PLEASE CONTINUE RIGHT SO WE'LL
GO TO THE DíAS- SENATOR
JACKSON ADEQUATE GO AHEAD
SENATOR JEFF ACTUALLY NOT NOT A
QUESTION A- AN APPRECIATION FOR
BRINGING. AND I THINK IT'S
INTERESTING TO HAVE ONE OF OUR
REPUBLICAN SISTERS. WHO IS THIS
I HAPPEN TO HAVE HAD AN OFF
NEEDED TO TALK TO ASSEMBLY
MEMBER WALDRON. WHO'S A SMALL
BUSINESS PERSON AND WHO MADE IT
A POINT TO HIRE PEOPLE WHO HAVE.
IN RETURN THE CARD ASIAN. THIS
AND THEREFORE THE IS TO COME TO
THIS CONCEPT OF FREE OF. AND IS
QUITE AWARE OF THE CHALLENGES
THAT FOLKS FIT THEY DO GET OUT
OF. AND I THINK THIS IS A- THE
TO MOVE FROM XIN THAT THE BAY
WAY TO KILL PEOPLE IS TO
INCARCERATE THEM. FOR
PUNISHMENT MOST PEOPLE IN ARE
THERE BECAUSE THEY HAVE A
PROBLEM AND IF WE ARE WILLING
TO REST THEIR PROBLEMS WHEN
THEY COME BACK OUT THEY WILL
RESPOND OF IT. IS THE PROBLEM
CORRECT. AN THE I AM REMINDED
OF AN EXPERIENCE COUPLE YEARS
AGO. THE SENATE TOOK A TRIP TO
PORTUGAL AND SPAIN. AND
PORTUGAL SORT OF LIKE KENTUCKY
RECOGNIZED THAT TO SIMPLY
INCARCERATE PEOPLE WAS NOT
SOLVING THEIR PROBLEMS. AND SO
THEY LOOKED AT A LOT OF THEIR
ADDICTION ISSUES AS A HEALTH
ISSUE NOT A CRIMINAL JUSTICE
ISSUE. AND THEY REDUCED THEIR
RATE OF. IT WILL NOT CHEST OF
CONVICTION BUT AND
INCARCERATION BUT OF ACTUAL-
ADDICTION. BECAUSE THE TREATED
THE PROBLEM. AND IT IT WAS
REALLY QUITE AN EYE OPENING
EXPERIENCE THE FACT THAT OUR
FRIENDS IN KENTUCKY ARE WAY
AHEAD OF US ON THIS KENTUCKY
ISN'T KNOWN AS FAR AS I KNOW IS
A- SORT OF A TOUCHY FEELY
GRANOLA TYPE PLAY IT'S PRETTY
HARD CO. IN MANY BUT- WE SHOULD
BE LOOKING AT THIS AND THE
REASON I'M SPEAKING MADAM CHAIR
IN. YOU NEED. TO REPORT OUR
TION OF WHAT TO ACRONYM JUSTICE
IS AND CERTAINLY THERE ARE
PEOPLE WHOSE BEHAVIOR JUSTIFIED
INCARCERATIONS BUT WHILE THEY
WERE DATING THE WORK ON TRYING
TO HELP THEM CHANGE THEIR
BEHAVIOR. ADDICTION IS A- BY
ALLOWING US TO GIVE INCENTIVES
TO PEOPLE. TO TRY TO THAT
BEHAVIOR TO OVERCOME. THEIR
ADDICTION TO HELP THEM DO THAT
SO THE WHEN THEY GET OUT THE
KNOCK IN RECIDIVIST TODAY ARE
ACTUALLY GET THE TOOLS THE
ABILITY TO TURN THEIR LIVES
AROUND IS I THINK AN OVERDUE
CONCEPT THAT WE IN CALIFORNIA'S.
HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE GAME ON
END SO. I WANT TO SUPPORT THIS
BILL I DON'T KNOW WHETHER OR
NOT THERE WILL BE AN
OPPORTUNITY TO JOIN IS A CO
AUTHOR I DON'T TO THEIR FREE
MUCH. BUT BASED UPON WHAT I.
HAVE ONE AT A FOCUSING ON THE
FACT THAT PEOPLE. ARE USUALLY
IN CARS. FOR PRETTY DELIVERY
SINCE AND WE DON'T ADDRESS
THOSE WHY THEY'RE IN CARS. WE
WILL CAN TO HAVE THE HIGHEST
RECIDIVISM. I AM THE CAR. AMONG
THE- I AM. THAT FOR BROUGHT
BILL. HELLO A SISTER IN ACROSS
THE AISLE RECCA THE IMPORTANCE
OF THIS I'M HOPING THIS WILL BE
A BI PARTISAN ISSUE GOING
FORWARD BECAUSE IT IS A
BIPARTISAN ISSUE SO WITH THAT I
WOULD ALSO MOVE THE BILL THANK
YOU MA'AM. LET'S SEE IF THERE'S
ANY OTHER COMMON QUESTIONS. ALL
RIGHT SO- WE HAVE A MOTION
WHICH IS TO PASS TWO PROBES AND
WE CAN PUT IN THE REQUEST TO
THE ASSEMBLY MEMBER WE CAN'T-
INCLUDE IN THE IN. THE CO
AUTHORS BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE
THE SIMPLY MEMBER HERE TO
CONSENT BUT WE CAN CERTAINLY IN
IT IN REQUESTED SENATOR JACKSON
LIKE TO BE ADDED TO SCHOOL OUT
THERE I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO BE
ADDED AS A CO AUTHOR. AND THINK
THE IMPORTANT. BOTH THE
PRESENTER AND TO THE WITNESS
DID IS THAT MEDICALLY ASSISTED
TREATMENT FOR ADDICTIONS
THERE'S MORE AND MORE. RESEARCH
AND DATA SUPPORTING MEDICALLY
SISTER TREATMENT AND WITH THE
NUMBERS OF THE DICK OPIATE
ADDICTED PEOPLE IN OUR COUNTRY
NOW. TO FOR US TO RECOGNIZE THE
SCIENCE BASED EVIDENCE OF THE
EFFICACY OF MEDICALLY ASSISTED
TREATMENT I THINK IT'S VERY
WEISS AND INSTEAD OF LOOKING AT
THE VISUALS WHO HAVE THESE TYPE
OF ADDICTIONS AS SOMEHOW WEEK
SO I THINK THIS IS VERY
IMPORTANT AND THAT IT ALSO A
VALUE. EIGHT HIGH TREE THAT HAS
BEEN PROVEN TO BE EFFECTIVE AND
OF COURSE I WILL BE SUPPORTING
THE BILL WE HAVE THE MOTION ON
IT BRADFORD ON MAKE ANY CLOSING
COMMENTS FOR THE AUTHOR I'LL BE
VERY BRIEF ON I THINK THIS TO
COMMONSENSE MEASURE. BUT A
MEASURE IT SHOULDN'T BE ANY OF
THE BLACK COMBAT. WELCOME HAS
BEEN MAKE PAYMENT FOR OVER
FORTY. OF TREATMENT AND I HATE
TO ALWAYS USE RACE BUT I'M
GONNA MAKE THE PRALLEL NON TO
WHITE FOLKS START DYING FROM
OPIOID ADDICTION THAT ALL OF A
SUDDEN THEY- SEE A NEED TO
PROVIDE TREATMENT STARTED
IMPRISONMENT SO THIS IS COMMON
SENSE MEASURE AND I'M HONORED.
TO PRESENT ON BEHALF OF MISS
WALDRON AND I RESPECT FOR YOUR
AYE VOTE. FOR IT THREE OUT THE
MOTION THANK YOU HAVE A MOTION
THE PAST TWO. UP TO CALL THE
ROLL. AT THIRTEEN OH FIVE

WRITING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
IN CONFORMANCE WITH APPLICABLE
STATE AND FEDERAL LAW. WHICH
ARE REVIEWED AND UPDATED AT
LEAST EVERY TWO YEARS ON A
NUMBER OF TOPICS INCLUDING
PROVISION FOR BEING IN CARE OF
PREGNANT AND- INMATES INCLUDING
PRENATAL AND POST PARTUM
INFORMATION AND HEALTH.
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
ACCESS TO NECESSARY VITAMINS AS
RECOMMENDED BY A PHYSICIAN FROM
A TRAINING PROCEDURE CATION AN
INFILL CARE WE GOING TO THAT
IT'S- INAPPROPRIATE TO SET- USE
TREATMENT SCHEDULE
SPECIFICATIONS FOR CARE IN
STATUTE IS THAT DOING SO LIMITS
NECESSARY FLEXIBILITY. ALSO THE
UNFUNDED MANDATES CONTEMPLATED
BY THIS BILL RELATED TO
SPECIFIC COURSES OF PRENATAL
AND POST PARTUM CARE WITHOUT
REGARD TO LOCAL STANDARDS ARE
RESOURCES WILL BE EXTREMELY
COSTLY ESPECIALLY THE SMALL
COUNTIES NOT EVERY COUNTY WILL
BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THIS LEVEL
OF CARE WITHOUT EXTREMES
BUDGETARY PRESSURE IT ON JUST
RELATED TO IDENTIFYING SPECIFIC
ITEMS ARE COURSES OF CARE IN
FIFTY EIGHT DIVERSE COUNTIES.
SO FOR THOSE REASONS WE MUST
REGRETTABLY AT SPECS WE OPPOSE
AB SEVEN THIRTY TWO. ALL RIGHT
DO WE HAVE ANY OTHER LEAD
WITNESS NOT LISTED SO DO WE

