OUR WORKFORCE THE NUMBER OF
PEOPLE UNABLE TO ACCESS CARE
WILL CONTINUE TO DROP. PEOPLE
WILL FALL EVEN SICKER AND IN THE
MOST TRAGIC OF CASES PEOPLE WILL
DIE. LEGISLATION IS A CRITICAL

QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FROM
COMMITTEE MEMBERS ON SB NINE
SIXTY FOUR. CENTER GROVE THANK
YOU THANK YOU SIR RIGHT CENTER
WE ARE I DO APPRECIATE YOU
BRINGING THIS BILL FORWARD
REPRESENT A RURAL AREA EVERY
TIME I GO OUT TO TWENTY NINE
PALMS OR- THE BAD CHINA LAKE
NAVAL AIR WARFARE CENTER WHERE
VETERANS ARE VALIANTLY SERVING
OUR COUNTRY- ONE OF THE BIG
ISSUES THEY HAVE. IS- IS THAT
THEY HAVE TO DRIVE THREE HOURS
AND FIVE HOURS DEPENDING ON
WHERE THEY'RE AT. TO LOS ANGELES
TO GET MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES
AND IT'S FIRST COME FIRST SERVE.
AND SO- A LOT OF TIMES THEY
DON'T GET SERVICES. SO MENTAL
HEALTH PROBLEMS ISSUES GOING ON
DRIVE FIVE HOURS SEE A DOCTOR
CAN'T SEE A DOCTOR IF YOU WAITED
ALL DAY. IT'S VERY DIFFICULT SO
I APPLIED YOUR BILL. I DO HAVE A
QUESTION THOUGH- AND I'M NOT
TRYING TO BE DISRESPECTFUL IN
ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM BUT WHY
ARE WE DOING A STUDY WHERE WE
JUST IMPLEMENTING THIS PIECE OF%
LEGISLATION BECAUSE- WE ALL KNOW
WE HEAR IT FROM OUR CONSTITUENTS
THAT WE DESPERATELY. NEED MENTAL
HEALTH SERVICES PROVIDED
SPECIFICALLY AFTER COVE IT AND
EVERYTHING THAT HAS GONE ON THE
LAST TWO YEARS- AND I APPRECIATE
YOUR BILL AT THIS GREAT STEP
FORWARD BUT WHY ARE WE JUST
MAKING THIS. A PIECE LEGISLATION
THAT SAYS WE WILL DO THIS TO YOU
TO BE CLEAR YOU'RE THE ONE I
CHATTED BRIEFLY TALK ABOUT THE
SCOPE OF PRACTICE STUDY. THE
SEATTLE THIS IS A PRACTICE. OF
THE BILL ITSELF IS NOT A STUDY
IT DOES A LOT OF THINGS BUT- MY
UNDERSTANDING IF YOU'RE-
CONCERNED A CONCERN THAT I
SHARE. WITH MILITARY I'M SORRY
EXPANDED ON THAT I APOLOGIZE. SO
THERE IS FOR VETERANS ON THIS
COMMITTEE- FOR VETERANS EACH ONE
OF US HAD NMOS WE SERVED THE
UNITED STATES MILITARY- WE HAVE
THAT SKILL SET- THAT WE LEARN
FROM THE MILITARY WE SHOULD BILL
TRANSFER. TWO CALIPHS. I MEAN
THE OTHER STATES WHY CAN'T WE
JUST MAKE THE VETERANS IT HAD
THE SKILL SET OR CUT OR
INDIVIDUALS WHO COME FROM OTHER
STATES. NOT HAVE TO GO THROUGH
THE ENTIRE CALIFORNIA
REQUIREMENT AGAIN SO WE HAVE
ADDITIONAL HELP YEAH SO- I DO SO
YOUR CONCERNS I UNDERSTAND THAT
WHICH IS A CONCERN I SHARE IS
THAT WE HAVE PEOPLE. WHO HAVE
BEEN TRAINED OUTSIDE OF
CALIFORNIA AND SO IF SOCIAL WORK
OR- OR WHATEVER THE QUESTION
MIGHT BE. WHO ARE TOTALLY
QUALIFIED TO PERFORM SERVICES IN
CALIFORNIA YES SIR BUT BECAUSE
YOU HAVE TO GET. A JOB RE.
TRAINING CERTIFIED AS IF YOU
WERE JUST LIKE COMING OUT OF
COLLEGE FRESH- WITH NO
EXPERIENCE. UNDER CALIFORNIA
LAW- AND I- SHARE THAT. CONCERN
AND THE SCOPE OF PRACTICE STOP.
I'M VERY FIRST OF ALL TO MAKE
SURE THAT PEOPLE WHO ARE LIKE
HERE ARE A TO PROP TO THE FULL.
EXTENT OF THEIR TRAINING AND ARE
NOT BEING LEGALLY RESTRICTED.
FROM PRACTICING IN AREAS THAT
THEY HAVE BEEN FULLY TRAINED TO
PRACTICE AND- AND THEN ALSO TO
LOOK AT- RETIRED. PEOPLE WHO ARE
FROM OUT OF STATE AND ARE THERE
SOME SITUATIONS WHERE WE CAN
HAVE SOMEONE TO SORT OF WAVE AND
WITH MUCH MORE LIMITED-
TRAINING- EXAMINATION BE ABLE
TO. BE CERTIFIED TO PRACTICE
HERE I SUPPORT THAT- AND- AND
THAT'S WHAT THE STUDY WITH THEM
I UNDERSTAND YOU WOULD PREFER
THAT SORT OF A STUDY WE JUST. DO
IT- AND THERE MIGHT RESPONSES TO
FOLD- THERE ARE SOME
COMPLEXITIES ARE ALWAYS GOING TO
BE SOME COMPLEXITIES ABOUT
DIFFERENT. KINDS OF SCOPE IN
MAKING SURE THAT SOMEONE
ACTUALLY DID RECEIVE THE
TRAINING. IN A PARTICULAR AREA
SO- I THINK STUYING IT MAKES
SENSE. BUT ALSO JUST TO BE A
BLIND AS CENTER ROTH KNOWS MORE
THAN MOST- SCOPE OF PRACTICE IS
ALWAYS. ONE OF THE MOST
CONTENTIOUS ISSUE THIS
LEGISLATURE. IF YOU LOOK AT THE
NURSE PRACTITIONER AND- NURSE
PRACTITIONER LEGISLATION IT TOOK
WHAT TEN YEARS YEARS TO GET
THAT. PASSES A HUGE PIPE TO
NURSE PRACTITIONERS AND
PHYSICIANS. AND YEAH IT.
HAPPENED. START DO I AND I STUDY
IT'S GONNA BE MY SMOOTHER THINK
RATHER THAN SOMEONE TO
INTRODUCING A BILL SO I WANTED
THIS SO I SHARE YOUR FRUSTRATION
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT HAPPENED
YESTERDAY IT IS OUTRAGEOUS THAT
PEOPLE AT THE DRIVE FOUR HOURS
AND FIVE HOURS- AND THAT'S WHAT
THIS BILL ALSO DOES FOCUS THIS
WILL BRING RESOURCES I BELIEVE
IN TO RURAL AND LIKE COMMUNITIES
JUST TO LIVE. AREA OR I TO HAVE
EASIER ACCESS TO GUNS ALSO I
SURE YOUR CONCERN BUT THAT'S I
THINK THE NINE AMIK THAT WERE
DEALING WITH I APPRECIATE YOUR-
COMMENTS I APPRECIATE THE
RESPONSE IT IS. YES STUDY BACK
SO THAT WE CAN ADDRESS THE
MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES IN UR
COMMUNITY I APPRECIATE YOU
TAKING THE STEPS TO MOVE FORWARD
I REALLY DO WISH- WE COULD JUST
COME TOGETHER AND NO MATTER
WHO'S BEATING DOWN OUR DOOR STEP
WE CAN MAKE THE RIGHT DECISIONS
FOR CONSTITUENTS AND I KNOW
THAT'S DIFFICULT- DURING THIS
BUILDING BUT I APPRECIATE YOU
DOING. ONE THING JUST TO BE
CLEAR IN TERMS AWAITING IT- YOUR
TO THAT FOR THE SCOPE OF
PRACTICE YEAH. FOR THE OTHER A-
BILL THOSE ARE GOING TO AFFECT.
YOU KNOW JANUARY THIRTY FIRST
ACTUALLY SOONER BECAUSE I THINK.
THIS IS ULTIMATELY CAN BE A LOT
OF BUDGET WORKING CENTER EGGMAN
IS DOING A LOT ABOUT WORK. AS
WELL AND REALLY LEADING ON THE
BUDGET SIDE. AND WE'RE GOING TO
BE SUBMITTING A SIGNIFICANT
BUDGET REQUEST. RELATED TO THIS
BILL AND THE GOVERNOR HAS PUT
MONEY IN THE BUDGET. SO THERE
WILL BE I THINK. I'M ASPECTS OF
THIS BILL THAT ARE LIKELY TO BE.
IN PLACE UPON A SIGNATURE IN THE
BUDGET. THANK YOU SIR THANK YOU
AGAIN. OKAY THANK YOU. NEXTWE
HAVE CENTER RUBIO FOLLOWED BY
CENTER ROCKS AND THEN CENTER
EGGMAN OKAY. THE CHAIR. THANK
YOU MISTER CHAIR I WANT TO THANK
THE AUTHOR FOR BRINGING THIS
FORWARD AS ALREADY MENTIONED
THERE IS A HIGH NEED FOR MENTAL
HEALTH PROFESSIONALS AND YOU
KNOW DUE TO THE CIRCUMSTANCE IN
THE PAST TWO YEARS PIEPER EVEN A
PROFESSION THAT SOCK CLEAR NOT
ONLY IN THAT SPACE EDUCATION AND
OTHER AREAS BUT WE DEFINITELY-
ALREADY HAVE A LOT OF BARRIERS
SAD- THAT WE HAVE THE CONTENT
BUT THEN I THINK THAT. WE HAVE
TO DO BETTER TRAINING COURAGE
PEOPLE TO JOIN THE WORK FORCE OF
WE WANT TO DELIVER THE SERVICES
WE NEED HERE IN CALIFORNIA THEN
WE NEED TO DO BETTER TO
ENCOURAGE THAT OUR FIRST TO COME
FORWARD. WE SHIP FACT THAT DOC.
YOUR THERE'S TO THE COMPANY NINE
OTHER SCOPE OF PRACTICE IS
ALWAYS A CHALLENGE AND SO
GATHERING DATA AND MAKING SURE
THAT. THERE IS A STEADY I THINK
IT'S IMPORTANT SO WHEN YOU DO
GET IT DONE IT'S DONE AND THE
RIGHT WAY SO NOT ONLY DO I WANT.
TO- AS A CO AUTHOR BUT I WANT TO
MOVE FORWARD WHEN APPROPRIATE
THANK YOU. OKAY THE BILL'S BEEN
MOVED BY US AND RUBIO- SENATE
ROTH. THANK YOU MISTER CURE YOU
KNOW IN THE BUSINESS AND
PROFESSIONS COMMITTEE- MY
PREDECESSOR CERTAINLY AND TO THE
EXTENT THAT THE I'VE BEEN ON
BOARD WE HAVE OF FOCUSED A LOT
ON PORTABILITY AND THE ABILITY
TO MOVE FROM STATE TO STATE IN
CALIFORNIA- I PRESUME IN THIS
AREA AS IN MANY AREAS. HAS SOME
HISTORICAL REQUIREMENTS SOME OF
WHICH CAN CONTINUE TO MAKE SENSE
SOME OF WHICH DO NOT. THAT WE
EXPLORE OF INCLUDING- THE
REQUIREMENT TO PERFECT YOUR
PRINT CHECKS AND MANY OF THESE
HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONS AND
UNFORTUNATELY IN CALIFORNIA-
ELECTRONIC- LESSCANCER NOT OF.
