PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT SIGNED
EXECUTIVE ORDER NINETY SIXTY
SIX UNDER HICH MORE THAN A
HUNDRED TWENTY THOUSAND PEOPLE
WERE INCARCERATED TEN DIFFERENT
CAMPS SCATTERED THROUGHOUT THE
WESTERN UNITED STATES DURING
WORLD WAR TWO. JAPANESE
AMERICANS WERE TARGETED
STRIPPED OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS
AND IMPRISONED SIMPLY BECAUSE
OF THEIR HERITAGE. SEVENTY NINE
YEARS LATER WE'RE STILL
REMEMBERING THIS PAINFUL
HISTORY AND REFLECTING ON THESE
UNJUST POLICIES ROOTED FROM
DISCRIMINATION SYSTEMIC RACISM
AND XENOPHOBIA. AS WE ARE
FORTUNATE WITNESSING A LARGE
UPTICK IN HATE CRIMES AGAINST
ASIAN AMERICANS STUDER OF
RACIST RHETORIC ABOUT THE COVE
IT PANDEMIC. IN THE LAST MONTH
THE BAY AREA HAS PARTICULARLY
SEEN MORE MORE ATTACKS DIRECTED
TOWARDS SENIORS FACT ONE EIGHTY
FOUR YEAR OLD MAN OF THAI
DESCENT WAS PUSHED TO HIS
DEATH. IN A NUMBER OF THE
ATTACK. EXECUTIVE ORDER NINETY
SIXTY SIX IS A STARK REMINDER
THAT WE MUST ACT WITH
DETERMINATION TO NEVER REPEAT.
THE SAME BETRAYAL OF OUR VALUES
AS A NATION AND TO PROTECT THE
CIVIL RIGHTS AND LIBERTIES OF.
ALL AMERICANS. I ASK YOU TO
JOIN ME IN REMEMBERING THE
ISSUANCE OF EXECUTIVE ORDER
NINETY SIXTY SIX. I CONTINUE TO

THANK YOU. SENATOR MEN. THANK
YOU MADAM PRESIDENT MORE GOOD
AFTERNOON MEMBERS AND THANK YOU
TO MY COLLEAGUE FROM SACRAMENTO
FOR INTRODUCING THIS RESOLUTION.
AS A MEMBER OF THE EIGHTY AYE
LEGISLATIVE CAUCUS I WANT TO
REITERATE SOME OF THE POINTS
THAT MY COLLEAGUES IN
SACRAMENTO JUST MADE. IT IS
IMPORTANT TO RECOGNIZE THE
PREVIOUS HARDSHIP THAT ARE
ASIAN AMERICAN ANCESTORS HAVE
SUFFERED SO THAT THIS TYPE OF
INCIDENT NEVER HAPPENS TODAY.
WITHOUT THESE PREVIOUS
SACRIFICES PEOPLE LIKE MY
COLLEAGUE FROM SACRAMENTO NINE
WOULD NOT BE SERVING IN THE
STATE LEGISLATURE TODAY-
ROUGHLY THIRTY THREE THOUSAND
JAPANESE VETERANS FOUGHT
BRAVELY FOR A COUNTRY DURING
WAR TO. IF THEIR FAMILIES WERE
INCARCERATED BEHIND BARBED WIRE
YOU TO FDR'S EXECUTIVE ORDER
NINETY SIXTY SIX SOMETHING THAT
WILL GO DOWN IN HISTORY. AS ONE
OF THE WORST ACTIONS THAT HIS
PRESIDENCY. NOW WE KNOW THAT
THE SCAPEGOATING OF ASIAN
AMERICANS GOES ALL THE WAY BACK
TO THE VERY FIRST DAYS OF ASIAN
IMMIGRATION TO THIS COUNTRY.
WHETHER THE YELLOW PERIL
RHETORIC WHETHER THE CHINESE
EXCLUSION ACT WEATHER IS THE
JAPANESE INTERNMENT CAMP- SO
MANY OTHERS WE CANNOT KEEP
REPEATING HISTORY IN THIS WAY.