MOMENT. I WANT TO THANK THE
ASSEMBLY MEMBER BONTA FOR
INTRODUCING THIS I CANNOT
BELIEVE THAT IN- I FIRST
INTRODUCED A BILL AROUND
SHACKLING OF PREGNANT WOMEN IN-
JAILS AND PRISONS YEAH BACK IN
I THINK WAS TO THE NINE. AND
YET WE STOPPED THE PRACTICE
AND- YOU KNOW WE WOULD NOT NEED
TO DO THE START THE STATUTES
IF. OUR COUNTY JAILS WE'RE
DOING THE RIGHT THING AND
ADOPTED THEIR OWN APPROPRIATE
REGULATIONS WE KNOW ENOUGH
ABOUT PREGNANCY THAT. THERE'S
MANY MANY POSSIBLE
COMPLICATIONS THAT ARE NOT IN
ANY WAY EVIDENT JUST LOOKING AT
THE PREGNANT INDIVIDUAL THINGS
LIKE HI SURE RIGHT IF THINKS
THAT I. NUMBER CAN COMPLICATE
THAT PREGNANCY AND CREATE VERY
BAD OUTCOMES AND GIVEN. THAT IF
A PERSON IS IN OUR CUSTODY WE
MUST PROVIDE EVERY BIT OF.
APPROPRIATE CARE FOLLOWING ALL
THE MEDICAL GUIDELINES AND I
DON'T THINK I COULD FIND ONE
MEDICAL DOCTOR WHO WOULD TELL
YOU THAT IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO
SHACKLE A PREGNANT WOMAN. HELLO
I'M GLAD OF IT BEFORE AGAIN I
HOPE THAT IT WILL FINALLY BE
NOT ONLY ENACTED BUT SIGNED
INTO LAW AND WE DON'T HAVE TO
DISCUSS THIS SINCE IT'S NOW
GOING ON FOR ME ELEVEN YEARS
SENATOR JACKSON'S. WELL HI
APPRECIATE THE COMMENTS OF THE
CHAIR AND TOO GOOD THING THAT
THE REPRESENTATIVE FROM THE
SHERIFF'S ASSOCIATION ISN'T IN
THIS FORUM. AT THE MOMENT WE'VE
HAD THESE CONVERSATIONS BEFORE
WITH THE SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION
THE LACK OF RESPECT. THE
ABSENCE OF ANY SEMBLANCE OF
DIGNITY. THAT THESE WOMEN
EXPERIENCE IS CHARGED ON
ACCEPTABLE IN TODAY'S WORLD
ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE AS I
WAS LISTENING TO THE TESTIMONY.
THE NOTION THAT WOMEN ARE
SHACKLED DURING PREGNANCY THE
NOTION THAT THEY ARE TREATED
WITH SUCH DISDAIN AND
HUMILIATION. AND THAT WE NOW
ACTUALLY HAVE THE SHERIFFS
ASSOCIATION OBJECTING. TO
LEGISLATION THAT WILL PROHIBIT
SHACKLING THAT WILL PROHIBIT
THE POLICIES THAT ARE
CONTINUING TO BE CONDUCTED. OUR
JAILS IS ABSOLUTELY APPALLING
TO ME. AND FRANKLY DISGRACEFUL.
AND I ASKED MYSELF HOW MANY OF
THESE PEOPLE IN THE SHERIFFS
ASSOCIATION ARE WOMEN WHO HAVE
EVER GIVEN BIRTH. BECAUSE YOU
HAVE ARE. WHAT THAT EXPERIENCES
LIKE AND YOU SHOULD NOT BE IN A
POSITION WHERE YOU CAN
HUMILIATE AND DEGRADE WOMEN
GOING THROUGH THIS EXPERIENCE
AND THEN COME TO THIS PLACE AN
OBJECT TO SOME OF THE BASIC
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF HUMAN
DIGNITY. THIS BILL CALLS FOR.
THIS BILL DOESN'T ASK THAT
THESE PEOPLE BE TREATED AS
ANYTHING OTHER THAN HUMAN
BEINGS. PREGNANT WOMEN GIVING
BIRTH A NEW OPPOSE THIS. YOU
SHOULD BE ASHAMED. AND I AM
EMBARRASSED FOR THIS
ORGANIZATION AND SO SHOULD YOU
BE WITHOUT I WILL MOVE THIS
BILL. ANY TO A CENTER UNTIL THE
TO LIKE TO MAKE A COMMENT I'D
LIKE TO CLOSE VERY AUDREY
MINIMAL OUT HIS ME OF SENATOR
MORE NON MORE LIKE YOU GO AHEAD.
I'M. I GUESS I JUST WANT TO
MAKE SURE THAT WE- PROVIDE THE
WHOLE PICTURE THAT MAYBE THERE
WERE SOME. JAILS AT WORK.
OPERATING AS WELL AS THEY
SHOULD HAVE BEEN AND I DON'T
KNOW. IF THAT IN FIRST AT ALL
JAILS ALL FIFTY COUNTY ARE ARE
YOU KNOW THEY'RE SURE OF SIR.
NOT PROVIDING THE DIGNITY AND
RESPECT THAT IS NECESSARY AT
THIS CRITICAL TIME SIDE. BUT
SHOULD BE CAREFUL THAT. WE
DON'T BLAST THE WHOLE SHERIFF'S
ASSOCIATION WHEN MAYBE. THE
MAJORITY OF THEM ARE- HAVE JUST
ACTION POLICIES IN PLACE SO I.
I JUST WHEN IT WHEN IT SAY THAT
MADAM CHAIR BECAUSE- CENTER
JACKSON I. HAVE BEEN WORKING ON
MENTAL HEALTH AND SOMEWHERE
ALONG THE WAY MAYBE ONE MENTAL
INSTITUTION WAS NOT DOING WHAT
WHICH POST READER. THAN ALL OF
THEM WERE CLOSED AND NOW WE- A
MASSIVE POPULATION ON OUR
STREETS ARE. I JUST WANNA BE
CAREFUL. AND SAY THANK YOU TO
THE SHERIFF'S THAT ARE. DOING A
GOOD JOB IN FEEL THIS IS A
NECESSARY OFFENDED THAT THEY'RE
THEY'RE BEING. IMPLICATED OR
THAT THEY ARE DOING THE JOB-
AND I AND I APPOINTED A WOMAN
SURE OF IN THE- SO- SO I JUST
WANT TO. JUST GIVE IT IN IF I
MAY CLARIFY. I THINK YOU. HAVE
SENATOR MORE LOCKERS FINISH TO
NOT TAKE YOUR MANAGER I JUST
WANT TO RESPOND TO THIS
JACKSON. YEAH MY POINT WAS NOT
AS I SHOULD THE ASSOCIATION.
WHICH HAS COME BEFORE US TODAY
IN OPPOSITION SHOW THE WITNESS
WAS REPRESENTING THE SHERIFFS
ASSOCIATION I AM SURE. THERE
ARE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENTS THAT
ARE CONDUCTING THEMSELVES IN A
MUCH MORE HUMANE MANNER. BUT MY
POINT MY COMMENTS WERE DIRECTED
AT THIS ASSOCIATION THE CAME
BEFORE US TODAY OBJECTING ON
THE GROUNDS THAT WERE SET FORTH
THAT THAT'S THE POINT I WANT TO
BE CLEAR ENOUGH I WASN'T CLEAR
MY APOLOGIES. IT IS THE FACT
THAT THIS ASSOCIATION HAS
REGISTERED FORMAL OPPOSITION
AND TO FIGHT HERE TODAY. IN
OPPOSITION THAT IS THE
INITIATION THAT'S THE ENTITY
THAT I WAS CALLING OUT NOT
INDIVIDUAL SURE UPS AND IT IS
MY HOPE THAT IF THERE ARE
INDIVIDUAL SHERIFFS WHO SHARE
MY EMBARRASSMENT THAT THIS
ORGANIZATION COME OUT IN
OPPOSITION AND ART CHELATED
ITSELF SUCH THE DAY BIG GAP AND
IT IS HOPED THAT THE- FORWARD.
THE SURE SHOWS ASIAN ARM. ITS
ROLE ALL SO GIVING PEOPLE THEIR
DIGNITY SO WITH THAT THANK YOU
FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPLAIN.
BRADFORD YOU HAVE COMMON. I WAS
JUST GONNA THAT WHICH AS SOON
JOHN AND STATED I DON'T THINK
SHE WAS CASTING ASPERSIONS ON
ANY PARTICULAR BUT AS AN
ASSOCIATION AND YOU COME OUT IN
OPPOSITION TO. HUMANE
TREATMENT. I THINK IT'S THE
OBLIGATION OF THAT ASSOCIATION
THEN TO HAVE CONVERSATIONS WITH
THEIR MEMBERS WHO ARE OPPOSED
TO THIS. AND ASKS WHY ARE THE
OPPOSING HUMANE TREATMENT
BECAUSE I CAN ASSURE YOU IF MEN
WERE GIVEN BIRTH THEY WOULD BE
TREATED IN THE SAME FASHION.
SENATOR MITCHELL WOULD YOU LIKE
TO CLOSE ON BEHALF OF ASSEMBLY
MEMBER BONTA I WOULD THANK YOU
VERY MUCH IN RESPONSE TO ONE OF
MY COLLEAGUES QUESTION. IS THIS
A PROBLEM OF ONE BAD JAIL- LET
ME CLEAR FIVE THAT TO- THERE
HAD BEEN SOME ISSUES AND A FEW
COUNTIES WHICH I'M NOT GONNA
NAME HERE BUT- IT'S CLEAR THAT
A STATEWIDE SOLUTIONS NECESSARY
BECAUSE THE QUALITY
REPRODUCTIVE CARE YOU RECEIVE
SHOULDN'T DEPEND UPON WHERE YOU
HAPPEN TO BE ARRESTED IN WHERE
YOU'RE INCARCERATED. SO WE
STATEWIDE SOLUTION- IS
IDENTIFIED AS THE AS THE
PREFERRED A TWENTY SIXTEEN
REPORT BY THE ACLU ON
REPRODUCTIVE HEALTHCARE IN CAT
CALIFORNIA COUNTY JAILS.
DOCUMENTED NUMEROUS ABUSES
THROUGHOUT THE STATE. INCLUDING
REQUIRING WOMEN TO GET
PREGNANCY TESTING- WHEN THEY
DIDN'T WANT THEM. FORCING A
WOMAN REQUESTED AN ABORTION TO
WAIT TWO MONTHS FOR THE
PROCEDURE PUSHING HER IN A AT
HER SECOND TIME TRIMESTER. JAIL
STAFF ENCOURAGING SOME PREGNANT
WOMEN TO GET ABORTIONS WHEN
THEY DID NOT WANT THEM. PUTTING
A WOMAN WHO WAS DESPONDENT WHEN
RETURNING TO JAIL AFTER HAVING
GIVEN BIRTH. AND THE ANSWER FOR
HER BABY INTO THE HOLE SOLITARY
CONFINEMENT FOR THREE DAYS POST
PARTUM. FORCING A WOMAN WHO HAD
JUST GIVEN BIRTH TO WALK
UPSTAIRS TO AN UPPER TIER SALE.
SO THOSE ARE SOME SPECIFIC
CONCRETE EXAMPLES THAT ACTUALLY
HAPPENED IN COUNTY JAILS IN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA- I THINK
THAT SAY- ARE SIMILAR TO THE
WHAT ANGELICA'S PARTS.
TESTIMONY SENATOR SKINNER YOU
KNOW MY EXPERIENCE GOES BACK
WITH THIS I HAD TO DO MY OWN
MATH HERE THIRTY THREE YEARS AS
A STAFFER HERE TO THE SENATE
HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
COMMITTEE WHEN THE WOMEN'S
CAUCUS. VISITED CALIFORNIA
INSTITUTION FOR WOMEN. AND I
WOULD SUGGEST- THE SHERIFFS
ASSOCIATION WHO HAVE CONCERNS
ABOUT COST IT PERHAPS UNFUNDED
MANDATE TAKE A LOOK AT THEIR-
BROTHER SISTER ORGANIZATION THE
STATE PRISON SYSTEM AND LOOK AT
THE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS LOST IN
LAWSUITS. WHERE WOMEN SUED FOR
INAPPROPRIATE- FROM FOR ABUSE
DURING CHILDBIRTH AND ONE. CAN
SELECT THEIR CONCERN IS A
FISCAL ONE I WOULD SUGGEST-
OUNCE OF PREVENTION MIGHT WORK-
PRE VITAMIN A PRENATAL VITAMINS
ARE PENNIES ON THE DOLLAR.
ALLOWING SOMEONE TO HELP LOWER
BLOOD VERSUS THE UPPER BUNK HAS
NO COST ALLOCATIONS. AND SO IF
THERE CAN. IS TAKE A LOOK AT
THE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS PAID
OUT BY THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
TO PREGNANT WOMEN WHO
EXPERIENCED ABUSE IN THE STATE
FACILITY WHICH IS WHY. ON AT
DATE. WE KNOW HAVE THESE
ISSUES. ON THE FACT THAT WE ARE
DEBATING. THE APPROACH TO
SHACKLE SOMEONE TO A BED OR
BELLY CHAIN SOMEONE IN
TRANSPORT TO DELIVER A BABY IN
TWENTY TWENTY- IS BEYOND THE
PALE. YOU KNOW THE SHERIFFS
ASSOCIATION I BELIEVE IS A
DEMOCRATIC BODY THAT SURE
EXCEPT TO VOTE AND MAKE A
DECISION ON THE POSITION THEY
TAKE ON BILLS AND I WOULD
CERTAINLY HOPE THAT ON THE VAST
MAJORITY OF SHERIFF'S ON THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA. YOU KNOW
WHO PERHAPS ARE MALE UNDERSTAND
THEIR LEADERSHIP ROLE IN
PROVIDING CARE AND HEALTH
DELIVERY SERVICES TO ALL
INMATES WITHIN THEIR CUSTODY BE
THEY MALE OR FEMALE WITH THAT-
MADAM CHAIR ASKED FOR AN AYE
VOTE. THANK YOU- SENATOR
MITCHELL THAT IS A MOTION OF DO
YOU PASS TO APPROACH SEND.
MINORITY SPOKE BUT BEFORE WE
TAKE THE VOTE EVEN THOSE
COUNTIES THAT. MAY FEEL THAT
THEY HAVE A GOOD RULE OR GOOD
DRUG GOOD PRACTICES HAVE FALLEN
SHORT IN MY OWN COUNTY. THERE
WAS A WOMAN WHO IS PUT IN THE
HOLE WHO IS PREGNANT WHO THEY
FELT- PERHAPS FOR A
DISCIPLINARY REASONS. AND SHE
ENDED UP GIVING BIRTH ALONE
WHILE SHE WAS IN THAT SOLITARY
CELL. AFTER A REPORTEDLY
CALLING OUT MULTIPLE TIMES AND
HAVING NO ONE RESPOND AND SO
SHE WAS LEFT THERE AND THEY DID
NOT- THEY FOUND HER LATER. IN
THE CELL. WITH THE NEWLY BORN
CHILD SO EVEN IN THOSE COUNTIES
THAT REPORTEDLY HAVE ADOPTED
GOOD PROCEDURES ARE PRACTICES
WE FIND THESE ARE. ACTUALLY
INEXCUSABLE CIRCUMSTANCES SO I
WILL BE SUPPORTING THE BILL
TODAY AND THE MOTION IS TO PASS
TO APPROACH HIM WE WILL DO A
ROLL CALL. AB SEVEN THIRTY TWO
BONTA DEPRESSED APPROPRIATION

