THESE PROVIDE GOOD PAYING
MANUFACTURING JOBS THAT ARE
BRINGING US INTO THE NEW SPACE

SKILLED WORKFORCE.
THE SUPPLY CHAIN THAT'S BEEN
BUILDING AIRPLANES ROCKET SHIPS

OUR FUTURE WORKFORCE.
HOWEVER STATES LIKE TEXAS AND
FLORIDA ARE AGGRESSIVELY TRYING

TWENTY BY ASSEMBLY MEMBER
OBERNOLTE THANK YOU FOR BEING
HERE.
AND THE FLOOR IS YOURS.
THE NUMBERS AB FOURTEEN WOULD.
ESTABLISH IN STATURE WITH THE
FEES CURRENTLY SET BY THE BUREAU
CANNABIS CONTROLS WERE EARLIER
REGARDING THE REGULATION OF
CANNABIS -- IF YOU'RE TALKING
ABOUT ALL THE FEES UNDER THE
BUREAU OF CONSUMER AFFAIRS OVER
90% OF THEM ARE STABLE CHIN
STATUTE THIS WOULD ESTABLISH
LEGISLATIVE OVERSIGHT OVER
THERE'S FEES WHICH I THINK IS
VERY APPROPRIATE.
LIKE TO THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR
AND YOUR STAFF FOR WORKING WITH
ME ON THE BILL.
THE COMMITTEE ANALYSIS OUTLINES
THREE TECHNICAL AMENDMENTS WERE
HAPPY TO TAKE THOSE AND I'D BE
HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS
THAT YOU HAVE.
VERY GOOD ANY WITNESSES IN
SUPPORT YES COULDN'T PACK
AFTERNOON MISTER CHAIRMAN AND
COMMITTEE MEMBERS AMY JENKINS ON
BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA
CANNABIS INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION --
IN SUPPORT OF THE BILL TODAY --
THE PROPOSITION PROP SIXTY FOUR
GAVE CANNABIS LICENSING AGENCIES
BROAD AUTHORITY TO SET FEES
THROUGH THE REGULATORY PROCESS
WITHOUT.
LEGISLATIVE OVERSIGHT AND THIS
IS REALLY MEANT FOR THE LAST FEW
YEARS ARE EMERGING INDUSTRY HAS
HAD TO REMAIN FLEXIBLE AND ADAPT
QUICKLY AS STATE REGULATORY FEES
WERE DRAFTED AND MODIFIED.
SO WE APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT
THE OFFICE OF ADMINISTRATIVE LAW
HAS FINALLY -- ADOPTED.
REGULATIONS.
WE WOULD LIKE TO SIMPLY CODIFY
THESE FEES -- SO WE CAN BRING
THE CANNABIS INDUSTRY IN LINE
WITH ALL THE OTHER BUSINESSES
OVERSEEN BY THE DEPARTMENT OF
CONSUMER AFFAIRS -- WE ALREADY
FACE A MYRIAD OF CHALLENGES THIS
BILL PROVIDES CANNABIS
BUSINESSES THE SAME PEACE OF
MIND AND STABILITY GRANTED TO
OTHER BUSINESSES THANK YOU FOR
YOUR CONSIDERATION.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH MISTER
JENKINS ANY OTHER WITNESSES IN
FAVOR.
ANY WITNESSES IN OPPOSITION.
I WILL BRINGTHE MATTER BACK TO
THE COMMITTEE FOR QUESTIONS OR
COMMENTS AT THE CENTER LEYVA.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR GOOD
AFTERNOON I JUST HAD A QUESTION
I BELIEVE THERE'S A REPORT
COMING OUT ON JULY FIRST IT'S
GOING TO LET US KNOW IF THE FEES
WERE CHARGING NOW ARE ADEQUATE.
IF THEY'RE INADEQUATE IS THAT
CORRECT.
YES SO WOULD WE NOT WANT TO WAIT
UNTIL THAT OUR REPORT COMES OUT
HERE'S MY CONCERN IF WE SET A
FEE NOW AND THE REPORT COMES OUT
AND SAYS THAT THE FEES ARE
ADEQUATE.
THEN IT COMES BACK TO THE
LEGISLATURE NOBODY LIKES TO VOTE
ON ANYTHING THAT INCREASES FEES
OR TAXES.
