TO ENSURE BETTER COMPLIANCE AND
PROTECTION FOR CONSUMERS IN THE

GOUGING LAW THAT IS TRIGGERED
AFTER A- AS STATE OF EMERGENCY
DECLARED PROHIBITS MANY
INDUSTRIES FROM INCREASING
PRICES. BY MORE THAN 10% THE
PENALTY FOR VIOLATING THIS LAW
INCLUDE FINES AND JAIL TIME.
ALTHOUGH THE PRICE GOUGING
LIMITATION WAS ONLY INTENDED TO
APPLY FOR THIRTY DAYS STATE AND
LOCAL OFFICIALS HAVE EXTENDED
NUMEROUS STATE OF EMERGENCY FOR

THE CORRECT THIRTY DAY PERIOD
UNAVAILABLE. OVER THE LAST TWO
YEARS SOME EMERGENCIES DUE TO

UNFORTUNATELY THESE EXTENSIONS
ARE NOT MADE PUBLIC BY STATE AND
LOCAL OFFICIALS LEAVING

LAW. SENATE BILL ELEVEN THIRTY

REQUIRING THE CALIFORNIA OFFICE
OF EMERGENCY SERVICES TO UPDATE

SENATOR SKINNER. BEN SECRETARY
PLEASE READ. SENATE BILL TWELVE
HUNDRED BY SENATOR SKINNER AN
ACT RELATING TO CIVIL PROCEDURE
CENTERS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH-
MADAM PRESIDENT MEMBERS- WE ARE
AND THEN FORTUNATE SITUATION OF
. HAVING THE ECONOMY'S REBOUND
FROM THE PANDEMIC BUT STILL HIGH
INFLATION AND MANY PEOPLE
STRUGGLING WE'VE GOT 61% OF THE
POPULATION ACROSS THE US ARE
ESTIMATED TO BE LIVING PAYCHECK
TO PAYCHECK AND PERSONAL DEBT.
INCREASED BY 6% LAST YEAR AN
UNEXPECTED MEDICAL BILL CAR
REPAIR. VARIOUS THINGS LIKE THAT
CAN LEAD TO A SPIRAL OF PEOPLE
FALLING INTO DEBT AND THEN
SUFFERING THE SITUATION WHERE
THEY GET A COURT ORDER JUDGMENT
FROM A DEBT COLLECTOR NOW. THE
DEBT COLLECTOR WHEN THEY RECEIVE
A COURT ORDER JUDGMENT HAS THE
ABILITY TO THEN GARNISH WAGES-
CAP INTO A BANK ACCOUNT PUT A
LIEN ON PROPERTY VARIOUS OTHER
THINGS BUT THE OTHER THING THAT
ARE CALIFORNIA LAW DOES
ADDITIONALLY IS REQUIRES THE
COURT TO PUT A 10% INTEREST RATE
ON THAT COURT ORDERED JUDGMENT.
NOW MANY OTHER STATES HAVE BEEN
REDUCING THEIR INTEREST RATES
ARE ALREADY HAD LOWER INTEREST
RATES NEW YORK FOR EXAMPLE LAST
YEAR PASSED A LAW TO REQUIRE
ONLY A 2% INTEREST RATE THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ONLY REQUIRES
PRIME FOR SUCH DEBT JUDGMENTS
WHAT THIS BILL DOES. IS LOWERS
THE INTEREST RATES SOLELY IN
ONLY ON. COURT ORDERED JUDGMENTS
ON PERSONAL DEBT WITH A CAP OF
THEIR PERSONAL DEBT AT FIFTY
THOUSAND SO IF YOU HAVE MUCH
HIGHER PERSONAL DEBT YOU WOULD
NOT BENEFIT FROM THIS BILL.
UNLESS IT IS MEDICAL DEBT THE
CAP FOR MEDICAL DEBT IS TWO
HUNDRED THOUSAND. SO THIS BILL
BASICALLY MAKES IT A LITTLE
EASIER FOR FAMILIES TO GET
BEHIND TO PAY THAT DEBT IN GET
OUT OF A CYCLE OF DEBT. AND
THAT'S REALLY THE PURPOSE OF THE
BILL AND I APPRECIATE THE
JUDICIAL COMMITTEES. HELP IN
MAKING VARIOUS AMENDMENTS THAT
SET THE INTEREST RATE FOR THE
BILL AT CRIME. AND WITH THAT I
ASK FOR YOUR AYE VOTE. THANK YOU

CENTER SKINNER YES PLEASE
PROCEED. I THINK I'VE GOT THE
RIGHT BILL WHEN I LOOKED AT THIS
BILL AND I COMPARED IT TO THE
CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE IT
APPEARED THAT THE INITIAL
VERSION OF THE BILL. HAVE A
BROAD IMPACT ON COLLECTION
ACTIVITIES WITH RESPECT TO- THE
JUDGMENTS AND RENEWAL OF
JUDGMENTS AND THE LIKE. AND I
DIDN'T HEAR YOU ADDRESS. THAT IN
YOUR PRESENTATION AND I'M
WONDERING. IF YOUR INTENT IS TO
REDUCE THE IMPACT OF THAT TO THE
CONSUMER DEBT THAT YOU'RE
ATTEMPTING TO ADDRESS. IN THE
BILL IF I HAVE THE RIGHT BILL
YES YOU HAVE THE RIGHT BILL AND
IT IS THE INTENT OF THE BILL TO
ALSO. BUY LIMIT THESE RENEWALS
OF THE JUDGMENT NOT TO LIMIT THE
ABILITY FOR THE COLLECTOR TO.
COLLECT BUT RATHER FOR RENEWALS
ON THOSE- JUDGMENTS THAT HAVE
NOT HAD COLLECTION INITIATED AND
I THINK- WHAT YOU HAVE POINTED
OUT. IS THAT THE DRAFTING MAY
HAVE AN ERROR AND WE'RE STILL
WORKING ON THAT THAT WOULD HAVE
COVERED A BROADER SET OF
JUDGMENTS BUT OUR INTENTION IS
pJUDGMENTS IN THE SAME WAY THAT
THIS BILL IS COVERING AND SO WE
ARE WORKING NOW WITH PLEDGE
COUNCIL TO DETERMINE- WHETHER
THERE IS THAT DRAFTING AARON IF
THERE IS AS YOU HAVE AS YOU IN-
HAVE. YOUR READING OF THE BILL
THEN WE WILL CORRECT THAT IN THE
NEXT HOUSE. FRIEDMAN PRESIDENT
OF MY OWN TIME FOR JUST A SECOND
THANK YOU- THANK ME THANKS TO
THE AUTHOR FOR DRESSING THIS
BECAUSE AS YOU WELL KNOW.
JUDGMENTS UTILIZED IN A WIDE
VARIETY OF AREAS FROM MEDICAL
MALPRACTICE CASES TO REAL ESTATE
DISPUTES TO CIVIL ACTIONS. AND
BECAUSE OF THE SIZE OF THE
JUDGMENTS WHETHER IT'S- FORTY
SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS LIKE ONE
OF MY FRIENDS OF. SECURE NOT TOO
LONG AGO OR FIVE MILLION DOLLARS
OR FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND OR
FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS IN THE
CIVIL CONTEXT SOMETIMES IT'S
IMPORTANT TO. NOT ONLY- OBTAINED
A JUDGMENT DO WHAT'S NECESSARY
TO FILE THE LIENS BUT TO RENEW
THAT JUDGMENT BEYOND THE TEN
YEARS IN A ROW FACT COLLECTION
PARTICULARLY. OF LARGE JUDGMENTS
WHICH HAVE. THIS IS NOTHING TO

NINE BY SENATOR ARCHULETA AN ACT
RELATING TO VEHICLES CENTER
ARCHULETA. THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT I RISE TO PRESENT
SENATE BILL TWELVE FORTY NINE
WHICH SEEKS TO MODERNIZE THE NON
GOVERNMENTAL CHARGE KNOWN AS THE
DOCUMENT PROCESSING CHARGE THAT
AUTO DEALERSHIP MAY COLLECT IN
ORDER TO. RECOVER THEIR COSTS
FOR THE WORK THEY PERFORMED TO
COMPLETE VEHICLE SALES AND LEASE
TRANSACTIONS WITHOUT DEALER
BASED DOCUMENT PROCESSING
SERVICES CUSTOMERS WOULD HAVE TO
GO THROUGH SEVERAL SIGNIFICANT
STEPS ON THEIR OWN YOUR PROCESS
TO COMPLETE VEHICLE PURCHASE OR
LEASE TRANSACTION INCLUDING MANY
MANY TRIPS TO DMV TO COMPLETE
MULTIPLE STEPS. OUT TO COVER THE
SUBSTANTIAL STAFF TIME AND COST
OF TECHNOLOGY AND EQUIPMENT
ASSOCIATED WITH OBLIGATIONS
CALIFORNIA CURRENTLY ALLOWS OUR
DEALERSHIP TO COLLECT THE
STATUTORY MAXIMUM DOCUMENT
PROCESSING FEE OF EIGHTY FIVE
DOLLARS PER TRANSACTION. SENATE
BILL TWELVE FORTY NINE WOULD
RAISE THE KAPPA DOCUMENT
PROCESSING- CHARGER ONE SEVENTY
FIVE WHICH IS DIRECTLY IN LINE
WITH A DOCUMENT PROCESSING
CHARGE INCREASE IN NEW YORK
STATE THAT WAS ENACTED JUST LAST
YEAR EVEN WITH THIS INCREASE
CALIFORNIA DOCUMENT PROCESSING
CHARGE WOULD REMAIN ONE OF THE
LOWEST IN THE COUNTRY AND FOR
THESE REASONS I ASK FOR YOUR-
AYE VOTE. THANK YOU CENTER
ARCHULETA DISCUSSION AND DEBATE
CENTER GLAZER. Q. THANK YOU
MADAM PRESIDENT MEMBERS- I'M
GONNA SUPPORT THE BILL TODAY BUT
I WANTED TO KNOW TO THE AUTHOR
AND THOSE WHO ARE. BEHIND THIS
BILL THAT I THINK A GREAT POINT
OF FRUSTRATION BY AUTO
PURCHASERS IS TO MAKE THAT
AGREEMENT WHATEVER GOES INTO
MAKING THAT AGREEMENT AND THEN
YOU GET INTO THE BACK ROOM TO
KIND OF DO THE PAPERWORK AND
THEN OUT OF THE BLUE COMES THESE
FEES AS JUSTIFIED AS THEY MAY
BE. I DO THINK YOUR BILL WOULD
BE BETTER IF IT PROVIDED SOME
LEVEL OF DISCLOSURE TO POTENTIAL
BUYERS ABOUT THESE FEES I THINK
THAT THERE IS SOME JUSTIFICATION
FOR THIS CASE I THINK THAT THE
BILL COULD BE BETTER IF WE COULD
DEAL WITH THAT CONSUMER ANGST
THAT COMES WHEN YOU THINK YOU'VE
MADE THAT DEAL. BUT THEN THERE'S
A LOT MORE TO IT THAN YOU
REALIZED WITH THAT I WOULD ASK
FOR AN AYE VOTE TODAY. THANK YOU
SENATOR GLAZERS CINDER. JONES
DID YOU PUT YOUR OKAY SENATOR
DORADO. YES I AM THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT OF JUST FOR THE AUTHOR
IF I COULD ASK. CENTER TO LET WE
TAKE A QUESTION YES MA'AM PLEASE
PROCEED THANK YOU- I'M CONCERNED
AND WITH FEW WOULD ADDRESS THE
ISSUE OF. HOW THIS IS GOING TO
DOUBLE THE AMOUNT OF THAT OF A
WE CHARGE- YOU KNOW NEW AND USED. AS WE KNOW WHERE EVERYBODY'S
GOING THROUGH A TOUGH TIME AND
WE'RE ALL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT
HOW TO CONTROL THE INCREASE IN
PRICES AND COST- AND THIS ONE
CERTAINLY IS GOING IN THE
DIRECTION OF INCREASING THE
COSTS SO- AND THERE'S NO
OPPORTUNITY SOLITAIRE
NEGOTIATING OVER THE PRICE OF
THE CAR. THIS IS A- UNMOUNT THAT
HIS IN BEING PUT ON THEM- SO HOW
DO YOU RESPOND TO THAT THIS IS
OF GRAVE CONCERN TO
ORGANIZATIONS THAT REPRESENT
WORKING PEOPLE WHO REALLY WANT
TO BUY THE CAR AND THEN THEY GET
ADDED ADDITIONAL FEES. THANK YOU
AND TO ANSWER SOME OF THE
QUESTIONS FROM MY COLLEAGUE FROM
LOS ANGELES THE FEE HAS NOT BEEN
RAISED SINCE SINCE THE NINETIES
AND AGAIN. WE ARE IN PART NOW
WITH NEW YORK WHICH IS THE VERY
LOWEST IN THE TIME AND EFFORT
THAT GOES INTO THE PROCESSING OF
THIS DOCUMENTATION AND AGAIN THE
LABOR THAT'S PUT INTO IT. AND
OBVIOUSLY THE PEOPLE WHO ARE
WORKING WILL BENEFIT FROM THAT
THE PRICE OF THE CAR AS IT IS A
WHOLE DIFFERENT THING- THE
DISCLOSURES WILL BE MADE UP
FRONT SO THE CAR BUYER KNOWS-THAT IN THE PROCESSING FEE- WILL
BE THE AMOUNT. SO EVERYTHING IS
BEEN THERE IN PLACE. TO PROTECT
CONSUMER AND ANY ADJUSTMENTS
WE'RE GOING TO GO HEAD CONTINUE
OVER INTO THE ASSEMBLY AND WILL
CONTINUE WITH ANY ADJUSTMENTS WE
CAN'T. IF I CAN OF ALL EQUITIES
PROCEED YEAH I GUESS. I GUESS AT
A TIME WHEN. PEOPLE ARE REALLY
STRUGGLING AT A TIME WHEN THE
CAR DEALERS HAVE PROFITED IT'S
NOT LIKE THEY ARE YOU KNOW
HAVING A REALLY ROUGH TIME IT'S
NOT LIKE NOBODY'S BUYING CARS IN
FACT THERE'S A SHORTAGE. OF
AVAILABLE CARS- IT AND THESE CAR
DEALERS UP BENEFITTED A LOT FROM
OF OUR PAYCHECK PROTECTION
PROGRAM LOANS- JUST TO HELP THEM
KEEP IN AND PASTE IT JUST SEEMS
IF YOU COULD JUST RESPOND TO
THIS. HOW DO WE JUSTIFY TO THE
DEGREE THAT. WE SHOULD AND-
CALIFORNIANS ARE ASKING US TO
WATCH OUT FOR THEM AS CONSUMERS
AND I JUST AND WE'RE ALSO HAVING
TO BALANCE THAT WITH WATCHING
OUT FOR BUSINESSES BUT WATCHING
OUT FOR BUSINESSES THAT NEED IT
SO. AGAIN IF YOU COULD IF
THERE'S ANOTHER WAY OF
RESPONDING TO THAT. WELL ONE OF
THE ISSUES WE SHOULD NOT ASK HIM
TO INCREASE IT OR PUT IT ON THE
PRICE OF THE CAR BECAUSE OF THE
FACT THAT EVERY DEALER WITHIN
THE FLUCTUATING FROM ONE THE
OTHER THIS IS STATUTORY APPROACH
ACROSS THE STATE SO DOESN'T
GALGIANI WANT. AND THAT'S WHY
IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO KEEP A CAP
ON IT. THANK YOU THANK CENTER
DRAWS OUT CENTER JONES. THANK
YOU MA'AM PRESIDENT I ALSO- WILL
BE SUPPORTING SB TWELVE FORTY
NINE TODAY AND I UNDERSTAND THE
CONCERNS FROM THE TWO PREVIOUS
SPEAKERS ON THE DISCLOSURE-
THAT'S PRETTY SIMPLE THE
CUSTOMER JUST NEED TO ASK THE
DEALER YOU KNOW WHAT. WHAT THESE
CHARGES COVER AND IT'S AS THE
AUTHOR SPOKE TO AND THEN AS AS
FAR AS- THE BUSINESS PRACTICES
OF THE DEALERSHIPS YOU KNOW
RIGHT NOW. I NOT JUST IN
CALIFORNIA ACROSS THE COUNTRY
DEALERS ARE STRUGGLING WITH
ACTUALLY GETTING SUPPLY. FROM
THE MANUFACTURERS AND THAT'S
WHAT WE'RE SEEING IS DRIVING UP
THE COSTS OF USED CARS AND THE
AVAILABILITY OF NEW CARS SO THE
DEALERSHIPS- THAT I KNOW ARE
WORKING VERY HARD EVERY DAY TO
INCREASE THEIR SUPPLIES SO THAT
THEY CAN- YOU KNOW BEGIN TO. I
HAVE A POSITIVE IMPACT ON THE
MARKET DRIVING DOWN TE PRICES
PARTICULAR TO SB TWELVE FORTY
NINE THIS IS AN ISSUE- THAT I
KNOW HAS BEEN IN CALIFORNIA
STATE LAW FOR A LONG PERIOD OF
TIME. BUT I REMAIN UNCONVINCED
THAT THE STATE SHOULD EVEN BE
REGULATING THIS PART OF THE
TRANSACTION AND SO I WILL BE
VOTING IN FAVOR OF BEST FULL

GOOD MORNING MEMBERS AS MANY OF

APPROXIMATELY FIVE HUNDRED AND
NINETEEN THOUSAND NINE HUNDRED

THREE POINT 8% OF THE TOTAL
HOUSING STOCK AND EQUALING
ROUGHLY ONE POINT FIVE MILLION

HALF OF THESE HOMES ARE
AFFORDABLE TO VERY LOW INCOME

THE APPROPRIATE QUALITY
STANDARDS CURRENTLY CALIFORNIA
HAS NO REQUIREMENTS FOR THE
TRAINING OR EDUCATION A MOBILE
HOME PARK MANAGERS IN MANY
INSTANCES THE PARK MANAGER MAY
BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SAFETY OF
OVER TWO HUNDRED RESIDENTS AND
SOMETIMES IN REMOTE LOCATIONS OF
OUR STATE ONGOING VIOLATIONS OF
THE LAW GENERALLY STEM FROM THE
LACK OF SUFFICIENT UNDERSTANDING
BY PARK MANAGERS OF THE MOBILE
HOME RESIDENCY LAW WHICH WE-
LOVINGLY CALL THE BIBLE. THIS
LACK OF TRAINING HAS LED TO
SITUATIONS OF UNLAWFUL EVICTIONS
IMPROPER FEES AND INVOICES
DISCRIMINATION AND POOR
MAINTENANCE WHICH GRADUALLY IF
GREATLY AFFECT THE OF LIFE IN
MOBILE HOME PARKS. AS WITH SIXTY
NINE WOULD REQUIRE MOBILE HOME
PARK MANAGERS TO BE TRAINED AND

MEMBERS YOU MAY REMEMBER THIS
BILL FROM YESTERDAY THIS WILL
ENSURE THAT EVERY TEACHER IN

BILL REQUIRE NEWLY CREATED NEWLY
CREATED CHARTER SCHOOLS. TO
PARTICIPATE IN THE CALIFORNIA
STATE TEACHERS RETIREMENT SYSTEM
CALPERS AND THE CALIFORNIA
PUBLIC EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT
SYSTEM CALPERS MEMBERS I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR AYE
VOTE THANK YOU SIR DAVID MEMBERS
ANY DISCUSSION OR DEBATE ON
SENATE BILL THIRTEEN FORTY THREE
CENTER GLAZER YOU ARE RECOGNIZED
. THANK YOU OF THIS PRESENT
NUMBERS I DIDN'T SPEAK ON THIS
BILL YESTERDAY- YOU KNOW WE
HAVE- IN THE PAST SESSION WE
HAVE HAD BIG FIGHTS ON THIS
FLOOR- IN THIS AREA FOR A PUBLIC
CHARTER SCHOOLS. AND WE ADDED
STANDARDS. TO THEM ON CONFLICT.
AND WE ADDED STANDARDS THEM ON
REPORTING AND IT WAS A BIG FIGHT
AND IN THAT DISCUSSION. IT WAS
CLEAR THAT THIS IS LIKE THE LAST
FIGHT WE ESTABLISH THESE PUBLIC
CHARTERS- WITH THE ABILITY TO
INNOVATE. AND THE ABILITY TO-
PERCENTILE. IT VANCE EXCELLENCE
IN THEIR OWN UNIQUE WAY AND IT'S
BEEN WORKING THERE ARE MORE THAN
A THOUSAND PUBLIC CHARTER
SCHOOLS IN CALIFORNIA TODAY AND
MANY OF THEM ARE THRIVING
DESPITE THE MANY CHALLENGES THAT
OUR EDUCATION SYSTEM. IS FACING
. AND SO THIS BILL IS AN ATTEMPT
TO TAKE AWAY THAT INDEPENDENT
SORTIE YEAH IT'S NOT TO SAY THAT
CHARTERS PUBLIC CHARTERS DON'T
HAVE RETIREMENT SYSTEMS THEY ALL
DO. AND MANY OF THEM I'M TOLD
90% OF THEM ARE IN CANCERS. SO
WHAT PROBLEM ARE WE TRYING TO
FIX HERE. WAS ABOUT A MONTH AGO
THAT ON THIS FLOOR WE-
RECOGNIZED OUR FORMER SENATOR
GARY HART. ON HIS PASSING HE WAS
THE ONE WHO AUTHORED THE CHARTER
SCHOOL LEGISLATION AND HE WAS.
RECOGNIZED FOR THE COURAGE AND
IN ADVANCING THIS INNOVATIVE.
PROGRAM TO HELP OUR KIDS.
AHRENDTS WANTED TO MAKE THAT
CHOICE. AND SO WE HAVE SEEN OVER
THE YEARS AND TEMPS TO TRY TO A
ROAD THAT INDEPENDENCE. AND I
DON'T THINK IT'S BEEN A HEALTHY
ACTIVITY. I THINK IT'S
REVERSING. A WONDERFUL TRADITION
THAT THE SENATE HAD ESTABLISHED
IN THAT. IN THAT LEGISLATION BY
SENATOR HART. SO THIS BILL IS
NOT ABOUT FIXING A PROBLEM WHEN
I ASKED THE SPONSORS OF THE BILL
TO KEEP EXAMPLES OF WHERE
RETIREMENT FUNDS OF PUBLIC
CHARTERS HAVE GONE UPSIDE DOWN
AND CREATED SOME CRISIS AT THIS
BILL WOULD SOMEHOW FIX. AND THE
ANSWER WAS NOTHING. THIS ISN'T
TRYING TO FIX SOME BIG PROBLEM
OUT THERE SO WHY ARE WE PASSING
A BILL LIKE THIS. AND SO I DON'T
THINK THERE IS JUSTIFICATION FOR
FORCING NEW CHARTERS TO FIT INTO
A CONSTRUCT THAT WE ACKNOWLEDGE.
IS A SPACE THAT WE WANT
INNOVATION AND I'LL
OPPORTUNITIES AND OPTIONS SO WHY
DO IT HERE- WITH THOSE REASONS I
WOULD ASK THAT WE- VOTE NO ON
THIS LEGISLATION. THANK YOU
CENTER GLAZIER. CENTER BORDERS.
I'D HAVE TO AGREE WITH MY
COLLEAGUES COMMENTS WHAT IS THE
MOTIVATION BEHIND THIS. I'VE
KNOWN FOR LAST THREE YEARS THAT
I'VE BEEN A MEMBER FOR YEARS
I'VE BEEN A MEMBER OF THIS BOARD
THIS AND THIS BODY THAT WE'VE
HAD- DRAG OUT FIGHTS ON CHARTER
SCHOOLS. AND I THINK IT REALLY
COMES DOWN TO THOSE THAT WISH
FOR THE NEW EXIST TO SERVICE
PETRI DISHES OF EVOLUTION AND- A
TRANSFORMATION EDUCATIONAL
PROCESS. AND THOSE THAT
VEHEMENTLY. WANT TO DENY THEIR
EXISTENCE. AND SO THIS IS
ANOTHER STRATEGIC MOVE FORWARD
BY DEPRIVING THESE SCHOOLS OF
THE FLEXIBILITY TO CREATE NEW
MODELS TO CREATE NEW WAYS OF
OFFERING COMPENSATION IN
ATTRACTIVENESS THAT OTHER
SCHOOLS ON THE TRADITIONAL
MODEL- FINE TO THREATENING.
LET'S NOT KID OURSELVES THIS
ISN'T ABOUT MAKING ART TEACHERS
ELIGIBLE FOR RETIREMENT IN AN
EQUITABLE KIND OF WAY THIS IS
DESIGNED TO TAKE AWAY THE
ENTICEMENT AND ATTRACTIVENESS OF
AN ALTERNATIVE MODEL. COLLEAGUES
I'M- I'M HOPEFUL THAT. THIS IS A
BILL THAT WILL RESPECTFULLY ASK
THE AUTHOR TO GO BACK TO THE
DRAWING BOARD AND COME PERHAPS
COME BACK AT SOME OTHER POINT IN
TIME WITH MORE REASONABLE-
PROPOSAL. CENTER OCTOBER. HELLO
COLLEAGUES AT MISTER CHAIR THANK
YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK
. WE HAD A VERY LIVELY
DISCUSSION ON THIS BILL- WHEN
CAME THROUGH EDUCATION BY ONE OF
THE THINGS I JUST WANTED TO
HIGHLIGHT. IS THE FACT THAT.
THIS BILL. SORT OF CONVEYS THE
NOTION THAT PERHAPS. AT CHARTER
SCHOOLS DO NOT HAVE ACCESS. TO
THESE RETIREMENT PROGRAMS
ALREADY. IN WHICH QUITE FRANKLY
THEY DO. AND AS MENTIONED BY MY
COLLEAGUE- ALSO ON THE EDUCATION
COMMITTEE CAN'T THINK OF YOUR
CITY ANTHOLOGIZED BUT- BUT AS
MENTIONED MANY OF THE CHARTER
SCHOOLS ALREADY PARTICIPATE IN
THIS PROGRAM. THE ONLY THING
THAT THIS WOULD DO IS REMOVE THE
OPTION FOR THE SCHOOLS TO CREATE
OR THINK OR OR DEVICES NEW
MODELS AS MENTIONED BY MY OTHER
COLLEAGUE- WITH REGARDS TO WHAT
SORT OF RETIREMENT AB. OPTIONS
TEACHERS MAY HAVE BUT ONCE AGAIN
CHARTER SCHOOLS ALREADY HAVE
THIS OPTION IN MANY HAVE OPTED
FOR IT ALL OF THIS BILL WILL BE
DOING TO THEM IS REMOVING THE
ABILITY TO CREATE AND INNOVATE
THE VERY ESSENCE OF WHAT CHARTER
SCHOOLS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE.
DOING SO I RESPECTFULLY WILL ASK
FOR A NO VOTE ON THIS BILL
BECAUSE I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT
TO HAVE INNOVATION NEW MODELS SO
WE CAN THINK OF AND ALLOW THEM
TO DO WHAT THEY DO BEST. THAT'S
THE ESSENCE OF CHARTER SCHOOLS
ONCE AGAIN THEY ALREADY HAVE THE
OPTION TO PARTICIPATE. ALL THIS
BILL WILL BE DOING IS REMOVING
THOSE OPTIONS AND MANDATING A
ONE SIZE FITS ALL. THANK YOU.
THANK YOU CENTER TROUBLED
SENATOR GROVE THANK YOU MR
PRESIDENT I TO JOIN MY
COLLEAGUES IN RISE IN OPPOSITION
TO THIS BILL THESE TEACHERS HAVE
A CHOICE TO WORK FOR A PUBLIC
SCHOOL TRADITIONAL PUBLIC SCHOOL
OR A PUBLIC CHARTER SCHOOL IN
THE QUEUES TO WORK FOR A CHARTER
SCHOOL BECAUSE OF THE
FLEXIBILITY THAT THEY HAVE NOT
ONLY IN THE EDUCATION PROCESS
BUT JUST ON THE WAY THEY
OPERATE. IT'S NOT A ONE SIZE
FITS ALL I CAN TELL YOU THAT
CHARTER SCHOOLS HAVE HIGHER
ATTENDANCE NUMBERS HIGHER
GRADUATION RATES IN THEIR
STUDENTS ARE SHOWN TO DO BETTER
IN COLLEGE AND THEY ALSO HAVE
HIGHER PARENT PARTICIPATION. WE
HAD A CHARTER SCHOOL A
FOUNDATION THAT STARTED A
CHARTER SCHOOL THE FIRST WHEN
THEY STARTED WAS IN A SMALL AND
MINORITY COMMUNITY JUST SOUTH OF
BAKERSFIELD IN ARVIN CALIFORNIA
WHERE I GREW UP. AND IT WAS
SUPPOSED TO BY CTA WAS OPPOSED
BY THE TEACHERS T WAS OPPOSED
BY PARENTS. BUT THEY WENT
FORWARD AND THEY MOVED- BECAUSE
OF ALL THE MISINFORMATION THAT
WAS SENT OUT TO THE COMMUNITY.
PARENTS WERE VERY VERY UPSET
ABOUT IT. BUT WHEN THEY WENT
FORWARD IT WAS FINALLY APPROVED-
THROUGH THE PROCESS. THERE IS A
WAITING LIST NOW IT'S BEEN IN
EXISTENCE FOR A THINK THIRTEEN
YEARS. AND THERE S A WAITING
LIST NOW- AND THEY BUILT TWO
ADDITIONAL SCHOOLS IN THESE
FARMING COMMUNITIES WHERE. HE'S
LIKE TINO KIDS PREDOMINATELY 99%
LATINO CHILDREN THAT ATTEND
THESE SCHOOLS AND THESE FARMING
COMMUNITIES IN ARVIN SHAFTER.
DELANO WASCO WHERE THIS
FOUNDATION IS BUILT THESE
CHARTER SCHOOLS. PARENTS ARE SO
EXCITED TO HAVE THEIR KIDS GO TO
SCHOOL THEY HAVE A HIGHER
GRADUATION RATE OF HIGHER
COLLEGE RATES. THEY HAVE- PARENT
PARTICIPATION MAY HAVE AN EDIBLE
GARDEN THAT'S BEEN ADOPTED BY A
LOT OF SCHOOLS. AND IT'S CREATED
A COMPETITION SORT OF IN THE-TRADITIONAL PUBLIC SCHOOLS
BECAUSE THE KIDS WANTTO ATTEND
THIS CHARTER SCHOOL IN THIS
AREA. AND IT'S ACTUALLY- THE
PUBLIC SCHOOLS HAVE MODEL.
ASTRUM TRAINING INSTEAD AROUND
THESE CHARTER SCHOOLS YOU KNOW
TWENTY MINUTES A CLASS VERSUS AN
HOUR FOR THE LOWER GRADE
STUDENTS SO THAT THEY CAN. HAVE
AN ATTENTION SPAN WHERE THEY
GARNER MORE INFORMATION. SOME OF
THESE KIDS. COMING AND WORKING
IN THE FIELDS FOURTH AND FIFTH
GENERATION FARMWORKERS. THEY
NEVER THOUGHT THEY'D HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO GO TO COLLEGE AND
BE SOMETHING OTHER THAN. WHAT
WAS AROUND THEM IN THEIR
COMMUNITY AND THESE KIDS ARE
VERY VERY SUCCESSFUL AND HAVING
TEACHERS THAT WANT TO ENGAGE IN
THIS PROCESS. AND HAVE AN OPTION
TO BE ABLE TO HAVE A FOUR OH ONE
K. OR TO HAVE THE AGREEMENTS
THAT THEY HAVE IN PLACE VERSUS
HAVING TO PARTICIPATING CASTERS.
THIS IS JUST AN OPTION AND IF
YOU WANT TO PARTICIPATE AS A
CHARTER SCHOOL TEACHER IN CAL
STIRS YOU CAN. AND IF YOU DON'T
WANT TO UNDER EXISTING LAW YOU
DON'T HAVE TO AND YOU CAN
PARTICIPATE IN THE PROGRAM AT
THE CHARTER SCHOOL OFFERS. JUST
LIKE MY COLLEAGUE SAID. AND THIS
BILL JUST ELIMINATES THAT OPTION
AND IT'S REALLY SAD THAT WE
WOULD DO THAT AN ATTACK THE
SCHOOLS EVEN FURTHER THAN WE
HAVE IN THIS LEGISLATIVE BODY IN
THE PAST AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR A NO VOTE. THANK YOU CENTER
GROVE SENATOR BECKER. I THANK
YOU I JUST WANNA MAKE A COMMENT
UNLIKE PRICE IN THIS PREVIOUS
SPEAKERS I DO SUPPORT THIS ONE
NEW SCHOOLS RIGHT TO HAVE A LOT
OF EXISTING NETWORKS TO HAVE A
BUILT UP ONE SYSTEM AND THIS
BILL RIGHT NOW WOULD FORCE THEM
TO THAT MAINTAIN TWO SYSTEMS
WITHIN THE SAME CHARTER
MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATION SO
THAT'S ISSUE THAT I HAVE. WITH
IT BUT WOULD SUPPORT IT- IN THE
FUTURE WITH FOR NEW CHARTERS.
THANK YOU SIR BAKER ANY OTHER
MEMBERS WISHING TO BE RECOGNIZED
. CENTER LEYVA YOU MAY CLOSE
THANK YOU MR PRESIDENT MEMBERS
THANK YOU FOR THE ROBUST
DISCUSSION I JUST WANT TO SAY
THAT I THINK- SOME FOLKS ARE
OVER THINKING THIS BILL AND THAT
THEY'RE CONFLATING SOME ISSUES I
WOULD DISAGREE WITH MY COLLEAGUE
THIS IS NOT A BIG FIGHT. AND
IT'S NOT AN ATTACK ON CHARTER
SCHOOLS CHARTER SCHOOLS WILL
STILL HAVE THEIR INDEPENDENCE
THEY WILL STILL BE ABLE TO TEACH
WHAT THEY CHOOSE TO TEACH IT
ISN'T A BIG STRATEGIC MOVE TO DO
SOMETHING DIFFERENT. ALL THIS IS
MAKING SURE THE TEACHERS WHO ARE
TEACHING OUR FUTURE OR TEACHING
OUR FUTURE LEADERS HAVE ACCESS
TO A DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION.
MANY YOUNG TEACHERS START
TEACHING AT THE AGE OF TWENTY
THREE AGE TWENTY FOUR THEY DON'T
KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A
FOUR ONE K. AND A DEFINED
BENEFIT PENSION THEY DON'T KNOW
THAT A FOUR OH ONE K. HAVE EBBS
AND FLOWS WITH THE STOCK MARKET
FOR ONE CASE ARE GREAT FOR
WEALTHY PEOPLE THEY'RE NOT GREAT
FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE WORKING
CLASS. A DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION
MEANS THAT YOU KNOW EVERY SINGLE
MONTH WHEN YOU RETIRE WHAT
YOU'LL RECEIVE AND FOR ALL OF US
ON THIS FLOOR EVERY SINGLE ONE
OF OUR STAFFERS HAVE A DEFINED
BENEFIT PENSION THROUGH CALPERS.
THIS BILL JUST MAKE SURE THAT
TEACHERS IN CHARTER SCHOOLS MORE
FEB ARE FUNDED WITH PUBLIC MONEY
ALSO HAVE THAT OPTION MEMBERS I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR AYE
VOTE THANK YOU SIR LEYVA

SENATE BILL NINE FIFTY EIGHT
CENTER LA MON. SECRETARY PLEASE
READ. SENATE BILL NINE FIFTY
EIGHT BY SENATOR LIMÓN AN ACT
RELATING TO HEALTH CARE COVERAGE
. CEREMONY THANK YOU MR
PRESIDENT COLLEAGUES S. B. THE
GOAL OF SB NINE FIVE EIGHT IS TO
ENSURE THAT PATIENTS WITH
COMPLEX AND LIFE THREATENING
ILLNESSES WHO NEED SPECIALTY
INFUSED OR INJECTED MEDICATIONS
ADMINISTERED BY A DOCTOR OR
NURSE SUCH AS CHEMOTHERAPY. CAN
RECEIVE THE NECESSARY MEDICATION
IN A SAFE AND TIMELY MANNER.
UNFORTUNATELY HEALTH PLANS HAVE
STARTED TO IMPLEMENT POLICIES
THAT RESTRICT PATIENT ACCESS TO
THESE IMPORTANT MEDICATIONS
INSTEAD OF ALLOWING THE HEALTH
CARE PROVIDER TO USE THE
MEDICATION ON HAND THE PLAN
REQUIRES THE DOCTOR TO CALL THE
HEALTH PLAN'S PREFERRED VENDOR.
THE VENDOR THEN SHIPS THE
MEDICATION TO THE HEALTH CARE
PROVIDER LABELED SPECIFICALLY
FOR THAT PATIENT THIS PROCESS IS
KNOWN AS WHITE BANKING. WHITE
BACKING CAN RESULT IN
SIGNIFICANT DELAYED TREATMENT
WHICH MAY PUT THE PATIENT'S
HEALTH AT RISK FOR EXAMPLE IN
THE SAME DAY TEST RIG IF THE
SAME DAY TEST REQUIRES A
DIFFERENT MEDICATION. THEN THE
MEDICAL PROVIDER MUST RE ORDER
THE MEDICATION AND RESCHEDULE
THE APPOINTMENT AS A RESULT THIS
CAN SIGNIFICANTLY DEBT DELAYED
TREATMENT AND IMPACTS THE HEALTH
OF THE PATIENT. WELL SOME ALLEGE
COST SAVINGS ASSOCIATED WITH
WHITE BAGGING IT SHOULD ALSO BE
NOTED THAT THERE ARE NO TANGIBLE
SAVINGS BUT RATHER A COST SHIFT
IN RECENT STUDY FOUND THAT WHITE
BAGGING COST HOSPITAL'S OVER
THREE HUNDRED AND TEN MILLION
ANNUALLY. ADDITIONALLY HOSPITALS
AND PROVIDERS ARE REIMBURSED
BASED ON AGO SHEETED CONTRACT
RATES WITH HEALTH PLANS. THE
RATES ARE MUCH. THAN THE THAN
THE MARKUPS THE EVIDENCE BY THE
ADMIN. AS EVIDENCED BY THE
AMENDMENTS IN THE SENATE HEALTH
ANALYSIS THE GOAL OF THIS BILL
IS NOT TO PROHIBIT WHITE BAGGING
COMPLETELY BUT TO PUT
APPROPRIATE GUARDRAILS AROUND
THE PRACTICE TO PREVENT DELAYED
CARE. THE OPTIMAL CARE PATIENT
DISTRESS AND UNNECESSARY
HOSPITAL ADMISSIONS THIS BILL
HAS ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT PROTECTING
PATIENTS. THIS BILL SUPPORTED BY
OVER THIRTY FIVE ORGANIZATIONS
INCLUDING MANY CHILDREN'S
HOSPITALS ACROSS THE STATE I
HAVE WITNESSED FIRST HAND HOW
WHITE BAG IN IMPACTS PATIENT
CARE. I CONTINUE TO BE IN
CONVERSATIONS WITH THE
OPPOSITION ABOUT STRIKING THE
APPROPRIATE BALANCE THAT
PROTECTS PATIENTS AND ALSO
CONTROLS COST WE JUST RECEIVED
AN AMENDMENTS THIS WEEKEND FROM
THE OPPOSITION AND WE ARE
REVIEWING THOSE AND HAVING
ADDITIONAL MEETINGS. WITH THAT I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN AYE VOTE
THANK YOU CENTER ALONE AT THE

APPROPRIATE GUARDRAILS- AROUND
COSTA OF MEDICATIONS SO- WE WILL
BE LOOKING AT AMENDMENTS IN
CONTINUING TALKS WITH THE
OPPOSITION. THE USER LEMOND
CENTER GLAZER. THANK YOU THANK

SENATOR FROM NAPA CERTAINLY
IDENTIFIED A CONCERN OF MINE AS
WELL- WEEK WE COMPLAIN A LOT
ABOUT THESE HEALTHCARE COSTS
AND- AND WHAT THAT MEANS THE TO
OUR CONSUMERS OUT THERE WHO. ARE
DESPERATELY NEED THAT TYPE OF
COVERAGE. I THINK THAT- YOU KNOW
WHAT HAS BEEN COMPELLING TO ME
IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE IS THE%
FACT THAT IT'S- IT'S NARROW TO-
INFUSED OR INJECTED MEDICATIONS
AND THE- AND TALKING TO EXPERTS
INCLUDING OUR WONDERFUL. DOCTOR
PAN WHO SERVES AS CHAIR OF THE
HEALTH COMMITTEE- HE'S MADE
CLEAR AND OTHERS HAVE MADE CLEAR
THE DELICATE NATURE OF THESE
PARTICULAR TYPES. OF DRUGS AND
THE CARE THAT THESE PARTICULAR
TYPES OF DRUGS. I NEED TO HAVE
TO BE PROPERLY ADMINISTERED. AND
SO BECAUSE IT'S NEARLY CRAFTED
FOR ME IT'S SOMETHING THAT- I
CAN I CAN ACCEPT AS A AS MAY BE
A PRUDENT- REQUIREMENT NOW. OR
ELIMINATION OF THE EVER. OF A
MANDATE. OR AN OPTION THAT- THAT
EXISTS TODAY BUT I WOULD JOIN

