BILL WHICH IS I NUMBER ONE SB
SIXTY FIVE BY SKI WELCOME
CENTER SKINNER- YOU YOU MAY
BEGIN THANK YOU SO MUCH- MR
CHAIRMAN MEMBERS ARE VERY
PLEASED TO PRESENT SB SIXTY
FIVE WHICH IS CALIFORNIA'S MOM
TO THIS BILL- YOU MAY HAVE SEEN
SOME OF THE PRESS. ABOUT THE
CONGRESSIONAL BILL CALLED THE
MOMENT OF THIS ACT WHICH A
NUMBER OF CONGRESS MEMBERS HAVE
INTRODUCED. TO ADDRESS THE FACT
THAT. THE INFANT AND MATERNAL
MORTALITY RATE IS HIGHER IN.
THE US THEN ALL G. EIGHT
COUNTRIES SEVEN YOU KNOW U. S.
IS ONE OF THE G. COUNTRIES THAT
MEANS WE ARE THE HIGHEST. IN
TERMS OF- ECONOMIC OUTPUT OF
ANY COUNTRIES. AND SUPPOSEDLY
EDUCATIONAL LEVELS AND OTHER
THINGS. AND ALL OF THOSE
COUNTRIES HAVE BETTER OUTCOMES
IN BIRTHING. AND IN INFANCY.
THEN THE UNITED STATES. MOST OF
THESE DEATHS ARE PREVENTABLE
NOW ADDITIONALLY. THESE NUMBERS
ARE SKEWED EVEN FURTHER WHEN
YOU LOOK ACT PREGNANT. MOTHERS
OF COLOR AN INFERENCE OF COLOR
ESPECIALLY BLACK BLACK MOTHERS
ARE THREE TO FOUR TIMES MORE
LIKELY TO DIE DUE TO PREGNANCY
OR CHILDBIRTH CAUSES. THAN
WHITE MOTHERS DAY ON TO BLACK
BABIES ARE TWO TIMES MORE
LIKELY TO DIE IN INFANCY THESE
STATS ARE INDEPENDENT OF A
BLACK MOTHERS INCOME OR
EDUCATION LEVELS AND WE CAN
TURN TO SERENA WILLIAMS AND
BEYONCE SAY AS TWO GREAT
EXAMPLES OF THIS. AND WHAT THE
RESEARCH HAS INDICATED IS THAT
THERE ARE VARIOUS RACIAL.
SYSTEMATIC RACIAL FACTORS IN
SOCIAL ECONOMIC FACTORS THAT
CONTRIBUTE TO DISPARITIES IN
HEALTH OUTCOMES FOR PEOPLE OF
COLOR. SB SIXTY FIVE
SPECIFICALLY BUILDS ON
LEGISLATION THAT SENATOR
MITCHELL AND- INTRODUCING WE
PASSED AND SIGNED INTO LAW THAT
ESTABLISHED AN IMPLICIT BIAS
PROGRAM FOR PERINATAL CARE
PROVIDERS IN SB SIXTY FIVE
TAKES IT A LITTLE FURTHER. BY
ESTABLISHING AND CODIFYING THE
PREGNANCY MORTALITY REVIEW
BOARD. INCLUDING REQUIREMENTS
ON THE EXPERTISE OF THE BOARD%
MEMBERS. SB SIXTY FIVE ALSO
ALLOWS. A BIRTHING PEOPLE TO
STAY ON MEDICAID UP TO A YEAR
AFTER BIRTH AND IT EXTENDS CAL
WORKS BENEFITS TO LOW INCOME
PREGNANT WITH HIGHER MONTHLY
STEINMAN STIPENDS AND IT MAKES
WHAT IS WE UNDERSTAND FROM THE
TERM CAL WORKS WE KNOW THAT
PART OF THE REQUIREMENT IS A
WORK REQUIREMENT. BUT IT MAKES
THE WORKING OPTIONAL WHILE
PREGNANT FINALLY IT- IT HAS
MEDIC CAL EXPANDING WHAT
SERVICES IT WOULD COVER
INCLUDING DO LIKE HERE. BECAUSE
WE- HAVE IN THE RESEARCH THAT
THE PROVISION OF DOULAS TO A
PREGNANT PERSON IS GREATLY
ENHANCES THEIR- BOTH THE
INFANT. BLESSED INFANT
MORTALITY IN BETTER OUTCOMES
FOR THE PREGNANT PERSON. AND IT
PROVIDES FUNDING TO BUILD THE
WORK FORCE AMONG MIDWIFE'S- IN
WITHOUT I WANT TO HAVE MY
WITNESSES IN SUPPORT- I HAVE.

CENTER RUBIO. YES THANK YOU-
THINK IT CHAIR AND ALSO AND I
THINK THAT THE AUTHOR OF THIS
BILL I THINK THIS IS BEEN. A
SYSTEMATIC PROBLEM AND IT'S
SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO
ADDRESS I THINK THIS BILL IS
VERY COMPREHENSIVE AND- IT
TACKLES ALL THE ISSUES THAT
MUST BE. SOLVED AND IT
CONTINUES TO DISPROPORTIONATELY
AFFECT WOMEN OF COLOR. CHILDREN
OF COLOR AND I THINK THAT THIS
IS SUCH AN- EASY. SOLVABLE
PROBLEM IF WE JUST INVEST IT IN
AND THESE ISSUES AND SO ARE
ALSO ON A BEACON. ADDED AS A CO
AUTHOR AND I URGE EVERYONE. TO
SUPPORT IT. IN PARTICULAR
BECAUSE IT REALLY DOES HELP IN
EXPANDING THE RESEARCH AND
GATHERING INFORMATION WE NEED.
IT ALSO EXPANDS THE MEDICAL
CARE WORKFORCE IN AN IMPROVED
ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE. AND FOR
ALL THESE REASONS I ALSO URGE
AN EYEFUL THANK YOU. THANK YOU
SENATOR RUBIO SIR LEYVA. THANK
YOU MISTER CHAIRMAN I THINK-
CENTER SKINNER FOR BRINGING

WHENEVER APPROPRIATE THANK YOU.
THANK YOU ANY OTHER QUESTIONS
OR COMMENTS FROM MEMBERS. OKAY
SAYING NONE CENTER SKINNER- I.
TWO ONE THANK YOU FOR READING
THIS BILL FORD- ADDRESSES A LOT
OF VERY IMPORTANT ISSUES- WE-
WE SHOULD BE PROUD IN
CALIFORNIA ACTUALLY THAT OUR
MATERNAL MORTALITY RATE IS
LOWER THAN MOST OTHER STATES-
BUT WE CAN DO EVEN BETTER. AND
SO WE STILL HAVE TO ADDRESS-
THE CONTINUING DISPARITIES IN
OUTCOMES- HAT WE SEE EVEN HERE
IN CALIFORNIA- AND- THIS BILL
IS AN IMPORTANT STEP FORWARD TO
THAT. SO AGAIN I'LL BE
SUPPORTING THE BILL WOULD YOU
LIKE TO CLOSE. THANKS SO MUCH.
MISTER CHAIRMAN AND ALSO
MEMBERS FOR COMMENTS. SO WHILE
THE DATA POINTS TO DISPARITIES
AS WE'VE DISCUSSED FOR UN ALT
ED. MOTHER'S AFRAID OF COLOR
AND ALSO THEIR BABIES. SB SIXTY
FIVE THE BENEFITS IN THAT WILL
SUPPORT ALL PREGNANCIES AND
BIRTHS IN CALIFORNIA BUT IT
WOULD ALSO GIVE US BETTER
INFORMATION AS WAS POINTED OUT
BY- SENATOR RUBIO. TO
UNDERSTAND WHY WE HAVE THESE
DISCIPLINE DISPARITIES. AND SO
THE DATA COLLECTIONS ARE VERY
IMPORTANT. SO IT WILL CLOSE
HOPEFULLY SOME OF THE RACIAL
DISPARITIES THAT EXIST. PREVENT
PREVENTABLE DEATHS IN PRETERM
BIRTHS WITH THAT I ASK FOR YOUR
VOTE OKAY. THANKS VERY MUCH

AS TEACHERS AND WE'RE A LOT OF
THINGS FALL ON OUR SHOULDERS
YOU KNOW THEY WERE EXPECTED TO
BE THERAPISTS NURSES SOCIAL
WORKERS EVERYTHING THAT WE ARE
NOT QUALIFIED TO DO. AND I
THINK THAT- SOME PEOPLE ASSUME
THAT IT'S GOING TO BE A
SEAMLESS TRANSITION FOR
CHILDREN COMING OUT OF COBIT
ISOLATION INTO OUR SCHOOL
SYSTEMS BUT YESTERDAY I HEARD A
STORY FROM ONE OF THE STUDENTS
AND THAT IS THAT THIS LITTLE
GIRL HAD BEEN PLAYING BY
HERSELF OUT IN THE PLAYGROUND
EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE BACK EVEN
THOUGH OTHER THEIR PEERS ARE
BACK. BUT SHE STILL HAS THE
TRAUMA OF FEELING THAT IF SHE
PLAYS WITH KIDS TEXAS KIDS THAT
HER LIFE IS IN DANGER SO THAT
REALLY OPENED MY EYES AS TO HOW
DEEP ROOTED THE TRAUMA IS GOING
TO BE EVEN AFTER THEY COME BACK
AND WE ASSUME THAT IT'S QUOTE
UNQUOTE NORMAL BUT THEY'RE
STILL DEALING WITH THAT FEAR
THAT FOR THE LAST YEAR WE'VE
INSTILLED IN THEM ABOUT SOCIAL
ISOLATION AND DISTANCE SCENE