SO WOULD WOULD WE JUST BE BETTER
SERVED IF WE JUST WAIT A LITTLE
WHILE BECAUSE THE BILL THE
REPORT COMES OUT A COUPLE WEEKS
FOR THAT HAD OCCURRED TO ME AS
WELL -- THE BUT THAT THIS
INDUSTRY FACES THE BIGGEST
CHALLENGE FROM THE BLACK MARKET
THERE ARE SEVERAL BILLS PENDING
IN THE LEGISLATURE THAT WOULD
ACTUALLY -- INSTITUTE A HOLIDAY
ON THOSE FEES BECAUSE OF THESE
ENORMOUS PROBLEM THAT WE HAVE
WITH ENFORCEMENT IN THE BLACK
MARKET IN TRYING TO GUIDE.
CONSUMER ACTIVITY INTO THE LEGAL
CHANNELS SO -- MY RESPONSE TO
THAT WOULD BE IT I WOULD SAY IT
IS EXTREMELY UNLIKELY THAT THE
LEGISLATURE WOULD -- OR EVEN THE
GIRL CANNABIS CONTROL WOULD ACT
TO RAISE THOSE FEES ANYTIME IN
THE NEAR FUTURE.
AND IN INDEED WE MAY BE OUR BE
REDUCING THEM IF SOME OF THESE
BILLS PASSED SO WE'RE JUST
TRYING TO STABLISH THE CURRENT
AMOUNT AS MAXIMUMS.
AND NOT TO SAY THAT THEY CAN'T
GO UP IN THE FUTURE BUT I THINK
THAT IT'S APPROPRIATE FOR US TO
HAVE LEGISLATIVE OVERSIGHT OVER
THE RECEIPT THESE BECAUSE WE'RE
THINKING OF THE BIG PICTURE I
MEAN THE BUREAU CAMPUS CONTROL
THE THINKING ABOUT THE AMOUNT OF
REVENUE THAT THEY NEED. TO DO
THEIR JOB OF REGULATING THE
INDUSTRY WE'RE LOOKING AT THE
AMOUNT OF A FEE STRUCTURE THAT
WE NEED TO CHANNEL THIS ACTIVITY
INTO LEGAL CHANNELS AND TO TO
MAKE SURE THAT WE WE HAVE A A
FLOURISHING INDUSTRY IN
CALIFORNIA SO I THINK IT'S
EXTREMELY UNLIKELY.
THAT ANY WOULD WOULD WOULD AGREE
THAT THE GREATER FEES ARE A GOOD
IDEA AND IN FACT WE MAY BE
HAVING DISCUSSION ABOUT LOWERING
THOSE FEES.
WELL I THINK THAT'S VERY
OPTIMISTIC -- ONLY BECAUSE THIS
IS SUCH A NEW INDUSTRY AND AND
WE DON'T KNOW THAT THE FEE
STRUCTURE WE SET IS ACTUALLY
WORKING BUT WE WILL KNOW THAT IN
TWO WEEKS ACTUALLY YEAH IN
EXACTLY TWO WEEKS.
WOULD YOU BE OPEN TO YOU KNOW A
TO AMENDING THE BILL OR SAYING
THAT YOU KNOW WHEN WE GET THIS
IN JUST TWO WEEKS SO WE HAVE
PLENTY OF TIME.
THAT YOU WOULD LOOK AT THAT AND
SAY HEY MAYBE WE NEED TO
RESTRUCTURE IT.
I'VE WE WILL CERTAINLY BE
LOOKING AT THAT I THINK THAT WE
ARE DOUBLE REFERRED IS THAT
RIGHT.
I THINK YOU'RE SEEING SO HARD.
OKAY PROBES OKAY FILLED WITH
FISCAL IMPACTS OF THE CONCERN IS
WITH THE LEGISLATIVE CALENDAR
BUT I'M SURE THAT I MEAN
OBVIOUSLY TWO WEEKS WE'RE NOT
GOING TO CLEAR.
THE SENATE CHAMBER AND I'M SURE
THAT'S A DISCUSSION THAT WE'RE
GOING TO BE HAVING WE WANT TO BE
PART OF THE SOLUTION TO THE
PROBLEM WE'RE TRYING NOT TRY TO
MAKE THINGS WORSE HERE.
OKAY ALL RIGHT THANK YOU READ
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS
CENTER ARCHULETA.