TO SOCIAL MEDIA. CENTER NUMBER.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT
COLLEAGUES I'M PROUD TO PRESENT
S. B. TEN FIFTY SIX THE ONLINE
VIOLENCE PREVENTION ACT. THIS IS
A BILL THAT IS PRECISELY
TAILORED TO DEAL WITH THE ISSUE
WHEN INDIVIDUALS ARE TARGETED ON
SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS WITH
THREATS OR INCITEMENT TO
IMMINENT VIOLENCE. IT DOESN'T
REQUIRES SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS
WITH USERS IN CALIFORNIA- OVER
ONE MILLION TO HAVE A PORTAL
WHERE YOU CAN REPORT- SUCH
INCIDENTS SUCH THREATS FOR SUCH
INCITEMENT TO IMMINENT VIOLENCE.
AND IF THEY DON'T TAKE THAT DOWN
THEN IT GIVES YOU- THE ABILITY
TO SEEK AN INJUNCTION- AFTER
FORTY EIGHT HOURS. IF THE SOCIAL
MEDIA PLATFORM- IS ENJOINED AND
FAILS TO TAKE DOWN THAT THREAT-
THEN THEY CAN BE HELD IN
CONTEMPT OF COURT WITH ALL THE-
WITH THE ARRAY OF PENALTIES THAT
ARE ACCESSIBLE TO COURT. IF ONE
IS HELD IN CONTEMPT WE'VE
DRAFTED THIS IN A WAY TO BE-
COGNISANT OF SECTION- TO THIRTY
OF THE- OF FEDERAL LAW- AND I
BELIEVE IT IS CONSTITUTIONAL I
BELIEVE THAT THIS IS THE RIGHT
THING TO DO AND AYE URGENT AYE
VOTE. THANK YOU CENTER AMBERG
MEMBERS DISCUSSION AND DEBATE
CENTER PAN. THE THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT CENTERS I TO RISE IN
SUPPORT OF SB TEN FIFTY SIX NOT
THANK MY GOOD FRIEND FROM SANTA
ANA FOR BRING THIS FORWARD AND
APPRECIATE HIS LEADERSHIP AS
CHAIR OF OUR JUDICIARY COMMITTEE
IN WHICH THEY HELD A HEARING
VERY IMPORTANT HEARING ON.
SOCIAL MEDIA AND AMPLIFICATION
OF HATE AND EXTREMISM- THIS I
MEAN WE CAN SEE CAN WE JUST LOOK
AT RECENT EVENTS- WE THINK ABOUT
WHAT HAPPENED AND- THE SHOOTING
BUFFALO OF- TEN- THEN AFTER
AMERICANS- WE THINK ABOUT OTHER
INCIDENTS EL PASO- EVEN HERE IN
THIS VERY CHAMBER I SHOULD
MENTION THAT- BACK IN TWENTY
NINETEEN AFTER I WAS ASSAULTED
ON THE STREET- THAT. WAS LIVE
STREAMED ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND THE
SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANY WHEN WE
NOTIFIED THEM OF THAT SAID THAT
. IT WOULD TAKE IT DOWN HIS
WASN'T VIOLENT ENOUGH EVEN THOSE
ACTUALLY PHYSICALLY ASSAULTED.
IN HE ENTERED WITH AND I THINK
WE'VE ALL SEEN WITH CERTAIN
ISSUES- SOME OF THE HEAT THAT'S
BEEN DIRECTED- AT OUR STAFF
OURSELVES- IS AS WELL NOW. IT'S
IMPORTANT THAT PEOPLE BE ABLE TO
EXPRESS THEIR VIEWS. THAT'S FINE
BUT WHEN PEOPLE ARE THREATENING
VIOLENCE- THAT IS NO LONGER IN
EXPRESSION OF USE THAT IS NOW
INTIMIDATION AND THREATS AND
UNFORTUNATELY WHILE SOCIAL MEDIA
THE SOCIAL SOCIAL MEDIA
COMPANIES ESSENTIALLY GIVE
PEOPLE WHO HAVE THOSE THOUGHTS
THE VOICE BEEN THERE BUT GIVE
THEM A AND- A MEGAPHONE. AND A
FORTUNE HAS UNDERMINED I THINK
OUR OUR DISCOURSE BECAUSE AS WE
TALK ABOUT THE FREE MARKET OF
IDEAS IT'S HARD TO EXPRESS IDEAS
WHEN YOUR LIFE'S UNDER THREAT
BUT SOMEONE ISN'T GOING TO GET
YOU ON YOUR IDEA INSTEAD THEY
TRY TO THREATEN YOUR LIFE FOR
THAT YOUR FAMILY OR OTHER PEOPLE
ARE CLOSE TO YOU. SO I THINK
THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT STEP I
THINK THE PRIME MORE STEPS NEED
TO BE TAKEN BY DO APPRECIATE THE
LEADERSHIP OF MCCARTY FROM SANTA
ANA AND SAYING LOOK WE NEED TO
TAKE THAT FIRST STEP- WE NEED
TO. BE SURE PEOPLE FEEL
COMFORTABLE AND SAFE IN FACT HOW
CAN YOU EXPRESS YOUR FIRST
AMENDMENT USE IF YOU HAVE TO
WORRY ABOUT. THREATS TO YOUR
LFE. AND SO IT'S IMPORTANT
SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANIES- TO
PREVENT SUPPRESSION OF USE. ACT
ON THREATS IMMINENT THREATS OF
VIOLENCE AND HATE AND SO I
APPRECIATE THIS- BILL- TO TAKE
SOME OF THESE FIRST STEPS-
CERTAINLY- WE NEED CONGRESS TO
ACT AS WELL BUT CERTAINLY
CALIFORNIA SHOULD CONTINUE LEAD
AND DOES A HOME OF MANY OF OUR
TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES- HOPEFULLY
THEY CAN HELP STEP UP AND- LET'S
ESTABLISH A STANDARD WHERE.
EVERYONE CAN ENGAGED ONLINE WITH
AND EXPRESS THEIR VIEWS WITHOUT
FEAR OF PERSONAL ATTACK AND-
INTERESTS THEIR LIVES I THANK
YOU AS QUICKLY AS WHEN I WROTE.
THANK YOU CENTER PANTS UNDER
NEWMAN. YEAH I'D WAS NOT
PLANNING ON SPEAKING ABOUT MY
COLLEAGUES SEGMENT A MOVIE SO I
TO HAVE BEEN THE SUBJECT OF
VIOLENT THREATS AND I'LL TELL
YOU. ONE WHICH WAS TO TAKE THE
DISTURBING WHICH I THINK
TESTIFIES TO THE VALUE THIS
BILL. IN TWENTY EIGHTEEN. TO
SOMEBODY ON SOCIAL MEDIA POSTED
A PICTURE OF MY DAUGHTER- AND
NOTED HOW MUCH FUN THEY WERE
GOING TO HAVE. WITH HER A DAY
AFTER AND I WAS NOT THE ONE WHO
SOUGHT IT ESPECIALLY MY WIFE- SO
I CALLED- WE LOOKED ON THE
SOCIAL MEDIA SITE. THERE WAS NO
OBVIOUS WAY TO PROPERLY APPRISED
AMBER BORN MAKE A COMPLAINT- SO
I CALLED THE LOBBYIST FOR THE
SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANY. WHO SAID
OH THAT'S DISTURBING- IN THE
COLUMBIA IT SAID LOOK WE'LL LOOK
INTO IT BECAUSE WE HAVE AN
EXCHANGE HAD GOOD NEWS. CENTER
NEWMAN- THE NEXT TIME THIS
GENTLEMAN SIGNS ON HE'LL GET A
MESSAGE. URGING HIM TO BE MORE
CIVIL- AND CLEARLY THAT'S NOT
ENOUGH. AND IN ANYBODY WHO'S
BEEN. IN THIS SITUATION SADLY
IT'S MORE MORE COMMON. THERE
SHOULD BE AN EASY WAY THERE
SHOULD BE A RESPONSIBILITY.
AMONG THESE COMPANIES TO TAKE
IMMEDIATE AND EFFECTIVE ACTION.
IN THESE CASES RIGHT I URGE
SUPPORT THIS BILL THANK YOU
THANK YOU CENTER NEWMAN CENTER
GROVE. THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT
A QUESTION OF THE AUTHOR.
SENATOR NUMBER WOULD YOU TAKE A
QUESTION I WOULD LOVE TO TAKE A
QUESTION PLEASE THE HAULING FROM
BAKERSFIELD THANK YOU SIR AND
WHO DETERMINES ARM WHAT DOES THE
BILL SAY ABOUT REPEATING EITHER
COMMITTEE OR IS THERE GOING TO
BE WHO DETERMINES. BECAUSE I TO
LIKE MY COLLEAGUE WHO JUST SPOKE
HAVE A- HE'S JUST CRAZY I HAVE A
CRAZY SO- THAT FOLLOWS ME AND
THAT YOU KNOW THE POLICE HAVE TO
BE ENGAGED IT'S LIKE. SO I TO
GET THAT AND I THINK WE ALL DO
SENATOR PAN- SKEWS ME I CALLING
FROM TAMPA SACRAMENTO WAS
OBVIOUSLY HIT WAS WALKING ON THE
STREET- IN THE POST ON SOCIAL
MEDIA SO I TOOK AND I'M TRYING
TO FIND A WAY. TO SUPPORT EVEN
THOSE IN OPPOSITION EVERY YOU
KNOW REQUEST ON THE BILL BUT I
WANT TO KNOW WHO MAKES THE
DETERMINATION. OF WHAT IS
CONSIDERED A VIOLENT OR A THREAT
VERSUS NOT. SO THE FIRST TIME
I'M SORRY FOR YOUR CRAZY THAT
SOMEONE. A NUMBER TWO IS THAT.
UP IS A TWO STEP PROCESS SO FOR
EXAMPLE- GIVEN THE EXAMPLE THAT
YOU JUST RAISED IS THAT. YOU
TELL THE SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANY
HEY. HERE'S WHAT'S BEEN POSTED I
VIEW THIS AS A THREAT. OF
VIOLENCE. CAN EITHER LEAVE IT UP
OR THEY CAN TAKE IT DOWN IF THEY
LEAVE IT UP. YOU CAN GO TO COURT
AND THEN THE COURT MAKES A
DECISION AS TO WHETHER OR NOT.
THIS IS OUTSIDE OF THE- AMBIT OF
THE FIRST AMENDMENT IF IT IS
OUTSIDE THE AMBIT OF THE FIRST
AMENDMENT IN OTHER WORDS
THEY'RE-ALL SPEECH IT IS NOT
WITHIN THE FIRST AMENDMENT. SO
FOR EXAMPLE SOMEONE IS
ADVOCATING THAT A VIOLENT ACT
PERPETRATED UPON YOU OR YOUR
FAMILY. THE COURT CAN THEN IN
JOINED. THE SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANY
SAYING TAKE IT DOWN IF THEY SAY
NO WE'RE NOT TAKING IT DOWN.
THEN THERE IN CONTEMPT OF COURT
CAN YOU GO BACK AND YOU ASK THE
COURT TO FIND HIM IN CONTEMPT.
IN ORDER THEM TO YOU KNOW
THERE'S AN ARRAY OF SANCTIONS UP
TO AND INCLUDING JAIL. OKAY
THANK YOU FOR THAT SO BASICALLY
IT'S NOT A GROUP IT'S- YOU CAN
ACT JUST TO CONFIRM YOU CAN
APPLY TO THE SOCIAL MEDIA
COMPANY THERE'S BEEN A THREAT
AGAINST MY FAMILY MY
GRANDCHILDREN. IS A CREDIBLE
THREAT HE SHOWS UP EVERY DAY THE
POLICE HAVE BEEN INFORMED
WHATEVER THE CASE MAY BE. AND
THEN IF THEY REFUSED TO TAKE IT
DOWN REGARDLESS OF WHAT SOCIAL
MEDIA WE CAN GO TO COURT. AND
THE JUDGE WILL MAKE THAT
DECISION THAT'S CORRECT OKAY
THANK YOU SIR FOR ANSWERING
SERVICE. CENTER EGGMAN. LET ME
HAS ALSO ASK A QUESTION THE
NUMBER WE TO QUESTION- OKAY
PLEASE PROCEED BUT THANK YOU- I
DOES THE JUDICIARY JST IN
READING OVER THIS EVERYONE GIVEN
EXAMPLES OF BEING ATTACKED AND
PEOPLE SUFFERING FROM MENTAL
HEALTH ISSUES WOULD BE A NICE
WAY TO SAY THAT- AND OTHERS AND
JUST OUT OF MEANNESS BUT DOES
THIS JUST APPLY TO ELECTED.
OFFICIALS OR RESIST APPLY FOR
EVERYBODY IT WOULD PLAY TO
ANYONE OKAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH
BECAUSE THEN I GUESS MY POINT MY
THE QUESTION I WANT THE POINT I
WANT TO MAKE IT IS NOT JUST
ABOUT US. RIGHT ONE OF THE
EPIDEMICS WE HAVE RIGHT NOW IS
SUICIDE AMONGST KIDS. I ONE OF
THE REASONS KIDS ARE COMMITTING
SUICIDE IS BECAUSE THE ONLINE
HARASSMENT AND BULLYING AND
THREATS AND SWARMING THAT
HAPPENS- AND THINK ABOUT AS HARD
AS US FOR US TO SUSTAIN THESE
THINGS AND I DON'T I HAVE BEEN
TO AND I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD
HAVE TO. PUT UP WITH IT I
CERTAINLY BELIEVE IN FREE SPEECH
SPEECH AND I. YOU KNOW I HAVE
CERTAIN UNITED STATES MILITARY
AND TAKE AN OATH TO DEFEND THE
CONSTITUTION BUT THERE IS A LINE
THAT IS HIS CROSSING WE HAVE
CROSSED THAT LINE WE HAVE BECOME
UNMOORED WHERE. UNACCEPTABLE
VIOLENCE- BE. IS TAUGHT. IT IS
UNACCEPTABLE. AND I ENCOURAGE IN
THE IN FOR THE FOR OUR CHILDREN
AND FOR NOBODY ELSE. A CHRISTIAN
AYE VOTE ON THIS BILL. THANK YOU
CENTER EGGMAN CENTER MELINDA'S.
I THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT- I
HAVE A QUESTION OF THE AUTHOR IF
I MAY TURN OVER WE TAKE A
QUESTION- YES PLEASE PROCEED
THANK YOU- I FIRST OF ALL LET ME
SAY THAT I COMPLETELY
WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE WITH THE
MEMBER FROM STOCKTON IN HER
COMMENTS- MY QUESTION- COMES
INTO. A YOU KNOW CALIFORNIA
CAN'T REGULATE WHAT SOCIAL MEDIA
COMPANIES DO NECESSARY THEY THEY
ARE REGULATED UNDER FEDERAL
AUTHORITY SO HOW IS THIS GOING
TO WORK SHOULD IT GO TO COURT I
MEAN CAN YOU SPEAK TO THAT
PLEASE BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE THE
AUTHORITY OVER THESE. PLATFORMS
RIGHT NOW. SO FOR EXAMPLE- IF
SOMEONE. POST A THREAT ON SOCIAL
MEDIA YOU SAY THE SOCIAL MEDIA
COMPANY YOU MUST TAKE IT DOWN-
THAT YOU'RE RIGHT WE ONLY HAVE
JURISDICTION CALIFORNIA COURTS
ONLY A JURISDICTION OVER
CALIFORNIA SO I SUPPOSE IF THEY
CAN TAKE IT DOWN JUST IN
CALIFORNIA THEY MAY BE IN
COMPLIANCE WITH ASSUMING THAT
THEY CAN'T. AND THEY REFUSE TO
TAKE IT DOWN THEN THE COURT CAN
HOLD THEM IN CONTEMPT OF THE
DOING BUSINESS IN CALIFORNIA
THEN AT THAT POINT IN TIME IN
THEIR SUFFICIENT MINIMUM
CONTACTS TO BE ABLE TO EXERCISE
PERSONAL JURISDICTION AS FOR ALL
YOU LAWYERS HERE- THEN THEN THEY
WOULD BE SUBJECT TO A CONTEMPT
ORDER NOW UP IS SOMEONE WHO
REFUSES TO TAKE IT DOWN GOING TO
POSE THE- DEFENSE OF FEDERAL
PREEMPTION. I'M GUESSING THAT
THEY WOULD- IS IT OUR
RESPONSIBILITY TO DO WHAT WE CAN
TO PROTECT CALIFORNIANS YES I
THINK IT IS AND SO THEREFORE I
WOULD URGE THAT WE VOTE THIS
BILL- I THINK IT IT WOULD PASS
CONSTITUTIONAL MUSTER BUT I
UNDERSTAND THAT SOME MAY
DISAGREE WITH THAT BUT I THINK
THAT IT'S TIME FOR US TO. AT A
MINIMUM TEST THAT. OKAY THANK
YOU SO MUCH FOR THE
CLARIFICATION I'M ON MY OWN TIME
I WILL JUST SAY THAT- RIGHT. I'M
NOT COMPLETELY CONVINCED THAT
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE COULD
ENFORCE AND PULL OFF THOUGH I
DON'T DISAGREE WITH THE FACT
THAT. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE
MEAN PEOPLE ARE NOT OUT THERE
THE THINGS THAT THEY SAY. IT'S A
- THE THINGS THAT THEY WOULD NOT
SAY TO SOMEONE'S FACE. IN ANY
CIRCUMSTANCE HE WOULDN'T HAVE
THE COURAGE TO SAY IT TO THEIR
FACE BUT THEY WILL CERTAINLY BE
THE KEYBOARD WARRIOR AND SAY
ANYTHING THEY CHOOSE IN ANY
MANNER WHICH THEY CHOOSE NO
MATTER WHO IT HURTS. AND THAT
INCLUDES CHILDREN SPECIFICALLY-
I REALLY WANT TO BELIEVE THAT
THIS COULD WORK I AM JUST NOT.
I'M NOT CONVINCED THAT THE
COURTS WOULDN'T SAY YOU
CALIFORNIA- OVERSTEPPING YOUR
BOUNDS THOUGH I COMMEND YOUR
EFFORTS CERTAINLY IN THE
MOTIVATION BEHIND IT- THANK YOU
MADAM PRESIDENT. THANK YOU

MAY MAY PREEMPT STATE LAW A

PLEASE READ. SENATE BILL TWELVE
NINETY FIVE BY SENATOR LIMÓN AN
ACT RELATING TO OIL AND GAS SAN
RAMON. THANK YOU MEMBERS. ONE I
COULD. THANK YOU I PRESIDENT
COLLEAGUES SB TWELVE NINETY FIVE
ADDRESSESTHE SERIOUS PROBLEM OF
DESERTED WELLS IN CALIFORNIA
DESERTED WELLS- FINANCIAL
LIABILITY TO THE STATE AND
DANGEROUS TO THE SURROUNDING
ENVIRONMENT AND RESIDENTS. THE
WELLS CAN LEAD TO GRADING AIR
QUALITY IN CONTAMINATED AQUIFERS
HARMING THE SURROUNDING
COMMUNITY. JUST LAST WEEK THERE
WAS NEWS OF TWO OF CALIFORNIA'S
THIRTY FIVE THOUSAND IDLE WELLS
LEAKING LARGE AMOUNTS OF METHANE
INTO A COMMUNITY IN BAKERSFIELD
ONE WELL WAS LEAKING AT A
MINIMUM OF FIFTY THOUSAND PARTS
PER MILLION. THE MAXIMUM LEVEL
THE DEVICE COULD RECORD. THIS
BILL ADDRESSES THE MASSIVE NEED
FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING FOR
PLUGGING AND ABANDONING THESE
ORPHAN WELLS AND ENSURING
INDUSTRY ALSO HAS A PART TO PLAY
IN FUNDING FOR THE PLUGIN PLUGIN
OF ABANDONING THESE WELLS. SB
TWELVE NINETY FIVE WOULD REQUIRE
THAT THE MONEY THAT WHEN MONEY
IS ALLOCATED THROUGH THE GENERAL
FUND AND ONLY THROUGH THE
GENERAL FUND. TO PAY FOR
PLUGGING AND ABANDONING CAL JAM
CAN COLLECT AND SPEND AN
ADDITIONAL AMOUNT FROM INDUSTRY
. IN THE LAST TWO YEARS THE OIL
INDUSTRY HAS SET RECORD BREAKING
PROFITS IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF
TWENTY TWENTY TWO. THE LARGEST
PRODUCERS MADE CLOSE TO A
HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS. AS
PRESIDENT BIDEN HAS SAID THE OIL
COMPANIES COULD EASILY GIVE THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE A BREAK BY
PASSING SOME OF THE SAVINGS. ON
TO THEIR CUSTOMERS I LOOK
FORWARD TO CONTINUING TO WORK
WITH THE OPPOSITION. I WANT TO
FIND A SOLUTION TO ADDRESS SOME
OF THEIR CONCERNS WHILE ALSO
ENSURING THAT IF CALIFORNIA
TAXPAYERS. TAXPAYER DOLLARS ARE
USED IN PLUGGING AND ABANDONING
WELLS WE ALSO FIND A WAY TO
ENSURE THAT INDUSTRY INDUSTRY
HAS PARTICIPATION IN BY. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN AYE
VOTE. THANK YOU CENTER LOAN
MEMBERS DISCUSSION OR DEBATE.
SEEING AND HEARING. CENTER GROVE
. THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT I
RESPECTFULLY I REQUEST A NO VOTE
ON THIS PARTICULAR PIECE OF
LEGISLATION D. AT CAL JIM
CONTACTED ME DIRECTLY AND THAT
THE CLAIMS THAT THIS YEAR CLUB
MADE ABOUT THOSE PARTICULAR-
ABANDONED WELLS OR FROM WELLS IN
ARVIN IN MY COLLEAGUES- DISTRICT
AT WAS NOT TRUE THEY WENT OUT
THERE THE TICKET TEAM OUT THERE
THE DETERMINE THAT WHAT THEY
CLAIMED- IN THE COMPLAINT- IN
THE PUBLIC ARENA WAS NOT TRUE.
AND THAT THEY DID ADDRESS IT AND
THAT THEY HAVE COME TO AN
AGREEMENT TO ABANDON THOSE WELLS
PROPERLY AND SO THAT'S THE FIRST
TIME THE OTHER THING IS THAT WE
HAVE HAD EXTENUATING CONVERSE
ALONG LENGTHLY CONVERSATIONS I
THINK ON THE REAL PROBLEM THAT
WE HAVE WITH ORPHANED AND
ABANDONED WELLS- A LOT OF THEM
ARE SMALL INDEPENDENT PRODUCERS
THAT AND- I THINK THEIR
GENERATIONAL HIS THE BEST WAY TO
EXPLAIN IT SO THE GRANDFATHER
HAS AND PASS AND TO THE YOU KNOW
THAT THE DAD THE DAD TO THE
SENATE NOW THIS. TWO CENT OR
THREE CENTS AND THE SISTER IS A
NEW YORK ATTORNEY OR SOMETHING
DR IN SAN FRANCISCO OR WHATEVER
THEY HAVE NO DESIRE TO EVEN DEAL
WITH THESE ISSUES THAT ARE GOING
ON SO WE DO NEED CALCIUM TO BE
ABLE TO AN ISSUE CONTRACTS TO BE
ABLE TO- AT ADDRESS THESE
ORPHANED AND ABANDONED WELLS THE
WAY THAT THEY SHOULD BE
ABANDONED- CORRECTLY IN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA I HAVE NO
DISAGREEMENT WITH THAT
WHATSOEVER. BUT I DO HAVE AN A
DISAGREEMENT ON IS THAT THE
BILLS THAT ARE PASSED IN THIS
ACT IN THIS BODY
DISPROPORTIONATELY AFFECT THE
SMALL PRODUCER. NOW LIKE MY CAR
SAID THERE ERROR KNOW LAW PROF.
AS YOU KNOW THEY WANT SOME KIND
IN ALICE'S GIVE PEOPLE MONEY
BACK AT THE PUMP AND THE WHOLE
BIT. WE SOME RANDOM OIL COMPANY
IN KERN COUNTY DOES NOT SET. THE
FUEL PRICE IT SET BY SUPPLY AND
DEMAND IT'S SET GLOBALLY MOSTLY
BY OPEC AND THEN THEY DETERMINE
THE COST PER BARREL. SOME RANDOM
OIL COMPANY IN KERN COUNTY DOES
NOT SET A PRICE PER BARREL.
THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO
ABOUT IT AND THEN WHEN THAT
SUPPLIER THAT PRODUCER SELLS
THREE FINERAN THEY REFINE THE
GASOLINE. AND THEN THAT GOES TO
IT I DOES SEVEN ELEVEN FASTER
FOREVER WHERE YOU PURCHASE YOUR
FUEL. AND THEY HAVE NO CONTROL
OVER THAT PRICE WHETHER IT'S SET
ON A GLOBAL SCALE AT FORTY
DOLLARS A BARREL- HUNDRED FIFTY
DOLLARS A BARREL. AND THEY HAVE
NO CONTROL OVER THAT PRICE.
AGAIN THE ARTICLE THAT CAME OUT
FROM THE SIERRA CLUB WAS
INCORRECT AND IT WAS AND CAL JIM
BITTERMANN IT WAS NOT CORRECT
BUT THEY HAVE ADDRESSED THE
ISSUE. AND THEY ARE MOVING
FORWARD TO DO THAT. AND THE
BIGGEST ISSUE WE HAVE. AN WITH
THESE ORPHANED AND ABANDONED
WELLS IF THERE ARE MAJOR
COMPANIES IN THIS STATE THE
KERRY THE- THE BURDEN I GUESS
YOU WOULD SAY. OF HAVING THE
MOST WELLS. BUT WE DON'T MAKE
THEM PARTICIPATE IN THIS PROGRAM
THEY'RE EXCLUDED OBVIOUSLY
BECAUSE THERE ARE THE THREE
LARGEST COMPANIES IN THE STATE.
AND A LOT OF THESE COMPANIES
THESE THREE LARGE COMPANIES THEY
COULD A POST A BOND FOR THIRTY
MILLION LIKE A BILL THAT THAT MY
COLLEAGUE THE AUTHOR OF THIS
BILL HAD. THIRTY MILLION THEY
CAN GET A LETTER OF CREDIT FOR
THE BANK THEY COULD DO SOMETHING
IN THE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS
BILLIONS OF DOLLARS AND IT WOULD
NOT EVEN BE A BLIMP. ON THEIR
FINANCIAL RADAR SCREEN. THE
SMALL COMPANIES THAT THIS BILL
ADVERSELY AFFECTS. JUST CREATE
ANOTHER REASON WHY PEOPLE WOULD
JUST WALK AWAY FROM THEIR SMALL
PRODUCERS. YOU HAVE A COMPANY-
IN TAFT FOR EXAMPLE FIFTY
GENERATION I THINK THEY HAVE
FOURTEEN WELLS. AND IT'S LIKE A
JOB TO YOU IN ME LIKE WE GET
PAID A CERTAIN SALARY EVERY
YEAR. THIS FAMILY FOR THE LAST
SEVERAL GENERATIONS HAS RAISED
THEIR KIDS AND GRANDKIDS ON
THESE WELLS. AND THEY PROBABLY
MAKE TWO OR THREE OR FOUR
THOUSAND DOLLARS A YEAR IT'S YOU
KNOW A FAIRLY DECENT GOOD INCOME
IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA THERE
NO BY NO MEANS BILLIONAIRES OR
MILLIONAIRES. THERE NO MEANS
EIGHT BY NO MEANS A LARGE
CORPORATION. BUT TO COME UP WITH
THE BOND FOR EACH WELL FOR
PROBABLY THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS
WHICH AGAIN IS JUST ANOTHER
PIECE OF LEGISLATION THAT PASSED
NOT THIS ONE. YOU HAVE TALK
EVERYTHING THEN YOU CAN'T EVEN
GET A BANKER SOMEONE TO PROVIDE
THAT BOND TO THEM SO WHAT DO
THEY DO IF NO THEY CAN'T EVEN
OPERATE THEIR OWN FACILITY THAT
HAS PRAYED FOR THEIR- FAMILY IS
A REGULAR INCOME IN A JOB TO
THEM FOR SEVERAL GENERATIONS.
THIS PARTICULAR PIECE OF
LEGISLATION I'M THAT WE'RE
DEALING WITH HERE JUST A DAY
INCREASES THE COST FOR THE SMALL
INDEPENDENT PRODUCERS. I HAVE
SAID OVER AND OVER AND OVER
AGAIN WITH MY COLLEAGUES FROM
MALIBU AND MY COLLEAGUE THAT HAS
PRESENTED THIS BILL. I WILL WORK
WITH YOU AS REPRESENTATIVE OF
THE 70% OF THE OIL AND FOSSIL
FUELS IT IS COMPLETED IN THE
STATE TO DO SOMETHING FAIR AND
EQUITABLE. TO ADDRESS THESE
ORPHANED AND ABANDONED WELLS
BECAUSE WE DO NEED TO ADDRESS
THEM BUT WE HAVE TO STOP
ATTACKING THE SMALL AND MID
LEVEL PRODUCERS. THERE ARE MORE
PEOPLE THAT OPERATE AND PROVIDE
JOBS IN THIS STATE WITH
CONTRACTORS AND EVERYTHING THAT
DO NOT HAVE. THE RESOURCES THAT
THESE THREE MAJOR COMPANIES DO
IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA SO I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR A NO VOTE
AND I WILL COMMIT TO WORK WITH
ANYBODY. ON THIS FLOOR. TO
ADDRESS THE ISSUE THAT WE HAVE
WITH ORPHAN IN A WELLS WE NEED
TO DO IT IN A WAY THAT DOES NOT
HURT. THE MIDDLE LEVEL OR SMALL
PRODUCER I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR
ANTHER. BIG CENTER GROVE CENTER
BECKER. THANK YOU YOUR AGE WHEN
I. REFER TO THAT ARE GONNA
SUPPORT IN OUR- STATEMENT HERE
SAYS THE CALIFORNIA COUNCIL
SCIENCE TECHNOLOGY ESTIMATED.
CALIFORNIA HAS FIVE THOUSAND
FIVE HUNDRED FORTY WELLS WITHOUT
A VIABLE OPERATOR. AN ESTIMATED
MAYBE AN ADDITIONAL SIXTY NINE
THOUSAND FORTUNE TWENTY FIVE
WELLS. ECONOMICALLY MARGINAL
THAT COULD BECOME DESERTED IN
THE NEAR FUTURE. HIS ALLOWING
CALCIUM TO COLLECT THESE FUNDS
FOR THE OIL INDUSTRY. GLASSES
STATE TO LEVERAGE THE PUBLIC
FUNDS WITH PRIVATE INVESTMENTS
BUT IT'S WE'RE TALK ABOUT.
LEVERAGING THE POP THE PUBLIC
FUNDS WITH PRIVATE INVESTMENT.
TO ENSURE. THAT THE COSTS ARE
NOT ALL PASSED ON TO THE
TAXPAYER SO. I DO TRUST YOU
AUTHOR GIVEN THE BENEFIT OUT TO
CONTINUE TO WORK MAKE SURE
SENSITIVE TO THE CONCERNS ON
SMALL. SMALL PRODUCERS. IN THIS
NOT ABOUT CUTTING WILL
PRODUCTION THE STATE THIS IS
REALLY ABOUT CAP IN THESE WELLS
THAT MANY INTERNAL VIBE OPERATOR
WILL NOT HAVE A VIABLE OPERATOR.
IN THE NEAR FUTURE WE NEED A
SOLUTION AND JUST ABOUT
LEVERAGING PUBLIC MONEY WITH
PRIVATE MONEY. THANK YOU CENTER
BECKER CENTER DOLLY. THANK YOU
MADAM PRESIDENT MEMBERS I RISE
IN OPPOSITION I SET ON SIDE TO
WITH A COUPLE OF MY COLLEAGUES
AND WE GET TO ACTUALLY ASK CAL
JIM ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH
ORPHAN WELLS THERE HAS BEEN A
PART OF MONEY THAT HAS BEEN SET
ASIDE TO DEAL WITH ORPHANED
WELLS IN CALIFORNIA. BY LARGE
PRODUCERS AND SMALL PRODUCERS.
THE PROBLEM IS THAT EVERY YEAR
SINCE I'VE BEEN HERE ON THE SITE
TO COMMITTEE. CALLAGY INCOMES
AND ASKED FOR MORE POSITIONS
ACTUALLY IMPLEMENT THE WORKING
CAN'T GET THE WORK DONE. THAT'S
FOR SIXTY POSITIONS THIS YEAR
SIXTY POSITION LAST YEAR AND THE
ONLY HARD LIKE TEN POSITIONS.
COLLAGEN IS A FAILURE WHEN IT
COMES TO DOING ORPHAN WELLS AND
ENFORCEMENT THERE IS PLENTY OF
MONEY IN THE SYSTEM ALREADY TO
GO OUT AND CAP THESE WELLS AND I
PASSED EVERY YEAR FOR THEM TO
GIVE US A REPORT AND NOT THE-
CRICKETS. BUT THERE CONTINUE TO
HIRE MORE AND MORE PEOPLE AT THE
EXPENSE OF THE- OIL PRODUCERS
WHO PAY INTO THAT PROGRAM. AT
THE SAME TIME WE HAVE A THOUSAND
WELLS WAITING TO BE PERMITTED AT
CAL JIM AT THE SAME TIME. SO
THIS BILL WILL DO NOTHING
WHETHER IT PASSES OR FAILS WHICH
I BELIEVE IT WILL PASS WILL DO
NOTHING TO CAP ORPHAN WELLS
UNTIL WE FIX. CAL JIM. IT IS THE
PROBLEM. AND EVERY YEAR WE KEEP
THROWING MORE MONEY AT AND KEEP
PASSING MORE LAWS AND NOTHING
HAPPENS IT'S LIKE THE E. D. D.
THAT THE STATE OPERATES. IT'S
LIKE THE DMV. ALL THESE THINGS I
WANT TO COST RIGHT NOW DON'T
WORK AND WE DEAL WITH IT IN OUR
OFFICES. THE MEMBERS THAT SAID
ON SAID TO HAVE ASKED THESE
QUESTIONS EVERY YEAR WE GET THE
SAME. THANK BACK NOTHING THIS
BILL WILL DO NOTHING UNTIL WE
FIXED CAL JIM THAT IS BROKEN.
ADMINISTRATION NEED TO PUT
PRESSURE ON THEIR RUNNING THIS
AND THEY'RE NOT DOING IT THE
FACT. FOR THOSE REASONS I WILL
OPPOSE THIS BILL BECAUSE IT WILL
DO NOTHING TO HELP FIX THE
ORPHAN WELLS THAT WE NEED TO FIX
IN CALIFORNIA THAT HAVE BEEN
ABANDONED. FOR GENERATIONS.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT THANK
YOU CENTER DOLLING CENTER HER
TADO. THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT
I HAVE A QUESTION FOR THE AUTHOR
CEREMONY TO GO QUESTION SURE
PLEASE PROCEED. WHAT DO WE HAVE
AN UPDATE IN TERMS OF IT.
REPORTING THAT THAT IS IT IN
TERMS OF FIND THE LOCATION OF
ORPHAN WELLS I KNOW IN A
CRESCENTA SUPPORT FROM EVERYBODY
ON THIS FLOOR LAST YEAR FOR SB
EIGHTY FOUR. ARE BOTH PART OF
THE REPORT PART OF TAT BILL
INCLUDED GETTING AN UPDATED
REPORT OF WHERE. YOU KNOW ALL
THESE ORPHANED WELLS ARE LOCATED
THROUGHOUT THE STATE AND HAVING
AN ASSESSMENT I JUST. PERSONALLY
I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE. WITH
WHAT. YOU KNOW I DID I DO
BELIEVE THAT WE SIT ON THE ON
THE ON THE SAME PAGE LIKE FOR ON
THE SAME PAGE IN TERMS OF THE
COMPANY'S ORPHANED WELLS BUT THE
PART OF THE CHALLENGE OF PROBLEM
IS ACCOUNTABILITY. GOING TO WHAT
ARE CALLING JUST SAID THAT WE
NEED A WHOLE. CAL JIM
ACCOUNTABLE I MEAN. SB EIGHTY
FOUR I HOPING WOULD HELP WITH
THAT BUT I THINK IT ALSO TAKES
OUR EFFORTS TO. GO BACK TO MY
QUESTION IS DO WE HAVE ANY KIND
OF UPDATE ARE THEY WERE EXPECTED
TO PROVIDE A REPAIR AN UPDATE IN
APRIL AND SO I WAS JUST
WONDERING IF YOU KNEW. ANYTHING
IN REGARDS TO THAT. SO CAL JAM A
DOES A REPORT PUBLISHED. AN IDOL
WELL REPORT PUBLISHED ANNUALLY
AND SO THERE IS AN APPENDIX-
THAT HAS ALL THE COUNTIES IN ALL
THE IDLE AND DESERTED WELLS. SO
THAT IS AN ANNUAL REPORT AND
THAT WE HAVE AVAILABLE TO US AND
THAT IS WHAT WE'RE WORKING ON.
SIT AT THE PROVIDER REPORT TO
YOU. THIS IS A THIS IS THIS IS
NOT A REPORT PROVIDED TO ME THIS
IS A REPORT THAT THEY DO
ANNUALLY THAT ANYONE OF US CAN
ACCESS. THROUGH CAL JIM. OKAY
THANK YOU. IT'S A PUBLIC REPORT
JUST TO BE CLEAR. OVER HERE.
THANK YOU CENTER LAYERED I DID
SEE YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
MADAM PRESIDENT. I WANTED TO
OFFER SOME FACTS ABOUT THIS THE
GLOBAL SITUATION THAT SURROUNDS
THIS BILL R. ONE IS THAT IT ONE
OF THE KEY THINGS AND CLIMATE
EFFORTS IS TO DEAL WITH SHORT
TERM CLIMATE POLLUTANTS IT'S
ESTIMATED THAT 9213% ALL OF THEM
IN CALIFORNIA COM FROM WELLS IN
THIS CATEGORY SO FOR GOING TO
HAVE CLIMATE EFFORTS WE HAVE TO
DEAL WITH THIS SECOND. ARE THERE
IS A CAP THERE'S ONLY A CERTAIN
AMOUNT I THINK IT'S THREE
BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR THAT CAN
BE SPENT ON THIS PURPOSE AND NOW
WE HAVE THE AVAILABILITY OF
FEDERAL FUNDS. THAT MIGHT TAKE
IT UP TO AS HIGH AS A HUNDRED
AND EIGHTY MILLION BUT UNLESS WE
PASS THIS BILL OR ANOTHER BILL.
THAT BLOWS OFF THE CAP WE CAN'T
DO WITH THE MONEY THAT COMES IN
TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM FOR WHICH
IT WAS INTENDED. ADDITIONALLY A
LOT OF US HAVE BEEN HAVING TALKS
ABOUT MAKING SURE THAT THEIR
LABOR PROTECTIONS. IN ALL THE
PIECES OF CLIMATE WORK. AND THE
LABOR PROTECTIONS IN THIS
CATEGORY ARE SO UNIQUE BECAUSE
AS WAS POINTED OUT BY. BY ONE
SPEAKER SOME OF THESE PROJECTS
ARE REALLY SMALL. SO HAVING
REQUIREMENTS ON. INDIVIDUAL
PROJECTS IS NOT NECESSARILY
VIABLE AND SO THERE'S REALLY
BEEN. A FRAMEWORK SET OUT TO
CLUMP THEM TOGETHER TO DO IT IN
A WAY THAT ADDRESSES THE LABOR
ISSUES. BUT RESPECTS THE FACT
THAT SOME OF THESE PROJECTS ARE
SMALL. AND LASTLY BECAUSE OF
THESE LEVELS OF COMPLEXITY. THE
AUTHOR HAS BEEN. WORKING WITH
MANY STAKEHOLDERS AND IT'S CLEAR
WILL CONTINUE TO WORK. POSSESS
SOME OF THESE ISSUES ARE RAISED
IT'S VERY IMPORTANT TO MAKE SURE
THEIR CORPORATION. SO I THINK
THIS IS AN IMPORTANT BILL. TO
MOVE THIS ISSUE WHERE IT IS
WORTH THE MONEY MOVE IT IS WHERE
THE LEGALITY OF ALLOWING THE
AGENCY. TO BE ABLE TO ADDRESS
IT. AND ADDRESS LABOR
PROTECTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN
AMENDED DIRECTLY INTO THIS BILL.
M. THE AUTHOR IS STILL WILLING
TO WORK. ON ISSUES THAT. PEOPLE
MIGHT HAVE BECAUSE IT'S SO
IMPORTANT TO GET SOME OF THIS
DONE. THAT IT'S VERY IMPORTANT
THAT THERE BE A VEHICLE AND A
CONVERSATION THIS BILL IS THE
VEHICLE TO GET THESE THINGS DONE
TO MOVE WITH THE ADDITIONAL
MONEY AND LABOR PROTECTIONS. IT
IS THE VEHICLE TO CONTINUE THE
CONVERSATION I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR AN AYE VOTE. THANK. YOU
CENTER LAYERED THUNDERSTORMS. AT
THE YOU MADAM. I RISE IN SUPPORT
OF THIS MEASURE- AND I THOUGHT
IT MIGHT HELP TO GIVE A LITTLE
BIT OF HISTORY WE'RE WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT. THIS MOVIE- THE
FAILINGS PERHAPS OF A STATE
AGENCY. WE REFORMED IN FACT IF
THE FORMER STATE AGENCY DOG OR
TO. TO BECOME THIS NEW- JIM FOR
THE STATE CAL JIM- SO WE SPENT A
LOT OF TIME TALKING ABOUT HOW TO
HOLD THE AGENCY ACCOUNTABLE OR
OR BLAMING GOVERNMENT BUT TO
GIVE YOU ALL A LITTLE CONTEXT
ESPECIALLY MY FRIENDS IN THE
CENTRAL VALLEY WHO WERE
CONCERNED ABOUT SMALL OPERATORS.
UNDER CALIFORNIA LAW. ANY WELL
OWN PRIOR TO NINETEEN NINETY SIX
THAT OWNER. THAT PREVIOUS OWNERS
NOT LIABLE. THE FUNDAMENTAL
PROBLEM IN CALIFORNIA LAW IS
THAT BIG OIL PASSED THE BUCK TO
THE SMALL GUYS INSULATED
THEMSELVES FROM LIABILITY IN
NINETEEN NINETY SIX THANKS TO
LEGISLATION PASSED BY NOW
CONGRESSMAN JIM COSTA. THAT
EXEMPTS THE OIL INDUSTRY FROM
ANY LIABILITY FOR WELLS ON PRIOR
SITTING HERE TRYING TO PLUG A
HOLE IN A SYSTEM THAT WE CREATED
A HOLE IN IN THE FIRST PLACE. SO
I WOULD SUBMIT TO MEMBERS I
APPRECIATE ALL THE FRUSTRATION
WITH THE LACK IN THE PACE OF
WORK. AND I MET MY COLLEAGUE
FROM FROM THE NORTH. WHO WHO I
SAT ON BUDGET SUB WITH. AND BEEN
FRUSTRATED WITH- THE PACE OF
WORK THAT'S GOING ON BECAUSE
TRUST ME WE HAVE THESE ABANDONED
WELLS ALL OVER LOS ANGELES TWO.
AND WE HAVE VITAL WELLS. IT JUST
SPRUNG A LEAK IN OUR BACKYARD
AND SPILLED OIL ALL OUT ON THE
STREETS PICO AND DOHENY ABOUT A
MONTH AND A HALF AGO. SO
BAKERSFIELD ARVIN AREN'T ALONE.
BUT UNTIL WE COLLECTIVELY LOOK
TO THE BIG PLAYERS WHO HAVE
PROFITED FOR MANY MANY DECADES
OFF OF THESE FIELDS AND THEN
CONVENIENTLY EXEMPTED THEMSELVES
FROM LIABILITY AND NOW HAVE ALL
THE SMALL OPERATORS SAYING IT'S
NOT OURS LET THEM SORT IT OUT OR
LET THE TAXPAYERS PAY FOR IT
THAT'S WHERE I THINK THE WORK
NEEDS TO BE DONE NOW. I
APPRECIATE THE AUTHOR'S EFFORTS
HERE AND I OFFERED TO HER EARLY
ON N THIS SESSION THAT
AMENDMENT TO SAY WE COULD STRIKE
ACOSTA AMENDMENT IN CALIFORNIA
LAW. AND THEN THAT. BUT TO HER
CREDIT I THINK SHE'S BEEN TRYING
TO FIND SOME KIND OF COMPROMISE
TO GET OFF THIS FLOOR TO BRING
FOLKS ON BOARD WHO MIGHT BE
WORRIED ABOUT. WHAT WHISPER HAS
TO SAY ABOUT A BILL. I DON'T
WORRY ABOUT BUT I APPRECIATE
THAT WE'VE HAD TO STRIKE SOME
KIND OF COMPROMISE HERE- BUT I
WILL I WILL ADMIT THAT THIS BILL
WILL NOT SOLVE THE WHOLE ISSUE
IT WILL CHIP AWAY AT THE PROBLEM
IT WILL PUT IMPORTANT GUARDRAILS
IN PLACE AND ENSURE THAT
DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES ARE
PRIORITIZED. IN THIS PROCESS
THAT THOSE WHO HAVE THE OLDEST
WELLS CLOSEST TO PEOPLE ARE
GOING TO BE HELPED OUT SO
WHETHER YOU'RE IN SOUTH LA OR
URINE ARVIN ARE YOU UP IN
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA YOUR PEOPLE
ARE MOST IN HARM'S WAY ARGAN BE
PRIORITIZED BY THIS LEGISLATION
I THINK THE CAP IN THE LABOR
PROTECTIONS MAKES SENSE FOR THE
TIME BEING BUT IF WE REALLY WANT
TO TACKLE THIS ISSUE MEMBERS.
WE'VE GOT A LOOK BACK TO
NINETEEN NINETY SIX AND SAY WHY
SUDDENLY. IS EVERYONE MAGICALLY
EXEMPT FROM LIABILITY. WHO'S
PROFITED BILLIONS UP TO THAT
POINT. SO I WOULD ENCOURAGE US
AS WE MOVE THIS MEASURE TODAY TO
TAKE ON THE BIG WORK THAT NEEDS
TO BE DONE. THANK YOU CENTER
STERN CENTER DOLLY. THANK YOU
MADAM PRESIDENT FOR INDULGING ME
I JUST WANT TO GO ON RECORD
BECAUSE THERE'S BEEN SOME NEW
INFORMATION PUT OUT THAT. PRE
NINETEEN NINETY SIX THERE'S A
PER OIL FEE. THAT HAS BEEN PUT
ON TO TAKE CARE OF THE
REMEDIATION OF THOSE WELLS PRIOR
TO NINETY NINE NINETEEN NINETY
SIX THAT'S THE POINT. THERE'S
MONEY IN THE BUDGET TO DO IT AND
IT'S NOT BEING DONE LAST YEAR.
THEY TOOK I THINK WAS LAST YEAR
TEN MILLION DOLLARS DEPARTMENT
OF FINANCE FINANCE TOOK OUT OF
THE FUND. WHILE WELLS INSTANCE
SOMEWHERE ELSE THOSE ARE THE
PROBLEMS WE HAVE WITH. WITH THIS
THIS LEGISLATION IS THAT THERE'S
MONEY THERE TO DO IT. IT'S JUST
NOT GETTING DONE. THANK YOU
CENTER DOLLY MEMBERS FURTHER
RESEARCH CENTER GROVE THANK YOU
IN JUST TO CORRECT THE RECORD-
JUST TO CORRECT THE RECORD THERE
WAS TEN MILLION DOLLARS IT WAS
TAKEN OUT OF THE IDYLLWILD
SIGNED TO BE ABLE TO FIND OTHER
OTHER THINGS OTHER THAN I TO
WILSON THAT WE'RE ALL VERY
CONCERNED ABOUT. AND JUST TO BE
CLEAR NOT ONE NOT ONE IF
SOMEBODY CAN PROVE ME WRONG I
WOULD LOVE IT BUT NOT ONE
TAXPAYER PINI. HAS GONE TO
SIXTIES OR FIND A BUYER I DO
WELL SO THAT NEEDS TO BE
CORRECTED. BECAUSE BUSINESS
OWNERS INDUSTRY ARE TAXPAYERS.
SO THEY PAY FOR THIS INDUSTRY
FUNDS THIS ONE HUNDRED PERCENT.
101% INDUSTRY FINDS CAL JIM. AND
IF YOU GUYS WOULD JUST. WE CAN
AGAIN I'VE OFFERED I KNOW
SENATOR DOLLY WOULD JOIN S. THAT
WE COULD COME UP WITH A SOLUTION
THAT DOES NOT DISPROPORTIONATELY
AFFECT THE SMALL AND MID SIZE
PRODUCERS. AND WE COULD MOVE
FORWARD AND FIX THE PROBLEM ALL
THE PROBLEMS IN MALIBU IN THE
BEACH AREA. THE ONES THAT WE
HAVE IN KERN. AND BUT YOU CAN'T
SHUT DOWN THE MID SIZE AND MID
LEVEL PRODUCERS AND SMALL
PRODUCERS. AND HAVE THE
CONVERSATION TO MOVE FORWARD IT
JUST DOESN'T WORK YOU'RE GOING
TO DOUBLE THE AMOUNT OF ORPHANED
AND ABANDONED IDLE WELLS THAT
YOU HAVE IN THIS STATE. AND WHAT
ARE YOU GONNA DO YOU THINK THE
MAJORS ARE GOING TO PAY FOR IT
THEY'RE NOT. HIS THEY KEPT THOSE
DEALS IN THEY HAVE THEIR OWN.
WHERE THEY MOVE FORWARD AND THEY
SET UP THEIR OWN ABANDONED OR
FROM OFTEN THEY DON'T EVEN
PARTICIPATE IN THE STATE PROJECT
. SO I JUST ASK YOU GUYS TO JUST
SIT ON THIS BILL. LET'S WORK ON
A PROJECT THAT WORKS I PROMISE
TO COMMITTEE LET'S FIX IT SO
THAT WE CAN ADDRESS THIS ISSUE
ONCE AND FOR ALL. AND THEN LET'S
LOOK AT CARBON EMISSIONS AND
CARBON CAPTURE AND LET'S LOOK AT
CARBON EMISSIONS AND CO TWO
THAT'S GOING INTO THE ATMOSPHERE
BY IMPORTING OIL. YOU SEE YOU
CARE ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT AND
THERE ARE MILLIONS OF METRIC
TONS FOR ONE SHIP COMING FROM
SAUDI ARABIA. AND WE COULD
PRODUCE IT HERE THE WE CONTROL
THE ENVIRONMENT WE CONTROL THAT
THE WAY THEY DID THE REGULATORY
PROCESSES. IT'S THE BEST
SOLUTION AND I JUST CHALLENGE
ALL OF YOU GUYS TO JUST. OPPOSE
THIS BILL AGAIN RESPECTFULLY
ASKING FOR A NO VOTE. THE CENTER
GROVE MEMBERS FURTHER TO SENATOR
WHITE HOUSE SKI. THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT. I WANT TO REITERATE.
THE POINT THAT WAS MADE BY THE
FORMER US SECRETARY OF NATURAL
RESOURCES. NOW I KNOW MOST
PEOPLE DON'T KNOW THAT WE HAVE
THIS OIL GAS AND GEOTHERMAL
ADMINISTRATIVE FINES WHICH- THE-
OIL COMMUNITY PAYS INTO. BUT
WHAT PEOPLE DON'T REALIZE IS
THAT THEY HAVE A CAP OF FIVE
MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR WHICH-
ONCE UPON A TIME WAS PROBABLY
SOME MONEY TO DO SOME. CAPPING
OF THESE ABANDONED WELLS BUT
IT'S ENOUGH AND BURGER RIGHT NOW
IT'S A FEW IT'S A HANDFUL WELLS
THE KIDS CAPT. IN THIS UNIVERSE.
THERE ARE THE ABANDONED WELLS
WERE WE DON'T HAVE RESPONSIBLE
PERSON WE'RE WE KNOW THAT THEIR
LEAKING THERE MAY BE FACILITIES
THAT ARE LEAKING. THAT'S ONE
WORLD THAT WE HAVE THIS IDLE
WELLS WITH PEOPLE HAVING USED
THE IDLE WELLS. ARE YOU HAVING
USED TO WELLS IN TWO YEARS AND
THEY'RE TECHNICALLY. I'LL I GET
THAT THAT MAKES PEOPLE NERVOUS
BUT WE GOT PLENTY OF WORK TO DO.
ON THE FIVE. FIVE THOUSAND. WE
ARE. WELL TO WE THE STATE
ACCOUNT. HAS AND IF THIS BILL
DOES NOT ELSE IS IT MOVE
FORWARD. IT LIVE STEP THOUSAND
DOLLAR CEILING SO THAT WE DON'T
HAVE TO DIVERT MONEY FROM THIS
FUND BECAUSE WE'VE MAXED OUT OF
FIVE MILLION DOLLARS THAT WE
CAN. WE CAN WORK WITH OUR
COLLEAGUES ON BUGS SAID TO AND
WITH THE BUDGET NEGOTIATION TO
MAKE SURE THAT THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA HAS ENOUGH MONEY IN
THERE WITH THE MONEY THAT THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS. SO THAT
BE DONE THERE'S A WHOLE LOT OF
WORK THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE IN
THIS FIELD. AND I WOULD URGE AN
AYE VOTE TO MOVE THE BILL ALONG
SO WE CAN CONTINUE TO ADDRESS
SOME OF THESE AND FIRE. CLEARLY
ENVIRONMENTAL. HAZARDS THE
PEOPLE EVERYBODY AGREES. WITH
THAT NEEDS TO BE REMEDIATED.
THANK YOU CENTER RIGHT SCHEME
FURTHER. OR DEBATE. SEEING AND
HEARING THEN SETTLE AMONG YOU
MAY CLOSE THANK YOU MEMBERS FOR
THAT VERY ROBUST DISCUSSION- I
WANT TO FOCUS ON THIS BILL
BECAUSE A LOT OF THINGS CAME UP
IN THIS DISCUSSION THAT ARE NOT
PART OF THIS BILL- LED TO IT YOU
KNOW THE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
DID WHEN I WAS NOT ELECTED IS
SOMETHING THAT IS NOT ADDRESS IN
THIS BILL- YOU KNOW IT IT
DEFINITELY- THAT YOU KNOW
NEGOTIATED FORMULAS IN TERMS OF
THE OIL WELL COST. I MEAN THIS
WAS ON THIS BILL IS ABOUT TRYING
TO FIND A WAY TO LEVERAGE
CALIFORNIA TAXPAYER DOLLARS WITH
SOME PRIVATE DOLLARS. TO ADDRESS
A PROBLEM OF THIRTY FIVE
THOUSAND WELLS THAT ARE NOT
BEING USED. TO EXTRACT OIL THAT
ARE SITTING THERE THIS IS WHAT
THIS BILL IS ABOUT ADDITIONALLY
THIS BILL ALSO ADDRESSES THE
FACT THAT WE DON'T HAVE. A
LEVER. YOU KNOW ENTITY TO
ADDRESS THIS IT FOR THE NEXT
TWENTY TO FIFTY YEARS. THE
REASON THAT THIS CONVERSATION
HAS COME UP ANNUALLY IN THE LAST
COUPLE OF YEARS IS BECAUSE-
THESE WELLS ARE CLOSE TO PEOPLE
AND WHEN THEY'RE CLOSE TO PEOPLE
THEY POSE A GREATER DANGER. BUT
WE ALSO NEED TO CREATE A LABOR
FORCE TO ADDRESS THIS MANY WELLS
IF WE ARE ONLY CLOSING AND
PROPERLY ABANDONING. FIVE TO
ELEVEN WELLS A YEAR RUN AND WHAT
CALIFORNIANS IN A ONE THOUSAND
YEAR PLAN TO FINISH. AND WHAT
WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS EXPEDITE
THIS WE WANT THIS TO BE OVER THE
NEXT TWENTY TO FIFTY YEARS AND
IT IS BEEN SAID THAT IT'S BEEN
PIECED TOGETHER AND YOU'RE
RIGHT. EVEN THE SMALL PIECES
HAVE BEEN FIGHTS TO BE ABLE TO
GET. ON IT AND THAT THAT IS WHAT
WE'RE TRYING TO DO WE'RE TRYING
TO ADD. TO THE POOL OF TOOLS
THAT CALIFORNIA HAS TO BE ABLE
TO ADDRESS THIS- SO I RESPECT
AND UNDERSTAND EVERYONE'S
DIFFERENT POSITIONS I WILL.
CONTINUE AS I HAVE WITH EVERY
OTHER THE BILL TO WORK WITH THE
OPPOSITE TO FEED OUT WHAT THAT
BALLOT IS I CAN TELL YOU THAT
THIS HOUSE IS NOT THE ONLY HOUSE
TALKING ABOUT THIS ISSUE- THIS
IS A BROADER CONVERSATION. AND I
DEFINITELY AM HOPEFUL. THAT WE
CAN FIGURE OUT A WAY TO DO MORE
THAN WHAT WE'RE DOING NOW
BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO
DO TO KEEP CALIFORNIANS SAFE.
AND ALSO TO ENSURE WERE MAXINE
MAXIMIZING. THE CALIFORNIA
TAXPAYER DOLLARS I WHICH IS
GOING TO BE PUT INTO THIS EFFORT
SO WITH THAT I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR AN AYE VOTE. THANK YOU

RELATING TO PRIVACY CENTER PANTS
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT
SENATORS I'M PROUD TO PRESENT SB
ELEVEN SEVENTY TWO WHICH
PROTECTS THE PRIVACY OF OUR
STUDENTS. BY LIMITING THE
PERSONAL BIOMETRIC INFORMATION
THAT REMOTE TRACKING COMPANIES
CAN COLLECT TO ONLY INFORMATION
IT'S ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY TO
OFFER THE TEST TAKING SERVICES.
SB ELEVEN SEVENTY TWO EMPOWERS
STUDENTS TO TAKE ACTION OF THEIR
PRIVACY IS BEING VIOLATED BY
REQUIRING DATA MINIMIZATION
ALLOWING HARM USERS. LONG HARM
USES A REMOTE PROPERTY SAW
SOFTWARE TO BE ABLE TO TAKE
ACTION ON THEIR OWN. NOW WITH CO
WE KNOW THAT AS WE'VE- MORE MORE
PEOPLE BEEN REQUIRED TO STUDENTS
AND OTHERS HAVE BEEN REQUIRED TO
TAKE TEST REMOTELY. AND MANY
TIMES. SCHOOLS OR UNIVERSITIES
SUPPORT. USE REMOTE PROMPTING
SERVICES. TO VERIFY AND FOR IT'S
- THE PERSON TAKING THE TEST AND
IN FACT WE KNOW THAT REMOTE
PROXY IN SCHOOL FOR A SCHOOL FOR
PROFESSIONAL LICENSING STATE
FARM INCREASED ALMOST FIVE
HUNDRED PERCENT. NOW- IF YOU'RE
THE PERSON TAKING THE TEST YOU
DON'T EXACTLY HAVE A CHOICE.
WHEN THE PRACTICE COMEY SAYS I
WANT ALL THE STATE ON YOU. IT'S
NOT L. YOU CAN EITHER TAKE THE
BAR EXAM. OR NOT TAKE THE BAR
EXAM IF YOU DON'T TAKE IT THEN
YOU'RE NOT HARD RIGHT- YOU CAN
THAT YOU DON'T TAKE THE FINAL
THEN YOU FAIL THE CLASS SO IT'S-
SO YOU'RE COMPELLED TO PROVIDE
WHATEVER INFORMATION TO
FRACKING. COMPANY ASKS FROM YOU
. HOWEVER FORTUNATELY TO ME
REMOTE TRACKING COMPANIES THAT
COLLECT. NONESSENTIAL BIOMETRIC
INFORMATION INCLUDING FACIAL
RECOGNITION TEMPLATES
FINGERPRINTS THIS IS YOUR DATA
MEDICAL INFORMATION BROWSING
HISTORY VIDEO AND AUDIO OF THE
USER AND THE SURROUNDINGS. AND
THE CHALLENGES THAT WE HAVE A
CALIFORNIA CONSUMER PRIVACY ACT-
AND DEAD THEY'LL SAY WELL IT
COVERS FRACKING COMPANIES BUT
UNFORTUNATELY THE LAW DOES NOT
ACTUALLY GIVE ME TO TOOLS TO
STUDENTS BECAUSE THE PROPERTY
COMPANIES EXPLOIT LOOPHOLES SAID
WELL OUR CONTRACTS WITH THE
SCHOOL OR THE YOU KNOW THE BAR
WHERE IT IS WRITTEN IN THIS EXAM
THAT THE STUDENT SO WE HAVE. TO
A STUDENT COMPLAINTS THEY'RE
LIKE WELL IT'S NOT OUR PROBLEM-
YOU BECAUSE LARGE CONTRACTS WITH
THE SCHOOL SO THEREFORE THAT
LOOPHOLE PREVENTS A STUDENT FROM
BEING ABLE TO PROTECT OUR OWN
PRIVACY. AND AS RESULT HE'S
TRACKING COMPANIES COLLECT
STUDENTS PRIVATE INFORMATION AND
HOLD THE DATA FOR FAR LONGER
THAN IS NECESSARY TO ADMINISTER
THE EXAM OR FOR OTHER PURPOSES
AND THAT PUTS THE STUDENTS
PRIVACY AT RISK UNFORTUNATELY
PROVIDE BIOMETRIC DATA. YOU
CANNOT CHANGE YOUR EYEBALL OR
FINGERPRINT OR SOMETHING IF
SOMEONE STEALS- THAT THAT DATE
IS SOLD. TO SOMEONE ELSE THE
DATABROKER. SO THIS BILLS GIVING
ARE STILL TO PROTECT OWN PERSON
FROM. TO REQUIRE PRACTICE
COMPANIES TO BE TRANSPARENT
ABOUT THE DATA COLLECTION. AND
LIMITED TO WHATEVER'S NECESSARY
TO ACTUALLY CONDUCT THE EXAM SO
THEY DO NOT TO THE LIKING EXCESS
DATA. AND THEN RESELLING THAT
DATA TO OTHERS. AND SO IT THAT
THIS IS THE ESSENTIAL TOOL FOR
PROTECTING OUR STUDENTS PRIVACY.