SHOWING UP ON THE PHONE AT THIS
TIME- LET'S SEE IF THERE'S ANY
COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS FROM THE
MEMBERS. GO AHEAD SENATOR
JACKSON'S. I APOLOGIZE I'M A
LITTLE UNCLEAR THE- IS I
UNDERSTAND IT THIS FOR THIS
MEASURE REQUIRES AN AGENCY THAT
CONDUCTS AN INVESTIGATION TO
DISCLOSE ITS FINDINGS. NO LATER
THAN OF THE CLOSE TO THE
INVESTIGATION. TO WHOM ARE
THESE FINDING SUPPOSED TO BE
DISCLOSED. SENATOR WIENER I CAN
PROBABLY ANSWER THAT. IF YOU
WOULD IT'S AN AMENDMENT TO THE-
TO THE PROVISIONS THAT WERE IN
SB FOURTEEN TWENTY ONE SO IT IS
JUST A TIMING ISSUE OF WHEN THE
RECORDS COULD BE AVAILABLE SO
IN OTHER WORDS. THE. THE IN IT
THIS BILL ONLY AFFECTS THOSE
RECORDS THAT WERE MADE
AVAILABLE UNDER SB FOURTEEN
TWENTY ONE. SO IT- WHAT IT WHAT
IT PROVIDES FOR IS THAT. ONCE
THE- INVESTIGATION IS CONCLUDED
THAT THEN OF COURSE ANY RECORDS
REQUEST WOULD BE ABLE TO ACCESS
THE RECORDS AND THE PROBLEM
HERE IS. IF YOU HAVE AN OFFICER
WHO RESIGNED AIMS TO IN ORDER
TO TERMINATE THE INVESTIGATION
WHICH IS WHAT HAPPENS IN IRAQ.
RECORDS NEVER GOT RELEASED
BECAUSE IT WAS NEVER CONCLUSION.
TO THE INVESTIGATION AND
SERVICE FOR CHOIR THE AGENCY TO
CONTINUE THE INVESTIGATION EVEN
IF THEY'RE OFFICER RESIGNS
COMPLETE THE INVESTIGATION AND
THEN THOSE BECOME DIFFICULT
PLAN OF THE CRITERIA PUBLIC
RECORDS PUBLIC RECORDS OKAY
VERY GOOD THANK YOU I
APPRECIATE THAT IT WAS NOT
CLEAR BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY. IF THE
PERSON AND GOES TO A NEW
EMPLOYER- IT'S IMPORTANT THAT
THE INFORMATION BE READILY
ACCESSED AND THERE IS. SEVERAL
THAT SENT TO BROWN. IS PURSUING
TO ADDRESS THAT PARTICULAR
ISSUE BUT THIS WILL BE HELPFUL
NOT JUST FOR SUBSEQUENT
AGENCIES- BUT ALSO FOR THE
GENERAL PUBLIC THANK YOU. THE
FIVE. THESE SB FOURTEEN TWENTY
ONE ARE BILL THAT PROVIDED FOR
THE RECORDS DID NOT ON I
WOULDN'T SAY IT DIDN'T
ANTICIPATED JUST DID NOT
ADDRESS THIS ISSUE OF THE
POTENTIAL FOR OFFICERS TO LEAVE
AN AGENCY PRIOR TO- AN
INVESTIGATION OR EVEN BEFORE
ONE BEGAN SO THIS IS TO CORRECT
THAT I ALSO HAVE A BILL IN THIS
SECTION SB SEVEN SEVEN SIX
WHICH WOULD CORRECT IT FURTHER.
INSURER THAT ANY RECORDS ON AN
OFFICER WHO LEFT IN AGENCY
FOLLOWS THEM AND GOES TO THE
NEXT AGENCY SO ENDED ALSO
EXPANDS WHAT CATEGORIES THAT
OUR RECORDS MIGHT BE AVAILABLE
BUT IT DEALS WITH THIS- ON A
PROBLEM THAT HAS BEEN AYE
DEFIED THAT SOMETIMES EIGHTY
AGENCY WILL COME TO AGREEMENT
WITH AN OFFICER TO BE ABLE TO
LEAVE THEIR POSITION. AND THE-
EITHER A DISCIPLINE IS NOT
FULLY COMPLETED OR
INVESTIGATIONS NOT COMPLETED
AND THUS A RECORD IS NOT-
EITHER DOES GO TO THE NEXT

ITEM TEN WHICH IS AB NINETEEN
FIFTY IS ASSEMBLY MEMBER COM
LONGER WHICH SENATOR MITCHELL
IS PRESENTING. GO AHEAD SENATOR
MITCHELL. AND THIS IS AB
NINETEEN FIFTY. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH MADAM CHAIR I'M PRESENTING
TODAY ON BEHALF OF OUR
COLLEAGUE ASSEMBLY MEMBER
KAMLAGER AB NINETEEN FIFTY THIS
BILL IS ONE OF THE CALIFORNIA
LEGISLATIVE BLACK CAUCUS
PRIORITY BILLS IT WOULD SET A
MAXIMUM PROBATION PERIOD OF ONE
YEAR FOR MISDEMEANOR OFFENSES
AND TWO YEARS FOR SOME FELONY
OFFENSES. THE BILL EXEMPTS
CRIMES COMMITTED AGAINST
MONETARY PROPERTY VALUED AT
OVER TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND
DOLLARS IN ANY SPECIFIC CRIMES
OF PROBATION TERM LINKS
IDENTIFIED BY STATUTE WHICH
INCLUDE THE WISE AND STRIKE
FELONY OFFENSES. MANY SEX
CRIMES ARE IN ELIGIBLE FOR
PROBATION BY STATUTE UNDER
CURRENT PENAL CALLED. THESE ARE
ALSO EXAM. UNDER THIS BILL AB
NINETEEN FIFTY CREATES
REASONABLE AN EVIDENCE BASE
LIMITS ON PROBATION TERMS WHILE
LOWERING COSTS TO TAXPAYERS
ALLOWING FOR THE POSSIBLE
INVESTMENT OF SAVINGS AND A FOR
MEASURES PROVEN TO REDUCE
RECIDIVISM AND INCREASED PUBLIC
SAFETY FOR ALL CALIFORNIANS. AB
NINETEEN FIFTY OFFERS A SLIDING
SCALE APPROACH SUPPORTING
SUCCESS OVER PUNISHMENT. IT
RETAINSJUDICIAL DISCRETION AND
RECOGNIZES THAT PROBATION CAN
STILL BE REVOKED FOR
SUBSTANTIVE VIOLATIONS THE
STATUS QUO HAVE TO CHANGE
PROBATION IS RACIAL CULTURAL
REGIONAL CLASS BASED AN
ARBITRARY CRIPPLING SUB
CULTURES AND ECONOMIES ACROSS
THE STATE. HAITIAN. IS A
GENERATIONAL CURSE IT THE BILL
OF SPELL A CHILD HAS TO WATCH
HIS OR HER MOTHER IN DOING THE
FRUSTRATION OF FIGURED OUT
WHERE TO LIVE AND WHERE TO FIND
EMPLOYMENT ALL WITH ADDITIONAL
LIMITATIONS THAT MAKE THESE
TASKS EVEN MORE DIFFICULT THAN
THEY ALREADY ARE. AND YOUR
PROBATION IS ALSO THE MOST
WIDELY USED FORM OF
CORRECTIONAL CONTROL IN THE
STATE. CALIFORNIA'S A
SUPERVISED PROBATION POPULATION
IS ABOUT THREE HUNDRED AND
FIFTY SIX THOUSAND IT'S ONE OF
THE LARGEST IN THE NATION MORE
THAN TWICE THE SIZE OF THE
STATE'S PRISON POPULATION.
ALMOST FOUR TIMES LARGER THAN
THE JAIL POPULATION AND SIX
TIMES LARGER THAN ITS PAROLE
POPULATION. A CLOG THE COURTS
MORE THAN ANY OTHER FORM OF
SUPERVISION. A PROBATION TERM
MAY REQUIRE THAT YOU
CONTINUOUSLY SEEK TO MAINTAIN
GAINFUL EMPLOYMENT YOUR ABILITY
TO TRAVEL ACROSS COUNTY LINES
MAY BE RESTRICTED OR YOU MAY BE
SUBMITTED TO A SEARCH OF YOUR
PERSONAL HOME WITHOUT WARNING.
YOU MAY BE IN VIOLATION OF YOUR
TERMS IF YOU'RE LATE OR YOU
MISS AN APPOINTMENT IN IRAQ
WITH A FRIEND OR FAMILY MEMBER
RIGHT IN THE FRONT SEAT OF A
CAR OR GET PREGNANT. BEING ON
PROBATION CAN FEEL LIKE LIVING
IN QUICKSAND. PROBATION
DEPARTMENTS MICRO MANAGE PEOPLE
AND APPLY HAPHAZARD RULES
DESIGNED TO IT EVIDENTLY CATCH
PEOPLE COMMITTING CRIMES.
CRIMES THAT PEOPLE NOT ON
PROBATION WOULDN'T THINK TWICE
ABOUT. 20% OF PRISON ADMISSIONS
IN CALIFORNIA ARE THE RESULT OF
SUPERVISED PROBATION VIOLATIONS
THE STATE SPENDS TWO BILLION
DOLLARS ANNUALLY TO INCARCERATE
PEOPLE FOR SUPERVISION
VIOLATIONS. RESEARCH SHOWS THAT
PROBATION SERVICES SUCH AS
MENTAL HEALTH CARE AND
ADDICTION TREATMENT ARE MOST
AFFECTED DURING THE FIRST
EIGHTEEN MONTHS OF SUPERVISION
PROVIDE AN INCREASE THE
PROVISION AND SERVICES EARLIER
REDUCES AN INDIVIDUAL'S
LIKELIHOOD TO RESET OF EIGHT.
THE LONGER PROBATION TERM THE
MORE EXPENSIVE IT IS FOR
TAXPAYERS. AND LESS EFFECTIVE.
AND THAT THOSE WHO COMMITTED NO
CRIME DO SO WITHIN THE FIRST
TWO YEARS WHERE THEY CAN BE
CHARGED. THIS BILL PROVIDES THE
IMPETUS FOR COUNTIES TO
REDESIGN PROBATION PROGRAMS
BASED ON PRESUMING SUCCESSFUL
OUTCOMES RATHER THAN COUNTING
ON FAILURES. COUNTY LIKE CONTRA
COSTA AND STATES LIKE LOUISIANA
AND MICHIGAN ARE ALREADY
RETHINKING PROBATION. JUDGES
HAVE CHOSEN TO LOWER PROBATION
TERMS TO TWO YEARS PROBATION
DEPARTMENTS HAVE FRONT LOADED
TREATMENT AND SERVICES AND I'VE
BEEN MORE ROBUST AND
ACCOUNTABILITY TO TREATMENT
RATHER THAN THE GOTCHA
APPROACHES THAT VIOLATIONS-
EVOKE. AND THEY'RE NOT DOING
THIS BECAUSE THEY ARE STATE
CERTAINLY THAT ARE CONSDERED
SOFT ON CRIME THEY ARE
REFORMING PROBATION BECAUSE THE
COSTS AND FAILURE RATES ARE TOO
HIGH. THEY ARE REFORMING
PROBATION BECAUSE THEY DECIDED
TO STOP BLAMING PEOPLE ON
PROBATION AND START LOOKING AT
THE SYSTEM ITSELF. YOU CAN
ACHIEVE A LOT IN ONE OR TWO
YEARS WITH ROBUST PROGRAMMING
IN REAL MASHABLE'S ONE YEAR TWO
YEARS CAN BE AN EFFECTIVE TERM.
AB NINETEEN FIFTY SAYS THE
PROBATION OFFICERS RATHER THAN
KIOSKS SHOULD BE GUIDING
PROBATIONERS THROUGH TREATMENT.
RISK IN NEED ASSESSMENT TOOL
SHOULD BE REGULARLY USED IN
ADJUSTED FEWER PEOPLE ON
PROBATION MEANS A LIGHTER BUT
POTENTIALLY MORE INTENSIVE
CASELOADS FOR OFFICES CAN FOCUS
QUALITY TIME TO RESOURCES. ON
THEIR CLIENTS. ASSEMBLY MEMBER
CHALLENGES US TO ENVISION A NEW
NORMAL WHERE JUSTICE IS
RESTORATIVE AND REHABILITATIVE
ROOTED IN RESEARCH FACTS AND
FIGURES. AND A CONSCIOUSNESS
THAT THE WAY WE'VE BEEN DOING
THINGS IS REALLY IN SUFFICIENT.
A NEW NORMAL WERE SUPERVISION
IS NOT ABOUT HOW LONG SOMEONE'S
TERMINUS BUT RATHER THE QUALITY
OF THEIR EXPERIENCE AND HOW
MEANINGFUL IT IS- WE HAVE
SEVERAL WITNESSES IN SUPPORT.
REPRESENTS FROM THE SAN
FRANCISCO PUBLIC DEFENDER'S
OFFICE ON AS WELL AS THE CHIEF
PROBATION OFFICER OF ALAMEDA
COUNTY MADAM CHAIRWOMAN AND I
ASKED FOR AN AYE VOTE. THANK
YOU A CENTER MICH FOR
PRESENTING WE WILL GO TO THE
PHONE LINE NOW FOR OUR FIRST
LEAD WITNESS A WHICH I BELIEVE
IS WINDY STILL CHIEF PROBATION