CHAIRMAN AND COLLEAGUES- AND I
WANT TO BEGIN BY THANKING- THE
CHAIR AND- THE COMMITTEE FOR
WORKING WITH US MEANS BILL. AND
HAPPY TO ACCEPT THE TECHNICAL
AMENDMENTS SUGGESTED ON PAGE
SIX OF ANALYSIS. ARE CALLING
SENATE BILL FIVE NINETEEN.
DECRIMINALIZE THE POSSESSION
AND PERSONAL USE. VARIOUS.
PSYCHEDELIC SUBSTANCES. INSIDE
BEEN- SERVICEMEN INDIA MAY LST
IN GMC MASKELYNE AND I'VE
GAINED A LIMITED TO PEOPLE AGES
TWENTY ONE AND OLDER. HI IN
ADDITION TO ENCOURAGE CITY FOR
USE AND REDUCE HARM THE BILL
ALSO DECRIMINALIZE IS. DRUG
TESTING KITS AND PERMITS THE
POSSESSION OF PARAPHERNALIA TO
USE THE PSYCHEDELIC SUBSTANCES
SB FIVE NINETEEN WILL ALSO
CONVENE AN EXPERT WORKING GROUP
UNDER THE DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC
HEALTH- TASKED WITH DEVELOPING
RECOMMENDATIONS. FOR THE
LEGISLATURE FOR POTENTIAL
FUTURE REGULATION REGULATION OF
LEGAL ACCESS TO THESE
SUBSTANCES IN A MANNER THAT
CITY RESPONSIBLE AND EQUITABLE.
THIS LEGISLATION IS COSPONSORED
BY TWO ORGANIZATIONS THAT. HELP
AND WORK WITH COMBAT VETERANS.
TO HELP THEM ACCESS SIGNALED
TREATMENT. FOR PTSD DEPRESSION
AND OTHER MENTAL HEALTH
CONDITIONS WHERE THEY HAVE NOT
BEEN ABLE TO ACHIEVE SUCCESS.
THROUGH THE VA WITH OTHER
TREATMENTS. OUR COLORS THIS
LEGISLATION- IS ONE STEP MOVING
AWAY FROM THE FAILED WAR ON
DRUGS. THE WAR ON DRUGS HAS
BEEN ABJECT FAILURE. BECAUSE IT
IS BASED ON THE FALSE BELIEF
THE FALSE NOTION THAT
CRIMINALIZING PEOPLE ARRESTING-
INCARCERATING THEM FOR
POSSESSING FOR USING DRUGS-
WILL SOMEHOW DETER USE THAT
IMPROVE PUBLIC SAFETY IT HAS
DONE NEITHER I AND SAID WE HAVE
SPEND TRILLIONS IN THE LAST
HALF CENTURY ON THE WAR ON
DRUGS. MORE PEOPLE ARE USING
DRUGS NOW- THERE'S MORE
ADDICTION THERE ARE MORE-
OVERDOSES SOME TALKING ABOUT
DRUGS AND GENERALLY NOT.
PSYCHEDELICS AND- BUT WE HAVE
BUSTED TAXPAYER DOLLARS AND WE
NEED TO MOVE TOWARDS A MORE
HEALTH BASED APPROACH I AM
BRINGING SB FIVE NINETEEN
BEFORE YOU TODAY COLLEAGUES
BECAUSE WE NEED TO CHANGE OUR
RESPONSE TO SUBSTANCE USE AND
BECAUSE THESE PSYCHEDELIC
SUBSTANCES ARE ALREADY BEING
USED TODAY BY CALIFORNIANS FOR
THEIR HEALING POTENTIAL- AND
MICHAEL AND OTHERWISE THEY'RE
BEING USED TODAY I THINK
SOMETIMES PEOPLE HEAR ABOUT
DECRIMINALIZATION AND THEY
THINK IT'S GOING TO SOMEHOW
BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE TO USE
STRUCTURE INCREASE DRUG USE OR
MAKE DRUGS MORE ATTRACTIVE-
THAT IS NOT TRUE- THERE'S NO
EVIDENCE. FOR THAT- WE KNOW
THAT BANNING AND CRIMINALIZING
AND TAKING A CARCERAL APPROACH
TO DRUGS PEOPLE STILL USE THAT
THEY STILL USE IT A LOT I SAW
THE QUESTION BEFORE US TODAY.
WHATEVER ONE'S VIEWS. AB THIS
ABOUT SITE- THIS ABOUT DRUGS.
THE QUESTION BEFORE US TODAY IT
SHOULD BE CONTINUED TO ARREST
AND INCARCERATE PEOPLE FOR
POSSESSING AND USING THESE
DRUGS- WHATEVER ONE THINKS OF A
PARTICULAR SUBSTANTIVE IF YOU
LIKE IT OR DON'T LIKE IT OR- OR
THINK IT'S A PROBLEM OR NOT A
PROBLEM. THAT'S THE QUESTION
SHOULD WE BE ARRESTING AND
INCARCERATING PEOPLE FOR HAVING
FOR POSSESSING DRUGS THIS BILL
DOES NOT DECRIMINALIZE SELLING.
IT'S ABOUT POSSESSION AND USE.
AND SO IT'S TIME TO BRING THIS
YEAR'S INTO THE LIGHT SO WE CAN
HAVE A MORE SENSIBLE
CONVERSATION ABOUT C. FOR USE.
OF THE PSYCHEDELICS AND DISPEL
MYTHS. ABOUT DECRIMINALIZATION
IN RECENT YEARS AND WE AND
CALIFORNIA IS NOT- WE'RE NOT
THE FIRST YEAR. IN RECENT YEARS
VARIOUS LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
HAVING KNOWLEDGE THAT THE CREW
THAT CRIMINALIZATION- DOES NOT
WORK IN MANY CITIES INCLUDING
SANTA CRUZ IN OAKLAND- AS WELL
AS WASHINGTON DC IN SOMERVILLE
MASSACHUSETTS. OF ALL MOVE
TOWARDS DECRIMINALIZATION OF
PSYCHEDELICS THIS PAST NOVEMBER
OREGON VOTERS PASSED TWO BALLOT
MEASURES WIND DECRIMINALIZED
POSSESSION OF A HUGE SWATH OF
DRUGS GOING WELL WELL WELL
BEYOND PSYCHEDELICS. AND THEN A
SEPARATE MEASURE AUTHORIZED A
MOVE TOWARDS- PSILOCYBIN
ASSISTED THERAPY PROGRAM OVER
THE NEXT TWO YEARS. OTHER
COUNTRIES LIKE PORTUGAL HAVE
ALSO SUCCESSFULLY
DECRIMINALIZED THE POSSESSION
AND PERSONAL USE OF ALL
CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES. WHILE
OPPONENTS TO DECRIMINALIZATION
AT THE TIME ARGUED THAT
PORTUGAL'S APPROACH WOULD BE
DETRIMENTAL PUBLIC HEALTH DRUG
OVERDOSES IN H. I. R. THE WILL
BE DETRIMENTAL TO PUBLIC
HEALTH. WHAT IS ACTUALLY
HAPPENS IS A DRUG OVERDOSES HIV
RATES HAVE PLUMMETED SINCE
PORTUGAL IMPLEMENTED THAT
POLICY. IN TWO THOUSAND ONE.
HUNDRED ADDITION THERE'S BEEN
NO INDICATION OF INCREASED USE
AMONG YOUNG PEOPLE WHAT IS OUR
POPULATIONS OF THE ARGUMENTS
FOR HEARING FROM LAW
ENFORCEMENT IN THIS BILL. HAVE
BEEN DISPROVEN. OVER AND OVER
AGAIN. HI THIS BILL REFER YOU
AS I MENTIONED IS A FROM TO DO.
ALSO TO BE CLEAR MY PERSONAL
VIEW IS WE NEED TO MOVE IN THAT
DIRECTION TOWARDS BROADER DRUG
DECRIMINALIZATION BUT THAT IS
pBILL. IS ONE STOP. ON BROWN
COMMUNITIES ARE ALREADY USING
THESE SUBSTANCES TO HEAL OUR
VETERANS- TO TREAT PEOPLE
SUFFERING FROM TRAUMA AND HAVE
BEEN USED AS A SACRAMENT AND
SPIRITUAL OR RELIGIOUS
PRACTICES. FOR CENTURIES
INCLUDING IN THIS COUNTRY AMONG
NATIVE AMERICAN COMMUNITIES
LET'S BRING THIS ACTIVITY OUT
OF THE SHADOWS AND ENSURE WE
ARE HELPING ENCOURAGE SAFER
USE. I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN
AYE VOTE- WITH ME. BY PHONE TO

OF THE CONGRESS OF RACIAL
EQUALITY. AS A CHILD OF A

REPRESENTATIVE OF THE COMMUNITY
THE EXPERIENCE IS PERHAPS THE
LARGEST. IN CONSERVATION
DISPARITIES IN OUR COUNTRY I
URGE THE COMMITTEE TO VOTE NO
ON SB FIVE NINETEEN THIRTY FIVE
NINETEEN ALLOWS ACCESS INTO
SUCH A SHARING OF DRUGS. THAT
ARE NOT YET REGULATED. AND WILL
NOT BE REGULATED FOR QUITE SOME
TIME IF THIS BILL PASSES
UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES. WILL
BE UTILIZED AS GUINEA PIGS IN
EFFORT TO OBTAIN DATA OVER A
PERIOD OF YEARS WELL THE
COMMUNITY SUFFERS AT THE END OF
A BILL THAT HAVE NEGLECTED TO
ADDRESS. THE UNDERLYING CAUSES
OF ADDICTION AND DRUG USE. THE
BILL IS COMPLETELY AFTER THE
TREATMENT OPTIONS FOR ADDICTS
PREVENTION EDUCATION PRODUCTION
REACHING USERS AS WELL AS
HEALTH AND SOCIAL RESOURCES FOR
THE COMMUNITY TO EXPERIENCE THE
MOST SHAUNA FROM THIS BILL.
THAT IS LOW INCOME. COMMUNITIES
AND COMMUNITIES OF COLOR. ELL
THE INTO OF THE BILL GREAT IT
FALLS FLAT AS A SLOT. ONE HARM
AN ATTEMPT TO REMEDY. FOR
SEVERAL OTHER HARMS THAT HAVE
DEVELOPED. FIFTY DOLLARS FOR
THE SOCIAL SHARING OF
SUBSTANCES THAT CAN BE
ESPECIALLY HARMFUL TO BILLS.
FOR ADDICTION. SUGGESTION WAS
IN ITSELF. AS A GATEWAY TO MORE
ADULT INDUCTION RACING USERS.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO CONSIDER
BECAUSE BOTH IN THE COMMUNITIES
AND IN POVERTY BOTH OF LOWER
EDUCATION SUBSETS ARE THOSE
MORE LIKELY TO EXPERIENCE. TO
BE AS AN ADDICTION BY ALLOWING
THE PERPETUATION OF DRUG USE IN
THESE COMMUNITIES WE HINDER THE
NEXT GENERATION COMING UP FROM
BEING ABLE TO OVERCOME THE
OBSTACLES THEY ARE EXPERIENCING
AT THIS PRESENT MOMENT. TO
REJECT THE UNDERLYING ISSUE
EVERY COUPLE OF REGARDLESS OF
THE CITIES AND PROVIDE
TREATMENT OPTIONS TO
COMMUNITIES IN NEED THIS BILL

