BILLS WE HAVE THE PRO TEM CENTER
ATKINS WITH THIS APPROACH HIM
YOU HAVE ONE BILL BEFORE US
TODAY SENATE BILL THIRTEEN
SEVENTY FIVE. PLEASE PROCEED
WHEN YOU'RE READY. THANK YOU MR
PRESIDENT AND COLLEAGUES I
APPRECIATE YOUR TIME THIS
MORNING AS I PERCENT SB THIRTEEN
SEVENTY FIVE. AND TO START I
WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE CHAIRMAN
THE COMMITTEE STAFF FOR THEIR
WORK ON THIS BILL I READ THE
ANALYSIS WITH GREAT INTEREST.
AND I SO APPRECIATE YOUR
APPROACH AND YOUR SUGGESTIONS.
SHOULD SB THIRTEEN SEVENTY FIVE
ADVANCE TODAY I WILL CONTINUE TO
WORK WITH THE COMMITTEE AND ALL
THE STAKEHOLDERS ON THE POLICY
CONSIDERATION MENTIONED.
SPECIFICALLY ON PAGE TEN OF THE
ANALYSIS RELATING TO REDUCING.
ABORTION TRAINING BARRIERS AND
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE TRANSITION
TO PRACTICE. IF YOU ASK ME
THIRTY YEARS AGO WHEN I WAS
MANAGING A COMMUNITY CLINIC-
SERVICES AT A WOMEN'S HEALTH
CENTER. IF I'D STILL BE TALKING
ABOUT DEFENDING ROE VERSUS WADE
AND FIGHTING FOR ABORTION ACCESS
IN TWENTY TWENTY TWO. I WOULD
HAVE SAID I CERTAINLY HOPE NOT.
BUT HERE WE ARE. IN STATE HOUSES
IN COURTHOUSES ACROSS THE
COUNTRY ALL THEWAY TO THE
SUPREME COURT ARE REPRODUCTIVE
RIGHTS ARE BEING STOLEN FROM US.
ONCE AGAIN WOMEN ARE BEING
PUSHED TO EXTREME MEASURES TO
ACCESS ABORTION CARE. AND ONCE
AGAIN THEY FACE HAVING TO PUT
THEIR BODIES IN DANGER. AND
THAT'S WHY WE FIND OURSELVES YET
AGAIN IN A POSITION OF DEFENSE.
NO I LEARNED A LONG TIME AGO ON
THE BASKETBALL COURT THE BEST
DEFENSE IS A GOOD OFFENSE AND
THAT'S WHAT THIS BILL IS ABOUT.
BY GIVING MORE TRAINED AND
QUALIFIED NURSE PRACTITIONERS
THE ABILITY TO PROVIDE ABORTIONS
WITHOUT THE SUPERVISION OF A
DOCTOR. SB THIRTEEN SEVENTY FIVE
IS A PROACTIVE STEP TO FURTHER
INCREASE ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE
QUALITY REPRODUCTIVE CARE IN
CALIFORNIA. OUR STATE IS FACING
A SERIOUS SHORTAGE OF PRIMARY
CARE CLINICIANS. ESPECIALLY IN
THE LATINO BLACK AND NATIVE
AMERICAN COMMUNITIES A PROBLEM
THAT'S EXPECTED TO GET EVEN MORE
DIRE OVER THE NEXT TEN YEARS.
CURRENTLY OVER 40% OF COUNTIES
IN CALIFORNIA DON'T EVEN HAVE
CLINICS OR PROVIDERS THAT
PROVIDE ABORTION. THOSE TWO
FACTORS COMBINED ME THAT FAR TOO
MANY PREGNANT PEOPLE WHO MAY
NEED TO CONSIDER ABORTION AS AN
OPTION CAN I DO SO. SB THIRTEEN
SEVENTY FIVE WOULD OFFER THAT
OPTION TO MORE WOMEN AND
FAMILIES. CALIFORNIA HAS LONG
BEEN A LEADER IN REPRODUCTIVE
RIGHTS. BUT THE PRACTICAL NEED
TO ENSURE REAL ACCESS IS FAR
FROM DONE. ONE EARLY STEP I TOOK
WAS OFFERING AB ONE FIFTY FOUR
IN TWENTY THIRTEEN TO EXPAND THE
TYPES OF HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS
WHO CAN PERFORM FIRST TERM
ABORTIONS WITH THE SUPERVISION
OF A DOCTOR TO INCLUDE NURSE
PRACTITIONERS. IN SEVEN YEARS
LATER THE LEGISLATURE PASSED AB
EIGHT NINETY AUTHORED BY
ASSEMBLYMEMBER WOOD AND IT
CREATED OPPORTUNITIES FOR
QUALIFYING NURSE PRACTITIONERS
THE CARE FOR PATIENTS WITHOUT
THE SUPERVISION OF A DOCTOR. AND
NOW WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THOSE
LAWS CAN WORK TOGETHER IN
UNISON. SB THIRTEEN SEVENTY FIVE
WOULD MAKE IT CLEAR THAT NURSE
PRACTITIONERS WHO PRACTICE
INDEPENDENTLY CAN ALSO PROVIDE
FIRST TERM ABORTIONS WITHOUT A
PHYSICIAN'S SUPERVISION. THE
BILL ALSO CLARIFIED THAT AMONG
OTHER CRITERIA NURSE
PRACTITIONERS NEED THREE YEARS
OF EXPERIENCE UNDER A PHYSICIAN
IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO PRACTICE
INDEPENDENTLY. NURSE
PRACTITIONERS PLAY A CRITICAL
ROLE IN PROVIDING REPRODUCTIVE
CARE. ALLOWING EXPERIENCED PART
NURSE PRACTITIONERS TO UTILIZE
THEIR FULL TRAINING AND
EDUCATION WILL EXPAND THE NUMBER
OF QUALIFIED REPRODUCTIVE CARE
PRACTITIONERS. PARTICULARLY IN
AREAS LACKING ACCESS TO CARE. SB
THIRTEEN SEVENTY FIVE BILLS OFF
OF THE SUCCESS OF THESE TWO
PRIOR LEGISLATION ON BILLS TO
FURTHER STRENGTHEN AND EXPAND
ACCESS TO REPRODUCTIVE CARE
WHILE ALSO LIFTING UP A
WORKFORCE OF SKILLED NURSE
PRACTITIONERS AND GIVING THEM
MORE OPPORTUNITIES TO CARE FOR
THEIR PATIENTS. WHILE TIME SEEMS
TO BE MOVING BACKWARDS I THINK
IN MANY PLACES ACROSS THE NATION
THIS BILL WILL HELP CALIFORNIA
CONTINUE MOVING FORWARD- TO
TESTIFY MISTER CHAIRMAN. IN
SUPPORT WE HAVE CHRISTY WASTE ON

SOMEHOW FOR THE CALIFORNIA
ASSOCIATION FOR NURSE
PRACTITIONERS ARE WE ARE VERY
GRATEFUL FOR THE PROGRAM'S
LEADERSHIP ON THIS ISSUE AND
THRILLED TO BE HERE IN SUPPORT
AND AS THE SPONSOR. I WANT TO
GIVE THE REST OF MY TIME TO ONE
OF OUR NURSE PRACTITIONERS TO BE
BOMBARDED WHO WILL SPEAK TO HER
EXPERIENCE IN MORE DETAIL AS A
NURSE PRACTITIONER WORKING I'M
IN THE REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH AND
ABORTION. THANK YOU THANK YOU
PLEASE PROCEED. MR CHAIRMAN
MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE FIRST
I'D LIKE TO THANK YOU FOR TAKING
THE TIME TO HEAR AND DISCUSS
THIS IMPORTANT BILL AND
REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH ISSUE TODAY.
I'D ALSO LIKE TO THANK THE
PROTON FOR HER LEADERSHIP AND
COMMITMENT TO EXPANDING ACCESS
TO ABORTION SERVICES. MY NAME IS
DEBBIE BAMBERGER I'M A WOMEN'S
HEALTH NURSE PRACTITIONER AT
PLANNED PARENTHOOD IN EAST
OAKLAND AND A CALIFORNIA
ASSOCIATION FOR NURSE
PRACTITIONERS MEMBER. I'M ALSO
AN ADVISORY BOARD MEMBER FOR
TEACH TRAINING AND EARLY
ABORTION FOR COMPREHENSIVE
HEALTH CARE. I'VE BEEN A
PRACTICING NURSE PRACTITIONER
FOR TWENTY EIGHT YEARS I EARNED
A MASTER OF SCIENCE IN NURSING
AS WELL AS A DOCTORATE OF
NURSING PRACTICE FROM THE
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN
FRANCISCO. IN MY WORK AT PLANNED
PARENTHOOD I PROVIDE FAMILY
PLANNING GYNECOLOGY AND ABORTION
SERVICES BOTH MEDICATION AND
ASPIRATION OR SURGICAL. I WAS
THE FIRST NURSE PRACTITIONER IN
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA WHO WAS
TRAINED TO DO ASPIRATION
ABORTION WHEN SENATOR ATKINS
PREVIOUS BILL AB ONE FIFTY FOUR
WAS MADE LAW ALLOWING SUPERVISED
AND PEAS PHYSICIAN ASSISTANTS
AND NURSE MIDWIVES. TO PROVIDE
ABORTION SERVICES TO OUR
PATIENTS. AT MY CLINIC WE SERVE
A DIVERSE URBAN POPULATION WITH
PATIENTS COMING FROM ALL
SURROUNDING AREAS TO RECEIVE
CRITICALLY NEEDED REPRODUCTIVE
CARE. CALIFORNIA ALREADY HAS A
SHORTAGE OF ABORTION PROVIDERS
OVER 40% OF COUNTIES IN
CALIFORNIA DON'T EVEN HAVE A
SINGLE CLINIC THAT PROVIDES
ABORTION. AND BECAUSEOF THE
ATTACKS ON REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS
AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL AND IN
OTHER STATES WE ARE ALREADY
SEEING PATIENTS FROM TEXAS.
TRAVELING HALFWAY ACROSS THE
COUNTRY TO GET AN ABORTION
PROCEDURE THAT TAKES ABOUT FIVE
MINUTES. SB THIRTEEN SEVENTY
FIVE WOULD INCREASE ACCESS TO
AFFORDABLE HIGH QUALITY ABORTION
AND REPRODUCTIVE CARE BY
CONTINUING THE INTENT OF TWO
PREVIOUS BILLS. AB ONE FIFTY
FOUR AND AB EIGHT NINETY BECAUSE
AB EIGHT NINETY GAVE CALIFORNIA
AND P. IS THE ABILITY TO
PRACTICE WITHOUT A PHYSICIAN'S
SUPERVISION. SB THIRTEEN SEVENTY
FIVE WOULD BRING THE STATUTE
ALLOWING MPS TO PROVIDE FIRST
TRIMESTER ABORTION IN LINE WITH
ALL THE OTHER HEALTH CARE
SERVICES AND PEAS CAN OFFER. THE
INTENT OF SENATOR ATKINS
PREVIOUS BILL AB ONE FIFTY FOUR
WAS TO INCREASE ACCESS TO
ABORTION CARE BY EXPANDING THE
TYPES OF PROVIDERS WHO PERFORM
ABORTIONS. WHILE THERE ARE MANY
CALIFORNIA AND PEACE WHO ARE
WILLING AND INTERESTED IN BEING
TRAINED TO PROVIDE THE SERVICES.
AND PEAS ARE STRUGGLING TO FIND
PROVIDERS WHO WILL TRAIN THEM AS
MANY OF THE TRAINING PROCEDURES
ARE GIVEN TO PHYSICIAN RESIDENTS
RATHER THAN OTHER PROVIDERS.
THERE IS A PARTICULAR DEARTH OF
TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES IN AREAS
LIKE FRESNO BAKERSFIELD AND
MERCED. SB THIRTEEN SEVENTY FIVE
WOULD NOT ONLY INCREASE ACCESS
TO THESE SERVICES BUT WOULD GROW
THE PROVIDER POOL SINCE
EXPERIENCED MPS COULD TRAIN
OTHER MPS ON ABORTION
PROCEDURES. THERE IS NO REASON
THAT ABORTION SHOULD BE TREATED
DIFFERENTLY FROM OTHER
PROCEDURES AND PEAS PROVIDE.
EVEN BEFORE AB EIGHT NINETY I
WAS PROVIDING ABORTION CARE AND
SERVING PATIENTS WHEN MY
SUPERVISING PHYSICIAN WAS NOT
PHYSICALLY PRESENT. OFTEN HOURS
AWAY I KNOW MY LIMITATIONS I
KNOW WHEN TO CONSULT OTHER
PROVIDERS AND I KNOW WHEN TO
CALL FOR HELP. SB THIRTEEN
SEVENTY FIVE WILL ALLOW ME TO
CONTINUE TO PROVIDE ABORTION
SERVICES WITHOUT THE UNNECESSARY
STANDARDIZED PROCEDURES THAT
LIMIT THE NUMBERS OF MPS WHO CAN
PRACTICE. I RECENTLY HAD A
PATIENT WHO IS IN URGENT NEED OF
AN ASPIRATION PROCEDURE THIS WAS
A NONVIABLE PREGNANCY THAT
RESULTED IN A MISCARRIAGE THE
PATIENT WAS FROM HAYWARD AND HOW
TO TRAVEL TO MY CLINIC IN EAST
OAKLAND IN ORDER TO GET THE CARE
SHE NEEDED. IF I HADN'T BEEN
AVAILABLE SHE WOULD HAVE HAD TO
GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM
POTENTIALLY WAITING MANY HOURS
FOR CARE DURING A SCARY AND
VULNERABLE TO HI. AND THIS PLACE
IN URBAN AREA OF CALIFORNIA
IMAGINE PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN ONE
OF THE COUNTIES THAT DON'T HAVE
ANY ABORTION PROVIDERS. SB
THIRTEEN SEVENTY FIVE IS ABOUT
GETTING MORE PEOPLE IN FAMILIES
THE CARE THEY NEED I'VE SEEN
FIRST HAND THE GROWING NEED FOR
MORE PROVIDERS OF ABORTION
SERVICES AND ALL OTHER HEALTH
CARE. SERVICES PASSING SB
THIRTEEN SEVENTY FIVE WILL ALLOW
HIGHLY TRAINED AND QUALIFIED
NURSE PRACTITIONERS TO ALLEVIATE
THE HEAVY WORKLOAD THAT IS
CARRIED BY ALL HEALTH CARE
PROVIDERS. AND THAT IS
DETRIMENTAL TO PATIENT CARE I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR AYE
VOTE ON THIS IMPORTANT BILL

THANK YOU. MISTER CHAIR I WANNA
ABOUT THE PROGRAM FOR BRINGING
THIS BILL FORWARD- WE OBVIOUSLY
OF GOVERN STATE AFFAIRS BUT IT'S
- HARD NOT TO SEE WHAT'S
HAPPENING AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL.
WITH OUR FEDERAL COURTS
INCLUDING THE SUPREME COURT
BEING INCREASINGLY OVERTAKEN BY
RADICAL IDEOLOGUES WHO HAVE NO
RESPECT FOR THE RULE OF LAW. S.
N. N. OR FOUR FREEDOMS AND IT
LOOKS UNLIKELY THAT ROE V. WADE
I WILL MAKE IT TO THE FIFTIETH
BIRTHDAY ON JANUARY TWENTY
SECOND NEXT YEAR- REPRODUCTIVE
FREEDOMS ARE UNDER ATTACK ACROSS
THIS COUNTRY IN OUR COURTS. IN
OUR SUPREME COURT AND SO ONCE
AGAIN I THINK CALIFORNIA IS
GOING TO HAVE TO BE IN A
POSITION TO LEAD SO I THINK THIS
BILL IS IMPORTANT I RECOGNIZE
SOME OF THE CONCERNS HAVE BEEN
RAISED BY THE OPPOSITION BUT I
THINK IT'S CRITICAL THAT WE
PREPARE IN THE STATE FOR WHAT
WILL LIKELY BE. A FLOOD OF WOMEN
SEEKING REPRODUCTIVE SERVICES IN
OUR STATE AND SO- I I'M GOING TO
VOTE I AND I WOULD RESPECTFULLY
ASK THE CO AUTHOR AT THE
APPROPRIATE TIME. THANK YOU
SENATOR MAN CENTER PAM. I THANK
YOU- AND I WANT TO THANK OUR PRO
TEMP FOR HER- ONGOING LEADERSHIP
AND ENSURING ACCESS TO
REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH AND
REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS AND
APPRECIATE HER LEADERSHIP ON
THIS ISSUE- I WOULD NOTE THAT I
HOPE THAT THE ASSET THAT YOU
CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THE SAMPLE
AMERICAN COLLEGE OF- SURGEONS
GYNECOLOGISTS THE-
MEDICALIZATION THAT SUPPORTS
REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOMS- AND OTHER-THAN THE MEDICAL COMMUNITY TO
DRESS I THINK SOME CONCERNS
ABOUT- THE- I GUESS. IN TERMS
OF- TRAINING AND SUPERVISION- I
CERTAINLY SUPPORT VERY STRONGLY
SUPPORT PROVISIONS IN THIS BILL-
REGARDING- EXPAND THE ACCESS TO-
FOR NURSE PRACTITIONERS PERFORM-
THE ASPIRATION PROCEDURES AS AS
OUTLINED- BUT ALSO BUT DO HAVE
SOME CONCERNS ABOUT TRIED. AS
NURSE PRACTITIONERS HAVE. MOVING
TOWARD IN A PRACTICE THAT WE
HAVE SOME EQUIVALENCE WITH OTHER
HEALTH PROFESSIONALS WHO HAVE
INDEPENDENT PRACTICE FOR EXAMPLE
TO AMOUNT OF CME EACH OF US HAVE
TO TAKE IT'S NOT EQUIVALENT TO
THAT NURSE PRACTITIONERS ARE
REQUIRED THE LAST- AND IN TERMS
IN TERMS OF THE SCOPE OF THE
EXPERIENCE DURING CLINICAL TIME.
TO BE SURE THAT CORRESPONDS IN
THAT TRANSITION TO PRACTICE THAT
CORRESPONDS TO WHAT THEY'LL BE
DOING IN PRACTICE- THAT THERE'S
NOT SCRIPT AND SEE THEIR- WHICH-
SO. YOUR LEADERSHIP CERTAINLY
WHAT SUPPORT THIS BILL SO YOU
CAN WORK ON THESE ISSUES- BUT

CALIFORNIA HAS SOME OF THE MOST
STRINGENT- CRITERIA FOR
TRAINING. OF PRACTITIONERS
FRANKLY AT EVERY LEVEL OF
PRACTICING CLINICIANS SO I FEEL
THERE ARE WAYS THAT WE CAN BUILD
UPON THIS AND HOPEFULLY COME TO
SOME AGREEMENT. SO I'LL CONTINUE
TO WORK IN GOOD FAITH WITH
PHYSICIANS AND ANY OTHER
INTERESTED STAKEHOLDERS. AND TO
YOUR POINT WITH AN INCREASING
PROVIDER SHORTAGE WHICH HAS ONLY
BEEN EXACERBATED OVER THE LAST
THREE DECADES. NOT JUST AN
ABORTION CARE BUT I WOULD SAY IN
PRIMARY CARE AS WELL WE WANT TO
STRENGTHENED CALIFORNIA'S
POSITION AS A LEADER OUR
REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM. AND I DO
THINK WE NEED TO ACT SWIFTLY AND
UTILIZE ALL THE TOOLS IN OUR
TOOLBOX THAT IS WHY I'M HERE