KNOWN AS THE STATE WATER
RESILIENCY AND MODERNIZATION
ACT. SB TWELVE NINETEEN
PRIORITIZES THE PRESERVATION AND
SUSTAINABILITY OF WATER USAGE
AND ENSURES THAT WATER IS
PROTECTED FOR FUTURE FOR FUTURE
GENERATIONS OF USE. THE CENTRAL
VALLEY IS REALLY FROM WATER
DELIVERY SHORTEST ROUTE AND
DAMAGE WATER INFRASTRUCTURE
ALONG WITH MANY OTHER PARTS OF
THE STATE AND WESTERN STATE WITH
LITTLE TO NO RAIN A BELOW
AVERAGE SNOWPACK IT IS CLEAR WE
ARE HEADED TO ANOTHER YEAR. OF A
DROUGHT A DROP THE WILL FURTHER
DISRUPT THE SUPPLY CHAIN. AND
LEAD TO INCREASES IN THE COST OF
FOOD ONE THAT WILL AFFECT OUR
FAMILIES FARMS AND WALLETS.
THERE IS NO QUICK FIX TO THIS
PROBLEM PROBLEM OUR CLIMATE IS
CONTINUING TO CHANGE. AND THE
RAMIFICATIONS OF THAT CHANGE ARE
BEING FELT ACROSS CALIFORNIA NOW
WITH WATER RESTRICTIONS AS WELL
. IN MY HUMBLE OPINION A LARGE
PART OF THE IMPACTS OF DRUG IS
DUE TO AN ANTIQUATED WATER
SYSTEM THAT HAS LED TO. A THE
MISMANAGEMENT OF OUR MOST
PRECIOUS PRECIOUS NATURAL
RESOURCE WHICH IS WATER. I WANT
TO MAKE A POINT OF NOTING THAT
THIS IS A- THE FIRST TIME I
PARTNERED UP IN VERY PROMPTLY.
TO DO SO WITH A MEMBER OF THE
LEGISLATION WATER DOES NOT FROM
THE CENTRAL VALLEY- AND- AND
THAT IS BECAUSE WATER SECURITY
IS NOT JUST A CENTRAL VALLEY
ISSUE ALTHOUGH I HAVE. BEEN VERY
OUTSPOKEN ABOUT THAT FOR THE
LAST THREE YEARS. AND IT'S NOT
JUST A CALIFORNIA ISSUE IT'S A
GLOBAL ISSUE. REPORT AFTER
REPORT ALSO THAT WATER SCARCITY
NEEDS TO BE EXAMINED IN THE
NEXUS FRAMEWORK ALONG WITH FOOD
HEALTH ENERGY AND SECURITY. A
TWENTY TWELVE COMMUNITY
INTELLIGENCE ASSESSMENT REPORT
ON THE STATE OF GLOBAL WATER
SECURITY INDICATED. THAT IN THE
NEXT TEN YEARS MANY COUNTRIES
IMPORTANT TO THE UNITED STATES
WE'RE EXPERIENCING WATER
PROBLEMS SHORTAGE SHORTAGES POOR
WATER QUALITY OR FLOODS THAT
WILL RISKY INSTABILITY AND
CRITICALLY TO STATE FAILURE AND
SOME NATIONS. INCREASED REGIONAL
TENSIONS AND DISTRACT THEM FROM
WORKING WITH THE UNITED STATES
OR WITH EACH OTHER IMPORTANT US
POLICY OBJECTIVES. THE REPORT
ALSO STATED THAT THE DEPLETION
OF GROUNDWATER SUPPLIES AND SOME
AGRICULTURAL AREAS OWING TO POOR
WATER MANAGEMENT WILL POSE A
RISK TO BOTH NATIONAL AND GLOBAL
FOOD MARKETS. LAST YEAR THE
SENATE MADE. AN UNPRECEDENTED
INVESTMENTS IN OUR WATER
INFRASTRUCTURE AND CONSTRUCTION
HAS ALREADY BEGUN TO REPAIR THE
STATE'S WATER CONVEYANCE SYSTEMS
ONE OF THE BEST INVESTMENTS WE
CAN MAKE TO CONSERVE THE LIMITED
WATER WE HAVE BEEN DELIVERED TO
COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE STATE NOT
JUST THE VALLEY. TO COMBAT THIS
UNCERTAINTY CENTER OR TO THE AND
I HARD WORKING TO PROVE THE
TRANSPARENCY THOUGHTFULNESS AND
EFFICIENCY OF HOW DECISIONS
SURROUNDING WATER MADE. TODAY
THERE TOO MANY GOVERNMENT
ENTITIES THAT EACH DEAL WITH THE
PEACE OF WATER MANAGEMENT WITH
SIMILAR BUT SOMETIMES
CONFLICTING GOALS. AND THOSE. AS
AS WELL AS AGRICULTURE ARE TOO
OFTEN NOT PART OF THE DECISION
MAKING PROCESS AS IT STANDS
TODAY. MANY PEOPLE WHOSE
LIVELIHOOD AND THE HEALTH
DEPENDS ON THIS WATER ARE NOT
INVITED OR WALKING AT THE TABLE
THIS IS SOMETHING WE MUST FIX.
AND MODERNIZE PEOPLE WHO ARE
IMPACTED BY THESE DECISIONS HAVE
A RIGHT TO BE INVOLVED IN THE
PROCESS. MODERNIZING IN TWENTY
TWENTY TWO MEANS INCREASING
TRANSPARENCY AND EXTENDING WAYS
FOR PEOPLE TO NAVIGATE PROCESSES
AND PROCEDURES. ESPECIALLY WHEN
IT COMES TO YOUR WATER
CURTAILMENTS. MODERNIZING MEANS
THAT WE HAVE BETTER CONTROL OF
WATER FEE INCREASES. MODERNIZE
THE MEANS THAT WE DO BETTER
PROVIDING CLEAN DRINKING WATER
FOR ALL AND THAT WE DON'T TO
LADIES PROJECTS OUR MOST
VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES.
MODERNIZING MEANS THAT WE HAVE
CYBER SECURITY ACROSS OUR WATER
SYSTEM THAT ACKNOWLEDGES THE NEW
ERA OF CYBER WARFARE WHERE WE
ARE IN TODAY AND HEALTH THIS
COULD BE USED AS A WEAPON
AGAINST US. MODERNIZING IN
TWENTY TWENTY TWO MEANS
INCREASING TRANSPARENCY AND
EXTENDING WAYS FOR PEOPLE TO.
NAVIGATE THIS COMPLICATED
PROCESS. ESPECIALLY WHEN IT
COMES ONCE AGAIN TO OUR WATER TO
CURTAILMENTS SB TWELVE NINETY
ONE PROVE OUR WATER MANAGEMENT
BY CREATING A COMMITTEE THAT
WILL PROVIDE GUIDANCE. FOR A
MORE INTEGRATED WATER MANAGEMENT
FRAMEWORK. COLLEAGUES FOR WATER
MANAGEMENT MAKES US ALL
VULNERABLE AND THREATENS. OUR
DEMOCRACY AND OUR VERY OWN
EXISTENCE WE MUST MATER NICE
WATER NOW BEING CAN I RESPECT
LAST FOR MY BOAT THANK YOU
CENTER HER TADO MEMBERS
DISCUSSION AND DEBATE SENATOR
NIELSEN. MADAM PRESIDENT AND
LADIES AND OF THE SENATE. I
CERTAINLY DO AND DOURSON WILL
SUPPORT THIS BILL BY MY
COLLEAGUE FROM SHANKER. BY THE
WAY MY COLLEAGUES THANK GOD I
HAIL FROM THE SAME HOMETOWN.
THERE ARE SOME CONCERNS I HAVE
YET WITH THE BILL. FIRST OF ALL
WE'RE OF POINTING AND EMPOWERING
AGENCIES OF STATE GOVERNMENT AND
THEY MORE OFTEN THAN NOT ARE THE
BIGGEST PROBLEM. AND HAVE BEEN
RELATED TO WATER SPECIFICALLY.
TO WHAT ONE. THE OROVILLE DAM
SPILLWAY FAILURE WAS THE FAILURE
OF STATE GOVERNMENT FOR DECADES
NOT ATTENDING TO. THE
MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION OF
THAT VERY CRITICAL RESOURCE. NOW
THIS ADVISED AND THEN APPOINT
THE AGENCIES OF GOVERNMENT CAN
APPOINT. KIND OF A CITIZENS
ADVISORY. I'VE BEEN DOWN THIS
TRAIL. I WANTED TO MAJOR BILLS
ONE TO MANAGE THE SACRAMENTO
RIVER. AND ONE TO OVERSEE THE
SALARIES AND CONVEYANCE OF THE
OROVILLE DAM. WHAT'S DIFFERENT
ABOUT THAT PRIOR LEGISLATION.
THE COMMUNITY. THE CITIZENS
DIRECTLY AREN'T APPOINTED PART
OF. THESE ENTITIES WORKING WITH
THE ENTITIES OF STATE GOVERNMENT
. HEREWE ARE GIVING THOSE
AGENCIES FAR TOO MUCH POWER
ALMOST DANGEROUS POWER BECAUSE
OF HOW THEIR FAILURES. IN THE
PAST. I WOULD ALSO REMIND THE
BODY I BELIEVE WAS TWO THOUSAND
AND TEN. A NEW WATER PLAN FOR
CALIFORNIA. WAS PUT INTO STATUTE
. IT CHANGE LONG HELD DYNAMICS
THAT EVERYTHING ABOUT WATER WAS
ABOUT THE DELTA. NOW FOR NUMBER
OF YEARS I WAS A DELTA CENTER I
KNOW THE DELTA I LOVE THE DELTA.
BUT EVERYTHING ABOUT WATER IS
NOT RELATED TO THE DAY AFTER.
THERE'S A NORTH. OR SOUTH
THERE'S A CENTRAL AS MY
COLLEAGUE FROM SANDERS
ARTICULATED. EAST AND WEST THE
WATER. IN CALIFORNIA FOR DECADES
IN WATER POLICY HAS NOT
RECOGNIZED THAT CRITICAL
DIFFERENT. THE AGENCIES ARE
STATE GOVERNMENT I WILL ARGUE
HAVE NOT EITHER. BEING
PREOCCUPIED OR OVERLY FOCUSED ON
THE DAY OF. THIS IS IMPORTANT
LEGISLATION. IT IS WORTHY OF
SUPPORT. BUT AS IT MOVES ALONG I
WOULD SUGGEST MY COLLEAGUE. PUT
THE CITIZENS THE PRIVATE SECTOR
. I REQUEST TO. WITH THE
AGENCIES OF GOVERNMENT NOT
SUPPOSE TO. OR AT THE MERCY OF
THOSE A- THAT SAID I I'VE- THANK
YOU CENTER NEAR SENATOR TO
RUSSELL. THANK YOU- MADAM I JUST
IF I HAVE A QUESTION FOR THE
AUTHOR. CENTER TOTALLY TAKE A
QUESTION. YES PLEASE PROCEED
THANK YOU I KNOW THE AUTHOR HAS
. EIGHT PASSION FOR THE ISSUE OF
WATER PARTICULARLY IN THE
CENTRAL VALLEY- THOSE OF US IN
METROPOLITAN AREAS ALSO HAVE A
BIG PASSION FOR. CLEAN AND SAFE
WATER AND AS I'VE BEEN TOLD
THERE ARE MILLION PEOPLE MILLION
CALIFORNIANS WHO DON'T HAVE
ACCESS TO CLEAN AND SAFE WATER
I'D LIKE TO IF THE AUTHOR COULD
JUST EXPLAIN A LITTLE BIT ABOUT.
HOW THIS NEW. GOVERNANCE SORT
SYSTEM OR STRUCTURE WOULD REALLY
ADDRESS THE INEQUALITIES- THAT
MILLIONS OF CALIFORNIANS ARE
FACING WHETHER IT BE IN
METROPOLITAN AREA LIKE SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA AND CENTRAL VALLEY
BUT IT NOT JUST WHAT WE DO WITH
WATER. THERE IS ENORMOUS
INEQUITIES- AND HOW WILL THIS
ADDRESS THE INEQUITIES THANK YOU
. SENATOR HER TADO PLEASE
PROCEED WHEN YOU'RE READY THANK
YOU FOR THE QUESTION I BROKE MY
MICROPHONE- SO NERVOUS ABOUT
LIKE YOUR QUESTION BUT- NO I
THINK THIS IS A THIS IS A GREAT
QUESTION THAT YOU ANSWER AND-
AND I'LL SAY THAT THIS BILL- IT
REALLY LOOKS TO MODERNIZE WATER.
AND NOT JUST FOR THE CENTRAL
VALLEY. I DON'T WANT THE WATER
JUST TO WORK FOR THE CENTRAL
VALLEY I WANTED TO WORK FOR ALL
CALIFORNIA. AND WE GOTTA HAVE A
BETTER SYSTEM IN PLACE SO THAT.
WERE ALL ABLE TO HAVE ACCESS TO
THAT WATER SO THAT COMMUNITIES
IN. YOUR COMMUNITIES IN YOUR-
DISK. AB SENATE DISTRICT DON'T
GO WITHOUT WATER IN THAT COULD
BE A REAL POSSIBILITY THIS YEAR
. AND IT END ALTHOUGH I DON'T
REPRESENT YOUR REGION IT
FRIGHTENS ME TO DEATH THAT
ANYONE IN THIS STATE WOULD GO
WITHOUT WATER WHEN WE KNOW WE
CAN. YOU KNOW REALLY MAXIMIZE
THE LIMIT YOU THE INCREASINGLY
LIMITED WATER THAT WE HAVE SO
THAT WE ALL HAVE ACCESS TO IT
BUT- BECAUSE IT THERE'S THE-
THERE'S I THINK ABOUT A LITTLE
OVER TWENTY DIFFERENT ENTITIES
THAT. THAT GOVERNOR AND TOUCH
WATER US SOMEHOW IT COMPLICATES
IT IT MAKES IT MORE DIFFICULT
FOR YOUR COMMUNITIES AND MY AND
MY COMMUNITIES TO. TO HAVE
ACCESS TO THE- THE FUNDS IN THE
TOOLS AND THE RESOURCES THAT
THEY NEED TO BE ABLE TO HAVE
ACCESS TO CLEAN WATER. AND SO
YOU'RE TO THE POINT THAT I MADE
EARLIER. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME
THAT I ACTUALLY PARTNERED ON ON
A BILL THAT WITH WITH A
COLLEAGUE THAT HAS COMPLETELY
DIFFERENT VIEWS IT WOULD
PROBABLY WHEN IT COMES ALL
THINGS OF WATER. A DAY AND THEN-
THAN THOSE THAT I YOUR THAN THE
PEOPLE THAT I REPRESENT AND MY
SENATE DISTRICT IN THE CENTRAL
VALLEY THAT'S BECAUSE WATER IS
NOT JUST ABOUT THE CENTRAL
VALLEY. IT'S ABOUT PEOPLE AND
IT'S ABOUT MAKING SURE THAT WE
HAVE ENOUGH WATER FOR THE
ENTIRE- AT FOR THE ENTIRE STATE
I MEAN WHO WOULD EVER THOUGHT
THAT. WE WOULD NEED TO UP CYBER
SECURITY TO PROTECT OUR DAMS AND
TO PROTECT- IT WATER TREATMENT
PLANT. I DON'T THINK THAT WHEN
ALL THESE DIFFERENT LAWS THAT
WERE BEING ESTABLISHED THAT WE
WOULD EVEN THINK THAT INTERNET
WOULD PLAY A ROLE IN THAT
HACKERS WOULD. POTENTIALLY BE
WILL PLAY A ROLE IN IN IN WATER
SECURITY AND THIS IS WHAT THIS
BILL IS REALLY LOOKING AT YOU
MEAN. TO DO- AND MODERNIZING
WATER- AND- AND YOU KNOW. I'LL
JUST KIND OF ALSO ADDRESSED WHAT
A- MIKE MY COLLEAGUE FROM
FORMALLY FINGER- MENTIONED
EARLIER THAT YEAR IS A LITTLE
BIT CONCERNED ABOUT. YOUR THAT
THE AGENCY'S PLANE HADN'T HAVING
CONTROL AND SAY OVER- THE
DECISION ABOUT WHAT THE- YOU
KNOW THE WATER OR THE FUTURE
WATER LOOKS LIKE AND HOW TO.
LOOK AT IT IN IN CALIFORNIA AND
IN THAT I HAVE THOSE CONCERNS TO
BUT I ALSO KNOW THAT THERE'S AN
APP A PROCESS IN THIS BILL THAT
WOULD ALLOW. YES STAKEHOLDERS
OUTSIDE OF THE AGENCIES TO BE
ABLE TO PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE
AND WE ALL. THE GOAL IS
EVERYBODY TO COME TOGETHER TO
MAKE IT AT TO PROVIDE EIGHTY
FUTURE THAT WE CAN ALL BENEFIT
FROM. THANK YOU SIR HER TADO.
DRAW SO. JUST SET A FINAL
COMMENT I SEE THE- MANY IN THE
OP. OR THAT WEWITH THAT ARE.
YOU KNOW OUR LA. THAT WE COUNT
ON AND DEPEND. FOR THE OF THE-
THAT WE IN OUR- SO I WOULD. URGE
THE AUTHOR CONTINUE TO WORK WITH
THEM ON THEIR PARTICULAR-
CONCERNS THAT THEY HAVE RAISED
ON EVERYONE'S BEHALF THANK YOU.
THANK YOU CENTER DORADO SENATOR
STERN. THANK YOU REPRESENT I WAS
NOT TO SPEAK BUT THEY- I WANTED. THE HARD WORK OF MY COLLEAGUES
HERE AND IT'S TRUE AT AS CHAIR
THE WATER COMMITTEE WE DID- TRY
TO HELP HER GET TO SOMEPLACE OF
A OF A CONSTRUCTIVE PIECE OF
LEGISLATION WHAT I WILL SAY IS.
AT THE PREMISE OF THE BILL- IN A
PART OF THE REASON IT A LOT OF
PEOPLE STILL HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT
IS. STARS A BILL. NOT UNLIKE A
DEBATE HAD EARLIER WHERE IT'S
VERY EASY TO BLAME THE AGENCY.
WHEN YOU'RE BLAMING CAL JAM FOR
THE- THE PROBLEM IS A BIG OIL OR
YOU'RE BLAMING THE WATER BOARD
FOR AN UNSUSTAINABLE APPROACH.
TO CORPORATIONS TAKING UP.
BLOWING PEOPLES WATER- THERE IS
A FUNDAMENTALLY. AND I THINK
THAT. YOU KNOW WE TRIED TO PUT
FORWARD- WORKING WITH THE
AUTHOR. THE COMMISSION PROCESS
THAT HOPEFULLY STARTS TO.
RESTORE SOME AT BALANCER
INITIATE THAT CONVERSATION BUT I
WILL SAY- YOU KNOW I FEEL LIKE
AS A COMMITTEE WE DID OUR PART-
ENDS. I WOULD I WOULD NOT- BE
URGING MEMBERS ONE WAY OR
ANOTHER ON THIS VOTE. BUT AS FAR
AS I'M MY OWN PERSONAL VIEWS ON
THIS I DO THINK THE GOVERNOR IS
LEGISLATURE WE HAVE EXISTING
TOOLS TO LOOK AT A LOT OF THIS
VISION RIGHT NOW- SO I WON'T BE
SUPPORTING THE MEASURE TODAY-
BUT I DO APPRECIATE THE AUTHOR'S
WILLINGNESS TO WORK ON BEHALF OF
OUR COMMUNITY- BUT- WITHOUT SOME
FURTHER. THAT EQUITY. I'M
ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE WITH YOU
ANY SUPPORTER VILLE OR LA. BUT
THOSE ARE GOING TO BE AT THE OF
THIS- I'M CONCERNED THAT YOU
KNOW WE'RE JUST GONNA STUDY
FURTHER AND FURTHER AND NOT
REALLY MAKE PROGRESS BUT- I KNOW
THE AUTHOR GOING TO DIG IN HERE
AND DO THAT WORK SO- JUST TO
GIVE SOME KIND. IN Y. I'LL BE A
TO. THANK YOU CENTER STERN
SENATOR CORTESE. THANK YOU MR
PRESIDENT TO. ARISE IN OF THE
PRO CO AUTHOR OF THIS BILL- IN
IOWA JUST SIX THINGS THAT IT CAN
. OF ONE OF THEM- AS TO ONE OF
OUR CALL FROM LOS ANGELES- THE
BILL SETS UP ACTUALLY NOT ONLY
ONE COMMITTEE BUT- A BLUE RIBBON
COMMISSION OF CITIZENS-
RESIDENTS OF THE CITY CALIFORNIA
TO HELP DIRECT INPUT- IN
ADDITION TO A MORE FORMAL GROUP
COMPOSED OF AGENCIES AND
COMPOSED OF MEMBERS OF THIS
LEGISLATURE THAT WILL BE
APPOINTED BY THE GOVERNOR. IT'S
NOT OF THAT CHANGES THE
GOVERNANCE THAT EXIST IN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA ROLL TO
WATER ANYTHING ELSE. ALBEIT
UNDER THE ORIGINAL VERSION OF
THE BILL DID ATTEMPT TO DO THAT
THAT WAS AMENDED OUT. IN THE
OPPOSITION WAS LISTEN TO NOT
ONLY VERY CAREFULLY BUT- ALL BE
CANDID IN OUR OWN CONVERSATIONS
AS CO AUTHORS I INDICATED THAT
IF- IF THE CONCERNS OF
ENVIRONMENTAL GROUPS WERE NOT
ADDRESS. A PERSON PARTICULARLY
THOSE THAT I WORK WITH FOR OVER
TWENTY YEARS- AROUND THE BAY
DELTA ESTUARY- THAT I'D BE OFF
THE BILL MYSELF- BUT EVERY
SINGLE ONE OF THOSE CONCERNS WAS
A DRESS WITH A GOOD HELP. OF THE
WATER COMMITTEE AND- OUR OTHER
COLLEAGUE FROM LOS ANGELES AND
IT'S VERY MUCH APPRECIATED. OF
THE BILL WAS REWORKED TOP TO
BOTTOM IN A WAY- THAT- I THINK
DIRECT STAKEHOLDERS AND DIRECTS
THE MULTIPLICITY. OF CONCERNS
AROUND WATER IN THE STATE- TO A
PLACE WHERE THEY CAN BE RESOLVED
WEEK TAKE ON A THAT INPUT WE
KNOW THAT WHO HAS A HISTORY OF
THAT. NOT ONLY IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA BUT- THE- WEEK TAKE
IT ON DIRECTLY AS A LEGISLATURE
NO BILL IN THIS LEGISLATURE WILL
EVER CAPTURE. IN RE. EVERY
CONCERN SOUTH IS. NOW A WERE MY
OWN CAL. BUT NOW IS DOWN TO
DESPITE DESPITE THE FACT IT HAS
ONE OF THE MOST SIGNIFICANT-
LOCAL. OWNED RESERVOIR SYSTEMS
BUT WITH NEARLY A HALF DOZEN
STORES THIS GROUND HETCH HETCHY
WATER- IN AND- UNTIL WATER IS
WELL- THAT WE'RE DOWN TO TWENTY
THREE PERCENT. OF WHAT WE NEED
TO SURVIVE IN TERMS OF WATER-
BUT I WANT TO BE SURE THAT IF
YOU LOOK AT THE REQUIREMENTS
THAT THE STRATEGIC VISION AND
ONLY DROP STATUTES- BY THESE TWO
GROUPS. WOULD WOULD INCLUDE- IT
IT INCLUDES- WATER SUPPLY
RELIABILITY IS NUMBER ONE AND
WATER QUALITY IS NUMBER TWO.
WATER DEPENDENT ECOSYSTEMS IS
NUMBER THREE IN A. OF THE ISSUES
OF A WILL BE ADDRESSED UNDER
THAT SECTION THREE OF- OF THE
BILL SO. I DO THINK THE CONCERNS
OF EMBRACE HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED-
I WAS ACTUALLY SURPRISED THE
LAST POLICY COMMITTEE TO SEE.
OPPOSITION NOT FORMALLY. IN ON
THE BILL BUT I UNDERSTAND THIS
SUBJECT MATTER IS ALWAYS GOING
TO MAKE FOLKS. NERVOUS AND
THAT'S WHY. AND THAT'S WHY IT
WAS REQUIRED ON THIS BILL-
REQUIRED OF THIS BILL IS NOT NEW
GOVERNANCE- OR A KIND OF FINAL
CODIFICATION OR STATUTORY. BUT
SO RE. THAT ANY DRAFTS. SUGGEST
COME BACK ONTO THE BODY- INTO
THE OTHER HOUSE FOR-CONSIDERATION IN IF IT ISN'T
TIME TO DO THAT I DON'T KNOW. A
WIN IT EVER WILL BE I

. ALL RIGHT FILE ITEM SIXTY FOUR
SENATOR GLAZERS WHAT WE'RE GOING
TO START WITH MADAM SECRETARY
PLEASE READ. SENATE BILL
FOURTEEN THIRTY NINE BY SENATOR
GLAZER AN ACT RELATING TO THE
POLITICAL REFORM ACT OF NINETEEN
SEVENTY FOUR SENATOR GLAZERS
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT
MEMBERS- SB FOURTEEN THIRTY
NINE. WOULD ENSURE THE PAY TO
PLAY PROHIBITIONS THAT APPLY TO
STATE AGENCY APPOINTEES ARE
APPOINTED LOCAL OFFICIALS. WHEN
APPROVING A LICENSE PERMIT OR
ENTITLEMENT FOR USE ALSO APPLY
TO LOCAL ELECTED OFFICIALS WHEN
ACTING IN IDENTICAL CAPACITY.
THE LEVINE ACT PROHIBITS AN
OFFICER OF AN AGENCY FROM
ACCEPTING SOLICITING OR
DIRECTING A CONTRIBUTION MORE
THAN TWO HUNDRED FIFTY DOLLARS
FROM ANY PARTY. PARTICIPANT OR
THEIR AGENTS IN CERTAIN
INSTANCES. WHEN THE OFFICER
KNOWS OR HAS REASON TO KNOW THAT
THE PARTICIPANT HAS FINANCIAL
INTERESTS. THIS PROHIBITION IS
IN EFFECT WHILE I PROCEEDING
INVOLVING A LICENSE OR PERMIT.
OR OTHER ENTITLEMENT FOR USE IS
PENDING. AND FOR THREE MONTHS
FOLLOWING THE DATE OF FINAL
DECISION IS RENDERED. THIS
PROHIBITION APPLIES TO STATE AND
LOCAL AGENCIES COMPRISED OF
APPOINTED OFFICIALS WHO MIGHT.
BE RUNNING FOR OFFICE. HOWEVER
UNDER CURRENT LAW LOCAL AGENCIES
WHOSE MEMBERS ARE DIRECTLY
ELECTED BY VOTERS. AND WHO MAY
BE RUNNING FOR RE ELECTION ARE
NOT INCLUDED IN THIS PROHIBITION
. CURRENT STATE LAW COUNTER
INTUITIVELY PERMITS LOCAL
ELECTED OFFICIALS RUNNING FOR
REELECTION. TO SOLICIT AND
ACCEPT SIZEABLE CONTRIBUTIONS
FROM THOSE WHO ARE SEEKING
PERMITS OR LICENSES. BUT THEN
PROHIBITS IDENTICAL
CONTRIBUTIONS TO AN APPOINTED
OFFICIAL RUNNING FOR OFFICE WHO
IS ACTING EXACTLY THE SAME
CAPACITY. SO WE'RE TRYING TO
CLEAR UP THIS CONFUSION IN THE
LAW- AND MAYBE MY STATEMENTS ARE
CONFUSING USE THAT YOU JUST
HEARD BUT- THE PROBLEM AS ITS
ESSENCE IS THAT. ACTUAL INTEREST
SEEKING INFLUENCE LOCAL DECISION
MAKING- AS WE KNOW IS A LONG
STANDING WELL DOCUMENTED IN REAL
PROBLEM. LET ME GIVE YOU AN
EXAMPLE- IN TWO THOUSAND
EIGHTEEN AND TWO THOUSAND TWENTY
MORE THAN 30% OF THE ROUGHLY
HUNDRED TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND
DOLLARS IN CAMPAIGN
CONTRIBUTIONS TO CURRENT
HUNTINGTON PARK CITY COUNCIL
MEMBERS CAME FROM EIGHT
COMPANIES AND THEIR EXECUTIVES.
WITH PENDING REQUESTS FOR
CONTRACTS WITH THE CITY. AND OF
COURSE THAT'S THE PURPOSE OF
THIS BILL TO PROHIBIT THAT
CIRCUMSTANCE FROM HAPPENING TO
LOCAL OFFICIALS. NOW IN ADDITION
TO THE PROHIBITION ON
CONTRIBUTIONS. THIS FOR BILL
REQUIRES AN ADDITIONAL
DISCLOSURE PRIOR TO PROCEEDING
BY THE PARTIES- IT ALSO EXPANDS
THE CONTRIBUTION PROHIBITION TO
INCLUDE SPOUSES- AND IT INCLUDES
A TIME FRAME EXPANDED TIME FRAME
FOR WHEN A- SPECIFIC
CONTRIBUTION WOULD NOT BE
ALLOWED. WE WANT OUR- LOCAL
OFFICIALS TO HAVE CONFIDENCE IN
THEIR COMMUNITY AND THE
DECISIONS THAT THEY MAKE CLOSING
THIS PAY TO PLAY LOOPHOLE WOULD
PROVIDE THAT APPROPRIATE
ACCOUNTABILITY. WITH THAT
RESPECTFULLY ASTRONAUT VOTE.
THANK YOU CENTER GLAZER MEMBERS
DISCUSSION AND DEBATE SENATOR
STERN. THANK YOU MEMBERS I RISE
IN SUPPORT OF THIS MEASURE. AND
IF I PROVIDE JUST A BRIEF MOMENT
OF SOME PERSONAL TESTIMONY ON
THIS IS SOMEBODY WHO'S- HOLDING
THIS OFFICE WHILE TRYING TO LOOK
AT A LOCAL OFFICE IN- IN THE
TRANSACTIONAL NATURE OF WHAT'S
HAPPENING IN OUR CITIES AND
COUNTIES RIGHT NOW WHERE PEOPLE
HAVE PROJECTS. BEFORE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS ARE BEFORE CITY
COUNCILS- THE PAY TO PLAY A GAME
IS VERY REAL AND ANYONE WHO
DECIDES NOT TO BE A PART OF THAT
GAME. OR SAYS THEY WON'T CLOSE
KINDS OF CONTRIBUTIONS IS PUT IS
AT A SIGNIFICANT DISADVANTAGE-
THE RIGHT THING TO DO
NONETHELESS BUT THE LAW TO
RECOGNIZE THAT RIGHT. AND FOR
THAT REASON I RISE IN SUPPORT.
THANK YOU CENTER STERN SENATOR
GONZALEZ. THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT I TO RISE AND- STRONG
SUPPORT OF THIS BILL- I THINK
THE GOOD SENATOR FROM. A CONTRA
COSTA FOR BRINGING THIS FORWARD.
AND I BELIEVE IN THIS- TIME OF-
NEEDING EVEN MORE PUBLIC
TRANSPARENCY AND TRUST AND
ENSURING THAT OUR ELECTED
OFFICIALS ARE WORKING WITH-
WITHIN THAT INTEGRITY AND TRUST
THAT WE CONTINUE TO PUSH THESE
TYPES OF. OF BILLS FOR IT SO
WITH THAT I URGE MY VOTE AS
WELL. THANK YOU CENTER GONZALEZ
MEMBERS FURTHER DISCUSSION OR
DEBATE SEEING AND HEARING ANSWER
BECAUSE I WOULD LIKE TO CLOSE
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT THANK
THE SENATOR. FROM LONG BEACH AND
LOS ANGELES FOR THEIR KIND
WORDS. YOU KNOW THAT THE HEART
OF WHAT WE DO IS GETS TRUST AND
CONFIDENCE THAT THE WORK THAT WE
DO IS. BEING DONE FOR ALL THE
RIGHT REASONS. AND UNFORTUNATELY
WE HAVE A PRACTICE PATTERN OF
WHERE THAT HASN'T BEEN DONE
RIGHT. THIS BILL IS GOING TO
PROVIDE CLARITY ON EXACTLY WHAT
THOSE RULES ARE SO THAT OUR
LOCAL OFFICIALS CAN DO THE RIGHT
THING. I THINK MANY EMAIL ME ON
THE FLOOR. HAS BEEN. TO ME AS
BEING A VERY STRONG OF LOCAL
CONTROL AND THIS IS A SPACE- IN
THOSE RARE INSTANCES WHERE THE
STATE SHOULD STEP IN WITH CLEAR

PRESIDENT THANK YOU FOR THE
OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT S. B.
TWELVE THIRTY ONE WHICH WILL
EDUCATE AND PROTECT CALIFORNIANS
AGAINST VALLEY FEVER AN
INCURABLE DISEASE THAT IS
PREVALENT IN MANY AREAS OF OUR
COUNTRY. VALLEY FEVER IS A
RESPIRATORY DISEASE CAUSED BY A
SOIL DWELLING FUNGUS COMMONLY
FOUND IN CALIFORNIA'S CENTRAL
VALLEY AND THE AMERICAN
SOUTHWEST IT APPEARS AS IF THIS
FUNGUS HAS SPREAD DUE TO CLIMATE
CHANGE. SB TWENTY ONE THIRTY
TWELVE THIRTY ONE WILL ADDRESS
AN INFORMATION RESOURCE GAP BY
PROVIDING A DIAGNOSTIC GUIDE FOR
VALLEY FEVER FOR PHYSICIANS AND
HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS IN
CALIFORNIA. SPECIFICALLY
SPECIFICALLY THE BILL WILL AID
PHYSICIANS AND HEALTH CARE
WORKERS IN IDENTIFYING VALLEY
FEVER EARLY BY COMPILING THE
LATEST PUBLIC HEALTH IMMUNITY
IMMUNOLOGY AND CLINICAL RESEARCH
WITH BEST PRACTICES INTO A GUIDE
THAT IS DIGESTIBLE TO THE PUBLIC
AND USEFUL WITHIN THE MEDICAL
FIELD. ADDITIONALLY THE
DIAGNOSTIC GUIDE WILL BE MULTI
LINGUAL TERRIFIC REFLECT
CALIFORNIA'S DIVERSE COMMUNITIES
WE MUST FARM HEALTH CARE
PRACTITIONERS WITH CULTURALLY
RELEVANT RESOURCES TO DISRUPT IN
IN IN EQUITIES WITHIN THE
MEDICAL CARE SYSTEM. THE VALLEY
FEVER IS HAS A LOW MORTALITY IT
HAS A HIGH PROBABILITY RATE IT'S
EARLY SYMPTOMS ARE SIMILAR TO
THE FLU FURTHER COMPLICATING
DIAGNOSIS HOWEVER THE CONDITION
MUST BE CAUGHT AT ITS EARLIEST
STAGES BECAUSE VALLEY FEVER CAN
PROGRESS INTO A CHRONIC ILLNESS
THAT SEVERELY LIMITS THE
PATIENT'S QUALITY OF LIFE AND
FOR UNFORTUNATELY THERE'S NO
CURE. FOR CHRONIC VALLEY FEVER
AND THERE IS LITTLE INFORMATION
AS TO WHY A PERSON DEVELOPS THE
SEVERE DISEASE THEREFORE THE
BEST TREATMENT IS PREVENTION

RELATING TO CANNABIS CENTER
CABALLERO THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT MEMBERS I AM PLEASED
TO PRESENT SB THIRTEEN TWENTY
SIX WHICH WOULD ALLOW THE CROSS
JURISDICTIONAL IMPORT AND EXPORT
TO OTHER STATES OF CANNABIS AND
CANNABIS PRODUCTS BY AUTHORIZING
THE GOVERNOR TO ENTER INTO AN
AGREEMENT TO PROVIDE LAWFUL
INTERSTATE COMMERCE SB THIRTEEN
TWENTY SIX ALLOWS THE STATE TO
ENTER INTO AN INTERSTATE
CANNABIS AGREEMENT. TO ALLOW
CANNABIS OR CANNABIS PRODUCTS TO
BE TRANSPORTED ACROSS STATE
LINES REQUIRES THE AGREEMENT TO
MEET SPECIFIED REQUIREMENTS
INCLUDING THAT PARTICIPATING
STATES MUST MEET OR EXCEED
HEALTH AND SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
THAT WE HAVE ESTABLISHED AND
ALLOW THE STATE TO ENGAGE IN
COMMERCIAL ACTIVITIES WITH OUT
OF STATE LICENSES WITHOUT
CONSIDERABLE MARKET EXPANSION AS
PART OF THE SOLUTION TO
STABILIZE THE LEGAL INDUSTRY AND
INCENTIVIZE PARTICIPATION IN THE
REGULATED MARKET CALIFORNIA
RISKS THE COLLAPSE OF PORTIONS
OF THE LEGAL INDUSTRY RESULTING
IN CONSIDERABLE EXPANSION OF THE
ILLICIT MARKET IN CALIFORNIA
WHICH IS WHAT WE'VE SEEN IT'S A
LOT CHEAPER A LOT EASIER TO GET
SOMETIMES. SB THIRTEEN TWENTY
SIX IS IN THIS ESSENTIAL STEP TO
ENSURE THE CALIFORNIA CAN FULLY
CAPITALIZE ON AND REMAIN A
LEADER IN THE FORTHCOMING
NATIONAL CANNABIS MARKET
CALIFORNIA SHOULD LAY THE
GROUNDWORK FOR A MULTI STATE
LEGAL CANNABIS MARKET NOT ONLY
CAN THE STRATEGY BE REPLICATED.
THANK YOU CAN BE CAN IT BE
REPLICATED ON A NATIONAL SCALE
IT CAN GIVE CALIFORNIA A
COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE. IN THE
SENATE BMP COMMITTEE I COMMITTED
TO WORK WITH THE CHAIR TO
DEVELOP AN APPROPRIATE MECHANISM
FOR LEGISLATIVE INVOLVEMENT AND
OVERSIGHT FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF
INTERSTATE AGREEMENTS UNDER THIS
BILL. DUE TO TIME CONSTRAINTS WE
WERE NOT ABLE TO AMEND THE BILL
IN THE SENATE BUT I WILL BE
TAKING AMENDMENTS IN THE
ASSEMBLY WHICH WILL INCLUDE A
REQUIREMENT FOR PROPOSED
AGREEMENTS OR AGREEMENT
AMENDMENTS TO BE SUBMITTED TO
THE JOINT BUDGET COMMITTEE FOR
REVIEW AND COMMENT. THE
COMMITTEE WOULD HAVE SIXTY DAYS
TO REVIEW AND SUBMIT WRITTEN
RECOMMENDATIONS AND THE GOVERNOR
MUST PROVIDE IN WRITING REASONS
FOR ANY LEGISLATIVE
RECOMMENDATION BUT INCORPORATED
INTO THE AGREEMENT SECOND WOULD
REQUIRE PROPOSED AGREEMENTS OR
AMENDMENTS TO BE POSTED ON THE
DEPARTMENT'S INTERNET WEBSITE
FOR THIRTY DAYS FOR PUBLIC
COMMENT. AND THIRD REQUIRE
ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN PURSUANT
TO THIS LEGISLATION BE INCLUDED
IN THE DEPARTMENT'S ANNUAL
REPORT TO THE LEGISLATURE THIS
WILL ENSURE THAT WE'RE GETTING

DISCUSSION OR DEBATE SENATOR
PAN. THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT
SENATORS- I APPRECIATE. THE
AUTHOR ACTUALLY- I'M TALKING
ABOUT THE ROLE OF THE
LEGISLATURE IN THESE CONTACTS- I
KNOW WE HAD THAT DISCUSSION AND-
AND BMP COMMITTEE AND-
APPRECIATE HER EXPLANATION ABOUT
WHY THEY'RE NOT IN THE CURRENT
VERSION OF THE BILL BUT THEY'LL
BE TAKEN OUT. AFTER MIDNIGHT
WILL TO SERVE SAY THAT MY
PREFERENCE WOULD BE IS THAT
ACTUALLY. IN THE END THAT ANY
INTERSTATE COMPACTS THE FULL
CONTACT SHOULD BE I THINK
RATIFIED BY THE LEGISLATURE I
THINK PERHAPS A STEP FURTHER
THAN YOU YOU MENTIONED MAYBE
THAT CAN BE FURTHER- POINT OF.
DISCUSSION AS IT GOES THROUGH
THE ASSEMBLY BUT CERTAINLY-
APPRECIATE WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO
DO AND- CERTAINLY. WE DO NEED TO
SEE WHETHER WE CAN WORK WITH
OTHER STATES- TOGETHER AS WELL-
IN THE IN THE SERENUS OF THE
SUPPORTING THE BILL BUT- YEAH
AND VERY MUCH LOOKING FORWARD TO
BEFORE THE BILL COMES BACK AND
CURTAINS- BETTER DEFINING AND
BEING SURE THAT THE LEGISLATURE.
HAS A ERY IMPORTANT SAY IN ANY
FINAL COMPACT THAT'S AGREED TO
WITH OTHER STATES IN REGARDS
CAMPUS THANK YOU. THINK YOUR
BENCH THANK YOU CENTER DOWN
MEMBERS FOR THE DISCUSSION BASED
SENATOR MELINDA'S. THANK YOU
MADAM PRESIDENT. I HAVE A
QUESTION OF THE AUTHOR. THE
QUOTE AND YES THEY WILL PLEASE.
THANK YOU- SENATOR REID. HAVE A
QUESTION RESPECT TO PROP SIXTY
FOUR. BECAUSE PROP SIXTY FOUR
STATED- THAT IT SHALL NOT BE
CONSTRUED TO AUTHORIZE OR PERMIT
A LICENSEE TRANSPORTER
DISTRIBUTE OR CAUSE TO BE
TRANSPORTED OR DISTRIBUTED.
MARIJUANA OR MARIJUANA PRODUCTS
OUTSIDE THE STATE UNLESS
AUTHORIZED BY FEDERAL LAW. SO
HOW DO YOU SQUARE THIS BILL WITH
THE FACT THAT. WHAT SIXTY FOUR
SAID ONE THING IN YOUR BILL IS
ASKING TO DO SOMETHING ENTIRELY
DIFFERENT. THANK YOU VERY THANK
YOU FOR THAT QUESTION- THIS IS
ANTICIPATION OF. OF BASICALLY
FEDERAL ELECTION AGING OR
PERMITTING THE TRACK
TRANSPORTATION- OF- DRUGS ACROSS
STATE LINES IT OBVIOUSLY WE NEED
TO BE VERY CAREFUL. NOT TO BE
VIOLATING FEDERAL LAW IN THE IN
THE- IN THE CONSTRUCT OF- OF
INTERSTATE COMMERCE BUT I THINK
IT'S PRETTY WELL RECOGNISED AT
THE STATE'S- IT SHOULD. NOT DO
ANYTHING THAT THAT- CONSTRAINTS
BETTER- CONSTRAINTS COMMERCE-
AND SO WE ARE CAREFUL WHEN WE
LOOK AT OUR BILLS HERE IN THE
LEGISLATURE TO MAKE SURE THAT
THAT OUR- ACTIONS ARE NOT
CONSTRAINING COMMERCE THIS IS
ONE WAY FOR US TO BE ABLE TO
PUSH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. TO
ALLOW US TO DO INTERSTATE
TRANSPORTATION AND SO THAT THAT
ACTUALLY THE PROPOSITION DOESN'T
SAY CAN'T DO IT WHAT IS IT YOU
NEED- YOU NEED A FEDERAL. NOT
LEGISLATION IN ORDER TO BE ABLE
TO ALLOW IT TO HAPPEN AND THAT'S
THAT'S THE DIRECTION WE BE GOING
IN. OKAY THURMOND US YES THANK
YOU MADAM PRESIDENT- SO AGAIN
PROP SIXTY FOUR VERY CLEARLY
STATE TO HAVE THE WORDING RIGHT
IN FRONT OF ME THERE SHALL NOT
BE CONSTRUED TO AUTHORIZE OR
PERMIT. THIS- DISTRIBUTION OF
MARIJUANA MARIE MARIJUANA
PRODUCTS OUTSIDE THE STATE SO
WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS. THIS IS
IN ANTICIPATION OF CONGRESS
PASSING A LAW THAT LEGALIZES
MARIJUANA I'VE YET TO SEE A BILL
LIKE THAT BE INTRODUCED IF IT
HASN'T BEEN INTRODUCED IT
CERTAINLY HASN'T BEEN PASSED. SO
IF THIS BILL PASSES IT MAKES IT
. LEGAL IF YOU WELL AS FAR AS
CALIFORNIA STATE LAW AND THAT IS
IN DIRECT OPPOSITION TO FEDERAL
LAWSUIT THAT PUTS US OUT OF STEP
WITH FEDERAL LAW SO ARE YOU
SUGGESTING THAT. CALIFORNIA IS
NOT GOING TO ENGAGE IN THIS KIND
OF COMMERCE. EVEN THOUGH THIS
BILL MAY PASS MAY BE SIGNED BY
THE GOVERNOR UNLESS. CONGRESS
LEGALIZES MARIJUANA BECAUSE
THAT'S NOT IN THE BILL IT
DOESN'T SAY YOU KNOW DEPENDED
UPON CONGRESS LEGALIZING THIS
PRODUCT. CENTER CABALLERO YES IT
IS THAT IS MY EXPECTATION. AND
IN THE IT'S CERTAINLY SOMETHING
WE CAN WE CAN ADD TO THE BILL OF
THE AT THE ANTICIPATION IS THAT
THIS WILL GIVE THE GOVERNOR THE
AUTHORITY IN OTHER WORDS A
GOVERNOR CAN DECLINE THAT A
THIRTY YOU CAN EITHER NOT HE CAN
EITHER BE TO THE BILL OR HE CAN
SIGN IT AND THEN NEVER. NEVER
COME UP WITH A COMPACT WITH
OTHER STATES BUT TO THE EXTENT
THAT- THE LEGISLATURE IS IN
SUPPORT OF THAT IT GIVES THE
GOVERNOR THE ABILITY TO. START
DISCUSSING. INTERSTATE COMPACTS
WITH THOSE STATES THAT HAVE
LEGALIZED MARIJUANA. AND AND USE
THAT IS AT THE READY TO GO TO
THIS TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
AND ASK CONGRESS TO CHANGE THE
LAW SO THAT IT AT THAT CONTACT
WOULD BE AFFECTED. OKAY
MILLENDER. THANK YOU MATTER
PRESENT ON MY OWN TIME I WOULD
JUST BRIEFLY- BRING THIS TO A
CLOSE AND JUST SAY THAT THIS.
THIS BILL THAT'S BEING PROPOSED
IF PASSED AND SIGNED BY THE
GOVERNOR IS. REN'S COMPLETELY
AFOUL OF FEDERAL LAW WHETHER OR
NOT WE ANTICIPATE THAT CONGRESS.
MAY LEGALIZE MARIJUANA THEY HAVE
NOT YET AND SO THIS PUTS US ON
THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE TABLE
AND FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND I
WILL REMIND EVERYONE THAT WE
HAVE BEEN DOWN THIS ROAD BEFORE
AND OF COURSE YOU KNOW. THAT IF
YOU RUN AFOUL OF FEDERAL LAW YOU
RUN THE RISK OF HAVING FEDERAL
FUNDING WITHHELD FROM THE STATES
THAT ARE NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH
FEDERAL LAW SO WITH THAT I WOULD
ASK FOR NO BETTER. THANK YOU
CENTER WINDOWS MEMBERS FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE THING IN
HEARING CENTER CABALLERO YOU
MAKE. THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT
NAY A- SHEET THAT. HOWEVER THE
REAL THE REAL ISSUE HERE HAS TO
DO WITH- SETTING UP A FRAMEWORK
TO BE ABLE TO TALK TO OUR-
STATE. PARTNERS WHO HAVE
LEGALIZED MARIJUANA. IN
VIOLATION OF FEDERAL LAW AND
MIGHT I MIGHT ADD. AND AND PUSH
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO DO THE
RIGHT THING. I WANNA IS NOT ONLY
A RECREATIONAL DRUG BUT IT ALSO
IS A DRUG THAT PROVIDES GREAT
RELIEF FOR PEOPLE THAT ARE
SUFFERING A WHOLE SERIES. OF
ILLNESSES AND- THE FACT THAT
CALIFORNIA RECOGNIZES VERY EARLY
ON AND HAS PROVIDED A FORUM TO
BE ABLE TO HELP IS REALLY
IMPORTANT AND SO I WOULD I THINK
THIS IS JUST PART OF THAT
TRAJECTORY OF TRYING TO GET THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. BOARD AND
THEN STAND THAT LEGALIZING
MARIJUANA IS A RIGHT THING TO DO
AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR
VOTE. THANK YOU CENTER CABALLERO