ISTER CHAIR WE HAVE NO FURTHER
COMMENT AT THIS TIME OKAY THANK
YOU LET'S NOW MOVE TO COMMITTEE
MEMBERS- THE QUESTIONS OR
COMMENTS FROM COMMITTEE MEMBERS
YES CENTER MELENDEZ. THANK YOU
MR CHAIRMAN- SO FIRST I WANT TO
START OFF BY THANKING FOR THE
ON THE AUTHOR FOR TAKING AN
INTEREST IN FINDING ALTERNATIVE-
METHODS TO TREAT SOME OF THESE
AILMENTS THAT WE HAVE YET TO BE
ABLE TO CONQUER- BUT I. I HAVE
SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT SOME OF
THE DRUGS THAT YOU'RE LOOKING
TO DECRIMINALIZE SPECIFICALLY-
THE DRUG KADAM MEANS- CAN MEAN
IS ONE OF THE THREE MAJOR.
DRUGS USED AS A DATE RAPE DRUG.
AND I HAVE GREAT CONCERN THAT
THIS BILL WOULD LEGALIZE THE
POSSESSION OF A DATE RAPE DRUG
JUST IN TWO THOUSAND SEVENTEEN-
OUR FORMER COLLEAGUE SENATOR
GALGIANI HAD A BILL. PRESENTED
PASSED AND SIGNED BY THE
GOVERNOR THAT WOULD- MAKE IT A
CRIME TO HAVE THAT DRUG FOR
OBVIOUS REASONS. AND SAID THIS
BILL SEEMS TO WORK IN
CONTRADICTION TO THAT EFFORT- I
UNDERSTAND THAT CAN MEAN. THE
IN SOME FORMS IS BEING USED ON
TO TREAT DEPRESSION- THAT YOU
KNOW IS NOT ABLE TO BE TREATED
BY OTHER MEANS. THE HERE
THERE'S SOME IT'S JUST STUBBORN
AND THE PERSON QUITE CAN'T GET
BEYOND IT SO THERE'S- SOME
CLINICAL TRIALS AND TESTING
TAKING PLACE IN SEEING IF CAN I
MEAN CAN BE USEFUL IN TREATING
SEVERE DEPRESSION DEPRESSION
THAT HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO- HAVE
BEEN TREATED BY OTHER DRUGS. IN
AN PTSD SORRY RECOGNIZE THAT
THERE MAY BE- SOME CLINICAL
BENEFITS TO USING THIS DRUG FOR
DEPRESSION. HOWEVER I'M- WHEN
CAN I MEAN IS USED TO TREAT
DEPRESSION OR PTSD IT IS USED
IN A CLINICAL SETTING SO
THERE'S TWO FORMS- THERE'S AN
INTRAVENOUS FORM AND THEN
THERE'S A NASAL SPRAY BOTH OF
WHICH HAVE TO BE USED IN A
MEDICAL SETTING UNDER MEDICAL
SUPERVISION- IT'S NOT SOMETHING
THAT A DOCTOR PRESCRIBES AND
HANDS OVER TO A PATIENT IT'S
SOMETHING THAT MUST BE DONE IN
A MEDICAL SETTING. SO IT'S
UNCLEAR TO ME HOW SOMEONE
HAVING A- SMALL AMOUNT OF THIS
TYPE OF A DRUG. ON THEIR PERSON
COULD BE IT COULD POSSIBLY BE
USED FOR TREATING DEPRESSION OR
PTSD BECAUSE THAT'S CURRENTLY
NOT HOW IT'S BEING ADMINISTERED
FOR THE TREATMENT OF THESE
TYPES OF AILMENTS SO I WONDER
IF YOU COULD SPEAK TO THAT
BEFORE I MOVE ON TO MY OTHER
QUESTIONS. EARLIER IF YOU WISH
TO ANSWER YES. THANK YOU MISTER
CHAIRMAN THANK YOU OUT CENTER
MELENDEZ FOR- FOR THE QUESTION-
ON THE BILL OF COURSE DOES NOT
IN ANY WAY LEGALIZE OR
DECRIMINALIZE. DATE RAPE OR
TRUCKING ANYONE OUT. TO RATE
FROM- THAT WILL REMAIN- AN
EXCEPTIONALLY SERIOUS. CRIME AS
IT SHOULD BE- I THINK IT'S ALSO
IMPORTANT TO. ACKNOWLEDGE THAT.
THE WHEN WE TALK ABOUT IN A
QUORUM COURT DATE RAPE DRUGS
FIRST OF ALL. THE MOST COMMON
DATE RAPE DRUG IS A DRUG CALLED
ALCOHOL. AND THEN THERE'S GHB
WHICH IS NOT PART OF THIS BILL
AND THEN THERE ON IS- REFORM
CALLED FOR RUPEES. RIGHT SO ON
AND SO THERE ARE VARIOUS
SUBSTANCES THAT CAN BE USED IN
A REALLY. YOU KNOW AT THE END
OF SOMEONE'S ASSAULTING SOMEONE
ELSE. SLIPPING SOMEONE IN THEIR
DRINK OR JUST GETTING THEM VERY
INTOXICATED ON ALCOHOL AND THEN
DO SOMETHING HORRIBLE- AND
THEY- SHOULD BE PROSECUTED AND
THE STILL DESIGN ANYWAY. STOP
THAT FROM HAPPENING- AND BUT
JUST AGAIN GOING BACK TO BASICS
WITH. THIS BILL IS ABOUT. IS
SHOULD SOMEONE BE PROSECUTED IN
A ROW. FOR POSSESSING THE DRUG.
A AND THAT'S REALLY WHAT DRUG
DECRIMINALIZATION IS ABOUT
SHOULD BE ARRESTING AND
PROSECUTION FOR POSSESSING THE
DRUG ON CADMIUM DOES HAVE A
SIGNIFICANT. THERAPEUTIC
BENEFITS AND IT IS USED AND NOT
HUESO ANY DRUG CAN BE MISUSED
THERE ARE DRUGS THAT ARE LEGAL
TODAY RIGHT NOW. SEE PEOPLE'S
LIVES BUT CAN ALSO BE MISUSED-
AND SO THAT THAT'S REALLY AN
ISSUE THAT IS NOT ANYWHERE
UNIQUE- TO COMING- THANK YOU SO
MISTER CHAIR- YES. JUST MOVING
ON I JUST WANT TO REITERATE
THAT THE USE OF CAN MEAN- THERE
TO USES WELL TO THE WILL SPEAK
ABOUT TODAY ONE IS IN. A
CLINICAL SETTING MORE IT IS
ADMINISTERED BY MEDICAL
PROFESSIONALS AND THE PATIENT
IS OBSERVED IN ITS EITHER
INTRAVENOUSLY GIVEN OR IT IS
THROUGH A NASAL SPRAY BUT AGAIN
MUST BE IN A MEDICAL SETTING IT
IS NOT HANDED OUT TO A PATIENT-
AND IT IS NOT IT'S- IT HASN'T
BEEN PROVEN YET TO BE
COMPLETELY EFFECTIVE IN
TREATING THESE- ELEMENTS
THEY'RE THEY'RE WORKING ON
THAT- THERE IS. I HAVE A
ARTICLE HERE FROM THE HARVARD
MEDICAL SCHOOL THAT SAYS
FURTHER RESEARCH COMPARING
EFFECTIVENESS AND SIDE EFFECTS
IS NEEDED- ADDITIONALLY. LAKE
OPIOIDS CAN MEAN HAS ADDICTIVE
PROPERTIES IT'S IMPORTANT
UNDERSTAND THIS WHEN WEIGHING
RISKS AND BENEFITS IF YOU HAVE
A HISTORY OF SUBSTANCE ABUSE
WHICH IS VERY COMMON AT LEAST
WITH- WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
VETERANS WITH PTSD. ISTORY OF
SUBSTANCE ABUSE SUCH AS ALCOHOL
OR DRUGS. THEN CAME TO ME MAY
NOT BE A GOOD OPTION FOR YOU
WITH THE NASAL SPRAY- THIS IS
GIVEN. SPACE FIVE MINUTES APART
UNDER DOCTOR SUPERVISION YOU
REMAIN IN THE CLINIC UNDER DR
OBSERVATION UNTIL POTENTIAL
SIDE EFFECTS HAVE PASSED. IN
ADDITIONALLY- IT X. THERE ARE
SOME EXPERTS WHO HAVE A
QUESTION THE EFFICACY AND
SAFETY OF THIS DRUG IN PART
BECAUSE IN CLINICAL TRIALS
THREE STUDY PARTICIPANTS
COMMITTED SUICIDE AFTER THEIR
LAST AND DOES SO AGAIN- THIS IS
SOMETHING THAT HAS SHOWS SOME
PROMISE CERTAINLY BUT IT IS
ALSO USED AS A DATE RAPE DRUG
IN WHICH- AND WE- IT IS
ILLEGAL. TO HAVE THE DRUG IN
YOUR POSSESSION FOR THAT EFFORT
AND IF YOU MAKE IT LEGAL. TO
POSSESS THIS. THEN YOU WERE
OPENING UP THE DOOR. IT IS. TO
ESSENTIALLY EIGHT YOU KNOW A
LICENSE TO SIN N USING THIS
DRUG FOR NEFARIOUS PURPOSES I
MEAN THAT'S JUST A REALITY IF
YOU SAY IT'S OKAY THAT YOU CAN
HAVE THIS DRUG IN YOUR POCKET.
YOU MAY CATCH SOME OF THE
PEOPLE WHO USE IT. TO SEXUALLY
ASSAULT SOMEONE BUT THERE ARE
GOING TO BE AN AWFUL LOT OF
OTHERS THAT YOU DON'T CATCH.
IT'S DIFFICULT SO WHILE I
RECOGNIZE. THAT THERE ARE SOME
THERAPEUTICS THAT CAN BE USED
OUT THERE TO TREAT SOME OF
THESE- DIFFERENT ISSUES. ARE I
DON'T KNOW THAT THE- CHANGING A
LAW THAT WE MADE IN. TWO
THOUSAND SEVENTEEN- IS. IS IN
THE BEST INTEREST OF THE PUBLIC
HELP OR CERTAINLY FROM FOR THE
PUBLIC HEALTH OF WOMEN IN THEIR
SAFETY AT THIS POINT SO-
UNFORTUNATELY I WILL BE IN
OPPOSITION TO THIS BILL TODAY
THANK YOU- MAY. D. JEWISH TO
LOG DOT DR GRANT WERE WITNESSES
IS ACTION EXPERT ON KATAMON
THERAPY AND- IF THERE'S A
DESIRE TO HEAR FROM ONE OF OUR
TOPICS WHO ARE TO MOVE ALL AGES
WHATEVER THAT QUESTIONS CENTER
MELENDEZ ARE OKAY SO THAT BUT
PERHAPS OF SOMEONE ELSE WHICH
IS TO POSE THAT QUESTION WE CAN
ASK YOUR EXPERT TO ANSWER THAT
WITH ANY OTHER QUESTIONS. OR
COMMENTS FROM COMMITTEE MEMBERS.
YES SIR LEYVA. OPPOSITE
QUESTION TO THE DOCTOR HOW DOES
THE CAT MING THERAPY WORK
BECAUSE I KNOW I HAVE HEARD.
THAT IT'S FROM IT IS VERY MUCH
HELP SOME PEOPLE TO RECOVER
FROM MENTAL ILLNESS OR LIVE
WITH THEIR MENTAL ILLNESS SO I
WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM THE
DOCTOR. OKAY SO IF WE CAN BRING
DR GRANT ON THE LINE TO ADDRESS
US OR LEAVE US A QUESTION ABOUT
USES OF COMMUNITY THERAPEUTIC.
SENSE AND PERHAPS- IF YOU DON'T
MIND WILL FOCUS IT ON THE
TRAIN- THAT FORMS A WHICH IT
WOULD BE ON A PERSON SO NOT I.
V. WHICH I'VE EXPECTS ONE
TURNAROUND IV BAGS SO TINY BUT.
OTHER USES. OF CAN I MEAN. OCT
GRANT. KIDDING IT IT IS
EFFECTIVE FOR TREATMENT OF
DEPRESSION AND THAT'S-
GENERALLY SAY IT'S USED IN A
VARIETY OF FORMATS- SOME OF
THEM ARE INTRAVENOUS OR
INTRAMUSCULAR INJECTION BUT IN
ADDITION TO MEAN IS THE LIVER
BY INTRA NASAL SPRAY OR BY. LAW
LOS. AND ALL OF THOSE FORMATS
THERE ARE AT LEAST ONE
PUBLISHED STUDY SHOWING. VERY
HIGH RESPONSE RATES IN
DEPRESSION WHICH WE HOPE
COMPRESSION INSIDE ALITY OF.
MORE THAN 6270% OF PEOPLE BY
THE END OF THE FIRST DAY OF
TREATMENT SO IT'S A REMARKABLY
EFFECTIVE MEDICINE FOR THE
TREATMENT OF DEPRESSION AND
SUICIDAL CRISIS- THE NASAL FORM
HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE FOOD
AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION SO- AT
THIS POINT IT'S NO LONGER
INVESTIGATION WHAT IT'S
REGARDED BY THE FDA AND THE
STATE'S RECRUITMENT. AFTER.
DEPRESSION SUICIDALITY- THERE
ARE STUDIES ON GOING ABOUT.
HOME NEWS INTRANASAL SPRAY AS
WELL AS THE ASSEMBLY CORPORATE
LOZENGES IT MIGHT BE. THE
PERSON- I AGREE WITH DR WIENER
THAT. HELLO THIS MEDICINE- HI
IS NOT THE MOST COMMON- DRUG
USE ON. HOW CALL BY FAR IS THAT
CORRECT BEIJING PUTS MOST
COMMONLY USE OF COURSE SO-
INCOME. YOUR TICKET YOU SEEN
THAT- PROHIBITING THE CARRYING
OF THESE MEDICINES IT'S NOT
PERMANENT SO WE HAVE. SEPARATE
STRATEGIES FOR. OKAY THANK YOU
THANK YOU MAYBE I'LL JUST ASK
ONE QUICK FOLLOW UP QUESTION
SINCE WE HAVE THE GOOD DR GRANT
ON THE LINE- AS A FELLOW
PHYSICIAN I ALSO UNDERSTAND-
THAT KIND OF MEAN ORALLY HAS
BEEN USED FOR CHRONIC PAIN
AGAIN PERHAPS THE MOST COMMON
FORM BUT- DAVID STATE I HAVE
RUN ACROSS- RESEARCH LURCH
SHOWN SOME EFFICACY IN MANAGING
CHRONIC PAIN AS WELL AND ORAL
FORM IS ARE YOU FAMILIAR WITH
THAT LITERATURE. THAT IS
CORRECT I MEAN IN ORAL FORM IS.
JUST HELPFUL OF PAIN MANAGEMENT
AND IS COMMONLY USED IN
CALIFORNIA. BUT THIS. THANK YOU
I'M GLAD TO KNOW THE YOU TO
HAVE SEEN SIMILAR SURE OF THE
OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS
FROM COMMITTEE MEMBERS. OKAY
SEVERAL MONTHS SORRY I'M
KEEPING AN EYE ON THE HANDS UP
THEIR SETTLEMENT. IT'S YOUR
CHAIR- I WANT TO START OFF BY-
THE AUTHOR FOR BRINGING THIS
BILL FORWARD IT'S A BILL AT THE
SCENE I HAVE HAD A CHANCE TO
DISCUSS AND THEY CERTAINLY
SPENT A BIT OF TIME. LOOKING
INTO THIS IN TRYING TO
UNDERSTAND WHERE I WOULD FALL.
WHAT IT WHAT I REALLY LIKE
ABOUT THIS BILL IT IS THE FACT
THAT IT CREATES A TASK FORCE AN
EXPERT WORKING GROUP ANY THINK
ALIGNS WITH WHAT'S HAPPENING AT
THE FEDERAL LEVEL WITH THE FDA
ALSO LOOKING INTO THIS- I I'D
LOVE THE IDEA THAT.
CALIFORNIA'S ALSO LOOKING- AT
BRINGING TOGETHER- SOAPS THAT
CAN HELP US THINK THROUGH THE
ISSUES. YOU KNOW HOWEVER I DO
HAVE SOME CONCERNS- WHICH I'VE
SHARED WITH THE AUTHOR- ALTICE
IN THOSE HAVE TO DO ALSO WITH
THE LEGALIZATION. MDMA WHICH AT
TIMES CAN BE CUT WITH THINGS
LIKE MATH- AND I THINK THAT-
YOU KNOW I TRIED TO FIGURE OUT
WHERE I WAS GONNA FALL WITH
THIS- IN IN THE END. YOU KNOW I
DON'T KNOW THAT I CAN BE THERE.
YOU KNOW TODAY BUT I DO WANT TO
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS IS A BILL
THAT REQUIRES A LOT OF US TO
THINK ABOUT WHATEVER LAND. I
DON'T DOUBT. THAT THERE.
ANYTHING THE EVIDENCE SHOWS
THAT THERE IS VALUE IN
PSYCHEDELICS- FOR THOSE. YOU
KNOW THAT IT. THAT NEEDED OR
THEY CAN FIND IT HELPFUL I
THINK THAT WHERE MY DISCOMFORT
LIES. IS REALLY IN IN IN THIS
KIND OF MULTI PROCESS OF HAVING
EXPERT GROUPS CONVENE- BUT
ALMOST ACTEON ON THIS BEFORE
THE EXPERT GROUPS HELP US THINK
THROUGH SOME OF THESE ISSUES
THE EXPERT GROUP GROUP BEING
THE TASK FORCE BUT ALSO KNOWING
THAT THE FDA- AT THE FEDERAL
LEVEL IS LOOKING AT THIS SO.
THAT YOU KNOW I WANT TO BE SURE
THAT EXPLAIN WHY I WILL BE
THERE ON THIS BILL BUT ALSO. DO
YOU REALLY THINK THE AUTHOR
BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF WORK
THAT'S BEEN PUT INTO THIS AND
DESPITE MY COMFORT LEVEL WITH
THIS. BILL TODAY I DO
UNDERSTAND WHY WE'RE ASKING
OURSELVES THESE QUESTIONS THAT
WHILE WE'RE MOVING FORWARD. ON
SOME OF THESE ISSUES SO THANK
YOU. THANK YOU CENTER LIMóN-
THE CENTER EGGMAN. THANK YOU
VERY MUCH- AND I'D ALSO LIKE
THE AUTHOR FOR GETTING TO US
FOR BRINGING THIS FORWARD-
HAVING SPENT TIME WORKING IN
AROUND ADDICTION. I CAN SAY
THAT THE DRUG THAT HAS HAD THEM
THE WORST IMPACT HEALTH FAMILY
LEGAL. IS A VERY LEGAL DRUG
ALCOHOL. AND THAT REMAINS LEGAL
AND- AND A MAIN PART OF OUR
ECONOMY AS WELL AS OUR SOCIETY.
SO I WOULD JUST SAY AS- WHEN
THE TIME IS APPROPRIATE I ILL
MOVE THIS BILL- AND BECAUSE THE
QUESTION BEFORE US RIGHT NOW
REALLY IS AGAIN IF WE IF WE
LIKE OR DON'T LIKE OR- OR
SOMETHING COULD BE USED IT IS
AN ABUSE OF WAY WE KNOW ANY
DRUG HER. OR A KNIFE OR A GUN
OR ANYTHING IT CAN BE USED- TO
HURT OTHERS THAT IS NOT THE
INTENTION OF THIS BILL THIS
BILL SIMPLY SAYS. FOR THIS
GROUP OF SUBSTANCES SHOULD WE
BE ARRESTING AND- CRIMINALIZING
AND PUTTING PEOPLE IN JAIL. FOR
POSITION THAT'S WHAT WE'RE
SAYING. AND SO IT WAS STRICTLY
MOVE THIS BILL. THANK YOU.
ORDER AND OTHER QUESTIONS OR
COMMENTS. OKAY YEAH CENTER
MELENDEZ YES I'M SORRY MR
CHAIRMAN I JUST HAVE ONE MORE
QUESTION FOR THE AUTHOR
BECAUSE- IT I AM. SEEING HERE
THAT IT'S IT SAYS- THE BILL
COMMISSION TO WORKING GROUP
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS. ON
THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY
IMPLICATIONS OF DECRIMINALIZING
THESE CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES AND
IDENTIFICATION OF REGULATED USE
MODELS FROM OTHER JURISDICTIONS
BY THE YEAR TWENTY TWENTY FOUR.
AND I AM- I GUESS WONDERING WHY
THAT WOULD GO INTO EFFECT TWO
YEARS AFTER. THIS LAW WOULD GO
INTO EFFECT WHY WOULD WHY WOULD
WE COMMISSION A STUDY ON DOING
THE VERY THING THAT. THIS BILL
SEEKS TO DO IT. SENATE WIENER I
THANK YOU MR SO THE PURPOSE OF
THE WORKING GROUP IS NOT TO
GIVE AN OPINION ABOUT WHETHER
WE SHOULD DECRIMINALIZE THE
PURPOSE OF THE WORKING GROUP'S
THE SECOND ONCE WE HAVE
STOPPED. ARRESTING AND
PROSECUTING FOR PEOPLE FOR
POSSESSING THE SUBSTANCES. WHAT
CAN WE THINK ABOUT IN THE
FUTURE IN TERMS OF POTENTIAL.
REGULATION YOU RECALL THAT WITH
FOR EXAMPLE CANNABIS. WE DID IT
IN TWO STEPS FIRST THE VOTERS
STEPPED IN AND SAID THEY WERE.
GOING TO DECRIMINALIZE-
MEDICINAL CANNABIS- HONESTLY
THAT WAS EFFECTIVELY
DECRIMINALIZATION IN THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA. AND THEN TWENTY
YEARS LATER- THE VOTERS PASSED
ON THE ADULT USE MORE
REGULATORY- OUR SYSTEM IS A TWO
SEPARATE THINGS. AND SO THE
PURPOSE OF TASK FORCES THAT
OKAY NOW WE'VE DECRIMINALIZED.
STOPPED ARRESTING PEOPLE- WHY
DO WE DO IN THE FUTURE BECAUSE
THAT IS FRANKLY EVEN THAT'S
MORE COMPLICATED- IN TERMS OF
POTENTIAL REGULATION- THERE ARE
ACTIVE THE DATES RIGHT NOW
ABOUT COMMERCIALIZATION. AS
THERE ARE WITH FRANKLY WITH
WITH CANNABIS- AND SO THAT
THAT'S THE PURPOSE OF THE- OF
THE OF THE TASK FORCE. AND I HI
I WAS THAT WE DON'T NEED A TASK
FORCE TO TELL US THAT ARRESTING
JAILING AND CRIMINALIZING
PEOPLE FOR DRUG POSSESSION WE
DON'T NEED A TEST FIRST TELL US
ABOUT THIS AND MARK. ANY OTHER
QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS. I DON'T
SEE ANY MICROPHONES UP NO HE
ENDS UP- SO CENTER WIENER- THE
ESTIMATE YOU KNOW I'M NOT NOT
THE MOST ENTHUSIASTIC SUPPORTER
OF YOUR BILL- SOMEONE WHO IS
YOU KNOW CERTAINLY CONCERNED- I
THINK- ABOUT- ABOUT WHAT IMPACT
THESE SUBSTANCES CAN HAVE HELP
AT THE SAME TIME AS YOU POINTED
OUT- FIRST OF ALL THEY D. AT
YOUR DATE- CRIMINALIZING IT
DEFINITELY HAS A NEGATIVE
IMPACT. AND IT'S INTERESTING
THAT WE BROUGHT UP ALCOHOL
SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE IN THIS
COUNTRY WE DID TRY
CRIMINALIZING ALCOHOL. AND WITH
THIS WE FIGURED OUT HOW QUICKLY
HOW BADLY THAT TURNE OUT IN
FACT IN WEEK I'M CRIMINALIZED
ALCOHOLS- SO WE ACTUALLY TRIED
THAT EXPERIMENT HERE- WE'RE
DOING IT AGAIN WE'VE DONE IT
AGAIN WITH OTHER SUBSTANCES
INCLUDING PSYCHEDELICS- BUT
ALSO NOTING THAT- WE TALK ABOUT
PSYCHEDELICS AT LEAST FROM MY
PERSPECTIVE- YOU KNOW THERE'D.
THEY'RE NOT ADDICTIVE PER SE-
SO I THINK I HAVE A TRY HAVE A
SOMEWHAT DIFFERENT ATTITUDE
TOWARD SOME OTHER SUBSTANCES
THAT WOULD- BE MORE ADDICTIVE
WHAT'S HARD FOR SOMEONE TO. TO
STOP USAGE- THE AS YOU POINTED
OUT THEY DO HAVE THERAPEUTIC
BENEFITS. MANY OF THEM- WELL
GENERALLY I WOULD SAY THOSE
SHOULD BE HANDLED UNDER
PRESCRIPTION I'D ALSO MAKE NOTE
THAT I AGREE WITH YOU THAT JUST
BECAUSE SOMEONE POSSESSING IT.
SHOULDN'T BE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR
SOMEONE TO GET NOW FIND
THEMSELVES ENGAGE WITH LAW
ENFORCEMENT. AND WITH THAT YOU
KNOWI DO THINK YOU MAKES US
SOME VERY COMPELLING ARGUMENTS
IN TERMS OF THE LEVEL OF HARM
TO OR CREATING BY CRIMINALIZING
THE SUBSTANCES. A TIED IT IN WE
DO NEED TO PROVISION- AND I
APPRECIATE THE OPPOSITION'S
TESTIMONY THAT IT'S NOT. THAT
YOU KNOW WE- THAT WE DO NEED
RIGHT SUPPORT FOR PEOPLE WHO
MAY HAVE. NEGATIVE EXPERIENCES
OR HAVE- YOU KNOW AND ACCESS
TO. THE SITE AT THE SUBSTANCES
THAT THAT THAN FORGING TURNED
OUT BADLY- YOU KNOW THAT'S
THAT'S OF ACCESS TO SUBSTANCE
USE TREATMENT AND SO FORTH. BUT
I THINK WHEN IT COMES TO AT
LEAST- THIS PARTICULAR. SET OF-
SUBSTANCES- GIVEN BOTH THEIR
POTENTIAL THERAPEUTIC BENEFIT
AS WELL AS- I THINK THE WELL
THERE'S CERTAINLY SOME RISK OF
HARM THAT- I THINK THAT THAT-
BUT- IT'S SOMETHING THAT- THE
HARM FROM THE GLOBALIZATION
THINK IT'S MUCH WORSE. SO I
WILL BE SUPPORTING YOUR BILL I
APPRECIATE YOU BRINGING THIS
FORWARD I APPRECIATE THAT.
DISCUSSION I'M SURE YOU HAVE
ONGOING DISCUSSIONS ABOUT THE
BILL AS A NEWS FORD. I
APPRECIATE YOU PUTTING THIS
BEFORE US AND ALLOWING US TO
HAVE THIS DEBATE. AND I THINK
IT'S ONE THAT WE NEED TO
CONTINUE AND- CERTAINLY TO
POLICY WE CERTAINLY NEED TO
SERIOUSLY CONSIDER. SO THAT
WOULD YOU LIKE TO CLOSE. THANK
YOU VERY MUCH MR CHAIRMAN MR
AND I REALLY APPRECIATETHOSE
THOUGHTFUL REMARKS- AND YOU
KNOW. WE KNOW THAT. WITH ANY
SUBSTANCE LEGAL ILLEGAL ANY
SUBSTANCE. CAN BE. MISUSED HI-
ANY SUBSTANCE YOU CAN HAVE A
PERSON CAN HAVE A- HEALTHY
RELATIONSHIP. WITH ANY
SUBSTANCE LEGAL OR ILLEGAL-
AND- AND THAT'S WHY MISTER YOU
AND I AND WE ALL MANY OF US IN
YOUR WORK CLOSELY TOGETHER TO
MAKE SURE THE FOR PEOPLE WHO DO
DEVELOP. HARMFUL OR UNHEALTHY
RELATIONSHIPS WITH ANY
SUBSTANCE WHETHER IT'S ALCOHOL
OR MATH OR ANY SUBSTANCE THAT
WE HAVE IT THEY HAVE ACCESS TO
MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT TO
ADDICTION TREATMENT AND THIS
COMMITTEE HAS BEEN FANTASTIC
AND MOVING FORWARD. BILLS AND-
YOU KNOW SENT A CENTER EGGMAN
AND I ARE WORKING TOGETHER AND-
ON A LEADING OR MENTAL HEALTH
CAUCUS AND SO- WE ABSOLUTELY
NEED TO MAKE SURE AND WE NEED
TO DO MORE. TO HELP PEOPLE WHO
ARE STRUGGLING WHETHER WITH THE
WITH ADDICTION OR OR EVEN IF A
DRUG IS NOT ADDICTIVE JUST WITH
AN UNHEALTHY RELATIONSHIP
WITHOUT DRUGS. BUT WE ALSO KNOW
THAT PSYCHEDELIC SUBSTANCES.
CAN ALSO SAVE LIVES AND WE'VE
HEARD A AND FOR THE VETERAN
THAT WE HEARD FROM WE COULD
HAVE YOU KNOW IF WE ALL THE
TIME IN THE WORLD. PUT A
HUNDRED VETERANS UP THERE. OR
WE COULD TALK TO A FORMER
COLLEAGUE OF MINE. BACK IN THE
OLD WAY BACK IN THE DAY WHEN I
WAS A LAWYER IN PRIVATE
PRACTICE- HE AND HIS WIFE THEIR
SON IS A TEENAGER BECAME BADLY
ADDICTED TO HEROIN AND THERE'S
A LETTER IN THE RECORD FROM
HIM. AND THEY TRIED EVERYTHING
UNDER THE SUN. TO GET HIM OFF
OF HER OWN EVERYTHING FAILED IN
THEIR RESOURCES AND EVERYTHING
FELT. UNTIL THEY SENT HIM TO
NOT BROUGH LIKE OUR VETERAN HAD
TO GO TO MEXICO FOR IDLE GAME
TREATMENT AND HE HAS NOT USED
HER WHEN SENSE WE SHOULD NOT BE
FORCING PEOPLE. UNDERGROUND OR
TO TRAVEL TO ANOTHER COUNTRY TO
GET TREATMENT TO SAVE THEIR
LIVES. WE SHOULD BE TAKING
THOSE STEPS AND ALLOWING PEOPLE
ACCESS HERE THAT'S WHAT THIS IS
ABOUT. J. REALLY THOUGHT
DISCUSS TODAY COLLEAGUES AND I
RESPECTFULLY ASK YOUR AYE VOTE.
OKAY THANK YOU SIR WIENER AT
THE IT'S THIS BILL'S BEEN MOVED