TELECONFERENCE LINE TO PLEASE
MUTE YOUR- BONES. THERE JONES
SENATE BILL NINE ONE NINE PLEASE
PROCEED IN READING THANK YOU
MISTER CHAIR SENATE BILL NINE
ONE NINE WOULD HELP COMBAT
CATHOLIC CONVERTER THEFTS WITH A
THREE PRONGED APPROACH. FIRST
THIS BILL REQUIRES NEW AND USED
MOTOR VEHICLE DEALERS TO
PERMANENTLY MARK THE VEHICLE
IDENTIFICATION NUMBER OR THE VAN
ON A CALORIE CONVERTER OF ANY
VEHICLE BEFORE THEY SELL IT THIS
REQUIREMENT WILL CREEK RECREATE
WILL CREATE A WAY TO IDENTIFY A
CALCULATOR IF IT IS ILLEGALLY
REMOVED FROM THE CAR. SECOND
THIS BILL ALLOWS METAL RECYCLERS
TO BUY CATALYTIC CONVERTERS ONLY
IF THEY HAVE A CLEARLY VISIBLE
AND ON TAMPERED VAN ON THEM.
RECYCLERS WOULD ALSO BE REQUIRED
TO KEEP DETAILED RECORDS OF ALL
SALES FROM BOTH BUSINESSES AND
INDIVIDUALS AND MAKE THOSE
RECORDS ACCESSIBLE TO LAW
ENFORCEMENT. THIRD THIS BILL
ADDS FINES TO THE CURRENT
PENALTIES FOR CALIBER THEFTS AND
MAKES IT EASIER TO ESTABLISH
PROBABLE CAUSE FOR ARREST AND
PROSECUTION. I WANT TO SHOW THE
COMMITTEE WHERE CAROL CONVERTER
LOOKS LIKE- BUT I FORGOT TO
BRING IT SO I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT
- CALIFORNIA IS THE NUMBER ONE
IN THE NATION FOR KELLY
CONVERTER THEFTS WITH EIGHTEEN
THOUSAND DEATHS JUST LAST YEAR.
THAT'S A 13100% INCREASE SINCE
TWO THOUSAND NINETEEN. WEALTHY
YOU CAN STILL CALIBURN UNDER TWO
MINUTES AND MAKE A QUICK TWO
HUNDRED FIFTY DOLLARS. THEFT
VICTIMS OF FACE UP TO FOUR
THOUSAND DOLLARS TO REPLACE THE
CONVERTER. AND A LOSS OF THE
VEHICLE WHILE THERE'S GETS
FIXED. THE PROBLEM HAS ONLY
GOTTEN WORSE OVER THE PAST FEW
YEARS AND DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE
SLOWING DOWN. THAT'S MAKING OUR
ACTION TODAY ON THE MAJOR OF THE
UP MOST IMPORTANCE. MY BILL
INCORPORATES A COMPREHENSIVE
STRATEGY TO TACKLE CATALYTIC
CONVERTER THEFTS FROM ALL
ANGLES. I UNDERSTAND THAT SOME
MAY HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT
ADDITIONAL MANDATES ON
BUSINESSES AND I'M COMMITTED TO
WORKING WITH THE STAKEHOLDERS.
TO FIND A SOLUTION ADDRESSES
THEIR CONCERNS AND TO PROTECT
THE PUBLIC FROM CALICUT BERNARD
THEFTS. THANK YOU MR THANK YOU
OF CENTER JONES I UNDERSTAND
THAT YOU HAVE- TWO WITNESSES ON
THE LINE TESTIFYING IN SUPPORT
YES SIR A DETECTIVE LEONARD WITH
THE CHULA VISTA POLICE
DEPARTMENT AND ALISON ADDY IF I
PRONOUNCE THAT LAST NAME
CORRECTLY. WITH THE PERSONAL
INSURANCE FEDERATION OF
CALIFORNIA. IF YOU WERE ON THE
LINE PLEASE PLEASE PROCEED. THIS
IS DETECTIVE LEONARD. PLEASE
PROCEED SIR. THANK YOU MR
CHAIRMAN MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE MY NAME IS SAMSON
LEONARD AND I'M A DETECTIVE WITH
THE TO THE BEST A POLICE
DEPARTMENT. CATALYTIC CONVERTERS
OR CATS ARE THE PERFECT TARGET
FOR THIEVES. VALUABLE SIMPLE TO
STILL IMPOSSIBLE TO TRADE. AND
LAW ENFORCEMENT HAS NO RECOURSE.
POSSESSION OF STOLEN PROPERTY IS
A CRIME AGAINST THE PERSON. SO
WITHOUT A PERSON OR VICTIM
THERE'S NO CRIME. OFFICERS
LOCATE CATCH DURING TRAFFIC
STOPS. KNOW THAT THEIR STONE
BECAME PROVE IT. AND THE
SUSPECTS ARE NEVER HELD
ACCOUNTABLE. SAN DIEGO COUNTY
HAD OVER TWENTY FOUR HUNDRED
CAPTIVES REPORTED IN TWENTY
TWENTY ONE AND THAT'S IN MY CITY
INCREASED BY SEVEN HUNDRED
PERCENT. THIS YEAR'S LOOKING
WORSE LOW INCOME COMMUNITIES
WHERE PEOPLE PARK ON THE STREET
OR UNSECURED LOTS- SPECIALLY
VULNERABLE. I MET VICTIMS LIKE
CLAUDIA AND JORGE WHO CAN AFFORD
REPAIRED OR STOLEN CATCH ANOTHER
MAKE PAYMENTS ON CARS THAT THEY
CAN'T EVEN USE. PART OF THE
PROBLEM IS CURRENT LAW CREATED A
BLACK MARKET TO MINIMAL
OVERSIGHT OF BUSINESS TO
BUSINESS CASH TRANSACTIONS. IF I
WOULD HAVE POLITICIANS BUSINESS
THEM APPLICATION WITH THE COUNTY
I COULD SELL CATS TO RECYCLER.
THAT NOW NEED ONLY LOG MY
BUSINESS NAME. THE RECYCLERS ARE
ACTING WITHIN THE LAW AND THEY
CAN CLAIM IGNORANCE BECAUSE THE
STONE CAT HAS ALREADY BEEN
LAUNDERED BY THE PREVIOUS
TRANSACTION. BETWEEN THE FIFTH
AND MY SHOW BUSINESS. I
SPECTATORS WHERE. WE THOUSAND OF
CASH THE UP WAITING SHE TO OUR-
TO THE TRAINED- CATCH JACK CUTS
. DURING REQUIRES MORE OBVIOUSLY
STOLEN. BUT HOW DO YOU PROVE
THAT SOMETHING ENTREES STONE.
SENATE BILL NINE ONE NINE MAKE
THE STATE BEFORE REACHING FOR
SARTELL. CATS WILL NOT BE MARKED
WITH. MAKING UNIQUE ALLOWING
OFFICERS TO LOCATE VICTIMS MAKE
ARRESTS. ACT BASED ON PROBABLE
CAUSE ABSENT IN A READILY
AVAILABLE VICTIM AND FINALLY.
THIS BILL WILL CLOSE LOOPHOLES
AND THAT REQUIREMENTS MAKING IT
MORE DIFFICULT TO LAUNDER STOLEN
CATS. AND THE BLACK MARKET WILL
SLOW OVERNIGHT. OPPONENTS OF THE
BILL OUR COMPANIES WORRIED ABOUT
INCREASED OVERHEAD. BUT
SUPPORTERS ARE JORGE CLAUDIA AND
EVERY CALIFORNIAN IMPACTED AND
FRUSTRATED BY THIS CRIME. WE
HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY RIGHT NOW
TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. TO
GIVE LAW ENFORCEMENT A FIGHTING
CHANCE AND THAT'S WHAT I SUPPORT
SENATE BILL NINE ONE NINE THANK
YOU. THANK YOU SIR MISSOURI
PLEASE PROCEED. THANK YOU GOOD
MORNING PONDERED THE DEVELOPMENT
EIGHTY WITH THE PERSONAL

ASSOCIATION IN PERSON. TO

IDENTIFY YOURSELF AND PROCEED
VERY GOOD MORNING MISTER CHAIR
MEMBERS ANTHONY SAMPSON WITH
SAMPSON ADVISERS HERE ON BEHALF
OF THE CALIFORNIA NEW CAR
DEALERS ASSOCIATION. THE IN CDA
HAS TAKEN AN OPPOSE UNLESS
AMENDED POSITION ON SB NINE NINE
NINETEEN AND APPRECIATE THE
AUTHOR'S WILLINGNESS TO ENGAGE
IN A DIALOGUE. WITH US REGARDING
OUR CONCERNS. FIRST YOU CAN SEE
A- THE UNDERLYING INTENT TO THE
BILL. INTO THIS AND CURRENTLY
SUPPORTS OTHER CATALYTIC
CONVERTER MEASURES. FOCUSED ON
INCREASED ENFORCEMENT. AS IT
RELATES TO THIS BILL CNC DA'S
CONCERNS RELATE SPECIFICALLY TO
THE REQUIREMENT THE DEALERSHIPS
PERMANENTLY MARK. OR ETCH THE
VIN NUMBER INTO THE CATALYTIC
CONVERTER BEFORE THE VEHICLE CAN
BE SOLD. WE'VE BEEN INFORMED
THAT SOME BELIEVE THAT PERMANENT
MARKING PERMANENTLY MARKING THE
VIN NUMBER IS SIMPLE AND
INEXPENSIVE. BUT IS THE
COMMITTEE ANALYSIS POINTS OUT
MANY VEHICLE MODELS INCORPORATE
THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. IS PART
OF THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD
REQUIRING DEALERSHIP TECHNICIANS
TO DISASSEMBLE A SIGNIFICANT
PORTION OF THE VEHICLE ENGINE
JUST ACCESS THE CATALYTIC
CONVERTER. TO PROVIDE JUSTTWO
EXAMPLES TO PERMANENTLY MARK ONE
BALL THE MODEL. IT WOULD TAKE
DEALERSHIP TECHNICIANS TWO POINT
EIGHT TO FOUR HOURS TO
PERMANENTLY MARK ONE VEHICLE
DEPENDING ON ENGINE VARIANT. FOR
CERTAIN ACURA MODELS IT CAN TAKE
TWO TO FIVE HOURS. BUT EVEN
ASSUMING PERMANENTLY MARKING VIN
NUMBERS INTO CATALYTIC
CONVERTERS WAS SIMPLE AND
INEXPENSIVE. WE WOULD KNOW FOR
THE COMMITTEE THAT MANY OF THE
MOST TARGETED VELAR VEHICLES ARE
NOT EVEN BEING SOLD BY NEW CAR
DEALERSHIPS. DATA FROM THE
SERVICE DEPARTMENT OF ONE LARGE
TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IN SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA SHOWS THAT MOST. BUT
THAT THE MOST TARGETED VEHICLE
ARE 200-062-0009 PREVIOUS'S
WHICH VERY FEW NEW CAR DEALERS
EVEN SELL. RATHER THOSE ARE
OFTEN SOLD THROUGH PRIVATE
VENDORS SELLERS LIKE CRAIGSLIST
EBAY MOTORS IN FACEBOOK MARKET
PLACE GET SB NINE NINETEEN DOES
NOT SEEK TO REQUIRE PERMANENT
MARKING THROUGH THOSE FORMS. WE
UNDERSTAND THERE'S NO SERVICE
SILVER BULLET TO THIS PROBLEM AT
THE SAME TIME C. N. C. D. A
WOULD LIKE TO WORK WITH THE
AUTHOR ON A MORE TARGETED
SOLUTION WHILE ALSO ENSURING
THAT CALIFORNIA'S NEW CAR
DEALERSHIPS. ARE NOT SALAS
SADDLED WITH THE LABOR INTENSIVE
AND COSTLY OBLIGATION OF
PERMANENTLY MARKING EVERY SINGLE
VEHICLE THAT THEY SELL. THANK
YOU. THANK YOU SIR LET'S NOW
MOVE ON TO WITNESSES WAITING TO
TESTIFY. THE TELECONFERENCE
ORVIS IN OPPOSITION TO THIS
MEASURE MODERATOR IF YOU'D
PLEASE PROMPT ANY SUCH
INDIVIDUALS WAITING TO TESTIFY.

YOU MR MODERATOR LET'S NOT BRING
THE DISCUSSION BACK TO MY
COLLEAGUES ON THE SENATE FLOOR
COLLEAGUES ANY QUESTIONS
COMMENTS OR CONCERNS. CENTER
NEWMAN. AT DAVIS YOU'RE- TO THE
AUTHOR BED DIDN'T THE- ISSUES
RAISED BY THE NEW CAR DEALERS.
OPS POTENTIAL- I UNDERSTAND FROM
YOUR SISTER YOU'RE WORKING WITH
THEM AS A SAID SOMETHING I THINK
THE WHERE YOU CAN MEET THEM. A
KIND OF POSSIBLY. BUT AND
ADDRESS THEIR CONCERNS. YES
WHERE WERE WE HAD A VERY GOOD
CONVERSATION LAST WEEK- MY STAFF
IS RUDE IS IN CONTINUOUS
CONVERSATION WITH THEM. WHEN WE
INTRODUCED THIS BILL I WASN'T
EXPECTING THAT THERE'D BE ALMOST
A DOZEN OTHER YOU KNOW CONVERTER
BILLS ON THIS AS WELL SO- WE'RE
WE'RE GONNA WORK VERY
AGGRESSIVELY WITH THEM IN AND-
THEY'RE HAVING A BOARD MEETING
AT SOME POINT TIME THIS WEEK I
THINK. AND HOPEFULLY GET TO A
POINT WHERE. WE'RE ALL HAPPY
WITH LANGUAGE ANSWER TO BE
CLEARLY DID WOULD YOU AGREE THAT
THERE SEEMS TO BE AN ESSENTIAL
DIFFERENCE FOR NEW CARS- AN
OLDER MODEL CARS AS RELATES TO
ACCESS TO CATALYTIC CONVERTERS
YES ON SOME OF THE NEW CARS- WE
CERTAINLY YOU KNOW IF IT'S HARD
FOR THE MECHANIC TO GET TO THE
CATALYTIC CONVERTER. I THINK THE
SAME ASSUMPTIONS IS HARD FOR THE
- THIEF TO GET TO THE CATALYTIC
CONVERTER WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO
FIGURE OUT AT THIS POINT TIME IS
HOW DO WE PRETEND TO LANGUAGE.
AS TO. THE CONVERTERS ARE
DIFFICULT TO GET TO VERSUS THE
ONES THAT ARE EASIER TO GET TO.
PROJECTED BASED ON THAT OF THE
GLASS WITH BUILDING THANK YOU.
THANK YOU SIR NORMAN CENTER PAM
- THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND-
ACTUALLY SERVE ALONG THE SAME
LINES A CENTER- NEWMAN- AND DOES
MAKE I THINK THAT THAT ANALYSIS
POINTS OUT THERE'S LIKE TEN
BILLS ON CALCULATORS- SO AND
CERTAINLY NO THAT IS A BIG
PROBLEM AND- MY DISTRICT IN MY
NEIGHBORHOOD- I GUESS
INTRACELLULARLY WITH THE NEW CAR
DEALERS- AND- IT IS. VISITORS
DATA AS ANYONE BEEN ABLE TO GET
DATA IN TERMS OF THE
ACCESSIBILITY OF THE NEWER AND
THE NEWER MODELS WHEN THEY'RE IN
THE MANIFOLDS ORDERS ACTUALLY
BEING STOLEN AT THAT BECAUSE-
THEY'RE HARDER TO GET TO SO I
DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE.
INFORMATION OR ANY OF THE
WITNESSES THAT HAVE HAS
INFORMATION. REGARDS TO THE-
DEGREE OF RISK OF THOSE CAL
CONVERTS COMPARED TO ONES IN
OLDER MODELS WHERE THEY'RE MUCH
MORE ACCESSIBLE AND UNDERSIDE
CAR. MY UNDERSTANDING WITH MY
CONVERSATION WITH THE NEW CAR
DEALERS ASSOCIATION LAST WEEK IS
SOME VEHICLES ARE VERY DIFFICULT
TO GET TO. AND SOME NEW VIEW
NEWER VEHICLES. ARE NOT VERY
DIFFICULT TO GET TO SO WHAT
WE'RE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT IS.
WHAT MATRIX- DO WE USED TO JUST
DISCERN THAT AND LAW. AND WHAT
LANGUAGE CAN WE COME UP WITH TO
MAKE THAT DIFFERENCE DIFFERENCE.
AND SO I TO YOUR POINT ABOUT
THERE BEING NUMEROUS BILLS. ON
THIS ISSUE- I WOULD IMAGINE AT
SOME POINT TIME. YOU KNOW SOME
OF THOSE BILLS ARE GONNA BE
NARROWED DOWN. AND YOU KNOW FOR
ME PERSONALLY I'M SUPPORTING ALL
OF THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER BILLS
TODAY. BECAUSE I THINK WE NEED
TO KEEP THE CONVERSATION GOING
IN AND HAVE A ROBUST DIALOGUE
AMONGST BOTH HOUSES. AND IN AND
GET TO A SOLUTION I THINK WE
WILL- BETWEEN THE SEVERAL
AUTHORS AND THE STAKEHOLDERS I
THINK WE'LL GET THERE. IF WE-
KEEP EVERYTHING MOVING AT THIS
POINT TIME. OKAY OKAY WELL I
THINK I THINK RESOLUTION THAT
PARTICULAR ISSUES GOING TO BE
VERY IMPORTANT AT LEAST FOR ME
AND PERHAPS FOR SOME MY
COLLEAGUES AS WELL- I DON'T WANT
TO SEE DEALERS HAVING TO
ESSENTIALLY TAKE APART. NEW CARS
IN ORDER TO GET RID OF IN NUMBER
AND THEN PUT IT BACK TOGETHER
AGAIN AND POTENTIALITY. WHETHER
IT'S A NEW CAR OR EVEN A FAIRLY
RECENT CARD IT'S NOW DOWN AND A
LOT- AND- IT'S NOT EXPENSE BUT
ALSO POTENTIALLY- YOU KNOW. WELL
BANDAGING CAR SOME OTHER HELP.
SO ESPECIALLY IF THE RISK IS
MUCH LOWER FOR SOMEONE TO STEAL
THIS CALICOBURGERS BECAUSE OF
THE POSITION ITSELF- SO
APPRECIATE AN ANSWER AND-
CERTAINLY. ABOUT FOUR TO MOVING
THE BILL FORWARD BUT HOPE THAT
THAT'S- EXPECTED THAT TO BE
ADDRESSED BEFORE IT. SHOWS UP ON
THE FLOOR THANK YOU. SIR PAN

CONVICTION. HE THERE'S YOU KNOW
IT IS VERY. DIFFICULT OR- YOU
KNOW A LOT OF LEG WORK TO FIND
OUT. YOU KNOW WHICH CAN WHICH
BOARD- LICENSE YOU CAN APPLY

