MR SECRETARY PLEASE READ THE
BILL TO FIFTEEN BY SENATOR BILL
AND ACKLINGTON DIVERSION.
SENATOR BELL.
THE MORNING MADAM PRESIDENT
MEMBERS SO I'M PLEASED TO
PRESENT SP TWO FIFTEEN.
.
THIS IS.
A BILL THAT WOULD SAVE MONEY.
AT LEAST A THIRD OF THE
CALIFORNIA JAILS AND PRISONS
SUFFER FROM MENTAL.
IN MAY SUFFER FROM A MENTAL
ILLNESS.
THE JAILS ARE UNEQUIPPED TO
ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF THOSE
SUFFERING.
FOR MENTAL ILLNESS.
I BITE ANYBODY TO TOUR. OF LOS
ANGELES COUNTY.
JAIL AND THEY WILL QUICKLY SEE
WHAT I'M SAYING.
THE STATUS QUO IS COSTLY
INEFFECTIVE UNFAIR AND
DANGEROUS.
AND WE WE.
S MEMBERS NEED TO INTERVENE.
NOW WE BEGUN OUT WORK. LAST YEAR
ON THIS ISSUE WORKING CLOSELY
WITH THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S WE
NOW HAVE A BILL. THAT HAS
BIPARTISAN SUPPORT. AND NO
OPPOSITION.
THE BILL ALLOWS BUT DOES NOT
REQUIRE A TRIAL COURT.
TO PLACE A QUALIFYING LOW LEVEL
DEFENDED. IN A PRE EXISTING
MENTAL HEALTH PROGRAM.
VERSION WOULD NOT BE AUTOMATIC.
THE BILL REQUIRES. THE DEFENSE
TO SHOW THAT THE. PROSECUTORS.
THAT DEFENSE WAS CAUSED BY THE
MENTAL ILLNESS.
IT ALSO HAS TO SECURE THE
TREATMENT THAT IS AVAILABLE
INAPPROPRIATE.
THE BILL RESULT IN COST SAVINGS
AT THE STATE AND LOCAL LEVEL. BY
MAKING MOST OF THE TREATMENT
OPTIONS.
WE HAVE IN OUR COMMUNITIES
AND MAKING ALL OF THOSE OPTIONS
AVAILABLE INSTEAD OF PUTTING
PEOPLE IN JAIL OR PRISON.
THIS ADDRESSES THE NEEDS OF THE
POPULATION SU MEDICAL AND
SECURITIES MAY NEEDS ACTUALLY
MAKE THEM MORE EXPENSIVE TO
INCARCERATE.
AFTER INCARCERATION A PERSON
WITH UNTREATED MENTAL ILLNESS IS
MORE LIKELY TO REQUIRE THE USE
OF EXPENSIVE. COUNTY EMERGENCY
SERVICES.
SUCH AS HOSPITALIZATION OR
AMBIENCE
IN THE FUTURE.
ALSO A CRIMINAL RECORD MEANS
THAT ARE LESS LIKELY TO FIND
EMPLOYMENT OR HOUSING IN THE
FUTURE. INCREASING THE
LIKELIHOOD THAT THESE DEFENDANTS
WILL RELY ON STATE OR LOCAL
ASSISTANCE.
THIS BILL WILL GIVE US A CHANCE.
TO CONNECT DEFENDANTS WITH
TREATMENT.
TREATMENT WILL GIVE US BETTER
RESULTS THAN INCARCERATION.
IT WILL REDUCE COSTS TO THE
STATE.
COUNTY AND COMMUNITY.
RESEARCH SHOWS THAT DIVERSION
PARTICIPANTS HAVE ARE EXTREMELY
LOW RATE OF RE OFFENDING.
THE VERSION WORKS AND SAVES
MONEY TO CARE ABOUT JUSTICE
COMMUNITY SAFETY AND WISE USE OF
OUR RESOURCES.
POLICE SUPPORT.
SP TWO FIFTEEN. THANK YOU.
THANK YOU CENTER BELL MEMBERS
WILL NOW MOVE TO DISCUSSION AND
DEBATE THUNDERSTONE.
GOOD MORNING THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT OF MEMBERS.
AS A PROD CO AUTHOR I RISE IN
SUPPORT OF THIS BILL AND ONCE
AGAIN APPLAUD MY COLLEAGUE
SENATOR BELFORT HIS STRONG
ADVOCACY FOR. TREATING THOSE
WITH A MENTAL ILLNESS.
INDIVIDUALS A MENTAL ILLNESS ARE
NOT RECEIVING THE HELP THAT THEY
NEED IMPRISONED OR LOCAL JAILS
PRISONS ARE CROWDINGWITH MORE
MORE INDIVIDUALS THAT REQUIRE
MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT. THIS
BILL KEEP CERTAIN CRIMES
UNAVAILABLE TO DIVERSION UNDER
THE DISCRETION OF THE
PROSECUTION SUCH AS DRIVING
UNDER THE INFLUENCE MANSLAUGHTER
UNLAWFUL USE OF A FIREARM CHILD
ENDANGERMENT OR SEXUAL RELATED
CRIMES. THIS BILL PLACES THE
CHECKS THAT ARE NEEDED TO FILTER
OUT THOSE THAT ARE SUFFERING
FROM MENTAL HEALTH. ISSUES AND
THOSE SEEKING TO AVOID PRISON
FOR THOSE REASONS I RESPECTFULLY
ASK YOUR EYEBALLS.
THANK YOU SENATOR STONE SENATOR
NIELSEN.
MADAM PRESIDENT LADIES AND
GENTLEMAN THE SENATE AYE RISES A
CO AUTHOR TO.
SUPPORT THIS MEASURE.
IT HAS BEEN CAREFULLY WORKED ON
WITH THE DA'S ASSOCIATION
PARTICULARLY.
AND SENATE ARE A GOOD SENATOR
SANTA CLARA HAS A BIT OF A REAL
LEADER AND THESE MENTAL HEALTH
ISSUES.
INDEED TREATMENT IS BETTER DONE
IN THE COMMUNITY AND THERE MUST
BE SOME SUPERVISION OF COURSE.
BUT ONE OF THE IMPORTANT.
NEEDS IN THIS BILL WAS TO
ENSURE THAT THE DISTRICT
ATTORNEY'S WERE NOT PRO
PRECLUDED FROM.
REFERRING AND END OF OUR AT
FOUR.
TRYING TO. PUT A PERSON IN AS A
MENTALLY DISORDERED OFFENDERS MD
ALL.
THERE'S A THAT'S A CIVIL
PROCEEDING WHEREBY THE
INDIVIDUAL BECAUSE THEY ARE IN
NEED OF TREATMENT THAT IS NOT
AVAILABLE IN THE COMMUNITY AND
THEY YET REMAIN OF RISK OF
DANGER TO SOCIETY THEMSELVES AND
OTHERS.
THEY CAN GO FOR A AND INTO A
CAVE IN CHAMBER. TRIAL OR A JURY
TRIAL.
AT TO DECIDE WHETHER OR NOT THAT
INDIVIDUAL SHOULD BE RETAINED IN
CUSTODY. FOR TWOYEARS SENATOR
NIELSEN MAY INTERRUPT YOU FOR
MOMENT COMMITTEE AT THE BACK OF
THE GALLERY TO QUIET DOWN A BIT
MEMBERS THANK YOU. CENTER
NIELSEN PLEASE RECEIVE LIKE YOU.
SO THAT'S AN IMPORTANT TO.
IF THAT INDIVIDUAL WOULD YET
REMAIN A THREAT. AND THAT'S
BASED ON THE DIAGNOSIS OF
LICENSED PROFESSIONALS AS WELL
AS THE RE OF THE CASE BY THE
DISTRICT ATTORNEY AND THE BOARD
PRISON TERMS AS I. HEADED LONG
TIME AGO.
THAT HAS BEEN ADDRESSED IN THE
BILL AND I THINK THAT'S ONE OF
THE REASONS THAT THE. FDA'S
ASSOCIATION.
HAVE REMOVED ANY OPPOSITION.
BUT KEEP IN MIND ONE OF OUR
LIMITING FACTORS.
THE STATE. MEANING THE
LEGISLATURE ADMINISTRATION HAVE
DUMPED
THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF
MENTALLY ILL INDIVIDUALS.
INTO OUR COMMUNITIES.
AND THAT'S KIND OF OVERWHELMING.
THE TREATMENT CAPABILITIES WE
HAVE POSSESS NOT BEEN BOOST.
BUT WITH THAT CAVEA. I TOTALLY
AGREE THAT THE INDIVIDUALS THAT.
ARE SENATOR FROM SANTA CLARA IS.
POINTING AT HERE WOULD BENEFIT
FROM THIS DIVERSION. AND
DIVERSIONS HAS INDEED WORKED.
IN AREAS THAT PROTECT CLEEF OF
FOR OUR MILITARY INDIVIDUALS.
FOR THOSE WITH SUBSTANCE ABUSE
PROBLEMS.
SO IT IS A GOOD ALTERNATIVE.
THIS IS A POSITIVE STEP. AND I
URGE AND I VOTE.
THANK YOU SENATOR NIELSEN
SENATOR WIENER.
THANK YOU.
MADAME OF PRESIDENT I I WANNA
THANK ALL OF THE AUTHOR FOR HIS.
PERSISTENCE AND PERSEVERANCE IN
MOVING THIS BILL.
FORWARD THIS IS A LONG OVERDUE
REFORM AYE WHICH ACKNOWLEDGES
THE REALITY THAT WHEN PEOPLE.
COMMIT CRIMES.
.
BECAUSE OF THE MENTAL ILLNESS
ARE WERE A MENTAL HEALTH ISSUE
IS ONE OF THE SIGNIFICANT
FACTORS LEADING THOUGHTS ABOUT
BEHAVIOR.
WE SHOULD SERIOUSLY CONSIDER.
OF WHETHER THAT PERSON SHOULD BE
DIVERTED INTO MENTAL HEALTH. OP
PROGRAM AS OPPOSED TO SIMPLY
INCARCERATED.
WHEN YOU INCARCERATE SOMEONE
WHO IS MENTALLY ILL.
YOU REALLY RISK.
EXACERBATING THE SITUATION THE
PERSON MAY CALM NOW.
IN A WORSE STATE THAN WHEN THEY
WENT IN.
WE NEED DO EVERYTHING IN OUR
POWER FOR PEOPLE WHO WERE AT
MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES.
AS WELL AS PEOPLE WHO WERE HURT.
TO DRUGS
I TRY TO TO TREAT IT AS A HEALTH
ISSUE.
AS OPPOSED TO CRIMINAL ISSUE
NOW TO BE CLEAR.
THIS BILL AYE AYES HAS BEEN
NOTED GIVES THE COURT DISCRETION
NO COURT WILL BE FORCED TO
DIVERT SOMEONE. AYE ALOT OF THE.
COURTS A RECENT SYSTEM INTO
MENTAL HEALTH PROGRAM BY COURTS
WILL BE EMPOWERED. OUGHT TO
CONSIDER WHETHER TO DO SO SO
THIS BILL IS A VERY GOOD BILL.
THE LONG OVERDUE REFORM.
AND I URGE DRIVE GO.
THANK YOU SENATOR WIENER SENATOR
GAINES.
THANK YOU AMEND PRESIDENT.
AND.
MEMBERS THAT I WANT TO THANK
SENATOR BILL FOR BRINGING THIS
LEGISLATION FORWARD AND.
WE'VE GOT TO.
.
A LONG WAY TO GO IN TERMS OF
ADDRESSING MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES.
EVEN IN CALIFORNIA AND I KNOW
IN MANY WAYS FOR A FOUR RUNNER.
BUT.
WHEN WE TAKE A LOOK AT THE
ISSUES IN SOCIETY AND HOW
DIFFICULT IT IS TO GET MENTAL
HEALTH SERVICES.
AS ISSUES ARISING SAY WITHIN A
FAMILY.
AND TRYING TO FIND THE RIGHT
DOCTOR. ARE OR THE RIGHT.
PRESCRIPTION.
.
OR THE RIGHT COVERAGE.
THROUGH OUR INSURANCE PLANS.
IT'S A VERY DIFFICULT PATH AND
I THINK JOB. I APPLAUD THIS BILL
FOR MOVING FORWARD.
BUT IT'S ADDRESSING AN ISSUE
AFTER SOMETHING HAS ALREADY
OCCURRED.
AND.
.
WE NEED TO BE I THINK A LITTLE
BIT MORE PROACTIVE IN THE FUTURE
IN TERMS OF. WHAT SERVICE
SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE BACK CAN
MAKE MORE INDIVIDUALS WITH
MENTAL ILLNESS?
PRODUCTIVE.
IN SOCIETY AND.
THAT'S OF A VERY DOABLE
ACHIEVABLE GOAL.
NOT AN EASY ONE.
BUT A CLEAR ONE AND SO I. JUST
WANT TO.
LIFT UP CENTER BILL BELL FOR
BRINGING THIS FORWARD AND AND
FULL SUPPORT THE BILL THANK YOU.
THANK YOU CENTER GAINES SENATOR

HOW YOU SLICE START OFF BY
DOING A QUICK SHOUT OUT TO THE
AUTHOR FROM SAN IS A?
HE HAS BEEN LASER FOCUS FOR AS

FOCUSED ON HELPING THOSE WITH
MENTAL ILLNESS
AND THIS IS YET ANOTHER EXAMPLE
OF. OF REACHING OUT IN HELPING
THOSE IN OUR COMMUNITY WHO
PERHAPS DIDN'T SHOW ANY SIGNS OF
MENTAL ILLNESS UNTIL THEY RAN
AFOUL OF THE LAW. AND THIS GIVES
US A CHANCE NOT TO JUST TO
PUNISH THOSE PEOPLE PUT TO
CHANGE OUR LIVES FOREVER IN A
POSITIVE MANNER.
BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY A PROTECT
SOCIETY MOVING FORWARD BECAUSE
WE KNOW THAT WITH TREATMENT THEY
COULDN'T LIVE NORMAL LIVES PART
AS PRODUCTIVE CITIZENS SO IT'S
REALLY CRUCIAL. THAT WE THINK IN
TERMS OF THE GREATER GOOD OF
SOCIETY AND THAT WERE NOT.
VICTIMIZING MORE PEOPLE BUT