AND YET WE RUN THAT RISK UNLESS
WE LEARN OUR HISTORY. WE LIKE
TO SAY THESE TYPES OF THINGS
NEVER WILL HAPPEN AGAIN BUT
THEY WILL UNLESS WE KEEP
REMINDING OURSELVES. AND OUR
NEXT GENERATIONS OF HISTORY. AS
I NOTED WITH THE API
LEGISLATIVE CAUCUS STANDING IN
SOLIDARITY NOT JUST WITH OTHER
API'S BUT WITH OTHER
HISTORICALLY MARGINALIZED
GROUPS IS SO IMPORTANT. AND I
ASK YOU ALL TO STAND WITH US
TODAY IN SUPPORTING THIS
RESOLUTION MEMBERS I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR I.
BOATS. THANK YOU MANAGER.

MADAM PRESIDENT I RISE A SHARE
THE MILITARY VETERANS AFFAIRS
COMMITTEE. IN SUPPORT OF S. R.
TEN WHICH DECLARES FEBRUARY
NINETEENTH IS A DAY OF
REMEMBRANCE REGARDING THE
EVENTS SURROUNDING THE
INCARCERATION OF AMERICANS OF
JACK JAPANESE ANCESTRY DURING
WORLD WAR TWO. IN PARTICULAR AS
A FELLOW VETERAN I WOULD LIKE
TO HIGHLIGHT THE FOUR FORTY
SECOND INFANTRY REGIMENT OF THE
UNITED STATES ARMY. NO TO ALL
OF US AS THE FOUR FOUR TWO THE
FIGHTING FOUR FOUR TWO. THE
FOUR FOUR TWO IS AN EFFORT TO
REGIMENT. WHO SERVED DURING
WORLD WAR TWO WITH HONOR AND
DIGNITY BEYOND THE CALL OF DUTY.
THE FOUR FORTY SECOND IS BEST
KNOWN FOR ITS HISTORY AS A
FIGHTING UNIT. COMPOSED OF
ALMOST ENTIRELY SECOND
GENERATION AMERICAN SOLDIERS OF
JAPANESE JAPANESE ANCESTRY WHO
ENLISTED. IN THE WAR. IN SPITE
OF THE INCARCERATION THAT WAS
HAPPENING BACK HOME WITH HER
FELLOW FAMILY MEMBERS WERE
KARCHER RATED. THE FOUR FORTY
SECOND BRAVELY FOUGHT IN THE
EUROPEAN THEATER IT WILL NEVER
BE FORGOTTEN. IN THE VETERANS
COMMUNITY WE HONOR THEM EVERY
SINGLE DAY. IN FACT. THE GO FOR
BROKE MONUMENT IN LITTLE TOKYO
DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES NEAR MY
DISTRICT. IN THE DISTRICT OF MY
COLLEAGUES TO MY RIGHT. AND I'D
LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT IT
COMMEMORATES THE JAPANESE
AMERICANS WHO SERVED THE UNITED
STATES ARMY DURING MORE WORK TO.
THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT HISTORY
NOT JUST FOR CALIFORNIA BUT THE
ENTIRE WORLD. FOR THESE REASONS
I RISE IN SUPPORT OF S. R. TEN

THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT I
RISE TODAY IN SUPPORT OF S. R.
TEN RECOGNIZING FEBRUARY
NINETEENTH TWENTY TWENTY ONE IS
A DAY OF REMEMBRANCE TO
INCREASE THE PUBLIC AWARENESS
OF THE EVENTS SURROUNDING THE
INCARCERATION OF AMERICANS OF
JAPANESE ANCESTRY. DURING WORLD
WAR TWO. FEBRUARY NINETEENTH
TWENTY TWENTY ONE MARKED THE
SEVENTY NINTH ANNIVERSARY THE
EXECUTIVE ORDER THAT AUTHORIZED
JAPANESE AMERICAN INTERNMENT
DURING WORLD WAR TWO. THIS
POLICY WAS A GRAVE INJUSTICE
AGAINST AMERICAN CITIZENS AND
RESIDENTS OF JAPANESE ANCESTRY
PRESIDENT GERALD FORD ISSUED A
PROCLAMATION WHICH TERMINATED
THIS POLICY AND IN NINETEEN
EIGHTY EIGHT PRESIDENT RONALD
REAGAN SIGNED THE FEDERAL CIVIL
LIBERTIES ACT INTO LAW. WHICH
DECLARED THAT THE EXECUTIVE
ORDER AUTHORIZING THE
INTERNMENT OF JAPANESE
AMERICANS WAS NOT JUSTIFIED DAY
MILITARY NECESSITY. THE CIVIL
LIBERTIES ACT OF NINETEEN
EIGHTY EIGHT HAD THREE CO
SPONSORS INCLUDING THEN SENATOR
PETE WILSON WHO LATER BECAME
THE THIRTY SIX GOVERNOR OF
CALIFORNIA. THAT STATED THAT
THE GOVERNMENT ACTIONS DURING
WORLD WAR TWO HAS BEEN BASED ON
QUOTE RACE PREJUDICE WAR
HYSTERIA AND A FAILURE OF
POLITICAL LEADERSHIP IN QUOTE
AS APPROVED AS OPPOSED TO
LEGITIMATE SECURITY REASONS.