ACCEPTABLE IF YOU'RE COMING IN
FROM OUT OF STATE YOU FREQUENTLY
HAVE TO DO A HARD CARD WITH ALL
THE PROBLEMS THAT. ARE
FINGERPRINT CARD CAUSES. I WAS
NOT PARTICULARLY AND
SPECIFICALLY AWARE OF SOME OF
THESE ISSUES BUT WE DO NOT HAVE
TO WAIT A YEAR OR TWO TO ADDRESS
THE ISSUES WE HAVE A- SPENDING
BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONS DO WE
HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO. TO DO
ONGOING SUNSET REVIEW AND CLEAN
UP SUNSET REVIEW AND- I LOOK
FORWARD TO OBVIOUSLY I SUPPORT
THIS BILL AND I LOOK FORWARD TO
WORKING WITH SENATOR WIENER. TO
TRY AND ADDRESS OF THE MORE
EMERGENT ISSUES- SOONER THAN.
THEN THE COMPLETION OF THE- THE
BADLY NEEDED STUDY SO JUST
WANTED TO SAY THAT WERE ON IT
THÀNH WE'LL TAKE A LOOK AT THE
ISSUE THAT SENATOR LIMÓN REYES
TO. A WHILE AGO WHICH SEEMS- ON
USUAL TO ME SO THANK YOU. ALL
RIGHT THANK YOU- BAKER SIR SIR
THANK YOU THANK YOU AND THANK
YOU VERY MUCH SENATE WINNER FOR
BRINGING THIS FORWARD. I LOOK
FOR TO OUR ON GOING
CONVERSATIONS ABOUT THIS AS YOU
SAY VERY CRITICAL PIECE OF
LEGISLATION AND I THINK WE ALL
ACKNOWLEDGE. THE SEVERITY OF OUR
WORKFORCE CRISIS ESPECIALLY AS
IT RELATES TO BEHAVIORAL HEALTH-
I HAD MY STUFF LOOK REAL QUIK
AT ABOUT THAT ISSUE DID THE BBS
IS VERY DIFFICULT TO WORK WITH
AND- I'VE ALSO. IN ADDITION
SENATOR TRY TO MY TIME BOTH THE
ON BMP. TO DO SOME OF THESE WORK
FORCE ISSUES AND- AND SCOPE
ISSUES ARE DIFFICULT AND
HOPEFULLY THIS HOPEFULLY THE
CRISIS IS SUCH THAT WE CAN ALL.
DECIDE TO WORK COLLABORATIVELY
TOGETHER TO TAKE CAR OF THIS.
AND I THINK I THINK BELIEVE THIS
IS DOUBLE REFERRED BECAUSE I.
ONE OF MY ISSUES IS ALSO MORE%
AROUND THE EDUCATIONAL COMPONENT
OF IT- ESPECIALLY FOR SOCIAL
WORK WE HAVE A- A NATIONAL. TO
EVERY EVERY SCHOOL WAIT WHEN MSW
IS MORE VALUABLE SOMEONE SAY.
THE OTHER DEGREES BECAUSE OF
YOUR DEGREE IN COUNSELING
SOMETHING ELSE NO ONE KNOWS WHAT
THAT IS. IF YOU GET AN MSW THAT
AROUND THE WORLD PEOPLE KNOW
WHAT THAT IS AND THERE'S
ESTABLISH CRITERIA NO MATTER
WHAT STATE YOU'RE IN IF YOU'RE
IN. YOUR EUROPE. OR FEAR IN.
MINNESOTA OR CALIFORNIA. THERE'S
A CERTAIN CRITERIA THAT MUST BE
MET BE A LICENSED. OR
ACCREDITED. PROGRAM SO THERE
SHOULDN'T BE ANY ISSUES WITH.
PORTABILITY ACROSS. THE STATE
SET THERE IS- BUT ONE OF THE
THINGS I THINK WE REALLY NEED TO
FOCUS ON. IS THIS ISSUE OF OUR
POLICIES PUSHING FOR MORE
CALIFORNIA STUDENTS IN OUR
CALIFORNIA SCHOOLS WHICH IS
INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT BUT I
BELIEVE WHAT HAS HAPPENED IS A
LOT OF OUR GRADUATE PROGRAMS
HAVE REDUCED BECAUSE THEY'RE
MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE TO ADMIT.
AND OUR BACHELOR'S PROGRAM SOME
GROUND. WHICH ISN'T MUCH LESS
EXPENSIVE SO. IN MY IN MY SMALL
AMOUNT OF RESEARCH I'VE DONE ON
IT SCHOOL THAT USED TO ADMIT
COHORTS OF THREE HUNDRED MSW ARE
NOW ADMITTING COURTS ONE HUNDRED
. BASHERS PROGRAMS HAVE TRIPLED
IN SIZES AND SO THEN YOU HAVE
ALL THESE BACHELORS LEVEL PEOPLE
WHO DON'T HAVE A MASTER'S DEGREE
PROGRAM TO GO TO. AND THEY END
UP GOING SOMEWHERE ONLINE PAYING
A LOT OF MONEY GETTING INTO
OFTENTIMES AND NOT BEING ABLE TO
GET THEIR LICENSE. AND CREATING
A LOT MORE ISSUES SO IT REALLY I
THINK THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME
COORDINATION BETWEEN THE C.
ISSUES IN THE UC'S. ON THE SLOTS
THAT ARE GOING TO BE AVAILABLE
FOR THE STUDENTS. THANK YOU IF I
COULD JUST SAY- YOU KNOW CENTER
A MAN SPECIFIC ON HIS BILL TO I
KNOW IT'S ALSO BUDGET ISSUE. IF
THERE ARE SPECIFIC THOUGHTS YOU
HAVE ABOUT HOW WE CAN STRENGTHEN
THE INTENT OF THIS BILL IS THAT
MORE M. S. W.'S- BUT IF THEY'RE
WAYS WE CAN STRENGTHEN THE IN
THE BILL WE REALLY WALK. YOUR
THE SPACE FOR ONE OF THE THINGS
THAT WE ALWAYS NEED IN ORDER FOR
SOMEONE TO GET LICENSE THEY HAVE
TO HAVE POSTGRADUATE. SUPERVISED
HOURS. AND SO THAT IS ONE OF THE
ISSUES OF A LOT OF NONPROFITS
AREN'T ABLE TO HIRE SUPERVISE
THAT SOMEONE WITH A LICENSE. WHO
CAN SUPERVISED. PEOPLE ALL KINDS
OF NONPROFITS BUT WHAT WOMAN
SHELTERS EVERYWHERE SO. IT MIGHT
JUST BE ANOTHER COMPONENT WE
THINK ABOUT. LIKE A UNIT OF
SUPERVISORS REVIEW JUST. ONE
SUPER. CARE FOR FOLKS. THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR
COMMENTS. C. NINE- SO SIR WIENER
PRESHEAF BRAIN IS BUILT ITS-
QUITE CALM FOR ACTUALLY TO OF

TO. OF MIND. NOT JUST HERE BUT
THROUGHOUT THE STATE AND THE
FACT THAT YOU KNOW. THAT THEIR
PEOPLE EVEN IN ARE REALLY
URBANIZED AREAS THAT MADE YOU
WANT TO SEE A THERAPIST. AND
STRUGGLE TO FIND A THERAPIST WHO
HAS AVAILABLE SLOTS EVEN IF THE
PERSON CAN PAY. A LOT AND DON'T
TAKE INSURANCE BECAUSE INSURANCE
DOESN'T REIMBURSE THE WAY SHOULD
JUST FINDING SOMEONE PURCHASE
BASIC NOT FOR CRISIS CARE JUST
FOR BASIC. HAVING SOME THE PRESS
. CITING TALK TO SOMEONE- IT IS
A REALLY- A HUGE AND I'M SO.
EVEN ON SIDE WE WERE. A MENTAL
HEALTH CRISIS OR EXPERIENCING I
AM HAPPY THAT SOCIETY AT LARGE

COMMITTEE MEMBER HAVE A QUESTION
OR COMMENT. MISS GROVE PLEASE GO
AHEAD. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I DO
HAVE A COUPLE COMMENTS OR HAVE A
COMMENT THAT I HAVE SOME
QUESTIONS FIRST I WOULD ACTUALLY
LIKE TO BRING- THE GOOD DOCTOR
WHO LED THE TESTIMONY UP TO THE
pOF QUESTIONS. AND YOU WERE GOING
TO TALK ABOUT LONG COATED AB. IN
YOUR TIME WAS CUT OFF BECAUSE I
HEARD YOU SAY LONG COVERT IN THE
MISS MELINDA'S BECAUSE OF THE
TIME CONSTRAINTS THE COMMITTEE
CAN YOU ELABORATE ON WHAT YOU'RE
GONNA SAY. TO SET A CURIOSITY.
SURE I'M HAPPY IT. IS ON. YES
SIR. I'M I'M HAPPY TO TAKE
FURTHER QUESTIONS AS WELL BUT I
MEAN I'LL KEEP IT BRIEF I THINK
THERE ARE A LOT OF PARENTS
AROUND THIS COUNTRY MAYBE AROUND
THE WORLD WHO ARE. UNFAIRLY
TERRORIZED- BY CERTAIN REPORTS
ABOUT WHAT LONG COVE IT IS WHAT
IT REPRESENTS. AND I THINK MANY
PEOPLE WHO HAVE CHOSEN TO TAKE
THE VACCINE AND PROTECT
THEMSELVES OR LOW RISK OR HAVE
PRIOR INFECTION ARE STILL
CONCERNED ABOUT THIS POSSIBILITY
AND I THINK IT'S GOOD PUBLIC
HEALTH COMMUNICATION TO FOCUS ON
THE DATA. AND FOCUS ON NOT
SCARING PEOPLE THAT REASSURING
THEM WITH REASSURING DATA WE
HAVE AND- NOW I CAN GO TO THE
LIST BUT THERE LARGE DATASETS
FROM DENMARK ENGLAND- THE
NETHERLANDS FRANCE THAT
BASICALLY SHOW FOR THE LARGE
PART. DIMS RESOLVE- FOR PEOPLE
WHO HAVE SYMPTOMS THE SYMPTOMS
THAT ARE MOST CONSISTENTLY SEEN.
THAT ARE SIGNIFICANTLY DIFFERENT
TO CONTROL GROUPS AND CONTROL
GROUPS THAT NEVER TESTED
POSITIVE FOR SARS COMMITTEE
MEETING NEVER TESTED POSITIVE
FOR COVE IT. IS ANOSMIA MEANING
LACK OF SMALL WHICH CAN PERSIST
FOR A FEW MONTHS AND WE KNOW
THAT'S BECAUSE THE VIRUS TARGETS
SOME OF THOSE RECEPTORS. BUT
EVEN THAT RESOLVES. AND IT'S
VERY REASSURING AND WHAT'S MORE
IMPORTANT IS THAT. YOU KNOW
SINCE TWENTY TWENTY WE'VE HAD.