SENATE BILL SEVEN OF FIVE BY
SENATOR ALAN AND TACKLING THE
SOLID WASTE.
SENATOR ALLEN THANK YOU SO MUCH
MADAM PRESIDENT MEMBERS AND
APPRECIATE. THE HELP OF THE OF
THE MEMBERS TO THIS BILL YOU MAY
RECALL I THAT SEEKS TO REDUCE
REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF TOXIC WASTE
THAT POLLUTES OUR BEACHES OUR
OCEANS. INLAND WATERWAYS THAT
JOKES ARE LANDFILLS LEADERS ARE
COMMUNITIES.
BY ULTIMATELY PHASING OUT POLY
STYRENE TAKE OUT FOOD
CONTAINERS.
AS YOU KNOW I TWENTY FOURTEEN
OUR STATE TOOK THE BOLD STEP. OF
BANNING PLASTIC BAGS AND MANY
FEWER HERE AND TOOK OUT VOTE AND
THEN WITNESSED THE ELECTORATE
OVERWHELMINGLY SUPPORT. THE
BAND.
THIS IS VERY SIMILAR. AND THE
NEXT STEP IN OUR EFFORTS TO CURB
PLASTIC POLLUTION THAT IS
SEVERELY DAMAGING OUR OCEAN IN
OUR SHORELINES.
LIKE BAGS WERE. PLACED ARMY FROM
FOOD CONTAINERS ARE A MAJOR
COMPONENT. OF IRVINE LITTER AND
THEY OFTEN WIND UP IN WATER WAYS
CLOCKING MUNICIPAL STORM DRAINS
POLLUTING BASE EVENTUALLY ENDING
UP IN THE OCEAN WITH A. WHICH
TOXINS INTO THE WATER AND I
KNOW.
.
SENATOR. YOU WE'VE WORKED QUITE
A BIT ON STORM DRAIN POLLUTION
ISSUES IN OUR CITIES OUR CITIES
HAVE ENORMOUS LIABILITIES
ASSOCIATED WITH THAT AND AND
THIS IS ANOTHER. STEP TO TRY TO.
HELP OUR CITIES.
JUST LIKE BAGS THIS LETTER IS
COSTING THE GOVERNMENT'S
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN CLEANUP
COSTS EVERY YEAR SO ONE STUDY
THIS IS FUNDING FOR FOLKS TO
CONSIDER.
ONE STUDY FOUND THAT OUR LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS THIS IS OUR.
OUR OUR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ARE
STRUGGLING TO PROVIDE SOCIAL
SERVICES AND SERVICES FOR FOLKS.
MASON BAND.
FOUR HUNDRED TWENTY EIGHT
MILLION DOLLARS EVERY YEAR TO
PREVENT LITTER IN STREETS AND
STORM DRAINS AND A BIG PORTION
OF THAT IS.
THIS POLISH DIARY.
I THINK PART OF WHAT MAKES BY
STATEMENT SO DANGEROUS IS THAT
IT BREAKS APART. VERY EASILY
INTO LIKE NON DEGRADABLE PIECES
AND LIKE PLASTIC BAGGIES POINT
PIECES ARE THEN TRANSPORTED BY
WIND AND RAIN. IN THE POLLUTE
OUR ENVIRONMENT AND THEN AS
ECSTATIC EXPANDED POLYSTYRENE
ENTERS THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT IT
CREATES A TOXIC SOUP OF PLASTIC
PARTICLES THAT THREATENS.
THE BASIC FOOD CHAIN OF THE
OCEAN.
THE OCEAN PROTECTION COUNCIL
ESTIMATES THE CURRENT COST OF
CLEANING UP MARINE DEBRIS.
MANUALLY MAY EXCEED ONE BILLION
DOLLARS.
NOW LIKE BAGS WE TRIED WAS
CLEARLY NOT SUCCESSFUL RECYCLING
PROGRAM.
IT THAT'S TRUE THE POLISH TIRING
CAN BE RECYCLED.
BUT ARE THE THE PROBLEM IS
THAT'S ONLY IF IT'S CLEAN MIGHT
SO. IN THE END THE DAY ONLY ONE
PERCENT OF ALL POLY STYRENE IN
CALIFORNIA IS RECYCLED BECAUSE
THE MAJOR SOURCE WHICH IS FOOD
CONTAMINATED PACKAGING. CANNOT
BE RECYCLED AT ALL WHEN AND WHEN
WHEN YOU HAVE A PIECE OF POLY
STYRENE THAT IS COVERED IN SU
POOR FOOD OR SOME SORT OF SAUCE.
IT CAN'T BE RECYCLED IT'S CLEAN
YOU CAN BUT THE WHOLE POINT OF
TAKE OUT IS THAT IT'S CAN BE
FILLED WITH FOOD.
IN FACT PLACER INJECTION NOW A
BIGGER LITTER PROBLEM THEN BACKS
WERE AT THEIR PEAK IN TWENTY TEN
ACCORDING TO HEAL THE BAY POLY
STYRENE FOAM IS THE THIRD MOST
OMMON SOURCE OF TRASH. WASHING
UP ON LOCAL BEACHES FALLING ONLY
CIGARETTE BUTTS AND SCRAP PIECES
OF HARD PLASTIC.
NOW THE BAG BAND THAT WE PASS
HAS WORKED TO REDUCE THAT SOURCE
OF LITTER FROM TWENTY TEN TO
TWENTY SEVENTEEN WE SEEN A
SEVENTY TWO PERCENT REDUCTION.
IN PLASTIC BAG LITTER.
THAT'S SEVENTY TWO PERCENT LESS
OF THIS TRASH ENDING UP ON OUR
CLOSE LINE OUR SHORELINE IN OUR
OCEAN.
WE CAN DO THE SAME FOR POLY
STYRENE FOOD CONTAINERS OVER ONE
HUNDRED LOCAL JURISDICTIONS UP
AND DOWN THE STATE. HAVE PASSED
MEASURES TO REDUCE POLICY
HEARING POLLUTION IN FACT FIVE
MORE JURISDICTIONS OF ADOPT
BANDS SINCE THIS BILL WAS FIRST
BROUGHT UP. LAST MAY MAJOR
CORPORATIONS LIKE MCDONALD'S
BURGER KING STARBUCKS TARGET
WENDY'S OUR UNIVERSITY SYSTEM
JUST TO NAME A FEW THEY NO
LONGER SERVE FOOD IN PALESTINE
IN CONTAINERS.
I'M JASON THAT MCDONALD'S.
AND IN THE USE OF THE POLY
STYRENE CLAMSHELL CONTAINERS
BACK IN NINETEEN NINETY.
AND THEY'VE BEEN SET THEY'VE
ACTUALLY YOU TO GO BACK TO LOOK
AT THEIR DATA THEY'VE BEEN
SAVING ESTIMATED SIX MILLION
DOLLARS A YEAR. SINCE THEY MOVED
AWAY FROM THESE CLAM SHELLS AND
THEY NOW JUST ANNOUNCED THEY'RE
PHASING OUT ALL PHONE PRODUCTS
GLOBALLY BY TWENTY TWENTY.
NOW WHEN THESE BIGGER CHAINS
MOVE AWAY FROM POLYSTYRENE.
COSTS COME DOWN AS MORE
MANUFACTURERS BEGIN DEVELOPING
ALTERNATIVES AND AFFECT THE
LARGE COMPANIES LIKE OUR
INTERNATIONAL PAPER FULL PACK.
ACTIVE THURMOND AFFECTION
ALTERNATIVES NOW IN PIONEERING.
A NEW TECHNOLOGIES NEW
CONTAINERS THAT ARE COMPARABLY
PRICED AND SOMETIMES EVEN
CHEAPER THIS DIRE FOAM. AND THEY
NOW ACOUNT FOR MORE JOBS IN
CALIFORNIA THEN PHONE FOOD
PACKAGING LET ME JUST REPEAT
THAT THESE NEW ALTERNATIVES IS
MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
FOOD PACKAGING ALTERNATIVES. NOW
ACCOUNT FOR MORE JOBS IN
CALIFORNIA THEN PHONE FOOD
PACKAGING AND THAT TREND OUGHT
TO CONTINUE.
I'VE HEARD FROM SEVERAL VIEW
THAT SPOKEN TO SUCH AS THAT MIKE
MY DEAR COLLEAGUE FROM MY
KENYATTA.
THAT WE NEED TO ENSURE A SMOOTH
TRANSITION FOR SMALL BUSINESSES
THE SWITCHED ALTERNATIVES.
AND THIS BILL GIVES NON CHAIN
RESTAURANTS AND EXTRA TWO YEARS
TO SWITCH OVER TO MORE
SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING IT ALSO
ALLOWS THEM TO APPLY TO THE
LOCAL CITY OR COUNTY FOR
EXEMPTION OF SWITCHING. WOULD
CAUSE A HARDSHIP BUT I CONSTRUED
STAND VERY COMMITTED TO MAKING
SURE THAT AS THIS BILL MOVES
ALONG WE FIGURE OUT WAYS TO HELP
SMALL BUSINESSES IN THE SMALL
MOM AND POPS. EASE THE
TRANSITION.
GIVING THE COST OF CLEANING UP
THIS POLITIC FORM OF POLLUTION
ITS TOXICITY AND THE GROWING
AVAILABILITY ALTERNATIVES
MANUFACTURED RIGHT HERE IN
CALIFORNIA IT'S TIME WE MOVE
AWAY FROM THIS WASTEFUL DAMAGING
PRODUCT. AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK
DR VOTE.
THANK YOU SENATOR ALLEN MEMBERS
WILL MOVE TO DISCUSSION AND
DEBATE SENATOR HUESO.
THANK YOU IN A PRESIDENT AND I
JUST WANT TO THANK THE MEMBER OF
FOR WORKING SO HARD.
ON BEHALF OF THE ENVIRONMENT.
I THINK WE CAN DO THINGS BETTER
I THINK.
THERE'S WAY THAT WE CAN ACT
RESPONSIBLY AND PRODUCE PRODUCTS
THAT ARE RESPECTFUL OF THE
ENVIRONMENT.
BOB I'D INVITED SPORT THIS BILL
BEFORE I THINK THE.
ONE WHEN IT CAME TO FOR FOR.
THE REASON THAT I HAVE A
CONCERNS ARE REGARDING.
YOU KNOW THE JOBS IN THE
BUSINESSES AND.
.
YOU KNOW.
.
THE CONCERNS ABOUT BEEN BROUGHT
UP BY THE WORKERS AS WELL.
BUT.
I LIKE THE DIRECTION IN WHICH
THE AUTHORS MOVIN.
I I WANT TO SUPPORT THIS BILL
LEASE OF TO GIVE THE AUTHOR.
THE OPPORTUNITY TO PUT THIS
BILL.
THROUGH THROUGH THE PROCESS AND
TO GET INPUT FROM OTHER MEMBERS
ARE FROM THE COMMUNITY AND I I'M
VERY CERTAIN.
THAT.
THE OFF THROUGH WORK TO MAKE
THIS BETTER BILL.
I I THINK THIS ISN'T SUCH AN
IMPORTANT ISSUE THAT MERITS.
US WORKING TOGETHER TO COME UP
WITH THE BEST APPROACH BECAUSE
HONESTLY. THERE IS A THERE'S
JUST TOO MUCH PLASTICS.
IN A RIVERS OR LAKES OR OCEANS
OUR BEACHES.
AND IT IS HAVING A DEVASTATING
EFFECT ON WHILE WILDLIFE ACROSS
THE ENTIRE GLOBE. CALIFORNIA IS
IS A LEADER IN AND BE AND UP AND
A LOT OF THESE AREAS I THINK WE
NEED TO CONTINUE TO LEAD.
AND WE NEED TO WORK HARD FIND A
WAY TO TO MAKE THIS WORK FOR
EVERYBODY INVOLVED.
SO.
ALL SUPPORTED NOW AND I
UNDERSTAND THIS BILL WILL COME
BACK TO THE SENATE.
I I'VE BEEN HERE LONG ENOUGH TO
KNOW THAT WE WILL SEE IT AGAIN
AND I HOPE IT DOES.
THAT IT'LL BE.
WORTHY OF ALL OF OUR SPORT.
THANK YOU SENATOR HUESO CENTER
WIENER.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT I RISE
IN SUPPORT IN STRONG SUPPORT OF
THIS BILL AND I WANNA THANK THE.
THE AUTHOR FOR HIS.
PERSEVERANCE IN MOVING THIS
FORWARD AFTER THE BUCK TEMPORARY
SETBACK LAST YEAR BY. THIS BILL
IS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT AND
YOU'RE JUST LOOKING BACKING UP
HERE.
SO MANY PEOPLE WALKING ACROSS
THE POLITICAL SPECTRUM ARE
ABSOLUTELY HORRIFIED. WHEN WE
SEE THE IMPACTS OF THIS KIND OF
DEBRIS.
IN OUR WATER WAVES.
WHEN PEOPLE SEE ANIMALS THAT
ARE STRANGLING OR ARE ARE BEING
STRANGLED.
HERDS OF DYING OR BEING INJURED
UP BECAUSE OF THIS MATERIAL THAT
GOES INTO OUR OCEANS AND OTHER
WATER WAYS WHEN PEOPLE SEE. THAT
GIGANTIC PLASTIC ISLANDS THAT
KEEPS GETTING BIGGER AND BIGGER
AND BIGGER.
PEOPLE ARE DISGUSTED AND
HORRIFIED UNDER WONDER WHY THIS
IS HAPPENING.
TO OUR PLANET TO OUR
ENVIRONMENT AND THE REASON IS
THAT WE ALLOW PRODUCTS LIKE
THIS.
TO KEEP GOING OUT AND GOING OUT
AND IT AND IT WINDS UP IN OUR
SEWERS AYE IN OUR OCEANS IN OUR
RIVERS.
AND.
AS MUCH AS WE TRY TO RECYCLE I
IT IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AT THE
LEVEL THAT WE NEED IT.
TO HAPPEN.
THESE MATERIALS ARE BURIED
TOXIC.
I AND WE HAVE TO MOVE AWAY FROM
THEM EVERY TIME WE TAKE A BOLD
PROGRESSIVE STOPPED. OUGHT TO
MOVE AWAY FROM TOXIC MATERIALS
LIKE WITH THE PLASTIC BAG MAN.
PEOPLE SAY THE SKY IS FALLING
IT'S GOING TO BE THE END OF
EVERYTHING TO ME IMPOSSIBLE AND
THEN ALL THE SUDDEN. WE EXHAUST
AND WE HAVE A CLEANER AND
HEALTHIER ENVIRONMENT I AS A
RESULT THE SAME WILL HAPPEN
HERE.
THIS BILL IS PHASEDIN OVER
YEARS IT WILL GIVE INDUSTRY AN
OPPORTUNITY.
TO ADOPT.
AND TO IN THE BE.
AND TO CREATE PRODUCTS THAT
DON'T.
STRANGLER ENVIRONMENT.
SO I BIRDS AND I VOTE ON THIS
BILL THANK YOU SENATOR WIENER
CENTER SKINNER.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT
MEMBERS OF OUR THINK THE AUTHOR.
FIVE. I THINK MOST OF US KNOW
THAT.
THE FAST FOOD INDUSTRY.
MOST OF THE NATIONAL CHAINS HAVE
NOT BEEN USING STAR FROM FOR A
VERY VERY LONG TIME ALL THE
AUTHOR CITED MCDONALD'S WHICH
DID STOP ITS USE IN NINETY.
AFTER.
THE CITY OF BERKELEY PASSED THE
VERY FIRST DAY ARE FROM BAND IN
THE COUNTRY IN NINETEEN EIGHTY
EIGHT. AND THEN WAS FOLLOWED BY
MANY OTHER CITIES CALIFORNIA.
CITIES
CITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY IN
DOING SO SO MCDONALD'S ALL THE
SUDDEN FACED A SITUATION WHERE.
THEY WOULD HAVE TO IN LOTS OF
JURISDICTIONS ACROSS THE COUNTRY
HAVE ONE TYPE OF PACKAGING AND
IN OTHERS A DIFFERENT INSTANCE
CONSISTENCY IS ONE OF THEIR
HALLMARKS.
THEY OPTED AFTER LOTS OF
NEGOTIATION WITH VARIOUS GROUPS
LIKE ENVIRONMENTAL DEFENSE TO
ELIMINATE ENTIRELY. BUT WENDY'S
BURGER KING AND OTHERS HAD
ALREADY ELIMINATED IT AND WE
KNOW THOSE OF US WHO USE
STARBUCKS KNOW THAT THEY DO
NOT-USE STYROFOAM CUPS AND NEVER
HAVE.
AND WE ALSO KNOW THAT VERY MANY
JURISDICTIONS IN CALIFORNIA HAVE
HAD SUCH RESTRICTIONS FOR YEARS
SO THE USE OF STAR FROM WITH IN
OUR FOOD INDUSTRY ESPECIALLY IN
CALIFORNIA. IS PRETTY LIMITED
ALREADY SO IT IS NOT A BIG LEAP.
FOR IT IS NOT A BIG LEAP FOR OUR
FOOD INDUSTRY TO MAKE THE SWITCH
SINCE SO MANY HAVE.
NOW IN ADDITION TO THE.
IMPACT
ONE LARGE MAMMALS SEA TURTLES
AND OTHERS THAT WE KNOW IN THE
MARINE ENVIRONMENT THERE'S
RECENTLY BANNED A NEW STUDY THAT
INDICATES THAT ARE PLASTIC
POLLUTION. IS ALSO CONTRIBUTING
TO THE DISEASE OF OUR CORALS AND
THE BLEACHING OF OUR CORALS
AND AS WE THOSE OF US WHO FOLLOW
THE SCIENCE OF CLIMATE CHANGE
NO.
THAT CORALS ARE SOME OF THE
LARGEST.
BIOMASS IN THE OCEANS AND THAT'S
ONE OF THE LARGEST CARBON SINKS
IN OUR OCEANS
SO A DESTRUCTION OF OUR CORALS.
IS.
MORE THAN SERIOUS
SO I STRONGLY SUPPORT THIS BILL
AND I ASK FOR YOUR AYE VOTE.
THANK YOU CENTER SKINNER SENATOR
WYCHE HEALTHY I'M RECOMMEND
PRESIDENT OF LAST APRIL WHEN WE
HAD THE HEARING AND
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY AND THIS A
MEASURE WE HAD LIVELY DISCUSSION
I WAS REMINDED.
TWELVE YEARS AGO IN TWO
THOUSAND SIX
I'M NOT LIKE BERKELEY IT BACK IN
THE NINETEEN EIGHTIES
BUT.
DISSIDIA FREMONT WHICH I WAS A
CITY COUNCIL MEMBER I INTRODUCED
AN ORDINANCE AND THEY ADOPTED AN
ORDINANCE THE BAND STYROFOAM IN
TWO THOUSAND SIX
AND WHAT WE DID IS WE WENT TO
THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. WE WENT
OUT TO THE SMALL COMMUNITIES
BECAUSE OF MEMBERS I HAVE LOTS
OF AFGHAN THE INDIAN MULTI
ETHNIC RIVER BY RESTAURANTS IN
MY MY DISTRICT AND WE WENT OUT
TO SPARTAN FINAL AND COSTCO AND
LET THESE PEOPLE KNOW. BEFORE
THAT THE MAGIC DATE WHEN IT WAS
COULD BE IMPLEMENTED AND NO ONE.
NO ONE HAS LOST ANY SALES PEOPLE
STILL HAVE TAKEOUT THEY'VE
THEY'VE ADOPTED DAY THERE WERE
CERTAINLY A PREFERENCE FOR
STYROFOAM PRODUCTS WITH THAT.
SOUR SOUP IN THE OTHER PAPA
PRODUCTS BUT ONCE PEOPLE REALIZE
THAT THAT DAY IN CALIFORNIA WE
HAVE PRODUCTS THAT I CAN HOLD
THE CONTAINERS CAN HOLD THAT THE
FOOD PRODUCTS. IT'S GREAT SO THE
FROM THE BUSINESS SIDE THERE WAS
NO.
A WRINKLE OR WIGGLE THAT
OCCURRED IN THAT WAS TWELVE
YEARS AGO AND THAT WAS.
MAINLAND AMERICA FREMONT
CALIFORNIA AYE PURGING AYE VOTE.
THANK YOU CENTER WHITE HOUSE SKI
SEEK SENATOR MORLOCK.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT I'VE
BEEN LISTENING TO THE ARGUMENTS.
FOR S. B. SEVEN OH FIVE IN.
ALL I'M HEARING IS THAT.
INDUSTRY IS ALREADY REACTED
THEY'VE ALREADY MOVED IN THE
RIGHT DIRECTION AND.
ALL THE NAMES OF WELL KNOWN.
NATIONAL FOOD PROVIDERS HAVE
BEEN MENTIONED AND. IT'S NOT THE
WAY IT SHOULD BE ISN'T WITH US
UP THE PRIVATE SECTOR SHOULD
REACT.
TO OUR.
BEING A CONCERNED ABOUT STAR
FLUME IN.
POLY STYRENE OR IF IT'S
HAPPENING ON ITS OWN.
S. FANTASTIC I'M JUST WONDERING
WHY A LAW.
WHY THE RUSH?
I'M HEARING NO LOST SALES PEOPLE
STILL TAKING OUT FOOD.
SO MAYBE
IT'S A RHETORICAL QUESTION BUT.
BUT WHY DO WE DO A BILL THAT
PRAISES VENDORS THAT HAVE LEFT
THE USE OF THIS PRODUCT THANK
YOU MADAM PRESIDENT.
THANK YOU SENATOR MORE LOCK
MEMBERS IS THERE ANY FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE.
SEEING NONE CENTER ALLEN WOULD
YOU LIKE TO CLOSE.
THANK YOU MEMBERS FOR THE
THOUGHTFUL DISCUSSION AND I
APPRECIATE THE QUESTION FROM THE
THE RHETORICAL QUESTIONS FROM
MY.
GOOD FRIEND FROM ORANGE COUNTY
AND I'D LOVE TO WORK WITH HIM ON
A BILL TO PRAISE THOSE VENDORS
WHO HAVE. TAKEN THE RIGHT STEP
AND MOVE TOWARD MORE
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
PRODUCTS.
BOB THE FACT IS I THINK HISTORY
HAS SHOWN IN THE CASE OF SO MANY
SITUATIONS THAT. SENATOR TAKES A
LOT OF A NIGHT.
WHEN WE KNOW THAT WE HAVE
DAMAGING PRODUCTS OUT THERE WE
KNOW THEY'RE GOOD ALTERNATIVES
AYE THE MARKET DOESN'T ALWAYS
MOVE AS FAST AS IT NEEDS TO AND
YET WE FIGURED OUT A WAY TO WORK
CLOSELY WITH BUSINESS.
TO TO MOVE THE MARKET IN A WAY
THAT DOESN'T END UP BEING
DAMAGING TO BOTH THE MARKET
WHILE ALSO BEING MUCH BETTER FOR
THE ENVIRONMENT.
AND THAT'S WE'RE TRYING TO DO
HERE.
BUT I WOULD CERTAINLY LOVE TO
WORK WITH YOU ON ON ON PRAISING
THOSE THOSE VENDORS THAT HAVE
DONE THE RIGHT THING.
AND WITH THAT I REALLY
APPRECIATE EVERYONE'S ATTENTION%
TO THIS ISSUE THE MORE WE SPEND
TIME LOOKING AT THE DAMAGE. THAT
THIS PRODUCT IS DOING TO OUR
COASTLINE THE IMPACT THAT HAS ON
EVERYTHING FROM TOURISM TO
OCEANIC HEALTH.
IT BECOMES ABUNDANTLY CLEAR HOW
IMPORTANT IT IS FOR US TO TAKE
THIS MODEST OUT. THAT WORKS
CLOSELY WITH INDUSTRY TO
IMPLEMENT ON A ON A.
SLOW TIMELINE DO IT NO WAY THAT
WILL WORK FOR EVERYBODY AND
DOING AWAY THEY'LL HELP SAVE OUR
ENVIRONMENT SO I PLEASE ASK FOR

