYBODY
IN THE GAME KNOWS WHAT IT IS
AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT IF YOU
LIKE TO RESPOND AS CLOSE BUT-
THAT'S- A CONTINUING PROBLEM
THAT WE HAVE. THANK YOU. CENTER
CABALLERO. YOU MISTER CHAIR- I
APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO
SAY A FEW WORDS I MEAN TO SAY
THAT I'M GOING TO SUPPORT THE
BILL AND I'D ALSO LIKE TO BE.
ADDED AS A AS A CO AUTHOR BUT-
I HAVE BEEN HAVING SAID THAT-
I'VE BEEN TRYING TO AS THE
AUTHOR KNOWS TRYING TO DO-
SOME- SEQUEL REFORM AROUND THE
OPPORTUNITY TO BUILD AFFORDABLE
HOUSING AND IN PARTICULAR IN-
VERY POOR NEIGHBORHOODS AND I
HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DO IT MOSTLY
BECAUSE- THE L. A. DELEGATION
AND IN THE ASSEMBLY. DOESN'T
LIKE SYKORA STREAMLINING OR OR
OR OR- THE EXPEDITED JUDICIAL
REVIEW- GIVEN THAT THIS IS FOR
L. A. AND MY GUESS IS THEY'LL
TAKE A VERY DIFFERENT VIEW OF
IT IN AND OUT THERE WILL BE A
PROBLEM BUT I JUST WANT TO SAY
THAT THAT- I THINK THAT. THIS
IS A REALLY GOOD EXAMPLE OF THE
KIND OF THE SEQUOIA-
MODIFICATION THAT WE NEED TO
CONSIDER- I ON A BROADER BASIS
WHAT CAN BE BETTER FOR THE
ENVIRONMENT THAN FOR US TO GET
PEOPLE OUT OF THEIR VEHICLES
ND TAKING PUBLIC
TRANSPORTATION. AND TO DO IT IN
OUR URBAN CENTERS IS EXACTLY
WHERE IT SHOULD BE DONE. AND SO
IT JUST SEEMS TO ME THAT WE HAD
A WE HAD A LOOK AT THIS- AND
INSTEAD OF AN EXPEDITED
JUDICIAL REVIEW WE SHOULD LOOK
AT IT AS AN ARM AND AN
EXPEDITED JUDICIAL- EXPEDITED
SECRET PROCESS AT THE LOCAL
LEVEL- AND- I. HAVE BEEN HAVING
SOME CONVERSATIONS WITH ONE OF
THE- ONE OF THE ORGANIZATIONS
THAT HAS. CREATED MOST OF THE
SEQUEL LITIGATION IN IN MY
REGION AND THEY SEE IT THIS WAY
TOO THEY THEY HAVE FINALLY-
SEEN THE LIGHT AND THEY'RE
INTERESTED IN LOOKING AT WAYS
THAT WE CAN WE CAN NOT CHANGE
HOW WE DO SECRET BECAUSE
INITIALLY IN THIS IS. I WASN'T
AROUND WHEN SEAT BUT WAS WAS
PROPOSED AND I'VE ALWAYS BEEN
SUPPORTIVE OF IT- BUT IT'S BEEN
MISUSED- IT WAS. BUT NATURAL
ENVIRONMENT IT WAS WHEN YOU ARE
GOING TO BE DOING CONSTRUCTION.
JEX IN ON LAND THAT HAD NOT
BEEN. DISTURBED FOR A
CONSTRUCTION PROJECT IN SO IN
ANY CASE I JUST WANTED TO- TO
MAKE MY WITH MY TWO CENTS WORTH
IT'S A FRUSTRATION OF MINE WE
ABSOLUTELY NEED AFFORDABLE
HOUSING AND I'M GONNA CONTINUE
TO WORK ON. ON WAYS TO BE ABLE
TO GET IT DONE BUT THIS THIS IT
SEEMS TO ME LIKE A RIPE AREA
FOR- SOME DISCUSSION IN ANY WAY
THAT I CAN BE HELPFUL I WANT TO
BE THERE SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THANK YOU CENTER CABALLERO-
SEVERAL BOARD JUST SAY NO YOUR
MICROPHONES UP CENTER BOARD
JUST THANK YOU FOR CHAIRING THE
COMMITTEE IN MY ABSENCE YEAR
COMPENSATION WILL BE.
APPROPRIATELY INCREASED. WITH
THAT CHAIR PAY FOR VOICE ABOUT
TEARS DON'T GET PAID ANYTHING
EXTRA ANYWAY CENTRAL. I MUST
SAY- TERM IT'S GOOD TO HAVE YOU
BACK WE HAD SOME. UNUSUAL
SERIES OF A DISTURBANCE IS BUT
LIKE ALWAYS WE GET THROUGH
THEM- I KIND OF WONDERFUL ON A
COMMENT THAT WAS. I DON'T KNOW
IF IT WAS MR PIMENTEL OR MISTER
TURNER. ONE OF THIS AND TO
WONDER THE TO SUPPORT WITNESSES-
ONE OF THE INDIVIDUALS MADE A
COMMENT THAT SEACOR IS MISUSED
IT IT FACILITATES LAWSUITS IN
CAN CREATE SOME UNNECESSARY
DELAYS. IN NOT TO OVERSTATE THE
OBVIOUS BUT I THINK THOSE ARE
THE TRUISMS THAT PEOPLE
EXPERIENCE AT THE LOCAL LEVEL
WHERE THEY'RE DEALING WITH A
TRANSPORTATION PROJECT OR THEIR
CITY OR COUNTY EMPLOYEES
DEALING WITH LAND USE. SO I'VE
ALWAYS BEEN SUPPORTIVE OF YOUR
DESIRE TO FIND WAYS TO MAKE
SEEK WHAT WORK MORE EFFICIENTLY
AND MORE EFFECTIVELY MORE
TRANSPARENTLY. I THINK AT SOME
POINT IN TIME WE'RE GOING TO
NEED TO ALSO AGAIN HAVE THE
COURAGE TO DEAL DIRECTLY WITH-
THE UNDERLYING LEGISLATION AND
NOT NECESSARILY JUST ALWAYS
WORKING AROUND IT. BUT WITH
THAT I'M GOING TO BE HAPPY TO
SUPPORT YOUR LEGISLATION
BECAUSE I THINK. IT IS. IT IS
IN. I THINK WE'VE A POLTERGEIST%
IN THIS BUILDING. THERE'S A
LOOK AT IT WITH A BUT I'M HAPPY
TO SUPPORT ON THIS- THIS BILL