CURIOUS AS TO THE NEED FOR THE
SHORTEN PURITY DISCLOSURE.
REDUCING THE DAYS BECAUSE IT
SEEMS VERY CUMBERSOME IN A WAY
SO THE DISCLOSURE IS FINE DURING
THE AMOUNT IS FINE BUT WHY THE
NEED TO LOWER THE NUMBER OF
DAYS. FOR THE REQUIREMENT TO
DISCLOSURE PURPOSES THE REASON
CENTER APPRECIATE THE QUESTION A
GREAT DEAL WE KNOW WE HAVE ALL

SENATE BILL THIRTEEN SEVENTY
FIVE BY SENATOR ATKINS AN ACT
RELATING TO HEALING ARTS CENTER
ATKINS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FIVE
MEN AND PRESENT CALYX I RISE
TODAY TO PRESENT MY BILL SB
THIRTEEN SEVENTY FIVE. IN STATE
HOUSES IN COURTHOUSES ACROSS OUR
COUNTRY ALL THE WAY UP TO THE
SUPREME COURT OUR REPRODUCTIVE
RIGHTS ARE NOT ONLY BEING
THREATENED BUT FOR SO MANY
THEY'VE ALREADY BEEN STOLEN.
ONCE AGAIN WOMEN ARE BEING
PUSHED TO EXTREME MEASURES TO
ACCESS ABORTION CARE AND OTHER
STATES. ONCE AGAIN THEY FACE
HAVING TO PUT THEIR BODIES IN
DANGER. THE SUPREME COURT'S
IMPENDING DECISION ON A CASE
THAT WILL DESTROY ROE VERSUS
WADE AND THE RAIL REPRODUCTIVE
FREEDOM IN AMERICA IS BIGGER
THAN THIS ONE BILL AND IT STANDS
TO HAVE A VERY REAL IMPACT ON
THE LIVES OF MANY OF MOST
VULNERABLE INDIVIDUALS AND
COMMUNITIES. THAT DECISION WILL
CARRY THE WEIGHT OF MILLIONS OF
WOMEN WHO WILL NOT HAVE A TANAMI
OVER THEIR OWN BODIES. IT'S A
DECISION THAT WILL IMPACT WOMEN
FAMILIES AND OUR COUNTRY FOR
DECADES TO COME. AND ONCE AGAIN
WE IN CALIFORNIA FIND OURSELVES
SAYING NOT ON OUR WATCH THIS IS
A DECISION WE NEED TO PREPARE
FOR IN EVERY WAY THAT WE CAN. SB
THIRTEEN SEVENTY FIVE AS PART OF
THAT PREPARATION. BY GIVING MORE
TRAINED AND QUALIFIED NURSE
PRACTITIONERS THE ABILITY TO
PROVIDE A PERSON'S THIS. DOCTOR
SB THIRTEEN SEVENTY FIVE IS
PROACTIVE. FURTHER IN ACCESS TO.
QUALITY REPRODUCTIVE CARE IN
CALIFORNIA. CALIFORNIA HAS LONG
BEEN A LEADER IN REPRODUCTIVE
RIGHTS BUT THE PRACTICAL NEED TO
ENSURE REAL ACCESS IS FAR FROM
COMPLETE. ONE EARLY STEP THAT I
TOOK WAS OFFERING AB ONE FIFTY
FOUR IN TWENTY THIRTEEN TO
EXPAND THE TYPES OF HEALTH CARE
PROVIDERS WHO CAN PERFORM FIRST
TERM ABORTIONS WITH THE
SUPERVISION OF A DOCTOR TO
INCLUDE NURSE PRACTITIONERS.
THEN SEVEN YEARS LATER THE
LEGISLATURE PASSED AB EIGHT
NINETY. AUTHORED BY ASSEMBLY
MEMBER WOULD AND CREATED
OPPORTUNITIES FOR QUALIFYING
NURSE PRACTITIONERS TO CARE FOR
PATIENTS WITHOUT THE SUPERVISION
OF A DOCTOR. NOW WE NEED TO MAKE
SURE THOSE LAWS CAN WORK
TOGETHER IN UNISON. SB THIRTEEN
SEVENTY FIVE WOULD MAKE IT CLEAR
THAT NURSE PRACTITIONERS TO
PRACTICE INDEPENDENTLY CAN ALSO
PROVIDE FIRST TERM ABORTIONS
WITHOUT A PHYSICIAN'S
SUPERVISION. THE BILL ALSO
CLARIFIES THAT AMONG OTHER
CRITERIA NURSE PRACTITIONERS
NEED THREE YEARS OF EXPERIENCE
UNDER A PHYSICIAN IN ORDER TO BE
ABLE TO PRACTICE INDEPENDENTLY.
ADDITIONALLY AMENDMENTS MADE TO
THE BILL AS IT CAME OUT OF THE
SENATE APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE.
WOULD REMOVE BARRIERS AND
CURRENT LAW THAT MAKE IT. FOR A
PRACTICE CLINIC. TRAINING FOR
ABORTION CARE. ADVANCED PRACTICE
CLINICIANS PLAY A CRITICAL ROLE
IN PROVIDING REPRODUCTIVE CARE.
BY REMOVING BARRIERS TO ABORTION
TRAINING ALLOWING EXPERIENCED
NURSE PRACTITIONERS TO UTILIZE
THEIR FULL TRAINING AND
EDUCATION. SB THIRTEEN SEVENTY
FIVE LOOKS BEYOND THE NUMBER OF
QUALIFIED REPRODUCTIVE CARE
PRACTITIONER. CHECK IS ASKING AT
THE K. SB SEVENTY FIVE BILLS
OFFER THIS OF EIGHT ONE FIFTY
FOUR END AB EIGHT NINETY TO
FURTHER STRENGTHEN. AND EXPAND
ACCESS TO REPRODUCTIVE CARE
WHILE ALSO LIFTING UP A
WORKFORCE OF SKILLED NURSE
PRACTITIONERS AND GIVING THEM
MORE OPPORTUNITIES TO CARE FOR
THEIR OWN PATIENTS. WHAT TIME
SEEMS TO BE MOVING BACKWARD IN
MANY PLACES ACROSS OUR NATION
THIS BILL WOULDHELP CALIFORNIA
CONTINUE MOVING FORWARD. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR AYE
VOTE. THANK YOU CENTER TKINS
MEMBERS DISCUSSION AND DEBATE
SENATOR MEN. THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT I WANT TO THANK MY
COLLEAGUE FROM SAN DIEGO FOR
INTRODUCING THIS BILL AND I'M
PROUD TO BE A CO AUTHOR OF IT-
ONE FORTUNE WE LIVE IN A TIME
WHEN WE HAVE A VERY RADICAL-
BENCH INCLUDING FIVE MEMBERS OF
THE SUPREME COURT HOOST TALK
ABOUT CALLING BALLS AND STRIKES.
ARE THEY TALK ABOUT BEING
NEUTRAL ARBITERS OF JUSTICE ALL
THREE OF THEM STOOD BEFORE THE
SENATE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE AND
SAID UNDER OATH THAT THEY
RESPECTED ROE V. WADE IS A
PRECEDENT AS WELL AS A NUMBER OF
OTHER KEY DECISIONS THAT
ESTABLISHED A RIGHT TO PRIVACY.
AS PART SUCH. S. THESE. HAVE
PROVEN THEMSELVES TO BE LIARS TO
BE RADICAL EXTREMISTS. ARE AN
UNFORTUNATE TODAY WE ARE DEALING
WITH AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE THEY
HAVE TAKEN AWAY. ARE EXPECTED TO
TAKE AWAY A WOMAN'S RIGHT TO
ACCESS ABORTIONS. I THEY WILL
PROBABLY GO AFTER OTHER RIGHTS
NEXT. AND SO I THINK IT'S
CRITICAL THAT WE IN THIS STATE
STAND UP FOR JUSTICE FOR LONG
ESTABLISHED PRINCIPLES OF
PRIVACY. ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE-
OTHER FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS THAT WE
HAVE TAKEN FOR GRANTED FOR FAR
TOO LONG. AND CALIFORNIA IS
GONNA HAVE TO LEAD FOR I DO
THAT. WE WILL HAVE TO BE A
SANCTUARY STATE FOR ABORTION
ACCESS HI THIS BILL IS HELPING
TO PREPARE FOR THE DEMAND THAT
WE'VE ALREADY SEEN INCREASE
WE'VE SEEN A NUMBER OF WOMEN
ALREADY TRAVEL TO CALIFORNIA. IN
THE WAKE OF DRACONIAN LAWS
PASSED IN THEIR HOME STATES- AND
WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO CONTINUE
TO FACE THIS SURGING DEMAND. WE
HAVE TO LEAD SO I AM PROUD TO BE
A CO AUTHOR THIS BILL AGAIN WANT
TO THANK MY COLLEAGUE FROM SAN
DIEGO FOR BRINGING THIS. OP
UNFORTUNATE THINK THIS IS THE
BEGINNING A LONG FIGHT THEY WILL
BE FACING. THANK YOU SENATOR
MEANT SENATOR WIENER. I THANK
YOU MADAM PRESIDENT I ALSO RISE
IN SUPPORT OF SB THIRTEEN
SEVENTY FIVE WANT TO THANK THE
PROTON I WOULD LOVE TO BE ADDED
AS A CO AUTHOR- IN THE ASSEMBLY
ON YOU KNOW I WAS LISTENING TO A
pPODCAST THE OTHER DAY ABOUT THE
SITUATION IN TEXAS THE HEALTH
CARE DISASTER WHAT'S HAPPENING
IN TEXAS AS A- MOVE TOWARDS
EFFECTIVELY ARE BANNING-
ABORTION. AND WHAT I HEARD
LISTEN TO A PHYSICIAN- AND-
OBSTETRICIAN WHO- WHO- PERFORMS
ABORTIONS AND OTHER REPRODUCTIVE
HEALTH SERVICES BOB TALKING
ABOUT HOW THEY'VE BEEN
REFERRING- PEOPLE SEEKING
ABORTION SERVICES TO THE GO TO
NEW MEXICO BECAUSE ON LIGHT
TEXAS NEW MEXICO HAS NOT
CRIMINALIZED ON ABORTION-
HOWEVER THE CLINICS IN NEW
MEXICO ARE INTENSELY BACKLOG
BECAUSE THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH.
HEALTH PROVIDERS THERE TO TAKE
TO CARE FOR NACHOS PEOPLE IN
MEXICO BUT ALSO TEXANS WERE
COMING ACROSS THE BORDER BECAUSE
OF THE DESPICABLE ACTION OF
THEIR STATE GOVERNMENT- HAS
TAKEN- AND SO THIS DOCTOR WAS
QUESTIONING SHOULD I MOVED TO
NEW MEXICO. TO HELP- AND ITS
RECENT BECAUSE NO ONE SHOULD BE
IN A POSITION TO WONDER DO I
SAID I APPROVED AT OUT OF A
SENSE OF OBLIGATION TO MY
PATIENTS. TO ANOTHER STATE SO
MAKE SURE WE- STRENGTHENING
EXPANDS I'M REPRODUCTVE HEALTH
RIGHTS IN CALIFORNIA THAT'S NOT
JUST ON PAPER THAT WE ACTUALLY
HAVE THE CAPACITY TO PROVIDE
THOSE SERVICES WE HAVE WE KNOW
WE HAVE- A PHYSICIAN SHORTAGE IN
CALIFORNIA AND- THE NECESSARY
BUT MANY AREAS- I'M WE HAVE
NURSE PRACTITIONERS. ARE
COMPLETELY QUALIFIED TO PERFORM
THIS REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH SERVICE
IT SHOULD BE ABOUT TO DO SO AND-
IS AN AYE VOTE. THANK YOU
SENATOR. WIENER CENTER SKINNER.
I ALSO WANT TO THANK THE ARE TEM
FOR US THIS BILL- THE POINTS
THAT MY COLLEAGUE FROM SAN
FRANCISCO MADE WERE SIMILAR TO
THE ONES I WAS GOING TO MAKE AND
ALSO MY COLLEAGUE FROM IRVINE.
THAT WE ALREADY HAVE A SHORTAGE
OF DOCTORS IN OUR STATE IN
CALIFORNIA. AND WE ARE GOING TO
SEE AN INCREASING. NEED TO HAVE
PRACTITIONERS. BECAUSE OTHER
STATES ARE GOING TO PREVENT
PEOPLE IN THOSE STATES FROM
ACCESSING A- SAFE. WHAT IS IN
OUR STATE LEGAL MEDICAL
PROCEDURE THAT EVERY PERSON HAS
THE RIGHT TO HAVE AND WITH A
INDEPENDENT OF THE SUPREME
COURT'S DECISION WE ALREADY HAVE
STATES DOING THAT AND WE ALREADY
KNOW THAT WE HAVE AN INCREASE OF
PEOPLE COMING FROM ELSEWHERE TO
CALIFORNIA SO NOT ONLY IS THIS
JUST SMART TO DO BECAUSE THE
NURSE PRACTITIONERS HAVE THE
FULL QUALIFICATIONS TO DO THIS
VERY SAFE. MEDICAL PROCEDURE IT
WILL ALSO REDUCE THE STAIN ON
OUR DOCTORS FOR WHICH WE ALREADY
HAVE A DOCTOR SHORTAGE AND THIS
JUST CONTINUES- LEADERSHIP THAT
THE PRO TEMAS CARRIED ON THIS-
VIEW ALLOWING FOR THIS CHANGE OF
A SCOPE FOR YEARS NOW BUT IT
HELPS ENSURE THAT WE ACTUALLY
ACCOMPLISH IT WHEN WE ARE GOING
TO NEED IT THE MOST IN
CALIFORNIA AND WITH THAT I ASK
FOR YOUR I. BOATS THANK YOU
CENTER SKINNER MEMBERS FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE. SEEING
HEARING NONE BETTER PROTECT ME
MY CLOTHES THANK YOU- AND TO MY
COLLEAGUES YOUR COMMENTS ARE
ONLY TWO OTHER POINTS I WANT TO
MAKE BECAUSE THIS BILL- SHOULD
IT WITH YOUR SUPPORT GET OFF
THIS FLOOR TODAY MOVES TO THE
ASSEMBLY I WANT TO SAY I'VE I'VE
WORKED DILIGENTLY- WITH A
STAKEHOLDERS TO TRY TO SURE THAT
WE ARE ENHANCING IN EVERY WAY
POSSIBLE ADEQUATE TRAINING AND
TRAINING. FOR TWO ALREADY HAVE A
LOT OF THIS TRAINING WHICH IS
WHY WE'RE LOOKING AT THIS PIECE
OF LEGISLATION BUT I JUST WANT
TO SAY WALL CORNY LEADS THE WAY
IN TERMS OF THE RIGHT TO PRIVACY
WHICH IN THIS STATE AND ACROSS
THIS COUNTRY UNTIL RECENT HAS
INCLUDED THE PORTION. RIGHT NOT
LEADING WAY. TO THOSE WHO CAN
PROVIDE THE SERVICE. NINE OTHERS
. ALLOW FOR AND TRAINERS
PRACTITIONERS ALREADY TO PROVIDE
FIRST TRIMESTER ABORTION WITHOUT
SUPERVISION OF A DOCTOR.
CALIFORNIA ALREADY ALSO REQUIRES
MORE HOURS OF TRAINING AND YEARS
OF EXPERIENCE THAN ANY OTHER
STATE THAT HAS A TRANSITION TO
PRACTICE FOR NURSE PRACTITIONERS
AND I JUST WANT TO PUT THAT OUT
THERE BECAUSE I THINK THE ISSUE.
IS QUALITY HEALTHCARE AND ACCESS
THESE PRACTITIONERS ARE TRAINED
THEY ARE READY THEY WANT TO
SERVE THEIR PATIENTS WE ARE
MAKING SURE. THAT THE
PROTECTIONS ARE IN PLACE AND
WE'RE FOLLOWING THE LEAD ON THIS
OF NINE OTHER STATES WHO HAVE
PROVEN THAT THIS CAN BE DONE
SAFELY AND EFFECTIVELY SO WITH

COLLEAGUES SB TEN THIRTEEN ADDS
WINE AND DISTILLED SPIRITS TO
CALIFORNIA'S BOTTLE BILL PROGRAM
TO INCREASE RECYCLING RATES AND
TO PROVIDE MORE CONVENIENT
RECYCLING OPPORTUNITIES FOR
CONSUMERS. FIRST I REALLY WANT
TO THANK THE SENATOR FROM NAPA
FOR COLLABORATING WITH ME ON
THIS ISSUE AND THIS MEASURE HIS
POLICY KNOWLEDGE AND THE
ESTABLISHED RELATIONSHIPS HE HAS
IN THIS INDUSTRY HAVE BEEN OF
INCREDIBLE VALUE AS THE
LEGISLATION WAS CRAFTED. I ALSO
WANT TO COMMEND SENATOR FROM
FREMONT FOR HIS YEARS OF
ADVOCACY AND IMPROVING THE
BOTTLE BILL PROGRAM.
CALIFORNIA'S BEVERAGE CONTAINER
RECYCLING AND LITTER REDUCTION
ACT TOOK EFFECT IN NINETEEN
EIGHTY SIX SINCE THIS TIME THE
PROGRAM HAS SUCCESSFULLY
RESULTED IN DRAMATICALLY
INCREASING RECYCLING FOR
ALUMINUM GLASS. AND PT BECAUSE
I'M NOT EVEN GOING TO TRY TO SAY
WHAT THAT STANDS FOR. OUR
PLASTIC BEVERAGE CONTAINERS
HOWEVER THE CURRENT PROGRAM DOES
HAVE A GAP IN THE TYPES OF
RECYCLABLES IT ACCEPTS.
SPECIFICALLY WINE AND DISTILLED
SPIRITS- CONTAINERS THAT MAKE UP
A SIGNIFICANT FRACTION OF THE
BEVERAGE CONTAINER THREE HAVE
NOT BEEN RECYCLABLE UNDER THE
EXISTING BOTTLE BILL. PROGRAM
THIS CREATES CONFUSION AND IN
EQUITIES IN THE PROGRAM AND A
FINANCIAL BURDEN FOR CONSUMERS
WHO HAVE TO PAY THE COST OF
RECYCLING WINE AND DISTILLED
SPIRITS CONTAINERS. AS PART OF
THEIR MONTHLY GARBAGE OR
RECYCLING BILLS. SB TEN THIRTEEN
REMEDIES THIS PROBLEM BY
ENSURING WINE AND SPIRITS
BEVERAGE CONTAINERS ARE TREATED
THE SAME AS OTHER BEVERAGE
CONTAINERS UNDER THE BOTTLE BILL
PROGRAM. THE SIMPLE ADDITION OF
ADDING WINE AND SPIRITS
BEVERAGES TO THIS PROGRAM IS
HISTORIC CHANGE IN THE LAW THAT
IS FORTY YEARS IN THE MAKING. I
WANT TO COMMEND THE WINE
INDUSTRY DISTILLED SPIRITS
INDUSTRY ENVIRONMENTAL ADVOCATES
AND OTHERS WHO COME TOGETHER TO
SUPPORT THIS LANDMARK PROPOSAL.
I'LL CONTINUE TO WORK WITH ALL
THE PARTIES TO ENSURE THESE

WINE INDUSTRY IN THE SPIRITS
INDUSTRY YOU KNOW IN THE ROOM-
WITH THE ADVOCATES- TO COME TO
SUCH A SOLUTION AS WE HAVE TODAY
IS NOT ONLY BETTER FOR
CONSUMERS. IT'S BETTER FOR- THE
RECYCLING AGENCIES IT JUST FROM

CALIFORNIA SO I RESPECTFULLY ASK
YOUR AYE VOTE. THANK YOU CENTER
DODD SENATOR MURKOWSKI.
RESIDENTS TO RICIN SUPPORT OF
THE MEASURE AND THANK TO PRO
TEMP FOR THE WORK- NO MARC IS A
INDEPENDENT THING TAKE THAT DID
A REPORT IN TWENTY NINETEEN AND
THEY SUGGEST THAT WE HAVE. OVER
A BILLION BOTTLES OF WINE AND
SPIRITS THAT DID NOT GET
RECYCLED AND NOT GET REVIEWS MY
COLLEAGUE FROM LOS ANGELES LAST
YEAR HAD A FANTASTIC BILL THAT
WOULD ALLOW FOR THE REUSABLE
BOTTLES AND MANY OF US ARE OLD
ENOUGH TO REMEMBER WE ACTUALLY
WOULD RE USE BOTTLES. AND WINE
NOT SO MUCH SPEAKERS BUT WINE IS
A BRILLIANT ADDITION TO OUR
OPPORTUNITY FOR THAT TECHNOLOGY
WHICH NOW USES A MINIMUM AMOUNT
OF WATER TO BE ADDED TO THAT BUT
WHAT IT REALLY DOES AND WHAT I
APPLAUD. THE PRO TEMP FOR
GETTING THIS ACROSS THE LINE AT
LEAST AT THIS STAGE IN IN THE
LEGISLATIVE UP DANCE IS THAT IT
REALLY IS GOING TO REDUCE OUR
CARBON FOOTPRINT IN IN
CALIFORNIA AND IS GOING TO. JOIN
WITH OTHER NATIONS AND OTHER
JURISDICTIONS AROUND THE WORLD
THAT DOES THAT SO I WOULD URGE
AND I THOUGHT. THANK YOU CENTER
WHITE HOUSE THE MEMBERS FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE. SEEING AND
HEARING THEM BUT HER TENURE MAY
CLOSE. I WOULD JUST RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR YOUR I. BOATS. MADAM

LEE MON MADAM SECRETARY PLEASE
READ SENATE BILL THIRTEEN
FOURTEEN BY SENATOR LIMÓN AN ACT
RELATING TO OIL AND GAS
SIMILARLY MON THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT AND COLLEAGUES I WANT
TO START OFF BY THINKING SENATE
CLIMATE WORKING GROUP FOR
STARTING A VERY IMPORTANT
CONVERSATION. AROUND INCREASE IN
RENEWABLE ENERGY PRODUCTION AND
EXPLORING THE POTENTIAL OF
CARBON CAPTURE IN THE STATE. THE
SENATOR FOR MERCED I HAVE BEEN
WORKING FOR MONTHS ON TRYING TO
ADDRESS HOW WE BRING A COMPLETE
PACKAGE. OF RELATED TO CARBON
CAPTURE UP FOR DIALOGUE FOR
INPUT FOR REVIEW THROUGH THE
LEGISLATIVE PROCESS. I WANT TO
THANK HER IN PARTICULAR BECAUSE
WE HAVE HELD DOZENS OF MEETINGS
OF MANY HOURS IN THE LAST MONTHS
TRYING TO COME FORWARD. WITH A
PERSPECTIVE IN PACKAGE THAT
KEEPS STAKEHOLDERS ARE ENGAGED
IN THIS CONVERSATION. THIS BILL
SB THIRTEEN FOR FOURTEEN
INSURERS THAT CARBON CAPTURE IS
NOT USED TO INCREASE OIL
PRODUCTION ANY MISSIONS THROUGH
A PROCESS KNOWN AS ENHANCED OIL
RECOVERY ALSO KNOWN AS E. O. R.
YOU ARE IS A PROCESS THAT USES
PRESSURE FROM PUMPING CARBON
UNDERGROUND TO PRODUCE
ADDITIONAL OIL THAT WOULD NOT.
BE RECOVERABLE OTHERWISE THIS
PROCESS IS CURRENTLY NOT USED AS
IT RELATES TO CARBON CAPTURE IN
THE STATE AND THIS BILL DOES NOT
PROHIBIT OTHER FORM. YOUR THAT
ARE CURRENTLY USED IN THE SIX
STATES SUCH AS STEAM. A STUDY
REPORTED IN THE ANALYSIS FOR
THIS BILL FOUND THAT CARBON
DIOXIDE YOUR USE USE RESULTED IN
AN INCREASE IN CARBON EMISSIONS
OVERALL. ANOTHER RECENT ANALYSIS
FOUND THAT EXPANDING YOUR WOULD
LEAD DIRECTLY TO OVER FIFTEEN
MILLION METRIC TONS METRIC TONS
OF NET CO TWO EMISSIONS ANNUALLY
. YOU ARE PRESENT SERIOUS HEALTH
AND SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL
RISKS PARTICULARLY FOR
MARGINALIZED FRONTLINE
COMMUNITIES FOR EXAMPLE AN E. O.
R. FIELD IN WYOMING LEAKED AND
SPEWED CARBON INTO THE
ATMOSPHERE NEXT TO A PUBLIC
SCHOOL. WITH AIR POLLUTION SO
SEVERE. BUT IT TOOK ALMOST THE
ENTIRE SCHOOL YEAR TO RETURN.
THE PROMISES TO SAFETY. THE
INTERGOVERNMENTAL PANEL ON
CLIMATE CHANGE IPCC HAS RAISED
SIGNIFICANT CONCERNS ABOUT THE
RISK OF CO TWO LEAKAGE FROM E.
O. R. AND THE U. S. EPA
RECOGNIZES THAT EXISTING OIL
WELLS MAY NOT BE SUITABLE FOR
PERMANENT SEQUESTRATION. IF
CARBON CAPTURE IS REALLY A TOOL
TO HELP MITIGATE THE IMPACT OF
THE CLIMATE CRISIS THEN WHY
WOULD THE STATE PERMITTED TO BE
USED TO INCREASE EMISSIONS
THROUGH INCREASED OIL PRODUCTION
. TO BE. IN THE STATE. IT SETS
AN APPROPRIATE GUARD RAIL TO
ENSURE THAT WE TRULY ARE
PRIORITIZING OUR CLIMATE GOALS.
THIS BILL DOES NOT IMPACT ANY
CURRENT OIL PRODUCTION IN THE
FORM OF ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY
DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE USED IN
CALIFORNIA FOR CCS. AS THE
CONVERSATION CONTINUED AROUND
THE FUTURE OF CARBON CAPTURE IN
THE STATE WE MUST MAKE IT CLEAR
pTHAT INCREASING OIL PRODUCTION
AND EMISSIONS WILL NOT BE PART
OF THE STATE'S. GOALS TO ACHIEVE
OUR CLIMATE TO ACHIEVE OUR
CLIMATE GOALS I REMAIN COMMITTED
TO WORK TOGETHER AND ALIGNED
WITH THE CENTER FOR MERCED TO
MOVE THESE BILLS FORWARD WE ARE
BOTH WORKING TOGETHER AND ASKING
THAT THESE BILLS. A BUT THESE
BILLS THAT THESE BILLS AT MOVE
MOVE FORWARD- IN A MANNER SO WE
CAN CONTINUE TO HAVE THE
INCREASED DIALOGUE AND
CONVERSATION AND ANALYSIS AND
REVIEW AND LEGISLATIVE IMPASSE
AND I DO WANT TO NOTE THAT I
HAVE- MEMBERS AT FROM DIFFERENT
PARTS OF THE STATE FLAG IN THAT
THE TWO WOULD LIKE TO BE PART OF
THIS CONVERSATION AND THAT IS
CERTAINLY A IT IS NOT LIMITED TO
JUST MYSELF AND THE SENATOR FROM
MERCED SO WITH THAT I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN AYE VOTE
THANK YOU SENATOR LIMÓN SENATOR
MEN. MADAM PRESIDENT- I WENT IN
MY COLLEAGUES FROM SANTA BARBARA
FOR BRINGING THIS FORWARD. IS
THE SECOND OF I BELIEVE FOR
BILLS THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE
CONSIDERING RELATED TO CARBON
CAPTURE AND SEQUESTRATION I AND
I AM HOPEFUL AFTER CONVERSATIONS
WITH SOME OF THE AUTHORS THAT
THEY WORK TOGETHER TO HASH OUT
SOME OF THE DIFFERENCES IN THEIR
BILLS. I VOTED FOR THE ONE
YESTERDAY I WILL VOTE FOR THIS
ONE I URGE YOUR AYE VOTE ON THIS
I WILL FOR ALL FOUR BECAUSE I
THINK IT'S CRITICAL THAT WE
EXPLORE ALL OPTIONS AS WE
CONFRONT THE ONE OF OUR TIMES
CLIMATE CHANGE- WE ARE IN THIS
KIND OF CRISIS WERE SEEN
IMPACTS. IN THE WORLD WERE
LEAVING BEHIND FOR OUR CHILDREN
AND GRANDCHILDREN IS ONE THAT IS
A BUSINESS- WE HAVE TO REVERSE
THINGS THAT WE CANNOT FORECLOSE
OPTIONS- WE REALLY HAVE TO
EXPLORE EVERYTHING I'M NOT A
SCIENTIST AND ENGINEER. NOR CAN
I PREDICT THE FUTURE AND I THINK
THAT'S WHY IT'S IMPORTANT THAT
WE INVEST AND EMPOWER ALL
DIFFERENT TYPES OF TECHNOLOGY IS
THE ONLY WAY WE'RE GOING TO
REVERSE THIS IS THROUGH
TECHNOLOGY NONE OF US CAN GO
BACK THEIR HOME DISTRICTS. AND
STATE YOU YOU WILL USE
ELECTRICITY YOU CAN'T USE ENERGY
THAT IS NOT A VIABLE OPTION FOR
OUR SOCIETY FOR COMPANY. THAT
MEET THE INNOVATION TECH. IN
THIS GREEN SPACE IS GOING TO
CRITICAL AND I THINK WE HAVE TO
OUR OPTIONS SO I WOULD URGE YOU
TO CONSIDER ALL THESE CARBON
CAPTURE OPTIONS ALL OF OUR
AVAILABLE OPTIONS AS WE TRY THIS. ANAMENSIS THANK YOU MADAM
MEMBERS. ASSEMBLY WHO IS VERY
CONCERNED ABOUT. THE CLIMATE AND
NOT ONLY JUST THE CLIMATE IN
CALIFORNIA BUT THE CLIMATE
AROUND THE WORLD. WE DO A LOT OF
LEGISLATION IN THIS BODY TO. SET
GOALS OF A 100% RENEWABLE BY A
CERTAIN DATE OR WE'RE GONNA DO.
THIRTY MILLION ELECTRIC VEHICLES
BY TWENTY THIRTY FIVE AND THOSE
GOALS ARE ARE VERY AGGRESSIVE
GOALS. WE HAVE TECHNOLOGY
AVAILABLE TO US TODAY THE ALLOWS
TO CAPTURE CARBON IN STORE IT.
AS WERE PRODUCING. ENERGY FUEL
THINGS THAT EVERY CALIFORNIA
NEEDS NOW YESTERDAY WE SAW A
BILL THAT IS GOING TO BE A PILOT
PROJECT ON. THE MANUFACTURING OF
SEAMEN. THIS BILL IS TALKING
ABOUT NOT ALLOWING US TO USE THE
SAME TECHNOLOGY IN THE
PRODUCTION OF OIL. AT THIS POINT. CALIFORNIANS USE ONE POINT
EIGHT MILLION BARRELS OF OIL
EVERY DAY AND IN NO TIME SOON
ARE WE GOING TO BE AWAY FROM
USING OIL. AT THIS TIME YOU CAN
AFFORD TO LIVE IN CALIFORNIA. WE
HAVE THE HIGHEST ENERGY RATES.
76% HIGHER THAN NEVADA. ARIZONA
OREGON. WHY IS THAT WHY DO WE
HAVE TO PAY MORE. AS WE EXPORT
OUR JOBS AND OUR EMISSIONS TO
OTHER COUNTRIES OR OTHER STATES
AN IMPORT THE GOODS THAT EVERY
CALIFORNIANS NEED IN CASE POINT
IT'S BECAUSE POLICIES. LIKE THIS
THAT DON'T ALOW US TO USE GOOD
TECHNOLOGY ACROSS THE BOARD FOR
ALL. PRODUCTS FOR SOME REASON
THE LEGISLATURE SEEMS TO HAVE.
AN ALL OUT WAR AGAINST OIL IN
CALIFORNIA WILL REPRODUCE IT
MORE EFFICIENT. MORE ENVIRONMENT
FRIENDLY AND WITH CALIFORNIA
WORKERS. IT'S APPALLING. THAT WE
DON'T DO MORE TO MAKE CALIFORNIA
A PLACE WHERE WE CAN ACTUALLY
LEAD THE WORLD. BY NOT IMPORTING
OIL FROM PLACES WHERE THEY'RE
DESTROYING A RAIN FORCE. THE
TECHNOLOGY WE HAVE AVAILABLE WE
SHOULD BE USING ACROSS THE BOARD
IT'S KIND OF LIKE REGULATING
YOUR LAWN MOWER HERE WE NEED
YOUR AND YOUR GENERATOR AS THE
FORSBERG'S DOWN. YOU MIGHT FEEL
GOOD ABOUT IT BUT IT'S NOT DOING
WHAT WE WANTED TO DO. WE NEED TO
DO THIS TECHNOLOGY ACROSS ALL
SECTORS SO WE CAN ACTUALLY LEAD
THE WORLD IN SEQUESTERING CARBON
PUTTING IT BACK IN THE GROUND.
IN MAKING CALIFORNIA SAFER PLACE
A MORE PRODUCTIVE PLACE AND
ACTUALLY LEADING THE WORLD FOR
THOSE REASONS I WILL BE OPPOSING
THIS BILL. THANK YOU SAID
DYRDAHL SENDER GONZALEZ AND
MADAM PRESIDENT IF I MAY JUST
RESPOND. TO SEVERAL MOUNTED DID
YOU HAVE POSED A QUESTION. CAN
YOU DO IN YOUR CLOTHES PLEASE
CEREMONY THANK YOU CENTER
GONZALEZ THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS I TOO
WOULD LIKE TO THANK MY COLLEAGUE
FROM SANTA BARBARA FOR BRINGING
THIS FORWARD AND- REALLY ALL OF
MY COLLEAGUES- IN THE CLIMATE
WORKING GROUP- AND PARTICULARLY
OUR- PRESIDENT PRO TEM. UM FOR
ALLOWING US TO HAVE A DIALOGUE A
REALLY IN DEPTH DIALOGUE ABOUT
THIS TYPES OF THESE TYPES OF
VARIOUS TECHNOLOGIES AND I WILL
SAY SPEAKING FROM AN AREA SOME
THE LESS. FONG BEACH. IN DATA
WITH POLLUTION AND- WITH YOU
KNOW- ISSUE UPON IT. WITH EMPIRE
AND SHE- I BELIEVE THAT- THE CO
TWO LEAKAGE ISSUES THAT HAVE
BEEN BROUGHT UP BY THE E. J.
COMMUNITIES ARE. A REASONABLE
THEY ARE- THEY HAVE HAPPENED AND
SO I THINK WE HAVE TO BE
CAUTIOUS OF THAT AND I DO- AT
HERE WITH MY COLLEAGUES ARE
SAYING BUT WE ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO
BE CAUTIOUS OF THAT I THOUGHT IT
URGENT. BOATS AND I THINK MY
COLLEAGUES FROM THE WORKING
GROUP FOR COMING TOGETHER WITH
VARIOUS- UNDERSTANDINGS WITH THE
VARIOUS FROM VARIOUS REGIONS OF
THE STATE WITH VARIOUS
PERSPECTIVES TO BE ABLE TO
REALLY COME TOGETHER TO. TO
BUILD A PLAN THAT WORKS FOR ALL
OF US OF THANK YOU VERY MUCH I
URGE I PUT. THE USER GONZALEZ
CENTER LAYERED. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH MADAM PRESIDENT BECAUSE
SOME OF US ARE WENT ON A TRIP.
TO ICELAND DURING THE BREAK AND
ACTUALLY SAW. A CARBON AIR
CAPTURE WHERE IT WAS FUNDED I
MEAN IT WAS POWERED RENEWABLY-
IT TOOK CARBON FROM THE AIR. IT
WAS CLEARLY A PRODUCTIVE THING
AND WHAT IT WHAT WE ARE SEEING
AND IT WAS MENTIONED THERE FOR
BILLS THERE ARE TWO I THINK IN
CHIEF AND THE EACH COMMENTED
FROM A LITTLE BIT OF A DIFFERENT
WAY WAS JUST REFERENCED THAT
THERE SOME GEOGRAPHICAL.
DIFFERENCES AND N. ONE BILL- HAS
REAL CONCERNS EXPRESSED ON
ENVIRONMENTAL OUR ENVIRONMENTAL
JUSTICE COMMUNITY THE OTHER BILL
HAS REAL CONCERNS EXPRESSED FROM
CERTAIN LABOR ORGANIZATIONS BUT
BASICALLY IT'S OUR JOB TO
GOVERN. AND IT WOULD BE EASY TO
RELAPSE. EACH BILL GO ON ITS OWN
AND SEE IF ONE MAKES IT BUT THE
ODDS ARE THAT THEY WOULD BOTH
CRASH SHOULD WE WOULD GET
THROUGH THE SESSION WITHOUT ANY
MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT ON THIS
POLICY. AND SO WHAT HAS HAPPENED
IS AN IMPORTANT ENGAGEMENT
DISCUSSIONS BETWEEN THE TWO
LEGISLATORS AND QUESTION TO TRY
TO BRIDGE THE GAPS AND THEY HAVE
MADE PROGRESS IN AND I THINK
THAT THE REAL THING OF GOVERNING
IS TO GIVE THEM A CHANCE TO WORK
IT OUT GIVE THEM A CHANCE TO SEE
IF THEY CAN FIND A COMMON
GROUND. IN SOME WAY AND ADDRESS
THIS ISSUE SO THAT WE DON'T MOVE
OUT OF SESSION AND HAVE
EVERYBODY IN THEIR RESPECTIVE
CORNERS WITHOUT THERE BEING
SOMETHING THAT MOVES AHEAD SO I
THINK IT'S VERY IMPORTANT TO
MOVE BOTH THESE BILLS AHEAD. AND
I AM SURE EACH OF US HAS AN
ISSUE WITH ONE PART IN ONE OR
ANOTHER BUT TO GIVE THEM THE
CHANCE TO WORK IT OUT AND THEY
HAVE MADE PROGRESS AND SO I
REALLY URGE MEMBERS. TO MOVE
THIS BILL FORWARD AND WHEN THE
BILL. FROM HER FORMER SAID
REALLY URGE EVERYONE REGARDLESS
OF YOUR VIEWS TO MOVE THAT POINT
FORWARD AND HAVE IT BE A
STATEMENT THAT WE WANT SOMETHING
TO HAPPEN ON THIS ISSUE SO I
RECKON RESPECTFULLY REQUEST AN
AYE VOTE ON THIS BILL. THANK-
LAYERED CENTER PAM. THANK YOU
MADAM PRESIDENT SENATORS- FIRST
OF ALL I WANT TO THANK MY GOOD
FRIEND FROM SANTA BARBARA AND-
MERCED FOR WORKING TOGETHER ON
CLIMATE DONE- CARBON CAPTURE. ME
ULTIMATELY MY NO CLIMATE CRISIS
IS REAL HOPE HOPEFULLY NO ONE
DISAGREES WITH THAT. AND WE NEED
TO FIGURE OUT HOW WE GET.
BASICALLY WELL FIRST OF ALL
REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF CARBON AND
IDEALLY DRIVE IT DOWN RIGHT- NO
NO I WILL SAY I AM I'M A LITTLE
SKEPTICAL ABOUT THIS BILL-
BECAUSE IS THE AUTHOR SAID.
ACTUALLY WE CAN USE OUR THINK
ABOUT OTHER THINGS INTO THE
GROUND TO GET MORE OIL OUT
RIGHT- SO IF WE PUT CARBON DOWN
THERE AT LEAST A AND IT'S TO ME
DOESN'T LEAK SO THERE'S OTHER
ROLLS RIGHT AWAY THE PLAN PLACE
THEN AT LEAST THE NET CARBON IS
LESS THAN IF WE JUST USE THEME
OR SOMETHING ELSE SO I'M LOOKING
ABOUT REMOVING THAT OFF THE
TABLE BUT I ALSO GET PEOPLE'S
CONCERNS THAT WELL ACTUALLY YES
WE PUT MORE COMMON GROUND AND
WE'RE PULLING UP EVEN PERHAPS
CARBON WITHIN THE GROUND SO
WE'RE STILL NET POSITIVE RIGHT.
BUT BUT YOU SMALL POSITIVE THAT
TWENTY SOMETHING ELSE IN THE
GROUND IT'S NOT BANNING THOSE
THOSE EFFORTS AND I KNOW WE'VE
HAD DISCUSSIONS HERE ON THE
FLOOR AS WELL BUT I THINK
THERE'S BY THE END- IT'S ABOUT
NOT ONLY OF COURSE REDUCING THE-
THE USAGE AND BY THE WAY SOME OF
THE DEMAND DRIVEN AND I DO
APPRECIATE WHAT DOES MY FRIENDS
ACROSS THE AISLE ARE SAYING IS
THAT. IF YOU KNOW FALSE. IN THE
STATE AND DON'T FIGURE OUT OF
THE TREES THAT MAN. AND WE DON'T
PRODUCE IT HERE IT COMES SOME
OTHER PLACES AND PERHAPS USING
EVEN MORE CARBON TO BRING IT
NTO OUR STATE. SO QUESTIONS
LIKE WHERE DO YOU LAND TO TRY TO
MINIMIZE THE AMOUNT OF CARBON WE
SE. HERE NOW IN CALIFORNIA
AROUND THE WORLD. AND WE NEED
TO. AND CARBON CAPTURE IS PART
OF THAT SOLUTION IS NOT THE
ENTIRE SOLUTION THERE'S NO WAY
WE CAPTURE ALL THE CARBON HE
NEEDS TO MAKE UP FOR ALL THE
CARBON WE'RE DIGGING OUT. BUT IT
IS SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO DO
AND I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT.
WE ALLOW THE BILL TO GO FORWARD
TO HAVE THAT CONVERSATION AND I
THINK IT. WAS MENTIONEDBEFORE
THAT HOPEFULLY IDEALLY WE COME
UP WITH SOME KIND OF SOLUTION.
LEGISLATIVELY POLICY WISE THAT
WILL ALLOW US TO DO CARBON
CAPTURE. IN ADDITION TO THE
CONSUMING WORK WE'RE DOING. TO
TRY TO REDUCE THE DEMAND THAT WE
HAVE FOR CARBON. AND OTHER TYPES
OF GREENHOUSE GASES IN OUR
COMMUNITY. SO AFTER THAT IS A
SKEPTIC. ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR
BILL- I'M SUPPORTING THIS BILL
BECAUSE I THINK THIS IS A VERY
IMPORTANT CONVERSATION TO MOVE
FORWARD. AND I DO THINK THAT
ANSWERED THE AUTHOR IS GOING TO
WORK OUT SOME OF THE NUANCES
THAT I SEE ABOUT WHAT CAN WE DO
IN THE- END THAT WILL HELP US
GET THE NEXT LEAST AMOUNT OF
CARBON WE'RE PUMPING INTO THE
AIR AND IDEALLY EVEN. YOU MIGHT
THINK. THE REDUCING THE ACTUAL
AMOUNT CARBON AND AIR. SO THAT
WE CAN ADDRESS THE CLIMATE
CRISIS WITH THAT ASPECT YES WHEN
I DON'T. THANK YOU SENATOR PAN
CENTER GROVE BILL. THANK YOU
MADAM PRESIDENT I RESPECTFULLY
RISE IN OPPOSITION AGAIN THIS
BILL. I DO QUESTION THE AUTHOR
THOUGH. SIMILARLY MOM WE TAKE A
QUESTION YES PLEASE PROCEED
THANK YOU MY GOOD COLLEAGUE- HOW
MANY METRIC TONS OF CARBON WILL
THESE FIELDS CAPTURE. SO I WANT
TO BE CLEAR THAT THIS BILL
THERE'S BEEN SOME CONFUSION THIS
BILL DOES NOT BAN OR STOP CARBON
CAPTURE THIS IS ABOUT ENHANCED
OIL RECOVERY SO. THERE IS ONE
BILL THAT THE AT MEMBERS WILL
HAVE THE CHANCE TO VOTE FOR THAT
ESTABLISHES THE BEGINNING OF A
FRAMEWORK THIS IS ONE COMPONENT
OF THE MANY THINGS THAT CAN
HAPPEN WHEN YOU CAPTURE THAT
CARBON STILL EVERY PROJECT WILL
CAPTURE A DIFFERENT AMOUNT.
RIGHT SO THIS DOESN'T SPEAK TO
WHETHER IT'S A CEMENT PROJECT OR
WHETHER IT'S A REFINERY PROJECT
OR ANY OTHER KIND OF PROJECTS SO
I CAN'T ANSWER THAT QUESTION
BECAUSE IT IS BASED ON THE
PRODUCT ITSELF SO I THINK IT'S-
IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT
THIS BILL DOESN'T STOP CARBON
CAPTURE PROGRAMS THIS IS ABOUT A
METHOD. THAT CAN BE IN THAT SOME
MAY OR MAY NOT USE. WITH THE
CARBON THAT THEY CAPTURE THIS IS
NOT ABOUT THIS DOESN'T IMPACT
CARBON CAPTURE PROGRAMS.
ESTABLISHING CARBON CAPTURE
PROGRAMS I UNDERSTAND THAT I WAS
IN THE GROWTH THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT. I UNDERSTAND THAT I
WAS- TRYING TO GET. A RESPONSE
BECAUSE- I FEEL LIKE WE ARE
REALLY REALLY REALLY MISSING THE
BOAT AND I THINK MY GOOD
COLLEAGUE FROM SACRAMENTO FOR AT
LEAST ADMITTING THAT THERE IS AT
LEAST A CONVERSATION THAT CAN BE
HAD. AN ONE GALLON JUST ONE
GALLON LIKE A GALLON OF MILK.
ONE GALLON OF DIESEL FUEL. THAT
COMES- FROM THE SHIPS THAT BRING
US WELL FROM SAUDI ARABIA IRAQ
AND ECUADOR. BURNS TWENTY EIGHT.
AN EXCUSE ME TWENTY TWO POINT
EIGHT POUNDS OF CO TWO TWENTY
TWO POINT EIGHT POUNDS. ONE TRIP
ONE WAY. FROM SAUDI ARABIA TO
HEAR. BURNS TWENTY SEVEN POINT.
SIX SEVEN TWENTY SEVEN POINT SIX
SEVEN METRIC TONS. OF CARBON CO
TWO. KERN COUNTY THE EPICENTER
THE OIL THE OIL AT THE CENTER OF
THE ENERGY EPICENTER ACTUALLY
FOR THIS STATE 70% OF THE
STATE'S OIL AND GAS FOSSIL FUELS
53% OF THE STATE'S RENEWABLE
GAS- WINDMILL IN WIND TURBINES
WE IN THE COUNTY UNDERSTANDING
WOULD LIKE TO HOPEFULLY. IMPART
THAT KNOWLEDGE TO YOU GUYS THAT
YOU HAVE TO HAVE OIL TO PRODUCE
WIND TURBINES. AND YOU HAVE TO
HAVE OIL TO PRODUCE SOLAR. IT
TAKES ABOUT TWELVE THOUSAND
GALLONS OF OIL TO MAKE AWIND
TURBINE WORK IN A YEAR. SO WE
CAN'T HAVE ONE WITHOUT THE
OTHER. AND AS MUCH AS YOU GUYS
CONTINUALLY ATTACK MY DISTRICT.
AND THE PEOPLE THAT WORK THERE
IN THE JOBS AND I REALIZE THIS
THIS NOT MAYBE PARTICULAR FOR
THIS BILL EXCEPT FOR THE CARBON
CAPTURE ME SON OIL AND NATURAL
GAS SUPPLY. AND IS MEANT TO YOU
GUYS CONTINUE TO ATTACK IT WE DO
IT RIGHT. WE PRODUCE THERE'S
FIFTY EIGHT COUNTIES IN THIS
STATE AND WE- 3% OF THIS THREE
NOBLE ENERGY. WE KNOW ENERGY
COME VISIT US LET US SHOW YOU WE
HAVE A E. I. R. KERN COUNTY I
ARE AND MAKES S. NEXT TO CARBON
NEUTRAL ON EVERY BARREL OF OIL
THAT COMES OUT OF THE GROUND
EVERY BARREL OF OIL. WE HAVE
APPROVAL FOR CARBON CAPTURE
FIELD TO USE SO THAT WE CAN
CAPTURE THE REST OF THE CARBON
IS PRODUCED BY THE OIL INDUSTRY
AND NOW THIS BILL IS SAYING WE
CAN'T DO IT FOR ENHANCED OIL
RECOVERY. IF YOU DON'T GET OIL
FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES THAT ARE
HOSTILE TO US THE BILL LET WOMEN
VOTE. THAT AND YOU KNOW. MAKE
WOMEN SUBSERVIENT TO MEN ON A
CONTINUOUS BASIS. THAT DESTROY
AND BULLDOZED DOWN THE
RAINFOREST AND DON'T HAVE THE
SAME ENVIRONMENTAL AND
REGULATORY PROCESSES THAT WE
HAVE HERE IN CALIFORNIA. YOU
HAVE TO GET IT FROM CALIFORNIA.
AND WE'RE THE EPICENTER IN BILLS
LIKE THIS JUST ATTACK MY
DISTRICT AND WITH ALL DUE
RESPECT I DON'T RUN A TON OF.
THAT ATTACK YOUR DISTRICT. YOU
HAVE ONE ALMOST ON A DAILY BASIS
. IN THIS CHAMBER TO ATTACK MY
DISTRICT WHO DOES NOTHING BUT
HELP ALL OF YOUR DISTRICTS
PROVIDE ENERGY FOR YOUR
CONSTITUENTS AND GROW THE FOOD
YOU EAT. I JUST DON'T GET IT
THIS IS A UNDER. WITH HER AND
OTHER QUESTION THERE NO I'M ON
MY OWN TIME MA'AM. IS A SENATE
THING OR AN ASSEMBLY THING I YOU
KNOW IT'S A SENATE THING- I
DIDN'T KNOW THAT. ALL RIGHT ON
MY OWN TIME ON YOUR OWN TIME AND
TO MATCH THE BILL PLEASE YEAH
ABSOLUTELY WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
CARBON CAPTURE AND THAT'S WHAT
I'M ADDRESSING YOUR LITTLE CARD
CAN'T. YEAH CARBON CAPTURE IN MY
DISTRICT MA'AM. SO CARBON
CAPTURE BORDER IN MY DISHONORING. THIS PERCENT RETURN WHAT IS
YOUR POINT OF ORDER I UNDERSTAND
HE'S IN THE RULES YOU'RE NOT
SUPPOSED TO REGARD A MEMBER
PERSONALLY AND INDIVIDUALLY CALL
THEM OUT I HEARD IN THE REMARKS
SAYING THAT A MEMBER IS
ATTACKING ANOTHER MEMBER INNER
DISTRICTS I'D LIKE THEM TO SPEAK
TO THE MERITS OF THE BILL AND
NOT. ADDRESS INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS-
AND BREAK SENATE PROTOCOL.
INCORRECT THE POINT OF ORDER IS
WELL TAKEN YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED
TO CALL OUT OTHER MEMBERS WHO
DID NOT USERNAME BUT YES. ONE OF
ORDER IS WELL TAKEN PLEASE
PROCEED. I DID A CALL OUT OF
PARTICULAR MEMBER I TALKED ABOUT
THE BODY AS A WHOLE. IT WASN'T A
PARTICULAR MEMBER IT WAS THESE
BODIED ON THE BILL. SO THE BILL
THE BILL IS JUST ANOTHER
MECHANISM THAT ATTACKS MY
DISTRICT. WE USE WE HAVE AN
APPROVAL FOR ONE OF THE MOST
GREATEST CARBON CAPTURE WE WERE
THE FIRST ONES HOW MANY GUYS IN
YOUR DISTRICT HAVE A CARBON
CAPTURE FIELDING YOUR DISTRICTS
RIGHT NOW WE HAVE ONE BECAUSE
WE'RE TRYING TO PIECE ALL OF YOU
TO SHOW YOU THAT WE CAN.
RECOVERY IN A VERY SAFE AND
EFFECTIVE WAY INSTEAD OF
POLLUTING THE WORLD WITH BUNKER
FUEL TANKER SHIPS THAT BRING IT
TO OUR STATE OR BULLDOZED DOWN
THE RAINFOREST SO WE'RE SHOWING
YOU THAT WE CAN DO THIS WE HAVE
A WE HAVE BEEN DOING IT FOR THE
LAST I DON'T KNOW A HUNDRED
YEARS AND WE GOT INTO TECHNOLOGY
AS FAR AS GREEN ENERGY. PRODUCED
53% OF THE STATE'S GREEN
TECHNOLOGY IN GREEN ENERGY.
EXPENDING TRANSMISSION LINES AND
ALL THOSE THINGS WE'RE THE ONLY
COUNTY IT HAS MAJOR TRANSIT
GOING. GOOD SO WE CAN SHOW YOU.
I DO IT RIGHT IN THIS CERTAIN
THIS BILL SIR CONDEMNS THAT
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR NO VOTE
BECAUSE CENTER GROVE CENTER DODD
. YEAH PRESIDENT MEMBERS. I MAY
BE BRIEF YOU KNOW WE'VE HEARD IN
THIS IN THIS ROOM HERE A NUMBER
OF TIMES WITH BILLS AND MAYBE
EVEN BACK TO THE ASSEMBLY ABOUT
- CLIMATE CHANGE BEING A CLEAR
AND EXISTENTIAL THREAT TO
MANKIND AS WE KNOW IT. BUT THEN
WE HEAR POSITS FROM TIME TO TIME
EXCEPT. IF THERE'S NOT TESLA OR
LABOR PEACE OF TESLA EXCEPT IF
THERE'S NOT- AUTOMATION AT THE
PORTS. AND NOW WE'RE HEARING
EXCEPT- IF THERE'S- ENHANCED OIL
RECOVERY. I DO AGREE WITH THAT
BY COLLEAGUES FROM FROM THE
OTHER SIDE OF THE ISLAND SOME OF
THEIR POINTS THAT THEY MAKE I'VE
TALKED. TO WITH A I CARE MIKE
I'VE TALKED TO MY COLLEAGUE WITH
WITH THE OTHER BILL AND IN THE
IN THE CENTER FROM YOUR SANTA
CRUZ I THINK THEY DO MAKE SENSE
IT'S NOT AN EITHER OR THING
RIGHT NOW THEY TOLD ME WHAT WE
HAVE TO DO IS WE HAVE TO GET TO
A PLACE WHERE WE'RE GONNA
HOPEFULLY MERE A FEDERAL POLICY
OR- SPON OFTEN THAT. YOU'LL BE A
BETTER LEADER- YOUR FOR THE
CALIFORNIA STATE SENATE ON THIS
SPECIFIC ISSUE. SO I WILL BE
TRUST TRUSTING- THE LEADERSHIP.
WHO HAS- MOVED BOTH OF THESE
BILLS FOR. AND WITH THAT IN
MIND- I ASK FOR YOUR AYE VOTE ON
THIS BILL. THANK CENTER DOT
MEMBERS FURTHER DISCUSSION OR
DEBATE. SEEING AND HEARING THEM
SENATE LET ALONE YOU MAY CLOSE
THANK YOU MEMBERS AND I
APPRECIATE THE DISCUSSION AND
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU
HAVE A BILL- AND IT GOES THROUGH
THE LEGISLATIVE PROCESS YOU'RE
ABLE TO HAVE A PUBLIC
CONVERSATION. RECEIVE
LEGISLATIVE INPUT REVIEW AND
ANALYSIS- AND I RESPECT ALL THE
DIFFERENT POINTS OF. WANT TO GO
ON RECORD FIRST. IN THE ATTIC
KERN COUNTY AND I HAVE VISITED-
THE COMMUNITIES THERE WE DO HAVE
SUPPORT FROM THIS BILL FROM KERN
COUNTY- CONSTITUENTS- IN SO I
THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT TO KNOW
BECAUSE- THIS IS ONE TOOL THERE
IS NO ONE IN THIS STATE RIGHT
NOW THAT IS USING ENHANCED OIL
RECOVERY RELATED TO CARBON
CAPTURE. I REPEAT THAT THERE IS
NO ONE IN THIS STATE THAT IS
USING ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY
RELATED TO CARBON CAPTURE AND
THIS IS ABOUT ENSURING THAT A
TOOL- THAT HAVE POTENTIAL TO
IMPACT FRONTLINE COMMUNITIES IS
NOT A TOOL THAT WILL BE USED TO
EVEN. THE PROJECT. IN OUR STATE
THIS IS NOT A TOOL THAT'S BEING
USED AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE IT
MOVES FORWARD THIS BILL DOES NOT
STOP ANY CARBON CAPTURING
PROGRAM IN ANY OF THE SPECIFIC
INDUSTRIES AS A MATTER OF FACT
YESTERDAY A LOT OF VOTED AT FOR
ONE OF THE CARBON CAPTURE BILLS
THAT INCLUDED THIS LANGUAGE IN
THE BATTLE FOR THE PILOT
PROJECT- THAT WAS EXIST THAT
EXISTS FOR CEMENT SO WE HAVE A
RECORD. OF THIS AND I'LL PASS A
FOR PURPOSES OF CONTINUING THE
CONVERSATION- THAT WE MOVE THIS
BILL FORWARD AND WE VúI. THE