MEMBERS WE ARE NOW MOVING TO
FILE ITEM FORTY ONE.
SENATOR ANDERSON.
MR SECRETARY PLEASE FREE.
SENATE BILL SEVEN TWELVE BY
SENATOR ANDERSON AND ACT GOING
TO VEHICLES.
SENATOR ANDERSON. MEMBERS
RIGHT NOW IN CALIFORNIA.
NOT EVERYBODY OWNS GARAGE.
AND MANY MANY CALIFORNIANS HAVE
TO PARK ON THE STREET.
OVERNIGHT IN THEY HAVE PERMITS
TO DO SO.
AND THEY HAVE NO WAY OF
PROTECTING THEIR VEHICLE EXCEPT
FOR ALREADY IN THE LAW IT'S
ALLOW THAT THEY CAN COMPLETELY
COVERED THE CAR.
FROM. OUR TAPPED TO BOTTOM IS
LONGING AS THE COVER CAN BE
LIFTED ME ANNUALLY TO SEE THE
LICENSE PLATE.
AND THAT'S THE CURRENT LAW.
YOU MAY NOT IN CALIFORNIA DRIVE
WITH ANYTHING CONCEALING YOUR
LICENSE PLATE.
THIS BILL WOULD SIMPLY ALLOW YOU
TO CONCEAL YOUR LICENSE PLATE
WITH A FLAP THAT COULD BE
MANUALLY LIFTED TO BE SEEN. IF
PARKED.
AND.
IT WOULD ALLOW THOSE WHO WISH
TO HAVE PRIVACY TO HAVE PRIVACY
EVEN KNOW THAT THEY DON'T OWN A
GARAGE WHEN THEY PARK THEIR CAR
NIGHT.
NOW.
SOME LONG FORESKIN HAS SAID THAT
THIS IS GOING TO JUST BREAK OPEN
ALL THE CRIMES OUT THERE.
THERE ARE TO PEOPLE CAN BE
KIDNAPPED
DATA AMBER ALERTS AREN'T GONNA
WORK THAT NONE OF THIS IS GOING
TO WORK.
SO WE ARE TO UNDERSTAND FROM
THEIR POINT OF VIEW THAT IF YOU
FULLY COVER YOUR CAR.
THAT SOMEHOW THIS IS SAFE FOR
POSITION IS SIMPLY PUTTING A
FLAP. TEMPORARILY. ON YOUR
LICENSE PLATE SO SEEN THE MAKE
THE MODEL.
THE COLOR IN THE YEAR IN BE ABLE
TO LOOK INTO THE CAR IS SOMEHOW
NOT AS SAFE IS FULLY ENCLOSED IN
THE CAR. ARE UNDER A TARP.
MEMBERS.
.
I DON'T WANT.
TO LIVE IN A STATE WHERE I HAVE
I HAVE TO BE UNDER SURVEILLANCE
TWENTY FOUR SEVEN AND I GET NO
RELIEF FROM IT NOW. YOU MAY
CHOOSE NOT.
TO COVER YOUR LICENSE PLATE TO
COVER YOUR CAR IN THAT'S
ENTIRELY UP TO YOU AND YOU HAVE
THAT RIGHT.
BUT HAVE YOUR PRIVACY STOLEN.
BECAUSE PRIVATE COMPANIES DRIVE
AROUND CLICKING THAT DATA IN
TRACK YOU IS WRONG.
MEMBERS I ASK FOR AN AYE VOTE.
THANK YOU SENATOR ANDERSON
MEMBERS DISCUSSION OR DEBATE
SENATOR WIENER.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT I.
RISE AS I DID LAST TIME THIS I
WAS ON THE FLOOR IN SUPPORTER
AND ONE THING IT'S CHANGE
BETWEEN NOW AND LAST TIME. IS A
FEW DAYS AGO IT WAS REPORTED.
THAT I USE HAS NOW ENTERED INTO
A CONTRACT TO OBTAIN LICENSE
PLATE DATA FROM THESE VENDORS
THAT A TEAM UP PHOTOS AND
INFORMATION ABOUT LICENSE PLATES
AGGREGATE AT PUTTING ON A
DATABASE. AND NOW I USES ENTER
HAS ENTERED INTO A CONTRACT TO
OBTAIN THAT INFORMATION THERE
ARE MANY REASONS WHY PEOPLE
MIGHT NOT WANT. TO HAVE THEIR
LICENSE PLATE PHOTOGRAPHED.
AND I CONTINUE TO SUPPORT THIS
BILL.
THANK YOU SENATOR WIENER SENATOR
JACKSON.
IS THANK YOU ARE A LITTLE DEJA
VU HERE MY GOOD COLLEAGUE FROM
SAN DIEGO WHERE THIS IS THE SAME
BILL THAT WAS BROUGHT LAST TIME.
AND.
AGAIN.
OF MY STAND IN THE SAME
OBJECTION THIS IS PUTTING THE
EMPHASIS ON THE WRONG SYLLABLE.
THE PROBLEM HERE ISN'T THAT WE
SHOULD PUT THE RESPONSIBILITY ON
INDIVIDUALS TO COVER UP THEIR
LICENSE PLATE.
THE PROBLEM HERE IS THAT WE
SHOULD PROHIBIT THESE COMPANIES
FROM EITHER BEING ABLE TO
ACCUMULATE THIS OR PASSED A LAW
THAT PROHIBITS THEM FROM BEING
ABLE TO SELL THIS INFORMATION OR
CONTRACT WITH ICE.
THAT'S THE ANSWER TO THIS
PROBLEM.
WHY ARE WE ALWAYS PUTTING THE
BURDEN ON THE CONSUMER TO
PROTECT THEIR OWN PRIVACY?
HABA PROHIBITING COMPANIES FROM
INVADING OUR PRIVACY.
THAT IS A POLITICAL PERHAPS A
PHILOSOPHICAL DISCUSSION BUT IN
THIS CASE NOW TRY TO.
USED THE SITUATION WITH THE ICE
AS A WAY TO FURTHER OUR EXCLUDE
THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THESE
COMPANIES TO COME IN AN
AGGREGATE OUR PERSONAL PRIVATE
INFORMATION AND PUT THE BURDEN
ON US TO PROTECT OURSELVES. IS
JUST PUTTING THE EMPHASIS ON THE
WRONG SYLLABLE.
THIS.
.
THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT APPROACH
COLLEAGUES IT WASN'T THE RIGHT
APPROACH LAST WEEK IT'S STILL
NOT THE RIGHT APPROACH IF MY
COLLEAGUE IS SO CONCERNED ABOUT
PROTECTING FROM MICE.
THEN LET'S DO A BILL THAT MAKES
IT UNLAWFUL TO CONTRACT WITH ICE
THE GIVEAWAY THIS INFORMATION
AND THEN LET'S MAKE IT UNLAWFUL
FOR THESE COMPANIES TO
ACCUMULATE OUR PERSONAL
INFORMATION. AGGREGATED AND SELL
IT AND WITH THAT I WOULD AGAIN
ASK YOU TO EITHER STAY OFF THIS
BILL OR VOTE NO THIS IT SETS A
BAD PRECEDENT. AND I BELIEVE
IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE CAN DO
BETTER TO PROTECT PRIVACY AND A
PROTECT AGAINST THE INVASIONS
FROM MICE THAT WE KEEP SAYING
EXPANDING IN OUR COMMUNITIES ON
A DAILY BASIS.
THANK YOU SENATOR JACKSON CENTER
GALGIANI.
YOU KNOW FRIDAY NIGHT I WALKED
INTO MY SAFELY STORE TO GET
GROCERIES AND I WALKED UPON A
CRIME THAT IT JUST HAPPENED.
SOMEBODY WHO HAD STOLEN
SOMETHING HAD SPRAYED MACE IN
THE FACE OF A SECURITY GUARD AT
SAFEWAY I WALK DOWN ON IT AND
UPON CALLING NINE ONE ONE AND
TRYING TO HELP THE WOMAN GET TO.
WATER TO RINSE HER EYES AND
TRYING TO ALERT SOMEBODY TO SO
WHAT HAD JUST HAPPENED.
IT WAS A PRETTY CHAOTIC SCENE
WITH PEOPLE CUSTOMERS COUGHING
EVERYWHERE AND THE WOMAN IN
EXCRUCIATING PAIN.
AND WHEN LAW ENFORCEMENT AND THE
FIRE DEPARTMENT AND AN AMBULANCE
SHOWED UP TO CARE FOR THE
SECURITY OFFICER.
THE ONLY THING THAT LAW
ENFORCEMENT HAD TO GO ON WAS DID
YOU DID ANYBODY SEE THE CAR THAT
SHE LEFT AND AND ANYBODY GET ANY
PART OF THE LICENSE PLATE.
I HAVE TWO OPPOSES BECAUSE I AM
ALWAYS REMINDED THAT IF WE WANT
LAW ENFORCEMENT TO PROTECT.
UNLESS.
AND TO PROTECT CONSUMERS AND
EMPLOYEES LIKE THE POOR VICTIMS
AT A SAFEWAY STORE AT A GROCERY
STORE. WHO ARE BEING HURT BY A
RING OF PEOPLE WHO ARE HEATING
UP SAFEWAY STORES ALL THROUGHOUT
MY COMMUNITY AND HAVE BEEN FOR
THE PAST YEAR? WE HAVE TO ALLOW
LAW ENFORCEMENT TO HAVE THE
TOOLS TO DO THEIR JOB AND I
AGREE WITH SENATOR JACKSON I
UNDERSTAND THAT THERE'S A
CONCERN A PROBLEM HERE. BUT THIS
IS THE WRONG SOLUTION SO I HAVE
TO RESPECTFULLY OPPOSE THIS
BILL.
THANK YOU SENATOR GALGIANI
SOONER LARA.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT I WAS
GOING TO SPEAK ON THIS ISSUE BUT
I JUST WANT TO CLARIFY. THAT THE
IMPORTANT THING HERE FOR
IMMIGRANT COMMUNITY IS ACTUALLY
WHAT CENTER JACKSON WAS SAME
PROTECT THE DATA FROM HAVING ICE
ACCESS SAID THAT'S WHAT. ARE
IMMIGRANT COMMUNITY A WANTS AND
WHAT STOPS A COP FROM NOW
ARRESTING SOMEBODY FOR COVERING
THE LICENSE PLATE AGAIN PUTTING
THE BURDEN ON OUR IMMIGRANT
COMMUNITIES WHEN IT COMES TO.
THIS BILL SHOULD BECOME LAW. I'M
NOT I DON'T WANNA I WAS IN A
SPEAK ON THE ISSUE THE BILL BUT
JUSTIN'S MY COLLEAGUE FROM SAN
FRANCISCO MENTIONED THAT. WE ARE
WORKING WITH OUR IMMIGRANT
RIGHTS GROUPS YOU'RE GONNA SEE
LEGISLATION ʍT
PROTECT. OUR IMMIGRANTS IDENTITY
WHETHER THEY CHECK INTO A MOTEL
SIX WHETHER THEY'RE ON A BUS
WHETHER THEY ARE.
BILL PREVENTED FROM SHARING THE
INFORMATION FROM THE LICENSE
PLATE YOU'LL BE SEEING THAT
LEGISLATION COMING FOURTH WE ARE
WORKING WITH OUR IMMIGRANT
RIGHTS GROUPS AGAIN. THIS MAY
NOT BE THE SOLUTION THAT THEY'RE
ASKING FOR WHAT THEY WANT IS
FULL PROTECTION FROM THE SHARING
OF DATA WHICH IS WHERE WE THINK
IT'S MORE APPROPRIATE.
THANK YOU CENTER LARA MEMBERS
FURTHER DISCUSSION OR DEBATE.
SEEN MAN CENTER ANDERSON JOY TO
CLOSE YES.
ONE.
HAVING YOUR LICENSE PLATE.
IS NOT NOBODY RUNS OUT. RAIMES A
SAFE WAY AND SAYS OH MY GOSH I'M
AGO PARK MY CAR COVER MY LICENSE
PLATE.
IF THEY'RE GOING TO ROB A SAFE
WAY AND THERE ARE HARD CORE
CRIMINAL THEY STOLE A CAR.
EITHER STORE CARLY STOLE LICENSE
PLATE.
IT'S SEE RIGHT NOW UNDER LAW. IF
THEY'RE GOING RENOWNED COVER THE
LICENSE PLATE IT'S LEGAL THEY
JUST HAVE TO COVER THE FULL CAR.
THEY HAVE TO COVER THEIR ENTIRE
CAR.
SO YOU CAN'T SEE THE MAKE YOU
CAN'T SEE THE MODEL YOU CAN'T O
THE COLOR AND YOU CAN'T SEE. THE
YEAR OF THE CAR.
SO IF YOU SAW TWO LETTERS THAT
LICENSE PLATE BUDGET KNEW IT WAS
A YELLOW VEGA. IN NINETEEN
SEVENTY TWO.
PLACE WHENEVER REAL THE FINE
BECAUSE IT'S COMPLETELY COVERED.
SO THIS NOTION. THIS IDIOTIC
NOTION THAT A CAR IS MORE
DANGEROUS WITH A LICENSE PLATE
COVERED WHEN YOU CAN SEE THE
MAKE THE MODEL. THE YEAR IN THE
COLLAR.
IT'S JUST NONSENSE.
THE SECOND THING IS NO ONE THREE
ABLE TO PRODUCE ANY OF THE
CRIMES HAVE BEEN SOLVED.
BY READING PARKED CARS.
MOST TO THE CRIMES ARE SOLVED
BECAUSE YOU'RE DRIVING TO GET ON
THE FREEWAY AND YOU GO UNDER.
A FIXED CAMERA CATCHING YOU IN
MOTION WITH THE DRIVER IN THE
CAR.
THE PARK CAR HAS NO DRIVER
THERE'S NOBODY THERE TO
APPREHEND.
SO. YOU KNOW LUCK I LIKE LAW
ENFORCEMENT I WANT TO PROTECT
OUR SOCIETY. BUT WHAT I WANT
PROTECT MORE.
IS YOUR PERSONAL LIBERTY YOUR
CIVIL LIBERTIES
YOU SEE.
IF WE PUT A POLICE OFFICER IN
EVERYONE'S HOUSE WE WOULD BE
SAFER.
AND THEY COULD TRACK YOU
EVERYWHERE YOU GO.
IF YOU WOULD BE UNDER
SURVEILLANCE
THEN YOU SHOULD BE FOR INSISTING
ON.
CAMERAS IN EVERY INTERSECTION
YOU SHOULD BE INS YEAH INSISTING
ON AN ENGLISH SYSTEM.
WERE THERE ISN'T A WALKWAY OR
STREET THAT IS UNDER
SURVEILLANCE.
BUT I LIVE IN FREEDOM.
I LIVE IN AMERICA I DON'T WANT I
DON'T WANT BE TREATED AS A
COMMON CRIMINAL WILL NOT DONE
NOTHING WRONG.
THE VAST MAJORITY OF
CALIFORNIANS HAVE DONE NOTHING
WRONG.
THEY DESERVE TO HAVE THEIR
PRIVACY IF THEY WISH IT.
AND THIS BILL WOULD ALLOW THEM
NOT FOR THOSE TWO WHO DON'T.
HAVING THE ISSUE WITH IT AND I
KNOW SOME PEOPLE HAVE VANITY
PLATES IN THERE AND THEY WANT BE
LOUD AND PROUD THAT'S GREAT.
THEY CAN DO IT SEE THE BEAUTY OF
THIS BILL. BLOUSE ONLY THOSE
PEOPLE WHO DON'T WANT TO BE
TRACKED.
BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT
STALKER KNOWING WHERE THEY ARE.
THEY DON'T WANT PEOPLE
ACKNOWLEDGING THEIR EVERY
MOVEMENT THEY HAVE THE ABILITY.
AND A LATIMES THESE PEOPLE ARE
PEOPLE DON'T OWN FOR ARCHERS.
THERE THE VAST MAJORITY OF
CALIFORNIANS PICK DON'T HAVE A
HOME WITH A GROUCH.
IF YOU GO JUST TWO BLOCKS AWAY
FROM THE CAPITAL HERE CALL THOSE
APARTMENTS ALL THOSE HOUSES
DON'T HEAR CROUCHES THEY HAVE
PERMITS FROM THE CITY TO PARK IN
THE STREET OVERNIGHT.
THEY SHOULD HAVE THE SAME RIGHTS
TO PRIVACY IS ANY RICH PERSON
WHO CAN PARK THEIR CAR IN THE
GARAGE.
AND I THINK THAT THIS LEVELS THE
PLAYING FIELD FOR THOSE WHO ARE
WORRIED ABOUT THEIR SECURITY.
IN THEIR PRIVACY.
AND I GET ALL THOSE OTHER THINGS
ARE GREAT BUT YOU'RE SUGGESTING.
BUT THEY'RE NOT BEFORE US TODAY.
AND I THINK THAT IF YOU CAN
COVER YOUR CAR FULLY. YOU SHOULD
BE ABLE TO COVER YOUR CAR
PARTIALLY IS LONGEST LAW
ENFORCEMENT CAN LIFT THE FLAP
AND ACTUALLY SEE IT.
SO OUR MEMBERS I ASK FOR NIGHT
VOTE. AYE AYE I WOULD'VE NEVER
THOUGHT THAT THIS BILL WOULD
HAVE BEEN AS CONTENTIOUS AS IT
IS. CONSIDERING YOU CAN FULLY
COVER YOUR CAR UNDER CURRENT LAW
TO DAY INCLUDING YOUR LICENSE
PLATE AND MORE PERFECTLY OKAY
WITH THAT.
BUT WE'RE NOT OKAY WITH JUST
COVERING THE LICENSE PLATE WITH
A TEMPORARY FLAP BY THE WAY.
UNDER CURRENT LAW IN UNDER THIS
BILL YOU CANNOT DRIVE WITH YOUR
LICENSE PLATE COVERED AND BY THE
WAY THAT'S WHERE NINETY PERCENT
OR MORE OF CASES ARE SOFT
THEY'RE NOT SOFT IN PARKED CARS.
DILLARD FULLY COVERED BY TARPS
WHICH IS PERFECTLY LEGAL
ARCHRIVAL.