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS
ISSUED A FORMAL APOLOGY TO
SURVIVORS WHO EXPERIENCED THE
DARKEST DAYS OF AMERICAN
HISTORY. SO TODAY WE GET MARK
THIS DAY OF REMEMBRANCE FOR
THOSE COUNTLESS AMERICAN
FAMILIES OF JAPANESE DESCENT
WHO ENTERS SUFFERING. OR OTHER
FAMILY MEMBERS WHO DID SUFFER.
AND IT'S GREAT THAT WE HAVE
THESE GOVERNMENT RESOLUTIONS
BUT IT TAKES MORE THAN THAT IT
TAKES. IT TAKES FAMILIES- AS A
YOUNG BOY I REMEMBER MY PARENTS
TAKING ME MY SISTER TO THE
MANZANAR INTERNMENT CAMP OFF
HIGHWAY THREE NINETY FIVE IN
INYO COUNTY. AND A GENERATION
LATER I TOOK MY CHILDREN
BECAUSE WE CAN NEVER FORGET
THESE TYPE ACCESS BECAUSE WE
DON'T HISTORY WILL REPEAT
ITSELF AGAIN. SO AGAIN I
PROBABLY STAND- WITH MY FRIEND
FROM SACRAMENTO AS AN AYE VOTE
FOR SR TEN. SENATOR BAKER. I
RISE IN SUPPORT OF THIS
RESOLUTION DECLARING FEBRUARY
NINETEENTH A DAY OF REMEMBRANCE
BUT MY COLLEAGUE WHO JUST SPOKE
I TOOK MY FAMILY LAST SUMMER TO
THE MINDS IN OUR CAMP HUNDRED
TWENTY THOUSAND OF OUR FELLOW
CITIZENS WERE IN TURN THERE IT
WAS A STARK REMINDER OF THIS
INJUSTICE AND GLAD WE HAVE THIS
RESOLUTION TO REMEMBER THIS. IS
MY CALLING IRVINE SAID. IF WE
DON'T REMEMBER THE HISTORY. WE
ARE DOOMED TO REPEAT IT AND WE
HEARD RECENTLY ALSO WAS
REFERENCED THE RECENT TAX-
ASSAULTS AND BATTERIES INSULTS
AGAINST MEMBERS OF OUR ASIAN
AMERICAN COMMUNITY I WAS AT A
RALLY THIS WEEKEND BUT WE STOOD
UP FOR ASIANS IN OUR COMMUNITY
AND I'M PROUD TO STAND SUPPORT
THIS RESOLUTION TODAY. THANK
YOU. SENATOR DRAWS A. THANK YOU
MADAM CHAIR I TO RISE IN
SUPPORT OF S. R. TEN IN
REMEMBRANCE OF THEIR
INCARCERATION OF JAPANESE
AMERICANS. AND ALSO BECAUSE-
SIMILAR ATTACKS HAVE BEEN WAGED
AGAINST OTHER GROUPS IN THIS
COUNTRY. IN THE NINETEEN
FORTIES THE SUIT. SUITORS WERE
ATTACKED IN LOS ANGELES WHERE
THOUSANDS WERE BEATEN UP THIS
IS AT THE SAME TIME BUT THE
SAME KIND OF RACIAL ATTACKS
WERE TAKING PLACE IN MOBILE
ALABAMA BEAUMONT TEXAS DETROIT
AND NEW YORK CITY. THEN THERE
WAS OPERATION LEAD BACK IN THE
NINETEEN FIFTIES. WHEN THEY
WERE MILITARY STYLE TACTICS
WERE USED TO DEPORT THOUSANDS
INCLUDING MEXICAN AMERICAN
CITIZENS. COLLEAGUES WHAT
MATTERS IS WHAT WE DO BOTH
INDIVIDUALLY. AS A LEGISLATURE
AND AS A SOCIETY THANK YOU VERY
MUCH. SENATOR BRADFORD.