OF THE GROUP THAT WORKS HARD TO
CRAFT PRACTICAL SOLUTIONS TO
MEET OUR GHG GOALS I ESPECIALLY
WOULD LIKE TO RECOGNIZE THE
SENATOR FROM SANTA BARBARA FOR
WORKING WITH. WITH ME TO MEET
WITH THE STAKEHOLDERS AS WE
DISCUSSED CARBON CAPTURE AND
ALSO RECOGNIZE THE CHAIR THE
SENATOR FROM SANTA CRUZ FOR
SHEPHERDING US THROUGH THIS
PROCESS I'S NOT EASY TO GET A
GROUP OF SENATORS TOGETHER. TO
DISCUSS POLICY THAT IS VERY
DIFFICULT AND COMPLICATED AND SO
I REALLY WANT TO RECOGNIZE THAT
THE HARD WORK THAT WENT INTO IT.
AND I ALSO WANT TO THANK
EVERYONE WHO MET WITH US TO
DISCUSS THE C. C. U. S. POLICY-
DESPITE THEIR DISAGREEMENTS ON
HOW TO DO IT AND WHEN TO DO IT
AND WHETHER IT SHOULD IT SHOULD
HAPPEN AT ALL I THINK WE HAD
SOME REALLY ROBUST CONVERSATIONS
SO. ON I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE
FOR MEETING WITH US. NUMEROUS
EXPERTS. INCLUDING THE
INTERGOVERNMENTAL PANEL ON
CLIMATE CHANGE THE INTERNATIONAL
ENERGY AGENCY STANFORD
UNIVERSITY LAWRENCE. LIVERMORE
NATIONAL LABORATORY THE
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA AT
BERKELEY AND THE UNIVERSITY OF
CALIFORNIA AT LAST AT AT LOS
ANGELES ALL. INCREDIBLY
DEDICATED RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS
INCLUDING THE CALIFORNIA AIR
RESOURCES BOARD HAVE IDENTIFIED
C. C. U. S. AS A CRITICAL AND
NECESSARY COMPONENT OF
SUCCESSFUL CLIMATE ACTION WE
NASH. THE CALIFORNIA CARBON
NEUTRALITY BY TWENTY FORTY FIVE
AND NET NEGATIVE EMISSIONS
THEREAFTER WILL REQUIRE A
MULTITUDE OF CLIMATE CHANGE IN
ITS INITIATIVES ONE THAT IS
VITAL TO OUR STATE SUCCESS IS
CARBON CAPTURE UTILIZATION IS
SEQUESTRATION. AS THE TECHNOLOGY
ADVANCES WE NEED TO LOOK AT ALL
OUR TECHNOLOGIES TO BE ABLE TO
ANALYZE AND TO DETERMINE WHETHER
THEY HELP US TO MEET OUR GOALS.
SO THIS SENTIMENT IS SHARED WITH
OUR EX WITH ARE NOT ONLY OUR
EXPERT SCIENTIST BUT OUR FEDERAL
PARTNERS. AS WELL IN ORDER TO

SYSTEM AND THE CALIFORNIA STATE
TEACHERS RETIREMENT SYSTEM FROM
CONTINUING TO INVEST IN THE TWO
HUNDRED LARGEST FOSSIL FUEL
COMPANIES NAMED THE CARBON
UNDERGROUND TWO HUNDRED. SB
ELEVEN SEVENTY THREE BUILDS UPON
A GLOBAL DIVESTMENT MOVEMENT
THAT INCLUDES THE UC SYSTEM
WHICH I VESTED OVER A BILLION
DOLLARS OF INVESTMENT IN FOSSIL
FUELS AS WELL AS OUR CSU'S WHICH
DIVESTED THEIR PORTFOLIO LEADER
LAST YEAR AS YOU ALL MAY
REMEMBER THE LEGISLATURE. FOR
WITH DIRECTED. ENGINE SYSTEMS TO
DIVEST FROM COAL COMPANIES AND
THE COUNTRIES OF SUDAN AND IRAN
AND THE PENSION BOARDS
THEMSELVES HAVE INDEPENDENTLY
CHOSEN TO DIVEST FROM TOBACCO.
GUN MANUFACTURERS PRIVATE
PRISONS AND SOUTH AFRICA THESE
DIVESTMENTS HAVE RESULTED IN A
POSITIVE FINANCIAL RETURN EXCEPT
FOR THE TYPE TOBACCO PORTFOLIO
AGAIN WHICH IS BOARD LEAD.
ARTICLE SIXTEEN OF THE
CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION ****
EXPLICITLY ALLOWS THE
LEGISLATURE TO PROHIBIT
INVESTMENTS BY CALPERS AND CAL
STIRS. WHERE THERE IS PUBLIC
INTEREST TO DO SO DESPITE THE
CONSTITUTIONAL AUTHORITY I HAVE
INCLUDED LANGUAGE IN THIS BILL
THAT EMPOWERS BOTH PENSION
BOARDS TO REFRAIN FROM
IMPLEMENTING THIS BILL SHOULD
THEY DETERMINE. IN GOOD FAITH
THAT T WOULD IMPACT THEIR
FIDUCIARY DUTIES UNDER THE
CONSTITUTION. THIS IS ALSO AS
SOMETHING THAT WAS ADDED AND
SENATE LABOR AS WELL AS IN THE
IS IN OUR CONSTITUTION AS WELL
SO THIS IS ALL EXPLICIT AND
VERY. IN VERY. FINALLY WE HAVE
ALSO. AMENDMENTS AND SENATE
LABOR AND JUDICIARY AND I WANT
TO THANK MY COLLEAGUES FOR THEIR
SUPPORT IN THAT. A TO PROVIDE A
TO GO TO GIVE THE FUNDS EIGHT
YEARS TO SCALE DOWN THAT
INVESTMENTS AND ALLOW THEM TO

UNFORESEEABLE EVENT CREATE

YOU THANK YOU CENTER GONZALEZ
MEMBERS DISCUSSION AND DEBATE
SENATOR NIELSEN. BETTER
PRESIDENT LADIES ON THE SENATE.
OVER THE MANY YEARS I'VE BEEN
HERE THEY'VE BEEN COUNTLESS
DIVESTITURE BILLS. THE VESTMENT
BILLS IF YOU WILL. I VOTED FOR
SOME MOST OF MY VOTED AGAINST
BECAUSE I DON'T THINK IT'S GOOD
POLICY. IT'S A STATEMENT MAYBE
TO THESE MASSIVE GIGANTIC
PENSION FUNDS. BUT IS IT ALWAYS
TO THE ADVANTAGE OF THE
PENSIONERS. NOT IT IS SOMETIMES
IT'S COST THEM DEARLY AND GOT
THEM IN TROUBLE. THIS PARTICULAR
ONE. I GUESS I'M WORRYING A BIT
. ABOUT THE- BARELA CONDEMNATION
OF THE FOSSIL FUELS IN THE WORLD
IN AMERICA IN CALIFORNIA. WE
NEED TO LOOK BEYOND OUR NOSES TO
THE FUTURE NOW MAYBE SOME THINK
THAT THEY ARE LET'S GET RID OF
FOSSIL FUELS FEMEN DC THINK
THAT'S BEEN A GOOD IDEA. I DON'T
THINK SO. IF WE DEPEND ON A ONLY
IN WHICH IS A WORD FOR WIND OR
SOLAR ENERGY. THE TAKE CARE OF
OUR GRANDCHILDREN'S ENERGY NEEDS
IN THE FUTURE. WE'RE CONDEMNING
THEM TO A COMPROMISED FUTURE I
TRULY BELIEVE THAT. FOSSIL FUELS
HAVE HAD AND WILL HAVE AND
CONTINUE AND SHOULD AVE THEIR
PLACE IN OUR FUTURE. SO NOW THIS
ATTACK. ON THE FOSSIL FUEL
INDUSTRY DAY AFTER DAY. AND NOW
WITH THE PENSIONS AS WELL. I DO
NOT THINK IT'S IN THE DEFENSE
LETTERS TO THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA. NOR THE PENSIONERS
AND MORE PARTICULARLY OUR
GRANDCHILDREN ORIGINAL THANK YOU
SENATOR NELSON CENTER GLAZER.
AREA. THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT-
AND MEMBERS- I'M TRYING TO
SEPARATE THE ISSUE OF- THE A
POLITICAL STATEMENT. VERSUS THE
FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITIES OF
PENSION SYSTEM AND THAT YOU KNOW
WE TAKE POSITIONS ON THIS FLOOR
WHERE WE HAVE A PHILOSOPHICAL
VIEW ONE THING OR ANOTHER- BUT
IT'S QUITE DIFFERENT IF YOU HAVE
THAT THAT RESPONSIBILITY- AS
MENTIONED BY THE AUTHOR. YOU
KNOW WE TOOK ACTION THE BILL- IF
YOU WEEKS AGO ABOUT RUSSIAN
ASSETS- BUT INCLUDED IN THAT
BILL. WAS OF A SIMILAR PROVISION
IS INCLUDED IN THIS BILL. THAT
SAYS THAT YOU STILL HAVE A
RESPONSIBILITY AS A FIDUCIARY IF
YOU'RE ON THESE PENSION BOARDS
TO MAKE THE BEST JUDGMENT THAT
YOU CAN MAKE IN THE INTEREST OF.
THE PENSIONERS THAT YOU'RE
RESPONSIBLE FOR. AND SO MY
QUESTION TO THE AUTHOR WOULD BE
THAT. RIGHT NOW SHE'S NOT A
SENATOR ANYMORE A DISTINGUISHED
SENATOR COURSE CERTAINLY ONE-
BUT NOW YOU'RE ON THIS PENSION
BOARD AND YOUR BILL HAS PASSED
WE PASS THIS BILL IT'S BEEN
SIGNED INTO LAW. WHAT'S THE
PROCESS THAT YOU WOULD GO
THROUGH- AS A MEMBER OF THE
PENSION BOARD TO DETERMINE
WHETHER OR NOT. ACTING AS A
FIDUCIARY YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO
THE BILL THAT. YOU'RE CURRENTLY
AUTHORIZED. CENTER GLAZER THAT A
QUESTION OF THE AUTHOR IT WAS.
WE TAKE A QUESTION SENATOR
GONZALEZ ABSOLUTELY PLEASE
PROCEED THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT I WANT TO THANK MY
COLLEAGUE- FROM CONTRA COSTA
ORINDA. FOR BRINGING THAT
FORWARD AND YES AS MENTIONED IN
MY OPENING STATEMENT IT IS
INCLUDED IN THE BILL SECTION F.
NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL
REQUIRE A BOARD TO TAKE ACTION
AS DESCRIBED IN THE SECTION
UNLESS THE BOARD DETERMINES IN
GOOD FAITH. THAT THE ACTION
DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION IS
CONSISTENT WITH. JERRY RESPONSE.
THE BOARD AS DESCRIBED IN THE
CONSTITUTION SO- AND ON TOP OF
THAT AS MENTIONED AS WELL IF
THERE ARE UNFORESEEABLE
CIRCUMSTANCES THAT SHOULD SAY
THAT AFTER THE EIGHT YEARS. OR
AT A POINTS NEXT YEAR WORDS JUST
AN ANOMALY AND WE HAVE YOU KNOW
SOME ISSUES THEN THERE'S AN
EXTENSION OF FIVE YEARS THE ON
THE EIGHT YEARS THAT WOULD BE
GIVEN FOR UNFORESEEABLE
CIRCUMSTANCES WHICH WAS TAKEN
AND- SENATE LABOR- SENATOR
GLAZERS. WELL I THINK THE AUTHOR
FROM LONG BEACH FOR HER
THOUGHTFULNESS AND HER RESPONSE.
BECAUSE I GUESS WHAT IT LEAVES
ME WITH THIS IS THIS IS A- IS A
POLITICAL STATEMENT THE
STATEMENT OF. IS WHAT I LIKE TO
SEE US REDUCE OUR RELIANCE UPON.
FOSSIL FUELS YES. WHAT I LIKE TO
AS WE HAVE IS THE SENATE AND AS
A LEGISLATURE PROMOTED
ALTERNATIVE ENERGIES OF COURSE.
BECAUSE THE FUELS THAT WE'RE
CONCERNED ABOUT ARE GOING TO GO
AWAY TOMORROW. AND HEART OUR
SYSTEM RELIES UPON THEM. ON A
GIVEN THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT WE
FIND OURSELVES IN. SO I A- I
SAID IN MY- IT'S A GOAL IN THIS
BILL IS THAT- A VALUE IN A GOAL
OKAY. BUT I DO KNOW THAT IF I
WAS A TO DO SHERRY. THAT IT
WOULDN'T BE A REQUIREMENT THAT
WOULD- OBSCURE MY DECISION ABOUT
ADVANCING THE THAT THE PURPOSES
OF OUR RETIREMENT SYSTEMS. AND
SO WITH THAT I'M GOING TO

AND IN TERMS OF THEIR FUTURE.
WHEN WE LOOK AT WHAT'S HAPPENING
ON THE PLANET NOW. AND HOW IT'S
GETTING WORSE IT'S NOT NORMAL OR
JUST RANDOM. THE CALIFORNIA HAS

WORST WILDFIRES AND IN OUR
HISTORY. IT SAYS THE LAST FEW
YEARS AND THAT THE WILDFIRE
SEASON BECAUSE I ALMOST YEAR

NOT NORMAL. MY LOOK AT THE SEA

OUR PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION
SYSTEMS ARE FLOODED OR HIGHWAY
THIRTY SEVEN WE GO ON AND ON

SENATE BILL TEN FORTY FOUR BY
SENATOR ALSO AN ACT RELATING TO
EMPLOYMENT CENTER DORADO THANK
YOU MADAM PRESIDENT SB TEN FORTY
FOUR IS A BILL THAT WILL ALLOW
WORKERS TO HAVE ACCESS TO THE
MOBILE PHONES OR OTHER
COMMUNICATION DEVICES AND BE
ALLOWED TO LEAVE THE WORKPLACE
FOR THEIR SAFETY. IN THE STATE
OF EMERGENCY OR EMERGENCY
CONDITION WITH CERTAIN
EXEMPTIONS WORKER SAFETY IS A
BASIC PROTECTION AFFORDED TO ALL
CALIFORNIANS UNFORTUNATELY THERE
BEEN CASES OF WORKERS REQUIRED
TO CONTINUE TO WORK DESPITE THE
IMMINENT THREAT OF A SEVERE
EMERGENCY THAT HAS INCLUDED
WORKERS EXPECTED TO WORK IN THE
FACE OF NATURAL DESIRES
DISASTERS. SUCH AS WILDFIRES AND
MUDSLIDES ALSO MAN MADE
EMERGENCY SITUATIONS INCLUDING
MASS SHOOTINGS AND TERROR EVENTS
THE CALIFORNIA NEW NORMAL
WILDFIRE SEASON HAS BECOME A
YEARLONG THREAT WITH NINE OF
THE LARGEST AND SEVEN OF THE
MOST DESTRUCTIVE FIRES IN STATE
HISTORY. I CONTINUE TO PICK
PRODUCE FIRES JUST A FEW MILES
FROM THE FIRE LINES INTO OUR
COMMUNITIES IN THE REGION. IN
THE REGION WERE IN DANGER.
DOMESTIC WORKERS LANDSCAPERS
WERE REQUIRED TO REPORT TO WORK
IN THE BACK YOU WAITED HILL
PROPERTIES AS THE THREAT OF THE
FIRE LOOMED AROUND THEM. TELLING
EMERGENCY PERSONNEL THAT THEY
COULD NOT LEAVE THE WORKPLACE
UNTIL THEIR JOB WAS FINISHED.
SIMILAR INCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED
IN AMAZON WAREHOUSES WITH THEIR
FORCED TO WORK DESPITE THREATS A
BUILDING FIRES. ONE EXAMPLE
ANOTHER EXAMPLE IS THE PUSH FOR
WORKERS TO CONTINUE IN THE MIDST
OF AN ACTIVE SHOOTING. THESE
INCIDENTS MAKE IT CLEAR THAT WE
NEED A NEW SET A NEW CLEAR
STANDARDS TO KEEP WORKERS SAFE
IN REAL TIME IN REAL TIME DURING
THESE EVENTS TEN FORTY FOUR
PROVIDES CLEAR REQUIREMENTS FOR
EMPLOYERS TO ALLOW WORKERS TO
ACCESS TO PHONES. AND OTHER
METHODS OF COMMUNICATIONS AS
WELL AS WORKERS BEING PERMITTED
TO LEAVE IF THEY MUST DO SO FOR
THEIR SAFETY OR THAT OF THEIR
CHILDREN. COMMITTED TO MAKING
THIS AN EFFECTIVE AND JUST
POLICY I HAVE BEEN ENGAGED
EXTENSIVELY WITH SPONSORS AND
OPPOSITION AND THEY'VE TAKEN
SEVERAL AMENDMENTS TO ACCOUNT
FOR LEGITIMATE CONCERNS.
EXEMPTIONS FROM THE RIGHT TO
LEAVE THE WORKPLACE INCLUDE
FIRST RESPONDERS PUBLIC SECTOR
WORKERS DEEMED DISASTER SERVICES
WORKERS HEALTHCARE WORKERS
EXPECTED TO ASSIST IN
EMERGENCIES AND ALL WORKERS
REQUIRED BY LAW TO REMAIN ON THE
PREMISES OR RENDER AID. WE'VE
NARROWED THE SCOPE OF THE BILL
AS ONE OF THE MANY REQUESTS MADE
BY THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
SPECIFYING THAT THIS BILL DOES
NOT APPLY TO HEALTH CARE
EMERGENCIES. INCORPORATING A
REASONABLE PERSON STANDARD AND
REQUIRING THE NOTICE TO
EMPLOYERS AS IS POSSIBLE. AND
FINALLY PROVIDE EMPLOYERS ARE
RIGHT TO CURE THE VIOLATION. AS
A RESULT OF ADOPTING THESE
AMENDMENTS SEVERAL OF
ORGANIZATIONS HAVE GONE NEUTRAL
ON THE LEGISLATION THE
CALIFORNIA HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION
CALIFORNIA FIRE CHIEFS AND THE
FIRE DISTRICTS ASSOCIATION.
ALTHOUGH THERE WAS NOT AN
OFFICIAL POSITION AMENDMENTS
ALSO ADDRESSED CONCERNS RAISED
FROM SCHOOL EMPLOYERS. I ALSO
WANT TO RAISE OTHER ISSUES-
WE'VE INCLUDED A BROAD EXEMPTION
COVERING PUBLIC SECTOR AND
WORKERS REQUIRED BY LAW TO
ASSIST IN EMERGENCIES- THE ALL-
THERE ARE SOME CLAIMS THAT ALL
LAWS RELATING TO HEALTH AND
SAFETY OR IN THE CARILLO CHAU
SECTION OF THE LABOR CODE NOT
SUBJECT TO PAPA WELL WE'RE NOT
WILLING TO MAKE THIS BILL
UNENFORCEABLE THERE IS A RIGHT
AND AN OPPORTUNITY TO CURE THE
VIOLATION. SB TEN FORTY FOUR
DOES NOT REQUIRE EMPLOYERS TO
SEND WORKERS HOME OR HALT THEIR
BUSINESS OPERATIONS IT DOES NOT
CONFLICT WITH DUPLICATE OR
OVERRIDE IN THE XISTING
REGULATIONS THIS SIMPLY IS A
BILL THAT SAYS PEOPLE WORKER
LEAVES THEIR JOB DURING ON THE
MERGING SEA OR A NATURAL
DISASTER BASED ON A REASONABLE
BELIEF OF DANGER OF DEATH OR
SERIOUS INJURY IF THEY REMAIN ON
THE PREMISES THE WORKER SHOULD
NOT BE FIRED OR DISCIPLINED. WE
ALSO REQUIRE THAT WORKERS HAVE
ACCESS TO PHONES DURING
EMERGENCIES. COLLEAGUES WE HAVE
CONTINUED TO WITNESS DEVASTATING
IMPACTS THAT EMERGENCIES AND
NATURAL DISASTERS CONTINUE TO
HAVE ON OUR COMMUNITIES
ESPECIALLY OUR MOST VULNERABLE
WORKERS. WE HAVE TO PROVIDE A
WAY TO. RESPOND IN A MINIMAL AN
ESSENTIAL REAL TIME. CLEAR
PROTECTIONS CLEAR RULES FOR BOTH
WORKERS AND EMPLOYERS BUT THE
OPPORTUNITY KEEP THEIR
THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILY
SAFE. AND FINALLY WE HAVE AGREED
TO INCLUDE UNMANNED MEANT THAT
WOULD COVER AN EXAM TO EMPLOYEES
OF NURSING HOMES AND CERTAIN
PRIVATE FIREFIGHTERS. COLLEAGUES
ASK FOR YOUR I. BOATS. THANK YOU
CENTER DRAWS A SENATOR MEN.
THANK YOU MR PRESIDENT I WANT TO
APPLAUD MY COLLEAGUES FROM LOS
ANGELES ARE PROPOSING THIS BILL
EIGHT I THINK IT'S AN IMPORTANT
GOAL HERE TO MAKE SURE THAT
WORKERS ARE SAFE. I DID HAVE
SOME CONCERNS ON THIS BILL CAME
UP AND UNITE TALK ABOUT THEM BUT
I WAS VERY PLEASED TO SEE THAT
YOU WORK WITH ALL STAKEHOLDERS
INCLUDING OPPOSITION ON'T AND
SOME BUSINESS GROUPS TO TRY TO
MAKE SURE THAT YOUR ADDRESS SOME
OF THE REGIONAL CONCERNS- WE
DON'T WANNA MAKE A LOOPHOLE HERE
THAT JUST ALLOWS- YOU KNOW- IT
WORKERS TO BE USES SYSTEM WE
WANT TO MAKE SURE WORKERS ARE
SAFE SUCH. AS REALLY
APPRECIATIVE
YOU TOOK MANAGEMENT AT MACY'S
THE REASONABLE PERSON STANDARD
BY RATHER THAN A SUBJECT IF YOU
WHICH I THINK COULD BE FRAUGHT
WITH ABUSE I DON'T ENCOURAGE YOU
TO KEEP WORKING WITH
STAKEHOLDERS AS THIS BILL GOES
THROUGH THE ASSEMBLY TO TRY TO
MAKE SURE THAT IT'S A TIGHT
NARROWLY DRAFTED BILL- I DO.
APPRECIATE THE GOALS OF THIS BUT
WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE
WE'RE NOT MAKING IT HARDER FOR
BUSINESSES TO SUCCEED IN THE
STATE I WITH THAT I WOULD
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR MY
COLLEAGUES TO SUPPORT THIS BILL
THANK YOU SIR MEN SENATOR LEYVA
. YOU MISTER PRESS. MEMBERS IRA
. IN STRONG SUPPORT OF THIS BILL
IN THE MIDDLE OF AN EMERGENCY IT
IS CRITICAL THAT WORKERS ARE
ABLE TO USE A CELL PHONE OR EVEN
LEAVE WORK. TO HELP THEMSELVES.
IS UNCONSCIONABLE THAT IN THE
MIDDLE OF A WILDFIRE A FLOOD OR
EVEN A SHOOTING. WORKERS WOULD
BE PREVENTED FROM DOING
SOMETHING. AS COMMON SENSE AS
USING A COMMUNICATION DEVICE. OR
EVEN LEAVE IF NEEDED. BUT THIS
BILL ISN'T JUST ABOUT
COMMONSENSE. IT ALSO SPEAKS TO
THE HEART OF BASIC HUMAN
DECENCY. WHICH I'M VERY PROUD TO
SUPPORT. IN SB TEN FORTY FOUR.
AS A PROUD CO AUTHOR I
APPRECIATE THE AUTHOR'S WORK. ON
THIS IMPORTANT BILL. THAT WILL
HELP KEEP CALIFORNIA WORKERS AND
THEIR FAMILIES SAFE. AND
ADVANCES POLICY THAT PRIORITIZES
THE HEALTH AND SAFETY. OF OUR
RESIDENTS ACROSS OUR STATE. I
LOOK FORWARD TO SUPPORTING THE
BILL TODAY AND I'M HOPEFUL THAT
MY COLLEAGUES. ON THE RED CARPET
WILL ALSO JOIN ME IN SUPPORTING
SB TEN. Q. SENATOR MELENDEZ YEAH. THANK YOU MR PRESIDENT- I HAVE
A QUESTION OF THE AUTHOR IF I
MAY CENTER DRAWS A WOULD YOU
LIKE TO TAKE A QUESTION YES
CENTER MELINDA'S THANK YOU
THROUGH THE CHAIR- THE BILL
SPECIFIES. THAT EMPLOYER CAN'T
TAKE AN ADVERSE REACTION. I'M
AGAINST PLEASE REFUSE TO COME TO
OR REMAIN AT WORK BECAUSE THEY
FEEL UNSAFE DURING A STATE OR
CONDITION OF EMERGENCY. SO THAT
COULD INCLUDE WILDFIRES ARE
RIGHT ABOUT THE THINGS THAT CAN
ALSO I'M ASSUMING INCLUDE THE
CURRENT STATE OF EMERGENCY THAT
WE WERE IN. SO I'M WONDERING HOW
THIS WOULD APPLY TO. THE DAY TO
DAY RIGHT NOW SINCE WE ARE STILL
IN A STATE OF EMERGENCY CNTER
DRAWS A WOULD YOU LIKE TO
CLARIFY. YES THANK- AND THANK
YOU FOR THE FOR THE QUESTION
THIS IS- THE WAY WE'VE ADDRESS
THIS IS TO SHOW THAT THERE HAS
TO BE AN EMERGENCY IN REAL TIME.
AND EMERGENCY FACING THAT WORKER
AT THE TIME NOT SOMETHING THAT
PASSED NOT SOMETHING THAT COULD
BE IN THE FUTURE WHAT ARE THEY
THEY FACED WITH IMMINENT DANGER
OF A FACE WITH LIFE AND DEATH
THEY OR A FAMILY MEMBER AND
THAT'S WHAT MAKES THE
DISTINCTION IT IS NOT JUST A
GENERAL- ON EMERGENCY. IT'S VERY
SPECIFIC TO THEM AND THEIR WELL
BEING AND THEIR SAFETY. CENTER
MELENDEZ AM THANK YOU WELL- I
GUESS ONE ADDITIONAL QUESTION IF
I MAY WOULD BE IF SHE WOULD
ACCEPT THE QUESTION A- TENER
DRAWS A WOULD YOU ACCEPT ONE
MORE CLARIFYING QUESTIONS. YES
THANK YOU I'M- IS THERE A
DEFINITION WITHIN THE BILL THAT
YOU KNOW EXPLAINS WHAT- IN A
REASONABLE FIERER REASONABLE
HARM MIGHT BE. SENATE RAZA YES.
YES IT IS THE A REASONABLE
PERSON STANDARD THIS IS ALSO
SOMETHING THAT WE TOOK OFF FROM
THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE THE
REASONABLE PERSON STANDARD WHAT
WOULD A REASONABLE PERSON DO IN
THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES BECAUSE IN
FACT IF A WORKER WALKS OUT
SAYING I'M AN M. L. I'M UNDER.
IMMINENT HARM I AM IN THE DANGER
OF SERIOUS BODILY HARM THEY HAVE
TO BE ABLE TO PROVE THAT BECAUSE
IF THE EMPLOYER DECIDES TO FIRE
THEM FOR WALKING OFF THEY HAVE
TO BE ABLE TO SAY LOOK YOU ARE
YOU ARE YOU ANYBODY A REASONABLE
PERSON WOULD HAVE DONE THE SAME
THING THIS IS NOT- THIS IS NOT
SOMETHING THAT YOU SHOULD TAKE
LIGHTLY THIS IS SOMETHING THAT'S
VERY SERIOUS YOU'RE GOING TO
HAVE TO PROVE. THAT YOU WERE
UNDER THOSE CONDITIONS UNDER
THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES OR ELSE THE
EMPLOYER WILL. NOT HAVE A REASON
TO TAKE THEM BACK. OKAY THANK
YOU THEN- I DON'T HAVE ANY
FURTHER QUESTIONS JUST SOME
COMMENTS- I STILL HAVE SOME
CONCERNS ABOUT HOW THIS WOULD
PLAY OUT- YOU KNOW IT'S A RATHER
LITIGIOUS SOCIETY THAT WE DO
LIVE IN HERE AND I DO HAVE GREAT
CONCERN THAT THERE WILL BE SOME
FOLKS WHO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS
AM I RECOGNIZE THAT'S NOT YOUR
INTENT- BUT I THINK IT WOULD BE
NAIVE OF US TO ASSUME THAT NO
ONE WOULD TRY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE
OF THIS. GIVEN THE FACT THAT WE
ARE IS STILL IN A DECLARED STATE
OF EMERGENCY ONE CAN IMAGINE A
SITUATION WHERE AN EMPLOYEE
PERHAPS- HE WORKS AT A BUSY MALL
OR SOME SORT OF TRANSPORTATION
HOWEVER THERE ARE MANY MANY
PEOPLE WHO ARE COMING AND GOING
COULD SAY- YOU KNOW I. I HEARD
THAT THERE WAS HAVE. YOU KNOW A
COPAY THE OUTBREAK IN THIS
GENERAL NEIGHBORHOOD AREA AND I
DON'T FEEL SAFE SO I'M NOT GOING
TO COME TO WORK FOR THE NEXT.
TWO DAYS OR THREE DAYS OR
WHATEVER- I THINK THAT'S-
REASONABLE TO ASSUME THAT THAT
COULD HAPPEN WHICH PUTS
EMPLOYERS IN A VERY PRECARIOUS
POSITION BECAUSE THE BURDEN IS
NOW ON THE EMPLOYER TO PROVE.
THAT THAT THEY WEREN'T IN DANGER
I'M NOT SURE HOW THEY COULD
POSSIBLY- PROVED THAT SO- THANK
YOU THOUGH FOR THE
CLARIFICATION- AND I.
RESPECTFULLY I'M GOING TO HAVE
TO OPPOSE THIS BILL THANK YOU
THANK YOU CENTER MELENDEZ
SENATOR ROBERT. I THANK YOU MR
PRESIDENT AND JUST FOLLOWING ON-
WITH THE QUESTION TO THE AUTHOR
FOLLOWING ON FROM MY COLLEAGUE
FROM LAKE ELSINORE- CENTER DRAWS
A WOULD YOU ACCEPT THE QUESTION.
YES THANK YOU SO RUMORED- IF I
UNDERSTAND CORRECTLY THERE ARE
TWO DIFFERENT STANDARDS IN THE
LAW ONE IS A SUBJECTIVE STANDARD
SUBJECT TO STANDARD BEING
WHETHER SOMEONE FOR EXAMPLE
FEARS THAT COVE IT. MAY IMPACT
THEM- SORT OF IN A GENERAL WAY
BECAUSE COVERT MAY EXIST IN
GENERAL SOCIETY. AND SO THUS
THEY DECIDE NOT TO COME TO WORK
BECAUSE THEY HAVE THIS
GENERALIZED FEAR THAT SOME
ALCOVE IT MAY. IMPACT THEM. THEY
MAY TRULY BELIEVE IT BUT
SUBJECTIVELY AND THEN THERE'S
THE OBJECT OF STANDARD OBJECT OF
STANDARDS WHETHER RESULT PERSON
NOT NOT THE INDIVIDUAL BUT A
REASONABLE PERSON. USING THAT
STANDARD IN LAW THE OBJECTIVE
STANDARD IN LAW WITH A
REASONABLE PERSON. IS DETERMINED
BY THE FINDER OF FACT FOR
EXAMPLE JURY OR A JUDGE. WOULD
BELIEVE THAT THERE WAS A
OBJECTIVELY A REAL FEAR THAT
THAT THEY WOULD BE IN- IN IN
FEAR OF THEIR PERSONAL SAFETY.
OF IN WHICH STANDARD IS USED IN
THIS BILL THIS BILL UP WE ARE
ADOPTING THE REASONABLE PERSON
STANDARD THE- AS TO WHAT WOULD
THE REASONABLE OBJECTIVELY
SPEAKING PERSON DO. IN THAT
SITUATION RT. OBJECTIVES THE
UNIT IS DETERMINED BY THE FINDER
OF FACT NOT SUBJECTIVE IS
DETERMINED BY THE INDIVIDUAL
RIGHTS RIGHT ALL RIGHT THANK YOU
FOR THE QUESTION THANK YOU SERRA
BURKE CENTER GLAZER. HELLO MR
PRESIDENT MEMBERS I WAS HOPING
THAT THE- THE AUTHOR WOULD SPEAK
TO THE PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL
ACT THAT SEEMS TO BE A PROVISION
OF THE BILL. AND WHY THAT'S
NECESSARY- GIVEN THE VARIOUS
STATE. ANOTHER A HEALTH AND
SAFETY AGENCIES THAT CAN
PROPERLY ENFORCE. CENTER GLAZER
ARE YOU ASKING A QUESTION OR
ANSWER IN THE AUTHOR TO RESPOND
IN HER COTHES I'M ASKING THE
AUTHOR QUESTION CENTER DRAWS A
WOULD YOU ACCEPT THAT AS A
QUESTION. YES THANK YOU. THE
RIGHT TO CURE IS SOMETHING
THAT'S IN THE LABOR CODE AND
WERE ADOPTING THE SAME. THE SAME
PROVISION. OF AND THERE'S A
WHOLE PROCESS THAT THE EMPLOYEE
MUST FILE THE NOTICE OF THE
VIOLATION IN OTHER WORDS IF
SOMEBODY GETS FIRED. AND WE
CONSIDER THAT A VIOLATION OF
THIS OF THIS LAW IF IT WERE TO
BECOME LAW- A NOTICE OF
VIOLATION TO THE LABOR AGENCY.
NOTICE TO THE EMPLOYER THE
EMPLOYER RESPONDS- THAT HAS A AN
OPPORTUNITY TO CURE THE
VIOLATION I MEAN THERE'S A WHOLE
VERY SPECIFIC STEP BY STEP. OF
PROCESS THAT IS DONE- THROUGH
THE LABOR CODE RIGHT NOW. OKAY
THE ON MY OWN TIME THEN I. I
DON'T THINK THAT THE YOU KNOW.
THE PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACT
AND WHEN THOSE THOSE COME
THROUGH VARIOUS BILS THAT THAT
THAT WE HAVE HEARD I'VE I'VE
BEEN OPPOSED TO THOSE BECAUSE
THEY SEEM TO BE LITIGATION
TRAPS- FOR EMPLOYERS AND FOR
OTHERS WHERE. WE HAVE
PUBLICATIONS USED IF SOMEONE IS
INVOLVED THE LAW CORRECTLY TO
ENFORCE BUT WHEN YOU PUT THESE
WHAT ARE FOR TO HIS PAGO.
OPTIONS IN LEGISLATION LIKE HIS
YOU CREATE A WHOLE- CAN OF
POTENTIAL LITIGATION THAT I
THINK. CREATES A LOT OF OUR
ABILITY- FOR EMPLOYERS AND
OTHERS. I CERTAINLY SUPPORT THE
GOALS THAT THE- THE AUTHOR HAS
PUT FORWARD IN THIS BILL. BUT I
FEEL IT THAT THAT'S A- A POISON
PILL FOR SO MANY INCLUDING THIS
ONE AND SO THAT'S WHY. I'M FORTY
NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO SUPPORT IT
TODAY. THANK YOU SENATOR GLAZERS
SENATOR GROW. THANK YOU MR
PRESIDENT- I APPRECIATE MY
COLLEAGUES FROM ORINDA- BRINGING
UP THE SITUATION WE HAVE WITH
POCKETS. AND AM I GOING TO
CORRECT THE RECORD THAT. THAT
WAS JUST RESPONDED TO IN THE
QUESTION SO PARTISAN LABOR CODE
IT IS AND PRIVATE ATTORNEY
GENERAL ACT SIGNED UNDER DAVIS
ADMINISTRATION. BUT AND THERE IS
NO CURE. BECAUSE THERE IS A
PENALTY PHASE AND THE LIABILITY
PHASE. SO BASICALLY THE JUDGE
SAYS YOU HAVE NO LIABILITY THE
BUILDING WAS ON FIRE HE TOLD THE
EMPLOYEES TO GO HOME. YOU PAID
THEM FOR THE DAY THEY CAME BACK.
THERE IS NO ISSUE BUT SOMEBODY
GOES OH MY GOD I DIDN'T GET THE
MESSAGE AND- I DIDN'T KNOW I
COULD COME BACK IN SO THEY FILE
A LAWSUIT THERE'S NO LIABILITY
BECAUSE THERE WAS NO HARM. KIND
LIKE THE PAYCHECK ISSUE THEY
WERE PROTECTION TO DO SIX HAS
NINE VIOLATIONS ON A PAYCHECK
STUB IN A PRODUCT. THAT YOU HAVE
TO ADHERE TO IT HAS TO BE
SPECIFIC. SO IF YOU HAVE. LIKE
TO SEE THE LAST FOUR DIGITS OF A
SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER IN YOUR
PLACE FOR IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
YOU PUT THAT ON THERE. THAT
DOESN'T HURT THE EMPLOYEE. AND
THERE'S NO PENALTY UNDER THE
LIABILITY FIFTIES OF THE
LITIGATION BUT UNDER THE PENALTY
PHASE IS TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS A
PAY PERIOD PER EMPLOYEE PER
PERSON. PER PAYCHECK ISSUE GOING
BACK FOUR YEARS FOR A OF A
VIOLATION OF IT IS AND ONE YEAR
FOR VIOLATIONS. OF WAGE
STATEMENT ERRORS OR FOUR
THOUSAND DOLLARS WHICHEVER IS
GREATER. SO THAT STILL STANDS
AND IS NOT MITIGATED BY A JUDGE.
SO IF THERE IS A PAGA CLAIM
BROUGHT UNDER THIS PARTICULAR
PIECE OF LEGISLATION. THERE WILL
BE LIGHT BILITY AND THE
LIABILITY COULD BE ZERO. BUT
UNDER THE LIABILITY PHASE BUT
UNDER THE PENALTY PHASE THAT HAS
NOT BEN ADDRESSED BY THIS
LEGISLATOR THERE'S LEGISLATURE
THEY'RE STILL LIKE IN OF THE
PHASE. THE SECOND PHASE OF THE
LITIGATION THAT REQUIRES A
PENALTY TO BE PAID. TO THE TRIAL
ATTORNEYS. AND FOR THAT TWO
HUNDRED DOLLARS PER PAY PERIOD
PER PAYCHECK GOING BACK FOR
YEARS. OR IN THIS CASE IT WOULD
BE FOUR YEARS BECAUSE IT WOULD
BE AWAITING OUR- FOR. SILICEOUS
AN EARLY MISTER REST PERIOD OR
THEN THEY DIDN'T GET PAID FOR AN
EIGHT HOUR PERIOD EVEN IF THEY
CURED IT AND PAID THEM AND
GIVING THEM AN ADDITIONAL WAGES
A DAY'S WAGES BECAUSE THAT'S
WHAT REQUIRED BY THE LABOR CODE
TO CORRECT EIGHT MISSED PAY OF
AN EMPLOYEE'S PAYCHECK YOU WOULD
STILL FACE THE PENALTIES BY THE
MULTIPLE NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES
THAT YOU HAVE SO- THE PAGO
POISON PILL IN THIS BILL IS HUGE
AND- WE CUT- EMPLOYERS ARE JUST
STARTING TO COME OUT OF RECOVERY
BECAUSE OF CODED. THEY WERE SHUT
DOWN THE IDA AND BY BY SO MANY
DIFFERENT ROLES AT SO MANY
DIFFERENT TIMES AND I THINK WE
SHOULD JUST GIVE HIM SOME SPACE
TO TRY TO RECOVER FROM COBURN
AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR NOVA
. THANK YOU SIR GROVE CENTER
CORTESE. THANK YOU MR PRESIDENT-
I DO RISE IN SUPPORT OF THIS
BILL BUT I WANTED TO ASK
CLARIFYING QUESTION BECAUSE I'VE
BEEN- KIND OF QATAR CONFUSED BY
SOME OF THE QUESTIONS. ASKED
ACCORDING TO THE BILL IN OUR
ZERO ZERO WOULD YOU TAKE ANOTHER
QUESTION THE CANCER THANK YOU
SENATOR CORTESE ARE RECOGNIZED
FOR QUESTION TO THE AUTHOR.
ACCORDING TO THE BILL ENOSIS
BEFORE US TODAY- IT SAYS THAT
THIS BILL DEFINES FOR PURPOSES
OF THE BILL A STATE OF EMERGENCY
TO ME IN THE EXISTENCE OF ANY OF
THE FOLLOWING. THAT IS DECLARED
AFTER ENACTMENT OF THIS BILL- IS
IN THE COUNTY WERE WORKER LIVES
OR WORKS. IS NOT A HEALTH
PANDEMIC. IMPOSES AN IMMINENT
AND ONGOING RISK OF HARM TO THE
WORKER. SO TO ME THAT YOU
AMENDED OUT COALBED FOR WHOLE
CONDEMNING FROM THE BILL. SO
THAT THESE ISSUES ABOUT WHETHER
OR NOT A PERSON COULD. TODAY
TOMORROW AFTERNOON ACTON OF THIS
BILL. CLAIM CODE ED- AS AN
EMERGENCY WOULD BE MOVED IS THAT
CORRECT YES THAT'S CORRECT OKAY
THANK YOU AND THEN. LATER IN THE
IN THE BILL ANALYSIS SPEAKS TO
PAGA. AND IT DOESN'T-
DISCRIMINATE BETWEEN THE
LIABILITY PHASE OR PENALTY PHASE
IT SIMPLY SAYS. THAT UNDER THE
PAGA. ACT BUT THERE IS A RIGHT
TO CURE. READ FULL STOP IS IT IS
THAT. YOU'RE REALLY LAZY ARE YOU
ASKING ADDITIONAL QUESTION I AM
I AM MISTER PRESIDENT THANK YOU
CENTER CORTESE THROUGH THE CHAIR
CENTER DRAWS- WOULD YOU ACCEPT
THAT AS A QUESTION. YES MISSING
ISN'T. YES YES THAT IS CORRECT
THANK YOU THANK YOU MR PRESIDENT
I WOULD SUPPORT HIGH VOTE. THANK
YOU CENTER CORTESE. SENATOR
CABALLERO. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
MR- PRESIDENT- SO THIS THIS- I
REALLY APPRECIATE WHAT YOU'RE
YOU'RE YOU'RE TRYING TO DO IN
THIS BILL AND I GUESS PART OF
THAT I'M I'M A LITTLE BIT
BOTHERED BY POCKET JUST BECAUSE-
I JUST THINK IT IT STARTS
SETTING UP A SYSTEM APART FROM.
OUR OWN REGULATORY FRAMEWORK-
BUT I BET THAT A SECOND ISSUE
CAME UP AS I WAS THINKING
THROUGH THIS IS THAT MANY TIMES
THAT WE DO IS WE TELL EMPLOYERS-
HERE THE RULES. AND THEN THE
STATE AGENCIES RIGHT UP- A ONE
SHEET PAPER SAYING THIS IS HOW
YOU FOLLOW THE ROLE. AND AND
EMPLOYERS RELY ON THAT ADVICE
WHEN THEY'RE- MAKING DECISIONS
IN ABOUT THEIR EMPLOYMENT
SITUATION. AND IN THE PAST. IF
YOU WERE AN EMPLOYER THAT
FOLLOWED STATE. ADVISEMENT IF IT
WAS FOUND OR IF THE COURT
DETERMINED THAT THAT ADVISEMENT
WAS IT IN ERROR AND YOU FOLLOWED
AS AN EMPLOYER YOU CAN STILL PAY
HAVE TO PAY PENALTIES AND
SIGNIFICANT- FIND OUT FOR THAT
AND FUNDAMENTALLY TO ME THAT
JUST SEEMS NOT VERY FAIR- IF
WE'RE GOING TO TELL PEOPLE HOW
THEY CAN AVOID VIOLATING THE LAW
THEN THEN TO ME WE OUGHT TO HAVE
A RULE THAT SAYS IF YOU FOLLOW
WHAT THE STATE SAID TO DO. IT
WAS FOUND TO BE WRONG THEN YOU
SHOULDN'T BE PENALTIES YOU KNOW
SLAP UPSIDE THE FACE TO THE
STATE'S LAB INSIDE THE FACE TO
THE EMPLOYER- LET'S GET IT RIGHT
HERE'S THE RIGHT ADVICE I'M SO
I'M WONDERING IF AN EMPLOYER IS
FILE FOLLOWING CAL OSHA
ADVISEMENT- IT IS THAT A- IS
THAT A- IS THAT A PART. OF
PROTECTION. FROM FOR THE
EMPLOYER- IN THIS KIND OF A
SITUATION. IN OTHER WORDS CAN
THE EMPLOYER RELY ON CAL OR
OSHA. REGULATIONS AND IT BUYS
MEANT INFORMATION- IN IN
DETERMINING WHETHER THAT WHAT
THE EMPLOYER DID WAS REASONABLE
IN THIS SITUATION BECAUSE YOU
YOU WANT TO DO IT RIGHT TO CARE
AND THAT'S GREAT SO WE TELL THE
EMPLOYER. YEAH YOU FOLLOW THE
ADVISEMENT AND YOU YOU WERE YOU
WERE WRONG- WE WERE WRONG TO.
BUT IT DOES DOES THAT SHE'LL BE
EMPLOYER IT IS MIGHT MY QUESTION
CENTER CARRIER ARE YOU ASKING A
QUESTION YES IT IS A QUESTION OR
OR WOULD YOU PREFER FOR TO
RESPOND TO THAT AND HER CLOTHES.
HOWEVER SHE'D LIKE TO DO IT I'M
I'M I'M OKAY I JUST THAT FOR MY
OWN SAKE IN TERMS OF TRYING TO
FIGURE OUT. THANK YOU WHAT I
THINK YOU HAVE A DID CENTERS ARE
COVERED- DO YOU HAVE ADDITIONAL
COMMENTS TO MAKE. NO THAT'S MY
QUESTION THANK YOU CENTER
COLORADO'S. SENATE RAZA SINGH NO
OTHER MICROPHONES- YOU MAY
CLOSE. THANK YOU VERY MUCH MR
PRESIDENT- AND PARTIALLY IN IN
RESPONSE TO THE CENTER OF THIS
QUESTION. THIS BILL IS NOT ABOUT
ROUTINE SAFETY VIOLATIONS. THIS
IS CAL. AS ITS REGULATIONS ON
NUMEROUS AS YOU MENTIONED AS THE
SENATOR MENTIONED OF WORKSITE
ISSUES. THERE'S A PROCESS WHERE
WORKERS CAN REPORT VIOLATIONS TO
CAL OSHA. CAL OSHA HAS MONTHS TO
INVESTIGATE AND DETERMINE IF
THERE WAS A VIOLATION. THIS BILL
IS NOT ABOUT ROUTINE SAFETY
VIOLATIONS. IT IS ABOUT HOW WE
PROTECT WORKERS. AS EXTREME
WEATHER EVENTS HAPPEN AND OTHER
ISSUES OTHER- CONDITIONS
THREATEN THE WORKSITE. IT'S NOT
ABOUT OVERRIDING CALLOW SURE
DUPLICATING A REGULATIONS IT
SIMPLY SAYS THAT IF THERE IS AN
EMERGENCY. AND THE WORKER
REASONABLY BELIEVES THEIR LIFE
IS IN DANGER IN JEOPARDY. THEY
CAN LEAVE WITHOUT THE FEAR OF
RETALIATION AND LOSING THEIR
JOBS. THAT IS THE FUNDAMENTAL
GOAL OF THIS. LEGISLATION AND I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR VOTE.