PLEASE READ.
SENATE BILL FOR NINETEEN BY
SENATOR PORTANTINO AND
ACKLINGTON LEGISLATURE AND CLEAN
THERE'S THREATS TAKE EFFECT
IMMEDIATELY.
SENATOR PORTANTINO. THANK YOU
ARE MADAM PRESIDENT AND
COLLEAGUES.
TODAY I RISE AS A FATHER.
AND AS A POLICY MAKER TO PRESENT
SP FOUR NINETEEN. THE
LEGISLATIVE HARASSMENT
RETALIATION PREVENTION ACT
A COMPANION MEASURE TO AB FOR A
THREE.
I WANT TO GIVE SPECIAL
RECOGNITION TO THE MANY WOMEN IN
THE CAPITAL COMMUNITY WHO HAVE
COURAGEOUSLY COME FORWARD.
TO DEMAND THAT WE DO MORE AND
BETTER.
I DO NOT KNOW IF WE WOULD BE
HERE TODAY WITHOUT THEIR BRAVE
EFFORTS AND COLLECTIVE VOICES.
FOR ME THIS IS THE CULMINATION
OF A JOURNEY TO IMPROVE THE
WORKING CONDITIONS IN THE
CAPITAL. THAT BEGAN BACK IN TWO
THOUSAND ELEVEN.
I WANT TO GIVE SPECIAL THANKS TO
SENATE LEADERSHIP FOR HELPING TO
CRAFT THIS IMPORTANT COMPANION
DAY BEFORE A THREE. I ALSO WANT
TO HIGHLIGHT THE JOINT AUTHOR
FROM CHINO WHO WISH TIRES LEE
MADE WOMEN'S HEALTH AND CIVIL
RIGHTS ACTIVISM. THE CENTERPIECE
OF HER TIME IN THE SENATE.
I APPLAUD MY COLLEAGUE IN THE
ASSEMBLY FROM LAKE ELSINORE FOR
HER FOUR YEAR EFFORT TO CONTINUE
KEEPING THIS ISSUE ALIVE.
I WAS VERY PLEASED TO BE A
PRINCIPAL CO AUTHOR OF AB FOR A
THREE LAST FEBRUARY.
AND I WONDER COMPLEMENT THE
BIPARTISANSHIP THAT THIS BILL
HAS TURNED.
SO WHAT DOES SP FOUR NINETEEN
DO.
S. BEFORE NINETEEN WILL PROTECT
LEGISLATIVE STAFF AND EVERYONE
THAT ADVOCATES BEFORE THE
LEGISLATURE FROM RETALIATION FOR
COMING FORWARD AND REPORTING ALL
FORMS HARASSMENT. IN THE
CAPITAL.
S. EFORE NINETEEN WILL ALSO
REQUIRE BOTH THE SENATE AND THE
ASSEMBLY.
KEEP AND MAINTAIN RECORDS OF
HARASSMENT COMPLAINTS MADE FOR
TWELVE YEARS
WHICH GOES HAND IN HAND WITH THE
NEW TERM LIMITS.
I BELIEVE THIS BILL A. B. AND AB
FOR A THREE. ARE IMPORTANT
MEASURES TO PROVIDE DESPERATELY
NEEDED SAFEGUARDS TO PROTECT
THAT.
ATTACK THOSE THAT WORK IN THE
LEGISLATIVE COMMUNITY AGAIN. THE
WOMEN AND MEN WHO WORK HERE
DEMAND WE DO BETTER SP FOUR
NINETEEN IS ONE OF MANY OF THE
ANSWERS.
THAT ANSWER THAT DEMAND.
SO FOR BELLA AND SOPHIA.
AND EVERY OTHER DAUGHTER SISTER
MOTHER AND GRANDMOTHER AND
FRIENDS.
I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE
LEGISLATURE WOULD BE A PLACE AT
WHICH ALL OF THEM.
WOULD BE COMFORTABLE WORKING AND
EXCELLING.
FREE OF INTIMIDATION AND
HARASSMENT.
I RESPECTFULLY ASPIRIN AYE VOTE.
THANK YOU CENTER PORTANTINO
DEBATER DISCUSSION THE WILL
START WITH CENTER WHEN.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT I RISE
IN SUPPORT OF SB FOUR NINETEEN.
WHICH WILL PROVIDE HELP PROVIDE
IMPORTANT LONG OVERDUE
PROTECTIONS FOR LEGISLATIVE
STAFFERS. AND ALL THOSE WHO OF.
AND ALL THOSE WHO ALSO LOBBY ON
BEHALF OF THEIR CLIENTS WHO
EXPERIENCE SEXUAL HARASSMENT.
I DO QUESTION WHY THE BILL
SPECIFICALLY DOES NOT INCLUDE
LEGISLATORS.
WHO COULD ALSO FEW AT RISK OF
RETALIATION IF THEY COME FORWARD
AFTER BEING SEXUALLY HARASSED?
AND I KNOW I'VE SPOKEN TO THE
AUTHOR ABOUT THIS.
BUT I AM HOPING THAT AS THE BILL
MOVES FORWARD. I HOPE THAT WE
COULD ULTIMATELY AGREE ON
NATIONAL AT ALL WILL PROTECT
EVERY PERSON WHO WORKS IN THIS
GREAT CAPITOL BUILDING.
AND THAT INCLUDES MEMBERS OF THE
LEGISLATURE AS WELL.
I ASK FOR YOUR AYE VOTE.
THANK YOU A SENATOR NGUYEN
SENATOR LEYVA.
THANK YOU MAN A PRESIDENT GOOD
MORNING MEMBERS AS A PROUD JOIN
AUTHOR OF SP FOUR NINETEEN I
RISE IN STRONG SUPPORT OF THIS
MEASURE. SP FOUR NINETEEN MAKES
A NECESSARY STATEMENT IT MAKES
IT EXPLICITLY CLEAR THAT THE
LEGISLATURE CANNOT RETALIATE
AGAINST A LEGISLATIVE EMPLOYEE
OR LEGISLATIVE ADVOCATE FOR
FILING A COMPLAINT. TESTIFYING
OR ASSISTING IN A PROCEEDING
RELATED TO A VIOLATION OF THE
CALIFORNIA FAIR EMPLOYMENT AND
HOUSING ACT
FEE HA. IT IS CRITICAL THAT OUR
EMPLOYEES IN THE GREATER CAPITAL
COMMUNITY FEEL SAFE IN COMING
FORWARD TO DATE THIS HAS
CERTAINLY BEEN ONE OF THE
BIGGEST ISSUES I'VE HEARD FROM
STAFF.
THE LACK OF FEELING SAFE AND
PROTECTED.
IF OUR STAFF DO NOT FEEL SAFE
COMING FORWARD THEN HOW CAN AND
WILL INDIVIDUALS AND OTHER
PROFESSIONS EVER FEEL SAFE.
THE LEGISLATURE MUST LEAD BY
EXAMPLE THIS BILL ALSO REQUIRES
THAT BOTH HOUSES OF THE
LEGISLATURE PUT INTO PLACE. A
SYSTEM TO MAINTAIN RECORDS FOR
AT LEAST TWELVE YEARS.
IT IS MY HOPE THAT BY KEEPING
RECORDS FOR AT LEAST THIS PERIOD
OF TIME WE CAN SHOW TRANSPARENCY
AND BEGIN TO EARN BACK. THE
PUBLIC TRUST.
ULTIMATELY WE MUST MAKE SURE
THAT OUR STAFF AND THE GREATER
CAPITAL COMMUNITY KNOW THAT WE
HEAR YOU. WE BELIEVE YOU AND WE
WANT TO REGAIN YOUR TRUST.
THERE'S STILL A LOT OF WORK
AHEAD TO DO BUT I BELIEVE THAT
THIS IS A KEY STEP IN THE RIGHT
DIRECTION AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR YOUR AYE VOTE.
THANK YOU SENATOR LEYVA.
SENATOR MITCHELL.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH MADAM
PRESIDENT NAM.
WILL BE SUPPORTING THE BILL
TODAY OUT OF RESPECT FOR THE
MULTI YEAR EFFORT THAT THE.
THIS AUTHOR AND THE AUTHOR OF
THE AT THEIR COMPANION
LEGISLATION THE ASSEMBLY OF PUT
FORWARD.
HOWEVER.
I AM PROUD TO STAND WITH.
SENATOR BAYH ARE AND SENATOR
MORE LOCK AS MEMBERS OF THE
NEWLY FORMED SUBCOMMITTEE ON
SEXUAL HARASSMENT. ON PREVENTION
AND RESPONSE WHICH IS A
SUBCOMMITTEE OF THE JOINT
COMMITTEE ON RULES WHAT WE HAVE
HER COLLEAGUES LOUD AND CLEAR IS
THE EXPECTATION THAT WE. CAN
DEVELOP A POLICY FOR THE
LEGISLATURE. THAT IS HAVE INPUT
FROM AND GOVERNS BOTH HOUSES OF
THE LEGISLATURE WHILE WE LIKE TO
TALK ABOUT THE RED CARPET VERSUS
GREEN CARPET HAVING BEEN A STAFF
HERE AND. HAVING STAFF MYSELF
NOW WHO HAVE SERVED IN BOTH
HOUSES WE'RE CLEAR THAT WHAT
THIS IS GOING TO REQUIRE.
IS A SINGLE VOICE RESPONSE IN
TERMS OF HOW THE LEGISLATURE
WILL STEP UP AND DEVELOP
POLICIES AND PRACTICES.
TO PROVIDE PROTECTION FOR ALL
IMPACTED BY SEXUAL HARASSMENT
WHO REALLY IS MY HOPE.
THAT WE WILL COLLECTIVELY AFFORD
THIS COMMITTEE THE OPPORTUNITY
THE STEP UP AND DEVELOP POLICIES
WE HAD AN AMAZING ROBUST HEARING
LOT LAST WEEK WHERE WE HEARD
FROM.
CULTURE CHANGE EXPERTS
AND WE'RE CLEARLY LOOKING OUT AT
THE OVER ARCHING. ISSUE THAT
IMPACTS THE WOMEN THE WORKPLACE.
AND THAT'S IMPLICIT BIAS AND HOW
WOMEN ARE TREATED THE WORKPLACE
ACROSS THE BOARD OF WHICH SEXUAL
HARASSMENT IS ONE VERY
IMPORTANT.
ASPECT.
SO AGAIN I'M GONNA SUPPORTED
TODAY BASED ON THE HISTORY ALL
OF OF THIS PIECE OF LEGISLATION
BUT I'M HOPING THAT MEMBERS WELL
THAT WE WON'T HAVE A PILE ON
KIND OF EXPERIENCE WITH REGARD
TO HOW WE GOVERN. THE
LEGISLATURE AND YOU GIVE THE
JOINT RULES COMMITTEE AND THE
SELECT COMMITTEE THE OPPORTUNITY
TO HAVE HEARINGS DEVELOP BEST
PRACTICES AND COME UP WITH A
SOLUTION THAT WORKS IN THE BEST
INTERESTS OF EVERYONE. THOUGHT
TODAY I'LL BE SUPPORTING THE
BILL.
THANK YOU SENATOR MITCHELL
SENATOR ANDERSON.
I HAVE A QUESTION OF THE AUTHOR.
SENATOR PORTANTINO WHEN YOU TAKE
A QUESTION.
YES
PLEASE PROCEED PAST SENATOR IS
THIS THE FIRST TIME YOU RUN THIS
BILL.
I RAN A SIMILAR VERSION OF THE
BILL IN THE STATE ASSEMBLY.
ON A NUMBER OF OCCASIONS BACK
IN TWO THOUSAND LIMITED HOUSE
AND TWELVE I BELIEVE IN. TO WHAT
RESULT.
WELL.
MY GENTLE COLLEAGUE IS. I THINK
IT'S IMPORTANT WE MOVE FORWARD
ON THOSE BILLS DID NOT PASS AT
THE TIME WHICH IS WHY I CREDITED
THE. BUT LOUD CHORUS OF WOMEN
WHO BRAVELY COME FORWARD TO HELP
PUT THIS ON THE FRONT BURNER.
WELL AYE I'M MY OWN TIME I JUST
LIKE TO SAY.
.
HAD LEADERSHIP AND MORE OPEN TO
PROTECTING WOMEN IN PROTECTING
PEOPLE AGAINST HARASSMENT.
IN THOSE BILLS HAD PASSED BACK
THEN WE WOULD BE IN THIS
POSITION
TODAY.
AND I WANT TO THANK THE AUTHOR
FOR STICKING TO THIS MEAN LASER
FOCUSED ON STANDING UP FOR THOSE
WHO WOULD BE HARASSED AND WHO
WOULD BE VICTIMS.
ARJUN AYE VOTE I'M JUST
SADDENED.
THAT YOU GO BACK.
SO FAR NO HISTORY SEVEN YEARS
EIGHT YEARS.
AND YET NOTHING WAS DONE.
AND THOSE VICTIMS
BORN VICTIMS WHEN WE STARTED BUT
BECAME VICTIMS IN THE INTRO.
WHEN WE HAVE BILLS LIKE THIS
MEMBERS.
WE NEED TO A DO THINK IN TERMS
OF PROTECTING THOSE WHO HAVE NO
OTHER PROTECTIONS.
VIRGIN VOTE THANK YOU SENATOR
ANDERSON CENTER JACKSON.
THANK YOU UP MADAM PRESIDENT I
TOO AM HAPPY TO SUPPORT THIS
BILL TODAY IT DOES UNDERSCORE
AND EXPAND. THE PROTECTIONS
AGAINST DISCRIMINATION
HARASSMENT AND RETALIATION AND
THAT'S A GOOD THING.
BUT I DO WANNA MAKE ONE THING
CLEAR BECAUSE WE HAVE AGAIN IS
THE SADLY BECOMES A PARTISAN
ISSUE WHICH IT IS NOT.
WE SEE SEXUAL HARASSMENT COMING
REGARDLESS OF PARTY AFFILIATION
REGARDLESS OF AGE.
THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS SAID
THAT IN IN JUST WILL NOT WIDELY
KNOWN.
BUT IT SHOULD BE THAT THE FAIR
EMPLOYMENT AND HOUSING ACT
ALREADY.
IT ALREADY APPLIES TO THE
LEGISLATURE.
IT ALREADY APPLIES TO THE
LEGISLATURE.
AND THE DEPARTMENT OF FAIR
EMPLOYMENT AND HOUSING DIRECTOR
KEVIN KISH. CONFIRM THIS DURING
THE RECENT HEARINGS.
THAT WE HELD THE INFORMATIONAL
HEARING.
THAT TALKED ABOUT THE LEGAL
STANDARD FOR SEXUAL HARASSMENT
IN CALIFORNIA. SO THAT MEANS
THAT THE LEGISLATURE SLATE OF
EMPLOYEES ARE ALREADY.
PROTECTED BY LAW.
AGAINST DISCRIMINATION. AGAINST
HARASSMENT. AND RETALIATION FOR
REPORTING DISCRIMINATION OR
HARASSMENT SO THIS BILL IS VERY
STRONG REINFORCEMENT OF EXISTING
LAW.
AND SOMETHING THAT UNLESS PEOPLE
CHOSE CHOOSE NOT TO ACKNOWLEDGE
WHAT THE LAW IS AND WHAT THE LAW
SAYS.
ARE GOING TO TRY TO STEP UP AND
TAKE A DIFFERENT POSITION BUT
AGAIN THE FACTS BELIE THAT.
THIS BILL REINFORCES THAT AND
FOR THAT REASON I AM VERY PROUD
TO SUPPORT IT IT ALSO MEANS BY
THE WAY. THAT UNDER EXISTING
LONG LEGISLATIVE EMPLOYEES MAY
ALREADY FILE COMPLAINTS WITH THE
DEPARTMENT OF FAIR EMPLOYMENT
AND HOUSING IF THEY ARE THE
VICTIM OF DISCRIMINATION OR
HARASSMENT OR HAVE BEEN
RETALIATED AGAINST FOR OPPOSING
THESE PRACTICES.
THE DEPARTMENT OF FAIR
EMPLOYMENT AND HOUSING WILL AND
DOES AND WILL CONTINUE TO
INVESTIGATE ANY SUCH COMPLAINT.
NO AMENDMENTS THAT WERE TAKEN IN
THE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE EXPAND
THESE EXISTING PROTECTIONS FOR
LEGISLATIVE EMPLOYEES SO THAT
THEY ALSO COVER. LOBBYISTS.
THEY ALSO COVER LOBBYISTS.
AND THE STORIES THAT WE'VE BEEN
HEARING ALSO INCLUDE BAD
BEHAVIOR.
BY LOBBYIST THEY WILL NOW BE
COVERED.
HIGHLIGHTING IN EXPANDING THESE
PROTECTIONS WILL INDEED HELP
CHANGE THE CULTURE.
AND THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO DO
HERE IS MY COLLEAGUE HAS
INDICATED MY COLLEAGUE FROM LOS