PRESIDENT AS CHAIR OF THE
LEGISLATIVE BLACK CAUCUS I RISE
IN STRONG SUPPORT ABOUT
SARGSYAN TO REFLECT ON THE
BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN OF JAPANESE
HERITAGE THAT WERE INTERNED IN
THIS COUNTRY DURING WORLD WAR
TWO AS AN INDIVIDUAL WHO GREW
UP IN GUARDINO WHICH WAS
APPROVED FOR DONNELLY JAPANESE
COMMUNITY IN THE SIXTIES AND
SEVENTIES WHEN I WAS A KID I
HAVE PLENTY OF FRIENDS WHO HAD.
IT'S AND GRANDPARENTS WHO WERE
IN TURN NOT ONLY MANZANAR BUT
IN TULE LAKE TOO. MANY OF THEM
REFERRED TO AS NO ONE ELSE
THOSE INDIVIDUALS WHO REFUSE TO
SIGN A DECLARATION DECLARING
THEIR LOYALTY. TO THE UNITED
STATES EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE
BUT DENOUNCING THEIR JAPANESE
HERITAGE WHICH THEY REFUSED TO
DO. AND MANY AT TULE LAKE LAKE
WORKFORCE IN THE HEART. OF
WINTER THE STANDING IN THE COLD
AND SNOW IN THEIR UNDERWEAR AND
BE TORTURED REPEATEDLY TO GET
THEM TO SIGN A FORM WHICH THEY
REFUSED TO DO. YET AND STILL
MANY OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS ONE
OFF THE FIGHT. AS STATED IN
pWORLD WAR TWO. KNOWN AS THE
FOUR FOUR TWO THE GOAL FOR
BRINGING. SOME OF THE BRAVEST
MEN IN WORLD TWO WHO FOUGHT
FOR THIS COUNTRY DESPITE HAVING
MANY OF THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS.
INTERNED HERE IN THIS COUNTRY.
AND AS A MEMBER WHO'S BEEN
APPOINTED TO THE REPARATIONS
COMMITTEE. LOOKING AT THAT
WHICH WAS STOLEN FROM AFTER
AMERICANS WE ALSO NEED TO LOOK
AT WHAT WAS STOLEN FROM
JAPANESE AMERICANS BECAUSE OF
WE KNOW OUR HISTORY WE KNOW
BACK WHICH IS NOW PALACE
BIRDIES. WHICH PRIMARILY
JAPANESE FARMLAND IN THE EARLY
FORTIES IN VERY LITTLE OF THAT
WAS EVER RETURNED TO THEM AFTER
THEY RETURNED HOME. BUT THERE
WAS A SECTION THAT DID BELONG
TO THEM THAT WAS RETURNED AFTER
WORLD WAR TWO. AND I WAS LITTLE
TOKYO AND DOWN TO LOS ANGELES
AND THE REASON IT WAS RETURNED
TO ON BECAUSE IT WAS PROTECTED
BY. THE AMERICANS. AND THAT WAS
CAUGHT BROWNSVILLE BECAUSE
AFRICAN AMERICANS MOVED INTO
THOSE COMMUNITIES MOVED INTO
THOSE HOMES. MOVED INTO THOSE
BUSINESSES AND PROTECTED THOSE
BUSINESSES MAINTAIN THOSE
BUSINESSES AND HOMES AND RETURN
DON'T WITHOUT FUSS NOR MONTHS.