YOU KNOW JIM AT WORK. I HAVE THE
INFORMATION THEY NEED TO PURSUE.
THE CAREER THAT. THEY HAVE THE

MEN WITH YOUR PERMISSION I'M
GOING TO TAKE YOUR NOVEL IF HE'S
ON THE LINE TURNOVER PLEASE
PROCEED. YES SIR CAN YOU HEAR ME
TRONG PERFECT. I AND I APOLOGIZE
I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED- BUT
ANYWAY GOOD MORNING UPDATE YOUR
ROUGHLY COMMITTEE MEMBERS THIS
IS PEDRO NAVA CHAIR LITTLE
HOOVER COMMISSION I'M HERE TODAY
IN SUPPORT OF SB FIFTY SIXTY
FIVE. AS YOU KNOW THE COMMISSION
IS AN INDEPENDENT BIPARTISAN
OVERSIGHT AGENCY CHARGED WITH
MAKING RECOMMENDATIONS TO
IMPROVE THE EFFICIENCY AND
EFFECTIVENESS OF STATE
GOVERNMENT NOW IN TWENTY SIXTEEN
THE COMMISSION ISSUED A REPORT
EXAMINING CALIFORNIA'S
OCCUPATIONAL LICENSING SYSTEM.
AND DURING OUR STUDY WE FOUND
THAT CALIFORNIA'S WITH CRIMINAL
CONVICTIONS ON THEIR RECORDS
THANKS SEVERAL CHALLENGES WHEN
TRYNG TO BECOME LICENSE IN A
REPORT ENTITLED JOB FOR
CALIFORNIANS STRATEGIES TO EASE
OCCUPATIONAL LICENSING BARRIERS
WE OFFER SEVERAL STEPS TO HELP
ADDRESS SOME OF THESE
CHALLENGES. FIRST IF THEY COULD
ONLY ASK FOR OFFICIAL CONVICTION
RECORDS RATHER THAN RELYING ON
AN APPLICANT'S MEMORY THIS WILL
ENSURE THAT APPLICANTS WON'T
FACE DISQUALIFICATION BECAUSE
THE CONVICTIONS THEY PUT ON
THEIR APPLICATIONS DON'T MATCH
WHAT. COMES BACK ON A BACKGROUND
CHECK. SECOND LIFE IN A DOOR
SHOULD BE RE. TO LIFT ON THEIR
WAY. THE CRIED TO THAT IS USED
TO EVALUATE APPLICANTS WITH
CRIMINAL CONVICTIONS. WE WANTED
TO DO THIS UP FRONT SO THAT
FORMER OFFENDERS DECIDE WHETHER
TO INVEST IN THE EDUCATION THE
TRAINING AND THE APPLICATION
PROCESS. AND FINALLY THE STATE
COULD CREATE AN INFORMAL APPEALS
PROCESS TO PROVIDE APPLICANTS
THE OPPORTUNITY. EXPLAINED
PROBLEMS WITH THEIR APPLICATIONS
RIGHT NOW APPLICANTS WHO ARE
DENIED A LICENSE MAY ENGAGE IN
AN APPEALS PROCESS BUT THAT CAN
BE CONFUSING AND EXPENSIVE. SB
THIRTEEN SIXTY FIVE WOULD
ADVANCE THE COMMISSION'S
RECOMMENDATIONS. BY HELPING
MITIGATE SOME OF THE CHALLENGES
THAT CALIFORNIA'S WITH
CONVICTIONS ON THEIR RECORDS
FACE WHEN TRYING TO BECOME LIFE.
I WANT TO THANK SENATOR JONES
FOR THIS LEGISLATION ON THIS
CRITICAL ISSUE AND THE
OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK IN SUPPORT
OF THIS BILL TODAY ON BEHALF
COOPER COMMISSION. I
RESPECTFULLY REQUEST YOUR AYE
VOTE AND I WANT TO THANK YOU
MISTER CHAIR. FOR ALLOWING ME TO
COME BACK IN LINE. THANK YOU
JOURNAL FOR YOUR- CENTER MEN.
THANK YOU TO ROTH- I WANT TO
ECHO THE CONCERNS RAISED BY MY
COLLEAGUE FROM SACRAMENTO- YOU
KNOW I THINK WE OFTEN TALK
ABOUT- YOU KNOW FIRST WHY I
SHOULD SAY I APPLAUD THE GOALS
OF THIS PARTICULAR. BILL I THINK
IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE PROVIDE
TRANSPARENCY WE PROVIDE
PATHWAYS- FOR THOSE WHO WERE
REHABILITATED WHO. SERVE THEIR
TIME- BUT I ALSO WORRY ABOUT.
THE BURDENS THAT WERE IMPOSING
ON BUSINESSES ACROSS THE BOAR
HERE IN THE STATE- IT DOES
STRIKE ME I CERTAINLY RESPECT.
THE FACT THAT LITTLE HOOVER
COMMISSION A BODY ON WHICH I
SAID IS SUPPORTING THIS BILL-
THE FACT THAT I CHAIR NOVELS
HERE TO TESTIFY IN SUPPORT OF
THIS BUT BUT I DO HAVE QUESTIONS
ABOUT HOW REDUNDANT THIS BILL IS
WHAT THE COST OF THIS BILL IS
GOING TO BE BOTH THE STATE. I
ENTERED THE BUSINESSES AND THE
PROFESSIONALS THAT IT WILL
IMPACT. AND I KNOW THAT THIS
BILL AT THIS POINT DOES NOT HAVE
A FISCAL IMPACT- IT'S SOMETHING
THAT I THINK IS UNDER STUDY- SO
I GUESS MY QUESTION TO CHERNOV A
INTO THE AUTHOR IS. I DO WE HAVE
ANY SENSE OF WHAT THE POTENTIAL
COST MIGHT BE- AND DO WE HAVE
ANY SENSE OF AGAIN MAY MAYBE
THIS IS ALREADY BEEN. ANSWERED
TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE BUT- YOU
KNOW IS THERE A WAY TO REDUCE
THE REDUNDANCY OF THIS BILL SO
THERE'S NOT CREATING OVERLAPPING
REGULATIONS OF THE KIND THAT TOO
MANY PEOPLE. IN MY DISTRICT-
COMPLAIN ABOUT. DOES THE RANGE
THE CHECKOUT PERSON YES ALL OF
OUR LIVES. THE REDUNDANCY I'M
I'M NOT SURE I UNDERSTAND THE
QUESTION ON THE REDUNDANCY YOU
KNOW IT THE- YOU KNOW A SPORTING
COMMISSION- IS INDEPENDENT TO
SOME DEGREE IN IS GOING TO HAVE
TO. YOU KNOW FIGURE OUT HOW
THEY'RE GOING TO PUT THIS
INFORMATION ON. THEIR WEBSITE
BUT I THINK THAT'S NECESSARY AS
PART OF THE BILL- ACCOMPLISH THE
GOALS OF THE BILL AS FAR AS THE
COST- I'M SURE WE'LL HAVE THAT
WORKED OUT IN APPROPRIATIONS. I
SAID ON THE APPROPRIATIONS
COMMITTEE SO I'M ALSO CONCERNED
ABOUT COSTS TO THE DIFFERENT
BOARDS AND GROWS ON THIS AS WELL
SO WILL BE TAKEN IN OVER THE
PHONE THAT TO THE PROCESS AND
WOULD BE HAPPY TO GET BACK TO.
US CENTER MAN ONCE THAT FISCAL
ANALYSIS IS DONE. THANK YOU AND
THEN JUST A FOLLOW UP I'D SAY I
WILL SUPPORT THE BILL TODAY JUST
GIVEN THE LEVEL OF LIVER
COMMISSION SUPPORT I THINK IS
IMPORTANT AND A GOOD SIGNAL- BUT
I DO THINK IT'S IMPORTANT AS
THIS BILL MOVES ALONG TO.
IDENTIFY THE COSTS AND THE
BENEFITS RIGHT HAVE A GOOD SENSE
OF- YOU KNOW WHETHER THIS BILLS
GETTING A BANG FOR THE BUCK WELL
I'M HOPEFULLY THE BENEFIT IS
THAT MANY PEOPLE THAT ARE
CURRENTLY UNEMPLOYED IN
CALIFORNIA. THAT HAVE SERVED
THEIR TIME AND THEIR DEBT TO
SOCIETY WILL BE ABLE TO COME
BACK INTO SOCIETY AND BECOME
PRODUCTIVE MEMBERS AND WORK
ALONGSIDE WITH ALL OF US. TO
MAKE A BETTER CALIFORNIA. THANK
YOU SACRAMENTO CENTER JONES.

THERE'S NO STATEWIDE ENERGY THAT

INFORM POLICY MAKING AROUND OUR

BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF HOW

CENTURIES AGO BIZ IS IT IS THE
START POINT AND- THEY MIGHT BE
IN A BETTER POSITION TO
SUBCONTRACT. WITH SOME OF THE
PEOPLE THAT WOULD BE HARDER TO
GO THROUGH- DIRECTLY AND IN THE
IDEAL WORLD. WE WOULD HAVE
SOMEBODY LIKE THE ANDERSON
SCHOOL INCORPORATED INTO THE AIR
I THANK THEY HAVE TO HAVE A
RESOLUTION FROM THE BOARD OF
REGENTS AND DO ALL THIS STUFF IN
SO I THINK WE WOULD PURSUE
THINGS LIKE THAT AND SEE IF THAT
WORKS AND IF WORSE COMES TO
WORSE. GOBIZ COULD SUBCONTRACT
WITH THEM AND GET AROUND ALL THE
OTHER REQUIREMENTS THAT MIGHT
SLOW IT DOWN AND DECIDED THAT
THEY COULD DO IT SO FOR US IT'S

FORTY EIGHT AIMS TO STREAMLINE
THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF
ANNUAL CANNABIS LICENCES. BY
ELIMINATING REDUNDANT REVIEW BY
THE DEPARTMENT OF CANNABIS
CONTROL AFTER A LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS COMPLETE SEQUEL
BUT WHILE THE LEGAL MARKET
CONTINUES TO EXPAND ILLEGAL
CANNABIS ACTIVITY REMAINS
PERSISTENT AND THIS BILL AIMS TO
ENSURE TAT THOSE ENTERING INTO
THE REGULATED MARKET. BY
SHORTENING THE TIME IT TAKES TO
AND TAINT AND ANNUAL LICENSE
ISSUED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF
CANNABIS CONTROL. THE EXISTING
PROCESS IS THIS ONE APPLE CAN
SUPPLY FOR STATE CANNABIS
LICENSE THEY TYPICALLY WORK WITH
THEIR LOCAL JURISDICTION FIRST
TO ATTEND LOCAL APPROVAL. THE
APPROVAL PROCESS INVOLVES
COMPLYING WITH SEQUEL WHETHER IT
RESULTS IN APPLYING FOR AN
AVAILABLE EXEMPTION OR PREPARING
A ROBUST ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
SUCH AS A NEGATIVE DECLARATION
OR AN ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
REPORT. WHEN THAT LOCAL PROCESS
IS COMPLETED AND THE APPLICANT
APPLIES FOR STATE COMMERCIAL
CANNABIS LICENSE THE STATE MUST
COMPLY WITH SEQUEL EVEN THOUGH
FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE STATE
SEEK WILL REVIEW THE SCOPE OF
THE PROJECT IS THE SAME THAT WAS
ANALYZED UNDER SEEK WHAT THE
LOCAL LEVEL. THE DEPARTMENT CAN
RELY ON A LOCAL JURISDICTIONS
COMPLETED ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
BUT MUST UTILIZE ITS OWN
INDEPENDENT JUDGMENT A PROCESS
WHICH CAN RESULT IN ADDITIONAL
TIME AND RESOURCES ASSOCIATED.
WITH FURTHER ENVIRONMENTAL
REVIEW ON THE SAME SCOPE OF THE
PROJECT THAT WAS REVIEWED AT THE
LOCAL LEVEL- THE STATE DESIRES

CHAIR SO SHY I AM AMONG THOSE
WHO IS OF THE FAIRLY STRONG
BELIEF THAT THE VOTERS. SPOKEN
SPOKE FAIRLY CLEARLY- THROUGH
PROP SIXTY FOUR IN TWENTY
SIXTEEN. AND SO WHAT WE SEE AT
THIS POINT- BAR CONTINUED
EFFORTS. WELL INTENTIONED YOU
KNOW TO RELITIGATE THIS ISSUE-
BUT WHAT WE WHAT WE'RE ACTUALLY
DOING IS WE'RE MAKING. THE LEGAL
MARKET FAR LESS COMPETITIVE
AGAINST THE ILLICIT MARKET- AND
THAT RUNS EXACTLY COUNTER TO
WHAT THE VOTERS WANTED IN TWENTY
SIXTEEN TO PRESS SIXTY FOUR SO
I'M I'M I'M GLAD TO SUPPORT THIS
BILL- I'D LOVE TO HEAR THE
AUTHORS SPEAK TO THIS ISSUE
BECAUSE I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT.
I AM HAPPY TO MOVE THE BILL THAT
AT THE PROTECT. THANK YOU SEVEN
WAS EITHER A QUESTION. YOU CAN
DO THAT IS CLOSER IT'S BETTER
FOR HIM THANK YOU SENTIMENTS
CENTER MEN. I WANT TO ECHO THE
COMMENTS OF MY COLLEAGUE FROM
FULLERTON AND- JUST THANK THE
AUTHOR FOR BRINGING FOR THIS
BILL- AS A LAWYER AS LAW
PROFESSOR I THINK IT'S CRITICAL
THAT WE INCENTIVIZE. COMPLIANCE
pWE SEE AROUND THE WORLD RIGHT
NOW IS IMPORTANT. AND
UNFORTUNATELY WHAT WE SEE WHEN
IT COMES TO MARIJUANA THE
CULTIVATION THE GROWTH THE
DISTRIBUTION THE SALE. OF
MARIJUANA IN THE STATE IS THAT
THOSE WHO PLAY BY THE RULES
THOSE WHO APPLY FOR LICENSES TO
PAY THE FEES AND TAXES I HAVE TO
RUN THROUGH HURDLE AFTER HURDLE-
AND IT IS INCREASINGLY BECOMING-
AS MY COLLEAGUES IMPORTANT
ALLUDED TO IT IT JUST IT NOT. A
COMPETITIVE OR- YOU KNOW
SALVAGEABLE POSITION FOR THESE
FOLKS TO BE AND- WHEN THEY'RE
COMPETING AGAINST AN UNLICENSED
MARKET THAT IS REALLY. ONE THAT
WE DON'T ENFORCE AGAINST THAT WE
DON'T HAVE THAT HAS NO
CONSEQUENCES FOR BREAKING LAW I
SO I THINK WE NEED TO DO WHAT WE
CAN TO MAKE THE LEGAL MARKET
THOSE WHO. FOLLOW THE RULES I TO
TRY TO INCENTIVIZE THEM TO
PROVIDE THEM WITH A STREAMLINED
APPROACH I ALSO THINK WE NEED TO
GO FURTHER AND TRY TO DO WHAT WE
CAN TO ENFORCE AGAINST THOSE WHO
DON'T PLAY BY THE RULES- SO I'M
HAPPY TO SUPPORT THIS BILL TODAY
NO AGAIN I WANT TO THANK THE
AUTHOR FOR BRING IT FOR. THANK
YOU A- CENTER MEANT. ANY OTHER.

AIR CENTER LAYERED WOULD YOU
LIKE TO CLOSE. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH- I APPRECIATE THE COMMENTS.
FROM MY COLLEAGUES AND I THINK
IN MANY WAYS THEY CONSTITUTE A
GOOD CLOSE. LET ME AB ONE.
PERSPECTIVE FROM SOMEBODY WHO
WAS SECRETARY OF NATURAL
RESOURCES FOR EIGHT YEARS.
BECAUSE OUR DEPARTMENT OF FISH
AND WILDLIFE HAD TO PARTICIPATE
IN ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS IN
CERTAIN PLACES. AND ONE IN
PARTICULAR STICKS IN MY MIND. IT
WAS IN MENDOCINO COUNTY THERE
WAS A MASSIVE ILLEGAL DIVERSION
OF WATER THERE WAS USE OF
PESTICIDES THAT WERE
QUESTIONABLE. BOB AT AT AT LEAST
ONE OF THEM I DON'T KNOW IF IT
WAS THAT ONE PEOPLE WERE HEAVILY
ARMED. THERE WAS NO STANDARDS OR
TESTING OF THE PRODUCT IS
REQUIRED AND THE VOTERS.
LEGALIZED AS THE VOTERS DID IT
SO IT'S OUR JOB TO BRING PEOPLE
OUT OF THE ILLICIT MARKET AND
INTO COMPLIANCE THAT'S WHAT THIS
BILL DOES END ARE. IT REQUIRES
EQUAL ON THE SAME PROJECT ONCE-
SO I APPRECIATE THE COMMENTS I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN IPHONE.