MENDIS AWARENESS OF VIRAL
ILLNESS AS IF IT WASN'T PRESENT.
PRIOR TO TWENTY TWENTY UNIT HAS
BEEN AND WE HAVE SOME VERY GOOD
DATA FROM- THE OTHER ONES IN
PARTICULAR WAVE MIND ELECTRONIC
HEALTH RECORD DATA TO LOOK AT.
WHAT IS THE PERSISTENCE OF
SYMPTOMS AFTER WALKER IDEA VIRAL
ILLNESSES THAT WE FACE ALL THE
TIME SUCH AS INFLUENZA. AND IT'S
ABOUT THE SAME. AND THEY LOOKED
AT OVER EIGHTY MILLION
ELECTRONIC RECORDS AND THEY
LOOKED AT TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY
FOUR THOUSAND CALL THE PATIENTS
IN COMPARISON. AND SENT THANK
YOU. I KNOW THERE'S SOME OTHER
QUESTIONS THAT I HAD- FOR YOU
BUT YOU AS SPECIFICALLY ADDRESS
THAT ONE FOR ME I KNOW IT WAS
THAT CURIOUS ABOUT THE ACTUAL
SURVEY. THAT WAS CITED BY DR
PANS GROUP. IT WAS ALSO VERY
INTERESTED IN YOUR COMMENT- THAT
YOU MADE THAT YOU HAVE A- NO
WHAT WAS THE EXACT WORD YOU USE
YOU HAVE- NO COMPELLING. IN THIS
YOUR BOARD CERTIFIED PHYSICIAN
CORRECT REPORTS CERTIFIED
EMERGENCY PHYSICIAN I'VE BEEN
PRACTICING FOR MORE THAN. TWENTY
ONE YEARS NOW OKAY I APPRECIATE
THAT THANK YOU SIR VERY MUCH FOR
YOUR COMMENTS. I DO HAVE I'M
JUST A STATEMENT THAT I'D LIKE
TO MAKE AND I'D LIKE TO ASK THEM
THE AUTHOR AND I'M SORRY CENTER
YOU WANT ME TO COMMENT ON THE
STUDY FOR THE STATUS SERVING- IF
YOU HAVE A BRIEF COMMENT ON THE
STUDY SURVEY THAT WAS BROUGHT
FORTH THEN YES THAT WOULD BE
SOMETHING I'D LIKE YOU TO DO AS
WELL. I DO- YOU KNOW I THINK ONE
OF THE POINTS I WAS TRYING TO
MAKE IS IF YOU LOOK AT THE
PERFORMANCE OF THESE TESTS EVEN
MANAGING TEST WHICH HONESTLY
GOOD LET HOME ALTERNATIVE RATHER
THAN PCR WHICH CAN BE OVERLY
SENSITIVE. IS THAT. GIVEN THE
PERFORMANCE STATISTICS AND WE
CAN GO THROUGH WHAT I MEAN BY
THAT. I THINK THAT'S YOU KNOW
GETTING THE WEEDS. BUT
CALIFORNIA HAD BASICALLY SEVEN
WEEKS WITHIN THE LAST FIFTY TWO
WEEKS WERE FALSE POSITIVES WOULD
HAVE BEEN LOWER THAN TRUE
POSITIVES MEANING FALSE POSITIVE
WOULD BE SITUATIONS WHERE
CHILDREN OTHER PEOPLE WOULD BE
SENT HOME. UNNECESSARILY EVEN
THOUGH THEY WERE NOT TRULY
INFECTED. AND THAT PERIOD OF
TIME WAS ROUGHLY AROUND DECEMBER
TWENTY SECOND I THINK YOU
FEBRUARY SEVENTH I HAVE IN MY
NOTES. BUT THAT'S THE ONLY
PERIOD OF TIME WHERE THE TRUE
POSITIVES WITH X. WOULD HAVE
EXCEEDED THE INAPPROPRIATE
POSITIVE SO TO SPEAK. AND IN THE
STUDY CITED- BY- SOME OF THE
PROPONENTS OF THIS BILL. THEY'RE
TESTING POSITIVITY RATE WAS ZERO
POINT 1% I TOLD YOU THIS WOULD
BREAK IT 7% SEVEN AND A HALF
ACTUALLY. TO BUY THEIR- OWN
SURVEY. A SEVEN HUNDRED AND 50%
DIFFERENTIAL OF FALSE POSITIVES
TO TRUE POSITIVES WOULD HAVE
BEEN PRESENT BY THEIR OWN DATA
NOW THAT'S OFTEN FEBRUARY TWENTY
TWENTY ONE BY THE WAY IT'S NOT
EVEN CURRENT WITH OMICRON WHICH
IS A VERY DIFFERENT SITUATION.
AS ABOUT 50% OF CALIFORNIAN
HOUSEHOLDS FOUND OUT IN THOSE
FOSTER POSITIVES WOULD REQUIRE
KIDS TO BE OUT OF SCHOOL FOR IT
THAT'S CORRECT HAND YOU KNOW THE
I THINK WAS MS VASES DAVE I'M
SORRY SHE'S A PHYSICIAN I DON'T
KNOW WHERE TO TITLE WAS BUT SHE
BROUGHT UP. SOMETHING ABOUT THE
BERKELEY UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT
IN RAVENS WHAT I MEAN I PRACTICE
IN A HOSPITAL THAT'S RECEIVING
FACILITY FOR MANY PATIENTS FROM
RAVENS WITH. SO WHATEVER TESTING
WAS DONE THERE THAT HELPED THEM
GET ACCESS THAT'S WONDERFUL BUT
I SAW A LOT OF FAMILIES IN THE
BILL A LOT OF IN THE PEDIATRIC
ER EXPRESSLY FOR SPECIFICS
PRESLEY FOR THE PURPOSE OF
GETTING TESTS AND- IT DIDN'T
MITIGATE THAT. AND I THINK
WHAT'S INTERESTING TO AND-
BECAUSE YOU BROUGHT UP THE
BERKELEY UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT
ISSUED DAMAGE DONE. IS A FATHER
IN THE DISTRICT TO REACHED OUT
TO ME. AND HIS SON. HE'S
FOURTEEN I WAS PERMISSION TO
REVEAL IS BY THE WAY I HAVE AS
PERMISSION TO SHARE THIS. IN THE
MAIL THIS IS REGARDING THE STUDY
THOUGH SIR BECAUSE NO IT'S NOT
ACTUALLY IT'S REGARDING HIS
PERSONAL EXPERIENCE AND WHAT
HAPPENED WITH HIS PERSONAL RISK
HIS REQUEST FOR INFORMATION TO
THE DISTRICT. AND HIS SON IS A
FOURTEEN YEAR OLD WHO WAS.
ACCIDENT AND WAS STRUCK BY AN
EIGHTEEN YEAR OLD WHO. WAS
STRIKING HIM FOR THE REASON THAT
HE WAS ON VACCINATED. YOU KNOW I
STRONGLY SUPPORT- VACCINATION I
REALLY DO AFFECTED VACCINATIONS. IN THE RIGHT POPULATIONS FOR
SURE. BUT- THE OTHER RING AND
THE VICTORY ALL FOR NO CLEAR
BENEFIT REALLY BOTHERS ME- AS A
PHYSICIAN AND THE CITIZENS AN
APPARENT. AND IN HIS PUBLIC
REQUESTS TO THE BERKELEY SCHOOL
DISTRICT FROM JANUARY FOURTH TO
JANUARY TWENTY EIGHTH FORTY FIVE
OF FIFTY SEVEN OF THE STUDENTS
THAT TESTED POSITIVE IN THE
DISTRICT WERE VACCINATED. THANK
YOU SIR I APPRECIATE THAT THANK
YOU VERY MUCH AGAIN I JUST HAVE
A STATEMENT- THAT I'D LIKE TO
MAKE AN AND- I MEAN ALL OF US
RATE THAT SERVE THE UNITED
STATES MILITARY LIKE I SAID I
THINK THERE'S FOUR OF US MAYBE
FIVE OF US. ALSO BECAUSE I DON'T
REQUIRE I DON'T RECALL BUT TO
THERE'S FOUR OF US DEFINITELY-
WE TOOK THE OATH OF OFFICE TO
SWEAR TO DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION
THE UNITED STATES AGAINST ALL
ENEMIES FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC.
AND WE ALWAYS AS MY COLLEAGUE IN
STOCKTON IS WHISPERING IN MY EAR
WE ALSO TAKE EVERY VACCINE THAT
WAS REQUIRED OF US WHICH WE DID.
UNITED STATES MILITARY. I
REMEMBER GOING THROUGH THAT LINE
I'M SURE JUST LIKE SHE'D. WITH
THOSE OF THIS AIR- BUT- ED THE
CON. WHICH I'M GOING TO DO GO
THROUGH WHICH ALL OF US SHOULD
HAVE. LIKE THERE
ARE OF US ARE THE DAIS IDEA WE
DON'T. BUT THE CONCERT. IS
HIGHEST LAW. IN AND HAS SOME.
KNOWS A BILL OVER. IN THE OF
RIGHTS OR CENTER FOR. RIGHTS
DURING. THE FREEDOM RELIGION
SPEECH. TO AND OTHER THINGS. BUT
THEM. ALL OF OUR CHILDREN ARE
PROTECTED. FOR EQUAL OPPORTUNITY
IN EDUCATION NO MATTER WHAT
THEIR RACE ETHNIC BACKGROUND
RELIGION SEX. OR WHETHER THEY'RE
RICH OR POOR CITIZEN AND
NONCITIZEN. AND WHEN YOU GET THE
DEFINITION BACKGROUND BASED ON
THE CONSTITUTION. IT SAYS ANY
BACKGROUND. AND IT'S NOT JUST.
IT IN THE BACKGROUND AS AND A
DEFINITION THERE. THAT ANY ANY
PERSON AND THEY HAVE TO HAVE
EQUAL OPPORTUNITY AND ACCESS TO
THE EDUCATION SYSTEM THAT THE
PUBLIC EDUCATION SYSTEM PROVIDED
BY THE GOVERNMENT. OR THE STATE.
EXIST AND- TO LIMIT THEIR
ABILITY TO BE ABLE TO GO TO
SCHOOL OR DO ANYTHING UNLESS
THEY COMPLY WITH RULES. THAT ARE
SET FORTH BY THIS LEGISLATIVE
BODY. IS A VIOLATION OF THE
CONSTITUTION EVERY YEAR THAT WE
GET ELECTED WE SWEAR TO DEFEND
THE CONSTITUTION- THE OTHER
THING IS THAT. THESE PARENTS
SHOULD NOT HAVE TO CO PARENT
WITH GOVERNMENT. THEY SHOULD NOT
HAVE TO AND COMPLY WITH THIS IF
YOU HAVE IF YOU WANT AND YOU'VE
DONE THE RESEARCH AND YOU WANT
YOUR CHILD TO BE FULLY
VACCINATED AND BOOSTED. THAT IS
YOUR RIGHT AND NO ONE OUT IN THE
HALLWAY SHOULD EVER SAY ANYTHING
TO YOU ABOUT IT. BUT IF YOU
WORRY PARENT THAT HAS CONCERNS
ABOUT THE VACCINE OR ANY VACCINE
OR ANYTHING INJECTED IN YOUR
CHILD THEN YOU HAVE EVERY RIGHT.