UPON THOSE INDIVIDUALS BEING
RETURNED SO IT'S BEEN A LONG
ALLIANCE BETWEEN. JAPANESE
AMERICANS AND AFRICAN AMERICANS
MY GRANDPARENTS LIVED AND TOKYO
IN JAPAN FOR NUMBER OF YEARS
AND MY GRANDMOTHER WAS FLUENT
IN JAPANESE AND SHE INSTILLED
IN ME AT EARLY AGE. THE LOCAL
STRONG TIES. AND CULTURAL-
AWARENESS OF JAPANESE ARE I
STAND STRONG TO OF US
UNDERSTANDING THE HISTORY BUT
MORE IMPORTANTLY NEVER
FORGETTING IT THANK YOU.
SENATOR RUBIO. THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT TODAY I RISE IN
SUPPORT OF ESTARá TEN AS-
SENATOR REPRESENTING A LARGE-
AREA OF API COMMUNITY I REALLY
WANT TO OFFER MY SUPPORT AS
WELL I THINK IT'S EXTREMELY
IMPORTANT THAT WE ALWAYS
REMEMBER OUR HISTORY AND REALLY
RECOGNIZE SOME OF THE AGREE
JUST MISTAKES WE'VE DONE AND
MADE ON BEHALF OF FOR THIS
COUNTRY AND SO I STAND IN
STRONG SUPPORT BECAUSE AS OUR
GREAT SENATOR FOR MOLLY SHARED-
MAKE. AMERICANS DEALT WITH A
LOT OF INJUSTICES IN THAT ERA
OUR FRIEND FROM GUARDINO JUST
STATE IT. OUR FRIENDS AFRICAN
AMERICAN FRIENDS HAVE DEALT
WITH SUCH INJUSTICES AND I
THINK IT'S TIME WE STAND
TOGETHER IN SOLIDARITY AND
OFFER ARC. FOR THIS COUNTRY AND
THEY WERE TREATED SO UNFAIRLY
AND THEIR FAMILIES WERE TREATED
SO UNJUSTLY I DO HAVE-
INTERNMENT CAMP. THAT WAS IN MY
DISTRICT AND SO THAT'S ALWAYS A
REMINDER FOR ME. TO ALWAYS
REMEMBER NEVER REPEAT THOSE
MISTAKES AND COLLECTIVELY I
THINK WE NEED TO SAY THANK YOU
TO JAPANESE AMERICANS. FOR
EVERYTHING THAT THEY HAVE DONE
TO CONTRIBUTE TO THIS COUNTRY
THANK YOU. SENATOR EGGMAN.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH I RISE
TODAY ON BEHALF OF THE L. G.
CAUCUS BUT TO ALSO SPEAK ON
THAT S. R. TEN- WE ARE OLD
MEANING MAKING CREATURES WHO
FULL FORM OUR LIVES AROUND
STORIES OF OUR LIVES WHEN I WAS
A SOCIAL WORKER DOING HOSPICE
WORK- IN THE IN THE STOCK
INTERLOCUTOR THERE'S A LOT OF
JAPANESE FAMILIES WHO HAD
SETTLED THERE AND- AND SPENT
TIME IN CAMPS AND I WAS ALWAYS
AMAZED WHEN I WOULD GO INTO A
JAPANESE HOME. AND THE PICTURE
OF THE CAMPS WOULD BE CENTERED
UP ON THE WALL AND THAT WAS
PART OF THE TOUR OF THE HOUSE
IT WOULD TAKE ME TO SEE THE
PICTURE OF THE CAMPS. AND WOOD
NO BETTER. BUT WITH THE WITH
THE THIS IS A PART OF OUR LIFE.
THAT WE WANT TO SHARE AND THEN
THE STRENGTH THE FAMILY. STILL
TOGETHER THEN TOWARD THE END OF
SOMEONE'S LIFE. CARING FOR
SOMEONE. WHEN I WAS IN. IN IN
IN COLLEGE IT WAS AT THE
BEGINNING OF THE AIDS EPIDEMIC
AND I REMEMBER DISTINCTLY. IN
COLLEGE CLASSES IS PEOPLE
TALKING ABOUT INTERNMENT CAMPS.