BILL BEFORE US TODAY AT SENATE
BILL ELEVEN EIGHTY SIX PLEASE
PROCEED IN READING. THANK YOU
VERY MUCH. SORRY THANK YOU VERY
MUCH MISTER CHAIR I CALL
YESTERDAY I'M PRESENTING- SENATE
BILL ELEVEN EIGHTY SIX. BY WHICH
WILL PROVIDE A CALIFORNIANS WITH
ACCESS TO SAFE AND TESTED
MEDICINAL CANNABIS- BY ENSURING
THAT OUR LOCAL JURISDICTIONS ARE
CITIES IN OUR COUNTIES- ALLOW-
FOR THE SALE OF MEDICINAL
CANNABIS. WHETHER THROUGH RETAIL
OR DELIVERY OR BOTH- TO BE CLEAR
I WANNA MAKE SURE A FEW THINGS
ABOUT THIS BILL. THE PURPOSE IS
TO MAKE SURE THAT WE DON'T HAVE
CITIES IN CALIFORNIA AS WE SPEAK
NOW. CATEGORICALLY BANNING ANY
AND ALL SALE OF MEDICINAL
CANNABIS. AND STRESSED MEDICINAL
CANNABIS THIS BILL DOES NOT
INCLUDE ADULT USE CANNABIS AND
THIS BILL DOES NOT HAVE ANYTHING
TO DO WITH PROPOSITION SIXTY
FOUR- THIS BILL IS DIRECTLY
RELATED. TO MEDICAL CANNABIS
WHICH THE VOTERS LEGALIZED IN
CALIFORNIA IN. NINETEEN NINETY
SIX- LEGALIZING MEDICINAL
CANNABIS- AM TWENTY SIX YEARS
LATER- A HUGE SWATH OF
CALIFORNIA CITIES CONTINUE- TO
UNDERMINE- WHAT PROP TWO
THIRTEEN DEAD. BY CATEGORICALLY
BANNING THE SALE OF MEDICINAL
CANNABIS CANNABIS WITHIN THEIR
JURISDICTION. MEDICAL CANNABIS
AS THE VOTERS ARE RECOGNIZED AS
THE SCIENCE RECOGNIZES- IS
INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE
STRUGGLING WITH VARIOUS
CONDITIONS ON MEDICAL CANNABIS-
REALLY TOOK HOLD IN THE NINETEEN
EIGHTIES- WHEN PEOPLE WHO ARE
DYING FROM AIDS USED MEDICAL
CANNABIS- TO IMPROVE THEIR
HEALTH- AND TO EXPERIENCE LESS
PAIN AND SUFFERING AS THEY
STRUGGLED THROUGH- HIV. ARE WE
ARE THE PEOPLE LIVING WITH
CANCER BENEFIT CANNABIS
PARTICULARLY PEOPLE WHO ARE
HAVING BAD SIDE EFFECTS OF
CHEMOTHERAPY ON PEOPLE
STRUGGLING WITH ARTHRITIS WITH
INSOMNIA WITH A NUMBER OF HEALTH
CONDITIONS OR MEDICAL HANNAH
CANNABIS HELPS PEOPLE BE
HEALTHIER AND LEAD BETTER LIVES
WHICH IS EXACTLY WHY THE VOTERS
OVERWHELMINGLY CALIFORNIA.
LEGALIZED IT AND IN FACT SINCE
CALIFORNIA LEGALIZED MEDICAL
CANNABIS IN NINETEEN NINETY SIX
WE. STATES HAVE FOLLOWED SUIT
AND YET IN CALIFORNIA
TRAGICALLY- ACTIONS BY A LARGE
MAJORITY OF CITIES- HAVE MADE
IT. DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE FOR
PEOPLE TO PURCHASE LEGAL MEDICAL
CANNABIS LEGAL MEDICINE. 62% OF
CITIES 62% MORE THAN THREE
HUNDRED CITIES IN CALIFORNIA
CATEGORICALLY BAND. ANY SALE A
CANNABIS LARGEST ADULT USE
MEDICAL CANNABIS AS WELL HUGE
SWATHS OF THE STATE. LITERALLY
PROHIBIT AND WHAT THAT MEANS IS
THAT IF YOU ARE SOMEONE LET'S
SAY WHO'S- UNDERGOING
CHEMOTHERAPY OR LIVING WITH HIV
OR HAS SEVERE ARTHRITIS OR
ANOTHER HEALTH CONDITION WHERE
YOU WILL BENEFIT. AND YOU ARE
BENEFITING FROM THIS ON CANNABIS
YOU HAVE TWO CHOICES. EITHER TO
HAVE TO TRAVEL SOMETIMES VERY
LONG DISTANCES TO OBTAIN LEGAL
MEDICAL CANNABIS OR MORE LIKELY
YOU'LL SIMPLY BY IT ON THE
ILLICIT MARKET AND I AGREE WITH
THE COMMENTS MADE THE PREVIOUS
BILLS. THAT THIS CRIMINAL
EFFECTIVE CRIMINALIZATION.
BANNING. SUSAN THE LEGAL SALE
AFFECTIVELY FUELS ILLICIT MARKET
AND FORCES PEOPLE WHO HAVE
HEALTH CONDITIONS THE BY WHEN
YOU LISTEN MARKET WHERE THEY
DON'T HAVE THE SAME ASSURANCE OF
THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF OUR THE
SAFETY OF THE PRODUCT THAT THEY
ARE PURCHASING NOW THE REASON
WHY CITIES ARE CURRENTLY AT
LEAST ARGUABLY ALLOWED TO BAN
THE SALE MEDICAL CANNABIS
THERE'S CURRENTLY A LEGAL
DISPUTE ABOUT DELIVERY BUT THE
COURTS TO ADDRESS THAT THE
REASON IS. THAT AFTER PROP SIXTY
FOUR PASSED WHICH- AUTHORIZES
CITIES THE LOCAL CONTROL TO
ALLOW CITIES TO BAN THE SALE OF
ADULT USE WITHIN THEIR
BOUNDARIES AND WE'RE NOT
TOUCHING ON NORTH PROBABLY COULD
WAIT. THE LEGISLATURE THE NEXT
YEAR AND PASSING IMPLEMENTING
LEGISLATION FOR PER PROP SIXTY
FOUR- WITHOUT BEING REQUIRED TO
DO SO THROUGH IN MEDICAL
CANNABIS AND AUTHORIZED CITIES.
TO BAN THE SALE OF MEDICAL
CANNABIS WITHIN THEIR
JURISDICTION- THAT WAS A MISTAKE
I AM AND THIS LEGISLATION WILL
HELP WALK OUT BACK. ON WHAT SB
ELEVEN EIGHTY SIX DIES THERE'S A
SAYS THE CITY'S YOU YOU CAN
DECIDE HOW YOU'RE GOING TO GRAD
ALLOW LEGAL MEDICAL CANNABIS
CELLS IN YOUR BOUNDARIES. YOU
CAN AUTHORIZE DELIVERY YOU CAN
AUTHORIZE STOREFRONTS CAN
AUTHORIZE BOTH- YOU WILL HAVE
BROAD LATITUDE IN DECIDING-
LIMITATIONS AS LONG AS IT'S
REASONABLE AND ARE NOT
EFFECTIVELY BANNING IT IN TERMS
OF THE NUMBERS AND SO FORTH-
AND- THAT'S ALL YOU HAVE TO DO.
IS JUST CAMPAÑA EVERYTHING I'M
SO COLLEAGUES THIS IS AN
IMPORTANT ACCESS- BILL I
APPRECIATE ALL THE CONVERSATIONS
THAT WE'VE HAD- AND I
RESPECTFULLY ASK. FOR YOUR I.
BOATS- WITH ME HERE TODAY- TO
TESTIFY ON HIS AB JENKINS WERE
BELIEVERS HERE IN PERSON FROM
THE CALIFORNIA CANNABIS INDUSTRY
ASSOCIATION. AND THEN APPEARING
BY TELEPHONE IS DEL GARINGER
FROM CALIFORNIA. A NORMAL. THANK
YOU SO AS JENKINS PROCEED THANK
YOU MISTER CHAIRMAN COMMITTEE
MEMBERS AMY JENKINS ON BEHALF OF
THE CALIFORNIA CANNABIS INDUSTRY
ASSOCIATION THE PROUD SPONSOR OF
SB ELEVEN EIGHTY SIX THE
MEDICINAL CANNABIS PATIENTS
RIGHT ACCESS ACT. I WANT TO
BEGIN BY THANKING THE AUTHOR FOR
INTRODUCING THIS CRITICAL
LEGISLATION WHICH WILL RESTORE
MUCH NEEDED ACCESS TO LEGAL
MEDICINAL CANNABIS ACROSS
CALIFORNIA. CALIFORNIA WAS THE
FIRST STATE TO LEGALIZE MEDICAL
CANNABIS WITH THE PASSAGE OF
PROP TO FIX TWO TO SEVENTEEN THE
PASSAGE OF PROP SIXTY FOUR A
DECADE LATER HAS LED TO FEWER
LEGALLY PERMISSIVE. PERMISSIBLE
CANNABIS RETAILERS IN THE STATE
THAN THERE WERE IN TWO THOUSAND
FIFTEEN IN OTHER WORDS MEDICINAL
CANNABIS IS HARDER TO FIND THAN
IT WAS A DECADE AGO WHILE
ESTIMATES VARY IT IS BELIEVED
THAT MORE THAN 65% OF
CALIFORNIANS TWO THOUSAND PLUS.
MEDICINAL DISPENSARIES SHUT
THEIR DOORS BY TWENTY EIGHTEEN
DEPRIVING MEDICAL CANNABIS
PATIENTS ACCESS TO SAFE QUALITY
TESTED PRODUCTS ACCORDING TO
REPORT PUBLISHED BY POLITICO
THERE WERE APPROXIMATELY TWO
LEGAL DISPENSARIES PER ONE
HUNDRED THOUSAND PEOPLE IN
OCTOBER OF TWENTY TWENTY ONE ONE
OF THE LOWEST RATES IN THE
NATION. AMONG STATE SUPPORTING
LEGAL CANNABIS SALES THE ROOT OF
THE PROBLEM CAN BE FOUND IN PROP
SIXTY FOUR IS DUAL LICENSING
STRUCTURE WHEREBY CANNABIS
BUSINESSES MUST BE LICENSED BY
BOTH THE STATE AND APPROPRIATE
LOCAL JURISDICTIONS TO OPERATE.
ACCORDING TO THE SECRETARY OF
STATE THREE HUNDRED AND NINETY
THREE OUT OF FIVE HUNDRED AND
FORTY JURISDICTIONS VOTED IN
FAVOR OF LEGALIZATION GET TO
DATE TWO THIRDS OF CALIFORNIA
CITIES STILL PROHIBIT COMMERCIAL
CANNABIS RETAIL. PROP SIXTY FOUR
INDIFFERENTLY TRIGGERED THE
CLOSURE OF THOUSANDS OF
MEDICINAL CANNABIS DISPENSARIES
AND THE CREATION OF NEW DRY
ZONES ACROSS THE STATE.
UNLICENSED CANNABIS BUSINESSES
HAPPENED A MONOPOLY ON CANNABIS
COMMERCE AND THIS IS NOT A THREE
THEORETICAL ISSUE BUT A HUMAN
ONE. CANCER PATIENTS LOOKING FOR
RELIEF FROM PAINFUL SYMPTOMS AND
TREATMENTS VETERANS LOOKING FOR
NON PHARMACEUTICAL ALTERNATIVES
FOR PTSD RELATED SLEEP ISSUES
AND STRESS AND CHRONIC PAIN
SUFFERERS. LOOKING FOR SAFE LONG
TERM ALTERNATIVES TO OPIATES
OPIOIDS THESE ARE THE PEOPLE FOR
WHOM CALIFORNIA WROTE THE
COMPASSIONATE CARE ACT OF
NINETEEN NINETY SIX. AND THE
PEOPLE TO WHOM WE OWE A DUTY OF
LOYALTY TODAY. SB ELEVEN NINETY
SIX DOES NOT SEEK TO OVERTURN
LOCAL CONTROL OR PREVENT LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS FROM JUST SAYING
NO TO ADULT USE CANNABIS
BUSINESSES. IT SIMPLY PREVENTS
JURISDICTIONS FROM BARRING
PATIENTS FROM ACCESSING THE
MEDICINE THEY NEED FOR THESE
REASONS C. C. I. A. IS PROUD TO

TO TESTIFY IN OPPOSITION THE
SENATE BILL ELEVEN EIGHTY SIX.
PLEASE PROCEED. MORNING
PERFECTLY. ON BEHALF OF THE
RURAL COUNTY REPRESENTATIVES OF
CALIFORNIA SPEAKING IN
OPPOSITION THAT THE ELEVEN
EIGHTY SIX LOCAL CONTROL IS
CENTRAL TO THE PASSAGE OF BOTH
THE ORIGINAL MEDICAL CANNABIS
REGULATION AND SAFETY ACT AND
PROPOSITION SIXTY FOUR THE KIND
AND THE COMBINED NUMBERS THAT
CALIFORNIA'S CANNABIS REGULATION
WAS NEVER INTENDED TO COMPEL THE
FITTING OF CANNABIS BUSINESSES
FOR LOCAL CONDITIONS MADE ANY
PORK THAT OTHER LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS WERE AND REMAIN IN
CRITICAL PARTNER CANNABIS
REGULATIONS WITHOUT GOOD WILLING
PARTICIPATION THIS PROGRAM
CANNOT SUCCEED SB ELEVEN EIGHTY
SIX TO DISREGARD THE THINK TANK.
I FEEL OF AN EIGHTY EXPERTISE
ENTIRELY FROM THE PREMISE THERE
ARE THREE VERY TO MEDICAL ACCESS
AND HELP THIS IS SIMPLY UNTRUE
THIRTY THREE COUNTIES A LOT
MEDICAL AND ADULT USE CANNABIS
BUT YOU CAN FOR A TOTAL OF OVER
TWO SIX NOW FIFTY SEVEN FOUR PER
OF. TWENTY COUNTIES DO NOT CAN
RETAIL AT LEAST ONE IN CITY THAT
AND IN MANY CASES MULTIPLE
THIRTY THREE OF FIFTY EIGHT
COUNTY OF SOME SORT OF ACCESS
THAT COVERED 99% OF CALIFORNIA.
I THINK ELEVEN EIGHTY SIX IMPAIR
LOCAL CAN INJURE PERMIT CAN
MEDICAL RETAIL NOW IN THE FUTURE
BY BILLION THE ABILITY TO
REGULATE CANNABIS BUSINESSES THE
BILL WOULD PROHIBIT COUNTY-
CITIES FROM ADOPTING REGULATION
FIFTEEN TO I'M REASONABLY
RESTRICT ACCESS THE BROUGHT AN
ENTIRELY OPEN ENDED DEFINITION
OF UNREASONABLE IN THE BILL%
LITTLE MORE THAN A RECIPE FOR
UNENDING LITIGATION FOR MANY
YEARS TO COME FURTHER AMENDING
EXISTING EXISTING LOCAL
ORDINANCES THAT WERE DEVELOPED
AND APPROVED AN OPEN AND PUBLIC
PROCESS WILL POSE A SIGNIFICANT
FISCAL IMPACT ON JURISDICTION.
CANNOT BE RECOUP THE FEES IN

BRING THE DISCUSSION BACK TO MY
COLLEAGUES HERE IN THE SENATE
CHAMBER COLLEAGUES ANY QUESTIONS
COMMENTS OR CONCERNS STARTING
FIRST WITH SENATOR MEN. THANK
YOU TERRA- I DO HAVE SERIOUS
CONCERNS ABOUT THIS BILL AND
I'VE ADDRESS THOSE WITH THE
AUTHOR- YOU KNOW WE'RE WE'RE- IN
CHARGE OF FORTY MILLION
RESIDENTS IN THE STATE AND- I
THINK THERE IS A PLACE FOR LOCAL
CONTROL A STRONG PLACE FOR LOCAL
CONTROL. AND I'M CONCERNED ABOUT
SOME OF THE PROVISIONS IN THIS
BILL IN PARTICULAR THE ONES THAT
WOULD OVERRIDE LOCAL ZONING
AROUND RETAIL STOREFRONTS- THAT
BEING SAID I KNOW THAT THE
AUTHOR IS WORKING RIGHT NOW- IN
IN TRYING TO NEGOTIATE- ASPECTS
OF THIS BILL WITH OPPOSITION
WITH THE LEAGUE OF. CITIES AND-
I DO WANT TO GIVE THE AUTHOR
MORE TIME TO TRY TO MAKE THIS
BILL IN A PLACE THAT THAT I
COULD BEFORE I WEAR THIS BILL TO
COME TO VOTE RIGHT NOW ON THE
FLOOR I JUST WANNA BE CLEAR I
WOULD NOT VOTE FOR IT- BUT I
WILL VOTE FOR TODAY- JUST
BECAUSE I DO WANT TO GIVE THE
OTHER TIME TO. TO TRY TO WORK
WITH THE OPPOSITION AND I HOPE
HE DOES THAT. THANK YOU. THANK
YOU SETTLEMENT CENTER PANEL.
THANK YOU AND- YEAH I WANT TO
THANK THE AUTHOR FOR- DRESSING
AN IMPORTANT ISSUE IN THIS BILL
NOT THAT I'M PERSONALY A BIT OF
A SKEPTICAL ABOUT MEDICAL
MARIJUANA- BUT- I'D THE VOTERS
SPOKE CLEARLY ABOUT ACCESS TO
MEDICAL MARIJUANA AND THEN THEY
SPOKE AGAIN ABOUT ACCESS TO
MARIJUANA. AND AND CERTAINLY
THERE IS. YOU KNOW THERE'S SOME
EVIDENCE FOR. THE USE OF
MARIJUANA TO HELP WITH CERTAIN
CONDITIONS- SO I GUESS THAT THE
QUESTION OF WHAT OPPOSED TO THE
OP THERE IS THAT AND WHAT LANE
FOR SAY THAT- WEALTHY OPPONENTS
HAVE. TESTIFIED THAT. BUT LARGE
PERCENTAGE OF CALIFORNIANS- HAVE
ACCESSTO MARIJUANA MEDICAL
MARIJUANA CHALLENGES IS THAT
WHAT THE- PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA
SAID IS THAT ACTUALLY. ALL
CALIFORNIANS SO YOU SHOULDN'T
DEPEND ON WHERE YOU LIVE WELL
YOU CAN GET ACCESS TO MEDICAL
MARIJUANA OR NOT AND SO I
BELIEVE WHAT THIS BILL DOES AND
PERHAPS OFFER COMPLETE BY IS
THAT IS LIKELY DOESN'T REQUIRE A
LOCALITY TO HAVE A- STOREFRONT.
JUST THAT IF THEY DON'T HAVE A
STOREFRONT THAT THEY HAVE TO
ALLOW DELIVERY SO THAT PEOPLE
CAN GET GET GET ACCESS AS-
PEOPLE CALIFORNIA SAID PEOPLE
SHOULD HAVE ACCESS TO MEDICAL
MARIJUANA. AND PERHAPS MAYBE CAN
ALSO TOUCH ON WHETHER.
LOCALITIES WOULD BE ABLE TO
PERHAPS. HAVE SOME GUIDELINES ON
THE DELIVERY BUT THEY HAVE TO
SHOW THAT THERE IS DELIVERY
INTERNET ALLOW STOREFRONT AND
THEN SECOND OF ALL IN THE NOW IS
DISAPPOINTED OUT THAT THERE IS
A- YOU KNOW ISSUE ABOUT WHAT IS-
UNREASONABLE AND- MAYBE. JUST
CLARIFY- ACTUALLY EXACTLY HOW
MUCH- SAY DOES A LOCALITY HAVE
UNDER THAT STANDARD TO ACTUALLY-
RESTRICT- IS A STOREFRONT- SO.
AGAIN APPRECIATE THE AUTHOR
ADDRESSING THOSE ISSUES I THANK
YOU VERY MUCH- CENTER POUND. WHY
I'M AND I AGREE WITH YOU THE
VOTERS KALISTA THAT THEY WANTED.
PEOPLE EVERYWHERE IN CALIFORNIA
TO HAVE ACCESS TO MEDICAL
CANNABIS I DO JUST WANT TO KNOW-
IN TERMS OF THE TESTIMONY FROM
THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT GROUPS. AND
THEIR LETTER I JUST HAVE TO BE
HONEST AND I WORK WITH THESE
GROUPS ALL THE TIME A LOT OF
RESPECT FOR THEM- THE LOCAL
GOVERNMENT LETTER. IN THE LEAST
SEE SOCCER ROLE COUNTY SO WE
RECEIVED- ON IT IN OUR IN OUR
FUTURE- STILL COLLEGE
STATISTICS. TEXTBOOK IN THE
CHAPTER ABOUT HOW TO MANIPULATE
STATISTICS THAT LETTER SHOULD BE
AN EXHIBIT IN THAT IN THAT
TEXTBOOK I DON'T SAY THAT.
LIGHTLY ON THAT LETTER AND I
HOPE THAT THEY WILL STOP DOING
THIS IS AN EXTREME MANIPULATION-
THE DATA AND IT REALLY PAINTS A
VERY MISLEADING. PICTURE YOU
KNOW TO TALK ABOUT COUNTIES WHEN
COUNTIES ONLY REGULATE
UNINCORPORATED AREAS AND WE HAVE
A LOT OF DISPUTES ON THAT ON
THAT DATA WHEN 62% OF CITIES IN
CALIFORNIA CATEGORICALLY BANUS.
IN TERMS OF WHAT CITIES CAN DO-
AND WE THE CITIES WILL HAVE WIDE
LATITUDE IN TERMS OF YOU KNOW
UNDER THIS BILL AGAIN BEING.
CLEAR THERE IS AN ONGOING. STAY
AT THIS ABOUT WHETHER CITIES ARE
ALL TO RISK DELIVERY AT ALL.
THERE'S THAT'S BEING LITIGATED
RIGHT NOW UNDER PROP SIXTY FOUR
AND THE COURTS AND THE END
RESULT IS NOT. ANYWAY TOUCH OUR
WE'RE NOT CHANGING- ANY EXISTING
RIGHTS AND ONE HOUSE. ON THE DAY
TEN- JUST YOU ONLY DELIVERY.
THEIR WINE. AND THEN AND THEN
THEY CAN ALSO WITH DELIVERY
STOREFRONT. THEY CAN PUT AS YOU
KNOW TO REASONABLE- LIMITATIONS
ON AS LONG AS- THAT THOSE LIMIT
THOSE LIMITATIONS. MARIN SO
SEVERE THAT IT EFFECTIVELY- YOU
KNOW- MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR
OVERLY HARD FOR PEOPLE TO
ACCESS. AND SO IN TERMS OF THE
NUMBER IF THEY GO WITH
STOREFRONT THE NUMBER OF
STOREFRONTS THEY WILL HAVE.
SIGNIFICANT FLEXIBILITY THERE
THEY DON'T HAVE TO ALLOW AS MANY
AS PEOPLE WANT TO BUILD. THEY
CAN HAVE AND REASONABLE
LIMITATIONS IN TERMS OF WHERE-
IN TERMS OF- IN TERMS OF THE
NUMBER- SO YOU KNOW FOR EXAMPLE.
A SMALL TOWN. AND IF THEY GO
WITH STORE FRONT ONE DISPENSARY
MAY BE HIGHLY REASONABLE. IF THE
IF THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES WHICH
IS AN ISSUE THERE BECAUSE THEY
ALLOW CAMERAS. CITY OF LOS
ANGELES AND ONE DISPENSARY.
THAT'S PROBABLY ON REASONABLE
FOR CITY OF ALMOST THREE
MILLION. PEOPLE DAVID CAN YOU
KNOW. THEY DON'T HAVE
STOREFRONTS FOR EXAMPLE THEY
DON'T HAVE TO LET IT BE OPEN
TWENTY FOUR SEVEN. THEY CAN PUT
REASONABLE HOURS LIMITATIONS-
BUT NINE YEAR THEY CAN'T BUT IF
THEY SAID YOU CAN BE OPEN ONE
HOUR A WEEK. THAT WOULD CLEARLY
BE. UNREASONABLE ON IF SOMEONE
CHALLENGES THE CITY'S
DETERMINATION OF WHAT'S
REASONABLE. THE CITY WILL BE
THAT THE WHAT WE CALL. AN ABUSE
OF DISCRETION STANDARD WOULD BE
APPLIED. WHICH MEANS THAT AS
LONG AS THERE'S SOME REASONABLE
BASIS FOR WHAT THE CITY DECIDED.
THE CITY WILL HAVE BROAD
LATITUDE- SO CITIES WILL STILL
HI SIGNIFICANT PART. THEY SIMPLY
CAN'T DO ACCOUNTABLE BAN ANYMORE
. THAT THANK YOU IN AND THAT'S
HELPFUL- SO. I THINK. YOU'VE
UNDERSCORED THAT CITY IS THAT
LOCALITIES CITIES AND COUNTIES
WILL HAVE A STILL CONTINUE TO
HAVE- SERVE LATITUDE THANK THEY
COULD ACTUALLY OF- ELIMINATE
STORMS SAY WE WANT A STOREFRONT
AND AGAIN THIS IS A JUST ABOUT
MEDICAL CANNABIS THIS IS NOT
CAMPUS OVERALL THE MEDICAL
CANNABIS THAT THEY WOULD STILL
BUT THEN THEY WOULD STILL NEED
TO ALLOW PEOPLE LIVE IN THEIR TO
HAVE ACCESS TO IT THROUGH THE
LIVERY. SO SO WITH THAT ANY
APPRECIATE CLARIFICATIONS I
THINK THAT THE VOTERS DID SAY
THAT PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE ACCESS
TO MEDICAL CANNABIS AND I THINK
THAT- AND SO THE NINE THEM
DANCE- BY BASICALLY ELIMINATE
ALL OPPORTUNITIES I THINK THIS
IS PROBLEMATIC AND SO BUT I DO
HOPE THAT YOU CONTINUE TO WORK
WITH LOCALITIES TO FIGURE OUT
SOMEBODY'S BOUNDARIES BUT WITH
THAT- CERTAINLY- I APPRECIATE
THE RAIN BILL FORD AND LOCAL
SUPPORT THE BILL SO YOU CAN WORK
ON THAT THANK YOU. THANK YOU