EXCITING TIME NUMBER SEVEN SP
FIVE FIVE EIGHT BY CENTER
CAPITAL WELCOME. HE'S BEEN
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR AND
MEMBERS FIRST I WANT TO THANK
THE COMMITTEE STAFF FOR THEIR
WORK I WILL BE ACCEPTING THE TO
SUGGESTED AMENDMENTS NUMBER ONE
TO DECIMATE CAL OVER YES IS THE
LEAD AGENCY OF THE FARMER
DISASTER RELIEF TASK FORCE.
NUMBER TWO TO PROVIDE MORE TIME
FOR THE TASK FORCE REPORT TO
THE LEGISLATURE. THANK YOU FOR
THE OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT SB
FIVE FIVE EIGHT A SIMPLE BUT
IMPORTANT BILL. THE BILL WOULD
ESTABLISH THE FORMER DISASTER
RELIEF PLANNING TASK FORCE TO
EXAMINE THE NEEDS OF
FARMWORKERS THEIR FAMILIES AND
THEIR COMMUNITIES FOR IMMEDIATE
INTERMEDIATE AND LONG TERM
SUSTAINABLE AND EQUITABLE
ACCESS. TO HEALTH CARE SAFETY
NET SERVICES AND OTHER SOCIAL
AND ECONOMIC RELIEF DESERT
DURING DISASTERS AND PANDEMICS.
CREATING THIS TASK FORCE IS
CRITICAL FOR A STATE TO BE IN
THE RIGHT POSITION TO ASSIST
FARMWORKERS DURING THE MOST
CRITICAL TIME OF NEED. DURING
TIMES OF A DISASTER.
FARMWORKERS ARE AMONG THE MOST
VULNERABLE WORKERS IN OUR STATE
AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE AS WE
EXPERIENCE CLIMATE. RELATED
EMERGENCY EVENTS SUCH AS
WILDFIRES AND DROUGHTS. AS YOU
KNOW THE PANDEMIC HAS
DISPROPORTIONATELY. AFFECTED
FARMWORKERS HELP. THE ANALYSIS
PROVIDES A GOOD SUMMARY OF THE
RECENT UC BERKELEY WHITE PAPER
ON THE IMPACT OF COVERED
NINETEEN ON FARMWORKERS. FORMER
COMMUNITIES FEEL LEFT BEHIND
AND RIGHTLY SO THE COMMUNITIES
LIKE MANY RESOURCES WE TAKE FOR
GRANTED INCLUDING ACCESS TO
CLEAN WATER AFFORDABLE HOUSING
HEALTH CARE AND FOOD. IN THE
PAST FEW MONTHS I HAVE
PARTICIPATED IN MANY FOOD P. P.
E. N. NOW VACCINE DISTRIBUTIONS
THROUGHOUT MY DISTRICT AND I'VE
SEEN THE GREAT NEED TO PROVIDE
ASSISTANCE TO THESE HARD
WORKING FAMILIES. AND TO ENSURE
SUCH ASSISTANCE IS PROVIDED IN
A COORDINATED EFFICIENT AND
NIMBLE APPROACH. THE
UNPRECEDENTED PANDEMIC
NECESSITATED AN IMMEDIATE
RESPONSE TO THE EVER CHANGING
SITUATION WE SAW MANY GAPS. FOR
EXAMPLE LACK OF CULTURALLY
RELEVANT INFORMATION ON THE
PANDEMIC LACK OF ACCESS TO KOBE
TESTING AND P. P. E. LACK OF
ACCESS TO FOOD DISTRIBUTION AND
OTHER GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE
PROGRAM. AND FINALLY. BLACK OF
ACCESS TO VACCINES. THE BOTTOM
LINE IS THAT WE RELY ON OUR ON
THE COUNTIES TO BE OUR- TO WORK
IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE STATE
TO PROVIDE EMERGENCY RESOURCES.
AND THE FACT THAT EVERY COUNTY
ATTACK THIS ISSUE IT IN A
TOTALLY DIFFERENT WAY MADE IT
VERY DIFFICULT. TO FIRST OF ALL
UNDERSTAND WHAT KIND OF
COORDINATION OR LACK OF
COORDINATION WAS GOING ON BUT
ALSO WHAT KIND OF SERVICES WERE
AVAILABLE AND HOW TO BE ABLE TO
DISTRIBUTE THAT INFORMATION TO
THE FARMWORKERS COMMUNITY SO
THAT THEY KNEW HOW TO PROTECT
THEMSELVES. THEY KNEW WERE TO
ACCESS RESOURCES AND THEY KNEW-
WHO IS IN CHARGE AND WHO WAS
WHO WAS LOOKING OUT FOR THEM.
WE SAW THE NEED FOR BETTER
COORDINATION WITH COMMUNITY
BASED ORGANIZATIONS THAT WORK
WITH FARMWORKERS EVERYDAY AS
WELL. GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS OFTEN
TIMES DID NOT INCLUDE THEIR
INPUT. WHAT I PROPOSE WITH THIS
BILL IS A CALIFORNIA DO BETTER
IN THE FUTURE. THE TASK FOCE
WILL HELP OUR STATE RESPONDED
WITH AN EQUITY LENS AT THE
FOREFRONT. THANK YOU AND I ASK