YES IN REFERENCE TO FEES.
THE MEDIA UNDERSTAND THIS SHOW
ACROSS THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
THE FEES WILL BE SET.
WHAT ABOUT THE THE COUNTIES AND
CITIES WITHIN THE STATE ARE THEY
GOING TO BE ABLE TO MAKE
ADJUSTMENTS -- AT ALL IN THEIR
FEES ARE THEY'LL BE NO FEES
EXPLAIN TO ME HOW THE CITIES IN
THE COUNTIES WILL FALL INTO PLAY
WITH THIS WELL A ROOM -- IS.
QUITE A COMPLEX PIECE OF
LEGISLATION AND ESTABLISHES KIND
OF A PATCHWORK QUILT OF
STATEWIDE REGULATIONS AND THEN
REGULATIONS THE PERMIT LOCAL
CONTROL SO WE'RE JUST TALKING
ABOUT THE FEES.
THAT -- THE STATE WIDE A BUREAU
CANNABIS CONTROL HAS AUTHORITY
OVER SO THE CITIES AND COUNTIES
CAN STILL IMPLEMENT ADDITIONAL
FEES WE'RE NOT TAKING ANY
AUTHORITY AWAY FROM THE CITIES
AND COUNTIES.
CAN VERY GOOD THAT ANSWERED MY
QUESTION THANK YOU ANYTHING ELSE
FROM HER COLLEAGUES.
OKAY I I DO NOTE THAT THAT
REPORT IS SOUGHT.
ONLY AFFECTS THE BUREAU.
IT'S NOT KNOWN WHETHER SIMILAR
REPORTS ARE GOING TO BE MADE.
FOR DEPARTMENT OF OF FOOD IN AG.
AND THE DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC
HEALTH RIGHT TO THIS IS THIS.
BUT I APPRECIATE YOU BEING
SENSITIVE TO CENTER LIFE IS
POINT HAS THAT AS THE BILL MOVES
FORWARD.
I WITH THAT I'D LIKE TO GIVE YOU
THE OPPORTUNITY CLOSE
GRANDFATHERED THANK YOU VERY
MUCH FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION AND
THE ROBUST DISCUSSION SOME GREAT
QUESTIONS WERE ASKED AND JUST TO
BE CLEAR.
WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO HEAR IS TO
ESTABLISH LORD LEGISLATIVE
OVERSIGHT OVER THOSE FEES AND
THIS IS NOT A UNIQUE SITUATION
MOST OF THE FEES UNDER THE
JURISDICTION OF APARTMENT
CONSUMER AFFAIRS HAVE THIS KIND
OF OVERSIGHT?
WE'RE JUST SAYING THAT THESE FEW
SHOULD BE NO DIFFERENT I
RESPECTFULLY REQUEST RIVAL.

SIX ASSEMBLY BILL TWELVE SIXTY
FOUR BY ASSEMBLY WOMAN
PETRIE-NORRIS.
WELCOME TO THE COMMITTEE GOOD
MORNING WELCOME TO BEGIN AS AS
YOU ARE READY.
GOOD MORNING THAT CHAIR AND
MEMBERS I'M HERE THIS MORNING TO
ASK YOUR SUPPORT FOR AB TWELVE
SIXTY FOUR THIS BILL CLARIFIES
VAGUE TELEHEALTH Là.
IN ORDER TO EXPAND ACCESS TO
BIRTH CONTROL USING SMARTPHONE
TECHNOLOGIES.
AS WE ALL KNOW BIRTH CONTROL
ALLOWS PEOPLE TO CHOOSE IF AND
WHEN TO START A FAMILY SAFE AND
EFFECTIVE FAMILY PLANNING.
HAS AFFORDED WOMEN ECONOMIC
INDEPENDENCE AND FREEDOM THAT
WE'VE USED TO ADVANCE OUR
STANDING IN SOCIETY TODAY.
THIS IS AN IMPORTANT ISSUE I
TECHNOLOGIES CREATE AIDED
ANOTHER DOOR TO THE HEALTH CARE
SYSTEM AND IS AN AVENUE THAT
PROVIDERS ARE USING TO REACH
PATIENTS WHERE THEY ARE AND IN A
WAY THAT THEY WANT TO ACCESS
CARE.