THANK YOU GOOD MORNING ARE
HONORABLE CHAIR AND COMMITTEE

PROBATION OFFICER PREVIOUSLY
FOR EXAMPLE DOES GO AND NOW
ALAMEDA COUNTY. CERTAINLY
DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR OVER
EIGHTY FOUR HUNDRED ADULT
PROBATIONERS AB NINETEEN FIFTY
IS AN IMPORTANT BEGINNING TO
REFORM ACT REFORMING COMMUNITY
CORRECTIONS PROBATION
SUPERVISION LENGTH WHICH
ROUTINE BY STATUTE OR IMPOSED
IN A STANDARD THREE YEAR OR
OVER SUPERVISION TERMS
REGARDLESS OF THE TYPE OF
CRIME. RESEARCH PROVES THAT THE
DURATION OF PROBATION
SUPERVISION TERM IS NOT THE
DETERMINING FACTOR IN THE
SUCCESS OR FAILURE OF THE
PROBATIONER THE QUALITY AND
TYPE OF SUPERVISION OUR SYSTEM
OF SUPERVISION BASED UPON THE
DIRECT LINKAGE TO PROGRAMS
SERVICES AND TREATMENT. THE
CLIENT OFFICER RELATIONSHIP AND
THE DOSAGE OF PROGRAMMING ARE
THE FACTORS THAT INCREASE OR
DIMINISH THE INDIVIDUAL SUCCESS
COMES TO PROVISION. ALSO
RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THERE YEARS
EXPERIENCE WHILE AN INDIVIDUAL
IS ON PROBATION SUPERVISION CAN
INCREASE A PROBATIONER CHRIS
CAN TELL YOUR AB NINETEEN FIFTY
IS AN IMPORTANT STEP IN
RESHAPING COMMUNITY CORRECTIONS
RECOGNIZING THE DIFFERENCES
BETWEEN THE SUPERVISION OF
MISDEMEANOR RECKLESS FELONY
CRIME. THERE ARE SOME
MISDEMEANOR CRIMES WHICH DO
NEED INCREASED SUPERVISION
AREAS AS AN EXAMPLE THOSE
RELATED TO THE DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE HER ELDER OR CHILD
ABUSE WELL THE MAJORITY OF
MISDEMEANOR CRIMES DO NOT. MANY
FELONY CRIMES ALSO DO NOT NEED
A STANDARD THREE YEAR OVER
SUPERVISION TERM HOWEVER SOME
CRIMES DO CALL FOR LONGER THE
PROVISION TERM TEXAS.
ENVIRONMENT FELONY CRIMES
ASSOCIATED WITH PENAL CODE SIX
SEVEN POINT FIVE NEED LONGER
THREE YEARS. TERMS AB FIFTY

YES GOOD MORNING MADAM CHAIR
ARE YOU ABLE TO HEAR ME OKAY
YES YES PROCEED. AND OUT SICK
YES GOOD MORNING MY NAME IS
BRIAN RICHARD TO PROBATION
OFFICER PEARL DORADO COUNTY AND
PRESIDENT OF THE TWO
CORRECTIONAL OFFICERS
ASSOCIATION CALIFORNIA- IS HERE
TO DISCUSS THIS MORNING IN OUR
OPPOSE UNLESS AMENDED POSITION-
WE ACTUALLY HAVE BEEN ABLE TO
SHARE OUR POSITION WITH THE OFF
WE APPRECIATE THAT SHE'S
ENGAGED SYSTEM DIALOGUE- AS TO
THE NATURE OF OUR OPPOSITION-
WHAT THIS BILL CLEARLY
RECOGNIZES IS A SHORT PROBATION
TERMS ARE SMART STEP TOWARD
REFORM AND SHE- REACHED WITH
THAT- BUT WE- HAVE. SUPPORTED
THE GOVERNOR IN THE STATE
BUDGET HE PROPOSED SOMETHING
VERY SIMILAR AND WHAT HE NEED
TO POINT OUT AND OUT TO THE
AUTHOR IS THAT. PERHAPS
LEGISLATION ANGELINA. HARD ACT
ALLOWS US TO CONTINUE FROM
VOTING SERVICE IN AREAS WHERE
WE HAVE LARGELY SO WITH KOBE
OPENED LAST IT'S IMPORTANT TO
THAT IS THE ALL TO INCARCERATE.
ARE WORK ARGUE THIS REALLY
PROVIDE THE PATHWAYS BOTH THE A
BILL PIECE IT'S EXPECT BY THE
CAN AND VICTIMS AT WELL AS THE
P. THAT BE GREEN EXPECTED BY
CLIENTS WHEN THEY COME INTO OUR
WORK ENVIRONMENT THAT THAT'S
OUR MISSION THAT'S OUR FOCAL
POINT IS THAT PROVIDING
SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY COMES
THROUGH US HELPING TO HEAL-
PEOPLE THAT COME TO US AS A
RESULT OF THAT THE CRIMINAL
JUSTICE SYSTEM- BUT WE HAVE TO
ADDRESS THE ISSUE ALL MODES
THAT SIDE OF THE CREEK BECOMING
JUST ASSIST. COLOR AND
LOGICALLY THERE WOULD BE. UPS I
SHOULD SAY LIKE A SUPER WILL
DESTROY IN THAT POPPED AS WELL
SHORT TERM THEREFORE LIKELY
IMPROVE THOSE CONDITIONS- BUT
UNDERSTAND PROBATION DOESN'T
CHOOSE WHO WE WORK WITH THEIR
DELIVERED TO US BY THE CRIMINAL
JUSTICE SYSTEM AND WE DON'T
CHOOSE HOW LONG THEY STAY ON
PROBATION THAT WAS DELIVERED TO
US BY THE JUSTICE SYSTEM SO
WHERE IS NEEDED GREED THE
PROBATION BLANKS IN MANY.
INSTANCES BUT IN SHOULD BE
SHORTER WE HAVE TO FOCUS ON THE
FACT THAT WITHOUT THE RESOURCES
NECESSARY TO FRONT LOAD THE
SYSTEM WITH SERVICES THAT YOU
MAY IN FACT PRODUCE AN
UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCE OF
CAUSING PEOPLE TO GO DEEPER
INTO THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE
SYSTEM BY NOT PROVIDING THE
REHABILITATIVE OPPORTUNITIES
THAT THEY NEED. TO SHIFT COURSE
THEY DON'T RECEIVE WHAT THEY
ARE EIGHTEEN ON A LIMITED TIME
FOR THE D. H. NEED TO WRAP UP.
YES PROBATION DOES SPONSORED

SENIOR AND WE CAN NOW. TURN TO
MY COLLEAGUES IF ANYONE HAS ANY
COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS. A CENTER
WIENER GO AHEAD I THANK YOU ON
I FULLY SUPPORT THIS BILL I
KNOW WE FOCUS A LOT ON.
REDUCING OUR PRISON POPULATION
ARE FOR SO MANY REASONS- WE
HAVE TO CONTINUE TO DO THAT
CALIFORNIA. WITH HIS REPORTED
ONE BACK UNDER A HUNDRED
THOUSAND PEOPLE IN OUR STATE
PRISON SYSTEM FOR THE FIRST
TIME IN THIRTY YEARS. FIVE
PROGRESS BUT LET'S REMEMBER
THAT IN NINETEEN EIGHTY WE HAD
TWENTY FOUR THOUSAND PEOPLE.
DIE IN PRISON AND WE RE NOT
ANY SAFER TODAY THAN WE WERE IN
NINETEEN EIGHTY. FIVE THREE TO
CONTINUE TO DRAMATICALLY REDUCE
PRISON POPULATIONS AND CLOSE
DOWN PRISONS AND- STOP SPENDING
SO MUCH ON PRISONS BUT THE
OTHER PIECE OF IT IS- PROBATION.
AND WE HAVE- CENTER MENTAL
INDICATED BEGINNING AN ENORMOUS
NUMBER OF PEOPLE. ON PROBATION
AND ALL PROVISION IS NOT. AS
DAMAGING BUT IS INCARCERATION.
IT STILL IS INCREDIBLY
EXPENSIVE AND IT'S STILL
DRAMATICALLY IMPACTS PEOPLE'S
LIVES. WHEN YOU DREAM MORE
EFFECTIVE ABOUT THIS WE DON'T
NEED TO HAVE PEOPLE INFORMATION
AS LONG AS THEY ARE AND THIS IS
A GOOD DEAL I SUPPORT CENTER
JACKSON. IS AT I AGREE THAT WE
NEED TO REDUCE THE LENGTH OF
TIME I DON'T NECESSARILY AGREE
THE PROBATION IS A BAD THING- I
THINK WHEN IT'S DONE RIGHT TO
AND DONE WELL IT IS VERY VERY
HELPFUL TO PEOPLE. WHO ARE
TRYING TO TRANSIT TRANSITION
BACK INTO NORMAL- LAW ABIDING.
LIFE STYLES AND EXPERIENCE-
I'VE BEEN A CHATTING WITH THE
WITH THE CHI PROBATION OFFICERS
AND BOTH COUNTIES AND IN
PARTICULAR SANTA BARBARA COUNTY
THE- THE FACT THERE IT IS- THAT
THE- SERIOUSLY THAT ANY SERIOUS
PROBATION VIOLATIONS. ARE
LIKELY TO OCCUR- WITHIN THE
FIRST SIX MONTHS. ALL OF A
PERSON'S- A PROBATIONARY PERIOD
AND THERE AFTER THE PROBATIONER
ASSEMBLY HAS WHAT ARE FRANKLY
UNNECESSARY IN STRESSFUL
PRESSURES TO COMPLY WITH THESE
LITTLE REQUIREMENTS THAT THE
THINGS THAT SEND PEOPLE BACK TO
PRISON WILL HAPPEN FAIRLY
QUICKLY AFTER THEY ARE RELEASED
IT FOR THEIR GONNA HAPPEN AT
ALL AND IN FACT WHAT HAPPENS
SHE IS THAT. THE LENGTH OF
TERMS ARE SO LONG PROBATION
OFFICERS ARE REQUIRED TO
MAINTAIN A HUGE NUMBERS TO WHAT
THEY CALL BANKS FILES. THAT
THEY DON'T WORK THEY DON'T HAVE
THE RESOURCES THEIR IT IT'S NOT
EFFECTIVE USE OF THEIR TIME.
THERE'S NO ACTIVE SUPERVISION
AND THEN OF COURSE YOU GET A
TRAFFIC TICKET THREE FOUR YEARS
LATER BLOOM. BACK TO
INCARCERATION YOU GO WHICH
WHICH MAKES NO SENSE FRANKLY-
BUT I WAS WONDERING. OUR END
BECAUSE THE AUTHORS IN HERE I
JUST LIKE TO SUGGEST. THAT AT
LEAST FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF
THE FOLKS THAT I HAVE BEEN
WORKING WITH- THEY'D LIKE TO
CONSIDER AND HAVE US CONSIDER
THE IMPLICATIONS. OF SB SIX
SEVENTY EIGHT FUNDING TO MAKE
SURE THAT THAT FUNDING IS
STABILIZE FOR OF THE CHEST
THEIR CASELOAD CHANGES IF THIS
MEASURE PASSES. AND TO MAKE
SURE THEY CAN PROVIDE THAT
TREATMENT AND SUPERVISION
REQUIRED TO BE DELIVERED
QUICKLY ENOUGH DURING THAT
JORDAN SHOULD. PATIENT PERIOD
IN OTHER WORDS THE GOAL HERE IS
SUCCESS. AND IN ORDER TO HAVE
SO THIS TREATMENT PASSED TO
OCCUR FAIRLY QUICKLY UPON
RELEASE AND SO THEY NEED TO
MAKE SURE THAT THOSE SERVICES
ARE AVAILABLE. AND IT'S MY
WHOLE BY CERTAINLY SUPPORT THIS
MEASURE BUT IT IS SO IMPORTANT
THAT THIS BE SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE
IF IT ISN'T WILL KINDA KNEE
JERK BACK TO THE OLD SYSTEM.
SYSTEM WE BELIEVE. IN HAS BEEN
DEMONSTRATED AROUND THE WORLD
IN IN IN OTHER STATES IN OUR
COUNTRY THOSE WORK. IT DOES
WORK BUT WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE
WE IMPLEMENTED APPROPRIATELY
AND EFFECTIVELY SO THAT IT DOES
WORK SO THAT WE DON'TFIND
OURSELVES. FEELING THAT WE HAVE
TO GO BACK TO SOMETHING THAT-
SIMPLY PUTS PEOPLE AWAY AND
WHERE HOUSE SYSTEM AND- GETS
THEM OUT OF OUR IMMEDIATE
VISION. ONLY TO SEE THAT THEY
WILL COME BACK OR THAT THE NEXT
GENERATION WILL COME- THIS
EIGHT. WHEN APPROACH. TO MAKE
SURE THAT THE RESORT TO THERE
SO CAN BE PROPERLY IMPLEMENTED
SO. BY I WILL ASK THE- AT SOME
POINT WE HAVE THAT DISCUSSION
TO MAKE SURE THE RESOURCES ARE
IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE SO WITH
THIS PROGRAM CAN WORK IN WITH
THAT- I WOULD. HAPPILY AND MOVE
THE BILL. THE CENTER MITCHELL
YOU YOU CAN RESPOND IF YOU
CHOOSE TO BUT YOU KNOW HOW DO
AND I'LL DO INCLUDE YOUR
CLOTHES OKAY I'LL BE PREPARED
TO IN CLOSING OKAY GREAT
SENATOR. WIENER THAT YOU KNOW I
JUST WANTED TO CLARIFY NOT.
SUGGESTING THAT PROVISION IS
BAD REGION CAN BE DONE AN
EXCELLENT WAY AND SENT US IN
THE STILL USED TO RUN OUR ADULT
PROBATION DEPARTMENT SAN
FRANCISCO. AND IT'S A GREAT
MODEL FOR GIVING PEOPLE ACCESS
A RESOURCE AND SERVICES BASED
MODEL SO- BUT IT CAN BE TOO
LONG. ANY OTHER- YES SENATOR-
MORE LUCK. THANK YOU MADAM
CHAIR I SEE A HOUSE DIVIDED IT
PROBATION OFFICERS ON BOTH
SIDES OF THIS ARGUMENT SO I.
BUT ME AND MY- COMMENTARIES I
DON'T SEE ANY. POSITIONS TAKEN
BY THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM. I HAVE
HAD IT HERE HAS YOUR OFFICE
BEEN CONTACTED OLD. OR DESERVE
THE- PRESENTER OF THE BILL HAVE
ANY THE ENDING OF WHAT MAY BE
THE CALIFORNIA JUDGES ARE
RECOMMENDING ON THIS PARTICULAR
THING LIKE SIGNIFICATIVA SHARE
YEAH I DIDN'T SEE ANY
REFERENCES IN THE ANALYSIS ANY
AND I CERTAINLY AM NOT IN
RECEIPT OF ANY- OFFICIAL
POSITION THANK YOU. BUT IS THE
GENERAL QUESTION WE COMMONLY DO
HERE FROM THE JUDGES ARE JUDGES
COUNSELING BILLS AND WE DID NOT
ON THE TWENTY. PERHAPS SENATOR
MITCHELL BEFORE I GIVE YOU THE
FLOOR TO CLOSE I WOULD SAY THAT
EVEN WITH GREAT PROGRAMMING.
LONG BLANKS APPROPRIATION TO
NOT SERVE A PERSON SUCCESSFUL
REHABILITATION BECAUSE OF THE
AMOUNT OF LIMITATIONS THAT ARE
PUT ON YOU WHEN YOU WERE UNDER
PROBATION AND SO TO SUCCEED IN
BACK FULLY IN RE ENTRY YOU NEED
TO BE ABLE TO GET EMPLOYMENT TO
GET EDUCATION TO GET. OUT YOU
KNOW ALL KINDS OF THINGS THAT
WHILE YOU'RE UNDER INFORMATION
IS CONSIDERED SUPERVISION THAT
WHILE YOU'RE UNDERSERVED
SUPERVISION YOU CAN BE
PROHIBITED FROM SO JUST BY ITS
VERY NATURE EVEN UNDER THE BEST
TYPE OF PROGRAM CAN GRAY IN A
PERSON'S ABILITY TO IN FACT
SUCCEED SO I THINK A SHORTENING
IT BEFORE INTENTION IS TO HAVE
PEOPLE. BUT I'D BE FULLY
EMPLOYED IN FULLY SUCCEED IS
VERY VICE BUT- SENATOR MITCHELL
YOU GO AHEAD. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH I APPRECIATE THE- HEARTY
DIALOGUE AND LET ME START BY
SAYING THAT THE AUTHOR WOULD
ABSOLUTELY AGREE. PROBATION
DONE WELL IS AN APT ENTERED
COMPONENT EVERY ENTRY- SHE
WOULD AGREE- SENATOR JACK FROM
THAT IT'S AN ABSOLUTE ASSET.
AND I AND I'M SURE THEY SHOULD
BE WILLING TO TALK ABOUT THE
FUNDING ISSUE AT A LATER DATE
BUT LET'S BE CLEAR FOR EXAMPLE-
YOU KNOW IN LA COUNTY THE SB
SIX SEVENTY EIGHT DOLLARS
HAVEN'T ALL BEEN SPENT AND SO
PROBABLY IS AN IMPORTANT
OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK AT THAT FOR
THE MECHANISM TO MAKE SURE THAT
ALL COUNTIES ARE SPENDING THOSE
DOLLARS ON THE FRONT IN AN
EFFECTIVE WAY. ABSOLUTELY NOT
HER DESIRE TO REDUCE FUNDING-
SHE WOULD ABSOLUTELY AGREE THAT
WITH THE CHIEF PROBATION
OFFICER WHO SPOKE OPPOSITION
THAT IT IS AN ALTERNATIVE TO
INCARCERATION BUT THAT IS THEIR
MISSION BUT IF THAT'S THEIR
MISSION WHY ARE WE ALLOWING
MINOR TECHNICAL VIOLATE
VIOLATIONS TO THE ONLY PEOPLE
BACK TO INCARCERATION I THINK
THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS MEASURE
IS TO BE TRUE TO THE TRUE
MISSION AND INTENT AND DESIGN
OF WHAT PROBATION IS ALL ABOUT.
IN RESPONSE TO THE OPPOSITION
FROM THE I'M DIFFICULT
TRANSOCEAN THAT'S TRUE AND
JUDGE CAN ORDER A TWO YEAR OR
LESS PROBATION PERIOD THE POINT
OF THIS BILL IS TO REDESIGN
PROBATION SO THOSE TWO YEARS
ARE SPENT. IN A MEANINGFUL AND
PROFOUND WAY A JUDGE COULD
ORDER TWO YEARS PROBATION NOW
BUT THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS
BILL IS TO FRONT LOAD ALL OF
THOSE RESOURCES AND SERVICES.
SAW THOSE TWO YEARS. CAN BE THE
MOST IMPACTFUL THEY ALSO ARGUE
THAT A- A PERSON CAN. IF THEY
FINISH WITH ALL OF THEIR
PROGRAMMING THEY CAN GO BACK TO
THE COURTS TO ASK FOR
TERMINATION. I WOULD QUESTION
THE FREQUENCY WITH WHICH THAT
HAPPENS KNOWING THAT HOW BACKED
UP OUR COURT DOCKETS ARE AND I
WONDER IF PROBATIONERS EVEN
NOW. THAT THEY HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO GO BACK AND TRY
TO SHORTEN YOUR TERM AGAIN IT
MISSES THE POINT THE WHOLE