TO REPRESENT THE INTEREST OF
YOUR CHILD IT'S YOUR CHILD AND
SO I STRONGLY OPPOSE THIS PIECE
OF LEGISLATION AND ANY OTHER
LEGISLATION THAT COMES FORWARD.
AND I WOULD RESPECTFULLY ASK THE
AUTHOR TO- YOU KNOW ADDRESS OR
LISTEN TO THE PARENTS THAT HAVE
HUGE CONCERNS AND I THINK HE
DOES BUT TO RESPECT. THEIR
RIGHTS JUST AS WHEN THEY CAME
INTO THIS BUILDING- SOME OF THE
THINGS THEY SAY ABOUT YOU WERE
ALLOWED THIS. APPETITE AS WELL
THEY SHOULD. YOUR OPINION AND
YOUR RIGHTS JUST AS MUCH AS- SIX
BREAK IT RESPECT THEIR OPINIONS
AND THEIR RIGHTS- SO THANK YOU.
THANK YOU SENATOR GROVE- SENATOR
WIENER. THANK YOU THANK YOU VERY
MUCH- MADAM BASED HERE I WANT TO
THANK THE- CHAIRS- CENTER PAN
FOR BRINGING THIS BILL FORWARD
AND- HAPPENED A CO AUTHOR OF
THAT I WANT TO THANK CENTER AND
FOR BEING AN EXTRAORDINARY
LEADER- IN PUBLIC HEALTH- AND
KEEPING OUR COMMUNITY HEALTHY-
AND SAFE AND HE'S BEEN THE
SUBJECT OF. A BRUTAL PERSONAL
ATTACKS INCLUDING PHYSICAL
ASSAULTS- AND HE KEEPS DOING IT
YOU COULD BE DOING A LOT OF
OTHER THINGS AND KEEPS DOING
THIS. FIVE HE CAN ABOUT THIS
COMMUNITY ANY TEARS ABOUT THE
FORTY MILLION RESIDENTS THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA SO- CENTER
POUND THANK YOU FOR. FOR YOUR
LEADERSHIP I SUPPORT THIS BILL-
AND I WILL SAY I REPRESENT A
HUGE NUMBER OF OUR PARENTS. IN
MY UNITY WHO. THEY WANT THEIR
KIDS TO BE SAFE AND HEALTHY AT
SCHOOL- AND THEY WANT. TO HAVE
AS MUCH CONFIDENCE AS POSSIBLE-
BECAUSE THEY WANT THEIR KIDS
BACK IN SCHOOL AND I'VE- BEEN A
STRONG SUPPORTER OF KEEPING THE
SCHOOLS OPEN. ORANGE WANT KIDS
PHYSICALLY IN SCHOOL- AND THEY
WANT THEM PHYSICALLY AND TO BE
SAFE- AND TESTING AS PART OF
KEEPING OUR SCHOOLS SAFE- YES
KIDS ARE AT LOWER RISK THAN
ADULTS WHEN IT COMES TO CURB IT
BUT THERE ARE KIDS WHO DO GET
VERY SICK AND HE GOT
HOSPITALIZED EVEN DIE FROM CODE
AND THEY CAN THEN BRING CLOSER
TO HOME. TO A PARENT OR
GRANDPARENT WHO MAY BE MORE
RISK- AND SO TESTING IS A KEY
PART OF ANY PUBLIC HEALTH
STRATEGY- YOU KNOW WE ARE IN A
BETTER PLACE RIGHT NOW WITH CODE
THAT WE WERE A YEAR OR YEAR AND
A HALF AGO THAT'S ABSOLUTELY THE
CASE. BUT WE ARE STILL IN A
PANDEMIC AND YOU CAN'T COMPARE-
THIS- THIS VIRUS JUST LIKE THE
COMMON COLD- THIS IS VERY
DANGEROUS- FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE-
IN TESTING AS PART OF ANY SMART
PUBLIC HEALTH- STRATEGY SO I.
WILL MOVE THE BILL. THANK YOU
SENATOR WINNER DO WE HAVE ANYONE
ELSE WHO WISHES TO SPEAK FROM
THE COMMITTEE SENATOR EGGMAN
PLEASE GO AHEAD THANK YOU VERY
MUCH. A DOCTOR PAN. SO THERE WAS
A LOT. LOT OF COMMENTS WILL HURT
AND WE'VE BEEN WE'VE- IS NOT
THIS OUR FIRST TIME- WITH THIS
ISSUE. SO WE'VE HEARD A LOT OF
THINGS IN. AND I FOR ONE AM NOT
A PART OF ANY SECRET SOCIETY NOR
NOR AM I FOR DINAMIC TESTING
FROM CHINA SO. TO SAY THAT
HOWEVER CAN YOU TELL ME JUST ONE
MORE TIME BECAUSE I READ THIS
BILL AND I LOOK AT THE
AMENDMENTS. AND IT LOOKS TO ME
LIKE THE STATE DEPARTMENT OF
PUBLIC HEALTH. IT'S GOING TO
SUPPORT SCHOOLS. AND MAKE SURE
THAT THE TESTING THAT PEOPLE ARE
USING IS- HIS STUDENTS TO THE
SCHOOLS THEMSELVES DON'T HAVE TO
DO THE ACTUAL STEP. UP HERE
CURING VENDORS OF DOING ALL THAT
THEMSELVES THIS IS TO MAKE IT
EASIER FOR SCHOOLS TO BE ABLE TO
STAY OPEN THE TEACHER CHILDREN.
BUT I THINK MAYBE MY- COLLEAGUES
FROM TO THE CALIFORNIA HAS
CHILDREN IN. SCHOOL BUT I EXPECT
I AM I AM SOMEONE WHO DIES WHO
AS A CHILD STILL IN THE CASE
TWELVE. AND HAVE BEEN DEALING
WITH THIS- IN THE END I WOULD
SAY A LOT OF TIMES IT'S YOU KNOW
YOU'VE HEARD A LOT FOR A LOT
FROM PEOPLE TO HELP US ALL LEAVE
IT RIGHT THERE. BUT CAN YOU IS
IT IS THIS SOME KIND OF.
SOMETHING IS GOING TO GO IN. AND
BE TESTING CHILDREN EVERY DAY.
TAKING THEM OUT OF SCHOOL
BECAUSE IT LOOKS TO ME. LIKE
IT'S TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE
PLANS IN PLACE FOR PUBLIC HEALTH
. SO OUR PUBLIC EDUCATION
SYSTEMS CAN STAY OPEN. I CAN USE
CAN YOU SPEAK TO THAT FOR ME.
THANK YOU CENTER EGGMAN FOR THAT
QUESTION REALLY APPRECIATE
THAT'S BECAUSE I THINK THERE'S A
LOT BEING SAID ABOUT THE BILL
THAT ISN'T ACTUALLY IN THE BILL.
SO WHAT THE BILL CALLS FOR IS
THE COST FOR. EACH SCHOOL
DISTRICT AND OTHER ELECTRICAL
PRODUCTS OVER TO HAVE A TESTING
PLAN AND ACTUALLY- WORK WITH THE
PUBLIC HEALTH WHICH BY THE WAY
WILL BE PROVIDING. ADVICE
SUPPORT RIGHT HE SAID- WE WANTS-
DEFINING SUPPORTIVE SERVICES
INCLUDING TAX ASSISTANCE.
SUPPORT GUIDANCE MONITORING
EVALUATION. XIN SO THE IDEA IS
THAT AND ALSO IT'S- DEPENDING ON
GOING ON IN THE APARTMENT SO
BRING NOW WE'RE LOW BIT A LOT
FOR HALF WE DON'T NEED TO TEST
THIS MUCH WHEN THE CASE. GO UP.
WE NEED TO MORE BECAUSE ULTIMATE
WE WANT TO KEEP. KIDS SAFE IN
SCHOOL IT ALSO PARENTS WANT TO
KNOW. I MEAN THINK ABOUT IT THIS
I MEAN I HAVE CHILDREN IN SCHOOL
MANY OF YOU HAVE CHILDREN IN
SCHOOL- YOU'RE READY GAME THAT
NO SAYING SOMEONE IN THIS CLASS
HAD HEAD LICE RIGHT- BECAUSE
PARENTS WANT TO KNOW NOW HEAD
LICE IS A DEADLY DISEASE. BUT
YEAH SO WHAT'S AND- IS THAT
THERE ARE FAMILIES- THEIR
CHILDREN IN SCHOOL WHO ARE MORE
VULNERABLE TO THE DISEASE. MAY
HAVE DIABETES ASTHMA OTHER
CONDITIONS. THEY MAY HAVE THEY
THEY MAY BE GOING HOME TO A
HOUSEHOLD. AND SO WHERE SOMEONE
MAY BE AT HIGH RISK OF COVERAGE.
SO AGAIN. THIS IS ABOUT
TRANSPARENCY FOR PARENTS THOSE
TWO BECAUSE PARENTS DON'T WANT
THEIR POWER IN FACT. AND KNOW
ABOUT IT. HOME AND THE
POTENTIALLY PUT SOMEONE ELSE IN
DANGER SO. HELPS ENSURE THAT.
APPLICANTS CAN FORM. CASE THEIR
CHOPS SPOKE. TESTING ALLOWS US
TO KNOW WHERE WE'RE GOING. AND
IN TERMS OF THE DISEASE
OUTBREAKS SCHOOL BECAUSE WHAT WE
DON'T WANT TO DO IS. WITHOUT
TESTING IT'S KIND OF LIKE YOU
DON'T. GOING TO GET THIS TEST IS
. BASED ON THE CONDITIONS GOING
ON AND ALSO TO BE SURE THAT- YOU
KNOW WE'RE NOT LOOKING AT DOING
EXCEPT. HE HAD. LEVEL THAT'S
WHAT. WHY PROVIDE A GUIDANCE BUT
ALSO OTHER PART OF IT IS SOME
SAID WELL THIS IS ONLY. WELL
ACTUALLY PART OF THE IS ABOUT
FUNDING APPROPRIATELY OF TESTS
AT SCHOOL SO. YOU KNOW THERE IS
A BUT WE WON'T BE SCHOOL ARE
ABLE DO THE- IS WELL AS WELL. AS
AND- IN SO THAT'S WHAT THIS BILL
IS REALLY ABOUT ABOUT SUPPORTING
OUR SCHOOLS. TO THE SCHOOL
DISTRICTS CAN KEEP THEIR
CHILDREN AT SCHOOL SAFE. TO KEEP
SCHOOLS OPEN WE WANT SCHOOLS
CLOSING WOULD LIKE IN PERSON
LEARNING AND ALSO- WE ARE BE
SURE FORTY PARENTS WHO ARE
PAYING IT'S A SCHOOL THE- KNOW.
THAT THE OF. YOU NEED. DON'T
HELP BOOKS. THEIR TRUCK AS WELL
. THIS DOESN'T THIS BILL IS NOT
TO SAY EVERY CHILD IS TO GET TO
IS GONNA SAY IF SOMETHING AT
THIS THE APPROPRIATE P. WILL BE
A PROTOCOL ABOUT WHAT WILL
HAPPEN AND HELP PARENTS WILL BE
NOTIFIED SO YOU SEE COOL THIS IT
CALLED AND BEND IT WILL. AND IT
WILL HAVE TESTING PLANNED-
REQUIRING TO HAVE A TESTING PLAY
AND ALL GET ASSISTANCE THE PART
PUBLIC HEALTH- AND THIS TESTING
PLAN SUCH BE- CONSISTENT WITH
PUBLIC HEALTH GUIDELINES.