FORWARD TO OTHER OPPORTUNITIES

ROAD YEARS THANK YOU THANK YOU
MR CHAIRMAN MEMBERS SENATE BILL
THREE NINETY SEVEN ESTABLISHES.
THE RELIGION IS ESSENTIAL ACT.
IN SUPREME JUST. ON TEN VERSUS
NEWSOME LIBERAL JUSTICES
STARTED THEIR DESCENT BY
STATING. QUOTE THE FIRST
AMENDMENT REQUIRES THAT A STATE
TREAT RELIGIOUS CONDUCT AS WELL
AS THE STATE TREATS COMPATIBLE
SECULAR CONDUCT IN QUOTE THAT
IS EXACTLY WHAT THIS BILL DOES
REQUIRE THE STATE TO TREAT
RELIGION AS THE SAME AS ANY
SECULAR ESSENTIAL SERVICE. THIS
BILL UPHOLDS THE RIGHT TO
WORSHIP WITH FELLOW BELIEVERS
ANY CHOSEN HOUSE OF WORSHIP AS
AN ESSENTIAL PART OF LIFE.
WHERE DO YOU GO TO CHURCH
SYNAGOGUE TEMPLE SHRINE MOSQUE
OR ANY OTHER RELIGIOUS SERVICE
YOU GO TO SHARE YOUR BELIEFS
VALUES AND LOVE OF LIFE WITH
YOUR FELLOW PRACTITIONERS AND
YOUR FAITH LEADERS. PRACTICING
A RELIGION IS SOMETHING THAT
CROSSES ALL PARTY LINES RACIAL
IDENTITIES DEMOGRAPHICS
CULTURES AND LIFESTYLES. YOU'LL
FIND HOUSES OF WORSHIP IN THE
MOST POVERTY STRICKEN
NEIGHBORHOODS OF CALIFORNIA AND
YOU'LL FIND THEM IN THE
WEALTHIEST ENCLAVES OF OUR
STATE. YOU'LL FIND THEM IN
DOWNTOWN URBAN CENTERS AND YOU
WILL FIND THEM IN MIDDLE OF
FARM COUNTRY IN THE SUBURBS AND
IN THE INNER CITIES YOU WILL
FIND THEM. EVERYWHERE TAKING
AWAY THE RIGHT TO ATTEND YOUR
CHOSEN HOUSE OF WORSHIP TO
PRACTICE WHATEVER RELIGION YOU
BELIEVE IN. AND TO SHARE THAT
EXPERIENCE WITH YOUR FAMILY
FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS
NEGATIVELY IMPACTS PEOPLE OF
EVERY WALK OF LIFE. IN OUR
STATE. TODAY WE WILL SHARE
TESTIMONY FROM TWO OUTSTANDING
SCHOLARS FOCUSING ON THE BASIC
PREMISE. THAT RELIGION IS
ESSENTIAL. NOT JUST FOR OUR
SPIRITUAL WELL BEING BUT ALSO
FOR OUR PHYSICAL AND MENTAL
HEALTH. YOU WILL ALSO HEAR THAT
OUR GOVERNMENT THROUGH ITS
ACTIONS HAS ENTRUSTED OUR LIVES
IN SAFETY TO LARGE RETAIL
CORPORATIONS. YET THAT SAME
GOVERNMENT HAS REFUSED TO TRUST
FAITH LEADERS TO PROTECT US.
MEMBERS IF WE TRUST THE CEOS
AND MANAGERS OF BIG BOX STORES
TO ENSURE WE SOCIALLY DISTANCE
IN THEIR STORES. AND WHY WOULD
WE NOT TRUST THE RABBIS IMAMS
PRIESTS AND PASTORS. SURE WE
SOCIALLY DISTANCE IN OUR HOUSES
OF WORSHIP. I'M HONORED TO HAVE
TWO WITNESSES ON THE LINE TODAY
WILL BE FOLLOWED BY AS MANY
INDIVIDUAL SUPPORTERS BOTH HERE
IN THE CAPITAL AND ON THE PHONE
LINE. THAT MADE TIME TODAY FOR
THIS IMPORTANT BILL. FIRST
YOU'LL HAVE DOCTOR J.
BHATTACHARYA AN MD AND PHD IN
IN ECONOMICS. WHO IS A
PROFESSOR OF MEDICINE AT THE
STANFORD UNIVERSITY AND A
RESEARCH ASSOCIATE AT THE
NATIONAL BUREAU OF ECONOMICS
RESEARCH. THEY WILL HAVE A
GREAT SHOP IN THE LEGAL COUNSEL
FOR THE ALLIANCE DEFENDING
FREEDOM. A CENTER OF
LEGISLATIVE ADVOCACY. MR NOT
SURE WE'RE READY FOR THAT
WITNESSES IF YOU ARE THANK YOU
SENATE JONES IS- DR PADA
CHARLES IS HE HERE OR ON THE
PHONE LINE. BOTH A KEY
WITNESSES ARE ON THE PHONE ALL
RIGHT. SO MISTER MODERATOR IF%
DR PADA CIARA IS AVAILABLE IF
YOU TO HIM UP. AND IF NOT
DOCTOR PRODUCTS ARE THEN- MR
TELFORD. BUT I REMEMBER. I DO
SHOW THAT- MISTER JOHNSON IS ON
THE LINE YOUR LINE IS OPEN ALL
RIGHT LET'S LET'S START WITH MR
JOHNSON. OKAY THANK YOU VERY
MUCH CHAIR MEMBERS THANK YOU
FOR YOUR TIME HI MY NAME IS
GREG CHAPLAIN I'M A LICENSED
ATTORNEY. AND LEGAL COUNSEL
WITH ALLIANCE DEFENDING
FREEDOM. THE WORLD'S LARGEST
NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION
DEFENDING RELIGIOUS LIBERTY. WE
STRONGLY SUPPORT THIS BILL. THE
BILL PROTECTS THE RIGHT TO
CALIFORNIANS TO WORSHIP AND TO
EXERCISE THEIR FAITH ESPECIALLY
IN DIFFICULT TIMES. AND IT DOES
THIS WHILE STILL ALLOWING THE
STATE TO REQUIRE COMPLIANCE
WITH MUTUAL HEALTH AND SAFETY
STANDARDS TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC.
THE COMMISSION APPROVED THE
BILL FOR THREE REASONS FIRST
WHICH IT IS IMPORTANT TO
CALIFORNIANS AND WORSHIP
SERVICES ARE INTEGRAL PART OF
THE EXERCISE OF RELIGION.
SECOND POTENTIALLY DURING
CRISES WE TO PROTECT THE FREE
EXERCISE OF RELIGION BECAUSE
APART FROM BEING A FUNDAMENTAL
RIGHT. RELIGION IS ALSO A VITAL
SOURCE OF SUPPORT TO PEOPLE IN
THEIR COMMUNITIES. THIRD
CALIFORNIANS NEED THIS BILL MAY
NEED IT NOW. FOR MOST OF THE
PAST YEAR COUNTY CHURCHES AND
PEOPLE OF FATE SUFFERED
VIOLATIONS THAT THEIR RIGHT TO
EXERCISE RELIGION. THERE WERE
MORE COURT CASES ALLEGING
VIOLATIONS OF FREE EXERCISE
RIGHT TO CALIFORNIA THAN ANY
OTHER STATE. AND THIS IS
BECAUSE CALIFORNIA'S
RESTRICTIONS DISCRIMINATED
AGAINST RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS
THREE OF THEM WERE SPECTACULAR
CONTENT THAT POSED COME
TERRIBLE WRITTEN. A CHIEF
JUSTICE ROBERTS NOTED THE STATE
DETERMINATION THAT THE MAXIMUM
NUMBER BUT HEARING THAT COULD
SAFELY WORSHIP WHEN THE MOST
CAVERNOUS CATHEDRAL ZERO.
REFLECTED AN INSUFFICIENT
APPRECIATION OF THE
CONSIDERATION OF THE INTERESTS
AT STAKE. SO WHEN THE EXECUTIVE
BRANCH RESTRICTS CHURCHES ON
THE JUDICIAL BRANCH IS GOING TO
STOP IT BUT UP TO THE
LEGISLATIVE BRANCH TO REMEDY
THE PROBLEM BY NOTHING CONCRETE
PROTECTIONS. THIS BILL RICHARD
THE STATE WILL RESPECT THE
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT THE TAKEN
THREE CHURCHES AT LEAST AS WELL
AS SECULAR BUSINESSES THE
PAYLOAD OPEN. ADJUSTING CAN
CONFIRM HER DEFENSE THE COURT'S
LATEST DECISION. SENATOR JONES
JUST SAID THE FIRST AMENDMENT
REQUIRED THAT IT BE ST LOUIS
CONDUCT AS WELL AS THE PATRIOTS
COMPATIBLE SECULAR CONDUCT. SO
EVEN IF YOU DO NOT ASCRIBE TO
RELIGION OR IF YOU DON'T
BELIEVE THAT COMMUNITY WORSHIP
SERVICES ARE NECESSARY.
MILLIONS OF CALIFORNIANS DO YOU
BELIEVE THAT. AND ASIDE FROM
THAT VERY IMPORTANT
CONSIDERATION THE CONSTITUTION
ITSELF ATTACKED THE FREE
EXERCISE OF RELIGION AS A
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT. IN THIS BILL
PROTECT THAT DELIBERATE I THANK
YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND I. URGE
THE COMMITTEE TO APPROVE THE
BILL. THANK YOU MISTER
CHILDHOOD- MODERATE DR- BUT A
CHAU. ON THE ON THE LAW. I DO
SHOW THE ON LINE YOUR LINE OPEN.
HI THIS IS JAY ABOUT IT. DR GO
AHEAD WHAT WE CAN HEARING THAT
YES WE CAN GO AHEAD AT. OKAY SO
GOOD BECAUSE I CAN GIVE MY
TESTIMONY DONE. SO I I'M- I'M
DOCTOR GAVE A SHARIA I'M A
PROFESSOR OF MEDICINE AT HERE
STANFORD UNIVERSITY- I'M
TALKING IN FAVOR OF THE
RELIGION AND SHELLAC- I'VE BEEN
DOING IT ALL COVERED RESEARCH
INCLUDING MULTIPLE PUBLISHED
PAPERS ON COLD AT THIS ARE
PROBABLY BECAUSE OF IT THE FACT
LOCKDOWN. AND ALSO A CO AUTHOR
OF THE PAPER INTO DECORATIONS
FROM A LOT OF BACKGROUND IN IN
A PUBLIC POLICY AT THAT BEEN
TESTIFYING AS AN EXPERT WITNESS
ON MULTIPLE CASES INVOLVING
CHURCHES INCLUDING AT THE TWO
THAT HAVE GONE TO THE SUPREME
COURT BUT THAT THAT- WOULD HAVE
COME DOWN IN FAVOR. OF CHURCH
OFCHURCH OPENING- SO. AM
STRONG IN OF THIS. FOR A-
LITTLE. AND FOR. THREE MADE
THREE. FIRST IF YOU LOOK AT THE
SCENE. AND WORLD HEALTH.
GUIDANCE ON RELIGIOUS OR-
DURING AND- BOTH OF THEM
AMPLIFY. THE OF- PRIVILEGES.
AND PERMITTING RELIGIOUS
WORSHIP DURING CONDUCT- THAN
SAY THAT- THAT TRADITIONALLY
CLOSED- YOU OR TOWARD. MARSHALL
BECAUSE DOOR OR A SHINING
ACTUALLY BOTH. THAT AT THE GATE
AND THE SOCK REPORT. FREE
RELIGIOUS WORSHIP- SECOND- AND
THIS IS THE MOST POINT. IF
CHURCHES WOULD TO SAY. AND
PUBLIC HEALTH COULD MORE WHICH-
TO HAVE SAFE WORSHIP- AND IT'S
NOW THAT THE IN MANY CHURCHES
PUBLIC HEALTH- JUST CLOSE THE
PUBLIC A LOCAL PUBLIC BASICALLY
JUST CLOSES THE CHARGING DOWN.
BOB AND DOESN'T ALLOW WORSHIP
INSTANCE CREATED A SITUATION
WHERE THERE'S A LOT OF CONFLICT
WHEN THERE DOESN'T. NEED TO BE
IN FACT A PUBLIC IT IF. SURE
TEAM ARE STILL PUBLIC HEALTH
COULD WORK THE CHURCH'S FOR
STATE PORTION TO. LIKE PUBLIC
REPORTS WERE OTHER. BUSINESS
TALKED OPERATE SAFELY DURING
AND AFTER. FINALLY MOST
IMPORTANTLY CHURCH ATTENDANCE
IS A KEY PART OF THAT WHILE
LIVE LIFE FOR MANY MANY PEOPLE
ON THE STREET FOR SYNAGOGUES
AND MOSQUES AS WELL. OBVIOUSLY
IT'S PROTECTED THE PERSON FOR A
REASON- THEY THEY ARE ESSENTIAL
AND SHOULD BE DEEMED ESSENTIAL-
AND THEN THE GOVERNMENT THE
TOLL COULD DO THAT. OUR EFFECT
VIOLATING LEGISLATING WHAT
ACTUALLY- PROTECTING PEOPLE
FROM THE PANDEMIC IT IN WAYS
THAT THEY COULDN'T. BE
MEDICATED WITH STOP WITH. BUT
STILL SORT OF- BUT NOW THE UP