GRATITUDE FROM THE COMMITTEE
FOR ALL THE HELP THEY HAVE-
PROVIDED IN GETTING THIS
MEASURE TO WORD IS TODAY I WILL
BE ACCEPTING. THE RECOMMENDED-
AMENDMENTS FOR FROM THE
ANALYSIS. AB TWENTY ONE FORTY
SEVEN THE STREET FOR MEASURE
THAT ALLOWS FORMALLY
INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS THAT
HAVE SUCCESSFULLY PARTICIPATED
AT ONE OF THE CD OURS
CONSERVATION FAR CAMPS TO APPLY
FOR EXPUNGEMENT. THESE
INDIVIDUALS ARE VETTED BY THIS
DR STRICT CRITERION DURING OUR
FIRE SEASON. PROTECT OUR
COMMUNITIES THEY ARE THEY ALL
EARNED THEIR RIGHT TO WORK BY
EXHIBITING NON VIOLENT BEHAVIOR
AND CONFORMING TO ALL RULES IN
ADDITION ONLY THOSE WITH
MINIMUM CUSTODY. STATUS ARE
ELIGIBLE TO VOLUNTEER SOME
CONVICTION OFFENSES SUCH AS
SEXUAL OFFENSES FENCES. ARSON
AND ANY HISTORY OF ESCAPE WHAT
FORCE OR VIOLENCE AUTOMATICALLY
MAKE AN INDIVIDUAL INELIGIBLE
FOR CONSERVATION CAMPUS SIMONS
EVEN IF THE INDIVIDUAL'S
MINIMAL CUTS THE STATUS. THE
VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTERS OR ON
THE PATH THE REHABILITATION BUT
THEY CANNOT. REACH TRUE
REHABILITATION WITHOUT THE
OPPORTUNITY TO SEE MEANINGFUL
EMPLOYMENT ONE THREE LIST. IF
WE REALLY WANT TO BRING ABOUT
CHANGE AND WAR ARE RECIDIVISM
RATES WE HAVE TO MAKE CHANGES
TO THE SYSTEMATIC POLICY
SUPPRESSING OUR COMMUNITIES. AB
TWENTY ONE FORTY SEVEN DOES
JUST THAT IT WOULD ADD MUCH
NEEDED BALANCE TO OUR CRIMINAL
JUSTICE SYSTEM EL ALL THOSE
INDIVIDUALS THAT WE ARE
COMFORTABLE. I'M NOT FOR THE
CALL ON TO HELP FIGHT FIRES TO
HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO SEEK AN
EXPUNGEMENT. IT IS A GRAVE
INJUSTICE TO OUR LEGAL SYSTEM
THAT WE- DEEM INCARCERATED
INDIVIDUALS FIT TO FIGHT FIRES
FOR LITTLE OR NO PAY WHILE THEY
AREN'T THE ONLINE ON OUR
JUSTICE SYSTEM BUT WHEN THEY'RE
RELEASED THEY MUST FACED
INCREDIBLE CHALLENGES BEFORE
THEY CAN EVEN EARN ALMOST
LIVING. FOR DOING THE SAME WORK.
ONLINE WE HAVE IN SUPPORT OF
THIS MEASURE IS KATIE TEN TOLL.
CLINICAL PROFESSOR OF LAW AND
DIRECTOR OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE
CLINIC AT UC IRVINE LAW SCHOOL.
WE ALSO HAVE A CLARION VOICE TO
WHAT SECOND CHANCES REALLY LOOK
LIKE IN THE STATE IN THIS
COUNTRY. THAT BEING A CIVIL
NOON US WOULD COPE FIFTY CUT
FIFTY ON BEHALF AND ANTONIO
WELLINGTON. ALL WILD LAND
FIREFIGHTER FROM EL DORADO
COUNTY. AS CALIFORNIA CONTINUES
TO MOVE FORWARD TO PRACTICE.
REBEL TO IN THE PRACTICE OF
REAL BILL TATIAN WE MUST GIVE
INDIVIDUALS A TO Z. NEED TO
SUCCEED IN SOCIETY. AB TWENTY
ONE FORTY SEVEN IS INSTILLING
HOPE INTO CRIMINAL JUSTICE
SYSTEM GIVING INDIVIDUALS
OPPORTUNITY. PROBABLY
REINTEGRATE INTO SOCIETY. ON
THAT NOTE WE RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR A AYE VOTE. THANK YOU
CENTER BRADFORD WILL GO TO THE
FIRST WITNESS AND- I BELIEVE
THOSE ANTONIO WELLINGTON. GO
AHEAD ANTONIO. THANK YOUR HONOR
THIS IS KATIE TEND TO I BELIEVE
I'M THE FIRST WITNESS OKAY GO
AHEAD KATIE GO AHEAD. THANKS
THE MORNING KEREN MEMBERS MY
NAME IS KATIE TENTO AND I'M A
CO PROFESSOR OF LAW DIRECTOR OF
THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE CLINIC AT
UC IRVINE SCHOOL OF LAW.
THROUGH THE CLINIC I REPRESENT
INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE SEEKING TO
EXPUNGE THEIR CRIMINAL
CONVICTIONS. I AM VERY FAMILIAR
WITH THE BARRIERS AND HURDLES
FORMERLY INCARCERATED
INDIVIDUALS FACE WHEN SEEKING
TO MOVE ON FROM PAST MISTAKES.
IN THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS THE
CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE HAS MADE
GREAT STRIDES IN PROVIDING
FORMERLY INCARCERATED
INDIVIDUAL THE PATHWAY TO
EXPUNGE THEIR CONVICTIONS.
HOWEVER INDIVIDUALS WEE
CONVICTED OF FELONIES STILL
FACE AN ENORMOUS BARRIERS IN
GETTING THIS RELIEF AND OFTEN
HAVE DIFFICULTIES FINDING
MEANINGFUL EMPLOYMENT. IT IS
IMPORTANT FOR MEMBERS OF THIS
COMMITTEE TO KNOW THAT EVEN
ONCE FORMERLY INCARCERATED
INDIVIDUALS ARE ELIGIBLE TO
APPLY FOR AN EXPUNGEMENT OR
CERTIFICATE OF REHABILITATION
YEARS LATER. IT IS CERTAIN BY
ANY OF THE COURT WILL GRANT IT
CRIMINAL COURTS ARE HIGHLY
LOCALIZED THE DECISION IS IN
THE HANDS OF AN INDIVIDUAL
JUDGE AND THE OPINION OF THE
INDIVIDUAL PROSECUTOR IS OFTEN.
INFLUENTIAL REQUEST FOR
EXPUNGEMENT ARE OFTEN DENIED.
THIS BILL WOULD ALLOW AN
INDIVIDUAL TO WHO SUCCESSFULLY
COMPLETED ONE OF THE CCC FIRE
CAN'T PROGRAMS AS AN
INCARCERATED FIREFIGHTER. TO BE
ELIGIBLE TO APPLY FOR AN
EXPUNGEMENT UPON HIS OR HER
RELEASE FROM CUSTODY. IT WOULD
CREATE A PATHWAY FOR
PROFESSIONAL OPPORTUNITIES
IMMEDIATELY RATHER THAN HAVING
THIS INDIVIDUAL INDIVIDUAL WAIT
YEARS BEFORE HERE SHE COULD TRY
TO MOVE FORWARD IN THEIR
CAREER. THIS TIENEN IS CRITICAL
IT IS UPON A PERSON'S RELEASED
FROM CUSTODY WHEN THEY MOST
NEED A PATHWAY TO EMPLOYMENT.
BY ALLOWING A PERSON WHO'S
DEMONSTRATED IMPRESS
REHABILITATION BY SUCCESSFULLY
COMPLETING FIRE CAMP TO APPLY
FOR AN EXPUNGEMENT. THIS BILL
WERE WILL REDUCE RECIDIVISM AND
PROVIDE A CRITICAL OPPORTUNITY
FOR THE INDIVIDUAL AS WELL AS
HIS OR HER FAMILY. WE'VE ALL
HEARD THE STORIES OF REMINDERS
OF WHY THERE IS A NEED TO GIVE
PEOPLE THE OPPORTUNITY IF
NECESSARY TO IMPROVE THEIR
LIVES. MEMBERS I STRONGLY URGE
YOU TO VOTE I ON THIS MEASURE.
THANK YOU- DO WE HAVE THE OTHER
LEAD WITNESS THE YOU HAVE
LIMITED TIME LEFT THE GO AHEAD.
SELECT ONE AND I'M JUST GONNA
BE REALLY QUICK I'M SPEAKING ON