YOU MADAM PRESIDENT MEMBERS I
RISE TO PRESENT S. B. TEN. IN
TWENTY THIRTEEN THE LEGISLATURE
PASSED IN THE GOVERNOR SIGNED SB
SEVEN FORTY THREE BY SENATOR
STEINBERG THAT BILL ESTABLISHED
THE SPECIAL ADMINISTRATIVE AND
JUDICIAL REVIEW PROCESS UNDER
SYKORA FOR THE CITY OF
SACRAMENTO TO STREAMLINE THE
DEVELOPMENT AND CONSTRUCTION. OF
THE GOLDEN ONE CENTER IN
DOWNTOWN NOW EVERYBODY'S BEEN TO
THE GOLDEN ONE CENTER IN
DOWNTOWN AND YOU KNOW. THAT IF
THAT CENTER HAD BEEN BUILT UNDER
THE SEQUEL GUIDELINES IN EFFECT
AT THAT TIME THAT IT COULD NEVER
HAVE BEEN BUILT WHY BECAUSE
THERE'S NO WAY THAT YOU COULD
HAVE MITIGATED THE TRAFFIC
IMPACTS. PUTTING A BIG CENTER
LIKE THAT. YEAH B. TO WHICH
IMPROVE EVERY SINGLE
INTERSECTION THE PEOPLE WOULD
DRIVE INTO TOWN ON AND THAT
WOULD HAVE MEANT CREATING NEW
LANES AND NEW TURN LANES AND
NEWS STOPLIGHTS SO IS IMPERATIVE
IF YOU WERE GONNA DO INFILL
CONSTRUCTION THIS MAGNITUDE THAT
YOU CHANGE THE MEASUREMENT TOOL
THAT YOU CHANGE HOW YOU EVALUATE
AND COMPLY WITH SEEK WHAT. SO IT
WOULD BECAUSE OF SB SEVEN FORTY
THREE- THAT THE GOVERNOR'S
OFFICE OF PLANNING AND RESEARCH
OPR WITH CAST TO DEVELOP. GUIDE
IS TO REPLACE. YEAH POST TO
MEASURE THE TRANSPORTATION
IMPACT AND- WHAT THEY DID IS
THEY CAME UP WITH A NEW STANDARD
AND THAT STANDARD BASICALLY IT
WAS CALLED VEHICLE MILES
TRAVELED- OPR DEVISED THE
METHODOLOGY TO SATISFY SEEK
WEBER INFILL PROJECTS IN TRANSIT
PRIORITY AREAS I MEAN TO SAY
THAT AGAIN BECAUSE THIS IS
IMPORTANT. OPR DEVELOPED AT
ANOTHER METHODOLOGY TO SATISFY
SYKORA FOR INFILL PROJECTS IN
TRANSIT PRIORITY AREAS AND THAT
WAS CALLED VEHICLE MILES
TRAVELED NOW I DON'T KNOW ABOUT
YOU BUT I DON'T HAVE IN MY
DISTRICT I DO NOT HAVE TRANSIT
PRIORITY AREAS TRANSIT PRIORITY
AREAS ARE DOING FINE WITH A-
INSPUR. SYSTEM THAT STOPS WITHIN
A HALF MILE EVERY FIFTEEN
MINUTES SO IN RURAL CALIFORNIA
YOU DON'T HAVE THESE. TRANSIT
PRIORITY AREAS AND IN MANY OF
OUR NON URBANIZED COMMUNITIES IN
OTHER WORDS THE SUBURBS YOU
KNOW. PLEASE THESE XIN STOPS-
I'VE BEEN ADVOCATING IN ARGUING
FOR YEARS THAT WE OUGHT TO
IMPROVE OUR OUR TRANSIT OPTIONS
AND PROVIDE AN ALTERNATIVE. SO
THAT THE RURAL COMMUNITIES AND
THE SUBURBS ARE CONNECTED BUT WE
HAVEN'T GOTTEN THERE WE JUST
DON'T HAVE THE INFRASTRUCTURE.
VMT IS A MEASURE HOW MANY
VEHICLE TRIPS ARE JUST THEIR
PROSPECT. AND WHAT HAPPENED IS
THAT- THAT IN TWENTY TWENTY.
TWENTY TWENTY OPR DECIDED THAT
WORK WE WERE GOING TO SCRAP THE
OLD METHOD OF ANALYZING
TRANSPORTATION AND WE WOULD USE
VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED INSTEAD
FOR ALL. SO WHERE DID TWENTY
TWENTY TWO VMT NOW HAS TO BE
UTILIZED AS PART OF A SECRET
ANALYSIS TO ACCOUNT FOR THE
CONSTRUCTION OF ANY NEW
DEVELOPMENT REGARDLESS OF WHERE
IT IS LOCATED AND SO AS WE DEAL
WITH OUR HOUSING CRISIS. CITIES
AND COUNTIES ARE NOW HAVING TO
USE V. M. T. TO DETERMINE HOW
THEY'RE GOING TO MITIGATE THE
IMPACTS OF THOSE RESIDENTS THAT
ARE. THAT ARE LIVING IN THEIR
COMMUNITIES SO FOR PROJECTS WITH
IBM TO THE DEVELOPMENT DEVELOPED
DEVELOPER MAY BE ASSISTED VMT
MITIGATION FEE ARE BE REQUIRED
TO BUILD IN. TO BUILD AN
AMENITIES OR DESIGN FEATURES
THAT REDUCE THE ANTI BMT SUCH AS
IMPROVING OR INCREASING ACCESS
TO TRANSIT THE GREAT GOAL ADDING
BICYCLE PARKING PROVIDING RIDE
SHARING OP OPTIONS ARE PROVIDING
TRANSIT PASSES SO MUCH YOU TO
THINK ABOUT IT IN RURAL
COMMUNITIES TO PROVIDE TRANSIT
PASSES WHEN THERE'S A TRANSIT
DOESN'T EXIST OR TWO PER. TIONS
BIGELOW OR HOW TO TAKE THEIR
KIDS TO SCHOOL IT'S JUST NOT
IT'S NOT PRACTICAL IT'S NOT
ACTUALLY EASY TO DO OR TO
INCREASE ACCESS TO TRANSIT- OR
TO MAKE IMPROVEMENTS LIKE
BICYCLE LANES SO MY POINT ABOUT
ALL OF THIS MEMBERS IS THAT- VMT
BECOMES A BARRIER TO THE
DEVELOPMENT THE BUILDING AND
DEVELOPMENT OF AFFORDABLE
HOUSING AND IT IT IT IT IT AND
MANY OF OUR COMMUNITIES IN THE
CITY OF FRESNO THEY'RE LOOKING
AT THE EMPTY AND THEIR BATTLE
ICED THE SITUATION AND IT'S
GOING TO COST THOUSANDS OF
DOLLARS. SOME OF. THEM TO COMPLY
WITH THIS NEW SEQUEL
REQUIREMENT. AND TO HIGHLIGHT
HOW EXTREME IMPLEMENTING VMT CAN
BE. A PROPOSED BMT MITIGATION
FEE RANGE FROM FIFTY THOUSAND
DOLLARS PER UNIT TO TWO MILLION
DOLLARS. IN A RECENT HOUSING
FOR. SAN DIEGO COUNTY AND SO
THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT FACE
CONSIDERABLE UPPER OPPOSITION
HASN'T BEEN IMPROVED BUT IT'S A
CLEAR EXAMPLE. OF THE
CONSEQUENCES OF WHAT WE MAY SEE
INTO THE FUTURE CALIFORNIA'S
HOUSING CRISIS IS NOT ONLY A
SUPPLY ISSUE BUT IT'S AN
AFFORDABILITY ISSUE. AS THE
MEDIAN HOME PRICE IN THE STATE
CONTINUES TO SOAR MANY FAMILIES
ARE FORCED TO BUY. BURBS RURAL.
STATE DEFINED HOUSING THAT FITS
THEIR BUDGET WE'RE SEEING THIS
IN IN MY DISTRICT WHERE PEOPLE
ARE COMING FROM- BAY AREA CITIES
THAT HAVE BECOME BECOME VERY
UNAFFORDABLE AND NOW ARE MOVING
INTO THE- CENTRAL VALLEY AND
INTO THE CENTRAL COAST AREA. AND
THE ABILITY FOR THEM TO AFFORD A
HOUSE BECOMES EVEN MORE
DIFFICULT WITH BMT- SO WE'RE
LAYING THIS V. M. T. ON TOP OF
AN INEQUALITY SYSTEM OF HOUSING-
IN OUR COMMUNITIES. VMT WILL
DISCOURAGE THE MUCH NEEDED
HOUSING AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
. AND CITY. WHY FIVE THIS BILL
AMENDMENTS TAKEN COMMITTEE
SIGNIFICANTLY CHANGE THE BILL
AND INSTEAD OF LIMITING THE
EMPTIES APPLICATION WHICH IS WAS
THE ORIGINAL INTENT OF THE BILL
TO TRANSIT PRIORITY AREAS THE
BILL PASSED THE GOVERNOR'S
OFFICE OF PLANNING AND RESEARCH
WITH CONDUCTING A STUDY OF THE
IMPLEMENTATION AND IMPACT TO BE
A VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED. IN
ADDITION IT CREATES A GRANT
PROGRAM TO FACILITATE THE
IMPLEMENTATION THE BNT BY LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS TO CONDUCT THEIR
OWN REGIONAL ANALYSIS AND
DETERMINE IF THERE'S OTHER
MEASURES THAT THEY CAN USE- TWO
METERS SEQUEL OBLIGATION DESPITE
THE FACT THAT THEY'RE UNDER
RESOURCE SO- I WANTED TO MAKE
SURE TO THE SENATORS FROM
RIVERSIDE IN SANTA MONICA
FURTHER COLLABORATE ON THIS
ISSUE. TO CONTINUING THE DISK.
AND I WANT TO WORK TO CONTINUE
TO DISCUSS THIS WITH THE
STAKEHOLDERS BECAUSE THE BOTTOM
LINE IS THAT- THAT. DMT IS- IS
REALLY KILLING THE HOUSING
DEVELOPMENT IN MY COMMUNITY AND
I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR AYE
VOTE. THANK YOU SENATOR
CABALLERO DISCUSSION AND DEBATE
SENATOR ROTH. THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT I APOLOGIZE I REALIZE
THIS IS A SUPPORT SUPPORT BILL
AND I'M USUALLY THE ONE SIT
AROUND QUESTIONS FOR THE SIZING
FOLKS FOR TALKING TOO MUCH BUT
THE- THIS IS A PARTICULARLY
IMPORTANT ISSUE TO THOSE OF US
IN INLAND CALIFORNIA I WANT TO
THANK THE AUTHOR FOR PURSUING.
THIS BILL I LOOK FORWARD TO THE
STUDY AND I LOOK FORWARD TO WHAT
I HOPE COMES OUT OF THIS STUDY.
YOU KNOW WE HAVE ARENA
ALLOCATION SYSTEM IN THE STATE.
AND THOSE OF US IN INLAND
CALIFORNIA NO THIS WELL BECAUSE
THE REALLOCATION AT LEAST IN THE
PAST AND CONTINUING SEEMS TO
PUSH HOUSING ALLOCATIONS TO THE
INLAND AREAS OF THE STATE ONE
BECAUSE WE HAVE A LAND INTO
BECAUSE HOUSING AT LEAST IN THE
PAST HAS BEEN. LESS EXPENSIVE.
WE HAVE OF A GOVERNMENT PROGRAM
SEVERAL OF THEM IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA TO INCENTIVIZE JOB
CREATION. BOTH RECRUITING
INDUSTRY AND JOBS INTO
CALIFORNIA FROM OTHER STATES AND
TO INCENTIVIZE EMPLOYERS IN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA. TO EXPAND
THEIR OPERATIONS HERE ADDING
ADDITIONAL WORKERS. WHEN WE DO
THAT HOWEVER WE DO NOT REQUIRE
THAT THOSE JURISDICTIONS IT GAIN
THE ADDITIONAL COMPANIES WITH A
NEW JOB THROUGH EXPANSION TO
CERTIFY THAT THEY EITHER HAVE OR
WILL BUILD. AFFORDABLE WORKING
HOUSING IN THEIR COMMUNITIES
THUS THE REALLOCATION AND THOSE
THOSE OF US IN INLAND CALIFORNIA
. BUILDING HOUSING FOR THE
WORKERS IN OTHER PARTS OF THE
STATE WE HAVE A SUSTAINABLE
COMMUNITY SERIES OF STATUES
STATUTES IN THE STATE. FULLY
SUPPORT BUT THOSE SUSTAINABLE
COMMUNITY EFFORTS RESTRICT OR IN
SOME CASES PROHIBIT
TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS
CERTAINLY CAPACITY BUILDING
PROJECTS BECAUSE WHY THOSE
PROJECTS INCREASE IN MANY CASES
VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED. SO THINK
ABOUT IT FOR THOSE IN OF THE US
IN THE INLAND PARTS THOSE OF US
IN THE IN IN PARTS OF THE STATE
NORTH CENTRAL AND CERTAINLY
SOUTH WE BUILD HOUSING FOR
WORKERS WHO WORK IN OTHER PARTS
OF THE STATE AND OUR STATE
POLICIES RESTRICT TRANSPORTATION
PROJECTS THE DEBT CAPACITY TO
ALLOW US TO GET THE WORKERS FROM
THOSE HOUSES TO THE JOBS THAT WE
PAY TO LOCATE IN THE STATE. THIS
HAS TO BE CHANGED. AGAIN THE
AUTHOR. AND MY COLLEAGUE FROM
SANTA MONICA FOR PUSHING THIS
BILL FOR THAT LOOK FORWARD TO
THE RESULTS OF THE STUDY AND I
CERTAINLY LOOK FORWARD. TO WHAT
FOLLOWS FROM THIS STUDY THANK

SENATOR PORTANTINO THANK YOU HI
SEAN THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT
MEMBERS I RISE ON BEHALF OF. MY
COLLEAGUE SENATOR HERTZBERG TO
PRESENT THE BILL JOINTLY THAT WE
ARE JOINTLY AUTHORED SB FOURTEEN
FIFTY SEVEN. WE KNOW THAT
HOMEOWNERSHIP BENEFITS ARE
INDISPUTABLE. AND LEAD TO
MEASURABLE IMPROVEMENTS IN
HEALTH EDUCATION AND SECURITY.
THAT OLD SAYING HOME IS WHERE
THE HEART IS ALSO HOME WHERE THE
WEALTH IS. BUILDING EQUITY
ABSENT WITH UPWARD MOBILITY IT'S
CLEAR GENERATION- AFTER
GENERATION HAS EXPERIENCED THAT.
BUT TODAY IT'S MORE CHALLENGING
ESCALATING HOME PRICES SEVERE
PRODUCTION SHORTAGES AND
GENERATIONAL BARRIERS CAUSED BY
SYSTEM SYSTEMATIC ECONOMIC
INEQUITY ARE SQUEEZING MANY
ASPIRING HOMEOWNERS OUT OF THE
MARKET. ADDING FUEL TO THIS
RAGING FIRE THE WORST INFLATION
RATES OF THE TWENTY FIRST
CENTURY MAKING IT EVEN MORE
DIFFICULT FOR THOSE GRAPPLING
WITH RISING GAS COSTS AND
BALLOONING GROCERY BILLS TO
BECOME HOMEOWNERS. THE DATA
SPEAKS FOR ITSELF ONE IN FIVE
CALIFORNIA HOUSEHOLDS SPENDS
HALF OR MORE OF THEIR INCOME ON
HOUSING. THE MEDIAN COST OF HOME
IS NOW IN EXCESS OF SEVEN
HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND
DOLLARS MORE THAN TWO TIMES THE
NATIONAL AVERAGE AND THE STATE
RANKS FORTY NINTH IN THE NATION
FOR HOME OWNERSHIP. FIFTY AS A
RESULT ANY RENTERS OF ALL
INCOME LEVELS BUT ESPECIALLY
THOSE OF LOW AND MODERATE INCOME
VIEW HOMEOWNERSHIP AS AN
UNATTAINABLE GOAL THIS ONE'S
STANDARD BUILD UP OF A
CONVENTIONAL DOWN PAYMENT OF 20%
OF A HOME PRICE IS NOW PLAINLY
UNREALISTIC FOR MANY
CALIFORNIANS WE HAVE A
RESPONSIBILITY TO CREATE MORE
OPPORTUNITIES FOR FIRST TIME AND
OFTEN LEFT BEHIND HOMEOWNERS WHO
PURCHASED A HOME THRIVE IN THE
MIDDLE CLASS AND BUILD
GENERATIONAL WEALTH THIS CANNOT
BE ACCOMPLISHED WITHOUT
ADDRESSING THE SEVERE LACK OF.
IN ITS FUEL THIS CALIFORNIA
PRODUCES FEWER HOUSING UNITS PER
CAPITA THAN ANY OTHER STATE
OTHER THAN UTAH THAT IS WHERE SB
FOURTEEN FIFTY SEVEN COMES IN

FOURTEEN FIFTY SEVEN PROPOSES TO
USE INVESTOR MONEY TO BUILD NEW
HOUSING NOT TAXPAYER FUNDS THE
USE OF BOND FUNDS INCH. RIM IS
BACKED BY THE FULL FAITH AND
CREDIT OF THE STATE AND WILL BE
SELF LIQUIDATING THIS MEANS THAT
THE PROCEEDS SERVICE FROM THE
LOAN REPAYMENTS WILL BE
SUFFICIENT IN OVERTIME TO RETIRE
THE DEBT IN FULL AND WITH NO
MEANINGFUL RISK LOSS TO THE
STATE'S GENERAL FUND FOR OUR.
INTEREST RATE ON A FIRST
MORTGAGE THIS IS USUALLY
IMPORTANT FOR HOME BUYERS THE
BILL ALSO INCLUDES MODERN ZONING
IN STREAMLINING PROVISIONS AS
WELL AS IMPORTANT LABOR
STANDARDS TO ENABLE HOMEBUILDERS
TO SELL MORE NEW ENTRY LEVEL
HOMES AT PRICES THAT ARE
ATTAINABLE PERSPIRING HOMEOWNERS
SQUEEZED OUT OF THE CURRENT
MARKET. ITS CAREFULLY BALANCED
AGAIN I COMMEND. OUR COLLEAGUE

FOR BRINGING THIS IDEA TO MY
ATTENTION AND WE JOINTLY
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN AYE VOTE
. THANK YOU CENTER PORTANTINO
MEMBERS DISCUSSION AND OR DEBATE
. CENTER MELINDA'S. THANK YOU
MADAM PRESIDENT- YOU KNOW I
APPRECIATE THAT THE SENATORS
RECOGNIZE THAT WE HAVE A HOUSING
CRISIS IN CALIFORNIA I THINK WE
ALL UNDERSTAND THAT BUT I'M
HAVING DIFFICULTY UNDERSTANDING
HELLO PROVIDING SOMEONE WITH A
DOWN PAYMENT IS GOING TO HELP
THEM. PURCHASE IN STAY IN A HOME
WHERE THE HOME PRICES IN
CALIFORNIA THE MEDIAN HOME PRICE
IN CALIFORNIA IS EIGHT HUNDRED
THOUSAND DOLLARS. I DON'T KNOW I
MEAN THAT'S GONNA HAVE TO BE A
PRETTY BIG DOWN PAYMENT I WOULD
SAY IN ORDER FOR SOMEONE IF WE
ARE TALKING ABOUT LOW INCOME
FOLKS. BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN
MORTGAGE EVERY MONTH I MEAN I
SEE THAT. SEVEN BILLION- TO
PROVIDE LOANS TO DEVELOPERS SO I
GUESS THEY'RE PRETTY BIG WINNERS
IN THIS DEAL BUT I DON'T SEE HOW
THE PERSON TRYING TO GET INTO A
HOME. AND OF BEING A WINNER LIKE
THE DEVELOPERS THERE IS NO
POSSIBLE WAY. UNLESS YOU'RE
GIVING A 50% DOWN PAYMENT. THAT
ANYONE. IS GOING TO BE ABLE TO
GET INTO. A HOME AND BE ABLE TO
STAY IN IT GIVEN THE COST OF
HOUSING IN CALIFORNIA NOT TO
MENTION ALL THE OTHER THINGS
THAT THE- GOOD SENATOR POINTED
OUT WHICH IS THE INCREASED COST
OF. GASOLINE WHICH IS DUE TO
POLICIES ENACTED BY THE STATE
THE INCREASED COST IN UTILITIES
WHICH IS DUE TO POLICIES ENACTED
BY THE LEGISLATURE IN THE STATE
THE INCREASED COST IN GOODS AND
SERVICES AGAIN. DONE SO BY THE
POLICIES ENACTED BY THE
LEGISLATURE IN THE STATE SO- I'M
SORRY BUT THOUGH I YOU CERTAINLY
AGREE THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO GET
MORE PEOPLE IN THE HOME- I'M
GOING TO HAVE TO RESPECTFULLY
OPPOSE THIS BILL. THANK YOU
CENTER MELINDA'S SENATOR STERN-
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT. I
APPRECIATE THE INTENT OF THE
LEGISLATION AND I'VE I'M I'M
TRYING TO A TO GET TO PLACES
SUPPORT BUT MY OUTSTANDING
CONCERNS- ARE THOSE RAISED BY
SOME OF THE OPPOSITION- NAMELY
THE PROVISION THAT ALLOWS THE
PROJECTS TO OVERRIDE A LOCAL
ORDINANCE ESPECIALLY ON.
COLLUSION NERI ZONING FOR
AFFORDABILITY- AS WELL AS THE
ONGOING ISSUE THAT I'VE I'VE
PROBABLY RAISED ODD NAUSEUM ON
THIS FLOOR IN THIS HOUSE. THE
THE NOT PRESSURE PERMITTING
OTHER WORDS THE STREAMLINING OF
HOUSING BILLS DEEPER INTO OUR
HIGH FIRE SEVERITY ZONES WHERE I
THINK THAT. WE SOLD NEW
HOMEOWNERS AND RENTERS ON A RAW
DEAL THAT LOCKS THEM INTO SUPER
COMMUTES- AND OFTEN
UNSUSTAINABLE INSURANCE. THAT
MAKES WHERE THEY BUY A HOME BUT
CAN NO LONGER AFFORD IT
AFTERWARDS BECAUSE THEIR
INSURANCE RATES SKYROCKET- I
THINK THERE IS THERE A WORKABLE
PROVISIONS IN HERE AND I DO LOOK
FOR DISSING OF THE BILL OF ALL.
BUT IN LIGHT OF THESE
AFFORDABILITY AND FIRES ON
ISSUES OF ALL THE SPORTS THANK.
THANK YOU CENTER STERN MEMBERS
CENTER CHULA. THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT I APPLAUD THIS BILL I
THINK ALL OF US HAVE HEARD FROM
OUR CONSTITUENTS WHAT ARE WE
DOING FOR THE FIRST TIME HOME
BUYER ENTRY LEVEL BUYERS
COMMUNITIES THAT ARE DYING TO
HAVE PEOPLE JOIN THEIR COMMUNITY
TO BE PART OF THE COMMUNITY YEAH
OF COURSE. AS OF. DIFFICULT BUT
THIS PROGRAM HERE OVER THE LONG
HAUL WILLESTABLISH A ENTRY
LEVEL- SILENT- LUPONE OF SOME
SORT I GUESS WE CALL IT THE SIDE
OF THE SECOND TO HELP BRING
COSTS IN A PORTION DOWN PAYMENT
BUT REMEMBER THEY STILLHAVE TO
FIGHT THIS WILL HAVE TO MEET THE
STANDARD SET. UNDER SO THE WAY
IT IS IN THE DISTANCE THAT IS-
PAYABLE. IT BE GIVEN TO THE
NEXT- HOMEOWNER IN THE FUTURE SO
I THINK THIS IS A GREAT START.
TO HELP THAT ENTRY LEVEL BUYER
BECAUSE WE'VE HEARD IN THE PAST
FIREFIGHTERS POLICE OFFICERS
NURSES WHO WORK IN A COMMUNITY
CAN'T LIVE IN THAT COMMUNITY
THIS WILL OPEN THAT BURKE. FOR
CONSTRUCTION AND HOMEOWNERSHIP I
APPLAUD THE BILL AND AYE URGENT