A HARD STOP IN THE CHAMBER AT
ONE FIFTEEN SO YOU CAN WORK THE
MATH SO UNLESS WE PICK IT UP. WE
WILL BE RESUMING HERE AFTER
SESSION CONCLUDES UNTIL WE
FINISH THE BUSINESS AND
PROFESSIONS AND ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE AGENDA. SO
WITH THAT CENTER BRADFORD YOU
HAVE ONE BILL TODAY IT IS SENATE
BILL THIRTEEN SEVENTEEN PLEASE
PROCEED IN READING THANK YOU MR
CHAIRMAN. THIRTEEN SEVENTEEN
WHICH IS AIMED AT PROTECTING
PAWN. BOB HUNT CUSTOMERS FROM
IDENTITY THEFT AND ALSO PROTECT
THE SAME CUSTOMERS FROM
POTENTIAL PROFILING BY LAW
ENFORCEMENT AND THIRD PARTY
VENDORS THAT HAVE ACCESS TO
IDENTIFYING CUSTOMER
INFORMATION. FARM BROKERS IN
CALIFORNIA HEAVILY REGULATED AND
PROVIDE A VALUABLE SOURCE OF
SHORT TERM CREDIT TO INDIVIDUALS
WHO MAY NOT OTHERWISE HAVE
CREDIT SAVINGS FOR MONEY TO PAY
AN UNEXPECTED EXPENSE SUCH AS
CAR REPAIR ARMOR MEDICAL
EMERGENCY. PROMPT BURKE POT
BROKERS ALSO SERVE AS A
FINANCIAL SAFETY NET FOR THE
UNBANKED POPULATION AS EVERYONE
WHO SEEKS A PAWN LOAN CAN BORROW
MONEY REGARDLESS OF THEIR
CREDIT. WORTHINESS FOR EVERY
PAWN LOAN EIGHT ZERO NUMBER OF
THE ITEM USE ASK COLLATERAL AS
WELL AS DETAILED PERSONAL
INFORMATION FOR THE CUSTOMER IS
ENTERED INTO THE DEPARTMENT OF
JUSTICE CALIFORNIA UPON. AND
SECONDHAND DEALERS SYSTEM BETTER
KNOWN AS CAPS. OVER THE PAST
SEVERAL YEARS THERE HAVE BEEN
MANY HIGH PROFILE DATA BREACHES
IN THE PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTOR
ACCORDINGLY THE POTENTIAL FOR
PERSONAL INFORMATION UPON
CUSTOMERS TO BE LEAKED CREATES A
HEIGHTENED RISK. OF IDENTITY
THEFT BECAUSE THESE INDIVIDUALS
HAVE LIMITED FINANCIAL RESOURCES
THEY ARE OFTEN LEFT WITH LITTLE
OR NO RECOURSE IN THE EVENT OF
THAT THEIR PERSONAL OR FINANCIAL
INFORMATION HAS BEEN
COMPROMISED. REDUCING THE RISK
OF EXPOSURE OF PERSONALLY
IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION DURING
SECONDHAND PAWN TRANSACTIONS IS
CRITICAL TO PROTECTING VALUABLE
COMMUNITIES FROM THEFT IN
PREDATORY SCHEMES UNDER THIS
BILL. PAWN BROKERS WILL CONTINUE
TO COLLECT AND RECORD THE SERIAL
NUMBERS OF ALL ITEMS USED AS
COLLATERAL AS WELL AS PERSONAL
INFORMATION OF THE CUSTOMER.
HOWEVER ONLY SERIAL NUMBERS
WOULD BE ENTERED INTO THE CAPS
SYSTEM THEREBY PROTECTING THE
PERSONAL INFORMATION OF
CUSTOMERS. PAWNBROKERS WOULD
STILL BE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE LAW
ENFORCEMENT WITH THE PERSONAL
IDENTIFYING IDENTIFYING
INFORMATION WHEN REQUESTED
ADDITIONALLY I'M AMENDING THIS
BILL FOLLOWING THE COMMITTEES-
WE ARE FOLLOWING THIS COMMITTEE
TO CLARIFY THIS INFORMATION MUST
BE PROVIDED TO LAW ENFORCEMENT
IMMEDIATELY UPON REQUEST AND NO
LATER THAN THE NEXT BUSINESS
DAY. I WANT TO THANK TWO
COMEDIANS CHEER FOR THE ANALYSIS
AND RECOMMENDING THIS AMENDMENT.
TESTIFYING TODAY AS FORMER
MEMBER OF BURKE TOOK TO RICO WHO
REPRESENTS THE CALIFORNIA
PAWNBROKERS ASSOCIATION I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR A VOTE.

THEFT OF CATALYTIC CONVERTERS SO
I WILL NOT BELABOR THAT POINT-
THIS BILL- PROVIDES THAT- WHEN A
CAR IS SOLD TO THE SELLER- TIME

NUMBER ON THE CATALYTIC
CONVERTER. WILL ALSO- REQUIRES-
CORPS RECYCLERS OF CATALYTIC
CONVERTERS MAINTAIN RECORDS THAT
DESCRIBE EACH CATALYTIC
CONVERTER WITH SUFFICIENT
PARTICULARITY AND ALSO THEY'RE
BASICALLY BE A CHAIN OF PAYMENT
REQUIRING SOME SORT OF- EITHER
CREDIT CARD OR CHECK OR SOME
OTHER WAY OF MAINTAINING. THE
CHAIN OF POSSESSION WITH RESPECT
TO THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER I
HAVE WITH ME- I THINK

THANK YOU SIR WITNESSES PLEASE
PROCEED WHEN READING. ALL RIGHT
THANK YOU LUCK GOOD AFTERNOON
EVERYBODY MY NAME IS ALEX PARKIN
AND I'M A DEPUTY DISTRICT
ATTORNEY WITH LOS ANGELES
COUNTY- WE ARE THE SPONSORS OF
THIS IMPORTANT LEGISLATION. IN
EIGHTY EIGHT FOR TWENTY NINE
YEARS FOURTEEN OF WHICH WERE
WITH THE A LOS ANGELES COUNTY
AUTO THEFT TASK FORCE WHERE HE
SERVED AS THE DEPUTY IN CHARGE-
ONCE AGAIN I'M NOT GONNA TELL
YOU ALL. ABOUT WHAT A BIG
PROBLEM CATALYTIC CONVERTER
THEFT AS WE ALL KNOW IT- IT'S A
NATIONWIDE PROBLEM AND
PROSECUTORS ACROSS THE COUNTRY
WE ALL FACE THE SAME ISSUE.
UNLESS THERE'S AN IDENTIFYING
NUMBER ON THE CATALYTIC
CONVERTER IT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE
FOR US TO PROSECUTE THIS AS A
CRIME- EVERYONE'S CAR HAS A- THE
SERIAL NUMBERS COLUSA IN ITS ON
YOUR DASHBOARD ANYBODY CAN SEE
IT BUT WHAT YOU CAN'T SEE IS
THAT ALL THROUGH THE INSIDE OF
YOUR CAR. THAT VIN NUMBERS
DUPLICATED ON EVERY IMPORTANT
SYSTEM EVERYTHING THAT'S
EXPENSIVE INSIDE YOUR CAR THAT'S
WORTH STEALING HAS THE VIN
NUMBER WITH THE EXCEPTION OF A
CATALYTIC CONVERTER- THE REASON
THAT THAT THE- STAFF HAS
EXPLODED LIKE THIS IS BECAUSE
THE PAYS A LOT OF MONEY AND IT'S
VIRTUALLY RISK FREE. UNLESS WE
ACTUALLY CATCH THESE GUYS IN THE
ACT IT'S A REALLY DIFFICULT. FOR
US TO HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE.
FURTHERMORE THE TAKE HIS PART
THEY SELDOM A LOT OF MONEY A LOT
FUN THE WAY- A- RECYCLER. AND
DOES THE RECYCLE ALSO. BE HOW
RESPONSIBLE FOR BY SCHOOL GOODS
. BECAUSE UNLESS THERE'S AN
IDENTIFY NUMBER THERE'S NO THAT
WE CAN. THAT THEY STOLEN- THE
DATE- SENATOR UMBERG HIS- YOU
KNOW PUT. ADDRESSES OF THESE
ISSUES IT'LL HAPPEN. IN IF THE
SHOULD GO INTO EFFECT IF THESE
ARE CAUGHT WITH A FEW CATALYTIC
CONVERTERS WE WILL BE ABLE TO
HOLD RESPONSIBLE. FOR THE MORE-
ONCE WE CAN IDENTIFY THE
CATALYTIC CONVERTERS. THE MARKET
FOR THE STOLEN PARTS SHOULD
COLLAPSE- CATALYTIC CONVERTER
THEFT IS NEVER GONNA GO AWAY
JUST LIKE ALL KINDS OF AUTO
THEFT. WITH THIS BILL SHOULD
DRAMATICALLY REDUCE THE PROBLEM-
ARE LAW ENFORCEMENT COLLEAGUES
ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY ARE
CONSIDERING SIMILAR APPROACH TO
IDENTIFYING THESE CATALYTIC
CONVERTERS AND WERE URGING YOU
TO DO TO SAY. IF YOU HAVE ANY
QUESTIONS I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER
THEM OTHERWISE WE RESPECTFULLY
ASK YOUR AYE VOTE ON THIS BILL

SOMETIMES THEY'RE TARGETED
MULTIPLE. AND IT COSTS REAL
HARDSHIP FOR THEM NOT ONLY
BECAUSE THEY OFTEN HAVE TO PAY
HALF THE DEDUCTIBLE SOMETIMES
ALSO SEE THEIR INSURANCE RATE
INCREASE. BUT THE HARMFUL FACTOR
OF HAVING TO REPLACE THE
CONVERTER- LOGISTICALLY
SPECIALLY FOR PEOPLE WHO WORK AT
A JOB WHERE IT'S DIFFICULT TO
GET TIME OFF FROM WORK AND- SHE
LEFT THEIR CARD WHATEVER IT
NEEDS TO GO TO BE REPAIRED- IT
CAUSES WILL WELL PROBLEMS. AND

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA- URGING A
SUPPORT ON THIS MEASURE THANK
YOU SIR NEXT PLEASE. NO FOR THE
LINE THANK YOU FOR SUPPORT THANK
YOU LET'S FOLLOW THE SAME
PROCESS AND HEAR FROM ANY
OPPOSITION FIRST LET'S MOVE TO
WITNESSES HERE IN THE GALLERY
AND AGAIN- WE HAVE A
REPRESENTATIVE OF THE CALIFORNIA
NEW CAR DEALERS ASSOCIATION.
SKEWS ME TO TESTIFY IN
OPPOSITION ANTHONY SAMPSON.
GREAT THANK YOU MISTER CHAIRMAN
REYES ANTHONY SAMPSON HERE ON
BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA NEW CAR
DEALERS ASSOCIATION- YOU'VE
HEARD THIS TESTIMONY ALREADY
TODAY BUT- TO ENSURE THAT THE-
THAT THE AUTHOR HAS THE BENEFIT
OF HEARING MY REMARKS I'LL
REPEAT THEM AGAIN HERE. THE NCAA
HAS TAKEN OPPOSE UNLESS AMENDED
POSITION ON SB NINE EIGHTY SIX
AND APPRECIATE SENATOR UMBERG'S
WILLINGNESS TO ENGAGE IN A
DIALOGUE WITH US REGARDING OUR
CONCERNS. BURSAE IN CDA SUPPORTS
THE UNDERLYING INTENT OF THE
BILL AND TO THIS END CURRENTLY
SUPPORTS OTHER CATALYTIC
CONVERTER MEASURES FOCUSED ON
INCREASED ENFORCEMENT. AS IT
RELATES TO THIS BILL C. N. CD'S
CONCERNS RELATE SPECIFICALLY TO
THE REQUIREMENT THE DEALERSHIPS
PERMANENTLY MARK OR ETCH THE VIN
NUMBER INTO THE CATALYTIC
CONVERTER BEFORE VEHICLE CAN BE
SOLD. WE'VE BEEN INFORMED. THAT
SOME BELIEVE PERMANENT MARKING
THE VIN NUMBER NUMBER IS SIMPLE
AND INEXPENSIVE. WHAT IS THE
COMMITTEE ANALYSIS POINTS OUT
MANY VEHICLE MODELS INCORPORATE
THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AS PART
OF THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD
REQUIRING DEALERSHIP TECHNICIANS
TO DISASSEMBLE A SIGNIFICANT
PORTION OF THE VEHICLE ENGINE
JUST TO ACCESS THE CATALYTIC
CONVERTER. BY JUST TWO EXAMPLES
TO PERMANENTLY MARK ONE VOLVO
MODEL WOULD TAKE DEALERSHIP
TECHNICIANS TWO POINT EIGHT FOUR
HOURS THE PERMANENTLY MARKED ONE
VEHICLE DEPENDING ON ENGINE
VARIANTS AND FOR CERTAIN ACURA
MODELS IT CAN TAKE TWO TO FIVE
HOURS. BUT EVEN ASSUMING
PERMANENT MARKING THE VIN
NUMBERS INTO CATALYTIC
CONVERTERS WAS SIMPLE AND
INEXPENSIVE WE WOULD NOTE FOR
THE COMMITTEE THAT MANY OF THE
MOST TARGETED VEHICLES ARE NOT
EVEN BEING SOLD BY NEW CAR
DEALERSHIPS. DATA FROM THE
SERVICE DEPARTMENT OF ONE LARGE
TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IN SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA SHOWS THAT THE MOST
TARGETED VEHICLE IS THAT IT ARE
THE 200-062-0009 PRIUS IS WHICH
VERY FEW NEW CAR DEALERS EVEN
SELL. RATHER THAN THOSE ARE
OFTEN SOLD THROUGH PRIVATE
VENDORS SELLERS LIKE RECKLESS
EBOOK EBAY MOTORS. AND FACEBOOK
MARKET PLACE YET SB NINETY SIX
DOES NOT SEEK TO REQUIRE
PERMANENT MARKING THROUGH THOSE
FORUMS. WE UNDERSTAND THERE'S NO
SILVER BULLET SOLUTION TO THIS
PROBLEM AT THE SAME TIME C. AND
C. D. A. WOULD LIKE TO WORK WITH
SENATOR- BURKE ON A MORE
TARGETED SOLUTION WHILE ALSO
ENSURING. THAT CALIFORNIA'S NEW
CAR DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT SADDLED
WITH THE LABOR INTENSIVE AND
COSTLY OBLIGATION OF PERMANENTLY
MARKING EVERY SINGLE VEHICLE
THEY SELL THANK YOU. THANK YOU