MORNING MADAM CHAIR AND MEMBERS
ACTUALLY THIS WAS WARY MORSE ON
BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA
DISTRICT ATTORNEYS ASSOCIATION-
WE ARE REGRETTABLY OPPOSED TO
A. B. TWO ONE FOUR SEVEN. WHILE
WE LOG THE MOTIVATION BEHIND
THIS PROPOSAL WE BELIEVE THAT
IT SIMPLY GOES TOO FAR THIS
BILL WOULD GRANT PC TWELVE OH
THREE POINT FOUR TYPE
EXPUNGEMENT AND DISMISSAL TO
PRISON SENTENCES THAT IS A
DRAMATIC DEPARTURE LONG
STANDING POLICY WHICH
HISTORICALLY LIMITED SUCH
RELIEF TO LOWER LEVEL PROBATION
OR- PAROLE SENTENCES. EVEN WHEN
AMENDMENTS TO HI MATES L. OPEN
PROGRAM IT'S STILL APPLIES TO
PERSONS CONVICTED OF MOST
SERIOUS AND VIOLENT OR THESE
SUCH AS ATTEMPTED MURDER
ROBBERY AND FIREARMS OFFENSES.
THE BILL STILL ALLOWS FOR
INSTEAD EXPUNGED AND DISMISSAL
UPON RELEASE FROM PRISON WITH
NO SUPERVISION PERIOD
WHATSOEVER NO CALL NO P. R. C.
HAS NOTHING. THAT'S A HUGE
GAMBLE THE AMENDED BILL SO THE
DENIAL OF RELIEF IS WITHOUT
PREJUDICE THAT MEANS THE
DEFENDANT CONSERVE. RECORD.
ALSO PAPER. WELL OF SCENARIO IS
POTS IT'S NOT LIKE TERMS OF THE
BILL A PERSON CONVICTED OF
CHILD BE EXCERPTED CHRIS. MADE
BY OF THE OF THIS BILL WORK IN
A DAYCARE FACILITY. OR SOMEONE
CONVICTED OF ELDER ABUSE SO
ELDER FINANCIAL CRIMES AND SENT
TO PRISON WILL UPON RELEASE THE
WORKING IN IS IN AN ASSISTED
LIVING FACILITY. FOSTER IS NOT
UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF THE
BILL WHICH WILL LEAVE A PERSON
CONVICTED OF THESE CRIMES AND
MANY OTHER SERIOUS FELONIES.
FROM DISCLOSING THAT CONVICTION
ON AN APPLICATION FOR A STATE
OR LOCAL WHITES. INCLUDING SUCH
BUSINESSES AS DAYCARE
FACILITIES AND ASSISTED LIVING
CENTERS SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY CAN
HIDE THEIR CONVICTIONS EVEN
FROM THOSE WHO OPERATE
SENSITIVE USINESSES WITH
VULNERABLE CLIENTELE. THERE ARE
OTHER EXPUNGEMENT STATUTES ON
THE BOOKS BUT STILL REQUIRE THE
PERSON MUST DISCLOSE THE
CONVICTION FOR LICENSING
PURPOSES. THAT WILL NOT APPLY
HOWEVER TO THOSE WHO WILL
BENEFIT FROM AB TWO ONE FOUR
SEVEN. CD SHARES A BELIEF WITH
MANY OF THE COMMITTEE THE THERE
ARE TOO MANY LICENSING
RESTRICTIONS ON PERSONS
CONVICTED OF FELONIES TO
PREVENT THEM FROM EMPLOYMENT
AND HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES. WE
HAVE REPEATEDLY SIGNAL OUR
WILLINGNESS TO BEGIN A
COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW AND
ELIMINATE RESTRICTIONS THAT
DON'T MAKE SENSE AND QUIRK OUR
EFFORTS TO FULLY REINTEGRATE
THOSE CONVICTED OF FELONIES
BACK INTO OUR MAIN STREET. BUT
SOME OF THESE DISCLOSURE
REQUIREMENTS SUCH AS THE TWO
LISTED ABOVE MAKE ABUNDANT GOOD
SENSE. SURE BUSINESS OWNER HAVE
THE RIGHT TO KNOW THE PERSON
HERE SHE IS CONSIDERING HIRING
AS A HOME HEALTH CARE WORKER
WAS CONVICTED AND SENT TO
PRISON. FOR ABUSING OR STEALING.
L. BACK. STILL SAYS NO. AND
MISTER. DISAGREE WE RECOGNIZE
THE NEED FOR FIRE FIGHTING
PERSONNEL TO COMBAT
CALIFORNIA'S WILDFIRE DATE. AND
WE APPRECIATE THE COURAGE AND
DEDICATION OF MANY OF THOSE
INMATES TO PERFORM THIS
DANGEROUS MORE. THERE ARE
ALREADY NUMEROUS BENEFITS THAT
ACCRUE TO AN INMATE WHO WORKS
ON FIRE YEAH LIKE TO PULL ONE
CUSTODY QUOTE. BUT THIS BILL
PLAYS FAST AND LOOSE WITH
PUBLIC SAFETY AND THE RIGHT THE
BUSINESS OWNERS AND THE
COMMUNITY TO PROTECT THEMSELVES
AND THEIR CLIENTS WELL THESE
REASONS WE RESPECTFULLY URGE A
NO VOTE. THANK YOU ON THERE'S
NO OTHER LEAD WITNESS LISTED SO
WE WILL NOW TURN TO THE PHONE
LINES TO SEE IF THERE ARE ANY
WITNESSES AND WHO ARE CALLED IN
IN OUR. AND LADIES AND
GENTLEMEN ISSUE OPPOSITION
PLEASE PRESS ONE THEN ZERO AT
THIS TIME. ONCE AGAIN TO SHOW
OPPOSITION PLEASE PRESS ONE AND
THEN ZERO AT THE TIME. I HAVE
NO ONE SHOWING OPPOSITION
PLEASE CONTINUE. RIGHT. TO KNOW
OTHER OPPOSITION LET'S SEE IF
THERE'S ANY CAR OR QUESTIONS.
SENATOR A. YOU KNOW I CAN THE I
HAVE FOLLOWED THIS ISSUE FOR
WAR WE HAD A CAMP FOR. A PEOPLE
WHO WERE INTERESTED PRISONERS
WHO ARE INTERESTED IN BECOMING
FIREFIGHTERS AFTER THEIR TERMS
HAD ENDED IN HAD BEEN
SUCCESSFUL IN ASSISTING IN
FIGHTING FIRES MANY OF WHICH
WE'VE I'VE SADLY HEAD OF MY
DISTRICT. THE PROGRAM IS QUITE
A STRICT. AND YOU CAN'T GET
INTO THIS PROGRAM IF YOU HAVE
BEEN CONVICTED OF WHAT I WOULD
CALL HEINOUS CRIMES. THE
DISTRICT ATTORNEYS ASSOCIATION
I BELIEVE ON THE PHONE CLAIMED-
THAT THAT WAS NOT THE CASE- I
DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS ACCURATE
OR CERTAINLY PEOPLE DON'T WANT.
PEOPLE IN THE A SENIOR
FACILITIES WHO HAVE BEEN
CONVICTED PREVIOUSLY OF CRIMES
ASSOCIATED WITH SENIOR ABUSE
AND I'M WONDERING IF YOU COULD
RESPOND TO THOSE CLAIMS THAT
WERE MADE BY THE- DISTRICT
ATTORNEY'S ASSOCIATION AS TO
WHO WOULD BE ELIGIBLE. IN THIS
PROGRAM AND WHETHER THE PROGRAM
WOULD EXTEND TO SUCH THINGS OR
WHETHER THERE'S A LITTLE
HYPERBOLE GOING ON HERE OR NOT.
I AM ALWAYS SADDENED BY. THE
STATEMENTS IN OPPOSITION BY DH
THROUGHOUT- THE STATE WHEN IT
COMES TO SECOND CHANCES IN
REHABILITATION- IT CLEARLY
STATES THE FOLKS TO COMMITTED
SEXUAL OFFENSES ARTS IN AN
INDUSTRY OF ESCAPING VIOLENCE
ARE AUTOMATICALLY- INELIGIBLE
FOR. NOT ONLY PARTICIPATE IN A
FIRE CAT BUT ALSO. THEY
WOULDN'T LEAD IN B. AND
PRESERVE FOR EXPUNGEMENT I DID
EXPUNGEMENT BILL COUPLE YEARS
AGO WHEN I WAS IN THE ASSEMBLY
AND- IT CLICKED AND IT PASSED
IN IT BUT IT CLEARLY STATES
THAT. NOTHING IS HIDDEN EVEN
WITH EXPUNGEMENT WITH THE
INTERNET AND TECHNOLOGY TODAY
YOU CAN'T HIDE FROM YOUR PAST
SO THE SIT HERE AND SAY THAT
IT'S- ARE THE EXPLAINED TO WILL
PREVENT SOMEONE FROM DOING A
BACKGROUND CHECK EVEN NEED NEED
NOT EVEN CHECKING THE BOX
PEOPLE STILL FIND OUT THAT
YOU'VE BEEN CONVICTED IT'S
SELECT. ALL WE'RE SEEING THIS
GIVE HE'S INDIVIDUAL ICE
OPPORTUNITY TO DO WHAT THEY'RE-
WHILE IN CAR. THEY HAVE PUT
THEIR LIVES ON THE LINE TO
FIGHT FIRES ALL THROUGH DISH
WE'VE SEEN THE DEVASTATION. OF
IT'S PAST YEARS THE MOST OF THE
FOLKS FRONTLINE. ARE A MADE. I
WAS PRO DIRECTOR FOR YEARS IT
ELLIE CONSERVE CORPS MANY OF
THOSE YOUNG FOLKS EIGHTEEN TO
TWENTY FOUR WORKED IN BACK
COUNTRY MANY MORE FORMALLY
INCARCERATED MINIMAL FOUGHT ON
THE FIRE LINES AND THEY CAN
COME BACK. TO THEIR OLD HOME
INTO THE CITY OF LA AND GET A
JOB AT THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. AND
THEY WERE SOME OF THE BEST MOST
RELIABLE CORPS MEMBERS WE HEAD
THOSE WHO WERE FORMERLY
INCARCERATED BECAUSE THEY
APPRECIATE A SECOND CHANCE MORE
THAN MANY PEOPLE WHO. HAVE WHAT
A SILVER SPOON IN A LIVE A LIFE
IN AND OUT LIVE THE LIFE OF
PRIVILEGE SO. I THINK THE DA
OVERSTATED BILLS- EXAMPLES
AGAIN- YOU'RE ABLE TO STEAL MY-
LOOK AT ONCE BACKGROUND BUT
AGAIN IT CLEARLY STATES THOSE
INDIVIDUALS WHO WOULD BE AN
ELIGIBLE FOR THIS PROGRAM. IF
THERE'S ANY OTHER COMMENTS OR
QUESTIONS GO AHEAD SENATOR
MITCHELL. TAKE YOUR MUCH LET ME
STATE THAT I WILL ABSOLUTELY BE
SUPPORTING THE BILL I WAS JUST
CURIOUS AND THE- FOR JACKIE MAY
NOT KNOW BUT JUST FOR THE
RECORD WHY NOT OTHER SIMILAR
PROGRAMS INVOLVING- THE SIMILAR
PROFILE INDIVIDUALS WHY YOU
KNOW JUST A FIRE CAMP. SO THIS
AT SOME POINT OF THE AFRICAN
GET BACK TO ME BECAUSE IT SEEMS
TO ME COULD BE EXPANDED BEYOND
THAT BUT I'LL BE SUPPORTING THE
BILL TODAY AND I'LL MAKE THE