SEVEN. ALL RIGHT THANK YOU MR
MODERATOR WE'RE GOING TO BRING
IT BACK HERE THE CHAMBER I SEE
THAT CENTER BOARD JUST SAYS IS
MIKE UP. SO THE BARGES. THANK
YOU MISTER CHAIR. COLLEAGUES.
IN MY OPINION THIS IS NOT A
PARTISAN ISSUE. I THINK IT'S
IMPORTANT WE KIND OF TAKE A
STEP BACK YOU CAN APPRECIATE
THAT. THIS IS NOT A PARTISAN
ISSUE. I DON'T BELIEVE THIS IS
A THEOLOGICAL ISSUE EITHER IN
NOR IS IT LIMITED ENTIRELY TO-
COVERT RELATED POLICY. IN MY
OPINION THIS IS A
CONSTITUTIONAL ISSUE THAT WE'RE
TRYING TO WRAP OUR ARMS AROUND.
IN A SEMI POSTCODE- THE
SITUATION AS WE GRAPPLE WITH
WITH HOW WE CONDUCT OURSELVES
DURING THE PANDEMIC. THE FIRST
AMENDMENT AS WE'VE WE ALL KNOW.
CONGRESS SHALL MAKE NO LAW
PROHIBITING. THE EXERCISE OF
RELIGION OR PEACEFUL ASSEMBLY.
AND NO STATE SHALL MAKE OR
ENFORCE ANY LAW. THAT DENIES
THE EQUAL PROTECTION OF THE LAW.
I SUBMIT TO YOU COLLEAGUES THAT
I BELIEVE THIS IS A FIRST
AMENDMENT CONSTITUTIONAL ISSUE.
THAT INVOKES EQUAL PROTECTION
PROTECTIONS. LET'S GO BACK TO
WIN THE PANDEMIC BEGAN. WE
DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THE VIRUS HE
TOOK TIME FOR US TO UNDERSTAND
ITS PATHOLOGY. WE BEGIN TO
APPRECIATE THAT- IT WAS
TRANSMITTED BY CLOSE PERSONAL
CONTACT AND THAT OF COURSE GAVE
RISE TO THE HEALTH PROTOCOLS OF
THE MASK MANDATE. THE
DISTANCING AND- THE HAND
WASHING AND- THE DISALLOWANCE
OF ATTENDING CERTAIN ACTIVITIES.
BUT OVER TIME WE BEGIN
UNDERSTAND THAT THERE ARE
CERTAIN HEALTH PROTOCOLS. THAT
WOULD ALLOW FOR A REASONABLY
SAFE ENVIRONMENT FOR THOSE THAT
WANTED TO PARTICIPATE. IN
CERTAIN ACTIVITIES. NOW I'M A
CHURCH GOER MY FATHER'S A
CHURCH GOER MY NINETY ONE YEAR
OLD FATHERS A CHURCH GOER. AND
HE I DON'T THINK EVER REALLY
MISSED A DAY OF CHURCH OR
SUNDAY IN HIS LIFE. BUT WHEN
THIS PANDEMIC HAPPENED GIVEN
HIS- MEDICAL CONDITIONS IN
UNDERLYING SITUATIONS. I DIDN'T
FEEL COMFORTABLE TAKING A TRIP
TAKEN TO CHURCH AND I MYSELF
DIDN'T GO TO CHURCH. FOR A
EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME AND I'M
AN AVID TO CONGREGATE AT SAINT
GEORGE GREEK ORTHODOX CHURCH IN
FRESNO CALIFORNIA. BUT I
BELIEVE IN SCIENCE AND I
BELIEVE IN DOUBT AND I BELIEVE
ON LEARNING FROM EXPERTS. I WAS
A PROFESSOR FOR OVER A DECADE
NINE I HOLD THOSE INDIVIDUALS
THAT ARE SUFFICIENTLY SCHOOLED
AND EDUCATED IN RESPECTIVE
DISCIPLINES THAT THEY TELL ME.
THAT THERE ARE CERTAIN
ACTIVITIES YOU SHOULD AVOID OR
AT LEAST UNDERTAKE TO MITIGATE
THE RISKS THAT ALL LISTEN TO
THEM. SO I DID NOT GO TO CHURCH
FOR A WHILE. AND I BELIEVE THAT
WAS THE RIGHT COURSE OF ACTION.
BUT THEN SOMETHING CHANGED WE
BECAME BETTER AWARE OF WHAT THE
PATHOLOGY OF THE VIRUS ONCE. IN
HOW WE COULD STILL PARTICIPATE
ON A LIMITED BASIS. WHETHER IT
BE GOING TO THE GROCERY STORE
TO HOME DEPOT OR- INTERACTING
WITH OTHER FOLKS. SO WHEN
CERTAIN RULES WERE PUT FORWARD
THAT DISALLOWED. CONGREGANTS
FROM ASSEMBLING ON CHURCH
GROUNDS. I WOULD ASK MYSELF
WHAT IS MY CHURCH DOING TO
PROTECT THESE INDIVIDUALS
BECAUSE CAT COUNTY LAW AND
STATE LAW WE'RE DISALLOWING
CERTAIN ACTIVITIES. BUT I
DIDN'T REALIZE THAT THERE WAS
SUFFICIENT SOCIAL DISTANCING
THAT IT WAS OUTSIDE. AND ALL
THE RELEVANT PROTECTIONS AND
PROTOCOLS ARE PUT INTO PLACE.
YET INDIVIDUALS AND MOSQUES
TEMPLES AND CHURCHES WERE NOT
ALLOWED FOR- TO BE OPEN FOR
BUSINESS. THAT'S WHY BRING UP
THIS ISSUE OF. THE
CONSTITUTIONALITY. OF WHAT
OCCURRED AND WHY THIS IS NOT A
PARTISAN ISSUE INSIDE A
RELIGIOUS ISSUE. IF WE BELIEVE
THAT WE HAVE A RIGHT TO
ASSEMBLE. THEN WE NEED TO MAKE
CERTAIN THAT WE FIGHT FOR THAT
RIGHT ON THE SOLE CONDITION.
THAT WE ARE ABIDING BY THE
PREVAILING HEALTH PROTOCOLS. SO
AS A MATTER OF EQUAL PROTECTION
THE QUESTION THAT WE MUST ASK
OURSELVES. WERE THESE CHURCHES
FOR THESE MOSQUES OR THE
SYNAGOGUES. PRACTICING THE
PREVAILING HEALTH DIRECTIVES OF
THE STATE THE CDC OR THE LOCAL
AUTHORITIES IF THE ANSWER WAS
YES. BUT I BELIEVE THAT WE HAVE
A RIGHT TO ATTEND. UNDER THOSE
LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES. SO I
THINK THIS BILL TALKS ABOUT.
WHETHER GOING TO CHURCH OR
MOSQUE OR TEMPLE IS AN
ESSENTIAL ACTIVITY. I ASK
MYSELF IF CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS.
ARE CONSIDERED ESSENTIAL IN
AMERICA THAN BEING ABLE TO
ATTEND THESE ACTIVITIES ON THE
SOLE CONDITION BUT THEY ARE
ABIDING BY THE PREVAILING
HEALTH DIRECTIVES. THAT THAT IS
A CONSTITUTIONALLY PROTECTED
ESSENTIAL ACTIVITIES. I'M NOT
SURE HOW YOU CAN GET AROUND
THAT I WANNA BE VERY CLEAR MY
COLLEAGUES. I DID NOT SEND MY
FATHER TO CHURCH BECAUSE I
DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THE VIRUS. I
DID NOT SEND MY FATHER CHURCH
FOR MY FAMILY IF THERE WERE
CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE THERE WAS
NO SOCIAL DISTANCING THERE'S NO
MASK WEARING AND THERE'S IT
WASN'T OUTDOORS BUT ON THE
CONDITION THAT IT WAS. IT WAS
CONSISTENT. WITH THOSE
PREVAILING AUTHORITY DIRECTORS
I COULD NOT SEE A DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN GOING TO HOME DEPOT.
AND GOING TO CHURCH. AND THAT I
THINK IS WHAT THIS ISSUE IS
ABOUT TODAY. IS THAT IF WE
BELIEVE THAT CONSTITUTIONAL
RIGHTS OF RELIGION AND ASSEMBLY
IN THE EQUAL APPLICATION. OF
THE LAW. WE MUST FIND OURSELVES
IN THE LEGAL DIRECTION THAT IT
THAT THAT GOING TO CHURCH OR
MOSQUE OR TEMPLE. IS A
CONSTITUTIONALLY PROTECTED
ACTIVITY. THAT'S WHY COLLEAGUES
AT ASK YOU. MAKE CERTAIN YOU
DON'T GET SEDUCED BY THE
PARTISAN NATURE OF HOW THIS
ISSUE HAS ARISEN IN THE MEDIA.
THIS IS A CONSTITUTIONAL
QUESTION NOT A THEOLOGICAL
QUESTION. THANK YOU SIR
BURGESS- CENTER HERTZBERG IS
YOUR MICHAEL. THANK YOU MR
CHAIRMAN. I COMPLETELY AGREE.
WITH MY COLLEAGUE. THAT THIS IS
ABOUT THE CONSTITUTION. THIS
HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH
PARTISANSHIP IT HAS TO DO WITH
THE SAKE RIGHTS. ENUMERATED THE
FIRST AMENDMENT OF THE UNITED
STATES CONSTITUTION. CONGRESS
SHALL MAKE NO LAW WHETHER IT'S
FREE SPEECH FREE PRESS ASSEMBLY
OR RELIGION NO QUESTION ABOUT
IT. BUT THAT'S NOT REALLY HOW
THE CONSTITUTION'S BEEN
INTERPRETED. SIMPLE EXAMPLES
JUSTICE HOME SAID YOU CAN'T
YELL FIRE IN A CROWDED THEATER
WE HAVE RIGHT FREE SPEECH.
DON'T HAVE A RIGHT TO SAY FREE
SPEECH HE'LL FIRED A CREDITOR
NO BECAUSE IT CREATES A CLEAR
AND PRESENT DANGER. TO TEST
WHETHER IT'S RELIGION OR
ASSEMBLY. OR OUR- SPEECH. IS
BALANCED BY AND POLICE POWER AS
WE TRY TO CREATE A WORKABLE
GOVERNMENT. WE WANT TO MAKE
SURE THAT THESE RIGHTS ARE HELD
IN THE HIGHEST. SACRED NATURE
OF WHICH THEY ARE INFORMED AND
OUR CONSTITUTION BUT THERE IS
ALSO A BALANCE. SO NOW YOU HAVE
AN EXECUTIVE FACED WITH AN
EXTRAORDINARY EMERGENCY. THE
QUESTION IS OF COURSE UNDER
CONSTITUTIONAL PRINCIPLES THEY
HAVE TO EXERCISE STRICT
SCRUTINY IN THAT REGARD. NO
QUESTION BUT A STRICT READING
OF WHAT WAS ARTICULATED HERE
AND WHAT'S ARTICULATED THIS
BILL IS THAT WERE BASICALLY
TURNING OVER THE POLICE POWERS
DETERMINATION OF WHAT SHOULD
AND SHOULDN'T DO TO THE COURTS
WERE ELIMINATING EXECUTIVES
IRRESPECTIVE OF WHAT THEIR
POWER IS TO MAKE THOSE
DETERMINATIONS OF ALL OF US
SAID THERE'S AN OUTBREAK OF
LEPROSY. IF THERE'S A SHOOTER
THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT IT
HAPPENS TO HAVE A CHURCH AND WE
WANT TO IMPOSE A CURFEW BECAUSE
WE WANT TO PROTECT. PEOPLE FROM
GETTING SHOT AND THEY SAY WELL
I WANT TO BE ABLE TO HAVE A
RELIGIOUS OR I WANT TO BE ABLE
TO ASSEMBLE IN WHATEVER MY
ORGANIZATIONS COULD BE THE
QANTAS CLUB I'M SORRY THE
GOVERNMENT HAS A POLICE POWER.
TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC AND IF
YOU IF YOU ANALYZE THE CASES I
HAVE READ IN. ATTENDED VERSES
NEWSOME IT CAME DOWN APRIL
NINTH I THINK THAT THE GUIDANCE
BASICALLY WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS
ONE OF THE ARGUMENTS IT SEEMS
TO ME IN READING THIS CASE. IS
THAT IT'S REALLY A FACT BASED
CASE THAT THE EXECUTIVE RDER
SHOULD HAVE MORE CLEARLY
ARTICULATE GIVEN THE FACT THAT
THIS RELATES TO FUNDAMENTAL
RIGHTS OF ASSEMBLY OR
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF RELIGION.
IT SHOULD HAVE MORE CLEARLY
ARTICULATED THIS BUT IN ESSENCE
WHAT JUSTICE. KAGAN SAYS JOIN
WITH. R. J. BRYER JUST TO SORT
OF MY ORDER. SHE TALKS ABOUT
YOU KNOW WHETHER THERE'S A RISK
OR NOT. IN IN LOOKING AT THE
COURT AND THEY MAKE THREE
POINTS FIRST WHEN PEOPLE GATHER
IN SOCIAL SETTINGS THE
INTERACTIONS ARE LIKELY TO BE
LONGER. THAN THEY WOULD BE IN A
COMMERCIAL SETTING AND LOOKING
AT THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN
TAPPING THE COMMERCIAL CONTEXT.
PERSON ASSEMBLY WHETHER IT'S
RELIGIOUS OTHERWISE SECONDLY.
RIVA HOUSE ARE TYPICALLY
SMALLER AND LESS VENTILATED.
THAN COMMERCIAL ESTABLISHMENT
THIRD SOCIAL DISTRICTS AGAIN
MASS WEARING ARE LESS LIKELY IN
PRIVATE SETTINGS IN ENFORCEMENT
IS MORE DIFFICULT. IN OTHER
ORDS SHE TOOK THIS THE
NECESSARY STEPS TO DO THE
DIAGNOSTIC IN THAT REGARD. BUT
THE PRINCIPLES REMAIN THE SAME.
IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE TO RUN A
GOVERNMENT. IF YOU STIFF IF
YOU'RE TERM PROTECTION OF THE
CONSTITUTION. AS SET FORTH IN
THIS MEASURE WAS SO STRICT.
THAT IT LITERALLY NO MATTER
WHAT HAPPENED YOU'D BE TO
FEARFUL. THAT YOU COULD NOT
ENGAGE THE POLICE POWER TO DEAL
WITH. WHATEVER THE ISSUE WAS
BECAUSE YOU'RE TOO WORRIED THAT
THE STRICT INTERPRETATION OF
THE LAWS WRITTEN WOULD
ELIMINATE YOUR ABILITY DO SO.
SO YES THESE ARE SACRED RIGHTS
BUT THEIR BALANCE FOR ALL OF US
IN SOCIETY BECAUSE WE LIVE
TOGETHER WE WORK TOGETHER WE
LIVE IN TH SAME COMMUNITIES.
TO BE ABLE TO WORK TO MAKE IT.
UNDERSTANDABLE IN A WORKABLE
WAY THIS IS A GLOBAL PANDEMIC
THAT AFFECTED ALL ELEMENTS. OF
THE YOU THAT YOU SEE THAT
STATES BUT THE GLOBE. AND SO
THAT REGARD. I THINK THAT- THAT
THIS MEASURE YES- PROPERLY
CHARACTERIZED BY MY COLLEAGUES
AND FRESNO. IT I TAKE A
DIFFERENT INTERPRETATION. AND
WOULD NOT SUPPORT THIS MEASURE.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH MISS HERE.
THANK YOU SENATOR. HOT SEEING
NO OTHER MY- THAT ARE ALL.
SENATOR BOARD JUST MOVES THE
BILL. SENATOR JOHN SECURE CLOSE.
MISTER MISTER CHAIR THANK YOU
VERY MUCH I DO WANT TO THANK
BOTH THE- THE SENATOR IN
SUPPORT IN THE SENATE
OPPOSITION FOR THEIR WELL
THOUGHT OUT AND- RESPECTFUL
COMMENTS. MISTER CHAIR I ALSO
WANT TO SAY THAT- I THINK
YOU'VE VERY FAIRLY. CONDUCTED
THE HEARING AND I APPRECIATE
YOUR DILIGENCE IN- LISTENING TO
THE SUPPORTERS. OF THE BILL-
I'M GONNA THINK ALSO THE ALL
THE PEOPLE THAT TESTIFIED TODAY
THAT HAVE WAITED A LONG TIME TO
BE ABLE TO SHARE THEIR VOICES
ON THIS IMPORTANT ISSUE. WE
RECEIVE SUPPORT FROM OVER SEVEN
THOUSAND INDIVIDUALS- SO THANK
YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO HEAR
FROM JUST A SELECT PORTION OF
THEM TODAY AND THAT SEVEN
THOUSAND. IS ACROSS THE STATE-
WHEN WE INTRODUCED THIS BILL. I
WAS OVERWHELMED WITH MEDIA
REQUESTS AND- COMMENTS FROM ALL
OVER THE STATE. AND WHAT ARE
OUR INTENTION IS TO COMMUNICATE
IF YOU'RE CONSTITUENTS REACH
OUT TO OUR OFFICE AT TO MAKE
SURE THAT YOU HAVE THAT
COMMUNICATION FROM YOUR OWN
CONSTITUENTS. I HAVE A COUPLE
FINAL THOUGHTS BEFORE WE VOTE
NOW FIRST AS WE KNOW THE U. S.
SUPREME COURT HAD TO INTERVENE
TWICE. IN THE LAST FEW MONTHS
WHEN THE GOVERNOR'S. WHEN THE
GOVERNOR SOUGHT TO COMPLETELY
SHUT DOWN HOUSES OF WORSHIP THE
SUPREME COURT RULED THAT WHILE
THE GOVERNOR CAN IMPOSE.
REASONABLE SAFETY RESTRICTIONS
AND LIMITS. I GOVERNOR CANNOT
ARBITRARILY PADLOCK CHURCHES
SHRINES TEMPLES MOSQUES AND
SYNAGOGUES. EVEN THE DISSENTERS
IN THESE DECISIONS BELIEVE THAT
THE GOVERNOR CANNOT ARBITRARILY
TREAT RELIGION DIFFERENTLY THAN
SIMILAR SECULAR ACTIVITIES. AS
JUSTICE SOTOMAYOR WAS QUOTED
THE- EARLIER- QUARTER AGAIN.
QUOTE THEY MAY RESTRICTED
TENDENCY TO HOUSES OF WORSHIP
SO LONG AS COMPARED WILL
SECULAR INSTITUTIONS FACE
RESTRICTIONS THAT ARE AT LEAST
EQUALLY AS STRICT. END QUOTE.
THIS SEEMS PRETTY CLEAR IT
AFTER THE RULING IN FEBRUARY
THE COURT HAD TO STEP IN AGAIN
ON FRIDAY NIGHT AND RAIN IN OUR
GOVERNOR THIS TIME FOR IN HOME
PRIVATE RELIGIOUS GATHERINGS MY
POINT IS THAT WHILE I BELIEVE
THE COURT GOT THESE RULINGS
RIGHT TO MAKE SURE THAT A
FUTURE GOVERNOR DURING A FUTURE
EMERGENCY DOESN'T I TRY THIS
AGAIN. WE NEED TO GUARANTEE THE
RIGHT TO PRACTICE ONE'S
RELIGION. IN STATE LAW. SENATE
BILL THREE NINETY SEVEN WILL DO
THIS SIMPLY. DECLARING THAT
RELIGION IS ESSENTIAL AND
SHOULD BE ON EQUAL FOOTING.
WITH ALL OTHER SERVICES AND
INDUSTRIES. DESIGNATED AS
ESSENTIAL DURING AN EMERGENCY.
SECOND WE HAVE SEEN THE
FRIGHTENING STATISTICS ABOUT
THE AFFECT GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWNS
IN ISOLATION ARE HAVING ON OUR
FAMILIES OUR FRIENDS AND OUR
CONSTITUENTS. FEELINGS OF
DEPRESSION ARE REPORTED TO BE
UP AS HIGH AS FORTY TWO
PERCENT. ANXIETY IS UP FOURTEEN
PERCENT. DRUG OVERDOSES ARE UP
5017% BINGE DRINKING IS UP 14%
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AS FAR AS WE
KNOW IS UP NINE PERCENT. NUMBER
SIX V. BEGINNING TO SEE MORE
AND MORE REPORTS IN THE AND THE
NEWS MEDIA A TEEN AND YOUTH
SUICIDE- AND ATTEMPTS. I COULD
GO ON AND ON. BUT WE ALL KNOW
THAT THE GOVERNMENT ORDERED
SHUTDOWNS HAVE EXASPERATED
THESE NUMBERS. ARE ALL OF THESE
INCREASES DUE SOLELY TO THE
CLOSURE OF HOUSES OF WORSHIP OF
COURSE NOT. IT HAS CERTAINLY
BEEN A CONTRIBUTING FACTOR FOR
MANY. ALL THIS BILL ASKS IS FOR
THE PEOPLE OF EVERY COLOR. READ
GENDER AGE REGION LIFESTYLE AND
POLITICAL PERSUASION. ABLE TO
ENGAGE IN THEIR FREEDOM TO
PRACTICE THEIR RELIGION WITH
THEIR FELLOW PRACTITIONERS. WE
HAVE A RIGHT TO SAFELY SHOP IN
A CROWDED BIG BOX STORE SURELY
WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO SAFELY
ATTEND RELIGIOUS SERVICES. I
ASK FOR YOUR AYE VOTE ON THIS
STRAIGHT FORWARD AND CRITICALLY
IMPORTANT MAJOR THANK YOU
CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS. ASK FOR
AN AYE VOTE. THANK YOU SENATOR
JONES FOR YOUR HARD WORK ON