RIGHT NOW IN ORDER FOR WOMEN TO
ORDER BIRTH CONTROL VIA A
SMARTPHONE APPS YOU MUST FIRST
SCHEDULE A VIDEO CONFERENCE.
THIS IS PROVEN TO BE A BARRIER
THAT HAD THE PROFESSIONALS
CONSIDERED TO BE MEDICALLY
UNNECESSARY SO WHAT AB TWELVE
SIXTY FOUR DOES IS.
CLARIFIED THAT HE SYNCHRONOUS
VIDEO CONFERENCE IS NOT REQUIRED
TO PROVIDE BIRTH CONTROL AND
THAT A APPROPRIATE PRIOR EXAM
COULD INCLUDE AN ASYNCHRONOUS
QUESTIONNAIRE.
PLANNED PARENTHOOD HEALTH CARE
CENTERS THIS WILL SIGNIFICANT
SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE ACCESS TO
BIRTH CONTROL.
ON AND WE BELIEVE THAT IT'S AN
APPROPRIATE SHIFT IN THE
GUIDELINES WE MESS UPDATER COULD
SECTIONS REFLECTOR CHANGING
TECHNOLOGIES AND TO ALLOW PEOPLE
TO ORDER CONTRACEPTIVES.
I HOWEVER THEY ARE ABLE TO DO SO.
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR
SUPPORT AND I'M PLEASED TO
INTRODUCE OUR SPONSOR HERE TO
TESTIFY MOLLY ROBSON WITH
PLANNED PARENTHOOD VERY GOOD
THANK YOU [inaudible]
PLEASE.
I MOTHER OF THEM WITH PLANNED
PARENTHOOD I WE REPRESENT SEVEN
AFFILIATES WHO PROVIDE HEALTH
CARE TO OVER SEVEN HUNDRED
THOUSAND PATIENTS IN CALIFORNIA --
I WANT TO THANK THE AUTHOR FOR
HER LEADERSHIP AND COMMITTEE
STAFF FOR THE ANALYSIS AND WORK
ON THE AMENDMENTS.
I WANNA MAKE ONE CLARIFICATION
WHICH IS ON PAGE THREE OF THE
ANALYSIS -- CURRENTLY PP DIRECT
DOES NOT PROVIDE STD TEST KITS
IN CALIFORNIA.
DIRECT EXIST IN MANY STATES --
AND SERVICES VERY SO JUST.
FYI -- BUT WE ARE SPONSORING
THIS BILL THE RIGHT CLARITY IN
THE LAW RELATED TO PRESCRIBING
MEDICATIONS VIA TELEHEALTH SUCH
AS BIRTH CONTROL -- AFTER
WORKING WITH STAKEHOLDERS WE
BROUGHT IN THE BILL TO CLARIFY
THAT.
APPROPRIATE PRIOR EXAMINATION
AND PRESCRIBING VIA TELEHEALTH
GENERALLY.
SO DESPITE CONTINUED INVESTMENTS
AND HEALTH CARE THROUGH THE
STATE BUDGET.
WE KNOW THAT THEY'RE STILL AN
UNMET NEED FOR BIRTH CONTROL IN
CALIFORNIA AND TELL HEALTH CAN
HELP -- WITH THIS BARRIER.
AND AS YOU KNOW THE GOAL OF
TELEHEALTH IS TO PROVIDE THE
SAME STANDARD OF CARE IN A WAY
PATIENTS WANT TO ACCESS CARE AS
THE AUTHOR MENTION.
RECOGNIZING THIS WE CREATED PP
DIRECT THROUGH PLANNED
PARENTHOOD -- TO PROVIDE BIRTH
CONTROL THROUGH AN ASYNCHRONOUS
A STORM FOR TECHNOLOGY.
THE OP LUNCHEON CALIFORNIA IN
TWENTY SIXTEEN AND HOT OVER FIVE
HUNDRED PATIENTS ON AVERAGE A
MONTH.
BUT DO THE AMBIGUITY IN THE LOT
IN TWENTY EIGHTEEN WE WERE IT
BEGAN REQUIRING SYNCHRONOUS
VIDEO CONFERENCE BETWEEN PATIENT
AND CLINICIAN.
THIS IS AN OBLIGATION REQUIRED
IN FIFTEEN OTHER STATES THAT USE
THE PP DIRECT OP.