SOMEONE STONE THIS BILL WILL
ENSURE THAT ANY INTELLECTUALLY
DISABLED PEOPLE WHO ARE
CURRENTLY ON DEATH ROW ARE RE
SENTENCED AND WILL PROTECT
INTELLECTUALLY DISABLED PEOPLE
FROM BEING SENTENCED TO DEATH
IN THE FUTURE. IN TWO THOUSAND
AND TWO THE SUPREME COURT
DETERMINED THAT THE EIGHTH
AMENDMENT OF THE U. S.
CONSTITUTION PROHIBITS THE
EXECUTION OF INTELLECTUALLY
DISABLED PEOPLE. CALIFORNIA
STATE LEGISLATURE ENACTED A LAW
TO CODIFY THAT DECISION THE
FOLLOWING YEAR. OVER THE NEXT
SEVENTEEN YEARS THE MEDICAL
COMMUNITY MADE FAST ADVANCE
VANCE'S. AND OUR UNDERSTANDING
OF BRAIN DEVELOPMENT AND
DISABILITIES BUT THE LARGEST
HAS NOT MODERNIZE THE LAW TO
REFLECT THOSE ADVANCES. AS A
RESULT CALIFORNIA USES UNFAIR
AND OUTDATED STANDARDS TO
DETERMINE IF SOMEONE IS
INELIGIBLE FOR EXECUTION. IT IS
LIKELY THAT SOME OF THE SEVEN
HUNDRED AND THIRTY INDIVIDUALS
CURRENTLY WAITING ON DEATH ROW
HAVE INTELLECTUALLY.
INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES
ACCORDING TO CLINICAL STANDARDS
THOSE INDIVIDUALS MUST BE RE
SENTENCED AND REMOVED FROM
DEATH ROW. AB TWENTY FIVE
TWELVE WILL UPDATE THE PENAL
CODE AND REFLECT THE PROGRESS
CALIFORNIA HAS MADE BY
REQUIRING ON SET OF
INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES TO
HAVE OCCURRED DURING THE
DEVELOPMENT PERIOD. CLARIFYING
THAT IN POST CONVICTION
PROCEEDINGS. EXPERTS ON
INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES MUST
TESTIFY TO OUT OF COURT
STATEMENTS USED AND INFORMING
THEIR OPINION AND ALLOWING A
PERSON TO MAKE A SHOWING OF
INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY BY
USING THE KIND OF EVIDENCE THAT
WOULD BE RELIED UPON BY A
QUALIFIED EXPERT. ADDITIONALLY
AB. TWELVE TWENTY FIVE TWELVE
WILL PROHIBIT PROSECUTORS FROM
ARE GOING TO POP UP. A PERSON'S
IQ. BECAUSE OF THEIR RACE TO
RENDER THEM ALL DOUBLE FOR
EXECUTION. A. B. LIKE TAKING A
COGNITIVE BRING TO US IN BEING
ABLE TO IDENTIFY ITEMS IN BE
NOW CLASSIFIED AS A STABLE
GENIUS. THIS IS A BLATANT
RACIAL DISCRIMINATION AND WE
CANNOT ALLOW IT TO CONTINUE IN
A CALIFORNIA COURT ROOMS. WE
ALREADY KNOW THAT THE DEATH
PENALTY KILLS INNOCENT PEOPLE
AND IS APPLIED UNEQUAL ALONG
RACIAL AND SOCIO ECONOMICAL.
ECONOMIC LINES WE ALSO KNOW
THAT INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY
PEOPLE FACE A HIGHER RISK ARE
WRONGFUL EXECUTION. IN PASSING
B TWELVE TWENTY FIVE TWELVE
OUR STATE WILL ADOPT THE
MEDICAL COMMUNITY'S DEFINITION
OF INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY AND
WILL PROHIBIT ARTIFICIAL
INFLATION OF AYE CUES TO MAKE
BLACK AND LEAD KNACKS PEOPLE
ELIGIBLE FOR EXECUTION I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR VOTE.
THANK YOU SENATOR BRADFORD WE
NOW HAVE TO LEAD SUPPORT
WITNESSES OF ONE WE HAVE ON THE
LINE- NEW SHOULD SHOW AND WE'RE
WAITING FOR A TASHA. MINSKER SO
LET'S START WITH MICHELLE. GOOD
MORNING- MY NAME IS NATION'S
JOHN I'M ACTUALLY THE ONLY
SUBSTANTIVE WITNESS IN SUPPORT-
I'M LEGAL DIRECTOR AT THE
HABEAS CORPUS RESOURCE CENTER
AND MISTER STONE STAFF ASKED ME
TO ADDRESS HOW AB TWENTY FIVE
TWELVE. WILL BRING CALIFORNIA'S
INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY STATUTE
INTO COMPLIANCE WITH U. S.
SUPREME COURT LAW. IN TWO
THOUSAND THREE OUR LEGISLATURE
PASSED SB THREE ADDING SECTION
THIRTEEN SEVENTY SIX OF THE
PENAL CODE AND CODIFYING AT
CONVENE VIRGINIA. DIDN'T SEND
THE US SUPREME COURT HAS ISSUED
SEVERAL OPINION OF CLARIFYING
AND EXPANDING UPON THEIR HOLDEN
ATKINS STRAPPING OVER AND OVER
THAT STATES MUST. OKAY TO THE
SIGN INTO ABILITY PEEL CODE
SECTION THIRTEEN SEVENTY SIX
AND CONTRAST HAS BEEN UPDATED
ONLY WANT TO CHANGE THE TERM
MENTALLY RETARDED TO
INTELLECTUALLY DISABLED AB
TWENTY FIVE TWELVE BRINGS THE
STATUTE IN LINE WITH THE U. S.
SUPREME COURT OF FORTY AND
CURRENT CLINICAL STANDARDS.
EVERY AMENDMENT PROPOSED HERE
IS ALIGNED WITH THE AMERICAN
PSYCHIATRIC ASSOCIATION YES
SOME FIVE IN THE PUBLICATIONS
OF THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION ON
INTELLECTUAL AND DEVELOPMENTAL
DISABILITIES. FIRST AS A
SCIENTIFIC MATTER THE
DEVELOPMENTAL PERIOD EXTENDS
BEYOND THE EIGHTEENTH BIRTHDAY.
IN RECOGNITION OF THE FACT THE
DSM FIVE DROPPED A STRICT AGE
CUT OFF FOR INTELLECTUAL
DISABILITY DEFINING IT AS A
CONDITION THAT MUST MANIFEST.
DURING THE DEVELOPMENTAL
PERIOD. THIS BILL DOES THE SAME.
SECOND CLINICAL STANDARDS
REQUIRE MENTAL HEALTH
PROFESSIONALS TO RELY ON A
THOROUGH SOCIAL HISTORY
RELEVANT RECORDS AND DOCUMENTS
AND FORMAL INTERVIEWS IN
ASSESSING INTELLECTUAL
DISABILITY. AB TWENTY FIVE
TWELVE BRINGS CALIFORNIA LAW
INTO ACCORD WITH U. S. SUPREME
COURT PRECEDENT BY ALLOWING
JUDGES TO HEAR AND CONSIDER ALL
CLINICALLY RELEVANT EVIDENCE.
THIRD BY CREATING AN ALTERNATE
WAY TO MAKE A PRIMA FASHION
SHOWING THIS BILL WILL HELP
CALIFORNIA COURTS BETTER
IDENTIFY THOSE FACING EXECUTION
WHO MAY BE INTELLECTUALLY
DISABLED. THERE IS NO
DISADVANTAGE TO THE STATE HERE
THE DEFENDANT OR PETITIONER
STILL HAS THE BURDEN OF PROOF
AT A HEARING AND THE FACT
FINDERS FINAL DECISION WILL
ALWAYS BE BASED ON THE EVIDENCE
THE PARTY TO PREVENT. FINALLY
TO WORK IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE
SYSTEM IS TO KNOW THAT RACISM
IN FACT IT. WHAT WE HAVE SEEN
SINCE ATKINS IS THAT RACISM
PLAGUE THOSE HEARINGS AS WELL.
BEER IS IN THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
HAVE ARGUED IN ESSENCE THAT
BLACK AND BROWN PEOPLE SHOULD
HAVE THEIR I. Q. SCORES
ADJUSTED UPWARD. BECAUSE THE
TESTS WERE MADE FOR THEM. BUT
HAVE NO GROUNDING IN AND IS
CONTRARY TO THE MEDICAL
COMMUNITY STANDARDS FOR
EVALUATING INTELLECTUAL
DISABILITY. ARTIFICIALLY
INFLATING A PERSON OF COLOR IQ
SO THAT WE CAN EXECUTE THEM IS
ANTITHETICAL TO THE STATE'S
IDEALS AND TO THE CONSTITUTION.
AB TWENTY FIVE TWELVE WHEN THAT
THE STATE IDENTIFIES AND
PREVENTS THE EXECUTION OF
INTELLECTUALLY DISABLED PEOPLE
ADDS THE CONSTITUTIONAL CHOIRS