GREAT RECESSION- IN OUR WORK
WITH FARM WORKER COMMUNITIES
WE'VE LEARNED SEVERAL THINGS
ONE IS THAT SENATOR. STATED
THAT THERE IS A
DISPROPORTIONATE IMPACT ON
AGRICULTURAL WORKERS AND THEIR
COMMUNITIES WHAT CO MADE THEIR
FAR MORE LIKELY TO CONTRACT.
PROBATED AND SUFFER
CONSEQUENCES YET THEY LAGGED
AND ACCESS TO TESTING
VACCINATION AND MANY OTHER WILL
BE BENEFITS FARMWORKERS WERE
CONSIDERED ESSENTIAL FROM
BEGINNING. BUT FELT INVISIBLE.
IT'S BEEN A DISK IN THOSE
RELIEF BETWEEN STATE AGENCIES
AND SYMBIOZ COMMUNITY BASED
ORGANIZATIONS- THAT ARE WELL
MEANING STATE TRIGGERING
RESPONSES BY MULTIPLE AGENCIES
BUT OFTEN WITHOUT COORDINATION
AMONG THE AGENCIES AND
POTENTIALLY LOOK LOCAL
AGENCIES. AND COMMUNITY BASED
ORGANIZATIONS ON THE GROUND.
WE'VE HAD IT'S A SENATOR
STATED- DISPARATE RESPONSES BY
COUNTIES. FOR INSTANCE DURING
THE DROUGHT DISEMBARKING VALLEY

NOT APPLY FOR DRIVING. IT HAS
BEEN ON BEHALF OF FORMER KING

RISING- IT INFECTION RATE AMONG
FARMWORKERS IN AT THE END OF
THE SUMMER- WE SAW HUGE RISE AT
THE SAME TIME THAT WE SAW A-
INCREDIBLE- WILDFIRE. IN
CATASTROPHE HAPPENING THE AIR
QUALITY WAS HORRIBLE EVERYBODY
WAS TOLD TO STAY INDOORS AND
FARMWORKERS WERE LEFT OUTSIDE