SENATOR FROM LARKIN YADA. ON
BEHALF OF HIS TWO CHILDREN AND
THE SISTERS MOTHERS CHILDREN
GRANDCHILDREN THAT EVERY MEMBER
OF THIS ROOM HAS THAT THIS IS
THE BEGINNING OF THE DISCUSSION
AND NOT THE END OF IT WITH THAT
I URGE. YOUR AYE VOTE THANK YOU
CENTER JACKSON MEMBERS FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE.
THUNDERSTORM.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT I'LL
BE BRIEF.
I'M A CO AUTHOR THIS MEASURE AND
CERTAINLY RISE IN SUPPORT OF IT
TODAY BUT I DID JUST WANNA.
A KNOWLEDGE THAT. S. BEFORE
NINETEEN.
WHATEVER OTHER MEASURES WERE ME
MOVING THROUGH THIS BODY.
WHATEVER PROCEDURAL CHANGES
WILL BE MAKING.
IN THE SENATE.
.
CLAIMS THEY WILL BE BROUGHT TO
LIGHT OTER OTHER ISSUES WILL BE
TACKLING.
.
THERE'S SOMETHING DEEPER THAT
HAS TO CHANGE HERE AND IT'S IT'S
A.
PEOPLE TALK ABOUT CULTURE.
BUT.
IT'S EASY TO SAY THE CULTURE
NEEDS TO CHANGE ITS HARD TO DO
WHEN NOBODY IS LOOKING.
AND TO ALL MY MALE COLLEAGUES IN
THE CHAMBER I THINK A LOT OF THE
WORK THAT HAS TO BE DONE THAT WE
HAVE TO STEP UP AND DO IS THE
QUIET WORK WHEN NO ONE ELSE IS
WATCHING WHEN WHEN. WHEN WE'RE
BY OURSELVES.
ANIMATE SAME OURSELVES IN THE
LOCKER ROOM.
BUT.
WITH WITH NO CAMERAS ON.
AND.
JUST HAVING THAT KIND OF
INFORMAL DIALOGUE IT.
GUYS ARE BEEN HAVE BEEN FOR.
THOUSANDS OF YEARS.
BUT WE GOT IT WILL FALL.
AND I I WOULD SAY I'D WANT TO
RESTORE THE HONOR AND DIGNITY
THAT. THIS INSTITUTION ONCE HAD
WHEN IT COMES TO HOW WE TREAT
WOMEN WITH MUTUAL RESPECT BUT I
DON'T THINK THERE IS THAT HONOR
AND DIGNITY TO RESTORE BECAUSE
YOU GO BACK DECADES IN THIS
INSTITUTION IT WASN'T THERE.
THERE BEEN WOMEN DEALING WITH
THIS FOR DECADES AND DECADES AND
DECADES OF THIS IS NOT NEW.
UNFORTUNATELY MUST FIGHT THIS IN
NEW. AND USE NEW LEGAL TOOLS AND
POLICY TOOLS.
TO HELP BRING THAT FORTH BUT.
THAT THE DEEPER CHALLENGE HERE
IS.
THOSE TINY INTERSTITIAL MOMENTS
IS D. BEHAVE ARE ARE YOU BEING
IMAGE IT'S A VERY SIMPLE TEST.
IT'S ONE THAT MY GRANDMOTHER
TAUGHT ME ONE THAT WE ALL
LEARNED IN KINDERGARTEN AND IT'S
NOT THAT HARD.
IT'S REALLY NOT THAT HARD TO
MAKE A CHANGE AND SO IF PEOPLE
LOOKING OVER THEIR SHOULDER A
LITTLE BIT NOWADAYS THAT S.
BEFORE NINETEEN IS MOVING HIM.
AND SOME FOLKS ARE FEELING
UNCOMFORTABLE AND MAYBE IN
AFRAID SAME WHAT'D I DO WANT
GOOD.
WE NEED A LITTLE FEAR IN OUR
DIET RIGHT NOW. I THINK THAT'S
HEALTHY
BECAUSE WE NEED TO BE SHAKEN
INTO CHANGE RIGHT NOW. AND THAT
MOMENTS HERE SO I THANK MY
COLLEAGUE.
FROM LA KENYATTA FOR BRINGING
THIS FORWARD IN. THE TO THE
WOMEN'S CAUCUS FOR STEPPING UP
BUT.
THERE'S ONLY SO MUCH WE CAN DO
ON THIS FLOOR TALK IS CHEAP SO

THAT CENTERS SB SEVEN FOURTEEN
IS A DISTRICT BILL THAT WILL
CREATE THE WEST KILEY HILLS

TO SERVE AS THE BASIS FOR THE

REMAINING IN THIS DENSELY
POPULATED AREA LOCATED SQUARELY
IN THE MIDDLE OF A NUMBER OF
SMALL TO MEDIUM SIZED CITIES
THAT ARE CHRONICALLY UNDER
RESOURCE FOR PUBLIC PARKS. AS
WELL AS ACCESS TO OPEN SPACE
GENERALLY. THIS PARCEL LAND IS
ACTUALLY ALL THAT IS LEFT OF
WHAT WAS ORIGINALLY A TWENTY
EIGHT HUNDRED ACRE PARCEL THAT
WAS A SYMBOL OVER TIME. THROUGH
THE CONSOLIDATION OF A PATCHWORK
NETWORK OF SMALLER PARCELS
ORIGINALLY OWNED BY A COLLECTION
SMALL INDEPENDENT OPERATORS
DURING THE HEYDAY OF SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA'S CRUDE OIL BOOM.
THAT WE'RE FOR A TIME OUR STATE
WAS THE SINGLE LARGEST SOURCE OF
CRUDE OIL IN THE UNITED STATES.
OVER TIME THE MAJORITY OF THIS
LAND WAS SUBDIVIDED SOLD OFF AND
DEVELOPED AS PART OF A BROADER
INTENSIVE RESIDENTIAL
DEVELOPMENT WHICH HAS
CHARACTERIZED THE EVOLUTION OF
THE GREATER LOS ANGELES EXURBS.
OVER THE PAST FIVE DECADES
QUESTIONS AS TO WHETHER AND HOW
TO DEVELOP THIS CRITICAL PARTS
WILL HAVE BEEN AN ONGOING LOCAL
ISSUE FOR ALMOST THAT LONG. FROM
THE START OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF
THE ORIGINAL DRILLING HOLDINGS
IN NINETEEN OH THREE. A TOTAL OF
MORE THAN EIGHTY MILLION BARRELS

AREA STARTING WITH THE KINDS OF
PRIMITIVE GUSHER TYPE WELL AS
YOU SEE IN THE OLD PHOTOS WITH
CRUDE OIL AND DRILLING BY

ACROSS THE GROUNDS AND SEEPING
DIRECTLY INTO THE SOILS.
DURING THAT SAME PERIOD BEYOND
TOXIC RESIDUAL SLUDGE WAS ALSO
FREQUENTLY USED AS AN AGENT FOR
WE'D ABATEMENT ON THE
PROPERTIES.
AS A CONSEQUENCE THERE REMAIN
SIGNIFICANT OUTSTANDING CONCERNS
ABOUT RESIDUAL TOXICS IN THE
SOIL AND THE NEED FOR MORE
UPDATED ASSESSMENT WITH RESPECT
THE POSSIBLE IMPACT. ON
PROSPECTIVE FUTURE RESIDENTIAL
USES.

THE REDUCTION IN HABITAT CAUSED
BY DEVELOPMENT HAS BECAUSE WHAT
BIOLOGISTS DESCRIBED AS SEVERE
FRAGMENTATION OF THE SPECIES TO

GREAT CARE TO ACCEPT AND
CONSIDER INPUT FROM A WIDE RANGE

OF THE CITY COUNCIL AS A
CONSEQUENCE OF THOSE
CONVERSATIONS WE REMOVE LANGUAGE
IN THE BILL REGARDING EMINENT

ADDITION TO LISTENING TO YOUR
COLLEAGUES. THAT ONE'S GONE CAN
NEVER BE RECLAIMED OR RESTORED A
RESERVE WEST KATY HILL'S WILL
SERVE AS AN INVALUABLE OPEN