NEXT MOVED TO CENTER LEVELS
BILL SB THREE THREE ONE. SENATE
LABOR THE FLOOR'S YOURS.
STRUCTURE GOOD AFTERNOON I WANT
TO FIRST THANK THE COMMITTEE
STAFF FOR THEIR WORK WITH MY
OFFICE ON THIS IMPORTANT BILL
MUCH APPRECIATED SENATE BILL
THREE THREE ONE ALSO KNOWN AS
THE SILENCE NO MORE ACT EXPANDS
THE PROHIBITION ON
NONDISCLOSURE AGREEMENTS ALSO
KNOWN AS NDAS IN SETTLEMENT
AGREEMENTS INVOLVING SEXUAL
HARASSMENT SEXUAL ASSAULT
SEXUAL DISCRIMINATION TO COVER
SETTLEMENT AGREEMENTS
INVOLVING. ALL FORMS OF
HARASSMENT OR DISCRIMINATION
THIS BILL ALSO EXPANDS THE
PROHIBITION ON OVERLY BROAD
CONFIDENTIALITY AND NON
DISPARAGEMENT CLAUSES IN
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS TO COVER
WORKERS WHO ARE REQUIRED TO
SIGN THESE TYPES OF CLAUSES AS
PART OF A SEVERANCE PACKAGE. AS
YOU MAY REMEMBER I AUTHORED AND
THEN GOVERNOR BROWN SIGNED INTO
LAW SB EIGHT TWENTY ALSO KNOWN
AS A STAND ACT IN TWO THOUSAND
EIGHTEEN SB EIGHT TWENTY
SPECIFICALLY BANNED
NONDISCLOSURE AGREEMENTS TO
CASES OF SEXUAL HARASSMENT
SEXUAL ASSAULT AND SEX
DISCRIMINATION. IMPORTANTLY THE
ACT ALSO PERMITS THE CLAIMANTS
REQUEST CONFIDENTIALITY IF THEY
SO CHOOSE. NOTHING THIS
HISTORIC LAW THE LEGISLATURE
RECOGNIZE THAT SECRET
SETTLEMENTS OR HELPING TO
PERPETRATE HOSTILE WORK
ENVIRONMENTS BY ALLOWING
COMPLAIN TENDS TO BE SWEPT
UNDER THE RUG. OF COURSE SECRET
SETTLEMENTS PLAY AS MUCH OF A
ROLE IN PERPETUATING WORK
DISCRIMINATION HARASSMENT AND
BIAS BASED ON RACE ETHNICITY
SEXUAL ORIENTATION AGE
DISABILITY AND RELIGION.
BECAUSE HERE TO COMPLAIN TENS
OR CAPS THE COMPLAINTS ARE KEPT
SECRET AND THOSE WHO RAISE THE
COMPLAINTS ARE EFFECTIVELY
SILENCED. MEMBERS IT IS
UNACCEPTABLE FOR ANY EMPLOYER
TO TRY TO SILENCE A WORKER
BECAUSE HE OR SHE WAS A VICTIM
OF ANY TYPE OF HARASSMENT OR
DISCRIMINATION DISCRIMINATION.
SB THREE THREE ONE WILL EMPOWER
SURVIVORS TO SPEAK OUT IF THEY
SO WISH SO THE PERPETRATORS CAN
BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND WE CAN
HOPEFULLY PREVENT ABUSERS FROM
CONTINUING TO TORMENT AND ABUSE
OTHER WORKERS. LASTLY I'M
ACCEPTING THE AMENDMENTS AS
NOTED IN THE COMMITTEE ANALYSIS
THAT WILL MAKE CLEAR THAT THIS
BILL DOES NOT PREVENT AN
EMPLOYER FROM INCLUDING A
RELEASE OF CLAIMS AND A
SEVERANCE AGREEMENT. IT DOES
NOT PREVENT AN EMPLOYER FROM
PROHIBITING THE DISCLOSURE OF
ANY AMOUNT OF PAID. ANY AMOUNT
PAID ANY SETTLEMENT OR
SEVERANCE AGREEMENT AND IT OF
COURSE DOES NOT PREVENT AN
EMPLOYER FROM PROHIBITING THE
DISCLOSURE OF TRADE SECRETS
PROPRIETARY INFORMATION OR
CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION THAT
DOES NOT INVOLVE UNLAWFUL ACTS
IN THE WORKPLACE. HERE WITH ME
REMOTELY TO TESTIFY TO SHARE
HER OWN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE AS
THE FORMER OSAMA. N. AS WELL

MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE THANK
YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO TESTIFY
TODAY MY ENTIRE CAREER HAS BEEN
AS A TAX PUBLIC POLICY
OFFICIALS USUALLY ENGAGING WITH
OFFICES LIKE YOURS ON BEHALF OF
LARGE COMPANIES LIKE GOOGLE
FACEBOOK AND PENTRE. BACK MY
LAST WORK TRIP BEFORE THE
PANDEMIC SHUT DOWN PROBLEM ALL
WHAT COULD BE SEATED FOR THAT
WORK AYE LAD ON HEALTH
MISINFORMATION. THAT WAS JUST
DAYS BEFORE PINTEREST LAWYERS
PRESENTED ME WITH A HIGHLY
RESPECTED THE NDA THAT WAS
MEANT TO KEEP ME SILENT ABOUT
THE RACE AND GENDER
DISCRIMINATION AND RETALIATION
CLAIMS THAT I AGREED QUIETLY
OVER THE PREVIOUS YEAR. WHEN I
EVENTUALLY DECIDED TO COME
FORWARD PUBLICLY I ALONG WITH
THE COURAGEOUS FORMER COLLEAGUE
NAMED ERICA COMMUNITY BANK. DID
SO WITH THE KNOWLEDGE THAT
WOULD BE COVERED FOR
DISCLOSURES RELATED TO GENDER
BASED DISCRIMINATION UNDER AT
EIGHT TWENTY WHICH WERE SO
GRATEFUL TO SENATOR LEYVA FOR
OFFERING DURING THE ME TOO
pBLACK WOMEN WE COULD NOT
DISENTANGLE OUR RATE FOR MY
GENDER WHICH MEANT THAT MENTION
OF THE RACE DISCRIMINATION WE
IN DEREK COULD RESULT IN LEGAL
RETALIATION. NO OTHER WORKERS
SHOULD BE IN A POSITION WHERE
PART OF THEIR IDENTITY ISN'T
COVERED WHEN IT COMES TO
DISCLOSING EXPERIENCES. OF
DISCRIMINATION. AND HE IS LIKE
THE I NO CLUE BUT TO SIGN OUR
USED BY. ACROSS CALIFORNIA.
WORKERS UP ON TO MENTALLY
AMERICANS EACH RIGHT. IN THE
MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC HOW MANY
WORKERS CAN REFUSE TO SIGN ONE
OF THESE AGREEMENTS. AT THE
EXPENSE OF THE INCOME OUR

AND THEIR FAMILIES. WHAT'S
WORSE IS THAT COMPANIES DON'T
EVEN NEED TO AND BE ABLE TO
KEEP THEIR PROPRIETARY
INFORMATION SAY. THAT INFO IS
ALREADY PROTECTED TO THE EAST
OF CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENTS
EMPLOYEES MIGHT FIND WHEN
THEY'RE HIRED. FINALLY THIS
BILL MY DAUGHTER GREEN. COULD
ALSO BENEFIT THE BUSINESS
COMMUNITY BY INCREASING
TRANSPARENCY FOR SHAREHOLDERS.
UNLESS INDIVIDUALS SPEAK UP
SHAREHOLDERS ARE OFTEN KEPT IN
THE DARK ABOUT MISCONDUCT AT
THE COMPANIES IN WHICH THEY
HAVE A FINANCIAL STAKE. SB