PLAN SO I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR

I BELIEVE YOU PERCENT FOR YOUR

MISTER CHAIR AND MEMBERS.
EXCUSE ME HI LIKE A LOT OF US I
THINK I'M SUFFERING FROM
ALLERGIES TODAY SO PLEASE BEAR
WITH ME. I WANT TO START BY
THANKING THE CHAIR AND THE CODE
ON THE COMMITTEE STAFF FOR ALL
THEIR WORK. THOUGHTFUL AND
DILIGENT IN NOT WORKING ON THIS
AND- AND I AM ACCEPTING THE
AMENDMENTS THAT ADDRESSED THE
ISSUES LAID OUT IN THE
ANALYSIS. I DON'T WANT TO
DISTRACT TOO MUCH FROM THE
SCOPE OF THIS BILL WHICH IS
VERY TARGETED AND SPECIFIC. BUT
I JUST WANT TO BRIEFLY MENTION
KIND OF THE BROADER ISSUE ON
RIGHT TO REPAIR IF YOU'VE BEEN-
OVERWHELMED WITH THE OPPOSITION
TO THIS BILL YOU MIGHT THINK
WHAT WHAT IS THIS BILL DOING
THAT SO MANY PEOPLE ARE
OPPOSING WELL. IT'S A LOT IT'S
THIS IS A MOVEMENT THAT'S BEEN
WORKING AROUND THE COUNTRY AND
SO THERE'S INTEREST IN IT- A
PEOPLE MAY RECALL I'VE WORKED
IN THIS SPACE. FOR A WHILE AND
THEN THE ISSUE IS JUST THIS
WHEN. WHEN CORPORATIONS. SELL
US A PRODUCT DO WE OWN IT OR DO
THEY OWN IT AND IF WE OWN IT
MAY WE GET IT REPAIRED. BY
SOMEBODY OTHER THAN THE COMPANY
WHO SOLD IT TO US. I UNDERSTAND
THAT'S THEIR BUSINESS MODEL BUT
WE NEED TO QUESTION I THINK
THERE'S A BUSINESS MODEL WORK
FOR. EVERYDAY PEOPLE. DOES IT
WORK FOR IN THISCASE HOSPITALS
DOES IT WORK FOR PATIENTS. AND
DOESN'T WORK FOR REPAIR PEOPLE
WHO ARE QUALIFIED. A LOT OF
THEM SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS
ENTREPRENEURS- SO THAT'S THAT'S
THE QUESTION BEFORE US TODAY
AND IF YOU'RE WONDERING WHY
THERE WAS SO MUCH OPPOSITION.
THAT'S WHY- EVERYONE BANDS
TOGETHER TO TRY TO STOP
SOMETHING THEY THINK MIGHT HURT
THEIR BUSINESS MODEL- THE
FUNDAMENTAL GOALS OF THE RIGHT
TO REPAIR MOVEMENT ARE TO
REDUCE WASTE. INCREASE
COMPETITION FOR REPAIR TO
SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES.
IMPROVE PRODUCT DURABILITY AND
RESTORE WHAT IT TRULY MEANS. TO
OWN OUR OWN STUFF I THINK WE
CAN ALL. AGREE WITH THOSE
PRINCIPLES- AND OUR
CONVERSATION IS TODAY WILL THIS
MOVEMENT IS HAPPENING AROUND
THE COUNTRY. IT IS HOW DO WE
TRANSFERRED THESE PRINCIPLES.
INTO PUBLIC POLICY. AND THAT'S
WHAT WE'RE WORKING ON. TODAY M.
THE BILL TAKES A SIMPLE
APPROACH LOOKING JUST ONE
CATEGORY PRODUCTS MEDICAL
DEVICES AND TRIES TO OPEN UP
THE REPAIR MARKET BY ALLOWING
ACCESS TO THE NEEDED PARTS
TOOLS DOCUMENTATION AND
SOFTWARE FOR MAINTENANCE AND
REPAIR RIGHT NOW IT IS LEGAL
FOR THE HOSPITAL TO REPAIR
THEIR OWN EQUIPMENT OR FOR
SOMEBODY THEY CONTRACT WITH TO
REPAIR EQUIPMENT THAT THE
HOSPITAL HAS PURCHASED THAT THE
HOSPITAL OWNS. BUT SUFFERS IS
PUT INTO PLACE- THE STOP AT THE
REPAIRS CAN IN FACT JUST SHUT
DOWN A DEVICE IF IT IS NOT
REPAIRED BY THE MANUFACTURER-
AND- THERE IS NOT ENOUGH ACCESS
T PARTS THE TOOLS. THE
DOCUMENTATION. AS OPPOSED TO BE
AMENDED ACCESS TO THESE
RESOURCES. SPITTLE ON THE
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR OF THEIR
EQUIPMENT. REPORTING EARLY ON
IN THE COPA NINETEEN PANDEMIC I
THINK HIGHLIGHTED JUST NOT JUST
THE LACK OF INVESTMENT IN
SUPPLY AND EQUIPMENT STOCKPILES
BUT THE CHALLENGES PRESENT AND
TRYING TO REPAIR MEDICAL
EQUIPMENT. AND I THINK THE KEY
TAKEAWAY IS THAT THIS IS NOT A
PROBLEM BECAUSE OF THE PANDEMIC
BUT IT WAS AN EXISTING PROBLEM
LIKE A LOT OF THINGS MADE
VISIBLE TO US BY THE PANDEMIC.
HOSPITALS IN CALIFORNIA MAY
EMPLOY IN HOUSE BIOMEDICAL
ENGINEERS AND TAX AND THEY MAY
WORK WITH INDEPENDENT SERVICE
ORGANIZATIONS ON ALA CARTE OR
CONTRACT BASIS THESE ARE
PROFESSIONALS WHO WORK ON
MEDICAL EQUIPMENT FOR A LIVING.
STOP TO THINK ABOUT THE
TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES WE RUN
INTO UST TRYING TO USE
TECHNOLOGY TO RUN A COMMITTEE
HEARING FOR EXAMPLE AND YOU CAN
APPRECIATE WHY IS IMPORTANT FOR
HOSPITALS TO HAVE PEOPLE READY
THERE TO BE ABLE TO FIX THINGS.
THESE PROFESSIONALS HAVE
IDENTIFIED THE MANUFACTURE
CREATED BARRIERS TO REPAIR IS
CRUCIAL HINDRANCE IN THEIR WORK
AND TO PATIENT CARE LAST SPRING
IN A SURVEY OF BIO MED'S. U. S.
PARADE FOUND THAT 92% OF
RESPONDENTS REPORTED THEY HAD
BEEN DENIED ACCESS TO SERVICE
INFORMATION FOR CRITIC CRITICAL
EQUIPMENT. 30% REPORTED
EQUIPMENT IN THEIR FACILITIES
THAT THE DATE COULD NOT BE USED
DUE TO RESTRICTIONS ON SPARE
PARTS AND SERVICE INFORMATION.
AND NEARLY 70% OF RESPONDENTS
SAID THEIR HOSPITAL HAS HAD TO
DELAY. A PATIENT PROCEDURE
BECAUSE THEY WERE WAITING ON A
MANUFACTURER SERVICE
REPRESENTATIVE TO FIX A DEVICE.
THE SURVEY NUMBERS HELP PAINT A
PICTURE. THE CALIFORNIA
HOSPITALS WHO SUPPORT THIS THIS
EFFORT AND REPORT THAT
MANUFACTURES OFTEN UNABLE TO
SERVICE EQUIPMENT AT THE TIME
FRAME NEEDED AND THE HOSPITAL'S
TEAM MUST DECIDE BETWEEN TAKING
A MACHINE THAT IS DUE FOR
REGULAR MAINTENANCE OFFLINE. OR
NOT HAVING MET ITS MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULE. WHO IS THE SERVICE
WHO BENEFIT FROM HOSPITAL'S
MACHINES GOING OFFLINE OR
MISSING MAINTENANCE EXPERTS ON
THE SCENE OR DENIED THE TOOLS
PARTS AND INFORMATION THEY NEED
TO DO THEIR JOBS. THE OPPONENTS
WILL ARGUE THAT THIS EQUIPMENT
IS TOO COMPLICATED THE ONLY
THEIR TRAIN PEOPLE CAN REPAIR
THEM. BUT THE WRIST CARE REALLY
FALLS ON THE PATIENTS IN
HOSPITALS WHO RELY ON THESE
MACHINES. AND CONSUMER
ADVOCATES AND HEALTH PROVIDERS
AGREE THAT THIS BILL WOULD HELP
THEM. I THINK THE COMMITTEE
ANNOUNCES THAT A GREAT JOB
BREAKING DOWN THE FINDINGS OF
THE FDA REPORT IN TWENTY
EIGHTEEN. SO JUST HIGHLIGHT
THAT THIS AFTER EXTENSIVE
REVIEW THEY DID NOT BELIEVE
THAT A SAFETY PROBLEM EXIST.
WITH THE SERVICING MANY
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR OF
MEDICAL DEVICES BY EITHER THIRD
PARTY ORGANIZATIONS. OR
MANUFACTURERS. IT'S IMPORTANT
ENOUGH RIGHT THAT WAS FTA
BECAUSE I THINK YOU'LL HEAR
FROM THE OPPOSITION OF THE FTA
SAID THERE'S ALL THESE PROBLEMS
THEY DID NOT BELIEVE THAT A
SAFETY PROBLEM EXIST WITH THE
SERVICING. MAINTENANCE AND
REPAIR OF MEDICAL DEVICES BUT
YOU THE THIRD PARTY THE
ORGANIZATIONS OR MANUFACTURERS.
THIS BILL IS SIMPLYREQUIRING
THAT THE SAME PARTS TOOLS
INFORMATION SOFTWARE AND
TRAINING AVAILABLE TO
MANUFACTURERS AUTHORIZED REPAIR
NETWORK. ALSO BE AVAILABLE TO
THOSE THIRD. PARTIES AN IN
HOUSE ENGINEERS WORKING ON THIS
CRITICAL EQUIPMENT. WHEN
DEVICES GO OFFLINE AND CARES
DELAYED ITS PATIENTS THAT
SUFFER. THIS BILL CAN INCREASE
PUMP COMPETITION HOPEFULLY
REDUCE COSTS AND HELP PEOPLE.
IGNORE LOGIC THERE ARE PEOPLE
OUT THERE WHO CAN FIX THINGS
WHOSE JOB IT IS TO FIX THINGS.
AND SAYS THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE
ACCESS TO THE RIGHT PARTS.
TOOLS AND DOCUMENTS TRACING TO
THEY CAN SAFELY AND TIMELY DO
THAT. I'D ASK FOR YOUR AYE VOTE
AT THE APPROPRIATE TIME AND
WITH ME TO TESTIFY. IN SUPPORT
IS KEVIN O. RILEY WITH U. S.

MANUFACTURERS ROUTINELY
RESTRICT HOSPITAL IN
INDEPENDENT BIOMEDICAL REPAIR
TECHNICIANS ARE BY A MESSAGE
FROM ACCESSING ESSENTIAL OKAY
MATERIALS. AT THE OUTSET OF THE
PANDEMIC WIPES MARCH ONE
INDEPENDENT SERVICE
ORGANIZATION RECEIVED A HUNDRED
VENTILATORS FROM THE HOSPITALS
THAT WORKS WITH. DEFENSE NEED
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND TESTING
BEFORE THEY COULD BE PUT TO USE
BUT THE MANUFACTURER IF USED TO
SELL THE INDEPENDENT THE KIDS
NEEDED TO DO THIS SIMPLY
BECAUSE THEY WERE A THIRD
PARTY. AS A RESULT IT WAS MORE
THAN FOUR MONTHS BEFORE THE
HOSPITALS WERE ABLE TO PUT THAT
IN A LETTER FROM THE TRUCK
STRATEGIC STOCKPILE AND USE.
FOUR MONTHS OF THE COULD NOT BE
USED TO TREAT COPD PATIENTS.
PATIENTS DON'T HAVE ANYWHERE
CLOSE TO THAT MUCH OF THE
WEIGHT ESPECIALLY DURING A
PANDEMIC AND THIS DOESN'T JUST
HAPPEN WITHIN A LEADERS ARE
JUST HAPPEN WITHIN AN
INDEPENDENT SERVICE PROVIDERS.
IT'S NO WONDER THE BILL AS
RECEIVED SUCH STRONG SUPPORT
FROM HOSPITALS PARTICULARLY IN
RURAL COUNTIES THAT OFTEN
EXPERIENCE LONGER. WAITS FOR
MANUFACTURE TECHNICIANS. MANY
FACTORS ARE. THAT WHILE THE NOT.
ASPECTS OF THE- IT IS A BIT NOW.
NOT ONE TO PROTECT PROTECT US.
BUT WE CAN'T IGNORE THE DAMAGE
REPAIRS FRICTIONS THE PATIENTS
OR THE FACT THAT IT RAISES THE
COST HEALTHCARE- TAKE SAFETY
CONCERNS SERIOUSLY SO WE LOOKED
AT THE DATA AND IN THE TWENTY
EIGHTEEN AT THE A REPORT TO THE
CENTRE MENTION. IT STATED THAT
MANY THIRD PARTY ENTITIES
PROVIDE HIGH QUALITY SAFE AND
EFFECTIVE SERVICING ON MEDICAL
DEVICES. AND THAT THE CONTINUED
AVAILABILITY OF THIRD PARTY
ENTITIES TO SERVICE AND REPAIR
MEDICAL DEVICES IS CRITICAL TO
THE FUNCTIONING OF THE U. S.
HEALTHCARE SYSTEM. THAT'S WHY
WE AND OTHER CONSUMER AND
PUBLIC HEALTH GROUPS SUPPORT SB
SIX OH FIVE. AT CYBER SECURITY
GOES EXPERTS AGREE THAT REPAIR
ACCESS IS NOT LEAD TO INCREASE
ON OUR ABILITIES. THE BEST
PRACTICES FOR SECURING DATA AND

THERE'S SIGNIFICANT COMPETITION

UNITED STATES. YESTERDAY YES
THE REPORT ACTUALLY STATES THAT
AND I QUOTE THE CURRENTLY
AVAILABLE OBJECTIVE EVIDENCE
NOT SUFFICIENT TO CONCLUDE
WHETHER OR NOT THERE IS
WIDESPREAD PUBLIC HEALTH
CONCERN REALLY SERVICING. BUT
OTHER EVIDENCE AND WORK OF THE
FDA POINTS OUT PROBLEMS
INCLUDING AT THE ANALYSIS
POINTS OUT DOCUMENTED. CASES OF
INJURIES AND DEATHS. SIR ORDER

NOT BY THE- ONLY MY WASTE. ARE

THAT YOU START WITH THE
SANDWICHING A MEDICAL DEVICE
SERVICING AND REPAIR LICENSE
WITHIN THE DEPARTMENT OF
CONSUMER AFFAIRS. WITH
APPROPRIATE TRAINING EXPERIENCE
REQUIREMENTS FOR A VARIETY OF
PRODUCTS SENATORS IT'S AN
EXTREMELY COMPLEX ISSUE IN THE
FDA IN CONGRESS NEEDS RESOLVE
IT BY CREATING A COMPLETE
REGULATED ECOSYSTEM OVERSIGHT
AND TRANSPARENCY BETWEEN ALL
PARTIES. THIS BILL MAKE THINGS
WORSE CAUSE CONFUSION GREAT
LAWSUITS PUSH. UP COSTS.
INSTEAD FURTHER RISK I URGE YOU
TO VOTE NO. THANK YOU. THANK
YOU LET'S NOW MOVE ON TO READ
MATH SAID- MISTER GREASED LEFT
YET GAVE YOU- NECK FIVE SECONDS