I MEDICAL EXPERTS AS MENTIONED
HAVE DETERMINED THAT IT'S
UNNECESSARY.
THIS APP IS MEETING PATIENTS
WHERE THEY ARE BUT THE
REQUIREMENT FOR VIDEO CONFERENCE
CAUSE A DISRUPTION CARE AND AN
ESTIMATED 50% OF PATIENTS WERE
NOT FULFILLING THE REQUIREMENT
TO GET THE BIRTH CONTROL.
AB TWELVE SIXTY FOUR PROVIDES
CLARITY THE NEW APPROPRIATE FOR
EXAMINATION IS TO BE DETERMINED
BY THE MEDICAL LICENSE FEE.
AND A SYNCHRONOUS REAL TIME AS
IT IS NOT REQUIRED TO DETERMINE
WHETHER OR NOT TO PROVIDE
HOMEOWNER BIRTH CONTROL TO A
PATIENT -- THIS APPLE OUT PP
DIRECTED ME THAN UNMET NEED AND
PROVIDE ACCESS TO TENS OF
THOUSANDS OF PATIENTS IN
CALIFORNIA.
AND THAT'S BENEFIT FROM
ASYNCHRONOUS TELEHEALTH AS
ORIGINALLY IMAGINED IN THE
CREATION OF THE APPLICATION.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION
OF THIS BILL I ASK FOR YOUR
SUPPORT VERY GOOD THANK YOU VERY
MUCH ANY OTHER WITNESSES IN
SUPPORT.

[inaudible]
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR AND
MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE.
I FIRST WANT TO THANK. TO START
BY THANKING THE CHAIR AND
COMMITTEE STAFF FOR THEIR WORK
ON THIS BILL.
AND I ACCEPT THE COMMITTEE OF
AMENDMENTS AB TWELVE NINETY ONE
CLARIFIES THE TIME FRAME FOR
WHEN CAMPUS BUSINESSES NEED TO
COMPLY WITH LABOR PEACE
AGREEMENT REQUIREMENTS.
A LABOR PEACE AGREEMENT S AN
AGREEMENT BETWEEN A BUSINESS AND
LABOR ORGANIZATIONS THAT
PRESCRIBED ALLEGATION OF EACH
PARTY.
THESE AGREEMENTS TEND TO INCLUDE
MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL PROVISIONS
THAT PROTECT BUSINESSES AND
IMPORTANTLY EMPLOYEES CURRENT
LAW REQUIRES THAT CANNABIS
BUSINESSES WITH TWENTY OR MORE
EMPLOYEES ENTER LABOR PEACE
AGREEMENT.
AS PART OF THE APPLICATION
PROCESS TO OBTAIN A CANVAS
LICENSE BUSINESSES WITH AT LEAST
TWENTY EMPLOYEES ARE REQUIRED TO
STATE THAT THEY WILL ENTER LABOR
PEACE AGREEMENT IF THE BUSINESS
AT ALL IT'S NOT ALREADY ENTERED.
ONE HOWEVER CURRENT REGULATIONS
ARE SILENT.
ONLY BUSINESSES WITH LESS THAN
TWENTY EMPLOYEES NEED TO ENTER A
LABOR PEACE AGREEMENT.
IF THEY BECOME EMPLOYERS OF
TWENTY OR MORE REGULATIONS ONLY
SAY THIS REQUIREMENT NEEDS NEEDS
TO BE WILL BE MET AS SOON AS
REASONABLY PRACTICABLE.
WHICH IS VAGUE AND ALL OPEN TO
INTERPRETATION AB TWELVE NINETY
ONE WILL REQUIRE CANNABIS
BUSINESS LICENSE.
APPLICANTS EMPLOYING LESS THAN
TWENTY EMPLOYEES TO SUBMIT A
STATEMENT THAT WILL ENTER A
LABOR PEACE AGREEMENT WITHIN
SIXTY DAYS OF EMPLOYING THEIR
TWENTIETH EMPLOYEE.
THIS MEASURE WILL PROTECT
ARBITRARY ENFORCEMENT AGAINST
CANVAS BUSINESSES AND WILL
PROVIDE EMPLOYEES WITH CLARITY --
WHEN AN EMPLOYER IS BAILEY TO
COMPLY WITH THIS LAW WITH ME

HIS MEASURES JAZZY GRAY WALL