WILL AND THE- THANK YOU. THANK
YOU MISS OSAMA MISTER RICH IF
YOU'RE ON THE LINE. YES GOOD
AFTERNOON MR CHAIRMAN AND
MEMBERS- I'M AN EMPLOYMENT
ATTORNEY IN OAKLAND. OVER THE
COURSE OF MY CAREER I
REPRESENTED EMPLOYERS PUBLIC
ENTITIES AN EMPLOYEE. IN A
VARIETY OF EMPLOYMENT DISPUTES
REVIEWING AND NEGOTIATING
SETTLEMENT AND SEVERANCE
AGREEMENTS AS A AS A LARGE PART
OF MY PRACTICE- I'M HERE TODAY
ON BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIAN
PLANET LAWYERS ASSOCIATION. AND
IT MISSES SOME OF THE TOURNEY-
TO SPEAK IN FAVOR OF SB THREE
THREE ONE WILD NON
DISPARAGEMENT CLAUSES AND SEVEN
SCREAMIN. HAPPY COME MORE
COMMON OVER THE PAST FEW
DECADES THEY HAVE LITTLE SOCIAL
VALUE AND WHY SHOULD.
CALIFORNIANS LOOK FOR A SAFE
PLACE TO WORK UNABLE TO GATHER
INFORMATION ON GLASS DOOR FOR
EXAMPLE. BECAUSE FRMER
EMPLOYEES ARE TERRIFIED OF
PUBLICLY THING TRUTHFUL THINGS
ABOUT THEIR EXPERIENCES OF
HARASSMENT OR DISCRIMINATION.
IN FACT RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT
THE AVAILABILITY OF NON
ANONYMOUS INFORMATION GLASSDOOR
ACTUALLY INCREASED AFTER SB
EIGHT TWENTY. RESTRICTED THE
USE OF SECRET SETTLEMENTS. AS I
UNDERSTAND IT OPPONENT OF SB
THREE THREE ONE ARGUE THAT THE
BILL WILL DISCOURAGE EMPLOYERS
FROM PAYING SEVERANCE TO
WORKERS AND I HAVE TO NOTE THAT
A SIMILAR ACCUSATION WAS MADE
ABOUT SB EIGHT TWENTY THAT WITH
THAT IF YOU TAKE AWAY THE NDA.
PARTIES WON'T BE ABLE TO SETTLE
CASES AND I CAN SAY THAT IN MY
EXPERIENCE THAT IS NOT THAT HAS
NOT HAPPENED. WHEN NDAS WERE
TAKEN OFF THE TABLE THEY JUST
NO LONGER BECAME A PART OF THE
NEGOTIATION. WHAT WE KNOW IS
THAT THE TRUE VALUE IN A
SEVERANCE AGREEMENT AND RELEASE
THE CLIENT NOT. HE CHRISSY
PROVISION. A RELEASE AVOID THE
POSSIBILITY OF MONTHS OR YEARS
OF LITIGATION THE POTENTIAL AN
ADVERSE JUDGMENT. FURTHER I I'D
ARGUE THAT THE SECRECY
PROVISIONS ARE EFFECTIVELY
ENFORCEABLE- IN MY THIRTY YEARS
OF LAW PRACTICE THE ONLY
ENFORCEMENT ACTION I. CAN
REMEMBER BEING AWARE OF WHAT'S
DONALD TRUMP'S CLAIM AGAINST
OUR BEGAN AGAIN. NO RATIONAL
PLAYERS TO TWENTY FORCING NON
DISPARAGEMENT CAUGHT DOING SO
COMPLETELY PUBLICIZED. THE
ALLEGED DISPARAGING COMMENTS
BUT WE KNOW IS THAT THE TRUE
VALUE IN THESE PROVISIONS AS
THEIR INTERIM FACT AWAY TO
INTIMIDATE EMPLOYEES THE THING
STYLE AND EVEN ABOUT UNLAWFUL
DISCRIMINATION OR HARASSMENT.
IT'S NOT ONLY HURTS WORKERS
ENDANGERS PUBLIC SAFETY AND THE
PUBLIC GOOD AND DOES A
DISSERVICE TO LAW ABIDING
EMPLOYERS WHO ARE COMPETING FOR
EMPLOYEES IN THE JOB MARKET WE
URGE THE TWENTY TO VOTE YES ON
SB THREE THREE ONE. THANK YOU
MR AGAIN IF YOU WOULD STICK
AROUND HERE- UNTIL WE TAKE
OTHER SUPPORT OPPOSITION- I
HAVE A COUPLE QUESTIONS. ALL
RIGHT YEAH OF COURSE. C. NOLAN
NELSON MCGARY- IN SUPPORT IF
YOU'D TURN TO ROOM ONE TWELVE.
NO ONE IN ONE ROOM ONE TWELVE
ALL RIGHT LET'S GO TO THE PHONE
LINE MISTER MODERATOR- IF THOSE
LAWRENCE SUPPORT WOULD QUEUE UP.
WILL TAKE YOUR NAME YOUR
AFFILIATION IN YOUR POSITION.
MISTER MODERATOR AND IF YOU'D
LIKE TO QUEUE UP FOR SUPPORT IT
IS ONE TWO ZERO AT THIS TIME.
ONCE AGAIN IF YOU LIKE TO PLACE
A LINE IN Q. FOUR SUPPORT IT IS
ONE NINE ZERO AT THIS TIME. AND
IF THERE ARE NO LINES IN Q. ALL
RIGHT. LET'S NOT TURN THE
OPPOSITION I UNDERSTAND THAT-
MISS ASHLEY HOFFMAN. IT IS IN
OPPOSITION IS THAT CORRECT
CENTER LABEL. I BELIEVE THAT
THE CHAMBER IS NO LONGER IN
OPPOSITION BUT SHE HAVE A MAY
HAVE A STATEMENT SHE WANTS TO
MAKE A ALL RIGHT IF MISS
HOFFMAN IS ON THE LINE. MISTER
MODERATOR IF YOU WOULD OPEN FOR
HER. THANK YOU THINK YOU MISTER
CHAIR MEMBERS THIS IS ACTUALLY
HOPPIN ON BEHALF OF THE
CALIFORNIA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE-
I WANT TO START BY THINKING
FOUNDER LEYVA AND HER STAFF AND
THE COMMITTEE STAFF FOR WORKING
WITH US ON AMENDMENTS TO
ADDRESS OUR CONCERNS- JUST
BECAUSE LOOKING AT A COUPLE
DAYS AGO WE ARE PRESENTLY
REVIEWING THOSE AMENDMENTS WITH
OUR MEMBERS. AND WILL ISSUE A
LETTER NOTING ANY CHANGE IN OUR
POSITION APPROPRIATE- THANK YOU
FOR YOUR TIME TODAY I DO NOT
YOU. THANK YOU ARE THERE ANY
OTHER PRIMARY WITNESSES IN
OPPOSITION. IF WE HAVE ANYONE
IN OPPOSITION IT IS ONE ZERO AT
THIS TIME. ALL RIGHT MISTER
MAYOR ON THE LINE THANK YOU IF
THERE'S ANYONE IN OPPOSITION IF
YOU WOULD TO THEM UP PLEASE.
AND AGAIN IF THERE IS ANYON
WHO'D LIKE TO QUEUE UP A
PROPOSITION IT IS ONE DIDN'T
ZERO. AND THERE ARE NO LINES
ALL RIGHT THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
LET ME TURN TO THE GALLERY I
THINK I DID TURN THE GALLERY
THERE'S NO IN THE GALLERY IN
OPPOSITION AND JUST TO BE SURE
ROOM ONE TWELVE THERE'S NO ONE
IN ROOM ONE TWELVE IN
OPPOSITION. WE'RE GOING TO
BRING IT BACK HERE TO THE
CHAMBER- LET ME GO TO MISTER
BROKEN FOR JUST ONE MOMENT-
MISTER REGAN IS STILL WITH US.
OR OR CENTER LEVEL NINE AM TO
TAKE THIS QUESTION. PROBABLY
THE ATTORNEY WOULD BE BEST
SUITED TO ASK THE QUESTION. ALL
RIGHT SO- MR RUBIN. I REALIZE
THERE'S A DANGER EXTRAPOLATING
FROM LIMITED EXPERIENCE OF THE
GENERAL CASE IN MY LIMITED
EXPERIENCE THAT- THE- LEVERAGE
POINT WITH RESPECT TO NON
DISPARAGEMENT AND NON
DISCLOSURE IT IS A SIGNIFICANT
VALUE THAT THE VICTIM. MAY BE
GIVING UP IN I UNDERSTAND- THIS
BILL IS THAT IT IS STILL
POSSIBLE TO NEGOTIATE A NON
DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT AT SOME
POINT IN TIME IS THAT CORRECT.
THAT IS CORRECT IN IT I MEAN I
THINK THOSE. THEY'RE GOVERNED
BY ONE THOUSAND ONE YEAH RIGHT
IT WOULD POINT IN THE PROCESS
FROM POINT OF INCIDENT TO
RESOLUTION CAN YOU ENTER INTO A
NONDISCLOSURE AGREEMENT. WHILE
IT ACTED SO WITH THIS THIS BILL
FILLS A GAP THAT CURRENTLY
EXISTS BECAUSE RIGHT NOW YOU
KNOW WE HAVE WE HAVE BUT THE
LEGAL PARADIGM THAT SAYS YOU
CAN'T HAVE. NDA AS A CONDITION
OF EMPLOYMENT AND WE ALSO HAVE
A PROCEDURE- THANKS THE SENATE
AWAY THIS BILL A TWENTY THAT.
THAT DRESSES- NONDISCLOSURE
PROVISIONS IN THE COUNTRY THE
SETTLEMENT BUT WHAT WAS MISSING
HERE IS- A. A- A PROVISION THAT
DEALT WITH NONDISCLOSURE. I
AGREEMENTS NON DISPARAGEMENT
CLAUSES THAT WERE BEING IMPOSED
ON WORKERS KIND OF AT THE AT
THE POINT OF SEPARATION OF
EMPLOYMENT AND SO NOW AT THAT
POINT UNDER UNDER THIS PROPOSED
LEGISLATION. BUT BACK KIND OF
PREVENT PROVISIONAL BE UNLAWFUL
UNLESS THERE WAS. AB A
COMPLAINT ADMINISTRATIVE
COMPLAINT A COURT COMPLAINT OR
AN INTERNAL- COMPLAINT HAS BEEN
FILED- IN WHICH CASE WE WOULD
REVERT TO THE PROTECTION OF-
OF. THE ONE THOUSAND ONE. OKAY
AND I UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE
NEGLECTED TO GO TO THE PHONE
LINES IN TERMS SUPPORT I WILL
DO SO JUST SECOND BUT I JUST
WANT TO FOCUS FOR SECOND ON ON
NON DISCLOSURE IT BUT POINT
BETWEEN AN INCIDENT. AND THE
RESOLUTION CAN YOU. HAVE A
PROVISION THAT PROVIDES FOR NON
DISCLOSURE. WELL YOU CAN HAVE A
PROVISION PROVIDING FOR. YEAH
SO WHEN YOU THINK NONDISCLOSURE
YOU MEAN A NON DISPARAGEMENT
CLAUSES OR PROVISIONS THAT YOU
CAN'T DISCLOSE ANYTHING ABOUT
THE- SO THERE'S DEFINITELY IN
THE WORKPLACE NINE. I DON'T
WANT TO GET THE PUBLICLY BUT IS
UNDERSTAND THAT THERE'S TWO
DIFFERENT. FILE ITEMS HERE ONE
IS A NON DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT
WITH THIS PROVISION AGREEMENT
SAYS YOU CANNOT DISCLOSE THE
TERMS OF THE SETTLEMENT. AND
THEN THERE'S ANOTHER. CONCEPT
AND THAT'S NON DISPARAGEMENT
WHERE YOU CAN'T DISPARAGE THE
OTHER PARTY. SO IN SEPARATING
THE TWO- IT SOME POINT BETWEEN
INCIDENT AND RESOLUTION YOU CAN
NEGOTIATE A NONDISCLOSURE
PROVISION AGREEMENT POLICE TO
SARS I UNDERSTAND IS THAT RIGHT.
THAT'S CORRECT OKAY YOU KNOW
WHAT POINT BETWEEN INCIDENT AND
RESOLUTION CAN YOU NEGOTIATE A
PROVISION THAT PROVIDES FOR NON
DISCLOSURE. WELL SO FOR EXAMPLE
IF THERE WAS A COURT COMPLAINT
FILED THERE WAS A MINISTER THE
COMPLAINT FILED THE DEPARTMENT
SHAREPOINT IN HOUSING- YOU
COULD- YOU COULD GET THE IF YOU
WERE. YOU KNOW IF YOU IF YOU
FOLLOW THE PROCEDURES AND ONE
THOUSAND ONE- YOU YOU CAN BE
YOU CAN BE PREVENTED ONCE YOU
FILE THE MINISTER COMPLAINED
THE COR COMPLAINT YOU CAN BE
PREVENTED I'M- FROM HAVING A-
NONDISCLOSURE PROVISION IF. IF
THERE IF THE RESOLUTION IS
HAPPENING BEFORE THAT. YOU
CAN'T RIGHT SO THAT NOBODY WAS
MY QUESTION FORTY ONE THOUSAND
ONE YEAH SO PRIOR TO FILING A
COMPLAINT YOU CAN PROVIDE FOR
NON DISCLOSURE BUT ONCE YOU
FILE THE COMPLAINT IT IS
ILLEGAL TO HAVE A RESOLUTION
INCLUDES A NONDISCLOSURE
PROVISION IS THAT. ACCURATE
RIGHT OKAY. NOW LET'S TURN TO
NON DISPARAGEMENT IT WHAT POINT
IN THE SEQUENCE OF EVENTS THAT
JUST DESCRIBED FROM INCIDENT
THROUGH RESOLUTION CAN YOU
NEGOTIATED NON DISPARAGEMENT
AGREEMENT- PROVISION TO
AGREEMENT. RIGHT SO THAT THE
BILL UNDER THIS BY IT. YEAH
UNDER UNDER THIS BILL- IF YOU
HAVE A- A SEVERANCE AGREEMENT
WHERE THERE'S NO THERE'S NO
COURT ACTION FILE THERE'S
NOTHING. PAKISTAN NOT TENDERED
INTERNALLY TO THE COMPANY YOU
CAN'T HAVE A NON DISPARAGEMENT
CLAUSES IN. IN A SEPARATION
AGREEMENT BOTH IN AGREEMENT
WHERE THE EMPLOYEE KIND OF AS A
ROUTINE MATTER OF SEPARATING IT
HANDED A SEPARATION AGREEMENT
AND FIND THAT. AND DOESN'T HAVE
THE OPPORTUNITY TO- CITY
COUNCIL AND HADN'T FILED
INTERNAL GRIEVANCE REGARDING B.
B. UNLAWFUL CONDUCT IN THE
WORKPLACE OR HAVE THEM CALL THE
COURT COMPLAINT THAT THEY CAN'T
BE BOUND BY A NON DISPARAGEMENT
CLAUSES THE PEERS AND THE- AND
YOU BRING THE- SO. FOR NON
DISCLOSURE YOU CAN NEGOTIATE
NONDISCLOSURE FTER A COMPLAINT
IS FILED BUT NON DISPARAGEMENT
YOU CANNOT AFTER A COMPLAINT IS
FILED IS THAT RIGHT. WELL AFTER
YOU KNOW AFTER A COMPLAINT
AFTER SOME AND AFTER SOME
ADMINISTRATIVE OR COURT
COMPLAINT FILED ON NON
DISCLOSURE SIDE. YOU CANNOT YOU
CANNOT- HAVE A I NINE OKAY
GALLAGHER SECTION SEMI
COMPLICIT AYE AND I RIVERS YOUR
CRITICAL RIGHT BUT I REVERSED
IT. RIGHT YEAH OKAY. AND SO IN
TERMS OF. THREADING THE NEEDLE
HERE FOR A CLIENT THEN AGAIN I
UNDERSTAND THE PUBLIC GOOD THAT
IS ATTENDED TO THIS MEASURE BUT
IN TERMS OF THREADING THE
NEEDLE- IN ADVISING A CLIENT
WITH RESPECT TO NON DISCLOSURE
AND NON DISPARAGEMENT IS THAT
BASICALLY THE STANDARD OF CARE
SO THAT YOU HAVE TO ADVISE A
CLIENT WHEN A CLIENT COMES IN
AS TO WHAT THEIR RIGHTS AND
REMEDIES ARE. EITHER BEFORE OR
AFTER THEY FILED A COMPLAINT
AND WHAT THE CONSEQUENCES ARE
IN TERMS OF NEGOTIATING EITHER
NON DISPARAGEMENT CLAUSE OR A
OR A NON DISCLOSURE COSTS. YEAH
I THINK I THINK IT IS SOMETHING
THAT YOU HAVE A DISCUSSION WITH
A CLIENT ABOUT AND IT'S USUALLY
NOT NECESSARILY THE PERSON
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT WHEN HE
COMES IN THE DOOR BUT AT SOME
POINT ONE RESOLUTION AS- IT
CONTEMPLATED THEIR- DISCUSSION.
THAT WE HAD. ABOUT THE
IMPLICATIONS OF FILING. A COURT
OR ADMINISTRATIVE COMPLAINT-
AND I MEAN THAT THAT THOSE ARE
CONVERSATIONS THAT ARE
HAPPENING NOW IN YOUR SB EIGHT
TWENTY AND HAVE BEEN FOR THE
LAST COUPLE YEARS- AND SO YOU
KNOW YOU YOU HAVE THAT
CONVERSATION ABOUT WHAT THE
IMPLICATIONS ARE FILING AN
ADMINISTRATIVE RECORD ACTION.
ON SETTLEMENT BUT YOU KNOW I
WOULD KIND OF JUST REVERT BACK
TO MY EXPERIENCE- THE LAST FEW
YEARS AND OVER THE LAST THIRTY
YEARS NEGOTIATING SEVERANCE
ENTITLEMENT AGREEMENT. AND THAT
IS THAT IT'S REALLY AGAIN IN MY
EXPERIENCE IT'S ABOUT THE
RELEASE OF CLAIMS THAT THE
VALUE THAT'S BEING PAID. BY THE
EMPLOYER. IS FOR THE IS FOR THE
RELEASE I'M NOT FOR EIGHTY
EIGHT NINETY. FIVE I I'M
PUTTING ASIDE KIND OF BUT YOU
KNOW YOU WANT TELLING ABOUT THE
AMOUNT OF SETTLEMENT ISSUE
WHICH- YOU KNOW. IS A DIFFERENT
ISSUE WHICH REALLY ISN'T
AFFECTED BY ANY OF THE BILL
THAT THAT SPOKE SPANISH BUT- IN
TERMS OF YOU KNOW NONDISCLOSURE
OF EVENTS IN THE WORKPLACE. I
DON'T I DON'T THINK THAT IS A
SIGNIFICANT COMPONENT OF THE
CONSIDERATION OF BEING PAID. HI
KAREN SO LOOK FOR THOSE ON THE
PHONE WE'RE GOING TO OPEN UP
THE PHONE LINES AGAIN FOR
SUPPORT IN OPPOSITION HERE AND.
IN JUST A MOMENT I'LL I WANT
TO. UNDER SO. THE TERM OF
STANDARD PRACTICES OF CARE THE
EMPLOYMENT LAWYER WHEN SOMEONE
COMES IN WOULD THEY FALL BELOW
THE STANDARD CARE STANDARD
PRACTICE IF THEY DON'T ADVISED
THAT CLIENT OF THE CONSEQUENCES
OF EITHER FILING A COMPLAINT OR
NOT FALLING COMPLETED AND HOW
THAT IMPACTS POTENTIAL
SETTLEMENT. YOU KNOW I DON'T
KNOW THAT I WOULD I WOULD FRAME
IT AS FALLING BELOW THE
STANDARD CARE IT'S CERTAINLY
SOMETHING THAT YOU KNOW I'D BE
HAVING A CONVERSATION WITH A
CLIENT ABOUT BUT I MEAN I COULD
PROBABLY FILL A BUCKET LIKE
THAT WITH A HUNDRED DIFFERENT
THINGS THAT WE TALKED LEVINE
ABOUT BUT- YOU KNOW ONE OF THEM
PROBABLY WOULD BE WHAT THE
IMPLICATIONS OF. PILING UP A
COURT COMPLAINT WOULD BE.
ENTITLEMENT BUT YOU KNOW AGAIN.
I THINK YOU KNOW. THE WAY THAT
ONE THOUSAND ONE STRUCTURE HAT
BEAT THEM. IF THE EMPLOYEE EVEN
AFTER FINAL COURT COMPLAINT
BOARD MINISTER. TWENTY FEEL
IMPORTANT TO KEEP THEIR OWN
IDENTITY CONFIDENTIAL. THEY CAN
REQUEST CONFIDENTIALITY UNDER
THAT UNDER THAT. THANK KNOW
SORRY BUT THIS ISN'T EVEN
ACTUALLY SEEN AS A SIGN OF GOOD
IT'S CONTAINED IN THE BILL I
JUST THINK WE'RE CREATING A
CHALLENGE TO MAKE SURE THAT
EMPLOYMENT LAWYERS UNDERSTAND
THAT THIS NEEDLE ARM IS I THINK
CHALLENGING TO BE THREADED AS
BETWEEN NON DISPARAGEMENT
NONDISCLOSURE AND AT WHAT POINT
THE LAW BECOMES OPERATIVE IS TO
WIN YOU CAN NEGOTIATED NON
DISCLOSURE WHEN YOU CAN
NEGOTIATE NON DISPARAGEMENT BUT
THAT'S NOT MY- RESPONSIBILITY
SO- THANK YOU FOR THAT-