SEVEN FOURTEEN WILL ENSURE THAT
FUTURE GENERATIONS ARE ABLE TO
ENJOY ACCESS TO AN UNSPOILED
NATURAL HABITAT IN A REGION THAT
IS DESPERATELY LACKING. IN SUCH
TREASURES I RESPECTFULLY URGE AN
AYE VOTE TODAY.
THANK YOU SENATOR NEWMAN SENATOR
MORLOCK.
BUT THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT.
COLLEAGUES I LOVE OPEN SPACE.
AND PAY ME THAT'S WHY.
THESE SO WILD FIRES HAVE BEEN SO
PAINFUL.
THESE LAST FEW MONTHS.
BUT COLLEAGUES I WANTED MAYBE
TAKE A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE ON.
WEST COYOTE HILLS.
.
IF WE'RE GOING TO BE SERIOUS
ABOUT DEALING WITH A HOUSING
SHORTAGE.
THEN.
.
THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT BILL.
LAST YEAR WE DID SENATE BILL
THIRTY FIVE.
AND IT DISPLAYED THE
LEGISLATURE'S IMPATIENCE WITH
LIBYA'S THEM. AS IT RELATED TO
ACHIEVING ARENA.
NUMBERS.
SO I SEE THIS HIM I WANT TO LOOK
AT A LITTLE HARDER BUT I SEE
ADVOCATES OF DO AS I.
SAY NOT AS I DO.
WE GOTTA REMEMBER.
YOU CAN'T TALK AFFORDABLE
HOUSING.
WHEN YOU'RE KILLING THE MOVE UP
HOUSING.
I SEE IT IT'S A LITTLE
HYPOCRITICAL MADAM PRESIDENT.
WE VOTED FOR S. B. ARE A LOT OF
US SOME OF US VOTED FOR S. B.
TWO LAST YEAR. AND A AND A HOST
OF OTHER RELATED BILLS ON
AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
BUT I.
IF WE BOTH FOR THIS SENATE
PASSES THEN THEN MAYBE THE
PUBLIC HAS THE RIGHT TO ASSUME
THAT THIS SENATE SPEAKS OUT OF
BOTH SIDES OF ITS MOUTH.
PERCEPTION IS REALITY.
SO LET'S NOT. LET'S NOT.
IMPACT YOUR NEGATIVELY HURT YOUR
IMAGE OF TRYING TO DEAL WITH
HOUSING IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA.
WE ARE DEMANDING CITY COUNCIL
MEMBERS THE STAMP FIRM. ON LIBYA
FROM BEAR GETTING RECALL FOR
DOING THE RIGHT THING.
AND HERE WE ARE.
SKIRTING THE SAME
RESPONSIBILITY.
AND I THINK WE SHOULD BE VERY
CAREFUL.
AND HOW WE TREAT THIS BILL I
RECOMMENDED NO VOTE THANK YOU
MADAM PRESIDENT THANK YOU CENTER
MORE NOT SENATOR BATES.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT JUST A
FEW FACTS ON THE FULLER A LITTLE
CONFUSING TO ME ARE.
AND PREFACE THAT WITH I SERVED
ON THE ORANGE COUNTY
TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY WE ARE
ACTUALLY. ARE MADE TO.
VERY.
GOOD DEALS WITH DEVELOPERS WHO
WERE WILLING TO GIVE UP MUCH OF
THE ACREAGE THAT HAD BEEN
ENTITLED. A IN EXCHANGE FOR OB.
LAST PURCHASING THAT PROPERTY IS
ACTUALLY SETTING UP A FUND WE'RE
ABLE TO SET ASIDE ABOUT ELEVEN
HUNDRED ACRES INTO CONSERVANCY
OFF FOR ALL OF ORANGE COUNTY
WITH THE PROGRAM THAT PURCHASE
LAND. FROM DEVELOPERS WHO REDUCE
THEIR ENTITLEMENTS
I'M LOOKING OUT THE FACTS ON
THIS CASE WE HAVE FIVE HUNDRED
AND TEN ACRES THAT ARE IN THE
HOUSE. ARE AREA ONE HUNDRED AND
SEVENTY NINE ACRES ABOUT IS
CAUGHT COMMITTED TO THE
DEVELOPMENT OF HOUSING.
SO THE QUESTION TO THE AUTHOR IS
THREE HUNDRED AND THIRTY ONE
ACRES ARE LEFT WITH IS THE
INTENDED USE ABOUT. IS THAT
SCHEDULED FOR OPEN SPACE THAT
MIGHT EVEN BE ON OUR PART OF.
OUR THE APPROVAL OF THIS PROJECT
THAT THAT HAD TO BE SET ASIDE AS
OPEN SPACE.
DO YOU HAVE AN ANSWER CENTER
BASED DID YOU POSE THE QUESTION
NOTION QUITE AKIN NAM OF THE
AUTHOR SENATOR NEWMAN WOULD YOU
LIKE A QUICK TAKE A QUESTION
CERTAINLY HAVE IT AS A QUESTION.
SO THE CREATION THE CONSERVANCY
FOUND IN THIS CASE IS NOT MEANT
TO PRECLUDE THE DEVELOPMENT OF
THE HOUSING THAT'S PLAN. WHAT IT
WILL ENABLE IS IS THE ASSURANCE
THAT OVER TIME THE REMAINDER OF
THAT SPACE?
AS MY COLLEAGUE FROM THE
GOVERNOR. THAT MIGUEL MENTIONS
GUY WILL BE THAT.
TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE DIED
DEVELOP WITH AN EYE TOWARD
PRESERVATION OF OPEN SPACES TO
WHAT THE CONSERVANCY FRAMEWORK
WOULD DO. WHAT CREATED PLATFORM
TO CREATE A BETTER BASIS FOR
STAKEHOLDERS IN THE AREA? AND
THE PROPERTY HOLDER TO MAKE A
DEAL THAT IS IN THE BEST
INTEREST OF THE COMMUNITY AND
LENDS ITSELF TO THE PRESERVATION
OF THE MAX AMOUNT OF OPEN SPACE.
THANK YOU SIR NEWMAN CELEBRATES
ON MY OWN TIME IT WOULD SEEM TO
ME THAT THIS IS PREMATURE THEY
ON AYE IF THIS COMMUNITY IS
WORKING WITH THE DEVELOPER. TO
ENSURE THAT MORE DOWN THERE ARE
HALF I THINK IT'S ALMOST FORTY
PERCENT OF SIXTY PERCENT OF THE
PROPERTY. IS NOW IN DISCUSSION
TO BE PRESERVED FOR OPEN SPACE
AND A CONSERVANCY CAN FOLLOW
THAT WOULD SEEM TO ME WE SHOULD
LET THAT DEAL MATURE. BECAUSE
THEN WE ACCOMPLISH TO BOB.
TWO OF.
GOALS OF THIS HOUSE.
OPEN SPACE PRESERVATION AND THE
DEVELOPMENT OF HOUSING IN IN IN.
A STATE THAT IS DIRE REALLY IN
NEED WE'RE SAYING WE HAVE A HIGH
HOUSING CRISIS
SO I THINK THIS IS PREMATURE AND
I WOULD ALL ASTRONOMICAL.
THANK YOU SENATOR BATES SEE NO
FURTHER DISCUSSION OR DEBATE
SURNAME WOULD YOU LIKE TO CLOSE.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT THAT
SUIT TO MY COLLEAGUE FROM THAT
COSTA MESA I'D I'D LIKE TO POINT
OUT THAT IN IN THIS CASE I YOU
KNOW I DIED GUIDE. I RESPECT
YOUR COMMENTS
THE CITY HOUSING AND THE NEED TO
ENCOURAGE GOOD SOLID NATALIE
AFFORDABLE HOUSING POLICIES BUT
POLICIES THAT CREATE MARGARITAS
AS WELL. THIS BILL.
IN THIS EFFORT IS NOT ABOUT
HOUSING IS ABOUT THE
PRESERVATION OF OPEN SPACE DIED
THERE'S NOTHING ABOUT THIS BILL
THAT WOULD PRECLUDE THE
DEVELOPMENT OF HOUSING THAT'S
ALREADY PLANNED. AT THE GOAL IS
HERE IS TO CREATE A FRAMEWORK
FRAMEWORK THAT ALLOWS THE
COMMUNITY AND THE LAND HOLDER TO
COME TO THE BEST POSSIBLE BASIS
THAT SERVES THE INTEREST OF
FUTURE GENERATIONS. IN THE
PRESERVATION OF AS MUCH OPEN
SPACE AS POSSIBLE I RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR AN AYE VOTE. THANK YOU