YOU CHAIR AND THE MEMBERS OF

NINETEEN NINETY AND I CURRENTLY
OVERSEE DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING
SERVICE DELIVERY ACROSS
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. I'VE
WORKED IN THE INDUSTRY FOR OVER
THIRTY YEARS STARTING IN THE
BIO MED FOR THE MILITARY BUT
ALSO SERVED AS A FIELD ENGINEER
AS WELL AS THE TECHNICAL
SPECIALIST. WE WORK IN IT
INDUSTRY SHARE THE COMMON GOAL
OF DELIVERING THE HIGHEST
QUALITY OF HEALTH CARE
INCLUDING. HAVING ACCESS TO A
RELIABLE AND CLINICALLY
ACCURATE MEDICAL EQUIPMENT THE
CHEATING SKILLED CARPENTRY
SERVICE MEDICAL EQUIPMENT.
REQUIRED MORE THAN HAVING
ACCESS TO INSPECT INSTRUCTION
MANUALS AND DIAGNOSTIC
INFORMATION. IT TAKES A
COMBINATION OF TRADITIONAL
SCHOOLING TECHNICAL TRAINING
MENTORSHIP CONTINUING EDUCATION
AND TOTAL IMMERSION IN THE
PRODUCT. I AM CONCERNED THAT
THIS BILL GIVES VIRTUALLY
ANYONE THE TWO INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY AND TAXES NEEDED TO
TINKER WITH ANY MEDICAL DEVICE.
REGARDLESS OF EXPERIENCE IN
TRAINING AND WITHOUT INSURANCE
TO REGULATORY CONTROLS AND
OVERSIGHT. SPECIFICALLY THERE
IS NO REGULATION OF
UNAUTHORIZED INDEPENDENT
SERVICE PROVIDERS THERE IS NO
TRANSPARENCY ABOUT HOW THEY ARE
TRAINED. THE QUALITY OF THEIR
WORK IN THE PARK THE USE. IN

ALWAYS STRIVE TO IMPROVE HEALTH
CARE QUALITY AND PATIENT
SAFETY. BUT THIS BILL IS THE
MOVE BACKWARD BY CREATING A
PROCESS THAT WOULD ALLOW
SOMEONE WHO MAY LACK THE RIGHT
EXPERTISE TO CERTAIN COMPLEX
MEDICAL EQUIPMENT. WITHOUT ANY
OVERSIGHT OR REGULATION FOR
THESE REASONS I ASK YOU. TO
OPPOSE THIS BILL THANK YOU.

AND MISTER CHAIR THERE ARE NO
FURTHER COMMENT AT THE TIME
OKAY THANK YOU- THAT LET'S MOVE
IT BACK TO QUESTIONS OR
COMMENTS FROM COMMITTEE MEMBERS
SEND RUBIO. THANK YOU MR
CHAIRMAN- YOU KNOW OKAY GONNA
THINK EVERYONE WHO TESTIFIED IN
FAVOR AND OPPOSE- I'M TAKING
YOUR COMMENTS VERY SERIOUSLY
AND NOW THIS IS. A MEDICAL
DEVICE CLARITY THAT THE NATURE
OF THIS BILL IS VERY SENSITIVE
AND IT SAVES LIVES BUT IT COULD
ALSO POTENTIALLY. GO THE OTHER
DIRECTION SO I JUST WANT TO
CLARIFY A FEW THINGS IF I MAY-
WELL FIRST OF ALL I JUST HEARD
THE AUTHOR STATES THAT THE
THERE ISN'T A REPORT BY THE FDA
THAT- STATES THAT. THEY DON'T
BELIEVE THERE'S A SAFETY
PROBLEM THAT EXISTED FOR THIRD
PARTY FIXES THESE MACHINES-
WELL FIRST OF ALL I'D LIKE TO
ASK IF I CAN. HAVE YOUR STUFF
THEN THAT REFER TO BECAUSE I
WOULD LIKE TO READ IT BUT-
SECONDLY. ALONG THOSE LINES I
ALSO HEARD BE OPPOSITION STATE
THAT THE FD EIGHT. HEAVILY
REGULATES THEM SO I JUST KIND
pABOUT THAT PART THE REGULATION
PART OF THE FTA IS NOT
REGULATING. FOR HAVING THE
OVERSIGHT WHO WOULD TAKE OVER
THE OVERSIGHT AND BE. ON TOP OF
THESE ISSUES IF I CAN HAVE THAT
ANSWER THANK YOU. THE SO THAT
THE FDA REPORT IS. I CAN I CAN
SEND YOU A COPY BUT IT IS
DETAILED THROUGH AND SIX
THROUGH EIGHT. OF THE ANALYSIS
IT'S A- IS THERE- SO AS AS AS
DAY AS EVERYONE HAS SAID THIS
IS ALREADY REGULATED THE THIRD
PARTY PEOPLE ARE ALREADY DOING
THIS THE HOSPITALS ARE ALREADY
DOING THIS THE SAME PLACE THAT
THE COMPANY MIGHT GET THEIR
CERTIFICATES I MEAN THESE ARE
STANDARD RIGHT WE HEARD FROM
THE WITNESS SAID THAT THE
THOUGHT TO THE FDA AND CMS
DEPENDING ON THE SYSTEM WHILST
STILL REGULATES IS STILL
REGULATED- SO IT DOES SO THAT
HASN'T CHANGED WHAT WHAT THIS
BILL AND TRIES TO DO AS AS YOU
HAVE HEARD PEOPLE LIKE WILL
CLOSE DOWN THE SOFTWARE. WILL
NOT LET YOU HAVE PARTS WILL
SOMETIMES PUT THE DEVICE IT IN
OFTEN USABLE IF THEY HAVEN'T
BEEN THE ONES TO WORK ON IT
VETERANS STUFF TO BE ABLE TO
OPEN UP MORE TO THINK AND THESE
KINDS OF THINGS ARE ALREADY
HAPPENING AND SO IN CMS. IS A
REGULATING AGENCY. SO THAT SO
THAT DOESN'T CHANGE. THANK YOU
THANK YOU FOR THAT ANSWER- I
ALSO I THOUGHT I HEARD- THAT IF
THE HOSPITAL'S TAKEOVER THEY
DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE. THE
MANDATE- OF RECORDING DEBTS
MAYBE I HEARD IT WRONG AND I
KNOW THAT WHEN SPEAKERS SPEAK
AND IN FAVOR OR IN OPPOSITION
THEY'RE BRINGING AGAINST THE
TIME CLOCK IN THE TALK REALLY
FAST SO IF I MISS THAT I
APOLOGIZE CAN SOMEONE CLARIFY
THAT I THOUGHT I HEARD HIM SAY
THAT. YOU KNOW THE FDA REQUIRES
YOU TO A DOCUMENTATION AS IT
PERTAINS TO FATALITIES BUT NOT
IF THE MEDICAL HOSPITAL
ASSOCIATIONS HAVE TO KEEP
RECORDS OF THIS ANYBODY. VERIFY
THAT. OF SO SOMEBODY DYING A
DEVICE. THAT WHAT YOU'RE
ASKING. I AM GAP ASSERTION
STATED THAT THEY DON'T HAVE TO
KEEP THAT THEY'RE REQUIRED TO
KEEP RECORDS FOR THE FDA OF
FATALITIES OR- NOT RAINY DEBTS
BUT THAT IF THE- IF IT'S OUT OF
THEIR HANDS THAT. THE HOSPITALS
ARE NOT REQUIRED TO KEEP
RECORDS OF ANYBODY. A PASSING
BASED ON THESE EQUIPMENTS THAT
ARE REPAIRED I THINK WITH THEIR
I WOULD. I WOULDN'T LET MY
WITNESSES SPEAK BUT I WOULD
GUESS WHAT THEY'RE SPEAKING
ABOUT IS THAT OF SOMEBODY DIES
FROM A DEVICE THAT THE
MANUFACTURER HAS TO REPORT HOW
MANY DEATHS ARE CAUSED BY A
DEVICE. THAT THE I DON'T THINK
HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH WHO HAS
WORKED ON THAT BUT ALL OF MY
WITNESSES ANSWER- SO IT.
ACTUALLY IS ONE OF THE-
PROPONENTS. CAN SPEAK TO THE
REPORTING REQUIREMENTS BY
HOSPITALS FOR ANY INJURY OR
DEATH CAUSED BY A DEVICE. HI
THIS IS NOT AT HOME WITH YES
YES CAN YOU HEAR ME YES YES
PLEASE IF YOU CONDUCT A GIVEN
YESTERDAY BUT I CAN DEFINITELY
SPEAK TO THAT- IN ANY CASES OF
INCIDENT THE WHETHER IT'S FATAL
OR NONFATAL- THE HOSPITAL'S
OBLIGATED TO REPORT TO THE FDA.
AND IT DEPENDS ON THE
SERIOUSNESS OF THE EVENT IT
BECOMES MORE CRITICAL AND WE
HAVE THE REPORT IN A TIMELY
MANNER WE ARE REGULATED ON THAT
ASPECT AND WE REPORTED WE HAVE
A SYSTEM CALLED MET FUND IT'S
**** OF THE FDA SYSTEM. THAT WE
HAVE TO FOLLOW AND WE ARE
OBLIGATED SOMETHING OPTION. IN
ADDITION TO THAT WE ARE AS WELL
AS THE SENATOR MENTIONED THAT
WE ARE REGULATED BY CMS AND THE
JOINT COMMISSION WHICH CONTROLS
THE QUALITY AND THE
QUALIFICATION. OF THE PEOPLE
PERFORMING THE WORK. I HOPE
THIS ANSWERS YOUR QUESTION YES
AND THANK YOU LAST IF I MAY.
AND THIS GOES TO THE- THE ISSUE
OF BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERS ON
SITE- IN TERMS OF THEIR
EXPERTISE I'M SORRY I'M NOT AN
EXPERT SO I JUST KIND OF
WANTED. TO GET INTO A LITTLE
BIT OF THE TRANSFERENCE OF
EXPERTISE IS THERE. SORT OF A
TRIAL ERROR TIME WHERE YOU KNOW
IF THE IF THE HOSPITAL'S
TAKEOVER IF THE FIXING OF THE
MACHINES. HOW DO THEY GAIN
EXPERTISE DO THEY SPEND TIME
YOU KNOW WORKING ON IT AND I
YOU KNOW IF WE CAN ASK ONE OF
THE BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERS
BECAUSE I HEARD THAT. THROUGH
THE OPPOSITION THAT THEY SPEND
HOURS PRACTICING AND THEN
THERE'S CONTINUING EDUCATION I
MEAN I JUST FOR MY PEACE OF
MIND IS THERE. ANY YOU KNOW
FOLLOW UP EDUCATIONAL THOSE
MACHINES HOW TO BEGIN THAT
EXPERTISE. SO DO YOU WANT YES I
CAN ANSWER THAT AS WELL- AND
THAT'S A VERY GOOD QUESTION. SO
WE HAVE A REQUIREMENT UNDER THE
CMS THE- ARTICLE FOUR EIGHTY TO
THE FORTY ONE B. ONE HI. AND
UNDER THE JOINT COMMISSION.
UNDER THE CHAPTER OF
ENVIRONMENT OF SCARCITY THAT
BOOK ONE BOOK ONE. WE ARE
REQUIRED. TO ONLY ALLOW
QUALIFIED PERSONNEL TO WORK ON
MEDICAL EQUIPMENT. AND PARTS OF
THIS BILL IS WHAT WE'RE ASKING
FOR. IS FOR THE MANUFACTURERS
TO ALLOW US TO BE TRAINED ON
THE SYSTEM WITHOUT BEING
BLOCKED. WE HAVE AN EX WE HAVE
A LIVE EXAMPLE IN MY DEPARTMENT
I SENT ONE OF MY ENGINEERS. TO
ACCOMPANY- WHICH WAS. WITNESSED
ON THE OPPOSITION AND WE WERE
TRAINED ON THE DEVICE AND THEY
SAID WE WILL ALLOW YOU TO WORK
ON THE DEVICE ONCE WE CAME
BACK. WE'RE TRYING TO FIX THE
DEVICE WHEN IT CAME ON PATIENT.
WE WERE SURPRISED THAT THE
LITTLE WALK BEHIND THE SERVICE
HE- RECALLED THE COMPANY WE
SAID. HEY WE WERE TRAINED YOU
GIVE US PERMISSION TO WORK ON
THE DEVICE BUT- NOW IT'S ASKING
ME FOR THE SERVICE HE CAN YOU
GIVE ME IS A RISKY THEY SAID NO
YOU HAVE TO SIGN A CONTRACT.
THEN WHY THE HECK DID I GET THE
SAME. SO THIS IS WHAT THEY'RE
ASKING FOR TRAINERS ALONG WITH
THE CONTAINS. ALLOWS TO GET THE
TOOLS EVEN IF YOU'LL TELL ME
THAT I'M FINE. BUT WE NEED TO
BE ABLE TO DO OUR JOB. WITH THE
YOU FOR THAT ANSWERED TO WANNA
THINK YOU ALSO FOR INDULGING
THE SKY. STOP THANK YOU MISTER
CHAIR. THANK YOU SIR RUBIO
ASSERTED GROVE. THANK YOU
MISTER CHAIR AND I APPRECIATE
YOU LETTING ME COME BACK TO AND
ASK A FEW QUESTIONS ON THIS- ED.
I HATE. TO MAKE IT CALLING FROM
STOCKTON I. I UNDERSTAND THE
PURPOSE OF THE BILL I LIKE THE
BILL I DO I THINK IF IT'S YOUR
EQUIPMENT YOU CAN REPAIR IT OR
HAVE SOMEBODY REPAIRED AT A
LOWER COST- BY ALL MEANS DO IT.
I DO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE-
THE FINES AND PENALTIES- YOU
KNOW A THOUSAND DOLLARS A DAY
FOR- AND THEN A TWO THOUSAND
DOLLARS A DAY AND THEN FIVE
THOUSAND DOLLARS A DAY FOR
EVERY DAY- THAT A VIOLATION
OCCURS. I THINK THAT- I THINK
THAT'S A LOT. AND I MEAN A LOT
I REALIZE THAT YOU KNOW WE HAVE
TO HOLD- MANUFACTURERS AND
PEOPLE ACCOUNTABLE BUT I JUST
THINK THAT THE CONTINUING
DOLLAR AMOUNT AND JESS DRIVES A
LITIGATION AND ATTORNEYS TO BE
INVOLVED IN- I THINK THERE'S A
BETTER WAY TO HANDLE THAT BT I
DO WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I DO I
LIKE WHAT YOU'RE DOING I REALLY
DO BECAUSE I HAVE CONSTITUENTS
THAT HAVE THE SAME ISSUES
DURING THE PANDEMIC WE LEARN
THAT. PEOPLE SHOULD BE ABLE TO
REPAIR AND THEIR OWN EQUIPMENT
AND SO I'M I DO AGREE WITH THAT
I JUST REALLY I HAVE A MIXED
ABOUT THOSE PENALTIES AGAINST-
MANUFACTURERS I HAVE AGING
STUDENTS THOSE FOR PENALTIES
AGAINST EMPLOYERS. BECAUSE
THEY'RE SIGNIFICANTLY HIGH AND
THERE'S NO THERE'S NO- THERE'S
NO CEILING. OF IT TOOK FORTY
FIVE DAYS AND FIVE THOUSAND
DOLLARS A YEAR TOOK THIRTY DAYS
TIMES. YOU KNOW BECAUSE THE
TECHNICAL ISSUES I HAVE A REAL
ANGST ON THAT. IT AFFECTS EVERY
NO THAT'S A THAT'S A QUESTION
WE'RE ALWAYS WILLING TO LOOK AT
THINGS BUT THAT'S FOR THE
DENIAL OF INFORMATION FOR
SOMEONE TO BE ABLE TO DO THEIR
JOB. RIGHT THAT'S THAT THAT IS
WHAT THE FINE IS FOR IT IS THE
OUTRIGHT DENIAL THE REFUSAL. OF
SOMEBODY TO PROVIDE DIVIDE THE
INFORMATION AT THIS BILL WOULD
ALLOW. I APOLOGIZE I COULDN'T
HEAR WHAT YOU WERE SAYING. HI I
APOLOGIZE. I'M SORRY I SAID.
BUT THE FINE IS FOR THE DENIAL
RIGHT IF THIS BILL GOES INTO
AFFECT. STATE SOMEBODY'S
WORKING ON A RESPIRATOR AND
THEY HAVE BEEN BLOCKED OUT OF
IT. THAT IS WHAT THE FINE IS
FOR RIGHT IT'S NOT JUST. IT'S
NOT JUST SOMETHING BEING LATE
IT'S THE REFUSAL OF PROVIDING
THE INFORMATION. THAT WERE THAT
THE BILL ASK FOR. OKAY I
APOLOGIZE SO I MISUNDERSTOOD
THAT ON THE ANALYSIS SO YOU'RE
SAYING THAT THE FINE IF THE
BILL PASSES ONLY IF SOMEONE IS
FIXING THEIR EQUIPMENT AND THEY
GET BLOCKED OUT OF THE ABILITY
TO USE THAT EQUIPMENT WE'RE
SAYING THAT THE WE SHOULD HAVE
ACCESS TO IF THERE'S TRAINING
AS AS AT THE WITNESSES STATED.
OR IF THEY'RE EGGMAN INDEED IF
YOU CAN TALK TO YOU CAN TALKING
SIDEWAYS I KNOW YOU'RE TRYING
TO FACE CENTER GROVE BUT YOU
CAN TALK INTO THE MICROPHONE I
HAVE A BETTER THE HEALTH CHECK
UP YEAH THANK YOU SORRY. THANK
YOU THIS IS ALWAYS AWKWARD WHEN
YOU'RE SPEAKING TO PEOPLE AND
YOU CAN'T LOOK AT THEM. IN TO
WEARING MASKS. BUT I WAS SAYING
WHAT GOES INTO EFFECT IN THIS
BILL THE FINE IS FOR. SOMEBODY
NOT FOLLOWING THROUGH ON THAT
IT IS NOT JUST. BY ME. SO YES I
GUESS I GUESS YOUR ISSUE IS A
FEW YOU DON'T LIKE A FINE. FOR
SOMEBODY NOT FOLLOWING THE LAW
THEN. SO I UNDERSTOOD THE FINE
TO BE JUST ASSESSED IF- I HAD A
DIFFERENT MISGUIDED DIFFERENT
UNDERSTANDING AGAIN TRYING TO
LOOK AT YOU AND SPEAKING THE
MICROPHONE. A DIFFERENT
UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THE FINE
WAS FOR AND I DO APOLOGIZE FOR
THAT- THANK YOU FOR ANSWERING
IT. THANK YOU. CENTER TADO.
THANK YOU BOB BE TO SUPPORT THE
BILL TODAY JUST WANT TO DO I
ALWAYS HAVE JUST FROM
CHALLENGES WITH WITH- YOUR
SUPPORT ANY KIND OF BILL THAT
HAS ANY KIND OF FEES ASSOCIATED
WITH THAT BUT I THINK THAT YOU