CORRECT. SENATOR LEYVA GO HEAD.
THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR. I JUST
WANT TO CLARIFY BECAUSE I HEARD
ONE OF MY COLLEAGUES TALKING
ABOUT VACCINES AND BEING
REQUIRED TO GET VACCINATED. THIS
BILL DOESN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO
WITH GETTING VACCINATED CORRECT
NO THIS HAS TO DO WITH HAVING.
AT YOUR MEN THAT. THE SCHOOL
DISTRICT DEVELOP AND SELLS THIS
IS ACTUALLY. SILENT ON ANY
REQUIREMENTS FOR VACCINATION-
FOR KOBE IN SCHOOLS THANK YOU
AND THEN I WAS READING THE
SUMMARY HERE AND IT SAYS
REQUIRES A CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT
OF PUBLIC. CDPH TO CONTINUE.
ADMINISTERING SO THIS IS NOT
EVEN A NEW PROGRAM THAT IS
SOMETHING THAT'S ALREADY BEEN
HAPPENING AT OUR SCHOOLS. OKAY
JUST WANNA MAKE SURE IT'S CLEAR
THAT. THEY'RE NOT JUST ON I
UNDERSTAND THE OPPOSITION TO
BEING TESTED I MEAN WE'VE BEEN
TESTING TWICE A WEEK HERE IN THE
SENATE FOR ABOUT TWO AND A HALF
YEARS. I AM NOT AWARE OF ANY ONE
WHO HAS HAD A FALSE POSITIVE.
AND IT JUST HELPS US KNOW WHAT
IS HAPPENING WHEN- SOMEONE OF MY
GRANDDAUGHTER'S PRESCHOOL TESTED
POSITIVE. THEY CALLED ALL THE
PARENTS TO LET THEM KNOW. PEOPLE
JUST WANT TO KNOW I DON'T THINK
THERE'S ANYTHING WRONG WITH
PEOPLE BEING TESTED AND PEOPLE
HAVING KNOWLEDGE. SO I LOOK
FORWARD TO VOTING ON THE BILL.
OKAY THANK YOU SENATOR ROTH GO
AHEAD PLEASE IS THE QUICKER
QUESTION I WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT I'M CLEAR. SO ARE WE
SETTING THE RULES SOMEBODY USE
THE TERM THE PHRASE RULES AND I
WANT TO MAKE SURE I'M CLEAR WE
SETTING THE RULES FOR WHEN
TESTING OCCURS OR IF TESTING
OCCURS OR IS SOME OTHER ENTITIES
SUCH AS THE CDC OR THE
CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF. PUBLIC
HEALTH EXPAND SO WE ARE ASKING
THAT EACH SCHOOL DISTRICT AND
THE OTHER ENTITIES SO THERE'S
IT'S LIKE THEY HAVE TO GO FOR
ITS ADDRESS- ACTUALLY DEVELOPED
A TEST YOU KNOW HAVE A TESTING
PLANNED SO THEY NEED TO HAVE ONE
THEY CAN'T JUST NOT HAVE A PLAN
AT ALL IN THAT PLAN. TO BE
CONSISTENT WITH THE CALIFORNIA
DEPARTMENT OF THE HEALTH
GUIDELINES AND OF COURSE WON THE
DEPARTMENT TO PROVIDE TECHNICAL
ASSISTANCE AND SUPPORT TO SCHOOL
DISTRICTS AND THE OTHER ENTITIES
LAW SCHOOL OF SITUATIONS
ETCETERA TO SEE SEVEN IN TERMS
OF BEING ABLE TO IMPLEMENT THAT
PLAN SO IF THE CALIFORNIA
DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH CAN
ANALYZING RECESSING THE CURRENT
IN THIS CASE COVERT. NINETEEN
RATE LEVEL WHATEVER THAT. HEALTH
RELATED TO IS. DETERMINES THAT
NO TESTING. IS REQUIRED IN THE
K. THROUGH TWELVE OPERATION IN
CALIFORNIA. DOES THAT MEAN A LOT
OF- LOCAL EDUCATIONAL THIRTY A
SCHOOL DISTRICT WOULD NOT HAVE
TO- MINUTES TESTING PLAN. YES IF
WE IF THAT TURNS OUT WE ARE ABLE
TO GET THE CASE RATE OF COATED
LOW ENOUGH- THEN- TESTING MAY BE
UNNECESSARY AND- THAT'S- AND
THAT MAY BE THE RECOMMENDATION
CORRECT AND THAT'S WITHIN THE
PURVIEW OF THE- CALIFORNIA
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH. NOT
THIS LEGISLATIVE BODY THAT'S
CORRECT YES THANK YOU. OKAY I
THINK THAT'S EVERYONE NOW SO IT
IS MY TURN- SO IT LOOKS TO ME AS
THOUGH IT DOES. THE BILL DOES
REQUIRE THAT A PLAN IS IN PLACE
AND THAT TESTING- TAKE PLACE SO. OKAY CALIFORNIA NATIONWIDE.
AND I THINK WE HAVE 12% OF THE
STUDENTS IN THE COUNTRY AND WE
ONLY HAD 1% OF A SCHOOL CLOSURES
BECAUSE OF COPING. SO THAT SEEMS
A BIT DISPROPORTIONATE AND I
THINK WHAT WE HAVE SEEN IN THE
DATA HAS SHOWN THAT- THESE HOME
TESTS. AREN'T ALWAYS- AS
EFFECTIVE AS WE WOULD LIKE AND I
HAVE A PERSONAL EXPERIENCE WITH
THAT AS DO OTHER MEMBERS OF MY
FAMILY- THE HOME TESTS JUST.
THEY'RE JUST NOT AS EFFECTIVE
YOU CAN HAVE CODED AND THEN YOU
KNOW IT DOESN'T SHOW POSITIVE
FOR FIVE DAYS SO. REALLY WHAT
ARE WE MITIGATING IF A STUDENT
STATE TEST NEGATIVE- BUT
ACTUALLY HAS COVE AND INCOMES TO
SCHOOL ANYWAY- NOT TO MENTION
THE FACT THAT. THE FOCUS IS ON
ON KIDS FOR TESTING THEM BUT
WHAT WE'RE NOT TAKING INTO
ACCOUNT HIS. THE OTHER MEMBERS
OF THEIR FAMILY THEIR PARENTS
ARE PERHAPS THEIR OLDER SIBLINGS
OR GRANDPARENTS TO LIVE WITH
THEM WHO ARE GOING OUT IN IN
BEING IN A PUBLIC SETTING AND
PERHAPS YOU KNOW THEY'RE
BRINGING AND HOW WE'D I DON'T
THINK THAT WE CAN PINPOINT- THAT
THAT. INFECTION NECESSARILY TOOK
PLACE AT THE SCHOOL NOT TO
MENTION. AS SYMPTOMATIC TESTING
OF STUDENTS. WE HAVE SEEN JUST.
REALLY DOESN'T PROVIDE ANY
MITIGATING EFFECT I MEAN THAT'S
THAT'S DATA WE HAVE. THE- ON
HERE. OKAY SO THE- THERE IS A
COMPANY THE COLOR COMPANY I
THINK IT'S CALLED THEY DID A
HUNDRED AND EIGHTY THOUSAND
RAPID TEST MUCH LIKE THE ONES
THAT WE TAKE LEGISLATORS EVERY
SUNDAY BEFORE WE COME UP HERE TO
SACRAMENTO AND THEN WE TAKE
ANOTHER ONE- ON WEDNESDAYS THEY
DID HUNDRED EIGHTY THOUSAND OF
THESE RAPID TESTS- ONLY SIX
HUNDRED AND TWENTY THREE OF
THOSE ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY
THOUSAND TEST- SIX HUNDRED
TWENTY THREE OF THEM SHOWED
POSITIVE. OF THE 600-233-0080
FIVE OF THEM ONE SEEDED A
FURTHER PCR TEST WHICH IS THE
GOLD STANDARD ONLY THREE HUNDRED
EIGHTY FIVE OF THEM- I'M SORRY
EXCUSE ME THREE HUNDRED EIGHTY
FIVE OF THEM TURNED OUT TO BE
NEGATIVE THEY DIDN'T HAVE
COVERAGE. SO I MEAN THAT'S NOT
HYPERBOLE THAT'S JUST THE FACT
THAT THESE TESTS ARE JUST NOT
1100% ACTIVE- ACCURATE. IN THE
ANALYSIS THAT'S OUT THERE
SUGGEST THAT THESE TESTS ARE
MISSING ABOUT A THIRD OF THOSE
WHO ARE INFECTED WITH THIS VIRUS
IN KIDS AT THIRD SO WHAT'S
HAPPENING IS AND I'VE SEEN IN MY
OWN KIDS- SCHOOLS BECAUSE I DO
STILL HAVE CHILDREN IN SCHOOL
MYSELF. OR MY OWN CHILD GOT SENT
HOME BECAUSE HE COST IT'S COOL.
LEADING TO A TEST AND SO HE HAD
A QUARANTINE AND THEN THERE WERE
SOMEONE ELSE AT SCHOOL HAD
QUARANTINE. BECAUSE THERE IS A
POSITIVE TEST IN TURNS OUT THAT
STUDENT DID NOT HAVE CODED SO
NOW THEY'VE MISSED EVEN MORE
INSTRUCTION AND TO ME IT'S- TO
THE POINT F ABSURDITY NOW WHAT
WE'RE DOING TODAY IS TO THESE
KIDS YOU CANNOT KEEP REMOVING
THEM FROM THE CLASSROOM
ENVIRONMENT AFTER WHERE HE DID
THAT TO THEM FOR MORE THAN A
YEAR AND EXPECT THEM TO BE
LEARNING IN A WAY THAT'S GOING
TO HELP THEM SUCCEED AND THRIVE
AND BE ABLE TO PASS THE TESTING
GOING TO WHATEVER IT IS THEY
GOING TO AFTER HIGH SCHOOL- IT.
YOU KNOW I GET IT WE ALL WANT TO
BE SAFE FROM CALVIN WE DO BUT
IT'S THIS OBSESSION WITH
FOCUSING ON KIDS I JUST THINK
NEEDS TO STOP- NOT TO MENTION. I
GUESS THE ONE THING WE DIDN'T
TALK ABOUT WAS. YOU KNOW WHEN
THESE KIDS ARE REMOVED FROM THE
SCHOOL BECAUSE THEY HAVE TESTED
POSITIVE IN MAYBE IT'S A FALSE
POSITIVE MAYBE IT'S AN ACTUAL
POSITIVE OR THEY'VE BEEN EXPOSED
TO SOMEBODY IN THE CLASSROOM AND
SO THEY DECIDE THIS. JOHN HAS TO
QUARANTINE. WHY IS THERE NO
FOCUSED ON WHAT THAT CHILD IS
DOING WHEN THEY'RE NOT IN THE
CLASSROOM. BECAUSE THEIR PARENTS
ARE PROBABLY HOPEFULLY WORKING-
WHY NO FOCUS ON THAT WHAT'S
HAPPENING WITH THAT CHILD
BECAUSE WE HAVE SEEN THE DAMAGE
THAT HAS BEEN DONE
PSYCHOLOGICALLY TO THESE KIDS
FROM BEING PULLED OUT OF THEIR
CLASSROOMS FOR MORE THAN A YEAR
COMPUTER. THE DAMAGES THAT WE
JUST HAD A BILL TALKING ABOUT
THE MENTAL HEALTH ISSUE AND
WANTING TO HAVE MORE FUNDING FOR
WE CANNOT IGNORE WHAT HAPPENS
WHEN WE KEEP THIS SYSTEM IN
PLACE. OF BEING ABLE TO REMOVE
KIDS FROM THE CLASSROOM. WITH
KEVIN TESTING AND NOT TALK ABOUT
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DO THAT- I. I'M SORRY I CANNOT SUPPORT
THIS BILL TODAY AND I DEEPLY
RESPECT- THE INTENT. BEHIND
TRYING TO KEEP EVERYBODY SAFE
BUT THIS BILL JUST IT DOESN'T DO
THAT AND I WISH THAT WE COULD
STOP WITH THIS OBSESSION OF
GOING AFTER KIDS WHO CAN'T STAND
UP FOR THEMSELVES BECAUSE THEIR
KIDS WELL THAT'S WHAT I WAS
PERRANCE HERS. AND THAT'S WHAT
I'M GOING TO DO SO RESPECTFULLY-
I CANNOT VOTE FOR THIS BILL SO
WITH THAT MISTER OR DOCTOR PAN
WOULD YOU LIKE TO CLOSE HER BIG
WIN COME. OF COURSE SENATOR
ROUGHLY ZERO I'VE HEARD THE
STATEMENT THAT THE BILL REQUIRES
TESTING AND- YOU KNOW MAYBE.