DALY OWN ANACHRONISTIC
CONTRIBUTIONS TO TAKE EFFECTIVE
MERELY TAX LEVY.
SENATE ALIAUNE.
THANK YOU MUCH ABOUT A PERSON
COLLEAGUES I RISE IN SUPPORT.
OF SENATE BILL TWO TWO SEVEN.
BUT ONE OF TWO MEASURES DESIGNED
TO REDUCE THE NEGATIVE IMPACT OF
THE GOP TAX PLAN ON OUR STATE.
AS YOU ALL KNOW LATE LAST YEAR
REPUBLICANS IN WASHINGTON PA
PASS AN OVERHAUL. OF THE U. S.
TAX CODE THAT GIVES THE
WEALTHIEST AMERICANS AND
CORPORATIONS MORE THAN A WEEK.
ONE TRILLION DOLLARS IN TAX
BREAKS WHILE RAISING TAXES ON
MILLIONS OF HOUSEHOLDS.
THIS NEW LAW DELIVERY TARGETS
AMERICANS IN BLUE STATES AFFECT
BLUE DONOR STATES THAT DIDN'T
VOTE IN LARGE NUMBERS FOR DONALD
TRUMP.
THE COULD COST CALIFORNIANS
BILLIONS OF DOLLARS.
SPECIFICALLY THE NEW STATE IN
THE NEW LA I SHOULD SAY CAPS.
STATE AND LOCAL TAX DEDUCTION.
I'VE TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS THAT
IS A HARD CAP HARD SUING A TEN
THOUSAND DOLLARS AN HOUR.
TIP OF THE DOLLARS.
A MOVE THAT WOULD INCREASE TAXES
NATIONALLY BY THIRTY SIX BILLION
DOLLARS IN THE YEAR TWENTY
EIGHTEEN IN NINETY BILLION.
BY THE YEAR TWENTY TWENTY FOUR
NOT LET ME UNDERSCORE AGAIN THE
FOLLOWING POINTS.
A MOVE THAT WILL INCREASE TAXES.
ON AMERICANS.
BY THIRTY SIX BILLION IN TWENTY
EIGHTEEN. THIS YEAR AND NINETY
BILLION BY THE YEAR TWENTY
TWENTY FOUR.
IN THE YEAR TWENTY FIFTEEN THE
AVERAGE CALIFORNIAN.
TAXPAYER DEDUCTED OVER EIGHTEEN
THOUSAND DOLLARS IN THEIR SALT
FEDERAL RETURNS AT THE STATE AND
LOCAL TAXES ON THEIR FEDERAL
RETURNS.
UNDER THIS NEW PROPOSED UNDER
THIS NEW LAN ESTIMATE THREE
MILLION CALIFORNIANS TAXPAYERS
WILL LOSE OUT ON THOUSANDS OF
DOLLARS. A VIABLE DEDUCTIONS
EACH YEAR ON THEIR FEDERAL
TAXES.
SENATE BILL TWO TWO SEVEN GIVES
CALIFORNIA TAXPAYERS THE ABILITY
TO DIRECT A CHARITABLE
CONTRIBUTION.
TO PROVE VITAL STATE PROGRAMS
AND SERVICES SUCH AS KEY TO
TWELVE EDUCATION HIGHER
EDUCATION AND STATE PARKS.
THE BILL CREATES IN EIGHTY FIVE
EIGHTY FIVE PERCENT TAX CREDIT
FOR DONATIONS. MADE TO THE
CALIFORNIA EXCELLENCE FUND.
TAXPAYERS CAN THEN DEDUCT THE
FULL AMOUNT OF WHAT THAT OF THAT
DO NATION UNDER FEDERAL TAX
RETURNS.
AS ALLOWABLE BY THE IRS
AND AS THEY DID SO TRADITIONALLY
WHAT THE SALT.
THIS PROPOSAL IS BASED.
IN LARGE PART ON THE COLLEGE
ACCESS TAX CREDIT THAT I
AUTHORED IN TWENTY FOURTEEN.
THAT MANY OF OUR COLLEAGUES IN
FACT USE A BIPARTISAN VOTE.
THAT SUPPORTED THAT WAS A FIFTY
PERCENT TAX CREDIT.
GOOD WHICH ALLOWED CAL POINTS TO
MAKE CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTIONS TO
THE CAL GRANT PROGRAM.
IT ALSO BILLS ON SUCCESSFUL
MODELS ALREADY IN PLACE MORE
THAN THIRTY STATES ACROSS THE
NATION.
SENATE BILL TWO TWO SEVEN GETS
TAXPAYERS A MEASURE OF CONTROL
OVER THE TAX DOLLARS THE BEST IN
CALIFORNIA.
BUT IT JUST IS A POORLY IT ALSO
BLOOD SO NEGATIVE IMPACT
REPUBLICAN TAX PLAN ON OUR
STATE.
NOW RECENT AMENDMENTS IN SENATE
BILL FIVE EIGHT ONE THE RECENT
AMENDMENTS AND FIVE EIGHT ONE.
WHICH IS IN THE SIMPLY OF RIGHT
NOW AND THE COMPARISON THE
COMPANION BILL TO THIS MEASURE
IT WILL ENSURE THAT PROP NINETY
EIGHT. IS HELD A HARMLESS THE
FACT WITH THE REDUCTION NOW FOR
ONE HUNDRED PERCENT.
TWO EIGHTY FIVE PERCENT THE
CREDIT WILL PROVIDE FACT
ADDITIONAL FUNDS TO OUR SCHOOLS
AND UNIVERSITIES.
A WE HAD A VERY ROBUST DEBATE IN
THE US OF THE.
.
LOCAL GOVERNMENT.
IN FINANCE OF COMMITTEE AND WE
HAVE SOME VERY GOOD DISCUSSION
POINT SO WITH MY REPUBLICAN
COLLEAGUES AS WELL.
MADAM LE PRESENTS AND
COLLEAGUES ASSEMBLY ASK FOR AN
AYE VOTE.
THANK YOU CENTER DELEON.
SENATOR MORLOCK.
BUT YOU BETTER PRESIDENT I.
.
WAS A YOUNG PARTNER.
IN NINETEEN EIGHTY SIX WHEN THE
TAX REFORM ACT WAS INTRODUCED
UNDER THE REAGAN ADMINISTRATION
INTO. WAS IT. WAS A MASSIVE TAX
BILL WE HAVE BEEN SEEMING LIKE
IT UNTIL JUST.
DECEMBER OF A VICIOUS PAST YEAR.
I EN DIE IT WAS A REAL
INTERESTING.
.
SAID A NEW RULES LIMITATIONS
PASSIVE LOSS RULES OF FEDERER.
SO I'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE.
BUT.
.
I JUST WANTED.
REACT.
TO THE AUTHORED ON A COUPLE
POINTS AND WE'VE TALKED ABOUT
THIS PRIVATELY BUT. WE'RE MOVING
TOLD THAT IT SEEMS LIKE EVERY
TOPIC THAT COMES UP SOMEHOW WE
HAVE TO BRING IN PARTISANSHIP.
AND I'VE BEEN TOLD.
WE SHOULDN'T BE SHOOTING DARTS.
BUT WILL COLLEAGUES THIS IS NOT
A DARK IN THIS WHOLE BILL IS A
MISSILE.
SHOOTING AT WASHINGTON DC.
AND IT WILL NOT STAND.
THE HIGHER PRESS WILL NOT STAND
YOU CANNOT TAKE IT WELL.
YOU YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE
A TERRIBLE DEDUCTION ON YOUR
FEDERAL RETURN AND NOT BE ABLE
TO DO IT ON YOUR STATE RETURN.
IT'S
IT'S.
IT'S IT'S IT'S JUST NOT GONNA
WORK.
SO YOU'RE STARTED GIVING FALSE
HOPE T A LOT OF PEOPLE. AND SO
YOU'RE ALSO PROBABLY GOING TO
CREATE SOME LIABILITY EXPOSURE
SO WITH THAT I WOULD JUST URGE A
NO VOTE THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT.
THANK YOU SENATOR MORLOCK SOONER
NGUYEN.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT I AM I
SUPPORT EASY THAT TAX BIRD
CALIFORNIANS WITH THIS BILL.
HOWEVER I STILL HAVE THE SAME
CONCERNS AS I HAD WHEN THIS BILL
CAME BEFORE ME AND GOVERNOR'S OF
FINANCE COMMITTEE. I AM STILL
CONCERNED WITH THAT THIS BILL
STILL DOES NOT GUARANTEE FUNDING
PROTECTION FOR OUR SCHOOLS BE A
PROP NINETY EIGHT. AND I
UNDERSTAND APPRECIATE THE
COMPANION BILL BUT THIS IS
THAT'S NOT THE BILL WOULD VOTING
ON TODAY WE'RE NOT VOTING ON THE
COMPANION BILL WE'RE VOTING ON.
SP TWO TWO SEVEN PLACE. I WANT
TO MAKE SURE THAT FUNDING FOR
OUR CHILDREN'S EDUCATION IS
PROTECTED BECAUSE OF THAT I
CANNOT SUPPORT THE BILL IN ITS
CURRENT FORM TODAY THANK YOU.
THANK YOU SENATOR NGUYEN SENATOR
MCGUIRE.
THANK YOU SO MUCH BETTER
PRESIDENT IN MEMBERS AT.
PERFECTLY RISE IN SUPPORT OF SB.
TWO TWO SEVEN.
WHICH I BELIEVE REPRESENTS AN
INNOVATIVE WAY FOR THE GOLDEN
STATE.
TO ADJUST TO THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT'S CONTINUED TARGETING
CANDIDLY CONTINUE TARGETING. OF
CALIFORNIA.
AND OUR WAY OF LIFE.
WE PROVED S. B. TWO TWO SEVEN IN
GOVERNANCE AND FINANCE.
AFTER ROBUST DEBATE.
AND GREATLY APPRECIATE THE VICE
CHAIR AND. AMAZING MEMBER FROM
ORANGE COUNTY WAS ON THAT
COMMITTEE. FOR THEIR DISCUSSION.
BUT THAT ROBUST DEBATE FOCUSED.
ON WHERE THE KIND OF ABOUT THE
COUNTRY'S TOP TECH SECTOR TAX
EXPERTS.
THEY IN EVAN FACT ENDORSE THIS
IDEA.
WE'VE HEARD SOME.
BOGUS ARGUMENTS IN NATIONAL
MEDIA.
BUT THIS BILL WON'T HELP MIDDLE
INCOME CALIFORNIANS.
TWO WORDS.
HOW TO WASH?
THE FACTS ARE THAT A MARRIED
COUPLE HERE IN CALIFORNIA.
PAY ABOUT A NINE POINT THREE
PERCENT INCOME TAX RATE ON
INCOME ABOVE A HUNDRED AND TEN
THOUSAND DOLLARS.
HUNDRED AND TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS
IF YOU LIVE IN.
SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA OF THE
INLAND EMPIRE THE GREATER LA
REGION. SIMPLY IS NOT THAT MUCH
MONEY BETTER SURVIVAL.
THIS SIMPLE BACK OF THE ENVELOPE
MATH MEANS IT THESE TAXPAYERS
CAN BENEFIT FROM S. B. TWO TWO
SEVEN.
EVEN IF THEY DON'T OWN PROPERTY.
I THINK WHAT'S ALSO IMPORTANT TO
POINT OUT.
UNDER THAT BACK OF THE ENVELOPE
MATHIS.
IS THAT IF YOU'RE A MARRIED
COUPLE MAKING A HUNDRED AND TEN
THOUSAND DOLLARS YOU ARE WELL ON
YOUR WAY TO THAT TEN THOUSAND
DOLLAR CAP. IN FACT YOU'VE
ALREADY HIT THAT NINE THOUSAND
DOLLAR THRESHOLD INTO THE NEWLY
IMPOSED TEN THOUSAND DOLLAR CAP.
AND THAT'S EXCLUDING BUT YOU'RE
GONNA HAVE TO PAY A PROPERTY
TAX.
I THINK HELPING OUT. HELPING OUT
THE CAN AFFORD TO OWN A HOME.
IS A RISK THAT THIS LEGISLATURE
MUST TAKE.
THESE FAMILIES SHOULD HAVE BEEN
ABLE TO COUNT A SHOULD BEEN ABLE
TO COUNT ON AN UNCAPPED
DEDUCTION FOR STATE AND LOCAL
TAXES WHICH I WANT TO POINT OUT
HAS BEEN IN PLACE.
AND PART OF THE FEDERAL INCOME
TAX SINCE NINETEEN NINETEEN.
THERE IS NO MISSILE THAT'S BEEN
MARCH BY CALIFORNIA. PERSON PLEA
REACTING.
TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WHO IS
PLACE A TARGET SQUARELY ON OUR
BACK. WOULD RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR
AN AYE VOTE ON SP TWO TWO SEVEN.
THANK YOU SENATOR MCGUIRE.
SENATOR GAINES.
THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR MEMBERS
AND.
.
I APPRECIATE LE SENATOR DELEON.
HEARING THIS BILL FORWARD.
AND TECH CLEARLY.
WE'RE CHALLENGING THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA.
WITH OUR TAXES.
AMONG THE HIGHEST TAXES.
IN THE NATION AND ANY RELIEF.
OFF FOR TAXPAYERS IS POSITIVE IN
MY MIND.
BUT I DO HAVE SOME CONCERNS A
OF THE.
BILL UNITS.
CURRENT FORM AND IT'S MY
UNDERSTANDING THAT SENATE BILL.
FIVE EIGHTY ONE WILL BE MOVING
FORWARD THAT WOULD ADDRESS THE
PROP NINETY EIGHT ISSUES SO.
AT THIS POINT I'M GOING TO LAY
OFF AND.
A LOOK FOR I THINK WILL BE A
DIFFERENT VERSION COMING BACK
THE SENATE THANK YOU THANK YOU
SENATOR GAINES CENTER STONE.
THINK ABOUT PRESIDENT I
APPRECIATE THE COMMENTS ON THE
FEDERAL TAX PLANNED.
INSANE CERTAINLY.
WERE ALL SENSITIVE TO SOME OF
THE IMPACTS ON THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA BUT THERE'S ALSO THE
VERY POSITIVE ASPECTS OF THAT
TAX PLAN WHICH INCLUDE THE
FEDERAL.
STANDARD.
DEDUCTION BEING DOUBLED WHICH
IS GOING TO GREATLY HELP THE
MIDDLE AND LOWER CLASS SO LOWER
INCOME CLASS.
CITIZENS IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA.
BUT I WANT TO STAND UP TODAY AND
I WANT TO COMMEND THE PRO TEM.
ON HIS INGENUITY AND CREATING
AND HELPING THE RICHEST OF THE
RICH.
BUT THIS BILL STILL FALLS WELL
SHORT OF BEING A REAL SOLUTION
TO OUR HIGH STATE INCOME TAXES
THE HIGHEST.
IN THE COUNTRY HERE IN THE
GOLDEN STATE.
THE FEDERATION OF THE TAX CODE
ELIMINATED TWO VERY IMPORTANT
POINTS.
ONE WE HAVE THE HIGHEST STATE
INCOME TAX IN THE COUNTRY WHICH
HAS MADE IT EASY.
FOR THE OTHER SIDE OF THE AISLE
TO.
RAISE THOSE TAXES WE SAW A
TEMPORARY CREASE IN THE STATE
INCOME TAXES WHICH BECAME A
PERMANENT INCREASE IN THE STATE
INCOME TAXES AND. HE MISSED THE
DUBIOUS DISTINCTION OF HAVING
THE HIGHEST INCOME TAXES.
IN THE COUNTRY. WITH THE
UNDERSTANDING OF THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT IS PROBABLY GOING TO
BE SUBSIDIZING FORTY PERCENT OF
THAT SO IF YOU HAVE ABOUT.
FIVE HIGH A COMPACT STATES IN
THE CALIFORNIA IN YOUR LIVING IN
THE OTHER STATES WHY IN THE
WORLD. WOULD YOU EXPECT OTHER
CITIZENS AND OTHER STATES HAVE
TO SUBSIDIZE THE HIGH TAXES OF
THE TATE OF CALIFORNIA. BECAUSE
WE HAVE AN ADDICTION TO SPENDING
PROBLEM HERE IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA.
SO.
THE OTHER STATES DO NOT HAVE.
A CITY COMPACTS LIKE TAXES AND
TENNESSEE VADA WASHINGTON.
OR STATES THAT HAVE A MUCH LOWER
AN ACCEPTABLE STATE INCOME TAX
SUCH AS ARIZONA AROUND FIVE
PERCENT.
THEY JUST DON'T WANNA SUBSIDIZE
OURS AND JUSTIFIABLY SO I WOULD
WANT TO SUBSIDIZE THEIR STATE
INCOME TAXES EITHER.
BUT RATHER THEM STEP BACK IN
EQUILIBRIUM.
AND LOWER ON HIGH INCOME TAX
RATE TO HELP THOSE AT THE LOWER
END OF THE INCOME TAX SPECTRUM.
WE ARE ALL HERE TODAY TO EMBRACE
A SCHEME. THAT HELPS THE
HOLLYWOOD ELITE MEGA
MILLIONAIRES AND PUTS WORKING
FAMILIES IN HARM'S WAY.
OF AN IRS ON IT AUDITS NOT
LIMITED BUT INCLUDING.
HEINOUS PENALTIES.
AN INTEREST.
WE SHOULD NOT SUPPORT THIS PLAN
THAT WILL GIVE FALSE HOPES.
TOUR STRUGGLING WORKING CLASS
AND MIDDLE CLASS CONSTITUENTS
THAT WHAT ACTUALLY.
PAY LESS FEDERAL TAXES BUT WHAT
IS ACTUALLY LEGALLY DO.
THIS BILL AND POTENTIAL LAW
FLIES IN THE FACE.
FOR OUR ATTORNEYS AGAIN ON THE
FLOOR.
IN THE SUPREME COURT CASE OF
COMMISSIONER VERSES DUBERSTEIN
AND NINETEEN SIXTY.
BUT HERE'S THE LEGAL REASONS WHY
THE SAKE I DON'T WORK.
ACCORDING TO DUBERSTEIN TO
QUALIFY THE TRANSFER MUST BE
MOTIVATED BY DETACHED AND DIS
INTERESTED.
GENEROSITY.
SO WAS I MEAN.
THE GENERALLY ACCEPTED
DEFINITION THAT A CHARITABLE
CONTRIBUTION OF A TRANSFER OF
MONEY OR PROPERTY TO A
PERMISSIBLE DONI.
THAT EXCEEDS THE VALUE OF THOSE
GOODS OR SERVICES OR TO THEY'RE
BENEFITS PROVIDED BY THE DON'T
NEED TO THE TAXPAYER. PROVIDED
THAT THE TAXPAYER INTENDS TO
MAKE A GIFT OF SUCH ACCESS.
IN OTHER WORDS.
A TAXPAYER TRANSFER MONEY OR
PROPERTY THAT EXCEEDS THE VALUE
OF ANY RETURN BENEFIT.
TO THAT RESPECTIVE TAXPAYER.
HINTS.
IF WE HAVE A TAXPAYER THAT MAKES
FIVE HUNDRED GRAND A YEAR.
THEY FIND THEMSELVES IN THE
THIRTEEN POINT THREE PERCENT TAX
BRACKET. THEIR CALIFORNIA INCOME
TAX LIABILITIES CAN BE ABOUT
SIXTY SIX THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED
DOLLARS.
ONE YOU CANNOT MAKE A CHARITABLE
CONTRIBUTION FOR THE SAME
BECAUSE THE TAX IS. MANDATORY BY
LAW DOES NOT DISCRETIONARY IT IS
MANDATORY.
AND ABOVE THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY DO
HATS.
THE TAXPAYER CAN CALL IT A
CHARITABLE DONATION.
WHICH HE CAN DO OR SHE CAN DO.
BUT THE TAXPAYER RECEIVE THE
SAME AMOUNT OF VALUE ANTS.
IT CANCELS OUT ANY TAX
SAVINGS.
SO LET'S NOT LEAD OUR CITZENS
DOWN THE WRONG PATH.
TO SUMMARIZE VOTING YES ON THIS
BILL WILL GIVE FALSE HOPE TO OUR
TAXPAYERS THAT THEY WILL PASS.
THEY WILL PAY LESS.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES.
TAXPAYERS IT EMBRACES POTENTIAL
RECEIVE NO REMEDIES FROM THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA. WHEN THEY
GET THAT ENVELOPE FROM THE IRS.
CLAIMING THAT THE GONNA COME
UNDER AUDIT.
AND IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE
PENALTIES AND INTEREST A COME
ALONG WITH THOSE BACK TAXES.
THEY ARE EXTREMELY HIGH INTO
POTENTIALLY DEVASTATING SOME OF
OUR WORKING CLASS AND MIDDLE
CLASS FAMILIES INCLUDING ALL
BACK TAXES.
PENALTIES AND INTEREST.
MY FRIENDS. THIS IS POLITICAL
PANDERING AT BEST.
IT WILL BE ANY LEGAL DEDUCTION
SUPPORTED BY THE DUBERSTEIN CASE
AND AS SUCH WE SHOULD
COLLECTIVELY. REJECT.
INSTEAD OF HELPING THE RICHEST
OF THE RICH. TO WRITE OFF THEIR
MANSIONS AND PRIVATE JETS.
WE SHOULD WORK TO LOWER THE
TAXES.
OF OUR CITIZENS THAT ARE
STRUGGLING WITH ALL THE OTHER
TAXES THAT WE PASSED IN THE PAST
FEW YEARS. AND MAYBE. MAYBE GIVE
BACK SOME OF THE SEVEN POINT
FIVE BILLION DOLLARS IN EXCESS
THAT WE FIND THIS YEAR. THEY
HELP THE AVERAGE MEN AND WOMEN
IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA MAKE
ENDS MEET. FOR THOSE REASON MADS
PARTISAN IRE RJ NO VOTE ON SP
TWO TWO SEVEN LET'S NOT FOOL OUR
CONSTITUENTS.
THANK YOU CENTER STONE CENTER
NIELSEN.
MADAM PRESIDENT LAYS DAEDALUS
SENATE I. WOULD URGE NO VOTE.
INDEED THIS IS CREATING.
ALMOST IN MUSICALLY CREATED.
SO WE'RE GONNA TAX THE RICH AND
WE'VE GOT THE PROBLEM BECAUSE