PLACES THAT WE WOULD PUT PEOPLE
TO KEEP US SAFE WHICH IS THE
SAME THING WE DID. DURING THE
WAR WE PUT JAPANESE PEOPLE
AWAY. TO KEEP US SAFE BECAUSE
WE ARE AFRAID. I THINK WE NEED
TO PUSH BACK THEN WE CERTAINLY
SHOULD HAVE PUSHED BACK ON THE
HIV AIDS CRISIS AND WE DID- BUT
WE NEED TO CONTINUE TO BE
VIGILANT TO THESE KIND OF
THINGS THESE ARE MESSAGES WE
DON'T WANT ANYBODY ELSE. WITH
PICTURES OF CAMPS ON THEIR ON
THEIR LIVING ROOM WALLS. THAT
THEY ORGANIZE A STORY OF THEIR
LIVES AROUND THAT WE DON'T WANT
PEOPLE TO HAVE TO BE. THAT
RESILIENT TO RISE ABOVE. THE
HATRED OF YOUR VERY COUNTRY. WE
DON'T KNOW A LOT ABOUT LGBT
PEOPLE IN THE CAMPS DURING THAT
TIME WE DO KNOW ABOUT. JIRO A
NEW MONTH. BECAUSE YOU CAN
IMAGINE TO BE IN A CLOSET IN A
CAMP WAS REALLY DIFFICULT. SO
WE CAN JUST IMAGINE THE KIND
THE COMPOUNDING. OF OPPRESSION
THAT IT CAN OCCUR AT THIS TIME
SO. I RISE ON BEHALF OF S. R.
TEN AND ASKED US ALL TO STAND
IN SOLIDARITY THAT WE WILL
NEVER FORGET AND WE WILL NEVER
REPEAT THE MISTAKES. OF THE
PAST THANK YOU MEMBERS. SENATOR
PAN. THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT
I FIRST OF ALL I THINK ALL OF
MY- COLLEAGUES FOR SPEAKING IN
SUPPORT OF THIS R. TEN AND- FOR
THE DAY OF REMEMBRANCE-

IMPORTANT BUT NINE US AND WE
ALSO NEED TO RESOLVE TO NOT
ALLOW THESE THINGS TO HAPPEN
AGAIN WE CANNOT. CHANGE HISTORY.
BUT WE CAN CHANGE THE FUTURE.
WHAT THAT HIRED AN AYE VOTE ON
S. R. TEN THANK YOU. MEMBERS IF
THERE IS NO OBJECTION THIS ITEM
IS ELIGIBLE FOR UNANIMOUS ROLL
CALL. SEEING NO OBJECTION I
THIRTY FIVE KNOWS ZERO THE
MEASURE THE- RESOLUTION PASSES.
MEMBERS ARE GOING TO MOVE ON TO
ITEM NUMBER TWELVE SENATOR
ATKINS. MADAM SECRETARY PLEASE
READ SENATE BILL SEVEN BY
SENATOR ATKINS AN ACTUAL
RELATING TO ENVIRONMENTAL
QUALITY AND OCCURRING THE
URGENCY THERE OF TO TAKE EFFECT
IMMEDIATELY MADAM PRETEND THE
FLOOR IS YOURS THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT COLLEAGUES I RISE TO
PRESENT SB SEVEN WHICH EXTENDS
A SUNSET OF EXISTING CALIFORNIA
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT OR
SEEK WHAT STREAMLINING
PROVISIONS. AND ENABLE SMALL
SCALE HOUSING PROJECTS TO
BENEFIT FROM THE STREAMLINING
AS WELL. IT'S BEEN A YEAR SINCE
THE BEGINNING OF THE PANDEMIC
AND WHILE WE HAVE MANY
IMPORTANT ISSUES TO TACKLE
DIRECTLY RELATED TO MITIGATING
THE EFFECTS OF THE PANDEMIC. WE
CANNOT LOSE FOCUS ON OTHER
EQUALLY IMPORTANT POLICY ISSUES
SUCH AS HOUSING PRODUCTION. I
MADE A PLEDGE ON THIS FLOOR
WELL OVER A YEAR AGO THAT THE
SENATE WILL FOCUS ON HOUSING
PRODUCTION. WE MADE GOOD ON