CONSUMERS FROM FRAUD WHILE ALSO
PROVIDING MORE STABILITY TO

AGENCY TO TRANSLATE. AND PLACE
ON THEIR WEBSITES AND NOTICED A
CO SIGNERS THIS NOTICE WILL BE
TRANSLATED INTO BY THE FIVE
MOST COMMONLY SPOKEN LANGUAGES
IN CALIFORNIA AND BE PUT ON A
SINGLE WEB PAGE. THE NOTICE
MUST ONLY BE PROVIDED CO
SIGNERS WHEN THE BUSINESS KNOWS
OR HAS REASON TO KNOW THE
COSIGNER DOES NOT SPEAK
ENGLISH. THE DISCLOSURE PUTS
THE COSIGNER ON THE NOTICE THAT
THEY ARE LIABLE FOR THE
CONTRACT AND DOES NOT REQUIRE
THE BUSINESS TRANSLATE THE
ENTIRE CONTRACT. THIS NOTICE
WILL PROVIDE THE COSIGNER WITH
THE ESSENTIAL INFORMATION BUT
ALSO PROTECT THE BUSINESS BY
GIVING THEM A TOOL FOR
ENFORCEMENT TO COMBAT PLANES
FROM CO SIGNERS OF THE CONTRACT
IS. AN UNENFORCEABLE BECAUSE
THEY DID NOT UNDERSTAND THEIR
OBLIGATIONS. TODAY ON THE LINE
WE HAVE AYE DADDY CONDO KAISER
FROM THE CALIFORNIA LOW INCOME
CONSUMER COALITION AND DESIREE
NEW IN ORDERS FROM THE JUSTICE
AND DIVERSITY CENTER OF THE BAR
ASSOCIATION OF SAN FRANCISCO TO
SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THE BILL
AND ANSWER TECHNICAL QUESTIONS.

PROCEED. I AM CAN YOU HEAR ME
ALRIGHT WE CAN GO AHEAD. GREAT
GOOD AFTERNOON CHAIR AND
MEMBERS THANK YOU FOR THE
OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE
TESTIMONY IN SUPPORT. OF THIS
IMPORTANT PIECE OF LEGISLATION
MY NAME IS DANIELLE KENDO
KREIDER AND I REPRESENT THE
CALIFORNIA LOW INCOME CONSUMER
COALITION. A COALITION OF
FOURTEEN LEGAL SERVICE
PROVIDERS FROM AROUND THE STATE.
WE THINK BOTH THE AUTHOR IN THE
APARTMENT ASSOCIATION FOR THE
TIME THEY SPENT WORKING WITH
CLICK ON THIS BILL. SB SIX
THREE THREE AMEND CIVIL CODE
SIXTEEN THIRTY TWO BY REQUIRING
THAT A NOTICE BE PROVIDED TO A
NON ENGLISH SPEAKING COSIGNER.
AS THE SENATOR INDICATED IN THE
NOTICE WILL BE POSTED ON BC AS
AGENTS PUBLIC WEBSITE WHERE IT
CAN EASILY BE ACCESSED BY
BUSINESSES TO PROVIDE YOU CO
SIGNERS. CURRENTLY MORE THAN
44% OF CALIFORNIA HOUSEHOLDS
SPEAK A LANGUAGE OTHER THAN
ENGLISH. WELL EXISTING LAW
REQUIRES A CONTRACT THAT'S
NEGOTIATED IN SPANISH TAGALOG
CHINESE VIETNAMESE OR KOREAN TO
BE PROVIDED TO THE PERSON WHO
WOULD BE TO GO SHE THAT THAT
CONTRACT. THE SAME PROTECTION
IS CANCELED OUT FOR CO SIGNERS
WHEN THE BORROWER ACTS AS A
TRANSLATOR FOR THE COSIGNER.
GROCERS ARE FREQUENTLY NEEDED
IN CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS A
COMMON EXAMPLE INCLUDES COLLEGE
STUDENTS WHO REQUIRE A PARENT
TO CO SIGN ON HOUSING OR YOUNG
ADULTS WHO NEEDS MOM OR DAD TO
HELP THEM BUY THEIR FIRST CAR.
AND IN THE EVENT THAT THE
ORIGINAL PARTY TO THE
CONTRACTORS THAT ARE NOT
TRUTHFUL OR HAD NOT THE FILTER
REQUIREMENTS IT IS ESSENTIAL
THAT THE COSIGNER BE MADE AWARE
AT THE TIME THE SIGNING OF
THEIR FINANCIAL LIABILITY. THE
PURPOSE OF SB SIX THREE THREE
AND TO GIVE THE COSIGNER FAIR
NOTICE THAT THEY ARE
UNDERTAKING FINANCIAL
OBLIGATIONS AND THAT THEY
SHOULD INVESTIGATE THE TERMS OF
THEIR CONTRACT. SB SIX THREE
THREE PROTECT NON ENGLISH
SPEAKING CALIFORNIANS FROM
FRAUD AND MISREPRESENTATION.
AND IT PROTECTS BUSINESSES FROM
ENTERING AGREEMENTS WITH
PARTIES WHO CANNOT CONSENT TO
THE TERMS. LESS GIVING
BUSINESSES MORE CONTRACT
ENFORCEMENT POWER. WE LOOK
FORWARD TO CONTINUING
DISCUSSIONS WITH THE AUTHOR IN
THE APARTMENT ASSOCIATION AND
WE RESPECTFULLY ASK YOUR
IDENTITY. THANK YOU MISS KIND