MAYBE THAT'S ONE INTERPRETATION
OF ITBUT YOU KNOW BEING. THE
FORMER LAWYER THAT I AM I HAVE
TO READ. THE LANGUAGE OF THIS
BILL SIMPLY SAYS THE STATE
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH
SHALL CONTINUE ADMINISTERING
THOSE COVERT TESTING PROGRAMS IN
LOCAL EDUCATIONAL AGENCIES.
SHALL ADMINISTER A TESTING
PROGRAM SO THAT MAY REQUIRE.
SOME LEVEL OF TESTING WE CLEAR
OTHERWISE OR MAY NOT DEPENDING
ON THE GUIDANCE ISSUED BY THE-
CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH
I JUST THINK WE OUGHTA WELL MAKE
THAT. CLARIFICATION AND THEN THE
NEXT. WIND DOWN THE STATE
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH
SHALL ADMINISTER TESTING
PROGRAMS WELL IT DOESN'T SAY
TEST MINISTRY TESTING PROGRAM.
SO TO BE CLEAR. ADMINISTERING A
TESTING PROGRAM PURSUANT TO A
PLAN. MAY REQUIRE TESTING TO
DEPENDING ON WHAT THE DEPARTMENT
PUBLIC HEALTH SAYS FOR THE CDC
OR IT MAY NOT SO I THINK WE
OUGHT TO. JUST MAKE SURE WE KNOW
WHAT WE'RE VOTING ON THANK YOU
SENATOR ROTH AND JUST I MEAN I
UNDERSTAND WHERE YOU'RE COMING
FROM BUT IN MY INTERPRETATION
AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE BILL IT
GIVES ITS STATUTORY PERMANENCE
SO THAT MEANS THEN THAT IT'S A
VERY ACROSS THE STATE THERE IS
NO CONSISTENCY AND THAT'S
FRANKLY THE LAST THING- THAT WE
WANT TO DO BUT THANK YOU FOR
YOUR COMMENTS DR PAN DID YOU
WANT TO CLOSE. I'M SORRY DID YOU
HAVE COMMENTS. GLIMCHER HELLO
YES GO AHEAD I APOLOGIZE I
FORGET HOW THAT'S OKAY WE HAVE
CENTER GONZALEZ PLEASE GETTING
VERY MUCH- MADAM CHAIR I JUST
WANNA- TO REITERATE MY THANKS TO
A DOCTOR PAN FOR BRINGING THIS
FORWARD I MYSELF HAVE A YOUNG
ONE IN K. THROUGH TWELVE- HE HAD
BEEN TESTING SINCE FOR THE LAST
YEAR HE DID RANDOM TESTS HE DID
TEST WEEKLY WE HAVE A AT HOME
TEST IT'S A VARIETY OF THINGS
THAT THAT- THE SCHOOL DISTRICT
THAT MY SON GOES TO HAD HAS
DONE. ALL TO KEEP OTHER STUDENTS
AND PARENTS SAFE MY FATHER TAKES
CARE OF MY SON AFTER WORK
BECAUSE CLEARLY I'M HERE IN
SACRAMENTO I WANT TO KEEP HIM
SAFE AS WELL WE NEED TO KNOW SO
FOR ME- THE TESTING MY SIX YEAR
OLD HASN'T EVEN COMPLAINED ONCE
IT'S FORTUNATE THAT WERE IN THIS
TIME WE'RE WE'RE CHILDREN ARE
ACCUSTOMED TO THIS TYPE OF
RIGOROUS TESTING- VACCINES IN
HEARING ABOUT DEATH AND IT'S
TOUGH AND I KNOW THAT AS A
PARENT MYSELF. BUT FOR ME- I
KNOW THAT IT'S KEEPING OUR
COMMUNITY SAFE AND AT THE END OF
THE DAY- AGAIN TO REITERATE
SENATOR POINT MODERATE. NOT
EVERY A HUNDRED STUDENTS ARE
GOING TO BE TESTED DOESN'T MEAN
IT'S GOING TO BE EVERY SINGLE
DAY CAN BE WERE A VARIETY OF
THINGS CUSTOMIZED FOR THAT
REGION AGAIN WITH THE GOAL OF
KEEPING PEOPLE SAFE SO THAT AS
SUPPORT THANK. THANK DR PAN.
THANK YOU AND APPRECIATE THAT'S
AND FROM ALL OF YOU ON THE
COMMITTEE- BUT IT'S MAKING A
FIFTY THREE POINTS- SELF FIRST
OF ALL- TESTING RECOMMENDATIONS
DEPENDS ON LOCAL CIRCUMSTANCES
SO THERE'S A KIND OF A
CONSISTENCY WELL BECAUSE OF CFC
BASED ON THE CIRCUMSTANCES RIGHT
SO IF WE HAVE A HIGHER CASE OF
KOBE. AND I DO I REITERATE IT IS
A SERIOUS DISEASE ALL RIGHT THIS
IS NOT A DISEASE BE TAKEN
LIGHTLY- YEAH WE HAD A WHOLE
HEARING ON LONG COVE IT AND I
APPRECIATE THAT SOME OF MY
COLLEAGUES WERE PRESENT THERE
AND SAID YOU KNOW WE SHOULD
BELIEVE THE PEOPLE WHO TELL.
TELL TOLD US THAT FONG COVERED
SERIOUS RIGHT THAT THAT THE ONE
TO ADDICTS YOU EXPERIENCED.
SUGAR STORIES WITH US. THAT YOU
WE JUST A TESTING. BASED ON
CIRCUMSTANCES RIGHT SO IF
THERE'S A LOT OF. COOLEY GOING
ON IN THE COMMUNITY- AND YOUR
INCREASE IN SCHOOL THEN YOU'RE
PREGNANT TEST MORE FREQUENTLY IN
THE MORE CERVANTES THINK IF THAT
GOES DOWN. SO AND PERHAPS EVEN
NOT RIGHT BECAUSE THAT'S THE
CASE THREE THREE THREE LOW AND
SO WE WANT TO HAVE THAT
FLEXIBILITY- WE WANT TO ACTUALLY
WE LET EACH SCHOOL DISTRICT.
SIMILAR TESTING PLAN WE DIDN'T
DICTATE TO THEM EXACTLY WHAT IT
IS I DIDN'T I'M NOT TRYING TO.
THERE'S NOTHING IN THE
LEGISLATION SO THAT LEGISLATORS
IS VERY SPECIFIC REGIMENTED BY
LAW IN THE CODE TESTING PLANS
AND SAID WE HAVE TO WORK WITH
THE FARM PUBLIC HEALTH ON THAT-
I. ALSO WANT NOTE- THE TERM OF
THAT YOU KNOW WE DON'T WANT TO
SPEAK. FROM SCHOOLS. RIGHT AND I
DON'T KEEP IN MIND THAT THERE
ARE CHILDREN WHO ARE CURRENTLY
NOT ATTENDING SCHOOL BECAUSE
THEIR PARENTS ARE WORRIED THAT
THE SCHOOLS THEMSELVES AND NOT
SAFE ENOUGH FOR THEIR CHILD.
THEY'RE WORRIED THEIR CHILD'S
GOING TO GET SICK OR THEIR
CHILD'S GONNA BRING IT HOME TO
SOMEONE THEIR HOUSEHOLD. HE'S
GONNA GET REALLY SEPARATE
SOMEONE WITH DIABETES SO IT HAS
OF SOMEONE WHO'S STRIPPING FREE
OR CANCER- SOMEONE. WITH A
CHRONIC CONDITION. AND I THINK
WE NEED TO LISTEN TO THOSE
PARENTS. AS WELL BECAUSE THEY'RE
AFRAID TO SEND THEIR KIDS TO
SCHOOL AND WE WANT TO BE SURE
SCHOOLS ARE. OPEN AND SAFE FOR
THEM AS WELL. AND THAT'S REALLY
IMPORTANT- I WOULD ALSO JUST
WANT TO MENTION THAT AND AGAIN I
HAVE TREMENDOUS RESPECT AND
GRATITUDE TO ALL OF YOU HAVE
SERVED OUR COUNTRY- I WAS ON THE
MILITARY BUT ACTUALLY DOES WANT
TO OTHER- COMMISSION COURTS THAT
NON MILITARY IT WAS. ACTUALLY AN
OFFICER IN THE US PUBLIC HEALTH
SERVICE COMMISSIONED CORPS. AND
I TOOK THE OATH THE SAME BOTH.
JUST MY COUNTRY AS WELL TO
BECOME THE COMMISSION OFFICER IN
THE US PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE
COMMISSIONED CORPS AND WE ALSO
BY THE WAY TOOK A SIMILAR OF
WHEN WE'RE SWORN INTO OFFICE. SO
I WOULD MAKE NOTE THAT- YOU KNOW
THIS. THAT IF THERE'S A
CONSTITUTIONAL ISSUES- WASN'T
RAISED BY LET'S COUNCIL THE
SUPREME COURT HAS RULED VERY
CLEARLY THAT- THAT- WITH THAT WE
CAN PUT IN RULES TO KEEP SCHOOLS
SAFE BY THE WAY SCHOOLS ARE
PLENTY OF ROLES- TRAIT. SEND
YOUR KID TO THIS TO YOUR SCHOOL
SOMETIMES WITH VIOLATING YEAH
YOU KNOW THEY HAVE CLOTHING
STANDARDS. OF OTHER TYPES OF
STANDARDS AS WELL AND- WE DON'T-
DON'T CLAIM THAT THEIR TYRANTS
SOMETIMES WE- OBJECT TO THEM
THAT'S FINE THAT'S THAT'S PART
OF DEMOCRACY. BUT BUT I THINK
MOST OF THE KNOWLEDGE THAT THERE
ARE CERTAIN RULES THAT SCHOOL
STUDENTS PLACE TO AND FROM
SCHOOL STAY SAFE AND- MOST OF US
CAN UNDERSTAND THAT- BUT- AGAIN
WE WANT TO BE SURE THAT. OUR
CHILDREN. I THAT. WE KNOW WHAT'S
ON IN OUR SCHOOL. PARENTS WANT
TO KNOW IN ORDER KEEP THEM THEIR
CHILDREN'S. THEIR HOUSEHOLD
SAFE. SCHOOLS WANT TO BE SURE
THEY CAN STAY OPEN THEY NEED TO
KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. THAT'S
WHAT THIS BILL IS ABOUT WE'RE
DOING TESTING SO WE CAN KNOW
WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE SCHOOLS
WHEN IT COMES TO COBIT. AND HELP
WITH WE CAN KEEP COVERED REALLY
LOW CASES THEN MAYBE WE DON'T
NEED TO DO MUCH TESTING AT ALL
ON THIS THIS BILL WOULD ALLOW
THAT AS WELL. WITH THAT.