NINETY SEVEN CANNABIS RIGHT TO
KNOW ACT THIS MEASURES BASED ON
THE STATE OF THE ART SCIENCE AND
HOW TO HELP PEOPLE UNDERSTAND
THE KEY HEALTH RISKS ASSOCIATED
CANNABIS. AND WHICH IS USED IN
THREE DIFFERENT WAYS FIRST
REQUIRES RETAILERS PROVIDE FIRST
TIME CONSUMERS A SCIENCE BASED
DOUBLE SINGLE PAGE BROCHURE WITH
A SIMPLE STEP SIMPLE STEPS
RECEIVE FOR USE SECOND REQUIRES
A ROTATING HEALTH WARNING LABEL
ENCOURAGING CONSUMERS TO BUY
LEGAL PRODUCTS AND EXPLAIN THE
POSSIBLE HAZARDS OF ILLICIT
CANNABIS AND THIRTY REQUIRES
MORE PROMINENT ROTATING HEALTH
WARNING LABELS BASED ON
ESTABLISHED SCIENCE FOR CANNABIS
PACKAGING. BILL ALSO SPECIFIES
THAT THE ROTATING MESSAGES IS
THAT DOES THE DESIGN FOR CERTAIN
PRODUCT CATEGORIES FOR EXAMPLE
IN HILL PRODUCTS WILL
CONTAINERISED ANY MESSAGE AROUND
HAZARDS OF SMOKING A PRODUCT
WEARS ANIMAL PRODUCTS WILL
CONTAIN A WARNING ON THE AFFECT
THAT ON WHEN THE EFFECTS COULD
START AND WHY WAITING. QUITE A
WAIT BEFORE EATING MORE THE
LABELING STANDARDS IN SB TEN
NINETY SEVEN ALREADY USED IN
CANADA AND ALIGN WITH SIMILAR
INCOMING FTA PROVING
CONGRESSIONAL MANDATE THEY TO
TOBACCO LABELLING STANDARDS
CURRENTLY THE LABELING ON CAMPUS
PRODUCT IT'S HARD TO SEE AND
INSUFFICIENT FOR EDUCATING THE
PUBLIC ON HEALTH RISKS AND IF I
USE A PROP SO YOU SAMPLED YOU
CAN'T SEE VERY MUCH HERE. PRINT
SMALL NOT KNOWING THE CURRENT
HEALTH RISK COULD BE DETRIMENTAL
PARTICULARLY FOR TEENS AND YOUNG
ADULTS WHO ARE MOST. VULNERABLE
TO THESE HARMS AFTER TO
PROSECUTE DIDN'T SEE. INCREASE
IN CANNABIS USE AMONG CAL TEENS
. AGES TWELVE TO SEVENTEEN AND
IN DAILY USE BY ADULTS THERE'S
ALSO BEEN AN INCREASE IN THC
CONTENT OR POTENCY OF THE
CANNABIS PRODUCTS. USES THESE
MORE POTENT PRODUCTS ARE MORE
LIKELY TO HAVE NEGATIVE MENTAL
HEALTH IMPACTS AND CAUSE HARMFUL
CHANGES. TO DEVELOPING BRAINS OF
CHILDREN AND YOUTH UP UNTIL
THEIR MID TWENTIES. WELL THE
CURRENT LABELS MAY LIST THE HIGH
THC CONTENT THEY DO NOT PROPERLY
REFLECT THE SIGNIFICANTLY
INCREASED DANGERS ASSOCIATED
WITH IT. THINK OF MENTAL HEALTH.
WE MADE. AMENDMENTS IN THE BILL
RESPONSE THE HELPFUL ISSUES.
IDENTIFIED THANKS THE HELPFUL
FEEDBACK BILL WILL NOT REQUIRE
ANY INCREASES IN PACKAGING AND-
AND FONT SIZE CAN BE SKILLED OF
PACKAGES USUALLY SMALL. MAJOR
NEW CAR SHOULD NOT BE KURDS AND
THE WARNING LABELS WILL. CHANGE
THE DESIGN EXISTING PACKAGING
THE MUSCLE REPRINTED. WE ALSO
SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCE THE AMOUNT
OF PAPER BEING HANDLED BY A
REDUCING THE FOCUS TO NEW
CUSTOMERS. SB TEN NINETY SEVEN

HEAR ME FINGERPRINT A GOOD
AFTERNOON MR CHAIRMAN AND
MEMBERS AMY JENKINS ON BEHALF OF
THE CALIFORNIA CANNABIS INDUSTRY
ASSOCIATION AND RESPECTFUL
OPPOSITION TO SB TEN NINETY
SEVEN THIS BILL WOULD SUBJECT
THE LEGAL CANNABIS INDUSTRY TO
DUPLICATIVE LABELING
REQUIREMENTS CREATE EXCESSIVE
NEW COSTUME LANDFILL WASTE AND
IN PRACTICE DO A DISSERVICE TO
THE CONSUMER. SB TEN NINETY
SEVENS INTENDED OBJECTIVES TO
DISCOURAGE YOUTH ACCESS IMPROVE
PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY AND
REDUCE DEMAND FOR CANNABIS
PRODUCTS FROM THE ILLICIT MARKET
ARE LAUDABLE HOWEVER WE FAIL TO
SEE HOW SB TEN NINETY SEVEN
WOULD MEET THOSE OBJECTIVES
UNDER RECURSOS LEGAL CANNABIS
PRODUCTS ARE ALREADY REQUIRED TO
INCLUDE CLEAR AND EFFECTIVE
WARNING LABELS THAT COMMUNICATE
SCIENTIFICALLY ESTABLISHED
HEALTH RISKS SB TEN NINETY SEVEN
FAILS TO ACCOUNT FOR THE NEW
RECENTLY APPROVED PROP NIGHT
SIXTY FIVE LABELING. MARC
REQUIREMENTS WHICH ALREADY
INCLUDE THE ADDITION OF THE WORD
LEARNING NEW LANGUAGE ABOUT
EXPOSURE TO SMOKE AND T. H. C.
AND A LIST OF POSSIBLE
CARCINOGENS BY NAME SB TEN
NINETY SEVEN IS BASED ON A
FLAWED PREMISE THAT YOUNG PEOPLE
ARE ACCESSING LEGAL PRODUCTS
WELL WE DO NOT DISPUTE THE FACT
THAT YOUNG PEOPLE ARE ACCESSING
CANNABIS PRODUCTS IN TWENTY
TWENTY ONE REPORT COMMISSIONED
BY THE INSURANCE INSTITUTE FOR
HIGHWAY SAFETY. IN PARTNERSHIP
WITH THE UNIVERSITY'S OF CHICAGO
MINNESOTA AND LOCAL LAW
ENFORCEMENT DID NOT FIND A
SINGLE INSTANCE OF A LEGAL
CALIFORNIA RETAILER ALLOWING AN
INDIVIDUAL INTO THEIR PROMISES
WITHOUT PROPER IDENTIFICATION
IMPLEMENTATION OF TEN NINETY
SEVEN WILL MAKE LEGAL PRODUCTS
MORE EXPENSIVE HIGHER COSTS TO
PRODUCE LEGAL PRODUCTS WERE
INEVITABLY RESULT IN HIGHER
PRODUCT PRICES WITH CALIFORNIA'S
ILLICIT CANNABIS MARKET
ESTIMATED TO BE WORTH NEARLY
EIGHT BILLION ANNUALLY SB TEN
NINETY SEVEN WILL ONLY SERVE TO
BOLSTER THE UNLICENSED CANNABIS
MARKET. BY DRIVING MORE
CONSUMERS TO THE ILLICIT MARKET
UNDERMINING CONSUMER HEALTH AND
SAFETY FOR THESE REASONS THE CIA
RESPECTFULLY OPPOSES. SB TEN
NINETY SEVEN. IF THANK YOU

LABELING REQUIREMENTS. THE LEGAL
CANNABIS INDUSTRY IS AT AN
INFLECTION POINT IN ADDING
DUPLICATIVE AND SOMETIMES.
CONFLICTING LABELS WILL ONLY
HURT THE INDUSTRY AND BOLSTER
THE ILLICIT MARKET.
COMPREHENSIVE A FROM THE

. THANK YOU NEXT PLEASE. MR
SURELY HAVE NO ONE ELSE THANK
YOU AT THIS TIME THANK YOU MR
MODERATOR. LET'S NOW BRING THE
DISCUSSION BACK TO MY COLLEAGUES
HERE IN THE SENATE CHAMBER
COLLEAGUES ANY QUESTIONS
COMMENTS. OR CONCERNS REGARDING
SENATE BILL TEN NINETY SEVEN.
OKAY SENATOR EGGMAN FOLLOWED BY
SENATOR NEWMAN. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH THANK YOU DR PAN- I ARE YOU
HAVE SOME CONCERNS ABOUT ABOUT
YOUR BILL AS I DO WITH A LOT OF
BILLS THAT HAVE TO DO WITH
LABELING CAN YOU I MEAN JUST
FIRST TELL ME WHAT WHY THIS TWO
PART WHY THE- THE HANDOUT WHICH
SEEMS MORE REASONABLE. AND THEN
THE LABELING AND WHILE THERE'S A
LOT OF DETAILED INFORMATION.
ABOUT SOME OF THE HARM THAT
COMES NONE OF THAT REALLY
ADDRESSES THE ISSUE OF LABELING
AND HOW LABELING WOULD INDEED
HELP. AND THEN. THIS JUST JUST
IMPACTS. THE LEGAL MARKET WHICH
IS ONLY PLACE WE CAN IMPACT.
WHICH IS ALREADY STRUGGLING AND
BY DEFINITION IS MORE IS SAFER
THAN THE ILLEGAL MARKET SO HOW
DOES THIS CONTINUE TO KEEP OUR
LEGAL MARKET. FUNCTIONAL THREE
QUESTIONS HOW DOES COOPER LEGAL
MARKET FUNCTIONING WHAT DATA DO
WE REALLY HAVE ON THE IMPACTS OF
LABELING. AND THERE WAS A STUDY
FUNDED IN TWENTY TWENTY ON TO
LOOK AT THE IMPACTS OF LABELING
AND WE STILL HAVEN'T RECEIVED
THAT AS I UNDERSTAND IT- AND
THEN WIDE BY THE TWO PART
APPROACH. OKAY THANK YOU FOR
SUCH A QUESTION SIR AG MEN UP
FIRST OF ALL I WANNA SAY THAT
THE- YEAH WE ACTUALLY DO WANT TO
DISCOURAGE USE OF ILLICIT
CANNABIS AND- AND CERTAINLY-
YEAH. WELL PART OF IT IS
EDUCATING PEOPLE ABOUT THE NOT
JUST THE DANGERS CANNABIS BUT
PARTICULARLY INCLUDING DANGERS
OF ILLICIT CANNABIS NOW BELIEVE
THAT THESE. LABELS ARE ALSO CITE
THE ILLICIT PEOPLE CRY AND
LIKELY TO PUT THE LABELS ON
OTHER TECHNICALLY I THINK THEY
COULD BE YOU KNOW ACTUALLY
PROSECUTE THEY DON'T HAVE THE
LABELS ON. BECAUSE THEY'RE
SELLING CANNABIS IN ADDITION TO
ALL THE OTHERS IS THAT THEY
COULD BE PROSECUTED FOR. THE AND
IN TERMS OF THE- EVENTS AROUND
THE LABELING ITSELF WE DO HAVE
EVIDENCE FROM EXPERIENCE WITH
TOBACCO AND LABELING TOBACCO
PRODUCTS- IN TERMS OF THE
EFFECTIVENESS OF THE LABELING
PARTICULARLY DISCOURAGING- USE
BY YOUTH- AND- BE SURE THAT. YOU
KNOW PEOPLE ARE AWARE OF THE
DIFFERENT- CHALLENGES THAT ARE
RAISED BY- TOBACCO IN AND IN
THIS CASE- THAT CANNABIS THAT
REASON FOR THE TWO STAGES IS
THAT- CERTAINLY AGAIN I WILL
KNOW WHEN. WE TOOK AMENDMENTS
AND ALSO WE WANT TO BE SURE THAT
YOU KNOW THE LABELS AND LIKE THE
WHOLE PACKAGE RIGHT SO YOU
THERE'S ONLY SO MUCH INFORMATION
YOU CAN PUT ON A LABEL BUT- TO
BE SURE THAT. IT'S TIME
CUSTOMERS DO YOU HAVE THE
INFORMATION BECAUSE THAT SAID
PEOPLE MAY NOT BE AWARE. THAT
THAT MODERN- CANNABIS OFTEN
TIMES MORE POTENT THAN PERHAPS
THAN. SOME PEOPLE WOULD USE IN
THE PAST OR- ARE THAT- THEY
REMEMBER TO HEAR FROM OTHER
PEOPLE AS WELL SO I THINK IT'S
IMPORTANT PEOPLE HAVE UP TO DATE
INFORMATION. WHICH WOULD BE
SOMETHING THAT WOULD THAT YOU
CAN. EXPLAIN IN MORE DETAIL IN A
BROCHURE YOU KNOW I. HAVEN'T PUT
IT ALL INTO A LABEL AND THE
LABEL WOULD. BASICALLY KEEP
POINT INTO ROTATING LABELS WELL.
AND THIS BUT THE SCIENCE ON THE
LABELING COMES FROM OUR
EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE FROM.
FROM LABELING AND TOBACCO. AND
AND SO THERE'S A CONSIDERABLE
EVIDENCE FOR THE EFFECTIVENESS
OF THAT TYPE OF LABELING FROM
THAT EXPERIENCE. OKAY I
APPRECIATE YOUR ANSWER I MEAN I
DON'T KNOW THAT IT'S ANALOGOUS
TO TOBACCO BECAUSE WE DIDN'T
HAVE A LEGAL AND ILLEGAL ILLICIT
TOBACCO MARKET GOING AT THE SAME
TIME. AS A LEGAL ONE AND IT
WASN'T JUST THE LABELING WAS
ALSO TAXES AND INCREASED IN A
BIG. PUBLIC AWARENESS CAMPAIGNS
OF. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ANSWER.
OKAY I THANK YOU CENTER EGGMAN
SENTIMENT. THANK YOU MR SIX
HUNDRED GRAND- FORTUNATELY FOR
ME CENTER EGGMAN IS. EFFECTIVELY
ARTICULATED A COUPLE OF MY
QUESTIONS. AND TO HER POINT I
GUESS IN IN RESPONSE TO YOUR
REPLY. ONE OF THE POINTS MADE I
THINK THAT'S COMPELLING TO ME BY
THE OPPONENTS IS. IF WE'RE
DISCUSSING USE BY YOU. WHAT
WHERE WE'RE ALSO YOU KNOW WE'RE
WE'RE DISCUSSING PRODUCTS WHICH
BY DEFINITION- IF THEY ARE LEGAL
WILL ONLY BE FOUND AND CAN ONLY
BE PURCHASED BY ADULTS. IN
LICENSES PRESSURES SO YOU KNOW
THERE'S THE BROADER QUESTION
ABOUT THE I GUESS THE SECONDARY
USER SECONDARY EXPLOSIONS THE
PRODUCTS- AND I'M- I AM AS WITH
SUGAR WINNERS EARLY BILL.
CONCERNED ABOUT THE IMPACTS ON
THE LEGAL MARKET ESPECIALLY THE
CITY AT THE APPARENT SUCCESS
OVER TIME SINCE TWENTY SIXTEEN
OF US MARKET- AND SO FOR THAT
REASON- I WILL BE STAYING UP
THIS BILL TODAY- I DO APPRECIATE
WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO DO LIKE I
DO THINK THERE IS A NEED. FOR
CONTINUAL EDUCATION OF CONSUMERS
TO TAKE YOUNG PEOPLE- BUT IN MY
EXPERIENCE IN IN TALKING TO
REPRESENTATIVES OF THE LEGAL
CANNABIS MARKET. THEY'RE GLAD TO
DO THAT IN GOOD FAITH- AND TO
CENTER EGGMAN'S POINT YOU KNOW
WE'RE STILL WAITING FOR SOME
DATA BACK. AS THE BEST
PRACTICES- JOHN WITHHOLD MY
DECISION ON THAT BASIS THANK YOU
. ALEX ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS
COMMENTS OR CONCERNS SENATOR
MELINDA. THANK YOU MR CHAIRMAN-
SENATOR PAN RIGHT I HEARD YOU
SAY THAT- YOU'RE BASING THIS OFF
OF THE TYPE OF WARNINGS THAT
WERE USED FOR TOBACCO PRODUCTS-
BUT I'M LOOKING AT A STUDY HERE
FROM JAVA THAT SAYS. HE DID A
RANDOMIZED CLINICAL TRIAL. SAYS
THT THEY FOUND GRAPHIC WARNING
LABELS DECREASED POSITIVE
PERCEPTION OF CIGARETTES BUT
WITHOUT CLEARLY INCREASING
HEALTH CONCERNS AND THEY ALSO
INCREASED QUITTING COGNITIONS
BUT DID NOT AFFECT EITHER
CIGARETTE SENSATION CESSATION OR
CONSUMPTION LEVELS SO I'M JUST.
IS THERE. WHAT STUDY IS IT THAT
YOU ARE REFERRING TO THAT
SUGGESTS THAT PUTTING A WARNING
LABEL NOT A GRAPHIC ONE LIKE-
THIS STUDY SUGGESTS BY WHAT
CITIES ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT
THAT. WHAT WOULD INDICATE THAT A
WARNING LABEL FOR CANNABIS USE
WOULD HAVE ANY EFFECT AT ALL ON.
THE USER. WELL I THINK THAT
FIRST OF ALL IT'S IMPORTANT THAT
PEOPLE GET ACCURATE INFORMATION
ABOUT- BACK CANNABIS AND- EFFECT
ACTUALLY THERE THERE'S DATA TO
SHOW THAT- PEOPLE. ARE NOT
NECESSARILY AWARE OF- BY THE
NAME OF THE ISSUES THAT AFFECT
WILL RAISE BY THE WITNESSES WHO
ARE TESTIFYING IN SUPPORT- WE
ALSO NOTE THAT- THAT BASICALLY
OURSELVES. THE WARNING LABELS
ENSURE THAT- WELL PROVIDE
OPPORTUNITY TO BE SURE THAT THAT
INFORMATION IS PUT IN IS BEFORE
THE USERS IN ADDITION TO OF
COURSE THEY SAID THE THEY HAND
OUT WHICH GOES INTO THAT CAN GO
INTO A LITTLE MORE MORE IN
DEPTH- THE- L. IT THERE IS- THE
REASON LABELING IS A PUT ON
TOBACCO IS BECAUSE- THERE IS OUT
THERE. THERE'S BEEN FOUND TO BE
IN COMBINATION I THINK I SHOULD
MAKE NOTE THAT IN COMBINATION
WITH OTHER EFFORTS EDUCATIONAL
EFFORTS IT DOES HELP- THAT SURE
THAT PEOPLE ARE MORE AWARE OF
THE CHALLENGES AND I WOULD POINT
OUT THAT- THE WELL CERTAINLY
IT'S ILLEGAL FOR SOMEONE TO SELL
CANNABIS TO USE. THAT DOESN'T
STOP AN ADULT FROM POTENTIALLY
PURCHASING- CANNABIS THANK
INCINERATING- THIS PERHAPS
SHARING IT WITH SOMEONE WHO'S
YOUNGER AND. THE CERTAINLY-
LABEL WOULD- INDICATE- PERHAPS
IT MIGHT NOT BE SUCH A GOOD
IDEA- SO THAT- THEY WOULD BE
AWARE OF THE OF THE RISKS THAT.
ARE ASSOCIATED WITH THAT- BUT- I
THINK THAT- ACTUALLY I WOULD
LIKE TO ASK- BY A TECHNICAL
SOMEONE- DUCTAL IN SILVER TO
ADDRESS THE EVIDENCE BASED ON
THE LABEL THAT IF THAT'S IF
THAT'S APPROPRIATE. THAT SURE
CERTAINLY DOCTOR. DOCTOR WHO
THEY'RE WITH CAN YOU RESPOND.
YES MICROPHONE PLEASE. THANK YOU
MISTER CHAIR OF THANK YOU FOR
THE- VERY PERTINENT QUESTIONS
SPECIFICALLY- SENATOR MELENDEZ
IN REGARD TO YOUR QUESTION
THERE'S A LARGE BODY OF RESEARCH
ON WARNING LABELS- FOR TOBACCO-
AND THE BALANCE OF THE EVIDENCE
ON IS THE PICTORIAL WARNING
LABELS ARE MORE EFFECTIVE AND
THAT THESE LARGER PROMINENT OF
ROTATING MESSAGES ARE MORE
EFFECTIVE AT INFLUENCING
CONSUMER BEHAVIOR INTENT TO
CONSUME- AS WELL AS THEIR RECALL
OF INFORMATION. SIMILAR STUDIES
HAVE BEEN DONE FOR CANNABIS BY
GROUPS FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF
TORONTO DAVID HAMMOND AND
OTHERS- AS WELL AS WE HAVE OUR
FIRST PAPER THAT'S BEEN DONE
WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN
THAT'S CURRENTLY UNDER REVIEW
AND WE FOUND THE COMPARING HER
IN CALIFORNIA LABELS TO THESE A
STRONGER MORE PROMINENT
PICTORIAL LABELS ON THE LATTER
WERE. MORE EFFECTIVE- SO THERE'S
A REASONABLE BODY OF EVIDENCE
WHICH IS WHAT THE CASE OF
TOBACCO HAS LED THE FDA TO
ADOPT. THAT APPROACH- IF I COULD
JUST INTERJECT HERE- THE BILL
DOES NOT SUGGEST USING- GRAPHIC
PICTORIAL TYPES OF WARNINGS
CORRECT. DR PANDA'S OR IS THAT
IS YOUR BILL INTEND TO USE
GRAPHIC. PICTURES AS PART OF THE
WARNING. NO OKAY BECAUSE I AND I
DON'T MEAN TO INTERRUPT YOU BUT
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT STUDIES
THAT HAVE BEEN DONE RELATING TO
PICTORIALS AND MORE GRAPHIC
PICTURES WHICH AS I POINTED OUT
IN THE IN THE DRAMA THEY'VE SAID
THAT REALLY HASN'T HAD MUCH OF
AN EFFECT ON PEOPLE EITHER
QUITTING OR NOT STARTING IT AND
IT MAKES THEM THINK ABOUT IT BUT
IT DOESN'T HAVE ANY EFFECT ON
WHETHER THEY CONTINUE. TO ENGAGE
IN THAT BEHAVIOR AND THAT'S WITH
THE GRAPHIC PICTURES SO IN THIS
PARTICULAR CSE- WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT SOMETHING MUCH MORE
SUBDUED AND I'M STRUGGLING TO
SEE WHAT THE- YOU KNOW I GUESS
THE- THE ACTUAL OUTCOME WILL BE.
IF IT DOESN'T HAVE AN EFFECT ON
PEOPLE EVEN WITH GRAPHIC
PICTURES AND THE WAYS THAT. YOU
KNOW TOBACCO CAN HARM PEOPLE SO-
THANK YOU THANK YOU MR CHAIRMAN
THAT'S ALL I HAVE THANK YOU
SENATOR HOLLINGS ANY FURTHER
COMMENTS QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS.
I SEE NO OTHER. MICROPHONES UP.
SO DR PAN WOULD YOU LIKE TO
CLOSE THANK YOU I WAS GONNA ASK
DR SILVER TO MAYBE ADDRESS THE
ABSENCE OF GRAPHIC PICTURES BUT
THAT'S FINE RIGHT- THANKS OVER
WOULD YOU MIND AND I'LL CLOSE.
MISTER CHAIR. THE CLARIFICATION
THE BILL DOES CALL FOR PICTORIAL
WARNING LABELS. SO THE NATURE OF
THOSE. THIS IS NOT SPECIFIED BUT
IT DOES INCLUDE PICTORIAL
WARNING LABELS WHICH ARE
CONSIDERED TO BE THE MOST
EFFECTIVE STANDARD THE RESEARCH
. THANK YOU FOR READING THANK
YOU FOR THE CLARIFICATION.
FORGERS ARE ALL RIGHT THANK YOU
THANK YOU FAIR SAID. AT KERN
LABELS THAT ARE CURRENTLY
REQUIRED UNFORTUNATELY ARE
USUALLY MESS ESPECIALLY WHEN
COMBINED THE MATURITY IS A PROP
COMBINED WITH FUN FILLED FUN
COLORFUL- CHILD APPEALING
PACKAGES LIKE THIS ONE. IN
FLAVORS AND ALTHOUGH THEY MAY
HAVE BEEN SUFFICIENT WHEN THEY
WERE FIRST ENACTED THERE'S GOING
EVIDENCE TO SHOW THAT THEY DO
NOT PROPERLY INFORMED CONSUMERS
OF THE VARIOUS HEALTH RISKS.
THIS MEASURE UP TO FIX THAT SB
TEN NINETY SEVEN ABOUT CONSUMER
SAFETY IN PARTICULAR SAFETY FOR
TEENS YOUNG ADULTS WHO ACTUALLY
ARE LEGALLY ALOWED TO PURCHASE.
AN INFANT DURING PREGNANCY THEIR
BRAINS ARE STILL DEVELOPING AND
IT'S CLEAR SIGNS THAT CANNABIS
CAN HAVE LONG TERM DAMAGING
EFFECTS LIKE IMPOSING ADDITION
MEMORY LOSS. COGNITIVE
IMPAIRMENT AND PSYCHOSIS AS YOU
HEARD FROM THE WITNESSES. ELEVEN
REQUIREMENT SB TEN NINETY SEVEN
ARE BASED ON SCIENCE BUT SCIENCE
SHOWS TO BE EFFECTIVE NOT ONLY
FOR TOBACCO BUT FOR OTHER
SIMILAR WARNING LABELS I DO
APPRECIATE THE COMMENTS FROM THE
OPPOSITION WE MET WITH THEM WE
UNDERSTAND THAT BOTH SIDES WANT
TO ENSURE CONSUMER SAFETY. I'M
COMMITTED TO CONTINUING TO WORK
WITH THEM AND COMMITTEE ON THE
BILL SHOULD ADVANCE TODAY TO

PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTING
TECHNICIANS TO MEET THE GROWING
NEEDS FOR CYCLE FOR
PSYCHOLOGICAL AND NEUROLOGICAL
SERVICES WHILE PROTECTING
CONSUMERS AND PAYERS THESE
TECHNICIANS WOULD OPERATE AS
SERVICING CENTERS FOR THE
PSYCHOLOGIST. ALTHOUGH YOU CAN'T
GO BUT NINETEEN IS PUT SO MUCH
PRESSURE IN THE MEDICAL FIELD
ACROSS THE BOARD THERE'S NO
DOUBT THAT MORE PERSONNEL ARE
NEEDED TO CONTINUE WORKING AND
DOING THE JOB THEY DO THE DEMAND
FOR PSYCHOLOGICAL NEUROLOGICAL
SERVICES HAS BEEN. STEADILY
INCREASING UNFORTUNATELY STATE
STATUTE DOES NOT DEFINE
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND IN THIS
IS THE ISSUE IN THE PRACTICE OF
PSYCHOLOGY AND CREATING
SIGNIFICANT DELAYS INTO AND TO
ACCESS THE PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTING
SERVICES THEY'RE OVERWHELMED
THEY NEED THE HELP. CALIFORNIA
IS ALSO EXPERIENCING A DIRE
SHORTAGE OF MENTAL HEALTH
PROFESSIONALS AND GRAPPLING WITH
MEETING THIS NEED ACCORDING TO
THE HEALTH FOR CENTER AT THE
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN
FRANCISCO- IT'S ON TRACK TO LOSE
AT LEAST ELEVEN PERCENT. OF A
PSYCHOLOGIST IN THE NEXT DEFICIT
DECADE AND THIS IS TOP PRIORITY
AND IT'S BECAUSE OF THE
EXISTENCE OF SUCH SCARCITY.

NOT UNUSUAL FOR THEM TO REQUIRE
ONE TO TWO FULL DAYS OF FOR THE
ADMINISTRATION- OF ADMINISTERING
THE TEST. THE PSYCHOLOGICAL TEST
AND JUST FOR ONE SINGLE PATIENT
SOMETIMES TWO TO THREE DAYS THIS
BILL WOULD ALLOW PSYCHOLOGICAL
TESTING TECHNICIANS TO
ADMINISTER AND SCORE
PSYCHOLOGICAL AND NEUROLOGICAL
TEST UNDER THE DIRECT
SUPERVISION OF THE LICENSE I
COLLEGES. THESE TECHNICIANS
WOULD BE REGISTERED AND WELL
READ REGULATED. BY THE BOARD OF

AND PSYCHOLOGISTS TO UTILIZE
THEIR TIME. MORE EFFICIENTLY AND
MORE PRODUCTIVELY FREEING THEM
PRINT OUT TO ENGAGE IN OTHER
INTERPRETATIONS AND- MEETING
WITH THE PATIENT ONE ON ONE
WHICH IS SO VITAL IN THE SERVICE
OF MENTAL HEALTH THAT REQUIRES
THEIR TIME. AND SKILL SET AS
SUCH AS PROVIDING THE
PSYCHOLOGICAL CYCLE THERAPY AND
REHAB TREATMENTS AND PLANNING
CYCLE EDUCATIONAL SERVICES
ENGAGING IN RESEARCH AND TO
REVISING PSYCHOLOGICAL
ASSOCIATES. WITHOUT EMPLOYING
TECHNICIANS THE MAJORITY OF THE

BOTTLENECK IN SERVICE IMPACTS
INDIVIDUALS LIVING WITH

INCLUDING IN GOES ON ILLINOIS
NORTH CAROLINA ACROSS THE BOARD
THE LATEST IT NEW YORK AND
CONNECTICUT. THE VA THE VETERANS
ADMINISTRATION AND THE

FINALLY ON THIS ISSUE MEETING
THAT PSYCHOLOGIST IN CALIFORNIA
GENERALLY MUST ADMINISTER THEIR
OWN TSK EVEN THOSE THAT ARE
HIGHLY MANUAL LIGHT AND ROUTINE.
THIS CAN TAKE AS MANY HOURS
AFTER ONE TO TWO DAYS PER
PATIENT AND THAT IS FINE BUT I
COULD BE SPENDING INTERPRETING
PATH LEADING UP RESULT IN
PLANNING APPROPRIATE TREATMENTS
FOR THE PATIENTS UNLOCK
THOROUGHLY ESTABLISHING THE
AUTHORITY TO USE BIOLOGICAL

CLEARLY NEEDED. THIS LAW WILL
NOT ONLY SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE

FOLLOWED BY A DOCTOR EGGMAN. I
THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND- SENATOR
ARCHULETA THANK YOU FOR BRINGING
THIS BILL FORWARD I CERTAINLY
AGREE WITH THE- PURPOSE OF TH
BILL WHICH TO CLARIFY A IN IN
THE CODE THAT- THAT PSYCHOLOGIST
CAN USE TECHNICIANS TO HELP THEM
DO TESTING IS DEVELOPED A
BEAUTICIAN OF. THE LIVES MANY
PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTS AND WORK
WITH THE CAUCUS SCHOOL
PSYCHOLOGIST AND A PSYCHOLOGIST
TO DO THOSE. I GUESS THE
QUESTION I HAVE FOR YOU WHICH
IS- IN THE ANALYSIS IS THAT- IN
TERMS OF ACTUALLY HAVING TO
REGISTER THEM ALL WITH. THE
BOARD OF PSYCHOLOGY- IS NOTED
THERE MIGHT BE A OF. YOU KNOW.
HOW MUCH A ONEROUS BUT
BASICALLY. INCREASED EXPENSE AND
ALSO THE- ALSO PERHAPS EVEN
POTENTIALLY LIMITED NUMBER
PEOPLE MIGHT BE DOING THIS SO.
CAN YOU JUST ADDRESS WHAT IN
ALICE'S SAID ABOUT TERMS OF-
REGISTRATION AND- IS THIS
SOMETHING THAT. THESE
TECHNICIANS NEED TO BE
REGISTERED WITH THE BORDERS IT'S
SIMPLY ENOUGH THAT THEY HAVE A
PSYCHOLOGIST WHOSE CERTAIN YOU
KNOW SAYING THAT THEY'RE
SUPERVISING THEM AND THAT THAT
THERE OVERSEEING TO WORK AND
THAT THEY'RE DOING ACCEPTABLE
WORK. THANK YOU I UNDERSTAND
IT'S ALL UNDER SUPERVISION BUT
ALAS THE EXPERT TO- JOIN IN AND
ANSWERED THAT QUESTION FOR ME.
SURE AND HOLLINGER'S HERE AS
WELL TO BE MORE SPECIFIC ON
THAT- I THINK THE FEELING WAS
THAT- WHEN WE HAVE PEOPLE WHO
ARE WORKING WITH PATIENTS- AND
CURRENTLY EVERYBODY WHO THE
BOARD OF PSYCHOLOGY OVERSEES THE
PSYCHOLOGISTS ARE ADDED TO THE
PORTAGE BY CALLING HERE HAVING
RESPONSIBILITY TO. ACT IN A
MAINTAINER LICENSOR AND COMPLY
WITH ALL REGULATIONS TO SOME
PERSON BUYING I'M IF WE'RE GOING
TO PUT IN THE- ANOTHER
PROFESSIONAL- DOWN THERE SHOULD
BE SOME OVERSIGHT BY THE BOARD
OF PSYCHOLOGY FOR EXACTLY HOW
THIS IS DONE I THINK IT'S
SOMETHING THAT. CPA HAS BEEN
WORKING AT WORKING THROUGH- I
DON'T THINK IT WOULD NEED A
LOOKS LIKE A VERY ONEROUS
PROCESS IT LOOKS LIKE AND
THERE'S A CERTAIN AMOUNT. ALL
ETHICS AND CONFIDENTIALITY
EDUCATION IT NEEDS TO BE DONE
WHICH I THINK IS ONLY ARE. YOU
KNOW IN KEEPING WITH WHAT WE
WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOU ARE WHERE
THE PEOPLE WHO WERE WORKING AS
PATIENTS ARE YOU KNOW VERY WELL
OUR PRODUCT OF THE FACT THAT
THEY NEED TO MAINTAIN
CONFIDENTIALITY AND SO ON. AND
THE OVERSIGHT- THE THEY'RE
TRYING TO KIND OF. TO WIN THE
TO- MAKE HOURS- TOOLS HOUR THE
PROVISION OF. PASS INCLUDING- OF
BURKE. FOR CYCLE ARE- I THINK
ARE THINGS THAT ARE. AND WILL BE
RE. CONNECTIONS IS A TO MINISTER
THE STAFF WHEN I WAS- A
PSYCHOLOGY TESTING. AND IN
MICHIGAN I MEAN I BEEN. I'M
GOING TO COURTS WERE I HAVE I
WAS ALREADY PROJECTS. OFFER
CLINICAL. EXTERNAL AND A LOT THE
TOP ARE LEARNED ADDITIONAL
TESTING PRACTICE AND MICE- AND
SO THIS- RED. ARE JUST PUTTING