CALIFORNIA APARTMENT
ASSOCIATION FIRST I HAVE TO
APOLOGIZE IT'S NOT OUR STYLE
TO. SEND TO YOU LATE
OPPOSITION- WE HAD UNDERSTOOD
OUR CONCERNS WOULD BE ADDRESSED
UNFORTUNATELY THEY WERE NOT- AS
YOU KNOW THE CURRENT CONTRACT
MUST BE PROVIDED IN ANOTHER
LANGUAGE IF THE PERSON INVOLVED
IN THE TRADE OR BUSINESS
NEGOTIATION THAT LANGUAGE.
SENATE BILL SIX THREE THREE
CHANGES THAT STANARD IN
REQUIRED AT THE SPECIFIC
DISCLOSURE IF THE PERSON
INVOLVED KNOWS OR HAS REASON TO
KNOW THAT THE PERSON WHO WILL
NOT RECEIVE THE GOODS IS NOT
PROFICIENT IN ENGLISH- ASK FOR
LEASE CONTRACT THAT IS OF
COURSE THE GUARANTOR THE
PENALTY FOR FAILING TO PROVIDE.
A DISCLOSURE IN THE RENTAL
CONTACT AS RETENTION OF THE
LEAST FOR RENTAL HOUSING THE
LANDLORD MAY NEVER SPEAK OR
MEET THE GUARANTOR AND YET
WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS
ELEVATED STANDARD OF CARE-
THEREFORE THERE'S NO OR SHOULD
HAVE KNOWN STANDARD WOULD BE
USED AGAINST THE LANDLORD THE
LANDLORD FAILED TO PROVIDE THAT
DISCLOSURE BASED MERELY ON THE
ASSUMPTION ABOUT THE
PROSPECTIVE TENANT. YOU KNOW
UNFORTUNATELY IN THIS THE
NATURE RENTAL HOUSING IS VERY
LITIGIOUS OF CURRENT PANDEMIC
WE'VE SEEN UNETHICAL PENDANT
ATTORNEYS WHO'VE UTILIZED
LEGALLY AMBIGUOUS CLAIMS
AGAINST PROPERTY OWNERS TO
STALL OBJECTIONS ORDER FOR THE
LANDLORD TO PAY THE TENANT TO
LEAVE. AND WHILE WE HAVE
ABSOLUTELY NO OBJECTION TO
PROVIDING THE DISCLOSURE WE
HAVE RESPECTFULLY REQUESTED
THAT THIS DISCLOSURE BE
INCLUDED ONLY WHEN THE PERSON
WHO ENGAGES IN A TRADE OR
BUSINESS SPECIFICALLY THE
RENTAL HOUSING PROVIDERS
NEGOTIATE PRIMARILY IN ONE OF
THESE LANGUAGES. HAVE BEEN THE
CLEAR STANDARD FOR MANY YEARS
AND WE ASK THAT IT REMAINS THAT
WAY- IN THIS SITUATION THANK
YOU VERY MUCH FOR HEARING OUR
CONCERNS. THANK YOU MISS
CARLSON- OTHERS IN OPPOSITION.

THINK I JUST VOTED FOR THE

MODERATOR. AT THIS TIME THERE
ARE NO FURTHER- IN OUR QUEUE-
PLEASE CONTINUE MISTER CHAIR
ALL RIGHT- LET'S BRING BACK THE
CHAMBER I SEE NO MICROPHONES
REYES- CEREMONY DO CARE CLOSE.
THANK YOU CHAIR AND I WANT TO
BE CLEAR THAT THIS BILL IS
ABOUT THE CLOSE SIGNER- THE
AND- IN NO WAY THIEF THE
PRIMARY SIGNER IS NEGOTIATING
IN A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE OR IN
AN LANGUAGE- EIGHT DOESN'T
CHANGE THAT THIS IS ABOUT A CO
SIGNER. IF THE LANDLORD DOES
NOT HAVE. ANY EVIDENCE THAT THE
COSIGNER DOES IS SPEAKS A
LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ENGLISH THE
THEY ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO OFFER
ANY TYPE OF DISCLOSURE AND SO I
THINK THAT THAT SHOULD JUST BE
MADE CLEAR WE WILL CONTINUE TO
WORK WITH THE OPPOSITION- TO
FURTHER CLARIFY. WILL YOU KNOW
OF THIS PARTICULAR ASPECT BUT
THIS BILL IS ABOUT CO SIGNERS
AND NOT THE PRIMARY SIGNERS.
THANK YOU SAN RAMON DOES THEIR