ESPECIALLY AFTER I VOTE AND
AGAIN THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR
YOUR- YOUR YOUR- YOUR- COMMENTS
THANK YOU. OUR IS THERE A MOTION
. YOU DID SENATOR WINNER MOVED
THE MOTION IS TO PASS AS AMENDED
THE FIRST AMENDED RE REFER TO

LENDERS FOR CARING RIGHT WE'RE
GOING TO NOW GO BACK TO. OUR
FILE ORDER SO I THINK CENTER
EGGMAN. PLEASE YOUR BILL IS THE
NEXT UNDER YOUR RATES ARE SO
WE'RE GONNA MOVE TO ITEM NUMBER
ITEM NUMBER SIX SB. TEN OH
THREE. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THE
SECURE AND MEMBERS I AM HERE TO
PRESENT S. B. TEN OH THREE. AND
THIS BILL WOULD ESTABLISH A
VOLUNTARY FORTY HOUR TRAUMA
INFORMED CARE TRAINING PROGRAM
FOR VICTIMS ADVOCATES TO BETTER
ASSIST SURVIVORS. IN HEALING AND
RECOVERY. THE CALIFORNIA
DEPARTMENT PUBLIC HEALTH WOULD
BE DESIGNATED TO CERTIFY THIS
TRAINING THIS TRAINING THAT IS
CURRENTLY RIGHT NOW PEOPLE IF
THEY WANT TO SERVE AS AN ADDICT
ADVOCATE- THERE'S A- THIRTY
MINUTE TRAINING THEY CAN TAKE ON
TRAUMA. HERE WHICH IS A
FRAMEWORK THAT HELPS ADVOCATES
RECOGNIZE. RESPOND TO SIGNS
SYMPTOMS AND RISK OF TRAUMA. AS
IT RELATES TO PEOPLE WHO ARE
VICTIMS OF VIOLENCE AND CRIME.
THIS EXISTING TRAINING FOCUSES
ON HOW THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE
SYSTEM WORKS VICTIMS RIGHTS
VICTIMS RESTITUTION. AND OTHER
CRITICAL ASPECTS HOWEVER THERE
ARE ONLY ABOUT THIRTY MINUTES OF
TRAINING IN TRAUMA INFORMED KERR
ALONG WITH HIS EXISTING
CURRICULUM. I BELIEVE THAT
PROVIDING TRAUMA INFORMED CARE
IS ESSENTIAL TO AVOID RE
TRAUMATIZING. AND HELP OUR
SURVIVORS HEAL AND RECOVER
SOMETIMES VOLUNTEERS WITH THE
BEST INTENTIONS CAN CAN BE A
PART OF RE VICTIMIZING SOMEBODY
IF THEY ARE INTRODUCED TO A
DRAMATIC SITUATION OR IN A
SETTING. I REMEMBER WHEN SITTING
IN A- COUNCIL MEETING AND
SOMEONE COMING AND TESTIFYING
ABOUT THEIR ABUSE- CAN I BUY I
DIDN'T THINK IT WAS A SAFE PLACE
FOR THAT PERSON TO BE TALKING
ABOUT THAT. AND I AND I RESTART
AFTERWARDS THE PEOPLE WHO ARE
PROVIDING THAT SUPPORT. KIND OF
QUESTION THEIR TRAINING AND
INVOLVEMENT BEFORE THAT. AND
WAS- SURPRISED AT THE LACK OF
IT- SO AS MUCH AS WE WANT TO
HELP PEOPLE AND WE WANT TO
UTILIZE VOLUNTEERS FOR THOSE
WHICH IS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT.
PEOPLE SHOULD BE WELL INFORMED
AND TRAINED IN ORDER TO
RECOGNIZE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS AND
TO BE ABLE TO MINIMIZE- THINGS
THAT COULD COME UP FOR PEOPLE.
WHO HAVE BEEN VICTIMIZED AND
VIOLATED SOME OF THOSE THINGS
ARE ESTABLISHING PHYSICAL
EMOTIONAL SAFETY FOR THEM.
BUILDING TRUST PROVIDING
SURVIVOR CENTERED EVIDENCE BASED
CARE ALLOWING FOR A TANAMI AND
SURVIVORS TRIED TO FIGHT THEIR
OWN NEEDS FOR HEALING. AND
PROVIDING SERVICES GROUNDED IN
THAT INTERSECTION ALITY
UNDERSTANDING THAT ONE SIZE
DOESN'T FIT ALL. AND DEPENDING
ON WHO'S WHO SOMEONE IS AND
THEIR CIRCUMSTANCE IN PLACE IN
LIFE THAT CAN LEAD TO- TO THEM
BEING TRIGGERED IN DIFFERENT
KINDS OF WAYS- SO MANY TIMES.
THE LEVEL OF THE TRUMP
EXPERIENCE PRIOR TO WORKING WITH
VICTIMS ADVOCATES CAN BE
EXTREME. AGAIN INCLUDING RAPE
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE EVEN THE
MURDER. OF A LOVED ONE. SB TEN
OH THREE WILL ALLOW FOR THE
ESTABLISHMENT OF A SYSTEM OR OF
TRUSTED TRAINING THAT WILL NOT
BE REQUIRED BY THE STATE TO
SERVE IN THIS ROLE BUT IT MAY BE
REQUIRED BY DA'S OFFICES OR
OTHER EMPLOYERS. TO WE'RE NOT
GONNA SEE PEOPLE HAVE TO HAVE
THIS- BUT IF THERE IS A
DEPARTMENT A DA THE BILL BE ABLE
TO HAVE A TRAINING TO PROVIDE
FOR PEOPLE. OF THAT THE
DEPARTMENT PUBLIC HEALTH HAS
APPROVED. WITH ME TODAY TO

AND INCREASE ENGAGEMENT TREAT
PEOPLE WITH TRAUMA. WITHOUT

CAME HOME BACK FROM A FORENSIC
PSYCHIATRIST AND MEDICAL
DIRECTOR WORKING FOR SAN MATTEO
COUNTY HEALTH. MY COLLEAGUES MY
WORKING IN OUR PSYCHIATRIC
EMERGENCY ROOM SIX THIS DATABASE
IS A HUGE STEP IN THE RIGHT
DIRECTION. MOST NOVEL ELEMENT IS
THAT IT WILL BE UPDATED IN REAL
TIME TO REFLECT BETTER
AVAILABILITY. CURRENTLY
PARTICIPATION PSYCHIATRIC UNIT
IS FULL IN APPRECIATION TO BE
SENT TO AN OUTSIDE HOSPITAL. A
NURSE WORKS WITH A LIST OF
HOSPITALS IN CONTACT NUMBERS AND
SPENDS THE NEXT TWENTY FOUR TO
FORTY EIGHT HOURS MAKING PHONE
CALLS. SPEAKING MESSAGES AND FAX
RECORDS HOPING TO LOCATE A BAD.
OFTEN THE CONTRACT INFORMATION
IS INACCURATE IN THE STRUGGLE TO
REACH THE CORRECT PERSON A
POTENTIAL RECEIVING HOSPITAL.
CUMBERSOME INEFFICIENT PROCESS
THAT CONTRIBUTES TO STAFF
BURNOUT THIS DATABASE WILL HELP
. MY COLLEAGUES IN OUR PUBLIC
GUARDIAN'S OFFICE WHO ARE
RESPONSIBLE FOR FINDING LONG
TERM PLACEMENTS FOR PEOPLE ON
MENTAL HEALTH CONSERVATORSHIP.
WE'D FIFTY BED DATABASE WILL BE
VERY HELPFUL IN THEIR WORK AS
WELL. MANY OF THE CLIENTS HAVE
COMPLEX MENTAL AND PHYSICAL
HEALTH NEEDS SUCH AS MOBILITY
IMPAIRMENT IN FLINT REQUIREMENTS
IN OTHER HEALTH CHALLENGES THAT
COME DIFFICULT TO PLACE SOME
SPEND MONTHS AND MONTHS IN THE
HOSPITAL WAITING FOR A BED AT A
LOWER LEVEL OF CARE. BUT STATE
OFFICIALS WOULD GIVE THEM THE
ABILITY TO CONDUCT LARGE SCALE
SEARCHES OF MANY FACILITIES
ACROSS A LARGE GEOGRAPHIC AREA
AND MORE QUICKLY IDENTIFY
PLACEMENTS TABLE TO ACCOMMODATE.