REGIONAL RULE RULE COUNTIES AND-
THERE ARE MANY PROGRAMS
AVAILABLE- FOR FIRST TIME HOME
BUYERS OF PROGRAMS CARRY THIS

ALONG WITH MY JOIN AUTHOR MY
COLLEAGUES ARE COLLEAGUES I'M
STOCKS UP COLLEAGUES THERE ARE
SEVEN TO TWELVE THOUSAND
CALIFORNIANS WHO ARE AFFLICTED
WITH SCHIZOPHRENIA SCHIZOPHRENIA
LIKE. ILLNESSES THE FAMILIES OF
THOSE WHO ARE FLECKED DID THEY
KNOW THE PAIN AND SUFFERING OF
SCHIZOPHRENIA AND SCHIZOPHRENIA
LIKE ILLNESSES THEY KNOW THE
TURMOIL OF GETTING PHONE CALLS
IN THE MORNING- NOTIFYING THEM
THAT THEIR LOVED ONE IS
INCARCERATED AND ACTUALLY
FEELING A SENSE OF RELIEF
BECAUSE THEY KNOW THEIR LOVED
ONE AT LEAST IS SOMEPLACE WHERE
THEY CAN BE FOUND IT IS
PRESUMABLY TO BE WELL AS OPPOSED
TO. CALLS THEY MAY GET. THE
GOVERNOR HAS PROPOSED A BOLD NEW
PARADIGM SHIFTS- WHICH IS THE
COMMUNITY ASSISTANCE RECOVERY
EMPOWERMENT. CARE COURT PROGRAM
. THIS IS A PROPOSED FRAMEWORK
THAT IS INTENDED TO ADDRESS THE
NEEDS TO STABILIZE THOSE SEVEN
TO TWELVE THOUSAND CALIFORNIANS
IN ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF THEIR
FAMILIES AS WELL THIS
COMPREHENSIVE PROGRAM PROVIDES
FOR A- STRUCTURE WHERE THERE IS
A COURT WHO HAS ACCOUNTABILITY
WHERE THERE'S A SUPPORTER WHO
PROVIDES ASSISTANCE TO THOSE WHO
ARE ILL. A PUBLIC DEFENDER IF
NECESSARY BUT IT IS NOT A
COLLABORATIVE COURT IS CAN TWO
ONE IT DOESN'T PROVIDE FOR
INCARCERATION IT DOESN'T PROVIDE
AN ALTERNATIVE FOR EXAMPLE TO
CONSERVANCY. IT PROVIDES
INDIVIDUALS WITH CLINICALLY
APPROPRIATE COMMUNITY BASED
SERVICES AND SUPPORTS THAT ARE
CLINICALLY AND LOGISTICALLY AND
CULTURALLY COMPETENT- OUR
APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE-
PROVIDED TWO IMPORTANT
AMENDMENTS TO STRENGTHENING THE
HOUSING COMPONENT OF THE CARE
COURTS BECAUSE YOU CAN'T GET
WELL UNLESS YOU HAVE A STABLE.
LOCATION FROM WHICH YOU CAN.
THRIVE AND SURVIVE- ARE A DISH
ARE GOING TO BE ADDITIONAL MATHS
. THE CARE COURT PROGRAM IS ONE
THAT IS INNOVATIVE AND AS I
MENTIONED AT THE OUTSET IS A
PARADIGM SHIFT BUT ONE THAT'S
NECESSARY TO ADDRESS THOSE THAT-
WE'VE HAD A VERY DIFFICULT TIME
REACHING WHO HAVE SO IF ACTED
COURSE THEMSELVES THEIR FAMILIES
AND COMMUNITIES AND- THEY WHERE
THEY RESULT. RESIDE THANK YOU.
THANK YOU SERRA BURKE CENTER
EGGMAN. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
MADAM PRESIDENT MEMBERS I AM A
PROUD TO RISE AS A CO AUTHOR IN
SUPPORT OF MY COLLEAGUE YOU HAVE
THE CARE YOU HAVE THE COURT- SO
WE FEEL LIKE WE ARE. WE'RE
EXCITED TO BE WORKING TOGETHER
ON THIS AND REALLY BRINGING
BRINGING TOGETHER WE THINK A
COMPREHENSIVE TEAM WE'RE VERY
GRATEFUL TO THE GOVERNOR'S
OFFICE FOR COMING UP WITH THIS.
NEW CONCEPT YOU'VE ALL HEARD ME
TALK A LOT ABOUT OUR BROKEN
MENTAL HEALTH SYSTEM. NO I HAVE
BEEN SITTING ON THIS A PRETTY
INTENTLY THIS YEAR. NEITHER BY A
BILL PACKAGE THAT. WE'RE TO. OR
THIS BILL WILL WILL SOLVE ALL OF
OUR ISSUES BUT IT WILL GO A LONG
WAY TOWARDS DOING THAT
ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE. WHO HAVE
BEEN THE HARDEST TO TREAT- AND
SOME PEOPLE SAY YOU'RE PUTTING
IN AT THE FRONT OF THE LINE YES
KIND OF BECAUSE RIGHT NOW
THEY'RE NOT EVEN IN LINE THERE
TOO HARD TO TREAT. AS WE SAID
BEFORE. ONLY A PACK IMPACT
BETWEEN SEVEN AND TWELVE
THOUSAND PEOPLE- WILL IT SOLVE.
HOMELESSNESS NO IT WILL NOT BUT
ARE THE MAJORITY OF THESE PEOPLE
THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
SUFFERING FROM HOMELESSNESS. YES
THEY ARE- THIS AGAIN COMES WITH
THREE CORE COMPONENTS THAT ONE
BEING THE CARE BEING PROVIDED. A
TREATMENT PLAN. HAVING A
SUPPORTER. MY MEDICATION PLAN AS
WELL AS A HOUSING PLAN- AS I
THINK ABOUT. WHAT WE ALL
EXPERIENCE YESTERDAY IN THE
HELPLESSNESS AND HOPELESSNESS
THAT MAYBE YOU ALL FELT AS I DID
IN THINKING ABOUT THOSE CHILDREN
GUNNED DOWN. AND WE THINK WE
NEED TO DO MORE. AND YOU FEEL
FRUSTRATING CALIFORNIA BECAUSE
WE'VE PASSED SOME OF THE MOST
STRINGENT. WE CAN'T FIX OUR
COUNTRY'S GUN LAWS TODAY BUT WE
CAN. STOP PEOPLE DYING ON OUR
STREETS. AND LANGUISHING IN OUR
JAILS AND LANGUISHING IN OUR
EMERGENCY. AND FAMILIES ARE
LIVING HERE EVERY SINGLE DAY OF
THAT PHONE CALL THEY'RE GOING TO
GET A AND PRAYING THAT IT'S
THEIR PERSON'S BEEN TAKEN
SOMEWHERE SAFELY- SO THIS IS A
NEW AND INNOVATIVE NEW ON RAMP
INTO OUR MENTAL HEALTH SYSTEM-
IT IS INNOVATIVE AS WE ALL KNOW
OUR LPS LAWS WERE PASSED IN THE
SIXTIES WE'VE WAITED VENTURE
THERE. AND WHAT WE NEED TO
CONTINUE TO STRENGTHEN AND FIX
THOSE THIS IS A NEW ON RAMP FOR
THOSE VERY CHRONIC FOLKS WHOSE
DESPERATE CARE AND I WOULD
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR AYE
VOTE. THANK YOU CENTER CENTER
BORJA. BEN PRESENT I WANT TO
COMMEND- BOTH SENATORS BOTH
AUTHORS FOR THIS BILL. AND I
CERTAINLY WOULD HAVE SUPPORTED
IT INTO DISH IF THE CHAIR HAD
CLOSED THE ROLE- I THINK THIS IS
A- IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENT AND I
WANT TO CONGRATULATE YOU FOR THE
BOTH OF YOU FOR THE HARD WORK
THAT YOU'VE DONE. THANK YOU SEE
. I THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT
CENTERS ACTUALLY- THE QUESTION
FOR THE AUTHOR. THE NUMBER WE
TAKE YOUR QUESTION WELL IT IF
IT'S A HARD QUESTION MY
COLLEAGUE FROM STOCKTON SAID
SHE'D LIKE TO TAKE. YOU TO FOR
EITHER HANDED OUT OF TAKE A SHOT
FIRST YES- SO APPRECIATE THAT
AND FIRST OF ALL I WANNA THANK
YOU FOR. BOTH BOTH YOU AND
SENATOR I CAN FOR BRING THIS
FORWARD YOU KNOW WE HAD IT.
THINK OF VERY THOROUGH HEARING
AND HEALTH COMMITTEE AND- WHAT.
COUPLE CAME OUT DOING IT BUT ONE
OF THESE MEGA TO TAKEN APPROACH
- SO I THINK BOTH THE
ADMINISTRATION AND KNOWLEDGE.
AND AND I THINK YOU UNDERSTAND
THAT. HOUSING IS GOING TO BE
VERY IMPORTANT AND- THE BILL
THIS IS A CAME THROUGH HEALTH
COMMITTEE WE DID NOT HAVE A
REQUIREMENT FOR HOUSING. I THINK
I RAISE THE ISSUE ABOUT PRIORITY
FOR HOUSING LEAST. AND OF USE TO
AT THIS POINT TIME DOUBTS ON THE
FLOOR- WHAT THE- I ALSO
REQUIREMENTS FULL- BUT WHAT'S
BEING DONE TO ENSURE THAT PEOPLE
GOING THROUGH KERR CORE WILL
HAVE HOUSING BECAUSE WITHOUT
HOUSING TO BE VERY DIFFICULT TO
OBSERVE THESE SERVICES. AND IF
IT'S NOT ON THE IN THE FORM
THAT'S ON THE FLOOR- WHAT DO YOU
DISSIPATE ARE YOU COMMITTING TO-
IN THE ASSEMBLY TO TRY TO.
HOUSING HE SAID HE DID SAY YOU
OF THE- IN THE. AB CAN OPERATE
ON THAT. THIRD THANK YOU. THANK
YOU. SO PENCIL ARE CURRENTLY
THERE'S A TWELVE BILLION DOLLAR
INVESTMENT IN IN HOUSING ISSUES
BUT THERE'S ALSO A ONE POINT
FIVE BILLION DOLLAR INVEST IN
HOUSING SUPPORT BEHAVIORAL
HEALTH CHALLENGES- IN ONE OF THE
ATTRIBUTES OF THE OF THE CARE
COURTS IS THAT YOU HAVE A JUDGE
AND TO THE EXTENT THAT THE
COUNTY HAS THE CAPACITY BUT
HOUSING THE COURT CAN ACTUALLY
ORDER THE LEAST THAT'S MY
VISION- THE CAN ORDER THE COUNTY
TO PROVIDE THAT HOUSING- THERE
ARE STILL SOME CHALLENGES WE
RECOGNIZE THAT THERE ARE STILL
SOME CHANNELS THAT NEED TO BE
ADDRESSED AS THIS BILL MOVES
FORWARD. BUT I NOTICE WHEN
THERE'S INTENT AND IS CERTAINLY
.
AIRPORT AND I THINK I'LL TAKE
YOU THERE- BURKE I THINK CENTER
EGGMAN WOULD ALSO LIKE TO ANSWER
PARTY QUESTION CENTER PAM YES IF
IT'S ALRIGHT WITH THE NUMBER BUT
JUST. TO FURTHER ADD TO THE- AS
AS A STELLAR NUMBER SAID. OVER
TWELVE BILLION DOLLARS WE HAVE
PROVIDED FOR HOUSING IN AND
ENDED WITH LAST YEAR'S BUDGET
MORE WILL BE PROVIDED THIS
YEAR'S BUDGET. AND AS YOU KNOW
DR PAN. ONE SIZE DOES NOT FIT
ALL WITH. WITH THE POPULATION
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT- IT SO IT IS
VERY DIFFICULT TO TRY TO SEE
WHAT IT WILL BE. BECAUSE AS WE
SAID AN INDIVIDUAL WILL HAVE A
DEVELOP PLAN AND THEN THE JUDGE
WILL BE ABLE TO SAY IS THAT
ADEQUATE WHAT YOU'RE- PLANNING
FOR THEIR HOUSING OR IS IT NOT.
AND FOR THE COURT TO BE ABLE TO
ORDER THAT. BUT AS YOU KNOW SOME
PEOPLE MIGHT GO TO A SOBER
LIVING SOME PEOPLE MIGHT GO. BE
ABLE TO LIVE WITH THEIR FAMILY
WHO NOW BE WILLING TO HAVE THEM
BACK AT THE HOUSE IF THEY'RE
UNDER MEDICATION AND UNDER CARE.
SO WE REALIZE MORE NEEDS TO BE
DONE BUT WITH THE OVER TWELVE
BILLION DOLLARS INVESTMENTS THAT
WE HAVE SENT DOWN AND MORE
COMING THIS YEAR. WE KNOW THAT
THERE'S OUT THERE A LOT THE
FUNDING EXIST CURRENTLY. AND
BECAUSE WE'RE ONLY TALKING
BETWEEN SEVEN AND TWELVE
THOUSAND PEOPLE THAT WILL EACH
BE HAVE AN INDIVIDUALIZED PLAN.
THAT. IT WILL BE ORDER WHAT IS A
PRO FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL ALL
RIGHT I APPRECIATE IN THE ARE.
RIGHT IN A TO OF- COURSE ALSO
THE INVEST ARE BEING MADE IN THE
BUDGET- SO I I'M HERE I WANT
SEND THE SUPPORT THE BILL TODAY
TEAM BEFORE TO THINK I'VE BAY
SERVE INDICATE THIS AND
COMMITTEE BUT I'M GOING TO
REITERATE THIS IS THAT AND I
REALLY APPRECIATE MY GOOD FOR
STOCKTON SAYING THAT. THE ISSUE
IS THAT OFTENTIMES THE EVEN ON
THE LINE AND I THINK THAT'S ALSO
WHAT THE SECRETARY OF HEALTH AND
HUMAN SERVICES SAID AS WELL AND
THAT'S MY CONCERN IS THAT ALL
VESTING ALL THIS MONEY IN
HOUSING. I ALSO WANT TO BE SURE
THAT BY THE TIME SOMEONE ENDS UP
IN. COURT TEN THE INJURY CARE
COURT DAY SHOULD BE AT THE FRONT
OF THE LINE FOR WHATEVER HOUSING
CONSISTENT WITH THE HOUSING
PLAN. NOW MAYBE WE DON'T HAVE IT
READY YET AND WE'RE STILL STREET
BUT IF IT'S THERE. THEY SHOULD
BE WAITING WAITING WAITING THEY
SHOULD BE AT THE FRONT OF THE
LINE. OKAY SO I'M GONNA MAKE
THAT PITCH SO WHEN HIS OF
ASSEMBLY TO BE A LITTLE MORE
EXPLICIT ABOUT THAT. THAT IS.
OUR SO FAR THAT YOU'RE IN THE UP
IN THE KARAKUL. AND JUDGE OF THE
CARE IF IT HAS A HOUSING PLAN
WHICH IS REQUIRED UNDER YOUR
BELT. AT THE- THAT. THAT HOUSING
PLAN THERE A FRONTLINE TO GET
THAT THAT THEY DON'T HAVE TO
KEEP WEIGHT IN AN I REALIZE
MAYBE OTHER PEOPLE ONLINE IT'S
BETTER BUT IF YOU'RE AT THE
POINT WHERE YOU HAVE TO REQUIRE
CARE TOWARDS GETS CUT IN FRONT A
LINE BECAUSE EACH YEAR IN
CONSIDERABLE STRAITS AS LONG AS
YOU'RE UNDER THE CARE COURT IT
SO I DO WANT TO SAY THAT THE
OTHER THING I'M JUST GONNA SAY
BRIEFLY WHICH I KNOWS LITTLE
BEYOND THE PURVIEW BUT KNOWS
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE BUDGET I
THINK IT'S GOING TO PORT THAT
OUR COUNTY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH
SYSTEM WHICH WERE ALSO COUNTING
ON. TO BE ABLE TO DO A LOT OF
DIFFERENT THINGS TO MAKE THE
CARE COURT WORK NEEDS TO GET
FUNDING AS WELL TO BE ABLE TO DO
THOSE FUNCTIONS AND THAT'S
SOMETHING THAT YOU KNOW WE CAN
BE SURE THAT IT AGAIN TO MAKE A
SUCCESSFUL SO I KNOW IT'S A
LITTLE PERHAPS BEYOND YOUR BILL
ABOUT BUDGET. FOR THAT THEY HAVE
. PARTS OF THE IF YOU EVER HELP
. SYSTEM CAN ALSO DO THEIR RAW.
THAT YOU'RE- IN THAT THE BILL'S
GONE REQUIRED ON. SO I PREACH.
THE WORK. I KNOW THIS IS A- THE
L. TEN. DAYS THE ON THE WHOLE
LIST PEOPLE IN. YOU KNOW HAVE-
IT'S GONNA BE IS A VERY. TIME
DICK. KEEPING FORWARD I
APPRECIATE YOUR LEADERSHIP AND-
I'M CERTAINLY GOING TO SUPPORT
THE BILL I URGE OTHER PEOPLE
SUPPORT THE BILL BUT I ALSO
THINK THERE'S CONTINUE WORK TO
DO. AND I KNOW THAT YOU'RE GOING
TO CREATE A FOLDER THANK YOU.
THANK SENATE PANEL. THANK THAT A
PRESIDENTIAL POLL FOLKS DOWN
WHERE I COME FROM- WHEN THEY SEE
ME ON THE STREET SAY IN THE OF
THINKING ABOUT THIS CARE COURT
PROPOSAL THEY SAY IT'S ABOUT
TIME. SO I ONE OF CERTAINLY
THANK THE GOVERNOR I WANT TO
THANK THE PRO TEM I WANT TO
THANK THE BILL AUTHORS AND
OTHERS INVOLVED IN THIS EFFORT.
COMMENDED THE EFFORT BECAUSE I
THINK. EVERYONE IT'S A CRITICAL
COMPONENT OF OUR ATTEMPT TO DEAL
WITH. MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS
THAT'S A LONG STANDING CRISIS-
IN THE STATE I WILL NOTE THAT-
DO AS YOU ALL KNOW DUE TO THE
NINETEEN NINETY ONE- MENTAL
HEALTH AND HEALTH REALIGNMENT OF
FUNDING IN THE STATE. THERE ARE
SIGNIFICANT FUNDING INEQUITIES
COUNTY TO COUNTY NORTH TO SOUTH.
EAST TO WEST IN THE STATE THOSE
INEQUITIES REMAIN AND SO I'VE
SAID THIS BEFORE I'LL SAY IT
AGAIN IN ORDER FOR THIS PROGRAM
TO BE EFFICIENT EFFECTIVE. AND
ROBUST WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO
FIGURE OUT A WAY TO DEAL WITH
THOSE FUNDING INEQUITIES PERHAPS
NOT. THROUGH RESTRUCTURING THE
NINETEEN NINETY ONE REALIGNMENT
BUT RATHER THROUGH AUG TATIAN
FROM THE GENERAL FUND BUDGET.
AND IT'S ESSENTIAL THAT WE DO
THAT BECAUSE IT'S WELL WE HAVE
APPROPRIATED. BILLIONS OF
DOLLARS FOR HOUSING THIS PROGRAM
IS MORE THAN JUST HOUSING IT'S
ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT.
IT'S ABOUT PERSONNEL AT THE
COUNTY LEVEL TO PROVIDE THAT
SORT OF TREATMENT. IT'S ABOUT
ACUTE CARE SUB ACUTE CARE AND
SUB SUB ACUTE CARE MATT. TO HAVE
OF THE FUNDING DO THAT I'M
CONFIDENT THAT LEADERSHIP MY
BUDGET LEADERSHIP WILL PURSUE
THAT DURING THE BUDGET
NEGOTIATIONS. I LOOK FORWARD TO
SEEING FAULTS AND I CERTAINLY
URGE AN AYE VOTE ON THIS MEASURE
THANK YOU CENTER ROTH SENATOR
BATES. THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT
AND- LET ME OUT OF MY ARM. OF A
GREAT APPRECIATION TO THE
AUTHORS OF THIS MEASURE IT IS SO
VERY IMPORTANT IN IS CLEAR TO
ALL OF US AND ALL OF OUR
CONSTITUENTS THAT WHAT WE ARE
DOING ON HOMELESSNESS NEEDS NEW
APPROACHES. WE DO NEED
ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THE RESOURCES
WE'VE EXPANDED AND WE NEED
ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THE PROGRAMS
THE GOVERNORS CARE COURT
PROPOSAL IS. ABSOLUTELY A STEP
IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. IT IS A
NEW APPROACH AND WHILE I
HEARTILY SUPPORT THIS BILL
MOVING. WE DO NEED TO BE. NOT TO
SET COUNTIES ON COURTS UP FOR
THE FAILURE. THE CHARACTER
PROGRAM INCLUDES NEW
RESPONSIBILITIES AND OBLIGATIONS
IMPOSED ON COUNTIES AND COURTS
THAT REQUIRE ADDITIONAL
RESOURCES AND ONGOING FOR
FUNDING. IN ORDER FOR THE
PROPOSAL TO WORK AND BE
IMPLEMENTED AT THE LOCAL LEVEL
THE GOVERNOR AND THE LEGISLATURE
NEED TO COMMIT TO ADEQUATE AND
SUSTAINABLE SUSTAINABLE FUNDING
FOR COUNTIES. GIVEN THE
MAGNITUDE OF CARE COURT PROPOSAL
AND CAPACITY ISSUES THROUGHOUT
THE STATE AROUND BEHAVIORAL
HEALTH INFRASTRUCTURE WORKFORCE
AND HOUSING THE BEST PATH TO
SUCCESS FOR IMPLEMENTERS SHOULD
BE GROUNDED IN A THOUGHTFUL.
TRANSPARENT IN INCREMENTAL FEES
AND MODEL AND EIGHTEEN. YES
HOWEVER WE DO NEED TO GET ON TO
IT WE CAN'T HAVE YEARS OF DELAY
THIS APPROACH WILL AFFORD
STAKEHOLDERS AT ALL LEVELS OF
GOVERNMENT THE OPPORTUNITY TO
EXAMINE THE OUTCOMES CARE COURT
PARTICIPANTS FOR CARE COURT
PARTICIPANTS WORK THROUGH
IMPLEMENTATION HURDLES AND
DEVELOP A ROBUST AND SUCCESSFUL
STATE WIDE ROLLOUT THE CARE
COURT EFFORT MUST BE PAIRED WITH
TREATMENT THERE'S NO REAL PATH
TO SOLVING ARE HOMELESS YES
CRISIS THAT DOES NOT INVOLVE
EXPANDING TREATMENT CAPACITY TO
THAT END WE NEED TO CONSIDER IT.
INTEREST THAT WOULD PROVIDE
ACCESS TO INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE
UNABLE TO CARE FOR THEMSELVES
DUE TO UNTREATED ILLNESS OR
ADDICTION IN WILL PROVIDE MOST
IMPORTANTLY WILL PROVIDE THE
RESOURCES ARE LOCAL COUNTY
GOVERNMENTS ARE LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS AND COUNTY
GOVERNMENTS WILL NEED TO MEET
THE EXPECTATIONS THAT ARE PLACED
ON CALIFORNIA CARE COURT. NEED
TO RESET REPORT. THE RAND
CORPORATION AND FINANCED BY THE
CALIFORNIA MENTAL HEALTH
SERVICES AUTHORITY CALIFORNIA
HAS A DEFICIT OF FORTY SEVEN
HUNDRED SUB ACUTE AND ACUTE
PSYCHIATRIC TREATMENT BEDS. AND
IF WE HAVE THE LOWER ACUITY
ACUITY TREATMENT BEDS IN
COMMUNITY RESIDENTIAL FACILITIES
THAT DEFICIT INCREASES TO
SEVENTY SEVEN HUNDRED THE
REPORTS FIRST RECOMMENDATION IS
THAT A SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT IS
NEEDED INSIDE. PSYCHIATRIC BEEN
INFRASTRUCTURE AND WE NEED TO
CREATE A NEWS NEW CENTERS THAT
ARE STATE UNIVERSITIES FOR
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH FOCUS
ADDITIONAL. EDUCATION AND
DEGREES IN ORDER TO EXPAND THE
TREATMENT. IN MY OWN DISTRICT.
OF ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO- WE COULD
NOT GET PSYCHIATRISTS AVAILABLE
ARE IN OUR EMERGENCY ROOMS FOR
FIFTY ONE FIFTY FOLKS BROUGHT
THEIR IT WAS REALLY REALLY A
CRISIS IF WE DO NOT BUILD THE
TREATMENT CAPACITY NOW IT WILL
NEVER DO IT IN TOO MANY
CALIFORNIANS WILL CONTINUE. TO
NEEDLESSLY SUFFER AGAIN I
SUPPORT MOVING S. B. THIRTEEN
THIRTY EIGHT FORWARD BUT IT MUST
BE WORKED ON IN THE ASSEMBLY TO
MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE NOT
SETTING OUR COUNTIES AND COURTS
UP FOR FAILURE HE MUST ALSO BE
PAIRED WITH EXPANDED TREATMENT
CAPACITY. AND THAT CAN BE FUNDED
BY THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE
MENTAL HEALTH INFRASTRUCTURE
FUND AND I WOULD LIKE TO SEE
HERE THAT THE BUDGET PROPOSAL
REAP RECENTLY SUBMITTED AND
DISCUSSED BY THE REPUBLICAN
CAUCUS TO THAT END. AND I
STRONGLY SUPPORT OSWIN AN AYE
VOTE ON THIS MEASURE. THANK YOU
CENTER BATES CENTER ALSO. THANK
YOU MADAM PRESIDENT- I TO RISE
IN SUPPORT WITH CONCERNS AND I'M
SURE I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO
HAS- CONCERNS- SPEAKING OF WHICH
WITH IT. AND I'M NOT OPPOSED TO
THE QUICKNESS OF PUTTING FORWARD
OF THIS FRAMEWORK UP. THERE ARE
CONCERNS THAT HAVE BEEN RAISED
BY A NUMBER OF ORGANIZATIONS WHO
I BELIEVE ARE GOOD ALLIES OF
OURS ON ALL OF THE ISSUES- SO
ONE QUESTION I HAVE IF I MAY AND
PRESIDENT WE TAKE A QUESTION
CENTER NUMBER. YEAH IS- TO
ADDRESS THE REMAINING CONCERNS
WHAT DO YOU SEE WHERE IS THE
ENGAGEMENT PROCESS THAT WE CAN
CREATE OR THAT YOU'VE ALREADY
THOUGHT OF CREATING- SECOND
BECAUSE WE ALL WE BOTH WORK ON
OF THE JUDICIAL ISSUES IN THE
STATE IS- WHAT DO YOU SEE AS-
THE OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM IN
LIGHT OF SO MANY OTHER GREAT
NEEDS THAT WE HAVE LIKE-
EVICTIONS OR- CRIMINAL THERE'S
SO MANY THINGS THAT HAPPENED
THAT THE BACKLOG. AND THEN-
THREE IS BECAUSE OF THE- BLACK
AND BROWN BEING MORE
MISDIAGNOSED OR OVER DIAGNOSED
WITH THE SAME MENTAL ILLNESSES
HOW DO WE MAKE SURE THAT THIS
DOESN'T SPILL OVER INTO A NEW
SYSTEM- THAT ALSO BECOME SORT OF
A NEW- WAY OF. OF A
INCARCERATING OF THOSE
INDIVIDUALS SO IF YOU COULD
RESPOND- ROBERT SURE THANK YOU
LET ME LET ME ADDRESS THOSE IN
REVERSE ORDER IF I CAN ROOM
REMEMBER THAT PERSONAL IN TERMS
OF PRESERVATION- THIS IS A COURT
THAT IS IN THE CIVIL
JURISDICTION IS NOT A CRIMINAL
COURT AND I MENTION
COLLABORATIVE COURTS IT IS NOT A
CULT IS A COUSIN OF
COLLABORATIVE COURTS ITS PURPOSE
IS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE GET
PEOPLE BACK UP ON THEIR FEET BUT
BUT THERE IS NO- COMPONENT THIS
PROVIDES FOR. INCARCERATION
NUMBER ONE TERMS OF OTHER ISSUES
THAT BEEN RAISED- ARE A
COLLEAGUE AND FRIEND FROM
SACRAMENTO RAISED ISSUES
CONCERNING PRIVATIZATION OF
HOUSING THAT IS IN THE BILL
PRIORITIZING HOUSING IN FACT IT
IF THE COUNTY IS THE CAPACITY
THE COURT CAN ORDER THE MONEY TO
PROVIDE THAT HOUSING AND I
BELIEVE THAT- HAS BEEN ADDRESSED
AND WILL CONTINUE TO ADDRESS
THAT IN TERMS OF MY CALLING FROM
RIVERSIDE- IN FUNDING FUNDING IS
OBVIOUSLY THE UNDERPINNING OF
ANY POLICY AND THERE IS
SIGNIFICANT FUNDING. THE
GOVERNOR'S I THINK THAT WE ARE-
IN AGREE WITH INTER OF A PRO-
HOUSING TERMS OF THE- ISSUE
CONCERNING POTENTIAL RACIAL
DISPARITY THAT IS CLEARLY. NOT
THE INTENT- THE INTENT IS TO
HELP ALL THOSE OF THOSE SEVEN TO
TWELVE THOUSAND FOLKS WHO ARE-
SERIOUSLY AFFLICTED WITH MENTAL
ILLNESS IN PARTICULAR
SCHIZOPHRENIA. THAT THAT THAT'S
THE PURPOSE IS TO ADDRESS THAT
UNIVERSE IRRESPECTIVE OF YOU
KNOW REYES- THE- OTHER ISSUES
RAISED IN TERMS OF THE COURT
JUDICIAL. SIX ANOTHER QUESTION
ANOTHER IMPORTANT ISSUE- YES
THERE'S ADDITIONAL FUNDING THAT
PROVIDED TO THE COURTS TO ALSO.
MAKE SURE THAT WE DO THINGS LIKE
WE PROVIDE THAT ADDITIONAL
CAPACITY IN THE COURTS.
ADDITIONALLY TRAINING FOR JUDGES
THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT MIGHT
NATURALLY COME- TO- SOMEONE WHO
EITHER IS OR SPIRES TO BE A
JUDGE AND SO- WE DO RECOGNIZE
THAT ADDITIONAL TRAINING IS
GOING TO HAVE TO BE PROVIDED. TO
THE JUDGES THIS IS THIS IS A
DIFFERENT SORT OF ANIMAL FOR THE
COURTS BUT ONE I'M CONFIDENT
THEY'LL HANDLE AND HAVING A
JUDGE WHO HAS RESPONSIBILITY
ACCOUNTABILITY IS A CRITICAL
COMPONENT I HOPE THAT'S-
ADDRESSED AT LEAST SOME OF YOUR
ISSUES. THANK YOU IT CENTER
RECOMMENDED. CENTER EGGMAN YEAH
AND I WANTED TO RESPOND
SPECIFICALLY TO THE ISSUE OF
BLACK AND BROWN- HISTORICALLY
PEOPLE OF COLOR HAVE SOUGHT OUT
MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT LESS AND
HAVE HAD LESS ACCESS TO IT. AND
WE KNOW THAT THE BEST WAY TO BE
ABLE TO TREAT THEM EFFECTIVELY
IS EARLIER INTERVENTION AND SO
OFTEN TIMES PEOPLE DON'T GET
CARE AND THEN END UP MUCH MORE
INTENSIVE YEARS. CIRCUMSTANCES
THAN OTHERS AND SO THE ISSUES
AROUND ACCESS. IT EXIST
HISTORICALLY. WITH THIS BILL
DOES NOT AFFECT IT AT ALL BUT IT
DOES MOVE ANYBODY WHO WHO I
FITS THIS CRITERIA TO THE VERY
FOR THE LINE TO MAKE SURE THEY
GET THE HELP THEY NEED AND
AGAIN. IT'S SIMPLE IT IS.
PENALIZING THESE FOLKS AT ALL IS
ABOUT GETTING ON THE CARE THE
HOUSING AND THE TREATMENT THAT
THEY NEED. THANK YOU ALL SENATOR
COM LONGER. THANK YOU AT MADAM
PRESIDENT I TO RISE IN- CAUTIOUS
SUPPORT OF THIS BILL I THINK
IT'S INCREDIBLY AUDACIOUS I MEAN
THIS IS NOT A BITE AT THE APPLE
THIS IS THE ENTIRE ORCHARD- AND
I'M ALSO HOPING THAT THE AUTHORS
OF THIS BILL WILL TAKE INTO
CONSIDERATION SOME OF THE- VERY
VOCAL AND LEGITIMATE OPPOSITION
THAT HAS BEEN RAISED I WANT TO
ECHO SOME OF THE CONCERNS BY THE
GOOD SENATOR FROM LOS ANGELES-
WHO ALSO RAISE SOME OF THEM. YOU
KNOW THIS BILL AS I READ IT
IMPACTS FOUR DIFFERENT CODES THE
PENAL CODE THE INSURANCE CODE
THE WELFARE AND INSTITUTIONS
CODE AND HEALTH AND SAFETY AND
SOMETIMES THOSE CODES DON'T WORK
TOGETHER AND NOW WE HAVE CREATED
THIS VERY. ASPIRATIONAL AND
DYNAMIC OVERHAUL OF THE SYSTEM
AND SO I THINK WE SHOULD BE VERY
ROOTED IN REALITY THAT THIS IS
NOT GOING TO- SEE SUCCESS
OVERNIGHT BECAUSE THESE ARE
SYSTEMS THAT HAVE BEEN IN PLACE
FOR QUITE SOME TIME IN TERMS OF
THEIR DEVELOPMENT HOW THEY'VE
BEEN OPERATIONALIZED IMPLEMENTED
WHERE THEY FAIL AND WHERE THEY
LEAVE PEOPLE OUT. I YOU KNOW THE
REALITY IS THAT YOU CANNOT
LEGISLATE BY IN. IN THIS
PROPOSAL IS GOING TO REQUIRE BUY
IN FROM BOTH IMPACTED.
COMMUNITIES FROM THE COURT. FROM
COUNTIES AND FROM SYSTEMS AND
MOST IMPORTANTLY IT'S GOING TO
REQUIRE. AND INFUSION OF HUMAN
CONTACT OF PEOPLE WORKING WITH
PEOPLE AND WHAT YOU DON'T WANT
IS TO CREATE A NEW SYSTEM OF
CHUTES AND LADDERS WHERE PEOPLE
ARE FUNNELED THROUGH NEW CHAOS.
THAT'S BEEN DESIGNED TO HELP
THEM GET TREATMENT OR FORCE THEM
INTO TREATMENT AND IT DOESN'T
WORK BECAUSE THERE IS NOT A
HUMAN CONNECTION OF LIKE THE
CHECK INS AND THE UNDERSTANDINGS
AND THE NON JUDGMENTAL SUPPORT.
I CAUTION THAT THERE ARE FAMILY
MEMBERS AND FRIENDS OF PEOPLE
WHO ARE IMPACTED. WHO ARE NOT
INTERESTED IN THEIR PEOPLE'S
WELL BEING AND SUCCESS. THERE
ARE NOT VARIOUS FOLKS OUT THERE
INTERESTED IN A GAMING SYSTEMS
AND BE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF
PEOPLE WHO NEED HELP AND HOW DO
WE MAKE SURE WHEN WE'RE CREATING
A SYSTEM THAT WE ARE NOT
LEANING. YOU KNOW BECAUSE YOU
HAVE TO HAVE THE SUPPORT FROM
THE FAMILY MEMBER OR THIS PERSON
IS GOING TO YOU KNOW WRITE IN A
LETTER AND IS THERE INVOLVED IN
THE DECISION MAKING OF THIS
PERSON'S HEALTH AND WELL BEING
WHAT IT THE CHECKS AND BALANCES
TO MAKE SURE THAT. THE
INTERESTED IN THAT. AND SUCCESS.
ARE AT THE TABLE. AND I ALSO
HOPE THAT THIS DOESN'T CREATE A
COTTAGE INDUSTRY FOR LAWYERS WHO
ARE HELPING FAMILIES AND FRIENDS
LIKE NAVIGATE THIS NEW THING.
BECAUSE WE KNOW WHERE THAT CAN
END UP. YOU KNOW LASTLY I JUST
WANT TO SAY THAT- SELF
DETERMINATION. IS INCREDIBLY.
IMPORTANT IT IS PRIMARY FOR ME.
AND IT'S PRIMARY FOR FOLKS FROM
THE DISABILITY COMMUNITY. IT'S
ALSO REALLY PRIMARY FOR FOLKS
WHO ARE MENTALLY ON WELL IN FOR
HOMELESS FOLKS AND FOR BLACK AND
BROWN COMMUNITIES THAT FIND
THEMSELVES IN THE SYSTEMS.
DISPROPORTIONATELY AND I JUST
WANT TO SHARE TWO STORIES THAT I
THINK HELP RESONATE BOTH MY
CONCERN. AND MY SUPPORT FOR THIS
BILL. THE FIRST ONE IS. FATIMA
FATIMA IS HOMELESS SHE HAS. HE'S
HAVE AIDS HE'S BLIND HE'S
HOMELESS. SHE THE WAS MOVED IN
THE PROJECT ROOM KEY AFTER
LIVING ON THE STREETS FOR A
REALLY LONG TIME SHE HAS A CARE
GIVER HER BOYFRIEND WHO'S ALSO
HER DEALER AND HER PART TIME
USER FRIEND. AND HER PAM. AND
THEY BOTH ENDED UP IN PROJECT
ROOM KEY. AND SHE- ENSURING THE
STORY I WAS LIKE WELL YOU NEED
TO GET AWAY FROM THIS MAN. AND
THE FOLKS THE HEALTH CARE
PROVIDERS SAID YEAH WE'VE BEEN
TRYING TO DO THAT BUT SHE WON'T
GO AND I SAID THIS DOESN'T MAKE
ANY SENSE THEY BOTH ENDED UP IN
PROJECT ROOM KEY THEN THERE WAS
A SERIES OF EVENTS AND SHE GOT
KICKED OUT- AND SHE ENDED UP
PITCHING A TENT RIGHT NEXT DOOR.
TO THE FACILITY SO SHE COULD BE
CLOSE. TO HER FRIEND WHO WAS HER
CARE GIVER HER PAMPER HER DEALER
. ME AND PROVIDERS LIKE WHAT NOW
SHE'S OUT GET HER NOW THAT SHE'S
OUT HOW DO WE HELP HER GET AWAY
FROM THIS PERSON. AND THEY SAID
WELL YOU KNOW SHE HER BELIEF IS
THAT SHE WOULD RATHER BE ABUSED
BY THE PERSON THAT SHE KNOWS.
WHO IS GETTING MONEY EVERY MONTH
BECAUSE HE IS HER CARE GIVER SO
HE'S GIVING HER MEDICATION HE'S
GETTING HER AROUND BECAUSE SHE-
IS BLIND- AND HE'S ALSO ABUSING
HER. AND SHE SAID SHE WOULD
RATHER BE WITH THAT PERSON THEN
OUT ON THE STREET ALONE BEING
ABUSED AND SEXUALIZED BY SO
MANY. PEOPLE NOW IS SHE DEFIANT
OR ISSUE SELF DETERMINANT. IT IS
AT MY RIGHT TO DETERMINE THAT. I
STILL HAVE CONFLICT ABOUT THE
STORY ABOUT THE TEAM BUT FATIMA
IS NOT ONE PERSON THERE ARE
THOUSANDS OF THE TEAM IS OUT
THERE. AND SHE PITCHED HER TENT
NEXT TO WHERE HE WAS TO BE CLOSE
TO A MAN WHO WAS ABUSING HER.
THE SECOND STORY IS DAVID. DAVID
SISTER- BABYSAT ME WHEN I WAS
LITTLE. CLOSE FAMILY FRIEND. I
HAD A DAVID WAS SMART AND
ATTRACTIVE AND GOING PLACES
DAVID. I TOOK A TRIP AND BECAME
SCHIZOPHRENIC. AND DAVID. HIS HE
WOULD EIGHT HE GOT HELP WHEN HE
WANTED TO AND HE DIDN'T WHEN HE
DIDN'T WANT TO DAVID WAS OVER
EIGHTEEN AND SO THE DOCTOR SAID
TO HIS MOTHER MY GOOD FRIEND WE
CANNOT MANDATE DAVID TO GET HELP
. SO THERE WERE DAYS WHEN DAVID
WOULD WALK BY HIS MOTHER. AND
DID NOT NOTICE HER AT ALL DID
NOT RECOGNIZE HER. I WENT TO
VISIT THEM DAVID WENT TO THE
ROOM. HE WASTALKING TO HIMSELF
IN A VOICE THAT WAS SO DEMONIC.
THAT IT MADE ME DEEPLY AFRAID.
DAVID TRIED TO SET THEIR CONDO
ON FIRE. AND HE WAS THEY HAD TO
GO. DAVID WALKED INTO LAKE
MICHIGAN. AND HIS MOTHER. I HEAD
TO IDENTIFY HIM AS A JOHN DOE
WITH ATTACK ON HIS SPORT AT THE
CORNERS. I GREW UP WITH DAVID.
THEY DESERVE TO GET HELP. MAYBE
THAT HELP. WOULD HAVE SAVED. BUT
I DON'T KNOW. WHICH VOICE OR
VOICE IS. FRANCINE OR THE
DOCTORS OR DAVID. SHOULD HAVE
LISTENED TO. DAVID IS WHY WE
NEED SOMETHING LIKE THIS. FATIMA
IS WHY WE NEED TO BE INCREDIBLY
CAUTIOUS AND THOUGHTFUL ABOUT
THE OPPOSITION. I DON'T TALK
MUCH ABOUT DAVID. BUT IT IS VERY
HARD IN OFTENTIMES FOLKS WHO ARE
MENTALLY UNWELL AND HAVE
SCHIZOPHRENIC ARE LEFT INTO THE
MARGINS OF OUR SOCIETY. AND THEY
DO HAVE A RIGHT. THEY HAVE A
RIGHT. TO BE LISTENED TO. AND
ONCE AGAIN. DAVID ABDICATE. OR
WAS IT SELF DETERMINATION. THESE
ARE SO IMPORTANT QUESTIONS THAT
WE NEED TO REALLY MAKE SURE. WE
GET RIGHT. SO I WILL BE
SUPPORTING THIS BILL. BUT I WILL
BE THINKING ABOUT THE- BOTH OF
THOSE PEOPLE WHILE THIS MAKES
ITS WAY. TO THE OTHER SIDE.
BECAUSE BOTH OF THEIR STORIES
ARE IMPORTANT. THANK YOU SIR
WATER CERRO CHOKE. THANK YOU
MADAM PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS. AS
A PLANNING ON FILING SENATOR.
FROM LA BUT I WANT TO THANK HER
THOUGHTS FISHING HER THOUGHTS
BECAUSE I ABSOLUTELY AGREE WITH
THEM AND I ALSO AGREE WITH MANY
OF THE COMMENTS I HAVE MADE ON
THIS FLOOR TODAY. I LIKE TO
THINK THE AUTHORS FOR THIS BILL
. BECAUSE AS OUR SENATOR FROM
RIVERSIDE MANSION MANY HAVE
STATED IT'S ABOUT TIME. AND
WE'RE LUCKY SUPPORTING THIS BILL
TODAY DO RISE WITH CONCERNS THAT
HAVE BEEN SHARED IN SOME THAT
HAVEN'T YET I HAVE HEARD FROM
MANY STAKEHOLDERS THAT THEY NEED
MORE TIME TO IMPLEMENT THE NEW
PROCESSES IN THIS BILL.
ADDITIONALLY AS MENTIONED
THEY'RE NOT ENOUGH RESOURCES
CURRENTLY COMMITTED IN ORDER TO
ENSURE THE SUCCESS OF THE SYSTEM
. I DO HAVE A QUESTION TO THE
AUTHOR. CENTER I'M BURKE WE TAKE
A QUESTION- YES CENTER TROUBLE
PLEASE PROCEED. WOULD YOU BE
WILLING TO AMEND THE BILL IN THE
ASSEMBLY TO PUSH THE TIMELINE
BECAUSE THAT IS ONE OF THE-
CONCERNS THAT HAVE BEEN RAISED.
CENTER NUMBER OF THE- THE
PROPOSAL HAS A VERY AGGRESSIVE
TIMELINE AS IS APPROPRIATE FOR
AN ISSUE THAT IS SIGNIFICANT AND
IS A CUTE AS IT EXISTS TODAY
CALIFORNIA BUT- WE ARE MINDFUL I
SUPPOSE OF ALL SPEAK FOR MIKE
JOIN AUTHOR WE ARE MINDFUL OF
THE FACT THAT THAT THIS
AGGRESSIVE TIMELINE- IS
IMPORTANT THAT WE STAY ON TRACK
BUT WE DO THIS RIGHT. AND SO YES
WE ARE GOING TO BE FLEXIBLE AS
TO THE TIMELINE WE DON'T WANT TO
DELAY THIS TOO LONG WE WANT TO
MAKE SURE WE GET IT RIGHT SO THE
SHORT ANSWER IS YES. THANK YOU
VERY MUCH- SENATORS AND THAT
THANK YOU VERY MUCH CENTERED
SHOWBOAT CENTER NIELSEN. MADAM
LADIES GEM OF THE SENATE I WANT
. RECORD A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY
HERE JUST TO. INSURE THE
CONFERENCE AND WHERE THIS IS
HEADED. LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT
PROGRAM MAYBE. BUT THE PATTERN.
IS THE ONE FIX THAT. MY STAFF
WERE ABLE TO DIG UP A- ARTICLE
IN THE PICTURE ABOUT THE SIGNING
OF THE GAIN PROGRAM. IN THE
PICTURE I AM ANISE WOULD CENTER
GARAMENDI. THE SETTLEMENT KHAN
YOUNIS SEVEN MINS AGNES. IN THE
MID EIGHTIES. GAINED
DRAMATICALLY CHANGED WELFARE IN
CALIFORNIA. WHICH WAS NOT ABOUT
DEPENDENCE BUT ABOUT EMPOWERMENT
ABOUT HELP. LIKE WE DO AND
SPECIAL ED IN OUR SCHOOLS I II
PEACE WELL THIS IS KIND OF LIKE
AN IEP INDIVIDUAL TREATMENT
PROGRAM IF YOU WILL. TO ASSIST
AN INDIVIDUAL. TO REDRESS THE
ISSUE SUPPORT ADDRESS THE ISSUES
THAT WERE PLAGUING HIM. AND THAT
THEN LATER. BAGANDA THE DRUG
COURT AND CALIFORNIA. AND I
HELPED JUDGE DARRELL STEPHENS IN
BUTTE COUNTY START ONE OF THE
FIRST IF NOT THE FIRST. IN
CALIFORNIA. THE DRUG COURT COURT
WAS NOT JUST ABOUT DEPENDENCE.
IS ABOUT ACCOUNTABILITY AND HELP
AND EMPOWERMENT IT WORKED. IT
TOOK PROP FORTY SEVEN DESTROYED
THE DRUG COURT. I WON'T GET INTO
THE WHOLE EYES IT DID BUT IT DID
. NOW DRUG COURTS WHICH WAS
IMMENSELY SUCCESSFUL. HAS BEEN
REPLACED BY INDIVIDUALS NOT
HAVING THEIR NEEDS MET. BUT THEY
GET SLICE INCARCERATIONS WHICH
IS NONSENSE NOW WHAT'S THE KEY
HERE. WITH THIS PARTICULAR PLAN
THAT IS BEING PROPOSED. IT TALKS
ABOUT RECOVERY. ASSISTANCE
EMPOWER. THAT IS A PATHWAY TO
SUCCESS. NOT THE PATHWAY THE
DEPENDENCE. AND YOU PROBABLY
HEARD ME AT LEAST SOME OF YOU IN
COMMITTEE AND ON THE FLOOR TALK
ABOUT. A KIND OF AN
INDIVIDUALIZED TREATMENT PLAN.
FOR THE HOMELESS POPULATION.
BECAUSE I SAY HISTORICALLY ALL
WE'VE DONE ABOUT HOMELESSNESS
THROW MONEY AT. NOT
ACCOUNTABILITY. NOT TREATMENT
NOT ASSESSMENT OF NEEDS AND
HELPING THOSE INDIVIDUALS
ADDRESS THEIR NEEDS SO THEY ARE
NOT DEPEND ON BEING HOMELESS.
WELL THIS IS SUCH A PATHWAY FOR
PARTICULARLY CHALLENGED
INDIVIDUALS. AND I BELIEVE IT'S
HELPFUL. THAT HAS INCORPORATED
INTO IT ASSESSMENT. TRAITEMENT
THE ACCOUNTABILITY. AND I WILL
ARGUE RESULTS IF WE REALLY WANT
TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT
HOMELESSNESS. SHELTER IS A PART
OF THE DEAL BUT UNFORTUNATELY
THAT'S ALL WE'VE REALLY FOCUSED
ON. THIS CAN BE A PATHWAY. BUT
THAT SUCCESS OF INDIVIDUALS WHO
HAVE CHALLENGES. IN THEIR LIVES
. NOW ONE OF THE ASPECTS OF THIS
THAT MUST BE ADDRESSED AND I
SUGGEST WE CAN TAKE STEPS IN
THIS PARTICULAR BUDGET. AND
REPUBLICANS HAVE ADVOCATED FOR
THIS. AND THEN THERE ARE THE
DIFFERENT WAYS MAYBE THE
DEMOCRATS HAVE TO. SO THERE'S
ROOM HERE FOR COMPROMISED AND
SUCCESS. AND AS WE FINISH UP
THIS YEAR WITH OUR BUDGET THIS
IS ONE AREA WE MOST ASSUREDLY
SHOULD FOCUS ON AND ADDRESS.
HELP THOSE INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE
HOMELESS. I THINK WE ALL GET
TIRED OF SEEING THE TENTS ALL
OVER THE PLACE I DRIVE IN FOUR
DAYS A WEEK IN HERE. THIS CAP
AND SEE NOTHING BUT- DIFFICULTY
. AND THAT'S POLITELY PUT. WE
ARE HELPING THOSE INDIVIDUALS BY
JUST THROWING DOLLARS AT THE
WALL AND- NOT REALLY HELPING
THEIR INDIVIDUAL NEEDS AND THEY
HAVE MANY. ALL OF THEM ARE NOT
MENTAL AND ALL OF NOT PHYSICAL.
BUT A HECK OF A LOT OF THE MARK
. AS I SAID OFTEN HERE TO THE
CONSTANT IN THE LIVES OF MOST
CRIMINALS IN CALIFORNIA. IS A
BROKEN HEART. WHICH IS WHERE
THIS ALL STARTS SOMETIMES IN THE
WOMB. AND THE NEGATIVE BEHAVIOR
THAT THEY RESORT TO. THE COUPLE
THEMSELVES AND TO SURVIVE. THAT
IS A PATHWAY TO SUCCESS. AND
INDEED A PROVEN ONE. AS WE
PROCEED IN THE STILL. WE CANNOT
IGNORE WE MUST FOCUS ON A
COUNTIES OF CALIFORNIA. WHO ARE
AT THE VANGUARD TO THEIR
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROGRAMS. FOR
THE TREATMENT NECESSITY AND THE
SUCCESS OF INDIVIDUALS. COULD
NOT BE CONSTRAINED AND DESTROYED
. BY THE CHALLENGES THIS IS A
POSITIVE PATHWAY. I ENCOURAGE IT
ARJUN I VOTE AND I URGE A
SUSTAINED ATTEMPT NOT AN ATTEMPT
RATHER BUT ITS SUCCESS OF ALL OF
US. TO ADDRESS THESE NEEDS OF
INDIVIDUALS IN SOME CASES BEFORE
THEY END OUT ON THE STREETS. OR
DECEASED. OR OTHER SITUATIONS I
DO WORDS AND I VOTE THANK YOU
SENATOR NELSON SENATOR
PORTANTINO. THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT MEMBERS I RISE TO
SUPPORT S. B. THIRTEEN THIRTY
EIGHT AND- CERTAINLY APPRECIATE
THE CONVERSATION THAT HAS
SEVEN YOU KNOW THIS IS A
SENSITIVE IMPORTANT. PROBLEM TO
HAVE. ACROSS CALIFORNIA AND IT
NEEDS. A SENSITIVE
IMPLEMENTATION AND FRANKLY NEW
IDEAS- WE'VE TRIED FOR DECADES
TO ADDRESS MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES
HOMELESS ISSUES AND FRANKLY I'VE
NOT HAD TREMENDOUS SUCCESS- AND
WE DO NEED TO TRY A NEW
APPROACH- WHENEVER YOU TRY TO
BRING SOMETHING NEW TO THE TABLE
THERE'S A NATURAL. HESITANCY AND
RESISTANCE AND I THINK IT'S
IMPORTANT THE CON THAT CERTAINLY
THE CONCERNS HAVE BEEN RAISED
ARE ARE THE RIGHT QUESTIONS TO
ASK AND I HAVE FAITH IN IN THE
AUTHORS- BOTH OF THEM- AND- THE
FOR THE FOLKS SHEPHERDING THIS.
TO ADDRESS THEM- SHARING MEMORY
FAMILIES BEEN TOUCHED BY A
MENTAL HEALTH ISSUE BY A
HOMELESS PERSON- NO THIS IS NOT.
WE'RE NOT IMMUNE TO THIS- JUST
IN MY OWN FAMILY SITUATION I-
HAD A SIBLING. WHO WENT THROUGH
THREE DIFFERENT COUNTY HOSPITALS
. IN CALIFORNIA THREE DIFFERENT
COUNTY HOSPITALS THREE DIFFERENT
COUNTIES. AND LO AND BEHOLD ON
DAY FOURTEEN. WAS DECLARED NOT A
THREAT TO HIMSELF. AND I DON'T
WANT TO BELIEVE THAT BECAUSE YOU
DIDN'T HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE THE
DECISION NOT TO KEEP HIM WAS
PREDICATED ON THAT- SITUATION
BUT LO AND BEHOLD ON DAY
FOURTEEN IN THREE DIFFERENT
COUNTIES. HE WAS SENT HOME. AND
AFTER THE THIRD TIME HE TOOK HIS
OWN LIFE. AND I JUST IN A WISH
WE HAD AN OPPORTUNITY AT THAT
POINT. TO SEE HIM GET EXTENDED
CARE- AND THE LOVE AN-
OPPORTUNITY TO BE WITH US TODAY
AND SELF I STRONGLY SUPPORT SB
THIRTEEN THIRTY EIGHT AND REALLY
APPRECIATE. THE CONVERSATION ON
THE CONCERNS AND DEFINITELY KNOW
THE AUTHORS ARE GOING TO BE
ADDRESSING THEM AS WE MOVE
FORWARD. THANK YOU CENTER
PORTANTINO CENTER BAKER. THANKS
MEMBERS AYE I KNOW THERE'S BEEN
A LONG DEBATE AND WE CAN'T SAY
BETTER THAN MY COLLEAGUE I JUST
WANNA SAY THAT'S A REALLY RISING
GRATITUDE. BECAUSE I KNOW THESE
ISSUES ARE DIFFICULT. I KNOW
THESE ISSUES ARE COMPLEX. AND I
ALSO BELIEVE THEY ARE PROBABLY
THE MOST IMPORTANT THAT WE WILL
TRUST THIS YEAR. AND SO TO HAVE
FOLKS X. CENTER FROM STOCKTON
AND SENT FROM SANTANA. WHO ARE
KNOWLEDGEABLE ARE COMPASSIONATE.
I JUST KNOW THEY'RE GONNA GIVE
US THE RIGHT PLACE AND I AM ALL
IN. WHATEVER I CAN DO IN THIS
LESSON GEN I DO THINK IT'S THAT
IMPORTANT SO THANK YOU. THANK
YOU SENATOR BAKER CENTER ALAN.
MEMBERS I'M SO STRUCK BY HOW
MANY OF US OF. PEOPLE WE LOVE
AND NO. OUR COLLEAGUE FROM LOS
ANGELES SPOKE SO ELOQUENTLY
ABOUT DAVID- THERE'S SOMEONE IN
MY LIFE FOR THE SIMILAR STORY

DESPERATE TO HELP HIM WEREN'T
ABLE TO FIND A WAY. AND HE
ULTIMATELY TOOK HIS LIFE
STEPPING INTO TRAFFIC. ANOTHER
FRIEND I GREW UP WITH WENT TO
HIGH SCHOOL WITH SIGNS ON THE
STREETS I BELIEVE BUT I'M NOT
QUITE SURE THAT IT'S AND VERY
TOUGH SITUATIONS THAT I. THAT I
KNOW WOULD HAVE BEEN HE WOULD
BENEFIT FROM SOMETHING LIKE THIS
SO I WANT TO VOTE. FOR THIS BILL
TODAY IN IN THEIR HONOR. THANK
YOU CENTER ALLEN CENTER STERN.