SENATOR MAN. LOVE CENTER MENACE
IS PRESENT. AFTER THAT WE HAVE
S. B. TWO SEVENTY BY SENATOR
ALSO AND THEN SB THREE TWENTY
ONE BY SENATOR ALSO AND I THINK
THAT COMPLETES OUR CALENDAR FOR
THE DAY. I SEE SENATOR MAN
WHO'S ENTERED THE CHAMBER.
WHENEVER YOU'RE READY CENTER
MEN WERE READY FOR YOU THANK
YOU. THANKS VERY MUCH SHARON
BURKE AND THE COMMITTEE STAFF
FOR WORKING WITH US ON SB SIX
FIFTY FOUR- THIS IS A BILL.
THAT CREATES NEW PROTECTIONS
AND EXTENDS EXISTING SAFEGUARDS
FOR CHILDREN N FAMILY COURT-
PARTICULARLY THOSE ESPECIALLY
THOSE WHO ARE TESTIFYING IN
RELATION TO CUT CITY AND- AND
VISITATIONS SPECIFICALLY THIS
BILL DOES TWO THINGS FIRST IT
GENERALLY REQUIRES. THAT FOR
CHILDREN ADDRESSING THE COURT
SAID ABOUT CUSTODY OR
VISITATION- THAT THE COURT. UP
DO NOT OPEN FOR SENATE TESTIFY
BEFORE THEIR PARENTS THE
PARTIES UNLESS IT MAKES A
DETERMINATION THAT THAT WOULD
BE IN THE CHILD'S BEST INTEREST
THAT CURRENTLY THE COURTS HAVE
DISCRETION IT. TOO I'LL HELP
ALLOW IN CAMERA TESTIMONY- BUT
MANY OF THEM DECIDE NOT TO DO
AND SO THEY HAVE TO FIND MAKE A
FINDING IT THAT'S APPROPRIATE-
AND I CAN BE VERY STRESSFUL AND
TRAUMATIC FOR CHILDREN. HAVING
TO TESTIFY IN FRONT OF THEIR
PARENTS AS TO WHICH PARENT THEY
WANT TO HAVE CUSTODY OBVIOUSLY
THAT CAN BE A DIFFICULT THING
IT CAN BE TRAUMATIZING- AND A
NUMBER OF FOLKS BELIEVE THEY
CAN CREATE LONG TERM EMOTIONAL
DISTRESS AND HARM. OFTENTIMES
FOR EXAMPLE CHILDREN WILL AGREE
TO TESTIFY IN FRONT OF A JUDGE
NOT KNOWING THAT THIS CAN
ENTAIL STATING THEIR CUSTODY
PREFERENCES IN FRONT OF THEIR
PARENTS. HI THIS CAN SPLIT FOR
FAMILIES AND I WAS JUST TALKING
TO- SOMEBODY IN THIS BODY.
ABOUT THIS AND THEY ARE
EXPRESSING TO ME THAT THIS IS
VERY TRAUMATIZING IT DOES
SPLINTER FAMILIES- AND SO I
THINK JEWELERS TESTIMONY CAN BE
VERY IMPORTANT IN THESE TYPES
OF SITUATIONS BUT- THEY SHOULD
BE- OUR EMPHASIS SHOULD BE ON
MAKING SURE THAT THEY'RE IN
SAFE ENVIRONMENTS- AND SO WHAT
THE FIRST COMPONENT THIS BILL
DOES. IS A SAID IS TO HAVE
JUDGES- IT GENERALLY REQUIRES
THE JUDGES- CREATING
ALTERNATIVE TO TESTIFYING IN
FRONT OF THEIR PARENTS- WHETHER
THAT'S IN CAMERA TESTIMONY OR
OR SOME OTHER OPTION. AND
GENERALLY ONLY ALLOWS JUDGES TO
FORCE CHILDREN TO TESTIFYING
FROM THEIR PARENTS IN THESE
MATTERS WHEN THEY DEEM THIS TO
BE IMPORTANT NECESSARY. AND
BENEFICIAL FOR THE CHILD'S
EMOTIONAL HEALTH. THE SECOND
THING THAT AS SIXTY FOUR IS THE
IT TAKES EXIST SAFETY MEASURES.
THAT ARE USED FOR CHILD CUSTODY
DETERMINATIONS AND EXTENDS AND
UNSUPERVISED VISITATIONS-
CURRENTLY JUDGES MUST CONSIDER
A HISTORY OF ABUSE. OR DRUG
ADDICTION WHEN PLACING CHILDREN
IN THE CUSTODY OF INDIVIDUALS-
AND SO IF A JUDGE DOES DECIDE
TO PLACE A CHILD IN THE CUSTODY
OF INDIVIDUALS. WITH ANY OF
THESE- TRIGGERS IN THEIR
BACKGROUNDS THE JUDGE MUST
CREATE A WRITTEN FINDING ON WHY
THAT IS THE CASE- AND THAT
ENSURES THAT RECORDS OF THESE
TERMINATIONS ARE CAPPED. THIS
CAN HELP SAVE LIVES IT HELPS-
AS FAR AS DETERMINING CUSTODY-
BUT UNFORTUNATELY RIGHT NOW THE
SAME REQUIREMENT DOES NOT APPLY
TO UNSUPERVISED VISITATIONS.
EIGHT TWO THOUSAND ELEVEN STUDY
BY THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF
JUSTICE FOUND THAT 47% OF
CONCEIVABLY LEADERS. CONTINUE
TO RECOMMEND UNSUPERVISED
VISITATIONS WITH PARENT. EVEN
WHEN THE REPORTS OF VIOLENCE IN
THAT HOME. HE'S ON SUPERVISORS.
CAN LAST DAYS AND TOO OFTEN PUT
CHILDREN IN DANGER. A TWELVE
YEAR NATIONAL STUDY SHOWS THAT
MANY CHILD HOMICIDE VICTIMS.
ARE MURDERED TRAGICALLY BY
DIVORCING OR SEPARATING PARENT
DURING COURT ORDERED. AND
SUPERVISED VISITATIONS WITH
THAT PARENT DESPITE THE FACTS
THE COURTS WERE OFTEN NOTIFIED
OF A HISTORY OF ABUSE. AND
EVIDENCE OF THREATS TO HARM
THOSE CHILDREN. SB SIX FIFTY
FOUR SIMPLY EXTENDS THE SAME OR
SAFETY REQUIREMENTS CURRENTLY
APPLY TO CHILD CUSTODY TO
UNSUPERVISED VISITATION- THIS
MINOR- BUT CRUCIAL CHANGE WILL
SAVE THE LIVES OF CHILDREN- SO
I RESPECTFULLY ASK YOUR I VOTE
AND I HAVE WITH ME TODAY TO
TESTIFY- KIM ROBINSON A FAMILY
LAW ATTORNEY. AND TRACY FELL
OVER THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR FOR
YELLOW COUNTY CASF. THANK YOU
CENTER MEN MISS ROBINSON ARE
YOU ON THE PHONE. MYSTERONS
ENDED MISS ROBINSON IS NOT
IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE AS MISS
FATHER AVAILABLE. YES I'M HERE
UP IN THAT IS MISS FABRE MISS
ROBINSON. I'M SORRY- THIS IS
TRACY FATHER ALL RIGHT THIS
FATHER IF YOU GO AHEAD TWO
MINUTES EACH PLEASE. GOOD
EVENING CHAIRMAN AMERICANS
SENATE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE
MEMBERS MY NAME IS TRACY
CALLER. AND I'M A LICENSED
CLINICAL SOCIAL WORKER AND
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF YOLO
COUNTY CASA AN ORGANIZATION
THAT ADVOCATES FOR THE BEST
INTERESTS OF ABUSE AND NEGLECT
OF CHILDREN. HEY WE UNDERSTAND
THE HEALTHY DEVELOPMENT OF
BRAINS AND BODIES OF CHILDREN
BETTER THAN EVER BEFORE WE KNOW
THAT TRAUMATIC STRESS IN EARLY
CHILDHOOD. AS A RESULT OF
ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES
OR ACES. HAS A PROFOUNDLY
NEGATIVE IMPACT ON THE HEALTH
AND WELL BEING OF CHILDREN AND
THROUGHOUT THEIR LIFE COURSE.
THE GROUND BREAKING ACES STUDY
PUBLISHED IN NINETEEN NINETY
EIGHT BY DOCTORS AND PALLADIA
HI THERE PERMANENTLY AND ROBERT
HONDA OF THE PVC AND SUBSEQUENT
RESEARCH AROUND TRAUMATIC
STRESS IN CHILDREN. HAVE
DRAMATICALLY HIGHLIGHTED THE
IMPORTANCE OF REDUCING THE
EXPOSURE AND DOSE OF TRAUMATIC
STRESS CHILDREN EXPERIENCE. F.
B. FIFTY FOUR WILL ENSURE THE
COURT TAKE THIS KNOWLEDGE OF
THE NEGATIVE IMPACT OF
TRAUMATIC STRESS THE CHILDREN
INTO ACCOUNT WHEN TAKING THEIR
TESTIMONY IN FAMILY COURT. OR
WHEN MAKING DECISIONS ABOUT
UNSUPERVISED VISITATION IN
CASES WHERE EVIDENCE OF THE
EXTENT. ENSURING THAT CHILDREN
ARE NOT JUST PHYSICALLY BUT
ALSO EMOTIONALLY SAFE DURING
COURT PROCEEDINGS AND THE
SEPARATION OF THEIR PARENTS. IS
CRITICALLY IMPORTANT TO THEIR
IMMEDIATE AND LONG TERM WELL
BEING. KAFER ADVOCATES WHOSE
COMPANY CHILDREN TO COURT HAVE
A UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE ON THE
TOXIC STRESS THAT CHILDREN
EXPERIENCE WHEN APPEARING IN
COURT. EVEN WHEN SPEAKING UP
FOR THEIR NEEDS. IF IT MAY BE
PERCEIVED AS AGAINST THE WISHES
OR DESIRES OF THE- YES CHILDREN
ARE FREQUENTLY VERY WILLING TO
BE OPEN AND HONEST. ABOUT HOW
THEY FEEL OR WHAT THEY WANT
WHERE THEY FEEL SAFE. IT IS
TIME FOR THE ADULTS IN THE ROOM
TO CREATE THE RIGHT CONDITIONS
FOR THE CHILD RATHER THAN
EXPECT THE CHILD TO ADAPT TO
THE CONDITIONS. SET BY THE
ADULTS IN THE ROOM IT IS TIME
pTHOSE WHO WOULD ABUSE THEM
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND
ATTENTION THANK YOU MISS FABRE
DISMISS ROBINSON ON THE PHONE.
YES I AM CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW-
WE CAN GO AHEAD MISS ROBINSON.
RIGHT THANK YOU I CHAIR ON
BURKE AND SENATORS I AM A
FAMILY LAW ATTORNEY WITH OVER
TWENTY FIVE YEARS OF
EXPERIENCE. AND I HAVE MORE
THAN SYDNEY LEAVE MORE THAN MY
FAIR SHARE OF HIGH CONFLICT
FAMILY LAW CASES THAT INVOLVE.
ISSUES OF CHILD CUSTODY WITH
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND CHILD
ABUSE ALLEGATIONS- THIS BILL
WOULD DO TWO IMPORTANT THINGS
THE FIRST IS IT WOULD AMEND THE
FAMILY CODE SECTION THREE ZERO
ONE ONE. TO REQUIRE THAT COURTS
WHO ARE ALLOWING UNSUPERVISED
CONTACT BETWEEN A CHILD AND A
PARENT WITH A HISTORY OF ABUSE.
THE COURT HAS TO FIRST ISSUE
WRITTEN FINDINGS AS TO HOW SUCH
AN ORDER IS IN THE CHILD'S BEST
INTEREST HE AND- HELLO IT IS
NOT DETRIMENTAL TO THE CHILD'S
HEALTH SAFETY AND WELFARE. THAT
CURRENT STATUTES OF FAMILY CODE
SECTION THREE ZERO ONE ONE
ALREADY REQUIRES COURTS TO MAKE
THESE KINDS OF WRITTEN FINDINGS
WHEN IT ISSUES ITS ORDERS FOR
CUSTODY. HEDGE LEGAL AND
PHYSICAL CUSTODY OF CHILDREN
BUT SURPRISINGLY THIS FILE THE
STATUTE IS SILENT ON THE ISSUE
OF UNSUPERVISED VISITS IN THE
CONTEXT OF- DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
OR ABUSE SITUATIONS- SECONDLY.
THE BILL DOES- CREATE A FURTHER
PROTECTION FOR THOSE FEW
CHILDREN WH DO. PROVIDE
TESTIMONY TO THE COURT FOR ARE
INTERVIEWED BY THE COURT- IN
THE PREFERENCE WOULD BE FOR
CHILDREN TO BE INTERVIEWED IN
CHAMBERS WITH THE COURT
REPORTER PRESENT. OUTSIDE THE
PRESENCE OF THEIR PARENTS-
UNLESS THE COURT MAKES WRITTEN
pTHE CHILD'S BEST INTEREST TO
HAVE. THE CHILD'S PARENTS
PRESENT DURING THE TESTIMONY-
OVER IN MY MANY YEARS OF FAMILY
LAW CASES. CHILDREN DO NOT TELL
IT IS A SMALL MINORITY OF CASES
WHERE CHILDREN ARE BROUGHT IN
AND IN SOME INSTANCES IT IS
BANNED BY SEWER SPONTANEOUS
QUESTS FROM THE- FROM THE JUDGE
HIM OR HERSELF ONE THANK YOU.

CHILD INVOLVED. AND BEING ASKED
TO DECLARE IN FRONT OF THEM
WHERE THEY WISH TO LIVE. BUT SO
DESTABILIZING AND SO TRAUMATIC
JUST AS WE DEAL WITH THIS ISSUE
LAST WEEK ON THOSE. INDIVIDUALS
WHO MIGHT BE- SUBJECTED TO A
SEXUAL VIOLENCE THAT THERE ARE
CARVE OUTS THAT ARE ESSENTIAL
FOR THE WELL BEING OF THE
INDIVIDUAL BUT ANOTHER LEGAL
PROTECTIONS IN PLACE. FOR THOSE
WHO ARE ACCUSED TO DEFEND
THEMSELVES AND- AND- BE
VINDICATED NECESSARY IN THE
PROCESS. BUT I WANT TO COMMEND
THE AUTHOR I THINK THIS IS A
STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION- IN
WHEN I WAS IN WHEN I WAS YOUNG

WAS IN A- NOT TOO DISSIMILAR
SITUATION. AND I THINK WHAT
HE'S DOING IS THE RIGHT STEP

PROVISIONS THAT AT THE TWO
SEVENTY THAT WOULD ESTABLISH
CIVIL PENALTIES FOR ERRORS-
FIVE EMPLOYERS WHO ARE
ATTEMPTING TO REPORT GOOD FAITH
THE BOTTOM LINE AND WE DON'T

LAW. THE MET THE ENDEAVOR- THEN
THE THINK THE OLDER STANDARD TO
FIGHT DUBBER THIS IS FOR SURE
ALL SORTS OF IN THAT AND BODY
THAT THEY- UNDER THE BILL DATA
ERRORS ARE VIOLATION OF THE LAW
AND WE WOULD ONLY DELAY BECAUSE
DATA ERRORS TIMES IN THE YEAR

DOUBLED THE BARGAINING UNITS
ACROSS MULTIPLE UNION YOU CAN
BE REPORT MONTHLY THERE COULD
LITERALLY BE. THOUSANDS OF

COULD BE AN ACCURATE. WHAT THE
WHAT THEY AS WE CAN ALL. HAVE
THAT HAPPEN THREE TIMES ZERO WE

CHAIR I GETTING FRIENDLY
QUESTION FOR THE FRIENDLY.
AUTHOR PAGE SIX OF THE ANALYSIS
IT SAYS. THAT THIS MEASURE WAS
VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL TO THE BILL
TWELVE. FIFTY SEVEN PASSED BY
BOTH HOUSES THE LEGISLATURE. BY
WIDE MARGINS AND WHAT IT SAYS
IS NO OPPOSITION THERE'S ONE
PERSON WHO'S OPPOSITION
MATTERED BECAUSE THE VETO THIS.
INDICATING THAT OF FOLKS WHO
HAVE A DUTY TO CREATE INJURY
PREVENTION PLAN- AND THAT THE
INVESTIGATION BY LETTER WOULD
PROCEDURE WAS TOO BURDENSOME.
AND THAT FOR HOMEOWNERS AND
RENTERS HAS BEEN WORKABLE AND
RAISES SIGNIFICANT POLICY
CONCERNS. I'M SURE I'M JUST
TRYING FOR JUST FR THE RECORD
TO GET SOME CLARIFICATION IF I
COULD ASK THE- AUTHOR FOR
QUESTION TO SEE. IF YOU KNOW
LOOK IT'S OUR- IT'S OUR ABILITY
IF WE WANT TO KEEP SENDING
STUFF DOWN I SENT THE
CONTRACEPTIVE EQUITY ACT ACT
DOWN. THE GOVERNOR FIVE TIMES
FORGOT. IT SIGNED I'M NOT
SUGGESTING THAT. OUR THE
LEGISLATURE VERSION OF THE
POWER OF THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH
SHOULD BE QUESTIONED I'M JUST
QUESTIONING WHETHER THERE'S
BEEN ANY DISCUSSION. THANK YOU.
THANK YOU SENATOR ALSO. YES
MISTER CHAIR YES WE ARE AND IN
CONVERSATIONS WITH THE
ADMINISTRATION. WE BELIEVE THAT
ONE WE HAVE TO CONTINUE UNTIL
WE CHANGE THIS LAW FOR THE
BENEFIT OF THOSE UP PRIMARILY
WOMEN. WE ALSO MADE SOME
CHANGES HERE THAT WE HOPE
ADDRESSES THE- THE ISSUE
PARTICULARLY OVER THE PRIVACY
AND HOW THE AN INVESTIGATION
COULD BE. CONDUCTED WE HAVE WE
BELIEVE THAT- AND- THAT WOULD
AVOID UNWARRANTED INVASION OF
PERSONAL PRIVACY- SO WE BELIEVE
THAT WE- ADDRESS SOME OF IT-
THERE MAY BE OTHER THINGS THAT
ARE STILL ON THE
ADMINISTRATION'S MIND BUT-
WE'RE GONNA KEEP ON. OF MAKING
THE CASE BECAUSE THIS IS
IMPORTANT TO WOMEN THIS IS
IMPORTANT TO I THINK AS YOU
HEARD THE VOICES OF EMPLOYERS
HOUSEHOLD EMPLOYERS WHO WANT TO
DO THE RIGHT THING. WHO KNOW
THAT THEY CAN DO THE RIGHT
THING AND THEY WANT HELP IN
DOING THE RIGHT THING SO THE
COMBIATION OF ALL THOSE IS