ANGELA BACKERS CAN YOU HEAR ME
YES. GOOD MORNING RANDALL
ATTACKERS I AM JUST RECENTLY
RETIRED- ALAMEDA COUNTY
PROSECUTOR HANDLING CAPITAL
CASES FOR TWENTY YEARS
PROSECUTOR FOR THIRTY SIX YEARS
AND THE CHAIR OF THE
CAPITALIZATION COMMITTEE FOR
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA- THIS
BILL IS. FLAWED IN MANY WAYS
FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS I'LL
BRIEFLY DESCRIBE FOR THIS
COMMITTEE I'M ASKING FOR YOUR
STERN YOURS OPPOSITION TO IT
BECAUSE IT STRIPS CRIME VICTIMS
AND THEIR LOVED ONE. OF ALL OF
THEIR RIGHTS WITH REGARD TO
MURDER CASES AND OUT OF THIS-
THIS LAW THE LOT OF FOLKS WHO
ARE INTELLECTUALLY DISABLED IS
GUARANTEED BY THE UNITED STATES
A PRE COURT TWO THOUSAND AND
TWO. UNDER THE CASE OF ATKINS
BURST OF VIRGINIA AND IT
DEFINES INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY
IF WE DO NOT NEED A LOT OF. IN
ADDITION TO NOT BEING CRIME
VICTIMS. OF THEIR RIGHT TO THAT
THIS CLAIM COULD BE ADDED WERE
CRIME VICTIMS HAVE NO PRESIDENT
NO SAY NO RIGHT. AT THE LAST
MINUTE BY A HABEAS. PETITION
WHEN THE CRIME VICTIMS AREN'T
EVEN NOTIFIED AND PRESIDENT AND
HAVE A RIGHT TO BE IN THE
COURTROOM THIS COULD BE DONE-
VIA HABEAS MANY YEARS LATER. IT
ALSO CHANGES THE DEFINITION OF
INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY TO MAKE
IT VAGUE ARBITRARY AND
CAPRICIOUS AND THAT IS BECAUSE
IT IS CLEAR THE DEFINITION OF
INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY DOES
NOT NEED TO BE CHANGED. AGE IS
VERY CLEAR THAT ALL QUALIFIED
EXPERT PHD AND MEDICAL EXPERTS
ALL AGREE THAT A PERSON WHO
SUFFERS FROM AN INTELLECTUAL
DISABILITY MANIFEST ITSELF WELL
BEFORE THE AGE OF EIGHTEEN.
THIS BILL IS VAGUE AND
COMPLETION. BECAUSE IT IS WELL
IT COULD DEVELOP ANYTIME BY ANY
DOCTOR COME THAT. EIGHTEEN BUT
JUST RECENTLY THAT YOU MIGHT
HAVE SOME KIND OF INTELLECTUAL
DISABILITY AND THERE IS NO
EVIDENCE THAT PROSECUTORS
COMPLETELY CONTRARY TO WHAT WAS
STATED TO YOU A MOMENT AGO
THERE IS NO EVIDENCE. THAT
PROSECUTORS ARGUE TO CAPITAL
JURY. THAT YOU MUST TO PUMP UP
AN IQ SCORE OF A PERSON OF
COLOR SO THAT THEY CAN NOT BE
EXECUTED THAT IS A FALSE CLAIM.
AND SO I AM URGING YOU TO
OPPOSE THIS BECAUSE IT'S
UNNECESSARY IT'S ALREADY
GOVERNED BY THE UNITED STATES
SUPREME COURT AND- SANDWICHES
YOUR TURN LEAD LINED THE WAY IT
IS. YOU HAVE HIT YOUR AND IT
MAKES IT BAG ARBITRARY
COMPLETION THANK YOU AND I
APPRECIATE YOUR OPPOSITION. ALL
RIGHTS LET'S SEE IF THERE ARE
ANY OTHER WITNESSES IN
OPPOSITION OPERATOR THERE'S NO
ONE WHO'S COME INTO THIS ROOM
SO I KNOW THAT THERE'S NINE TO
CLEAN THIS. WILL YOU QUEUE UP
ANY CALLERS IN OPPOSITION. IF
YOU ARE IN OPPOSITION YOU MAY
KEEP UP BY PRESSING ONE THEN
ZERO ON THE TELEPHONE KEY PAD
AGAIN THAT IS ONE THEN ZERO.
YOU HAVE NO ONE IN THE QUEUE AT
THIS TIME. CORRECT SO- LET'S
SEE IF THERE IS- COMMENTS OR
QUESTIONS ON THE- DICE SENATOR
MITCHELL. OKAY CENTER JACKSON
YEAH ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE
LAST WITNESSES TESTIMONY THAT
THIS BILL EXPANDS THE
DEFINITION AND DOES MORE THAN
CONF- CONFORMANCE TO THE
FEDERAL LAW COULD YOU RESPOND
TO THAT. I DON'T BELIEVE IT
EXPANDS IT JUST SAYS IT BRINGS
IT UP THE CALIFORNIA HASN'T
DONE ANYTHING AND SEVENTEEN
YEARS SINCE THE RULING IN TWO
THOUSAND AND TWO. THERE IS AN
IN LINE TO. OF THE CLINICAL
ADVANCES IN. THINGS THAT HAVE
BEEN DISCOVERED SINCE THAT TIME
IN AND BRINGS PENAL CODE IN
COMPLIANCE WITH WHAT WAS PASSED
IN TWO THOUSAND TWO. THAT'S MY
UNDERSTANDING THE- ED. THANK
YOU THE AT THE OTHER QUESTION
ADDRESSES THE CONCERNS
EXPRESSED ABOUT TAKING AWAY.
THE RIGHTS OF VICTIMS I'M NOT
QUITE SURE UNDERSTOOD I AND
THAT BUT THAT'S- WOULD BE OF
CONCERN DO YOU HAVE ANY
UNDERSTANDING OF WESTEROS
SPEAKS NOTHING TO THAT AND IT'S
NO REASON WHY ONE WOULD. REMOVE
A VICTIMS RIGHTS TO VOICE THEIR
OPPOSITION OR ANYTHING ELSE TO.
ONCE EXECUTION OR- SENTENCING
SO THIS BILL DOESN'T ADDRESS
THAT AT ALL SO. THANK YOU. I
WOULD JUST THE STATE THAT THE
ANALYSIS IN RESPONSE TO THAT
THE ANALYSIS INDICATES CLEARLY
THAT. ALL THE BILL DOES IS
REVISED THE DEFINITION TO- THE-
IT CONSISTENT WITH THE ADAPTIVE
BEHAVIOR IN FIVE. CURRENT
CLINICAL STANDARDS SO THE
REVISION DOES NOT BY THE NOW
SIS- MEET THE- TYPE OF CHANGE
THAT THE OPPOSITION
REPRESENTATIVE DESCRIBED AND-
SO YOU CAN LOOK AT PAGE FOUR OF
THE ANALYSIS WORD DESCRIBES
WHAT THE BILL DOES IN TERMS OF
THE CHANGE IN DEFINITION. THANK
YOU MADAM TRUCK MIGHT HAVE
MISSED SOMETHING BAD A
DESPONDENT RECOGNIZES THE
CLINICAL STAND GO AHEAD SENATOR
DIETARY RING WITH YOU JUST MIND
AND MODERNIZES CLINICAL
STANDARDS. LET ME SEE IF
THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS OR
COMMENTS. THREE THIRTEEN- NINE
SENATOR- BRADFORD WOULD YOU
LIKE TO CLOSE YES I WANT TO
THANK JOHN. BOB 20% THIS BILL I
THINK IT'S ONE WHOSE TIME HAS
COME AGAIN- HISTORY OF SHOWN
THAT THE MAJORITY OF FOLKS WHO
HAVE BEEN EXECUTED IN THIS
COUNTRY HAVE BEEN PEOPLE OF
COLOR- MANY TIMES IT'S PROVEN
INNOCENT AND ALSO MANY TIMES
WITH INTELLECTUAL CHALLENGES
THAT WOULD DEEM OTHER FOLKS AN
ELIGIBLE FOR THE DEATH PENALTY.
AND IT'S SOMEWHAT IRONIC THAT
WE ARE GOING TO POP UP- BLACK
AND BROWN FOLKS INTELLECTUAL
CATHOLIC BACK TO PASSAGE WHEN
IT COMES TO EXECUTING ON BUT
NOT IN CONSIDERATION OF COLLEGE
ADMISSIONS OR JOBS IN. IN THE
COUNTRY SO. WITH THAT WE SHOULD
LAST FOR. THANK YOU- LET'S SEE.
THIRD. YES I NOISE ABOUT I'M
JUST CHECKING TO SEE FAR MORE
PARTICIPANT HAD ANY COMMENT BUT
THE HAND IS NOT UP SO IS THERE
A MOTION ON THE BILL. CENTER
JACKSON MOVES THE BILL- ON IT
IS IT WOULD BE DO PASSED TO THE
FLOOR. THEN I WANTED TO THINK-
BEFORE I TAKE. ASK FOR THE ROLL
CALL IN WHEN IT THANK ASSEMBLY
MEMBER STONE AND BY EXTENSION
HIS PRESENTER FOR BRINGING THIS
FORWARD BECAUSE I THINK IT IS
IMPORTANT FOR US TO. MAKE SURE
THAT THE DEFINITIONS THAT WE
ARE USING IN THE PROCEDURES AND
PRACTICES WE ARE USING TO FIT
THE CURRENT. CLINICAL
DEFINITIONS WE HAVE MADE
VARIOUS ADJUSTMENTS INTO OUR
STATUTES AND CODES BASED ON.
NEW MEDICAL. INFORMATION NEW
RESEARCH NEW SCIENCE ON A
VARIETY OF THINGS. AND I THINK
THIS IS. AN IMPORTANT IN JUST
MEANT CONSIDERING THAT IT IS.
THE BRING IT IS A THE STATUTE
THAT IS A DETERMINER ON WHETHER
AS WE GET SOMEONE A DEATH
SENTENCE OR NOT. SO I SUPPORT
THE BILL AND- WE WILL NOW HAVE.

THE ISSUE EXCESSIVELYSHOULD IT
HAPPEN I HAVE A LITTLE TROUBLE
IMAGINING IT BUT- FOR THAT IT
WOULD HAPPEN BUT I THINK THIS

PATTERNED THEIR LAWS AFTER
CALIFORNIA'S SO IN NOW ARE A
LOT HAS BEEN MODIFIED OVER THE
LAST COUPLE YEARS. I'M AND- IT
TO INCLUDE IT BOTH. ALSO ADDED
SOME RESTRICTIONS AND MANY
STATES HAVE PATTERN THAT AND SO
I FEEL THAT. GIVEN THAT THE
VERY PURPOSE OUR LAW IS
ENHANCED OR IS IMPROVED IF
ANYONE WHO COMES FROM ANOTHER
STATE WHO IS UNDER SUCH A
RESTRAINING ORDER THAT IT
CONTINUES WITH THEM BECAUSE OUR
WHOLE PURPOSE ALREADY KNOW THAT
UNFORTUNATELY. OR OTHER GUN
VIOLENCE PREVENTION LAWS WERE
NO ABLE TO REALLY AFFECT STATE
TO STATE SO IN OTHER WORDS IF
YOU'RE- YOU CAN GO ACROSS STATE
LINES EVEN THOUGH TECHNICALLY
AS A CALIFORNIAN YOU'RE
SUPPOSED TO OWN THESE. YES THE
FIRE ARMS YOU CAN GO IN GET
THEM IN OTHER STATES. THIS IS
ONE OF THE WAYS THAT OUR STATE
IS LESS SAFE EVEN THOUGH WE
HAVE REALLY EXCELLENT GUN
VIOLENCE- PREVENTION OR
LIMITATIONS LAWS WE BECOME LESS
STAY SAFE BECAUSE OF PRACTICES
OF OTHER STATES WHERE IS IN
THIS CASE WE COULD BECOME MORE
SAFE BECAUSE OF THE PRACTICE OF
OTHER STATES. AND THAT'S WHY I
THINK IT IS A GOOD MEASURE AND
I APPRECIATE THAT ASSEMBLY

HUNTING AND RECREATIONAL SPORTS
INDUSTRY. WE WERE AGAINST THE
BILL THIRTEEN YEARS AGO WE ARE
AGAINST THE BILL TODAY WHETHER
CABLE PLACEMENT MICHAEL
STAMPING OR DUAL PLACEMENT
MICRO STAMPING THE FACT OF THE
MATTER IS THIS TECHNOLOGY DOES
NOT WORK. BUT DON'T TAKE MY
WORD FOR IT WHEN THIS COMMITTEE
IN THIS LEGISLATIVE BODY
CONSIDERED THIS ISSUE THIRTEEN
YEARS AGO THERE WERE TWO MAJOR
STUDIES THAT WERE COMMISSIONED
ONE WITH THE NATIONAL ACADEMY
OF SCIENCES AND ONE WITH THE
UNIVERSE. ORNETTE DAVIS EACH
STUDY CONCLUDED AND I QUOTE AT
THE TIME IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED
THAT A MANDATE FOR
IMPLEMENTATION OF THIS
TECHNOLOGY ALSO MY ADAM
AUTOMATIC HANDGUNS THE. STATE
OF CALIFORNIA BE MADE. FURTHER
TESTING ANALYSIS IN VALUE. IS
RE. THE TECHNO IS QUALITY. I
WOULD POINT IT NINETY SECONDS
IS NOT ENOUGH TO GO INTO THIS
VERY COMPLEX ISSUE THAT HAS
OVER DECADES WORTH OF
LITIGATION. AND ON A DEBATE ON
IT I WOULD. ASK YOU TO LOOK AT
OUR TESTIMONY WHICH GOES INTO
GREAT DEPTHS OUT THIS. ONCE YOU
COUNTER WHAT- ON SOME OF THE
PROPONENTS OF SAID ABOUT THIS
BILL THIS WOULD NOT BE A QUIET
SOLVING TOOL UNFORTUNATELY NEED
TECHNOLOGY EASILY DISPUTABLE
YOU CAN FILE OFF THE- YOU CAN
BY LAW THE FIRING PIN IT HAS
LIMITED MARKINGS WHICH MEANS
THAT THERE IS A GREAT QUESTIONS
ABOUT WHETHER IT WOULD BE
COMPLIANT WITH THE EIGHT DIGIT
ALPHA NUMERICAL CODE THAT IS
REQUIRED BY CALIFORNIA
ADDITIONALLY IT'S VERY COST
PROHIBITIVE WHEN YOU SEE THE
DAY MISTER THEIR STUDY. IT WAS
QUOTED TO YOU TWENTY DOLLARS A
FIRING PAN IT TURNED OUT TO BE
OVER TWO HUNDRED FIFTY DOLLARS
FOR FILING AND IN ADDITION AS
DâN REDUCTION THE TECHNOLOGY
IS STILL AND COVERED BY A
PATENT MEANING THAT IT ADDS A
SEE EVERY SINGLE TIME THIS
TECHNOLOGY IS USED-
ADDITIONALLY THEY HAD CAN MEAN-
SCIENCES REVIEW FOUND THAT IT
WAS UNRELIABLE MEANING THAT
POLICE OFFICERS AND DETECTIVES
COULD NOT USE THE TECHNOLOGY TO
MATCH A IN THE NATION WITH THE
PARTICULAR- HISTORY. ON THE OR
YOU NEED TO WRAP UP. WITH ALL
WRAPPED UP RAY NOW THANK YOU

NINE TWO PLEASE GO AHEAD. HI MY
NAME IS WHALEN CHANG BUT
DISAGREE WITH LEGISLATIVE
FINDING IT STATED ON THE TECH
THE BILL I BELIEVE THAT THE
COST OF MAX ON FIVE DOLLARS FOR
GUN. HAS ALREADY BEEN STATED.
THAT THERE WAS ONLY FIVE
DOLLARS I THINK HANDGUN
MANUFACTURERS WOULD HAVE
IMPLEMENTED THAT RATHER THAN
CHOOSE NOT TO SO ANY NEW
HANDGUNS AT ALL. IN CALIFORNIA
AS ALREADY MENTIONED BOB BY THE
BILL TWENTY SIX NINETY NINE THE
DIFFICULTY OF GAIN NEW HANDGUNS
THAT'S WHY WE HAVE TO MAKE
EXCEPTIONS FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT

EXISTING AND FUNDS IN. OUR
ARMED JUST CURIOUS WHAT THAT
MEANS YES SO CURRENTLY. IT WILL
IT WILL REMOVE THE THREE FROM
THE LAST WHEN THE NEW IS ADDED
ON. IN IN IN ORDER TO
ACCOMMODATE. BUT THEN THE NEW
GUY AND THAT IS BEING ADDED TO
THE LIST THAT CREATES AN
EQUILIBRIUM SO TO SPEAK WELL
ACTUALLY MINIMIZES THE LIST SO
I'M ONE OF THE ARGUMENTS THAT
WAS MADE WAS THAT IF YOU KEEP
ADDING GUNS TO THE ROSTER

FEW MORE OFTEN YOU COULD
ACTUALLY ELIMINATE COMPETITION.
IN SO THAT'S WHY DINNERS AND IS