CALIFORNIA.
TAXES SO MUCH.
AND THE RICH.
DON'T TIMES I'M AMUSED AT THAT
AS WELL.
WHO ARE THESE RICH?
THE FILTHY WRETCHES MY BOLD
EXECUTIVE OFFICER USED TO SAY
THE FILTHY RICH.
WELL.
IT'S A.
MAN AND WOMAN HUSBAND OR WIFE
FOR EXAMPLE.
THEY STARTED A SMALL BUSINESS.
THEY'VE WORKED HARD.
AND THEY'VE PROSPERED.
NOW THEY'VE MOVED INTO THAT
CATEGORY.
OF THE RICH.
THEY'RE AFFECTED BY THIS.
THE TWO.
FAMILY TO PERSON FAMILY
PROFESSIONAL PROFESSIONALS.
WHO?
ARE DOING THEIR JOB.
SUCCEEDING DRIVING IN THEIR
PROFESSION.
THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY BECOME
RICH.
IT'S ALWAYS THE RICH.
AND HOW MANY TAXES DO WE HAVE.
CLICK MENTAL HEALTH THEIR FOR
GREAT WONDERFUL IDEAS.
THE TAX THE RICH.
IT CALIFORNIA'S DISADVANTAGE.
SO.
NOT FILE IN WASHINGTON DC FILE
IN CALIFORNIA.
HOW OUR STATE LEGISLATURE VOTE?
THEN GOVERNOR SIGNS BILLS.
THAT MAKE US UNCOMPETITIVE BUT
NONE ATTRACTIVE.
WE'RE BUSINESSES.
AND THRIVING AND PROSPERING.
HARD WORKING CALIFORNIA'S.
AND BY THE WAY WE.
THIS STATE.
REALLY NAILS.
THE MIDDLE INCOME.
THAT'S STRUGGLING FOR OF ALL
CLASSES.
NEVER MORE SO THAN WITH THE GAS
TAX.
AND THE VEHICLE TAX.
WHICH CALIFORNIANS THAT'S
INDEXED.
THAT GOES UP ON YOU.
WITHOUT ANY VOTE.
BUT YOU'RE ACCOUNTABLE
LEGISLATORS.
THE HIDDEN.
AUTOMATIC TAX INCREASE.
THAT WAS THE BANE OF THE SIXTIES
AND THE SEVENTIES AND THE
EIGHTIES THE CREEPING CALLS.
THE INFECTED OUR BUDGET.
AND I USUALLY HARSH WORDS.
PURPOSELY.
AND THERE WERE SO MANY
COMPLAINTS ABOUT AND FINALLY A
RECOGNITION.
WE CALL IT OUR SELVES.
THE BUDGET DEFICIT.
AND THAT WAS A RESTING BACK.
BUT THE COLORS.
NOW.
WERE PROSPERS AGAIN.
HARDLY.
IT'S GOOD THAT WE DO HAVE SOME.
RESERVE.
AND THAT MAY WELL AS THE
GOVERNOR ADVISED.
THE LAST YEAR'S IN THESE.
BUDGETS.
BE PRUDENT.
A CAREFUL.
WE'RE ON THE PRECIPICE.
WE CAN FALL BACK IN THE FORTY
FIVE BILLION DOLLAR.
DEFICIT AGAIN.
VERY EASILY.
AND IT'S ALSO GETTING AMUSING TO
SEE HOW PREOCCUPIED OUR
LEGISLATURE IS WITH BASHING
WASHINGTON DC.
LIKE NEVER BEFORE.
I MAY NOT HAVE LIKED.
PREVIOUS.
ADMINISTRATION.
AND AYE MAN MY SPEECHES BEEN
CRITICAL.
BUT NOT SO PASSIONATELY AND
WILDLY SO WITH SUCH INFLATED
RHETORIC.
AND I SAY AGAIN AND AGAIN HERE
AND.
YOU PROBABLY WATCH ME IN
COMMITTEE.
THERE ARE LEGISLATORS COMPLAIN
ABOUT SOMETHING AND THEY HAVE
WITNESSES OUT THERE AND THEY
POINT TO THEM.
WHATEVER THAT DESIGNATED ENEMY
OF THE DAY YEARS.
I ADMONISH MY COLLEAGUES.
DON'T POINT THAT WAY.
POINT THIS WAY.
THIS LEGISLATURE CREATED PROP.
THIS IS GOING TO TRY TO FIX
SOMETHING.
BUT THIS LEGISLATURE.
BROKE.
BY OVER TAXES.
THAT OUGHT NOT BE SOMETHING
WE'RE PROUD OF.
TO BE IN THE FOR IN AMERICA.
AS THE MOST TAXED.
AND REGULATING.
STATE.
I THINK A LOT OF CALIFORNIANS.
AB DARDEN DID GET THAT FIGURED
OUT.
AND REALIZING THE IMPACT ON THEY
AND THEIR FAMILIES.
AND THEY'RE READY NOW TO SAVE
MONEY.
ENOUGH.
NO MUST.
I HEARD YOU KNOW WHAT.
THANK YOU SENATOR NIELSEN
SENATOR HUESO.
THANK YOU I RISE IN SUPPORT OF
THIS BILL.
AND TO SIMPLY STATE I MEAN I IS
IS JUST.
UNBELIEVABLE UNBELIEVABLE TO
MANY STAND HERE TO HEAR THESE
ARGUMENTS.
IT IS REALLY HARD TO STOMACH.
CALIFORNIANS BASICALLY
DISPARAGING THEIR STATE ON THIS.
THIS CONCEPT THAT.
THIS IS.
.
A PARTISAN MEASURES JUST
SHOCKING TO ME ESPECIALLY WHEN
YOU LOOK AT THE FACTS.
WHAT OF THE FAXLESS LIST LIST
CONTEMPLATE THE FACTS?
WE WOULDN'T BE HERE TODAY
DISCUSSING THIS IN TRYING TO
FIND WAYS TO NAVIGATE.
THE THE THE RECKLESSNESS THE TOP
OF THAT'S HAPPENING RIGHT NOW IN
WASHINGTON.
AND PUTTING OUR STATE OUR
COUNTRY AT RISK.
YOU KNOW THEM.
YOU KNOW TALK ABOUT FALSE HOPES
IN GIVING PEOPLE FALSE HOPES
TELLING THEM BY REDUCING THAT
FOR THE TAXES ON THE ULTRA RICH
WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT MIDDLE
CLASS ONLY MODEST HOMES. WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT BILLION THERE'S
OWNING CASTLES.
MILLIONAIRES THAT OWN THOUSANDS
OF ACRES IN CALIFORNIA SIMPLY SO
THEY CAN GO DUCK HUNTING.
AND USE THAT LAND FOR NO OTHER
PURPOSE.
DENNIS SATISFY THEIR PLEASURE TO
GO DUCK HUNTING.
I MEAN THESE ARE FILTHY FILTHY
RICH PEOPLE.
AND AND THAT'S
THE PEOPLE THAT DESERVE A TAX
BREAK BY WASHINGTON STANDARDS.
AND THEN TELLING PEOPLE.
FALSELY GIVING THEM HOPES THAT
BY REDUCING THE TAX US OF THE
RICH THAT ALL OF A SUDDEN GOING
TO BE THIS CREATION OF JOBS.
THAT ARGUMENT STARTED IN THE
EIGHTIES WITH REAGAN WHAT HE DID
GIVE A TAX BREAK TO THE RICH AND
WHAT HAPPENED. THE NATIONAL DEBT
INCREASED.
AND THEN IT STARTED WITH BUSH
ON THE ULTRA RICH AND WHAT
HAPPENED.
THE THE NATIONAL DEBT ROSE TO
SEVENTY FIVE PERCENT OF GDP.
SEVENTY FIVE PERCENT OF GDP
BECAUSE WELL WHILE YOU.
WELL THAT THE RIGHT LIKES TO
TALK THE TALK ABOUT THE LEFT AS
TAX AND SPEND.
THE THE THE.
THE THE CONSERVATIVES OF TODAY
ARE NOT THE CONSERVE AS OF
YESTERDAY THE CONSERVATIVE
TODAY.
OUR OUR TAX LESS AN INCREASE
SPENDING WITHOUT THE REVENUE.
AND WHAT HAPPENS
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PUT YOUR
COUNTRY IN THAT POSITION.
THE NATIONAL DEBT INCREASES
INCREASES THE NATIONAL DEFICIT
INCREASES.
I THOUGHT WERE REPUBLICANS WERE
ABOUT REDUCING THE DEFICIT
REDUCING THE DEBT.
REDUCING THE FOOTPRINT OF
GOVERNMENT WE HAVEN'T SEEN THAT.
UNDER UNDER REAGAN UNDER BUSH
WON UNDER BUSH TO. AND NOW UNDER
TRUMP THE SAME EXACT THING.
REDUCE TAXES ON THE ULTRA RICH.
AND INCREASE GOVERNMENT SPENDING
HE WANTS INCREASE THE DEFENSE
BUDGET BY TWENTY PERCENT. AND
THAT IS THE BIGGEST PART OF THE
NATIONAL BUDGET WE CAN AFFORD
IT.
IT'S TIME IF YOU'RE GOING TO
GIVE THE ULTRA RICH A TAX BREAK
IT'S TIME TIME TO START CUTTING.
ON THE BUDGET THAT THE ONLY
PEOPLE THAT HAVE SEEN CUTS FROM
THE BUDGET OF THE POOR.
THE WORKING POOR.
THE MENTALLY ILL.
KIDS THAT NEED A QUALITY
EDUCATION.
THESE HAVE BECOME THE ENEMIES OF
THIS GOVERNMENT AND YOU TALK
ABOUT HOPE.
THAT IS YOUR CONCEPT OF
PROVIDING HOPE TO PEOPLE SAYING
LET'S THEY'RE SUFFERING IN THIS
COUNTRY.
I'M SORRY.
THAT THAT IS THE ABSOLUTE WRONG
MESSAGE TO GIVE PEOPLE THAT THAT
IS HOPE IN AMERICA NO IT'S NOT.
BECAUSE NOW UNDER THIS NATIONAL
TAX MEASURE.
OUR COUNTRY WOULD GLOW GO TO A
HUNDRED PERCENT.
DEBT OF GDP.
THE ENTIRE EVERYTHING THAT
EVERYBODY HOMES IN THIS COUNTRY.
EVERY CAR EVERY HOUSE ALL OF OUR
INCOME EVERYTHING THE COUNTRY IS
WORTH. WILL NOW BE OWED.
BY THE GOVERNMENT.
WHERE'S THE OUTRAGE
CONSERVATIVES.
WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE?
IN THIS BILL. WE'RE SIMPLY
MAKING AN ADJUSTMENT.
TO A NATIONAL COME CALAMITY
SENATOR HUESO YES SORRY MIKE
MIKE ISN'T WORKING CENTER MERLE
BEEN LISTENING TO THE SENATE FOR
SAN DIEGO FOR I DON'T TEN
MINUTES TALK ABOUT. THE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION A FEDERAL BILL I
THINK THIS WAS ABOUT TO SENATORS
BILL FROM LA MY RIGHT OR WRONG
ON IT YOUR POINT IS WELL TAKEN
COULD YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN TO HIM
WHAT THEY'LL. BE TALKING BETTER
HUESO IF YOU COULD PLEASE NOW
POINT WE'D APPRECIATE IT BUT I
OBVIOUSLY TOUCHED A NERVE MADAM
PRESIDENT THAT'S WHAT THIS IS
ABOUT BECAUSE STANDPOINT OF THE
BILL PLEASE YES THANK YOU.
BUT GETTING TO MY POINT ON THE
BILL THANK YOU THIS BILL IS
SIMPLY. OF A GOOD PUBLIC POLICY
THAT ADDRESSES.
A GROWING PROBLEM AT OUR
NATIONAL GOVERNMENT THAT'S.
CREATING A PROBLEM WITH OUR
STATE'S ABILITY TO FUND OUR OWN
GOVERNMENT I WANT TO REMIND
EVERYBODY.
THAT.
RELEVANT TO THIS BILL.
CALIFORNIA SUBSIDIZES THE THE
REST OF THE COUNTRY AND THE
AMOUNT OF MONEY WE WE SENT TO
THE NATIONAL GOVERNMENT.
AND THERE ARE SPENDING WILDLY.
BEN AND NOT FINDING SOURCES OF
REVENUE TO KEEP THE COUNTRY.
GOVERNMENT FLUSH.
TO KEEP OUR ECONOMY THE NUMBER
ONE ECONOMY I WANNA REMIND THEM
AGAIN BECAUSE I KEEP FORGETTING
CALIFORNIA IS THEM. THE MOST
VIBRANT ECONOMY IN THE COUNTRY
IT'S THE NUMBER ONE ECONOMY IT'S
THE LARGEST JOB CREATORS WERE
SIMPLY WORKING TO KEEP.
OUR GOVERNMENT WORKING SOUNDLY.
SO WITH THAT WE CAN CONTINUE TO
EDUCATE THE PEOPLE OF OUR STATE
THIS.
BILL WILL HELP US TO EDUCATE
MORE PEOPLE THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA LET'S STAND UNITED
AND FIGHT FOR CALIFORNIA WAS
STAND UNITED FAT FIGHT FOR
CALIFORNIANS. THIS IS A
WONDERFUL MEASURE MEASURES
SHOULD BE BIPARTISAN.
THANK YOU SENATOR HUESO SEEING
NO FURTHER DISCUSSION OR DEBATE
SENATOR DALY ON WOULD YOU LIKE
TO CLOSE.
BIGGER MUCH UP MEDI PRESENT AT
COLLEAGUES FIGURE MUCH FOR THE
VERY ROBUST DEBATE DESTRUCTIBLE
POINTS THAT I WANNA. THE
HIGHLIGHTS AND THEN.
WE CAN GET TO A VOTE AND I
THINK WE'RE GONNA.
SHUT DOWN SHOP ASSUME UNTIL
THURSDAY MORNING.
ONE IS IS.
.
BUT.
WITH REGARDS TO THE REFERENCES
TO.
.
THOSE WHO.
WITH THE CHIEF ARCHITECTS OF
THE.
.
THE TAX POLICY BILL IN DECEMBER
OF LAST YEAR. BOMB THERE'S NO
WAY TO GO AROUND IT.
BECAUSE THOSE WHO WERE THE
ARCHITECTS OF THIS MEASURE.
.
THE PRESIDENT SAYS WILL THE
LEADERS OF THE RESPECTIVE HOUSES
OF THE DUAL CHAMBERS OF THE
HOUSE OF THE CONGRESS.
ARE REPUBLICANS AND AYE I. I
CAN'T CALL THEM DEMOCRATS
BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT DEMOCRATS
THEY ARE REPUBLICANS IS IT'S
DIFFICULT TO GET AROUND AND MAKE
REFERENCE TO.
THIS UP TAX PROPOSAL.
WHICH IT IS SO THAT THAT THAT'S
LOOK TOUGH TO GET AROUND YOU
KNOW. BEFORE FACTUAL PURPOSES OF
FOR IDENTIFICATION PURPOSES NAPA
CALLED WHAT IT IS.
BUT THAT THAT'S HENCE THE
REFERENCE FUND TO BE. PARTISAN
OVERLY PARTISAN BUT JUST A STATE
WITHOUT THE FACTS.
.
THERE GOES DELEON HELPING THE
RICH AGAIN.
FOR SOME EVER HEARD THAT ONE
BEFORE HERE NOW. I MAY NEED A
LITTLE MORE THAT YOU KNOW THE
HELP ME OUT YOU KNOW IN THE NEAR
FUTURE SO I APPRECIATE THAT
RIGHT THERE NONE THE LESS.
BUT IT IF YOU ARE OH OH WORKING
FAMILIES IF YOU ARE. A.
THE COUPLE
TO SCHOOL TEACHERS.
THE TEACHER. REGISTERED NURSE.
FAMILY FOR.
THE OUT PROPERTY HOUSE FIVE
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS BUT YOU
BENEFIT FROM THIS MEASURE.
THE FACT WE HAVE THREE ESTIMATED
THREE MILLION.
CALIFORNIANS WILL BENEFIT FROM
THIS MEASURE.
THREE MILLION CALIFORNIANS WHO
ARE POISED TO HAVE THEIR TAXES
RAISED.
THREE MILLION CALIFORNIANS WHO
ARE BOTH DEMOCRATS.
AS WELL AS REPUBLICANS
THEY RESIDE IN TEMECULA
RIVERSIDE. THEY RESIDE IN THE
CENTRAL VALLEY THE RECITAL
SENSUAL SERVICE SCIENCE UP TO
SCHOOL THERE WAS AYE ALL OVER
THE CITY CALIFORNIA.
BUT THESE ARE THREE MILLION
CALIFORNIANS WHO.
WILL HAVE THEIR TAXES REYES.
BECAUSE OF THE GOP TAX PLAN AYE
IN DECEMBER OF TWENTY SEVENTEEN
SO THIS ABOUT A POLITICAL
PANDERING.
THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY
BIPARTISAN FASHION TO STAND UP
TOGETHER AND TO SAY THAT WE'RE
GOING TO DO EVERYTHING WITHIN
OUR POWER AS THE DULY ELECTED
SENATORS. OF OUR RESPECTIVE
AREAS IN CALIFORNIA TO ENSURE
THAT OUR CONSTITUENTS TAXES WILL
NOT BE REYES.
BECAUSE OUR TAXES WILL BE RAISED
SO THOSE WHO ACTUALLY VOTE FOR
THIS BILL.
ARE DOING THE RIGHT THING BY
PROTECTING THEIR CONSTITUENTS
AND MAKING SURE THEIR TAXES ARE
NOT REYES. THAT'S JUST THE
BOTTOM LINE.
MAYBE DIFFICULT FOR SOME FOLKS
TO SORT OF. TAKE BUT THE BOTTOM
LINE. BUT I WANNA ANSWER COUPLE
QUESTIONS WITH REGARDS TO THE
LEGALITY ILLEGALITY WITH IRIS
RULES ARE WHAT STATUTORY
MEASURES MAY BE.
IN THE HORIZON.
WE HAVE THIRTY OTHER STATES.
IN THE NATION.
THIRTY OTHER STATES IN THE
NATION.
WHO HAVE ADOPTED A VERY SIMILAR
PLATH NOT PRECISELY?
TWO TWO SEVEN BUT THEY HAVE A
VERY SIMILAR PLAN. IN THE STATE
OF FLORIDA AS WELL AS ARIZONA.
THE ACTUAL LOW.
ARIZONA AEONS TO MAKE A STATE
TERRIBLE CONTRIBUTION TO THE
ARIZONA STATE GENERAL FUND WHICH
IS.
REGULATED OR ITS THAT THE
GOVERNOR OF ARIZONA AND THE
LEGISLATIVE HOUSE OF ARIZONA.
AND AS A RESULT YOU RECEIVE A
TAX CREDIT FROM THE STATE OF
ARIZONA.
TAX CREDIT AS THE FEDERAL
DEDUCTION THAT'S ALLOWABLE BY
THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE.
ALL THEY USE IT FOR POLICY THAT
I WOULD BE SUPPORTIVE OF BUT
THEY USE IT FOR POLICY TO. USE
THAT CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTION FOR
VOUCHERS.
FOR SECULAR AS WELL AS
SECTARIAN.
PRIVATE SCHOOLS NOW.
FOR HIS OR HER OWN. YOU KNOWN IN
EACH RESPECTIVE STATES
A FLORIDA AND ALABAMA DO THAT AS
WELL.
NOW I DO FIND THAT THE
ADMINISTRATION WILL FIND ITSELF
IN SOMEWHAT OF A CONUNDRUM
BECAUSE YOU CAN TAKE A MEAT
CLEAVER.
IF YOU WANT OPPOSE THIS.
BECAUSE YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO
FIGURE OUT HOW DO YOU FINANCE
THIS AND HOW YOU TAKE THAT THE
RED.
AND THREAD THAT NEEDLE. BECAUSE
AGAIN YOU HAVE OTHER RED STATES
WHO HAVE SIMILAR MODELS.
BUT WE'RE TRYING TO DO
CALIFORNIA AGAIN THIS PROTECT
TAXPAYERS OF CALIFORNIA AND BY
THE WAY TWENTY FOURTEEN. FROM
THE CAL GRANT BILL THAT I HAVE.
THAT WE PASS WE HAVE
INDIVIDUALSWHO HAVE UTILIZED
THE TAX CREDIT.
AND DEDUCT IT FROM THE FEDERAL
RETURNS TO GIVE MORE MONEY ABOVE
AND BEYOND WHAT WE OFFER CHIU
CAL GRANTS.
SO THIS IS A MODEL THAT DE
ALREADY WORKS IN CALIFORNIA AND
THIS IS THE MODEL THAT OTHER RED
STATES ARE ACTUALLY UTILIZING.
THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY.
I AGAIN LET ME JUST YOU KNOW.
UNDERSCORE THE FOLLOWING IT'S
OUR OPPORTUNITY ALSO TO TO GIVE.
THE TAXPAYERS OF CALIFORNIAN
OPPORTUNITY TO CONTRIBUTE ABOVE
AND BEYOND PROP NINETY EIGHT TO
A CAVE TO TWELVE. AS WAS
COMMITTEE COLLEGES HIGHER
EDUCATION UC'S AND SEE ISSUES AS
WELL AS OUR STATE PARKS.
NINETY EIGHT WILL NOT BE HELD
HARMLESS WE HAVE A COMPANION
MEASURE. ON THE OTHER SIDE RIGHT
NOW AND THEY ARE COMBINED THEY
ARE ENJOYING TO MEASURE SO BOTH
MEASURES HAVE TO PASS.
IS THAT ONE OR THE OTHER BOTH
MEASURES HAVE TO PASS A
GUARANTEE WE PROTECT PROP NINETY
YET. COLLEAGUES IN A BIPARTISAN
WAY WITH STAND UP TOGETHER LET'S
MAKE SURE THAT TAXES DO NOT RISE
ON CALIFORNIA'S THAT WE HOLD
THAT LINE IN FACT THAT WE LOWER
OUR TAXES. AND GIVE THEM AN
OPPORTUNITY TO THE DOCTORS STATE
AND LOCAL TAXES ON THEIR FEDERAL
RETURNS AS DONE SO BY HUNDREDS
OF MILLIONS OF AMERICANS WITH
THAT. ARE STRICTLY HOUSE FOR MY

THIS BILL AS MANY OF HIS
CONSTITUENTS OWN PROPERTY THERE.

CURRENT LAW ONLY ALLOWS MEMBERS

NATURE OF LOCATION MAKES IT
DIFFICULT FOR MEMBERS TO
QUALIFY.
TO SERVE ON THE CSD BOARD.
FONDLY FLAKY IS POCKETED AWAY IN
THE TAHOE BASIN AND IN WINTER
MONTHS ROAD ACCESS TO PHONE THE
FLAKE IS RESTRICTED. THIS MAKES
IT NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE FOR OWNERS
OF THE CABINS TO ACCESS THEIR