THAT PLEDGE AND WE PUT FORTH A
COMPREHENSIVE PACKAGE OF BILLS
TO INCENTIVIZE AN INCREASE
HOUSING PRODUCTION AND OUR
STATE. WELL WE WERE NOT
COMPLETELY SUCCESSFUL AND
GETTING THESE BILLS ACROSS THE
FINISH LINE WE WERE CLOSE. BY
ALONG WITH A GROUP OF LEAD
SENATORS ON HOUSING. SENATORS
MCGUIRE CABALLERO DRAW SO
GONZALEZ ROTH RUBIO CORTESE AND
SKINNER. WILL CONTINUE TO FIGHT
ON THESE BILLS. TO MAKE THEM
LAW AND I PARTICULARLY WANT TO
EXTEND MY APPRECIATION. TO
SENATOR MCGUIRE FOR- PRESENTING
THIS BILL IN- EQ COMMITTEE AND
APPROPRIATIONS. BUT OUR WORK
CONTINUES AND S. B. SEVEN AS
PART OF THE WORK DONE ON THE
HOUSING PRODUCTION PACKAGE OF
BILLS TO ADDRESS THE CRITICAL
NEED FOR HOUSING SUPPLY. IN OUR
STATE. IN TWENTY ELEVEN THE
LEGISLATURE PASSED AND THE
GOVERNOR SIGNED AB NINE HUNDRED
WHICH IS STABILISED A NEW
PROCESS UNDER SECRETIVE
STREAMLINED ADMINISTRATIVE
RECORD PAPERWORK. AN EXPEDITED
LEGAL CHALLENGES FOR LARGE
MULTI BENEFIT HOUSING. CLEAN
ENERGY AND MANUFACTURING
PROJECTS THAT HAVE A CAPITAL
INVESTMENT OF OVER ONE HUNDRED
MILLION DOLLARS. AB NINE
HUNDRED SUNSET ON JANUARY FIRST
TWENTY TWENTY ONE. I HAD A BILL
LAST YEAR TO EXTEND THE SUNSET
AND THE BILL PASSED BOTH THE
SENATE AND THE ASSEMBLY WITH
LARGE MAJORITY VOTES. BUT WAS
UNABLE TO GET TO THE SENATE
FLOOR LAST YEAR DUE TO THE END
OF SESSION TIME CONSTRAINTS. SB
SEVEN EXTENDS AB NINE HUNDRED
UNTIL TWENTY TWENTY SIX AND
EXPANDED SO THAT IT WOULD APPLY
TO MUCH SMALLER HOUSING
PROJECTS AND THIS IS SO THAT
ALL PARTS OF CALIFORNIA. HAVE
ACCESS TO THE BENEFITS OF THIS
TOOL NOT JUST LARGE CITIES BUT
RULE COMMUNITIES ALSO. WERE
CURRENT AB NINE HUNDRED LAW NOW
SAYS IT ONLY- BUT THAT ONLY
PROJECTS OF A HUNDRED MILLION
OR GREATER OR ELIGIBLE SB SEVEN
LOWERS THAT THRESHOLD TO
FIFTEEN MILLION DOLLARS OF
SMALLER HOUSING PROJECTS
QUALIFY. LIKEWISE THE BILL ALSO
REQUIRES THAT THE HOUSING
PROJECTS AVE AT LEAST 50%
AFFORDABLE HOUSING. THE HIGHEST
PERCENTAGE REQUIRED IN STATE
LAW. AND TO DATE AB NINE
HUNDRED HAS RESULTED IN AT
LEAST FOURTEEN SEPARATE MEGA
PROJECTS REPRESENTING OVER TWO
BILLION DOLLARS OF INVESTMENTS
IN OUR STATE. ACCORDING TO
INFORMATION FROM THE GOVERNOR'S
OFFICE OF PLANNING RESEARCH AND
THE SENATE OFFICE OF RESEARCH
THESE PROJECTS HAVE PROVIDED
OVER TEN THOUSAND NEW HOUSING
UNITS. AND CREATED THOUSANDS OF
NEW HIGH WAGE CONSTRUCTION AND
PERMANENT JOBS. SINCE THE AB
NINE HUNDRED PROGRAM SUNSET ON
JANUARY FIRST WE HAVE TAKEN
AMENDMENTS TO ENSURE EXISTING
PROGRAMS THAT WERE ALREADY IN
THE PIPELINE FOR APPROVAL DO
NOT HAVE TO BEGIN THAT APPROVAL