SORRY I DON'T IT'S AN ALL
PROCESS. APPRECIATE THAT ANSWER
AGAIN IT'S TO SUPPORT YOUR BILL
MOVING FORWARD- I DID EIGHT NO
THAT. WE DO SUNSET RE AND SO
FORTH THE WORK ON OVER BORE. AND
WHETHER THERE'S AN ASSESSOR FOR.
THE THAT TECHNO THEY HAVE TO. DO
MORE REGISTRY SO THINK THE
ISSUES MORE THE BURDEN OF WORK
ON TO THE BOARD AND NECESSITY OF
THAT. FISHER QUA. OF WAS FOR A
GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO BE SUPER. BY
LICENSED. AS WELL SO BUT THAT
YOU CAN CONTINUE WORKING ON
THAT'S REALLY SUPPORT THE BILL
WE TRYING TO DO AND THE- VOTING
FOR THE BILL THANK YOU. THANK
YOU DR GRANT. THEY'RE EGGMAN.
BUT THANK YOU AND THANK YOU TO
CENTER ACTUALLY BRING THIS
FORWARD. AND I GUESS MY
QUESTIONS WERE KIND OF ON THAT
SAME LINE. IT WAS MY
UNDERSTANDING THAT PEOPLE ARE
ALREADY DOING THIS FUNCTION. BUT
WE'RE GOING TO DO NOW IS PUT
SOME REQUIREMENTS ON THEM. TO
GET REGISTERED TO DO THIS
FUNCTION. AND SO I GUESS MY
QUESTION IS IF THERE'S A LACK
OF. WORK FORCE IS INCREASING-
THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS.
WILL THAT WOULD ACTUALLY
INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF FOLKS WE
HAVE HELPING OUT OR DECREASE IT
AND- MY FIRST QUESTION A FEW
QUESTIONS YEAH I THINK IT WILL
INCREASE. AND WHAT IT IS IT IN
STATUTE THAT IT IS NOT
EXPLICITLY SHOWN HOW THE
TECHNICIAN CAN PERFORM. OR EVEN
IF THEY CAN. BECAUSE OF THE FACT
THAT IT'S NOT LAW IN SOME OF THE
OTHER STATES WE KNOW THERE IT IS
LAW IN CALIFORNIA IT'S NOT
EXPLICIT. THIS JUST BRINGS IT UP
THIS SHOWS THAT USE A
PSYCHOLOGIST YOU'VE BEEN IN THAT
FIELD. YOU CAN HIRE YOUR
TECHNICIAN TRAINING GUIDE. AND
AS THEY GET CERTIFIED BY THE
ASSOCIATION THEY COULD GO
FORWARD WHAT THAT'S GOING TO DO
IS OPEN UP DOORS FOR THOSE THAT
ARE IN SCHOOL RIGHT NOW AND IN
THE FUTURE. WHO HAVE BEEN
STUDIED PSYCHOLOGY AND AT THE
MASTERS AND SO ON TO ENTER THE
FIELD AND MAYBE NOT BE THE
THERAPIST 1100% BUT- OBVIOUSLY
WOULD BE THE GUIDE THE EIGHT AND
SO ON. AND I I'D BE OUT QUITE
HONESTLY I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT
THE TESTING WOULD GO ON SO LONG.
WHERE THAT PSYCHOLOGIST COULD BE
ALREADY WORKING WITH THE PATIENT
BUT THERE SPENDING SO MUCH TIME
REVIEWING AND- LOOKING AT THE
DOCUMENTS. WHERE THAT TECHNICIAN
COULD HAVE JUST SAT THERE AND
INTERVIEWED QUESTION AFTER
QUESTION AFTER QUESTION AND THEN
TURNED OVER THE RESULTS TO BE
ANALYZED AND THEN IN TURN. THE
PSYCHOLOGIST MEET ONE ON ONE
WITH THE PATIENT AND WHERE THEY
ARE DOING ONE OR TWO A DAY NOW
THAT WOULD IT GO BUT OPEN UP
MORE. IN BECAUSE THE VA IS
ALREADY DOING THIS ISSUE TELLS
ME THAT THERE'S ROOM FOR MORE
AND THIS WILL JUST CLEAR UP
THAT. VAGUENESS ABOUT IT BEING
LEGALLY. ABLE TO BE DONE IN
CALIFORNIA. OKAY N. AND MAYBE TO
THE TO THE WITNESS AS WELL BUT
THERE ARE ALREADY PEOPLE
PERFORMING THIS FUNCTION AS I
UNDERSTAND IT. BUT THE LAW IS
SILENT ON IT SO NOW WE'RE GONNA.
WE'RE GONNA. WE'RE GONNA CREATE
A LAW AND THEREBY ALSO CREATE
THE SUPERVISION AND- THE
REGISTRATION AND THE LICENSE IF
YOU WILL TO REGISTRATION. AND
THEN WHO'S IN CHARGE IS THAT THE
IS THE PSYCHOLOGIST IN IN CHARGE
OF. IS IT A ONE TIME
REGISTRATION IS IT ONGOING IS
THERE. THE C. E. IZARD A
GRADUATION OR IS IT JUST A
REGISTRATION AND THEN THAT
PERSON IS READY TO GO AND HOW IS
THAT DIFFERENT NOW. DESPITE JUST
BEING REGISTERED. AND ALL THAT
THE EXPERT- ENSURE THAT ONE.
THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION
CENTER CALLS WERE AS- WITH THE
CALIFORNIA PSYCHOLOGICAL
ASSOCIATION SO THIS IS SOMETHING
WE'VE ACTUALLY BEEN WORKING ON
WITH THE BOARD OF PSYCHOLOGY ON
TO THE FIRST PART YOUR QUESTION
THAT'S A GREAT POINT- WE DON'T
ACTUALLY TRACK WHO IS DOING THIS
WORK RIGHT NOW BECAUSE OUR-
CHIEF- CHIEF ORGANIZATION THAT.
DEALS WITH OUR OVERSIGHT DOESN'T
ACTUALLY TRACKED INFORMATION WE
DON'T HAVE ANYTHING MORE THAN
ANECDOTAL WE KNOW. THAT SOME VA
CLINICS USE THEM. AND THERE IS
SOME YEARS IN ACADEMIC SETTINGS
BUT AS TERMS OF WIDESPREAD USE
WE DO NOT BELIEVE THAT TO BE THE
CASE- I AS THE SECOND POINT WE
ARE WORKING CLOSELY WITH THE
BOARD OF PSYCHOLOGY ON
DEVELOPING AMENDMENTS THAT WE
LOOK ON TAKING AS THE BILL
MOVES. THAT WOULD STREAMLINE THE
CONTINUING EDUCATION PROCESS IN
LINE WHAT WE DO FOR LICENSEES.
ARE CREATING AN ANNUAL
REGISTRATION PROCESS INCLUDING-
INTAKE FORMS FOR LIFE SCANNED
AND OTHER REQUIREMENTS MAKE OF
LICENSEES- BUT ALSO ESTABLISHING
A PROCESS BY WHICH INDIVIDUALS
WHO OVERSEEING- ADEQUATE
TRAINING AND EDUCATION AND OTHER
STATES- MAY HAVE AN INTAKE
PROCESS SO THEY CAN ALSO
PRACTICE IN CALIFORNIA WE ALSO
LOOK FORWARD TO TAKING.
AMENDMENTS WORKING WITH THE
BOARD PSYCHOLOGY AND OBVIOUSLY
WITH COMMITTEE WHO HAS DONE A
GREAT WORK ON THIS BILL SO FAR.
SO THAT ONCE WE DO GET FOLKS IN
THE HOPPER. WHO WILL BE ABLE TO
GET THOSE TECHNICIANS. ON THE
JOB TRAINING AS PART OF THEIR
KERR- IS PART OF THEIR EIGHTY
HOURS OF REQUIRED TRAINING
PROCESSES. IT THE CHAIR I CAN
ASK SO IT IN THE REQUIREMENTS IS
A BACHELOR'S DEGREE IT DOESN'T
IT DOESN'T SPECIFY ANY. TYPE OF
BACHELORS. YES IT DOES SO IN THE
BILL AND THANK YOU FOR THE
QUESTION CENTER THE BILL.
REQUIRES AT LEAST A BACHELOR'S
IN PSYCHOLOGY OR RELATED FIELD
SO OBVIOUSLY THAT WOULD BE IN
LINE WITH THE SOCIAL WORK
MARRIAGE AND FAMILY THERAPY- BUT
IT DOES REQUIRE A BACHELOR'S
DEGREE IN A- MENTAL HEALTH
RELATED- DEGREE. IT CAN ALSO BE
A MASTERS AS WELL THAT'S IN THE
STATUTE BUT AT LEAST A MINIMUM
OF BACHELOR'S DEGREE. THANK YOU. COLLEAGUES ANY OTHER QUESTIONS
. WELL LET ME ASK A COUPLE I'M
I'M A LITTLE UNCLEAR DID I HEAR
YOU TO SAY THAT WE DON'T KNOW
HOW MANY TESTING TAX ARE UP
THERE. IN CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGISTS
OFFICES. ASSISTING THE CLINICAL
PSYCHOLOGIST. AT MISS HERE I'M
NOT AWARE THAT THERE'S ANY THAT
WILL ADMIT TO THAT FACT BUT I'LL
LET AGAIN THE EXPERT TO ANSWER
THAT WHOSE- AS A PULSE ON. THANK
YOU MISTER CHAIR- COLLINS WORSE
AGAIN SO NONE OF OUR MEMBERS-
WHEN WE'VE HAD DISCUSSIONS OVER
SEVERAL YEARS ON THIS ITEM
INTERNALLY- WE DON'T KNOW OF
ANYONE THAT ACTUALLY USES
TECHNICIANS BECAUSE WE HAVE HAD
PRETTY CLEAR DIRECTION FROM A
REGULATORY BOARD THAT. THIS
PRACTICE IS NOT ALLOWED UNDER
LAW- BUT THAT'S NOT THAT'S
CONTRARY TO THE ANALYSIS YOU
UNDERSTAND WELL I CAN'T SPEAK TO
THE ANALYSIS TAKE HOWEVER I WILL
SAY THE BOARD OF PSYCHOLOGY AND
THE CALIFORNIA PSYCHOLOGICAL
ASSOCIATION. HAVE BEEN PRETTY
CLEAR WITH OUR MEMBERSHIP- THAT
THE USAGE OF THESE TECHNICIANS
IS WE DON'T SEE AS BEING
PERMITTED UNDER THE LAW- I DON'T
KNOW IF THERE ARE OTHERS WHO DO
USED TECHNICIANS- IF THAT
INFORMATION IS OUT THERE IT'S
ANECDOTAL- BUT THE BOARD OF
PSYCHOLOGY NOR CPA COLLECT ANY
INFORMATION OTHER USE
TECHNICIANS. WITH THE FACT THAT
YOU DON'T COLLECTED DOESN'T MEAN
THAT THEY'RE NOT IN USE CORRECT.
IT IS ENTIRELY POSSIBLE CENTER I
CAN'T SPEAK TO ALL THE
PRACTICING PSYCHOLOGISTS HOWEVER
I WILL SAY THE FOLKS IN OUR
NEUROPSYCHOLOGY DIVISION OF
WHICH- DOCUMENT MULLIN IS A
MEMBER- WE DO NOT KNOW OF ANYONE
WHO IS ACTIVELY. THESE FOLKS
WITHIN THE PRACTICE. WITHIN THE
LAST AT LEAST HALF DECADE. SO
WITH RESPECT TRANSACTION
EDUCATION. GO AHEAD PLEASE
STEPANEK FALLING APART I JUST
WANTED TO JUMP IN THE YOU KNOW
CONTRAST THIS WITH HOW THINGS IN
OTHER STATES IF IT WAS IF I AND
MY COLLEAGUES VIEWED US AS BEING
ACCEPTABLE FROM THE BY THE BOARD
AND LEGAL- I WOULD ALREADY BE
USING ONE- WHEN I WAS IN ANOTHER
STATE I WAS USING ONE IT MAKES
THE PRACTICE SO MUCH MORE
EFFICIENT BUT IT'S HIGHLY
DESIRABLE THAT WE COULD USE ONE.
BUT IN CALIFORNIA IT'S- IT'S
CLEAR THAT- AT LEAST THE-PERCEPTION ON WHAT WE'VE BEEN
TOLD BY REPORTERS THIS IS NOT
SOMETHING THAT- IT IS- IS TO BE
DONE IN CALIFORNIA AND THAT'S
WHY WE NEED TO CLARIFICATION ON.
IT WILL JUST NEED TO SCALE
HERE'S MY HERE'S MY PROBLEM I
HAVE A PROBLEM WITH USING THE
LICENSE REGISTRATION.
RECOGNITION PROCESS. WHERE IT'S
NOT AB REQUIRE BECAUSE IS THE
ANALYSIS OF DATA. AND I FOR
BELIEVE. THESE RULES THAT WE PUT
IN PLACE- CAN SERVE AS A BARRIER
TO EMPLOYMENT AND THEY'RE A
BARRIER TO EMPLOYMENT. VERY MUCH
FOR THE FOR THE PIECES IN
PORTIONS OF THE POPULATION THAT
WE OFTEN CARED THE MOST AND
FIGHT THE MOST FOR. HERE IN THIS
FLOOR THE DISADVANTAGED AND
THOSE WHO COME. FROM COMMUNITIES
OF COLOR. AND SO I REALLY TAKE A
LOOK AT THESE REQUIREMENTS IN
THESE REQUESTS FOR REGISTRATION
OR RECOGNITION. OF VERY
SERIOUSLY FOR EXAMPLE THE
REQUIREMENT FOR A BACHELOR'S
DEGREE WAS THAT YOU ALL ARE
CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGISTS AND- IN
AND HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS WAS
THAT VALIDATED IN SOME WAY BY A
STUDY. IN OTHER WORDS WHAT TASKS
ARE THESE TESTING TAX GOING TO
PERFORM. THAT WOULD REQUIRE
NECESSARILY A BACHELOR'S DEGREE
IN PSYCHOLOGY AND IS IT A DEGREE
IN SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY IS IT A
DEGREE AND- IN THE OTHER
DISCIPLINES WITHIN THE
PSYCHOLOGY FIELD AND IF SO WHY.
MISTER MISTER CHAIRMAN GO AHEAD-
DOCUMENT MULLIN. I WOULD SAY
THAT AND THE REASON THAT TAX IN
THERE IS THAT SOMETHING THAT
SORT OF STANDARD ACROSS THE
COUNTRY THEN IT'S BEEN
RECOMMENDED BY OUR PROFESSIONAL
ORGANIZATIONS SUCH AS THE
NATIONAL ECONOMY AND KNOWS THE
COLLEGES THAT- ACTUALLY
TECHNICIANS ARE HAVE A
BACHELOR'S DEGREE AND BE TRAINED
UP BY THE PSYCHOLOGY I THINK
YOU'RE A STRAPLESS THING- YOU
KNOW SENATE MINIMUM
QUALIFICATIONS AND- YOU KNOW I
DON'T SEE IT. AS A BARRIER TO
OUR- HI THIS IS THE BILL
ACTUALLY ON- LIKE TO THE NUMBER
OF JOBS IN. HEALTH BECAUSE IT'LL
BE MORE PEOPLE THIS THIS POINT.
IF THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT ARE
USING TACTIC TESTING TECHNICIANS
ADDITION A VERY SMALL PERCENTAGE
OF WHAT WILL BE AND WHAT WILL
END UP HAPPENING IF- IF AND
WHEN. THE BILL PASSES AND LOOKED
IN THE STATUS OF TESTING
TECHNICIANS IS CLARIFIED BECAUSE
WITH DISAPPOINTING. YOU KNOW I
WOULD. MENTION CLARIFIED I WOULD
DEFINITELY- YOU KNOW ADVERTISED.
TO HIRE IS TESTING TECHNICIAN I
WOULD GET FROM MY EMPLOYER TO DO
SO I'M AND I THINK A LOT OF
PLACES WHERE THERE'S JUST A MUCH
MORE EFFICIENT WAY OF DOING
BUSINESS AND SO I THINK IT WOULD
GENERALLY INCREASE THE NUMBER OF
PEOPLE. DOING THIS WORK WELL YOU
KNOW IN THE EMPLOYMENT FIELD.
FIFTY PRETTY CAREFUL ABOUT HOW
WE SET QUALIFICATIONS BECAUSE IF
YOU SET THE QUALIFICATION OF A
BACHELOR'S DEGREE FOR EXAMPLE.
WITHOUT DIRECTLY TYING IT TO THE
SKILLS THAT ARE NECESSARY TO DO
THE JOB. THAT'S A PROBLEM
BECAUSE AT LEAST HISTORICALLY IT
TENDS TO DISCRIMINATE. AGAINST
MINORITIES AND PEOPLE OF COLOR.
AND THAT'S WHY AS MIKE. WITH
RESPECT TO YOUR BROTHER DEGREE
REQUIRED. HAVE YOU HAD ANY
COMPLY WITH AS I'M ASSUME SOME
AROUND SOME IS BEEN ASSISTING A
CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST SOMEWHERE
IN CONDUCTING TESTS NOT
INTERPRETING THEM BUT CONDUCTING
THEM. HAVE THERE BEEN ANY
COMPLAINTS ANY COMPLAINTS OF
HARM ADDRESSED TO THE BOARD AS A
RESULT OF A TESTING TAX
SOMEWHERE. OR WHATEVER WE WANT
TO CALL IT AN INTERN OR A
PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSISTANT-
CONDUCTING THESE TESTS WHERE.
ADDITIONAL OVERSIGHT WOULD BE
CALLED FOR. I THANK YOU FOR THE
QUESTION MISTER CHAIR WE HAVE-
IN CONVERSATION FOR PSYCHOLOGY
NOT RECEIVED ANY OF THAT
INFORMATION. WELL THEN I HAVE
ANOTHER ONE AND I'LL TY TO WRAP
IT UP- WHAT HAPPENS IF YOUR
WRONG. AND THERE ARE TESTING
TECHS OUT THERE. IN THE GREAT
STATE OF CALIFORNIA ASSISTING.
PSYCHOLOGIST IN THE PERFORMANCE
OF THEIR DUTY TO MAKE THEIR WORK
DAY MORE EFFICIENT AND I'M-
FULLY SUPPORTIVE OF THAT. WHO
DON'T MEET THESE REQUIREMENTS A
BACHELOR'S DEGREE OR GRADUATE
DEGREE IN PSYCHOLOGY. EIGHTY
HOURS OF TRAINING AND ON AND ON
BUT HAVE BEEN PERFORMING THE
DUTIES. OF THEIR POSITION FOR
TEN FIFTEEN OR TWENTY YEARS. IS
THERE SOME PROVISION IN THIS.
BILL THAT WOULD ALLOW THOSE
INDIVIDUALS TO BECOME.
GRANDFATHERED SO THEY ARE
GRANDFATHERED WHATEVER THE
PROPER TERM IS THESE DAYS SO
THAT THEY COULD CONTINUE TO
PERFORM THEIR- THEIR JOBS
WITHOUT. UNDUE INTERFERENCE WITH
THEIR ABILITY TO GENERATE A WAGE
. YES THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION
MISTER CHAIR- PART OF THE WHAT
WE LOOK FORWARD TO ON THIS BILL
AS IT MOVES IS WORKING WITH ALL
OF OUR STAKEHOLDERS ACROSS THE
ENTIRE CONTINUUM OF HEALTHCARE
DELIVERY IN MENTAL HEALTH CARE
DELIVERY TO FIND OUT IF THERE
ARE THOSE INDIVIDUALS OUT THERE-
WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON- EXTERNAL
MESSAGING TO MAKE SURE THAT IF
THOSE FOLKS ARE IN PRACTICE THEY
CAN REACH OUT TO US. WE ARE
ABSOLUTELY AMENABLE TO WORKING
ON TECHNICAL AMENDMENTS THAT
WOULD GRANDFATHER IN INDIVIDUALS
WITH A CERTAIN BASE LEVEL OF
EDUCATION AND TRAINING OR AS-
MAKES SENSE WITHIN THE CONTEXT
OF THESE NATIONAL STANDARDS- BUT
AS YET WE HAVE NOT HEARD FROM
ANY INDIVIDUAL THAT WOULD BE
PROHIBITED FROM PRACTICING. BY
THE INTRODUCTION AND PASSAGE OF
THIS BILL I STILL THINK YOU NEED
YOU MAY NEED TO TAKE A LOOK. AT
THE STANDARDS THAT YOU PLUGGED
INTO THE BILL IF YOU'RE NOT ABLE
TO ARTICULATE WHY YOU'VE PICKED.
A BACHELOR'S DEGREE WHY YOU'VE
PICKED A CERTAIN NUMBER OF HOURS
AND INSTEAD OF SIMPLY INCLUDED
THEM BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT SOME
OTHER STATE DID I THINK. WE
PROBABLY. MAYBE MORE EXACTING IN
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE
WAY WE SET OUR STANDARDS. I'M
GOING TO BE SUPPORTING THE BILL-
OF WE HAPPY TO WORK WITH THE
AUTHOR. AS HE MOVES A BILL
FORWARD I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT WE'RE NOT STRANDING.
WORKERS ANYWHERE BY SETTING NEW
STANDARDS AND NOT PROVIDING. FOR
A PATHWAY WERE OFFERING UP FOR
THOSE WORKERS TO. CONTINUE TO DO
WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN DOING FOR
WHATEVER PERIOD OF TIME THEY'VE
BEEN DOING IT. SENATOR MELENDEZ
THANK YOU SO MUCH MISTER
CHAIRMAN- I JUST WANT TO. GO
BACK TO SOMETHING THAT WAS JUST
SAID WITH RESPECT TO-
GRANDFATHERING IN. THOSE WHO MAY
ALREADY BE DOING THIS- TYPE OF
WORK YOU SAID THAT. YOU ARE WORD
I MEAN A BOWL TO MAKING SOME
AMENDMENTS PERHAPS DOWN THE ROAD
PROVIDED THAT THESE INDIVIDUALS
HAD THE MINIMUM EDUCATION
REQUIREMENTS WHICH TO ME SAYS
THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE SO THEN
THEY WOULDN'T BE GRANDFATHERED
IN UNLESS. THEY YOU KNOW IT'S
KIND OF THERE'D THEIR STOCK CAN
YOU JUST GO BACK TO THAT PLEASE
CERTAINLY SO I WHEN I WAS TRYING
TO REFERENCE IS NOT NECESSARILY
A MINIMUM OF BACHELOR'S DEGREE
BUT- TO ESTABLISH SOME MINIMUM
STANDARD FOR FOLKS WHO MAY BE
DOING THIS WORK SOMEWHERE. OUT
IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA TO
DETERMINE WHAT AN APPROPRIATE
MINIMUM STANDARD WOULD BE
ALONGSIDE OR LIKE YOU- REGULATOR
AND THE COMMITTEES OF BOTH THE
ASSEMBLY AND SENATE BUSINESS
PROFESSIONS COMMITTEE SO I
WASN'T ATTEMPTING TO. MAKE A
STATEMENT THAT IT HAD TO BE OUR
MINIMUM STANDARDS BUT IF THEY
ARE OUT THERE PRACTICING WE
WOULD NEED TO ESTABLISH SOME
MINIMUM FROM GRANDFATHER OKAY
THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING THAT
BECAUSE I'M- I FEEL FAIRLY
CONFIDENT THAT WE DO HAVE
INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE ALREADY
PERFORMING. THESE TASKS IN
CALIFORNIA AND I WOULD HATE TO.
BE PARTY TO A BILL THAT.
ESSENTIALLY CUTS THEM OUT OF
EMPLOYMENT UNLESS THEY GO BACK
TO SCHOOL FOR THEIR- BACHELORS
OR WHATEVER IT IS DETERMINED IS
NECESSARY FOR THIS WORK SAID
THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANK YOU
CERVANTES COLLEAGUES ANY FURTHER

A LOT OF FLOOR'S YOURS

AUTHORS AND- I'M SORRY THE- THE
OF THE CO AUTHORS AS WE ALL COME
TOGETHER THERE'S A DIRE NEED OF
MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS NO
DOUBT. IF THIS WILL OPEN UP SOME

MAKE IT SUCCESSFUL AT THE END