FORWARD WHEN APPROPRIATE OKAY
SO THE BILLS BEING MOVED BY
SARTANA PROVE YOU TIME AT
CENTER WINNER. THANK YOU MISTER

VERY COMPLICATED ISSUE IN A LOT
OF WAYS IN THIS IS. EARLY IN
THE PROCESS AND I'M CONFIDENT
AUTHOR WILL HAVE OPEN LINES OF
COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE
OPPONENTS OF THE BILL- AND ALL
ARE ENCOURAGED AND I GO TO
THANK YOU SIR LEYVA. THANK YOU
MISTER CHAIR I TOO WILL BE
SUPPORTING THE BILL TODAY. AND
I KNOW PEOPLE DON'T LIKE FINES
BUT WHAT I TELL PEOPLE OF
THERE'S NO ENFORCEMENT
MECHANISM. THEN IT IS JUST A
SUGGESTION SO IF YOU DON'T
VIOLATE WHAT YOU'RE BEING ASKED
TO DO YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY
ABOUT THE FINE SAID. YOU WON'T
HAVE TO PAY THEM. ENFORCEMENT
MAC MECHANISMS HELP MAKE SURE
PEOPLE DO WHAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED
TO DO. THANK YOU. ARE THERE ANY
OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS
ABOUT THE BILL HANDS UP.
EVERYONE OKAY. RIGHT SO SIR
EGGMAN AT FIRST I WANNA THANK
YOU FOR WORKING WITH MY STAFF-
WE DID NARROW THE BILL TO
HOSPITALS BECAUSE THERE IS THAT
ACCOUNTABILITY THE HOSPITAL HAS
TO REPORT. TO CMS- WE WANT TO
BE SURE WE HAD THAT ELEMENT OF.
SAFETY WITH IT IS NOT JUST SOME
RANDOM PERSON BE ABLE TO
DEMAND. THIS EQUIPMENT TO BILL
REPAIR EQUIPMENT THAT THEY'RE
NOT ACCOUNTABLE FOR- THROUGH
THE HOSPITAL SO I APPRECIATE
DOING THAT. I THINK I AT LEAST
ANALYSIS I THINK IT'S PRETTY
CLEAR SAYING THE FINES APPLY IF
THEY'RE INTENTIONALLY VIOLATING
THIS LAW I THINK IF. THE PEOPLE
NEEDS MORE CLARITY ON THAT I
GUESS I'M SURE YOU'LL WORK WITH
PEOPLE DOWN WE'RE NOT TRYING TO
PLAY GOTCHA. I THINK- DO WE BUT
THERE NEEDS TO BE ENFORCEMENT
MECHANISM- AND- YEAH. I THINK
IT'S AND AGAIN WE'RE WE'RE WE
DO WANT TO TRY TO GIVE PEOPLE
THE TOOLS AT THE SAME TIME
THESE ARE MEDICAL DEVICES SO I
KNOW THAT PERSONALLY OF THAT
THAT THAT'S A SENSITIVE ISSUE-
INSURING THAT IT'S REPAIRED
CORRECTLY- SO- BUT I'D
CERTAINLY SUPPORTING THE BILL
APPRECIATE THAT- YOUR- WORKING
WITH THE COMMITTEE ON MAKING

COLLEAGUES YOU KNOW ONE OF OUR
CONTINUED PRIORITIES IN THIS
LEGISLATURE IS ACCESS TO
TIMELY. AND RELIABLE MENTAL
HEALTH SERVICES PARTICULARLY IN
OUR SCHOOL SETTINGS WE'VE
ESTABLISHED FUNDING
OPPORTUNITIES OVER THE LAST.
FEW YEARS LIKE THE MENTAL
HEALTH STUDENT SERVICES ACT.
SEEKING TO INCENTIVIZE STRONGER
PARTNERSHIPS BETWEEN COUNTIES
AND SCHOOL DISTRICTS TO HELP
ADDRESS THE EXISTING GAPS IN
THAT IN THAT CASE. THROUGH THE
USE OF PROP SIXTY THREE
FUNDING. BUT IT'S CLEAR THAT
MORE NEEDS TO BE DONE AND NEEDS

RECOVER FROM COVERT NINETEEN
OUR STUDENTS DESERVE ACCESS TO
APPROPRIATE SERVICES TO PROMOTE
HEALING. SCHOOLS OF COURSE
SERVICE IMPORTANT FRONTLINE
ACCESS FOR SCREENING FOR
IDENTIFICATION AND IN SOME
CASES FOR DELIVERY OF CARE. BUT
OUR SCHOOLS CANNOT DO IT ALONE
CREATING A MORE ROBUST SYSTEM
FOR IDENTIFICATION INTERVENTION
AND TREATMENT WILL REQUIRE
SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT THROUGH
BOTH THE HEALTH CARE AND
EDUCATION SECTORS. AND FRANKLY
ESTABLISHING MORE EFFICIENT
PARTNERSHIPS FOR THE DELIVERY
OF CARE THIS BILL LEVERAGES
STATE INVESTMENT FOR
SIGNIFICANT FEDERAL RESOURCES
BY ESTABLISHING INCENTIVE
PAYMENTS FOR MEDICARE MANAGED
CARE PLANS TO PROVIDE SCHOOL
BASED MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES.
IN COLLABORATION WITH LOCAL
EDUCATION AUTHORITIES SCHOOL

HEALTH ORGANIZATIONS THE
GOVERNOR'S JANUARY BUDGET
DEDICATES FOUR HUNDRED BILLION
DOLLARS INCLUDING TWO HUNDRED
MILLION DOLLARS OF GENERAL FUND