PROCESS AGAIN. SB SEVEN IS AN
IMPORTANT TOOL IN GENERATING
HOUSING PRODUCTION IN THE STATE
AS WELL AS ENSURING COMMUNITIES
LARGE AND SMALL. BENEFIT FROM
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT INCLUDING
GENERATING QUALITY HIGH PAYING
JOBS. BY USING PROPERLY SKILLED
AND TRAINED WORKERS. SB SEVEN
IS A KEY PART IN FULFILLING
THIS PLEDGE TO SPUR HOUSING
PRODUCTION CALIFORNIA IT'S
SUPPORTED BY A BROAD RANGE OF
STAKEHOLDERS. I WOULD
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR AYE
VOTE. SENATOR BURGESS. THANK
YOU MADAM PRESIDENT. I WANT TO
INTRODUCING THIS MATTER- I
THINK WE KNOW. OUR HOUSING
SHORTAGES ARE NOT GOING TO GO
AWAY- AND THE THICKENING OF
GOVERNMENT ACTUALLY SON
TELEVISION PROGRAM RECENTLY
THAT. HELP EXPLAIN THIS
CONCEPT- AND IT MADE A LOT OF
SENSE TO ME. IS THAT WE HAVE
CREATED A NUMBER OF SYSTEMS IN
GOVERNMENT WHETHER THEY BE
CHECKS AND BALANCES ARE
OVERSIGHTS. FOR JUST YOUR
CREDIT PROCESS SEES THAT
ENCUMBER INCREASE CHALLENGES
FOR US TO DEAL WITH ARM MOST
IMMEDIATE NEEDS. NOWHERE IS
THIS MORE SIGNIFICANT AND
GLARING AS A SEQUEL. NOW I HAVE
INTRODUCED BILLS- MY FIRST YEAR
REGARDING C. ESPECIALLY TO PLAY
INSTEAD TO HOUSING AND
STREAMLINING. BUT I GOTTA SAY
EVEN THOUGH WE ARE. WE'RE
DEALING WITH- THE PANDEMIC AND
IT WILL NO DOUBT. TAKE ALL OF
THIS LEGISLATIVE CYCLE. I AM
HOPEFUL THAT WE HAVE THE
COURAGE. TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE.
ON ITS MERITS IN THE YEAR
TWENTY TWO. BECAUSE I SUPPORT
THIS MEASURE I'M GONNA VOTE FOR
TODAY. BUT THE FACT THAT WE ARE
STREAMLINING SEQUEL FOR
PRIORITY PROJECTS UNDERLIES THE
FACT THAT SEQUEL IS NOT WORKING
THE WAY IT WAS INTENDED. AND I
THINK IT WE HAD OF THE BODY WE
HAVE TO HAVE THE COURAGE TO
TACKLE THIS ISSUE. DESPITE THE
SPECIAL INTERESTS IN THE
PREVAILING POLITICAL WINDS OF
THE TIME. WE CAN'T SIMPLY
SIDELINED SPECIAL PROJECTS AND
CERTAIN NEEDS- TO DIVERT AROUND
THIS CUMBERSOME PROCESS WHICH
CLEARLY IS NOT DELIVERING WHAT
WE NEED. ALL WITH THAT I WILL
BE SUPPORTING THIS BECAUSE IT
IS ESSENTIAL THAT WE MOVE
FORWARD ON THESE THINGS. BUT
IT'S EVEN MORE ESSENTIAL- THAT
WE SOLVE OUR LONG TERM PROBLEMS
OF HOUSING IN SICK WHAT NEEDS
TO BE A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF
THAT DISCUSSION. SENATOR RUBIO.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT AND
MEMBERS OF THE SENATE I STAND
AS A PRODUCT- ALTER IN STRONG
SUPPORT OF THIS MEASURE. I LIKE
TO THINK THE PRO TEM FIRST
READING THE EFFORTS AND GIVING
ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE AT THE
TABLE TO HELP. CRAFT THIS BILL