THE HEALTH NEEDS OF THEIR
CLIENTS. ACCORDING TO THIS
PROPOSAL BAD DATABASE WILL
IMPROVE THE CARE IN MY COUNTY
AND WILL BENEFIT SMALLER
HOSPITALS AND UNDERSERVED
COUNTIES EVEN MORE. THE SUMMER
OF UBER OR LIFT RIDE WITHIN
MINUTES WHY CAN'T WE USE
INTERNET BASED TECHNOLOGY TO
FIND TO FIND A METHOD MENTAL
HEALTH THAT. THE FACT WILL BE
THE ABILITY TO CONNECT PEOPLE TO
THE RIGHT CARE AT THE RIGHT
INTENSITY AT THE RIGHT TIME. IN
ADDITION LIKE THIS IS LONG
OVERDUE IN CALIFORNIA'S MENTAL
HEALTH SYSTEM BUT SHORTEN THE
WAY. I THANK YOU VERY MUCH-

CENTER PROPRIOCEPTIVE CASELLA
LAZIM DID YOU SAID YOU WERE IN
SUPPORT OF ELEVEN FIFTY FOUR ALL
RIGHT OKAY NEXT WITNESS WE'RE
TAKING WITNESSES IN OPPOSITION
TO SB ELEVEN FIFTY FOUR. IN THIS
YEAR WE HAVE NO ONE ELSE IN
QUEUE AT THIS TIME ALL RIGHT
THANK YOU VERY MUCH WE'VE ACTIVE
COMMITTEE QUESTIONS. FROM
COMMITTEE MEMBERS IT'S BEEN
MOVED BY CENTER ROUGH. ASSEMBLY
LONDIS. THANK YOU SO MUCH I
JUST- I. FULLY SUPPORT YOUR BILL
BUT I DID HAVE SOME QUESTIONS
ABOUT- I KNOW EVEN MORE THAN
THIS ONE BUT THE COSTS THAT MAY
BE ASSOCIATED WITH BUILDING A
SYSTEM LIKE THIS WHICH WOULD BE
VAST IMMUNITY YOU KNOW STATE OF
FORTY MILLION. AND THEN THE
ANALYSES ARE YOU KNOW KIND OF
HOW WE'VE LOOKED AT OTHER STATES
HAVE TRIED TO DO THIS AND THE
INABILITY TO REALLY KEEP IT YOU
KNOW TWENTY FOUR SEVEN UP TODAY
IT'S NO SMALL TASK AND I JUST
WONDER. IF YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS
ON THAT I DO I DO WE ARE
CURRENTLY AND OVER THE LAST
COUPLE YEARS SPENDING BILLIONS
OF DOLLARS WERE SENDING DOWN TO
STREAMLINE OUR MENTAL HEALTH AND
BEHAVIOR HEALTH SYSTEM- TWENTY
THREE STATES ARE CURRENTLY
WORKING ON ASSEMBLY NOBODY HAS
BEEN ABLE TO BE FULLY SUCCESSFUL
AT THIS. BUT WE BELIEVE THERE
HAS BEEN ENOUGH STARTS AND STOPS
THAT WE KNOW WHAT WE NEED IN
ORDER TO BE ABLE TO DO IT DONE
TO GET IT DONE AND WE ARE ALSO
WORKING- IN. WITH ALL THE
STAKEHOLDERS TO BE ABLE TO GET
ALL THE INFORMATION BECAUSE OF
COURSE SOME HAVE YOU KNOW
DIFFERENT PEOPLE HAVE DIFFERENT
ISSUES WITH THIS IS THE FIRST
TIME WE'VE HAD NO OPPOSITION
BECAUSE WE'VE BEEN WORKING. VERY
IN A VERY INTEGRATIVE
COLLABORATIVE WAY TO BE ABLE TO
GET THIS DONE- AND SO YOU'RE
RIGHT BECAUSE OF THE COMPLEXITY
OF OUR OF OUR SYSTEM- WHICH I
JUST. THIS UNDERSTOOD THE IDEA
THAT WE NEED THIS EVEN MORE
BECAUSE SOME OF THE THINGS THAT
LOOKING AT LIKE TIME FOR ALL THE
PLACEMENT HOW LONG DOES THAT
TAKE HOW LONG SOMEBODY WAITING
IN AN EMERGENCY ROOM AND THEN
WHAT PART OF THE STATE IS THAT
HAPPENING AND WHERE IT'S NOT
BECAUSE THAT WILL TELL US ABOUT
RESOURCES. SINCE THE PLACEMENT
BUT WE'VE HURDLE BUT THIS ME ME
. B. AND SAM. COUNTY THERE'S NO
BREAD FOR NATALIE. PER SO THEY
HAVE TO GET THREE SPENT THREE OR
FOUR COUNTIES OVER. HUGE
PROBLEMS RIGHT AND THEN WE CAN
BETTER DIRECT OUR INFRASTRUCTURE
DOLLARS. THAT WE'RE ALSO
CURRENTLY HAVING BILLIONS GO
DOWN FOR TO BE ABLE TO FIND-
DIVERSION FROM INPATIENT
SETTINGS TO CRISIS STABILIZATION
UNITS RIGHT. HOW ARE THOSE
THINGS GOING ON BECAUSE WE KNOW
WE- THERE'S- ALL THESE DIFFERENT
LEVELS. SO IS A COMPLEX YES OF
COURSE IT IS. IS IT NECESSARY
AND WILL STREAMLINE OUR SYSTEM.
I THINK WE'VE HEARD FROM THE
EXPERTS THAT THEY THINK IT IS-
WE AGAIN. I'VE BEEN DOING THIS
WORK FOR A LONG TIME. IT IS IT
IN MY MIND- OUTRAGEOUS THAT
WE'RE STILL USING THE SAME
TECHNOLOGY AND HAVE THE SAME
PEOPLE WITH. LICENSE MAKING
CALLS. ON THE TELEPHONE FROM A
NOTEBOOK- TO TRY TO FIND A BED
FOR SOMEBODY. WHILE EVERYBODY
ELSE IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM. IS
SITTING WITH SOMEBODY WHO IS. A
MEDICATED AND UNTREATED AS THEY
CONTINUE. TO EXAGGERATE. SO IS
IT COMPLEX YES IT IS. SO- THE
AND THE PERSONAL SERVICE THAT
WE'VE BECAUSE WE'VE DOES NOT THE
FIRST TIME THAT HAS ONLY BEEN IN
THE MILLIONS NOT BILLIONS OKAY
SO I'M JUST WONDERING IF SINCE
OTHER STATES HAVE TRIED THIS-
THE SOFTWARE EXIST THOUGH IT
COULD BE IMPROVED IS THAT A
CONSIDERATION THAT YOU WOULD DE
YOU KNOW SORT OF BORROW THAT OR
IT IS THERE. I DON'T KNOW THE
NOTION THAT SILICON VALLEY COULD
ACTUALLY YOU KNOW HELP WITH THIS
AND DEVELOP SOMETHING BECAUSE I
JUST THINK IF THE DM B. IF YOU
CAN ON THE DMV'S WEBSITE AND
SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT ANYWHERE
IN THE STATE ANY DMB FOR
DRIVER'S LICENSE TEST OR
SOMETHING LIKE THAT SURELY THERE
IS THE ABILITY TO DO SOMETHING
LIKE THIS. YOU KNOW. RIGHT OKAY
WELL. POSTMASTER THE OBVIOUS
HERE THANK YOU. WITH ONE OF THE
DIFFICULTIES IN JUST TO
ACKNOWLEDGE IT IS BECAUSE WE'RE
DEALING WITH COULD BE STATE
AGENCIES COULD BE COUNTY
AGENCIES COULD BE NONPROFITS
SOME OF THE STEP DOWN UNITS SO
IT'S NOT JUST DIEM VS JUST ALL.
IN A STATE DATABASE SO THIS IS
THIS IS GOING TO NEED TO MERGE
DIFFERENT DATABASES THANK YOU. I
FEDERAL. THANK YOU I HAVE I
THINK IT'S RIGHT TO THINK ABOUT
THE ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH IT
PROJECTS IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA WE'VE CERTAINLY
DEMONSTRATED THAT OVER THE LAST
TEN TO TWELVE YEARS BUT- HAVING-
BEEN A MEMBER OF VARIOUS
HOSPITAL BOARDS- DURING MY TIME.
ON THIS EARTH PRIOR TO COMING UP
HERE TO SACRAMENTO AND-
EXPERIENCING THE DIFFICULTY WITH
THE FIFTY ONE FIFTIES. OF
FRANKLY FLOODING THE EMERGENCY
DEPARTMENTS- OF STANDING IN
CORNERS HAVING TO BE MONITORED.
FOR THE OF SEVENTY TWO HOURS
THAT- FOR THE COULD BE HELD IN
THOSE DEPARTMENTS I THINK WE
ALSO HAVE TO WEIGH THE COST.
OVERALL CUSTOMER HEALTH SYSTEM
OF HAVING TO IN ESSENCE WERE
HOUSE. THOSE WHO REALLY DESERVE
TO BE IN LICENSED PSYCHIATRIC
TREATMENT FACILITIES WEIGH THE
COST OF THAT TO OUR HOSPITAL
SYSTEM IN EVALUATING THE VALUE.
THE VALUE- ELEMENTS HERE TO THIS
TO THIS PROPOSAL SO I FULLY
FULLY SUPPORT IT. OKAY THANK YOU
FOR ANY OTHER QUESTIONS COMMENTS
COMMITTEE MEMBERS. SIR EDMUND- I
PREFER YOU BRING THIS BILL FORD
I THINK- SOME CHANNELS EIGHT
AND- CENTERED MELINDA'S BROUGHT
UP NOT THE IN TERMS OF- YEAH
OTHER STATES HAVE TRIED TO SEND
WORKS SO WELL TO ME SOME OF IT
IS SAYING TO PROVIDE
EXPECTATIONS SO I HAVE TO MAY I
GET A LITTLE NERVOUS AND I SAID
WELL WE HAVE UBER AND LIFT AND
SO IT'S NOT GONNA BE. WE NOW
HAVE A DATABASE FOR SOMEONE SO
ON THINGS THAT YOU CAN FIND
SOMETHING BUT AS YOU POINTED
OUT. PERHAPS JUST HAVING
ACCURATE INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT
KIND OF BEDS THEY HAVE. WHO YOU
KNOW WHAT THE FACTORED WAY TO
CONTACT HIS THE POINT PERSON FOR
A PERSON EVEN THAT ALONE IN A
DATABASE THAT'S GOOD THAT'S
MAINTAIN WOULD BE HIS READING
CORRECT RIGHT SO I DO WANT TO
SERVE. THREE YEAR OF THE
EXPECTATIONS IN TERMS OF LIKE-
WE HAVE A DATABASE SO I KNOW
EXACTLY HOW MANY EMPTY BEDS ARE
RIGHT NOW AND THAT'S COULD BE
TOTALLY ACCURATE BUT STILL.
TWENTY FOUR SEVEN ALL THE TIME.
BECAUSE I THINK WE MAY. WE BE ON
THE TAX. RIGHT BUT I JUST WANT
TO. CONTINUE TO. ON MOVING THIS
BILL FORWARD I THINK THIS YOU
KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TRYING
PROPOSES. IS AN EXCELLENT IDEA I
HOPE I DO HOPE THAT. IN THE
CONVERSATION THAT WE SCALE BACK
EXPECTATIONS MAYBE WE CAN MEET
THOSE EXPECTATIONS GREAT BUT-
DON'T BE LOW CLASSES ABOUT THAT
THE WITH THAT. WOULD YOU LIKE TO
CLOSE. THANK YOU VERY MUCH I
THINK WE SHOULD SET HIGH
EXPECTATIONS FOR OURSELVES. AND
I WILL SAY. HISTORICALLY THE
HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION HAS BEEN
OPPOSED TO THIS. NOT SO MUCH
ANYMORE JUST BECAUSE OF THE
IMPACT ON ON THEM. HAS COME TO
THE POINT WHERE. EVERYONE
ACKNOWLEDGES. THAT WHAT WE'RE
DOING IS NOT WORKING AND WE NEED
TO DO IT. BETTER FOR ALL OF US.
I'M PEOPLE HEARD ME TALK ABOUT.
THAT MY A BILL PACKAGE AT MANY
OF YOUR CO AUTHORS ON. THIS IS A
KEY PIECE IN IT AND BEING ABLE
TO STREAMLINE. BECAUSE AGAIN. WE
KNOW THAT A LOT OF FOLKS ARE
GOING TO COME INTO THE SYSTEM IF
THEY'RE NOT MEDICATED THEY'RE
GONNA BE. BACK IN. WITHIN THE
NEXT TWENTY FOUR HOURS. OR
COMMIT A CRIME AND END UP IN OUR
JAIL SYSTEM. ALL OF THOSE ARE
NOT. IS NOT THE HUMANE WAY TO GO
ABOUT TREATING PEOPLE OR THE
MOST COST EFFECTIVE FOR
CALIFORNIA. I RESPECTFULLY ASK
YOUR EITHER. THANK YOU CENTER

CURRENT LAW REQUIRES UP TOM
INTERESTED OTHER PROVIDERS TO

INDIVIDUAL AND MEDICARE FROM THE
CALIFORNIA. PRISON INDUSTRY
AUTHORITY UNFORTUNATELY THE
SYSTEM IS PLAGUED WITH PROBLEMS
AS THE EYE GLASSES OFTEN TAKE
MONTHS TO DELIVER TO PATIENTS
AND ARE SUCH POOR QUALITY IN IN
SOME CASES IT CAN CAUSE
IRRITATION OR THEY'RE LESS
DURABLE AND BREAK MORE EASILY
THAN AYE GLASSES MANUFACTURED