FLOOR HERE TODAY I'LL I'LL TAKE
A SLIGHTLY. LESS PERSONAL ATTACK
IN AND TALK ABOUT MECHANICS FOR
SECOND- THE WELFARE AND
INSTITUTIONS CODE. THAT THIS
BILL AMENDS SAYS THAT MENTAL
HEALTH CARE IS A BASIC HUMAN
SERVICE. I BELIEVE IT OUGHT TO
BE A BASIC HUMAN RIGHT. WE
CURRENTLY TREAT. HOUSING THAT
HEALS AS SOMETHING IT'S SUBJECT
TO APPROPRIATION SOMETHING IS
SUBJECT TO THE BUDGET CYCLES.
AND IF WE'RE ACTUALLY GOING TO
BILL THIS NEW INFRASTRUCTURE OF
CARE. THE REQUIREMENT AND I
BELIEVE THE MANDATE ON US IS TO
SAY. THESE RESOURCES WILL BE
THERE FOR YOU. IF YOU'RE GOING
TO TRUST US ENOUGH TO COME INTO
THIS CARE. WE'RE NOT GOING TO
RECYCLE YOU THROUGH THE SYSTEM
LIKE WE DO WITH SO MANY PEOPLE
ON THE STREETS. OUR AUDIT OF L.
A. COUNTY AND SAN FRANCISCO.
FOUND THAT THE AVERAGE PERSON
LIVING ON THE STREET RIGHT NOW
IS CYCLED TEN TIMES THROUGH THE
SYSTEM THROUGH FIFTY ONE FIFTY
HOLDS FORCED HOSPITALIZATIONS
EXPENSIVE STINTS IN JAIL
SYSTEMS. OVER AND OVER AND OVER
AGAIN CUMULATIVELY AN INCREDIBLY
EXPENSIVE. SYSTEM THAT
TRAUMATIZE IS IN BREACH IS OUR
TRUST WITH PEOPLE SO THEY DON'T
WANT TO COME INTO CARE ANYMORE
THEY DON'T WANT TO GO TO A CARE
COURT. AND THAT SOME OF THE
SENSITIVITY YOU'RE HEARING FROM
THE OPPOSITION TO THIS
LEGISLATION. THAT THEY JUST
DON'T TRUST. THAT IT'S GOING TO
BE THERE FOR THEM. THE NEW
PROVISIONS ADDED EVEN IN
APPROPRIATIONS SAY. AT THE CARE
PLAN MAY. MAY INCLUDE THE
FOLLOWING HOUSING SUPPORT
SYSTEMS AND THE FOLLOWING
BEHAVIOR HEALTH SYSTEMS. NOW I
RECOGNIZE IF THAT MAYBE CAME
MICHELLE. THAT COULD BE A VERY
EXPENSIVE PROPOSITION. AND WE
DEBATED SOME OF THIS IN THE
SENATE HEALTH COMMITTEE. AND I
KNOW THAT THERE HAVE BEEN
DOLLARS NOT PROPERLY TRACKED
WASTED ON SPENT. BUT IF WE LOOK
AT SOME ANALOG OUT THERE SO YOU
HAVE A DISABILITY OF A DIFFERENT
SORT NOT FROM A SEVERE MENTAL
ILLNESS SAY AN INTELLECTUAL OR
DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITY HERE IN
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA. THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA GUARANTEES
THAT YOU WILL HAVE CARE NOW IT'S
UP NOT ALWAYS THE BEST CARE AND
WE KNOW THERE CHALLENGES WITH
OUR REGIONAL CENTERS. BUT THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA. WILL
GUARANTEE YOU. UNDER THE LPS ACT
. BUT IF YOU HAVE AN
INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENTAL
DISABILITY THAT WAS DIAGNOSED AT
THAT AGE YOU WILL HAVE ACCESS TO
THAT CARE. BUT IF IN YOUR
TWENTIES. YOU HAVE. MENTAL
ILLNESS THAT IS SPARKED
SOMETIMES BY SUBSTANCE USE
DISORDERS SOMETIMES BY LATENT.
PARANOID SCHIZOPHRENIA WE KNOW
THAT THESE COME THESE THESE
ILLNESSES COME ON LATER IN LIFE
AND IT EVADES THE SYSTEM AS A
RESULT. AND SO FULLER LEFT
WITHOUT ANY ANYONE TO BACK THEM
UP. WITHOUT THE GOVERNMENT
BEHIND THEM AND SO YOU KNOW I'M
A I'M A PROUD CO AUTHOR THIS
MEASURE BECAUSE THIS IS AN
INDISPENSABLE PIECE OF THE
PUZZLE. BUT I HOPE THAT. AS WE
GO THROUGH OUR LEGISLATING THIS
YEAR AND I'M I'M WORKING WITH
THE SENATOR. FROM STOCKTON ON
WHAT I BELIEVE IS A CRITICAL
COROLLARY TO THIS. WHICH IS TO
ACTUALLY PROVIDE A RIGHT TO
TREATMENT IN THIS PROCESS TO
GUARANTEE THAT RIGHT. TO THE
HOUSING THAT GOES ALONG WITH IT
INTO THE TREATMENT. SO THAT WHEN
THE BUDGET CYCLE IS NOT GOOD.
AND WE DON'T HAVE A SURPLUS. AND
WE DON'T HAVE ONE TIME FUNDING
TO THROW BEHAVIORAL HEALTH
INFRASTRUCTURE EVEN THEN WE WILL
BE THERE FOR YOU. AND MAYBE IF
WE CAN START TO BRIDGE THAT
DIVIDE. THOSE WHO HAVE CONCERNS
THOSE WHO WORRY ABOUT RIGHTS
BEING COMPROMISE WILL START TO
TRUST US. AND MORE IMPORTANTLY
PEOPLE ON THE STREETS. WHO ARE
LITERALLY DYING. FIVE PEOPLE A
DAY LAST YEAR AND L. A. COUNTY
LOW LITERALLY DYING ON OUR
DOORSTEPS. THE MORAL DEBT WE OWE
THOSE PEOPLE WILL SOON BE
REPAIRED SO I THINK WE CAN'T
AFFORD NOT TO MAKE MENTAL HEALTH
CARE A BASIC HUMAN RIGHT. AND
WITH THAT HOPEFUL. HOPEFUL
VISION THAT WE CAN ET THERE AS
FOR RIVAL THANK YOU CENTER CERN
CENTER DOLLY. THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT MEMBERS I RISE- I'M
GONNA SUPPORT THE BILL TODAY.
AND- BUT SIR SIXTEEN YEARS ON
THE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
AND ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS I
RAN FOR THE LEGISLATURE IS
BECAUSE OF UNFUNDED MANDATES
THAT COME DOWN. TO THE CAMP. AB
ONE OH NINE. THOSE TYPES OF
PROGRAMS I KNOW THERE'S MONEY IN
THE BUDGET I HAVE GREAT RESPECT
FOR BOTH SENATORS THAT ARE
WORKING ON THIS BILL- AND I JUST
WANT TO. JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT TOM THAT WE COMMUNICATE
WITH THE COUNTY THEY'RE THE ONES
THAT ARE REALLY GOING TO BE IN
THE SERVICES AT THE END OF THE
DAY. AND THEY THE ONE SIZE FITS
ALL DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU'RE IN
WHY RICA CALIFORNIA THE MOST
SOUTHERN. COUN NORTHERN TOWN OR
SAN DIEGO THERE ARE HOMELESS
PEOPLE AND SCHIZOPHRENIA AND
THESE ISSUES ACROSS OUR STATE.
BUT WHAT WORKS IN SISKIYOU
COUNTY OR MODOC COUNTY MAYBE
LOOK A LOT DIFFERENT THAN IT
DOES IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY OR SAN
FRANCISCO COUNTY. SO I JUST WANT
TO. WANT TO REACH OUT AND SAY.
YOU KNOW. WE NEED TO COMMUNICATE
WITH THOSE FOLKS BECAUSE AT THE
END OF DAY THEY'RE THE ONES THAT
ARE REALLY GOING TO BE
DELIVERING THE SERVICES AND
THERE ARE A LOT OF. ONE SIZE
DOESN'T FIT ALL IN CALIFORNIA SO
I WILL BE SUPPORTING THE BILL
THIS IS NOT EASY. AS YOU'VE
HEARD MANY MEMBERS ARE. ARE
TALKING ON THIS BILL TODAY. THIS
IS NOT GONNA BE EASY AND IT AND
WE NEED TO BE ABLE TO.
ACKNOWLEDGE THE FACT THAT WHEN
WE DO IT WRONG WE NEED TO GO
BACK AND REVISIT IT. AND MAKE IT
RIGHT BECAUSE- WE'RE GONNA LEARN
ALONG THEWAY THIS IS NOT
SOMETHING WE GOT INTO A- FIGHT.
IT'S NOT SOMETHING WE'RE GOING
TO GET OUT OF. ANY TIME SOON.
AND THERE ARE MANY ISSUES. I
PRAY TO GOD THAT THE- BIG THAT
HE INTERVENES BECAUSE A LOT OF
THIS IS JUST- EVIL. AND DRUG
ADDITION DICTION- HAS TO BE
ADDRESSED THEY KEPT THEY HAVE TO
BE CLEAN AND SOBER BEFORE WE CAN
ACTUALLY START. A TRADITION
THOSE IF YOU VISITED ANY OF
YOUR- OF YOUR COUNTY FACILITIES.
I'M SURE YOU'RE AWARE THAT- A
LOT OF TIMES THE REASON THEY
DON'T GOING TO SHELTERS BECAUSE
THERE ARE PEOPLE IN THE SHELTERS
THAT ARE. THAT ARE ABUSING THEM
WORSE THAN BEING OUT UNDER THE
BRIDGE WHERE THEY FEEL SAFE.
THAT'S A FACT. AND WE'RE GONNA
HAVE TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO.
NAVIGATE THAT SO I WOULD LOOK
FORWARD TO WORKING WITH. A BOTH
THE COLLEAGUES- THAT I KNOW THAT
TO. THIS THE SENATOR FROM
STOCKTON WE CAME IN TOGETHER
WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THESE
ISSUES. FOR TOO LONG. THAT BUT I
LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING HOW THIS
LEGISLATION WORKSHOP AND I WILL
BE SUPPORTING. SB THIRTEEN
THIRTY EIGHT TODAY. THANK YOU
CENTER DOLLY SEEING NO FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE CENTER I'M
BURKE YOU MAY CLOSE. THANK YOU
MADAM PRESIDENT COLLEAGUES-
THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE PAIN
OF YOUR OWN PERSONAL LIVED
EXPERIENCE I BEGIN THIS BY-
TALKING ABOUT ANECDOTE. THAT IS
OF MY OWN LIVED EXPERIENCE-
CONCERNING A FAMILY MEMBER THERE
ARE CALIFORNIANS RIGHT NOW AT
FIVE THIRTY TWO. ON WEDNESDAY
THEY'RE LOOKING FOR LOVED ONES
THEY CAN'T FIND THEM. AND
THEY'RE LOOKING BECAUSE THEY
DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. BECAUSE
THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO THEY
DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIND THEM
HELP- WE DON'T LOOK FOR OUR
LOVED ONE ANYMORE BECAUSE
THERE'S ACTUALLY NO NEED TO- BUT
I'M I'M HOPEFUL IN WHAT GIVES ME
INCREDIBLE HOPE. IS THE BREADTH
AND SCOPE. OF THE SUPPORT FROM
OUR COLLEAGUES MENLO PARK LOS
ANGELES TO TAKE HEMA TO LAGUNA
MIGUEL THE FRESNO. THAT
THREATENS SUPPORT THAT DEPTH OF
SUPPORT GIVES ME HOPE DO WE HAVE
WORK TO DO WE OBVIOUSLY HAVE
WORK TO DO DO WE HAVE CONCERNS
ABOUT FOR EXAMPLE HOUSING
OBVIOUSLY WE DO ABOUT MAKING
SURE THE COUNTIES CAN SUPPLY THE
SUPPORT THAT THIS BILL REQUIRES
THIS BILL CALLS FOR OF COURSE WE
HAVE THOSE CONCERNS. BUT I DO
THINK THAT WE HAVE THIS UNIQUE
OPPORTUNITY THIS UNIQUE. TIME WE
HAVE THE RESOURCES IN THE
COLLECTIVE. POLITICAL WILL TO
MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE NOT JUST
BY PARTISAN BUT ACROSS THE
SPECTRUM AND SO- I AM INCREDIBLY
HOPEFUL AND INCREDIBLY GRATEFUL

EXCELLENT SENATOR ALAN WE'RE
GOING TO YOU IT IS SIX OH FIVE.
MEMBERS WE'RE GOING TO START
WITH FILE ITEM FIFTY ONE SENATOR
ALAN MADAM SECRETARY PLEASE READ
SENATE BILL TWELVE NINETY BY
SENATOR ALLEN AN ACT RELATING TO
SIDEWALK VENDORS. SENATOR ALAN.
HI MEMBERS- ONE OF THE ONE OF
THE- CHALLENGES ASSOCIATED WITH-
BEING HERE FOR A LITTLE LONGER
IS THAT YOU VOTE ON BILLS AND
THEN- FEL THE NEED TO ADDRESS
SOME OF THE CHALLENGES
ASSOCIATED WITH THOSE POLICIES.
I ACCUSE YESTERDAY SUPPORTED SB
NINE FORTY SIX WHICH IS OUR
COLLEAGUE COMMISSIONER LARA'S
BILL TO LEGALIZE SIDEWALK
VENDING I THINK IT'S BROUGHT A
LOT OF WONDERFUL THINGS TO OUR
STATE GREAT FOOD ON THE STREETS.
ARE I. AND A COURSE. AN
IMPORTANT PATH IMPORTANT PATH
FOR THE ENTREPRENEURS MOST OF
THEM FROM IMMIGRANT FAMILIES WHO
HAVE FOUND A WAY TO MAKE SOME
MONEY AND BUILD A LIFE FOR
THEMSELVES BY SELLING FOOD ON
THE STREETS. HI THERE THERE
THERE HAVE BEEN TWO. MAJOR
ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS
PROGRAM ONE IS THAT IT'S TOO
HARD TO GET A PERMIT. I THE
RULES THAT WERE NEGOTIATED IN
THE FIRST BILL SB NINE FORTY
SIX. I ULTIMATELY LEFT THE FOOD
SAFETY STANDARDS UP TO BASICALLY
FOOD TRUCK STANDARDS. WHICH IS
SOMETHING THAT THE AVERAGE FOOD
CART SIMPLY CAN'T MEET. LOTS OF
COUNTIES HAD MADE IT TOO
DIFFICULT TO GET PERMITS. AND
YOU HAVE A LOT OF FOLKS WHO ARE
KIND OF OPERATING IN THE
TWILIGHT ZONE. ARE IN TERMS OF
PERMITS. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT
OUR COLLEAGUE FROM LONG BEACH IS
ADDRESSING WITH HER SB NINE
SEVENTY TWO. IT'S A BILL THAT I
SUPPORT WE'LL BE TALKING ABOUT
IT I BELIEVE TOMORROW. I'M THE
OTHER PROBLEM WITH THIS I
WATCHED ANY PROGRAM HAS BEEN. A
RELATIVELY LIMITED. A
PROBLEMATIC IN A FEW KEY CITIES
IN OUR STATE. THESE ARE CITIES
THAT HAVE TYPICALLY VERY HIGH
TOURISM. FULLER SITES BALBOA
PARK IN SAN DIEGO EMBARCADERO
PIER THIRTY NINE AREA IN SAN
FRANCISCO THE SANTA MONICA PIER.
WHERE YOU'VE GOT A LOT OF
VENDORS WHO COME TOGETHER. AND
THEY'VE BEEN CHALLENGES IN
TRYING TO MANAGE AND MAINTAIN.
AND IN THE CASE OF THE PIER.
WE'VE GOT FOLKS WITH OPEN FLAMES
PEOPLE POURING GREASE INTO THE
WATER THIS IS A RELATIVELY SMALL
PORTION OF THE VENDOR COMMUNITY-
BUT- NUMBER CITIES A SAID HEY
WE'VE GOT A WE'VE GOT TO HAVE
SOME MORE TOOLS. TO HOLD. THOSE
FOLKS WHO ARE REALLY UNWILLING
TO COMPLY WITH THE RULES
ACCOUNTABLE. SO THAT'S WHERE
THIS BILL COMES FROM. I'M NOT
WEDDED TO THE MECHANISMS N THIS
BILL I IF I WOULD HAVE PREDICTED
WOULD BE IT'LL PROBABLY CHANGE
QUITE A BIT. I'M I'M VERY
COMMITTED TO WORKING WITH THE
ADVOCATES ARE WHO ARE I THINK
VERY RIGHTEOUSLY TRYING TO HELP
PROVIDE MORE AVENUES FOR PEOPLE
TO BUILD UP A LIFE FOR
THEMSELVES THROUGH SIDEWALK
VENDING. I'M ALSO TRYING TO
FIGURE OUT A WAY TO HELP
COMMUNITIES LIKE MINE THE CITY
SANTA MONICA. HANDLE THIS
DIFFICULT SITUATION THAT THEY
FIND THEMSELVES IN AT THE PIER.
SO THIS IS THE CHALLENGE. ARE
THAT I'M TRYING TO ADDRESS FOR
THIS BILL. IT'S BEEN VERY
LIMITED IN COMMITTEE. AND IN THE
GOVERNOR FIVE COMMITTEE- THERE
ARE A SET OF RULES THAT HAVE TO
BE PUT INTO A SET OF
CIRCUMSTANCES THAT WE PUT IN
PLACE FOR TWO EVEN KICK IN. I
ALSO CALLS FOR A STUDY. TO LOOK
AT THE ISSUES AND CHALLENGES OF
NONCOMPLIANCE SOCI LOCAL
SIDEWALK VENDING. I'M HOPEFUL
THAT. THROUGH THE COURSE OF THIS
LEGISLATIVE. SESSION WILL BE
ABLE TO COME TO A SERIES OF
SOLUTIONS WHERE WE EXPAND ACCESS
TO PERMITS. THAT'S AT THE HEART
OF. SENATORS OFFICES BILL- AT
BUT WE DO AND WE DO SO IN A WAY
THAT WILL WORK. FOR COMMUNITIES
AND ALSO WORK FOR CONSUMERS AND
WORK FOR IMMIGRANT FAMILIES WHO
ARE TRYING TO BUILD. LIVES FOR
THEMSELVES. THROUGH THIS AT THE
SIDEWALK VENDING. AND SO I ASK
YOU TO GIVE ME THE OPPORTUNITY
WORKING ON THIS IS NOT AN EASY.
ISSUE HI AND- ASPIRIN ABOUT.
THANK YOU CENTER ALAN SENATOR
GONZALEZ. THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT AND- MEMBERS I WANT TO
THANK MY COLLEAGUE FROM SANTA
MONICA I RESPECT HIM DEARLY BUT
I REALLY DISAGREE WITH HIS
APPROACH INNISFAIL- WE WILL TALK
ABOUT A SEPARATE BILL TOMORROW
OF COURSE THAT IS NOT THE BILL
THAT IS ON THE FLOOR CURRENTLY
BUT WITH THIS BILL I AM
COMMITTED TO COMMIT CONTINUING
TO WORK WITH HIM. BUT ALTHOUGH A
LOT OF- WHAT WE'VE SEEN SO FAR
WE DON'T EVEN KNOW I MEAN
THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF BLAME PUT
ON WHAT WE THINK IS ON PERMITTED
VENDORS WERE NOT SURE THAT THAT
DATA IS NOT AVAILABLE NO IDEA
THAT. A LOT. BUT LOCALS CAN DO
TO CURB A LOT OF THE ISSUES THAT
MAY BE HAPPENING IN CERTAIN
CITIES- AND THEY'RE NOT DOING
IT. AND SO I TAKE SORT OF- HEART
TO THE FACT THAT THESE ISSUES
ARE HAPPENING BUT I ALSO WANT TO
ENCOURAGE THE LOCALS AND DO
EVERYTHING THAT I CAN'T TO
ENCOURAGE LOCALS TO SEPARATE THE
ISSUE THAT. AT THE END OF THE
DAY WE WANT MICRO BUSINESSES TO
BE ABLE TO SUCCEED WE WANT TO
ENSURE THAT WE INCLUDE WE HAVE A
VERY INCLUSIVE ECONOMY THAT
INCLUDES EVERYBODY. WHETHER
THEY'RE- UNDOCUMENTED OR NOT
WHETHER THEY YOU KNOW WHEREVER
THEY COME FROM IF THEY'RE
SELLING THESE STREET FOOD- ITEMS
THAT ARE DELICIOUS AND EVERYONE
WANTS TO ENJOY. THIS THIS
ECONOMY HAS TO BE AS INCLUSIVE
AS POSSIBLE WE HAVE TO TREAT
MICRO BUSINESSES SIMILAR TO WHAT
WE TREAT HOW WE TREAT OUR SMALL
BUSINESSES ARE BRICK AND MORTAR
BUSINESSES THAT ARE ALSO. DOING
EVERYTHING THAT THEY CAN TO
SURVIVE SO. I RESPECT MY
COLLEAGUE I RESPECT WERE- HE'S
GOING WITH- YOU KNOW WORKING
WITH ME I JUST VEHEMENTLY IN OUR
DISAGREE WITH WITH THIS APPROACH
AND I. BE VOTING NO ON THIS BUT
I AM COMMITTED TO CONTINUE
WORKING ON IN A DIFFERENT MANNER
TO ENSURE THAT WE GET THIS RIGHT
SO I WANT TO. THANK YOU FOR
THAT. THANK YOU CENTER GONZALEZ
CENTER WIENER. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH- MADAM PRESIDENT I WANT TO
THANK- THE AUTHOR FOR TAKING ON-
AND INCREDIBLY. DIFFICULT MMHM
AT ISSUE WHERE- THERE IS IT'S
HARD TO SURVIVE. THE TACKLE THIS
PROBLEM AND TO FIND AN EFFECTIVE
AND EQUITABLE WAY- TO ADDRESS IT
AND THE AUTHOR AS WELL CENTER
FROM LONG BEACH AND I HAVE BEEN
HAVING. CONVERSATIONS AND WE'VE
BEEN TALKING TO THE VARIOUS
CITIES THAT ARE SORT OF
STRUGGLING WITH THE ISSUE THAT A
BIG ZOOM I KNOW WE'RE GONNA HAVE
SOME ADDITIONAL MEETINGS- AND I
AM SOMEONE RIGHT VERY VERY
STRONGLY SUPPORTED SB NINE FORTY
SIX. ON A IF THAT WAS THE
CORRECT NUMBER- AND I THINK IT'S
SO IMPORTANT THAT WE SUPPORT-
THESE- THESE MICRO BUSINESSES
AND- SUPPORTING CENTER FROM LONG
BEACH IS A BILL TO REALLY TRY TO
IMPROVE THE PERMITTING PROCESS
AND SOME OF THE CODES THAT
THESE. BUSINESSES HAVE AN EASIER
PATH- TO GET A PERMIT AND BECOME
LEGAL BECAUSE YOU CAN SAY HELLO
WE DEMAND YOU BE LEGAL ROOMMATE
REALLY HARD FOR YOU TO GET THE
PERMIT- AND- AND THIS BILL AS I
SETTING COMMITTEE. AND I THINK
IT'S THE AUTHORIZING KNOWLEDGE.
IT'S GOING TO NEED. SOME MORE
WORK AND I THINK THE TERM YOU
KNOW THERE MAY BE A DIFFERENT OR
BETTER. PATH FOR BUT I THINK
IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT FOR THIS.
CONVERSATION TO CONTINUE OVER
THE SUMMER SO WE CAN TRY TO COME
TO A RESOLUTION THIS BILL MAY OR
MAY NOT BE ENACTED. IN THE- BUT
I DO THINK THE CONVERSATION IS A
CONTINUE. AND WHAT I KNOW IS IN
SAN FRANCISCO. ON WHICH IS A-
TEMAS WHO HAS ALWAYS BEEN A TEAM
MORE OPEN TO THESE MICRO
BUSINESSES AND STREET VENDORS
AND OTHER CITIES HAVE BEEN. SAN
FRANCISCO HAS IMPLEMENTED- A
PERMANENT PROGRAM SERVICES WAS
NOT IN ANY WAY A CITY THAT'S
HOSTILE- TO STREET VENDING- BUT
THERE HAVE BEEN SOME REAL
CHALLENGES- DIVE THE CITY. ARE
SMALL BUSINESSES AND A PERMANENT
VENDORS HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING-
AND SO I WANTED TO CONVERSATION
CONTINUE AND I'LL BE SUPPORTING
THE LEGISLATION TODAY. THANK YOU
CENTER WIENER CENTER NIELSEN.
SORRY. BUT YOUR MIKE DOWN THANK
YOU CENTER DRAWS SO. YES ARE.
YOU NON IN ADDITION TO
EVERYTHING THAT'S THAT'S BEEN
SET HERE- THESE ARE VERY
ECONOMICALLY VULNERABLE STREET
VENDORS. AND I KNOW THE AUTHOR
ACKNOWLEDGES THAT BUT- WE NEED
TO SHOW THAT. WE'RE GOING TO DO
SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO
ECONOMICALLY VULNERABLE VENDORS
OTHER THAN WHAT SORT OF
TRADITIONALLY- WE GET- WE GET
HIT HIT WITH OR WE WANNA GET
WITH WHICH IS MAKING IT HARDER
FOR THEM- WE JUST DID A WHOLE
SLEW AND I THINK THERE'S MORE TO
COME ON CANNABIS BUSINESSES.
WE'VE DONE WE ARE INVESTING A
TON OF MONEY WERE LOWERING THEIR
TAXES WE'RE GIVING THEM WE'RE
INVESTING IN THEM TO BE ABLE TO
PICK UP THEIR BUSINESSES WHETHER
IT'S FROM CULTIVATION ALL THE
WAY TO THE RETAIL IN. AND THAT'S
A GOOD THING NGUYEN SAY PILE.
THE PUNISHMENT WOULDN'T SAY THAT
WE SAID LET'S DO THIS DIFFERENT
APPROACH TO BUSINESSES THEY ARE
BUSINESSES THEY'RE JUST REALLY
POOR TRYING TO MAKE ENOUGH. FOR
THEM AND THEIR FAMILIES TO GET
BY SO AN ADDITIONAL LAYER OF
FINES. MAY MAKE YOU KNOW SOME
FOLKS- YOU KNOW FIELD OKAY WE'RE
TAKING THE RIGHT APPROACH BUT
YOU'RE NOT. AND I REALLY FEEL
STRONGLY ABOUT THIS I THINK THAT
THE APPROACH BY- THE AUTHOR OF
SB NINE SEVENTY TWO IS- THE
BETTER MORE POSITIVE APPROACH.
IS BEING NINE SEVENTY TWO IS A
LATINO **** AS A PRIORITY- WE
THINK THAT IT'S MAKING THE KINDS
OF CHANGES. TO THE REGULATIONS
THAT COULD BE AND SHOULD BE.
MADE AND WE NEED TO LOOK AT
THESE VENDORS AS A RECOGNIZED
ECONOMIC PART SECTOR. THEY ARE
NOT THESE CRIMINALS THAT WE HAD
TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO HOW TO
BRUSH ASIDE AND I DO THINK THAT.
THAT HAPPENS IN REAL IN SOME OF
THE LOCAL AREAS SO- I REALLY.
URGE THE- THE AUTHOR TWO. YOU
KNOW LET'S BOMB WE DO THIS LET'S
RESET THIS BECAUSE THIS IS NOT
THE RIGHT APPROACH THIS IS NOT
BEEN IS NOT GIVING THE APPROACH
THAT THIS LEGISLATURE PASSED
JUST A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO NOT
GIVEN THE TIME NEEDED FOR THAT
APPROACH TO WORK- AND I WOULD
JUST SAY FINALLY YOU KNOW THOSE
STREET VENDORS THEY KNOW WHAT'S
FAIR. THEY KNOW WHAT TO DO LET'S
INCLUDE THEM NOT AS ADVERSARIES
THAT ARE DOING SOMETHING WRONG
BUT LET'S INCLUDE THEM TO FIND
THE RIGHT SOLUTIONS. THANK YOU
CENTER DRAWS- CENTER GLAZER.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT AND
MEMBERS AND IN THAT GREAT
TRADITION OF THE SENATE- THAT
LOVES TO BAIT AND DIFFERENT
VIEWS- AND I SHARE A DIFFERENT
VIEW A DIFFERENT VOICE THAT HAS
BEEN SHARED SO FAR IN THIS
CONVERSATION I OPPOSE THE
ORIGINAL UNDERLINE BILL THAT
THIS BILL SEEKS TO CORRECT WHY
WAS THAT WAS IT ANTI STREET
VENDOR OF COURSE NOT. BOB WAS
ABOUT. JUSTLY TOOK AWAY LOCAL
CONTROL FROM LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
TO BE ABLE TO REGULATE. THE
HEALTH AND SAFETY OF THEIR
COMMUNITY. AND SO NOW WE HAVE A
PROBLEM THAT CENTER ALLEN IS
TRYING TO CONSTRUCTIVELY ADDRESS
BUT KEEP THIS IN MIND. YEAH WE
HAVE SMALL BUSINESSES IN OUR
COMMUNITY THAT THAT SERVE FOOD
AND HAD PRODUCT THEY GO THROUGH
ALL THE LICENSING THEY HAVE ALL
THE OVERHEAD OBLIGATIONS. AND
WALL STREET VENDING IS A
WONDERFUL ADDITION TO OUR
COMMUNITY THAT'S UNREGULATED
THEY CAN STEP IN AND TAKE THE-
THE- THE- KANEMI AWAY FROM THOSE
BRICK AND MORTARS THAT WE HAVE
FOLLOWED ALL THE RULES SO THAT'S
THE DILEMMA. AND WHEN YOU TAKE
AWAY LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ABILITY
TO MAKE THESE THOUGHTFUL
CHOICES. IN A COMMUNITY SETTING
WITH PUBLIC HEARINGS AND PUBLIC
INPUT IN THE REST THEN WE'RE
LEFT WITH THE STATE NOW BECAUSE
WE CREATED THIS ONE SIZE FITS
ALL. TRYING TO FIND A CORRECTIVE
ACTION WHICH IS LEGISLATION
ATTEMPTS TO ADVANCE AND WALL
THERE THE DEBATE IS GOING TO BE
IN THE SPACE THAT WE CREATED.
AND I WISH WE COULD GO BACKWARDS
A LITTLE BIT ON IT WHICH I KNOW
IS A DIFFERENT VIEW I THINK THIS
BILL IS A CONSTRUCTIVE STEP
FORWARD AND ALL SUPPORT IT
TODAY. THANK YOU SENATOR GLAZERS
CENTER CABALLERO. THANK YOU
MADAM PRESIDENT WELL YOU KNOW
WHAT- THIS IS A REALLY GOOD
EXAMPLE OF HOW- ONE. SIZE
DOESN'T FIT ALL- I AM VERY LUCKY
I GUESS BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE BIG
ENTERTAINMENT VENUES I DON'T
HAVE PLACES THAT TOURISTS WANT
TO GO I DON'T I DON'T HAVE BEEN
USE WHERE THERE'S LOTS OF PEOPLE
THAT SHOW UP. AND AND EXPECT TO
GET IN AND OUT AND HAVE A GOOD
TIME- CHAU ICING I. SAT ON THE
CITY COUNCIL WHEN WE ADOPTED A
BENDER ORDINANCE AND- I'M I'M
REALLY PROUD TO SAY THAT IN OUR
COMMUNITY- WE WELCOME THEM WITH
OPEN ARMS AND MADE IT MADE IT
POSSIBLE FOR THEM TO SET UP. A
LEGAL SHOP AND NOT TO IMPACT THE
BUSINESSES THAT WERE THE BRICK
AND MORTAR BUSINESSES- AND WE
FIGURED OUT A WAY TO BE ABLE TO
DO IT. ONE SIZE DOESN'T FIT ALL
SO I SAT IS THE CHAIR OF
GOVERNANCE AND FINANCE WE HEARD
THIS BILL. AND THE CHALLENGES IS
THERE ARE SOME PARTS OF THE
COMMUNITY- AND SOME PARTS OF
CALIFORNIA. BAD THAT HOST HUGE
CROWDS WHERE LOTS OF PEOPLE AND
I'M TALKING TEN THOUSAND PEOPLE
SHOW UP AND THEY WANT TO BE ABLE
TO. ACCESS GET IN GET OUT AND
SOME OF THOSE PEOPLE ARE
DISABLED. SOME OF THEM- HAVE
NEEDS TO BE ABLE TO USE THE
SIDEWALKS AND- AND FOR THERE NOT
TO BE. FOOD THROWN OUT ON THE ON
THE GROUND OR OIL IT'S DUMPED-
OR- KING. THAT THE ACCESS
BECAUSE THEY JUST WANTED TO TAKE
UP AS MUCH SPACE AS POSSIBLE.
AND I'M SENSITIVE TO THAT ISSUE-
BECAUSE WE ALL GO TO THOSE
VENUES AS WELL WE WANT TO ENJOY
A FISHERMAN'S WHARF WE WANT TO
ENJOY GOING TO A RAMS GAME. WE
WANT TO BE ABLE TO GO TO A
GIANTS GAME AND ALL OF THOSE
VENUES REQUIRES SOME ORDER
AROUND THE VENUE. AND THAT'S
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS AND SO I WENT
I REALLY WANT TO RECOGNIZE THE
HARD WORK- THAT THE GOOD SENATOR
FROM SANTA MONICA IS DOING IS
TRYING TO DO WHICH IS TO LISTEN
TO ALL VOICES TO FIGURE OUT. HOW
CAN WE BE SUPPORTIVE OF LOCAL
GOVERNMENT IS TRYING TO MAINTAIN
THE SECURITY AND THE SAFETY. AND
SOME INDIVIDUALS AND IT'S NOT
ALL OF THEM BUT SOME INDIVIDUALS
BELIEVE THEY DON'T HAVE TO
FOLLOW THE RULES. BECAUSE
THEY'RE THEY THEY WILL DUMP COST
CHEMICALS IN THE OCEAN OR DUBBED
CAUSTIC CHEMICALS ON THE STREET.
OR THEY HAVE OPEN FLAMES ARE
REALLY DANGEROUS. JUST A NUMBER
OF THINGS SO I IT'S NOT EASY TO
SOLVE. IT I SUPPORTED THE BILL
IN COMMITTEE IN A SUPPORT IT
MOVING FORWARD BECAUSE WE NEED
TO COME UP WITH THAT. A LOGICAL
FRAMEWORK THAT ALLOWS LOCAL
GOVERNMENT TO BE ABLE TO DO WHAT
THEY DO BEST WHICH IS TO KEEP
THEIR CITIZENS AND PEOPLE
VISITING THE COMMUNITY SAFE. BUT
ALSO ALLOW THE VENDORS TO BE
ABLE TO MAKE A LIVING. IF THEY
COMPLY WITH THE RULES. AND SO I
THINK IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO
WE'RE GOING TO BE CONSIDERING
ANOTHER BILL. WHICH DID NOT GO
THROUGH MY COMMITTEE- AS WELL
THAT WOULD PROVIDE A FRAMEWORK
FOR THEM TO BE ABLE TO GET
PERMITS. THAT MAY BE- THEY
HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO GET FROM
SOME OF THE COUNTIES BUT ON THIS
THIS IS NOT EASY THIS IS NOT
EASY TO DO BECAUSE YOU'RE TRYING
TO THREAD THE NEEDLE AND TO BE
RESPECTFUL OF EVERYBODY. SO I
URGE A NO VOTE ON THIS BILL
TODAY. THINKCENTRE CABALLERO
CENTERING CAL SKI. A MADAM
PRESIDENT I. SUPPORTED S. B.
NINE FOUR SIX AND- I THINK I
UNDERSTAND. THE GOAL OF S. B.
NINE SEVEN TWO WHICH IS NOT
BEFORE US WHICH IS. THIS WITH
THE PERMITTING THAT THAT THE
HEALTH SIDE. IS THE
ENVIRONMENTAL CHALLENGES OF THE
STREET VENDORS. WIDESPREAD OR IS
IT ISOLATED IS IT DEPENDING ON
THE HISTORIC NATURE OF THE AREA
WHERE THE FUNDING IS GOING ON
CAN YOU GIVE ME SOME IDEA OF
THE- THE SIZE OF THIS THE
PROBLEM THAT. THE BILL ATTEMPTS
TO A- FIX THEIR ACCOUNTS IS AT A
QUESTION YES IT WAS CENTER AL WE
TAKE A QUESTION YEAH THESE ARE
SEAT- SO. AS SEATED THIS IS A
PROBLEM THAT IT THAT IS VERY
SERIOUS BUT IN A FEW PLACES IN
THE STATE IT'S NOT A PART OF THE
CHALLENGE HERE IS THAT MANY OF
YOU. DON'T SEE IT DON'T DON'T
HAVE THIS PROBLEM IN YOUR
DISTRICTS ARE BUT THERE THERE'S
SOMETHING ABOUT THE UNIQUE
CIRCUMSTANCES OF A PLACE LIKE
THE SANTA MONICA PIER FOR
EXAMPLE THAT BRINGS IN A LOT OF
TERRORISTS WHERE PEOPLE CAN MAKE
A LOT OF MONEY OFF OF SELLING.
IT'S IN A CONFINED SPACE WE'VE
GOT HISTORIC STRUCTURE. THAT'S
RIGHT BY THE OCEAN THERE ARE A
FEW OTHER PLACES AROUND THE
STATE THAT HAVE A SIMILAR
SITUATION BALBOA PARK AND WE
TALKED ABOUT- EMBARCADERO PIER
THIRTY NINE IN SAN FRANCISCO A
COUPLE OTHER PLACES AROUND THE
STATE- BUT IT IS A LIMIT IT'S
GEOGRAPHICALLY LIMITED- I DO
KNOW- AND WE WILL BE DISCUSS
THIS TOMORROW THE ENVIRONMENTAL
HEALTH OFFICERS- DO YOU HAVE.
REAL PROBLEMS WITH. THE BOTH OF
THE CURRENT LAW AND ALSO THE
TRAJECTORY OF SOME OF WHAT. IS
BEING WORKED ON- IN IN SB NINE
SEP SURE WE'LL DISCUSS THAT
TOMORROW AND I WAS JUST AS THIS
GOES FORWARD. ADEN BECAUSE OF
THE ISSUES THAT WE'VE BEEN
TALKING ABOUT GREECE- OPEN
FLAMES- SACHA. SOUP MADAM
PRESIDENT YES I'M AWAKE I'LL SKI
WITHOUT QUESTION SO- THE
ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN THAT
YOU'RE HOPING TO ADDRESS HERE IS
NOT. HEALTH FOOD FOOD HEALTH
RELATED THAT THE ENDING AND
WHAT'S BEING SERVED AND ALL
THAT. IT'S THE WASTE OR THE- ARM
THE DANGER. VERSUS DANGER THE
RIGHT WORDS THAT THEY MAY POSE
TO SOME OF THESE WOODEN PIERS.
OR THE AFTERMATH OF AFTER THE
FOOD'S BEEN CONSUMING THE
VENDORS HAVE GONE AWAY. I MEAN
BASICALLY JUST HAVE TO GET UP ON
WHO WE'RE TALKING TO BILLS OF.
SB NICE TO MEET YOU WENT TO THE
HEALTH COMMITTEE. AND THE CHAIR
I WORKED VERY CLOSELY WITH THE
AUTHOR TO ADDRESS. THE
OUTSTANDING FOOD SAFETY
CONCERNS. I BELIEVE THAT AT
LEAST WITH REGARDS TO THAT
ISSUE. PEOPLE ARE FEELING
COMFORTABLE. WITH WITH OUR
FRIENDS BILL. CENTER BY CAL SKI
GOOD OKAY MOVING ON TO CENTER
RUBIO. NOPE YOU'RE GOOD FIVE
MEMBERS CENTER NIELSEN. NOT A
PRIVILEGE ON THE SENATE THE
RECENT. QUESTION OF WHERE THIS
PROBLEM THEY PROVOKE ME TO
DECIDE TO PUT MY CUP. IT'S KIND
OF INTERESTING SAY WHAT PEOPLE
WILL ABOUT RURAL COUNTIES IN
RURAL AREAS. THEY ARE FAR MORE
TOLERANT. OF THESE TYPE OF
BUSINESSES THAN OTHER LARGER
URBAN AREAS. WHY THEY'RE CLOSER
TO THE INDIVIDUAL. THE KIDS GO
TO SCHOOL WITH THEM THEY'VE BEEN
RAISED WITHIN THEIR GENERATIONS
. AND THESE ARE ENTERPRISING
INDIVIDUALS. THE AMERICAN DREAM
THERE LIVE IN IT. AND THOSE
VEHICLES A DAY USE THEY'RE NOT
CHEAP. YOU MAYBE GET A JOKER FOR
TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND. BUT

PRESIDENT TODAY AND PRESENTED
SENATE BILL THIRTEEN TWENTY
THREE TO REQUIRED LENDERS IN A
FORECLOSURE PROCEEDING TO HIRE A
REALTOR. AND SELL THE SECURE
PROPERTY OR ITS APPRAISED VALUE
ON A MULTIPLE LISTING SERVICE
THIS IN TURN WOULD PROTECT THAT
HOMEOWNER WHO LOST THEIR
PROPERTY THIS WOULD ALLOW
DEFAULTED HOMEOWNERS TO BE PAID
OUT THEIR FULL SAVINGS IN THEIR
EQUITY CAN YOU IMAGINE. THE
OTHER DAY WE HAD A WITNESS HERE
WHO HAD A SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND
DOLLAR HOUSE THE BANK GOT THEIR
TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
APPROXIMATELY AND SOMEBODY ELSE
WALKED AWAY WITH THAT EQUITY
LOSS TIME AND TIME AGAIN- AND
AGAIN SO THESE FORECLOSURES. IT
GOT TO BE RE LOOKED AT
FORECLOSURE HOMEOWNERS ARE
NORMALLY DID LOW INCOME AND
OFTEN ELDERLY IMMIGRANT OR
DISABLED MEMBERS OF CALIFORNIA
MOST VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES. FOR
MEMBERS OF THESE COMMUNITIES
THEIR HOME IS OUR ONLY ASSET AND
THE HOME EQUITY IT ONLY LIFETIME
SAVING THE LOSS OF EVEN A SINGLE
DOLLAR OF THIS EQUITY IS
IRREPLACEABLE PUTTING THE FOR
CLOSE HOMER. IN INCREASED RISK
OF POVERTY AND HOMELESSNESS-
SPECIFIC THIS BILL WOULD RECAST
FOR CLOSURE PROVISIONS TO
REQUIRE THAT AN EQUITY SALE OF
PROPERTY UNDER THE POWER OF SALE
BUT MORTGAGE OR DEED OF TRUST.
AND BE OBTAINED BY A LICENSED
REALTOR TO PUBLICLY PROMOTE THE
PROPERTY TO GET THE LARGEST
AMOUNT TO BE GIVEN TO THAT OF
FORECLOSED HOMEOWNER THIS BILL
WOULD AUTHORIZE A TRUSTEE TO
SELL IT WORKING TOGETHER AND I
HAVE MET WITH SEVERAL OF MY
COLLEAGUES. AND WE'VE COME UP
WITH SOME OF THE AMENDMENTS THAT
HAVE BEEN BROUGHT FORWARD I WILL
TAKE THEM TO THE NEXT LEVEL. ONE
OBVIOUSLY IS TO HAVE A THIRD
PARTY LOOK AT THIS AND TO MAKE
SURE THAT THE HOMEOWNER HAS
RECEIVED AMPLIFIED NUMBER OF
DISCLOSURES- NOTICES AND SO AND
EVEN TO THE ABILITY TO POSTPONE
THE PER UPDATE THE- FORECLOSURE.
AND MAYBE UP TO BETWEEN TWENTY
TO UP TO NINETY DAYS TO SAVE
THAT HOMEOWNER. THE
EMBARRASSMENT AND OBVIOUSLY MORE
THAN THAT THE LOSS OF ALL THEIR
EQUITY SO WITH THESE REASONS I
ASK FOR YOUR I. BOATS. THANK YOU
CENTER ARCHULETA OUR DISCUSSION
AND DEBATE WE WILL START WITH
CENTER AMBERG- THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT. OF THE JUST A
QUESTION FOR THE AUTHOR- SO ONE
MOMENT WE TAKE A QUESTION CENTER
CHIRLA YES MA'AM PLEASE PROCEED
SERRA BURKE. IS AS I UNDERSTAND
THE INTENT OF THE BILL THE
INTENT OF THE BILL IS FOR
EXAMPLE LET ME GIVE YOU AN
EXAMPLE WHEN IT WHEN A SENIOR
HAS- SAY- FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND
DOLLARS OF EQUITY IN THE HOME IN
THE MORTGAGE IS TWO HUNDRED
THOUSAND DOLLARS AND THEY ARE.
LAID ON THE MORTGAGE THEN THE
BANK WHICH IS TO FOR CLOSE THE
BANK ONLY IS INTEREST IN GETTING
THEIR TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND
DOLLARS AND DOES THE FIVE
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS. IS
LOST IT'S NOT RETAINED BY THE
BANK RIGHT IT IS NOT RETAINED BY
THE BANK THIS WILL ENSURE THAT
IT GOES TO THAT HOMEOWNER. AND
THAT'S WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO SAVE
THE EQUITY THE BANK WILL ALWAYS
RECEIVE THE MONEY THAT'S DUE BUT
THE HOMEOWNER AND PAST HISTORY
IS LOST. ALL OF THEIR EQUITY
THIS WILL PREVENT THAT. ALL
RIGHT WELL THE QUESTION SECOND
QUESTION THEN TO YOU- IS THAT-
THE BILL CAME THROUGH JUDICIARY
COMMITTEE THERE ARE A NUMBER
SUGGESTED AMENDMENTS- I
UNDERSTAND YOU'RE CONTINUE TO
WORK ON THE BLL ONCE SUGGESTED
AMENDMENT IS FOR EXAMPLE TO HAVE
THE- THE HOMEOWNER. FOR EXAMPLE.
ADVICE THAT THEY'RE GOING TO
LISTED ON MULTIPLE LISTINGS THUS
PROVIDING AN ADDITIONAL THIRTY
DAYS. TO SELL IT BEFORE IT
ACTUALLY GOES TO FORECLOSURE.
AND IF YOU CONSIDER THAT A MA'AM
AND I WILL CONSIDER THAT I'D
LIKE TO SEE THAT. ANYWHERE UP TO
SIXTY TO NINETY DAYS BUT WHAT
WORK ON THAT I'LL CHECK RIGHT.
THAT INCAN INTO CONSIDERATION IT
WILL CENTER I LOOK FORWARD TO
WORKING WITH YOU TO- IT IN THIS
CIRCUMSTANCE THERE'S NOT
NECESSARILY A- BAD ACTOR. BUT
THERE IS A- BIG FOR WHATEVER
REASON THERE IS A POTENTIAL LOSS
OF EQUITY THAT IS A GREAT
CONCERN BUT NOT SOLELY A BAD
ACTORS SO LOOK FORWARD TO
WORKING WITH YOU ON THIS BILL.
IN AND I MIGHT POINT OUT THE
BANKS ARE BACK BAD ACTORS IT'S A
PROCESS AND PROCEDURE THAT IS
THE BAD ACTOR AND WE NEED TO
CLARIFY. CLEAN THIS UP AND I
THINK THIS BILL WILL DO IT. AND
I THANK YOU FOR YOUR QUESTION.
THANK YOU SENATOR UMBERG AND
SENATOR ARCHULETA SENATOR WHITE
HOUSE SKI. MAN PRESIDENT I
STAYED OFF THIS BILL AND
JUDICIARY BECAUSE RUNNING NO. I
WAS A BANKRUPTCY ATTORNEY SO
THESE ARE MY PEOPLE- THAT HAVE
DEFAULTED ON THEIR LOAN. THE
SALE IS TOMORROW AND THEY KNOCK
ON MY DOOR AND SAY. HIT THE
BRAKES SO. THE GOAL. THE AUTHOR
HAS IS. IS ADMIRABLE AND I THINK
THIS MAY BE A GOOD TIME. TO
RETHINK OUR NON JUDICIAL
FORECLOSURE PROCESS. THE NINETY
DAY DEFAULT PERIOD I THINK
EVERYBODY AGREES WITH THAT. BUT
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THIS DEFAULT
OCCURS. AND BOOK. I HAVE SOME
CHALLENGES WITH THE MECHANICS
HAVE AB AB. I'M GOING TO SUPPORT
YOUR BILL TODAY. GIVEN THE- THE
ACTIONS THAT YOU'VE TAKEN YOU'VE
TAKEN BUT I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH
THE MECHANICS. BECAUSE
FUNDAMENTALLY. THE TRUSTEE THIS
TRUSTEE THAT IS DOING THE SALE
HAS ONE JOB AND THAT'S TO SELL.
THE HOUSE THEY'RE NOT EMPLOYEE
TO BE HIGHER REAL ESTATE FOLKS
OR- OR- BE FAIR THEY'RE JUST
HIRED BY THE BANK SO THEIR
LOYALTY IS TO THE BANK SO. I
YOUR INTENT IS GOOD YOU NEED A
SEPARATE PARTY THAT WOULD STEP
IN IN MY MIND THAT WOULD HAVE
ACTED SUPPLY DO SHERRY TO
ASSISTANCE PERSON SOMETIMES WE
CALL THE BANKRUPTCY ATTORNEY BUT
SOMETIMES IT MAY BE SOMEBODY
ELSE. TO DO A SALE BECAUSE I
THINK WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO GET
AT IS THAT. THE LAW A POOR TO
WASTE WE DON'T WANT TO SEE THESE
HOMEOWNERS LOSE THREE HUNDRED
THOUSAND DOLLARS WITH A VICTORY
IN THEIR HOME I DON'T WANT TO
SEE THE HOMEOWNERS LOSE THE
HOME. RIGHT SO I'M GOING TO WHAT
RELUCTANCE I'M GOING TO GO UP TO
DATE ON THE BILL AFTER MY
DISCUSSIONS WITH YOU AND WITH
THE GENERAL INTENT THAT WE'VE
GOTTA FIX THE MECHANICAL SIDE.
ON THIS NON JUDICIAL PROCESS AND
I AM THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENT
IT IS SENATOR CENTER CHILL IS
JUST KEEPING PEOPLE TALK OKAY
YOU CAN RESPOND HE DID HAVE A
QUESTION YOU RESPOND YOUR
CLOTHES. SENATOR ALLEN EUROPE
NEXT YEAH I JUST WANTED- THE- I
WAN TO THANK THE AUTHOR FOR. A
ROBUST DISCUSSION WE HAD ON THIS
BILL AND- AND ALL THE WORK THAT
I KNOW YOU'RE GONNA PUT INTO
GETTING SOME OF THE MECHANISMS
FIXED. SOME OF THE CONCERNS ARE
OBSOLETE CORRECT- BUT- BUT I
KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO DO
HERE IT'S A RIGHTEOUS CAUSE. AND
I'M GONNA SUPPORT YOUR EFFORTS
TO MOVE FOR WITH THIS BILL AND
GET THESE MECHANISMS FIX SO WE
CAN. PROTECT PEOPLE OR JUST TRY
TO PROTECT THEIR EQUITY IN THEIR
HOMES. THANK YOU CENTER ALLEN
SENATOR BORJAS. I THINK THE
SECOND TO LAST SPEAKER- BROUGHT
UP SO I GOT. SOME IMPORTANT
POINTS WHEN THIS MATTER WAS
BROUGHT TO JUDICIARY- I'D HEARD
THAT THERE WERE SOME AMENDMENTS
THAT HAVE BEEN PROPOSED- AND I
JUST WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU- IF
YOU COULD JUST QUICKLY DESCRIBE
WHAT THOSE MINUTES MIGHT BE AND-
IF YOU. IF YOU'VE TAKEN THEM. OR
YOU ANTICIPATE TAKING THEM. AT
THE NEXT HOUSE. SENATE ARCHULETA
WE TAKE A QUESTION- YES MA'AM.
PLEASE PROCEED. I AM GOING TO-
TAKE ON ALL THE AMENDMENTS THAT
WE POSSIBLY CAN. TO ENSURE THAT
THIS BILL GOES FORWARD. AND IT'S
SUCCESSFUL. WETHERBY THAT TIME
FRAME. WHETHER IT BE AS- MY
COLLEAGUE MENTIONED. ABOUT THE
TIME FRAME. BUT ALSO A THIRD
PARTY STEPPING IN. TO ENSURE
PROTECT THAT HOMEOWNER. THAT'S
ISSUES HERE. BUT THE GIST OF IT
ALL. IS TO PROTECT THAT EQUITY.
AND WE'RE GOING TO GO AHEAD AND
MAKE SURE. THAT EVERY AMENDMENT
POSSIBLE WILL BE CREATED. TO
ENSURE THAT AND THE BANKS AGREE
WITH ME. THEY AGREE THEY DON'T
WANT TO BE THE BAD GUY. BUT WHAT
IS THE TECHNICAL WAY TO GET
THERE. AND WE WILL FIND IT. IN
THE END OF THE YEAR. THE PATH.
TO SUCCESS AND THE NEXT HOUSE AS
WELL. THANK YOU CENTER ARCH LET
US SING NO FURTHER DISCUSSION OR
DEBATE MAY WE TAKE THAT AS YOUR
CALL HOPE SORRY SENATOR ROTH.
FRIEDMAN PRESIDENT YOU KNOW- I
WAS JUST TRYING TO IT'S BEEN A
LONG TIME SINCE I'VE DONE THIS
SORT OF WORK AND I WASN'T
PROBABLY VERY GOOD AT IT WHEN I
DID IT. BUT- IN LOOKING AT THE
TIMELINE. FOR A NON JUDICIAL
FORECLOSURE AND I STAND TO BE
CORRECTED BY MY MORE TALENTED
COLLEAGUES. BUT THE. BLENDER
CAN'T. BACK FOR THIRTY DAYS YOU
HAVE TO CONTACT THE- PERSON
DEFAULT GIVEN THIRTY DAYS THEN
YOU DO A NOTICE OF DEFAULT. THEN
THE DEBTOR HAS NINETY DAYS TO
CURE. AND THEN AS A NOTICE OF
SALE. I NEED TO CANCEL FOR
ANOTHER TWENTY ONE DAYS OF
SOMETIME AFTER THE TWENTY ONE
NEWS. SO WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. A
HUNDRED AND FORTY ONE DAYS OVER
. FOUR MONTHS FROM INITIAL
CONTACT. THE KIND OF CONTACT
WHEN YOU SAY IS ANOTHER ANOTHER
PERSON OFTEN HERE'S A NOTICE OF
DEFAULT. DOES YOUR BILL TAKE
INTO ACCOUNT. THE INACTION BY
THE DEBTOR DURING THAT WHOLE
FOUR MONTH PERIOD WHERE THE
DEBTOR DOES NOTHING TO LIST THE
PROPERTY WITH A REALTOR OR TRY
TO GET IT SOLD TO RECOVER OF THE
EQUITY THAT WE'VE BEEN TALKING
ABOUT. CENTER ARCHULETA WE TAKE
A QUESTION YES MA'AM PLEASE
PROCEED. IT IS PRETTY OBVIOUS
THAT THE TYPE OF INDIVIDUAL THAT
THIS BILL ADDRESSES IS ONE THAT
EITHER PUT THEIR EAD IN THE
SAND- HAS TROUBLE READING
WRITING. PERHAPS IS ALONE
DISABLED MENTALLY HAS A PROBLEM
WHATEVER IT IS THEY HAVE CHOSEN
TO HIDE FROM THE FACT THAT
THEY'RE ABOUT TO LOSE THEIR
HOMES THE EQUITY. AND SO IT IT'S
IMPORTANT WE UNDERSTAND THAT
WHAT THEY WERE TALKING FOR
MONTHS TWENTY ONE DAYS WHATEVER
THE THING IS AND COMPARED TO A
LIFETIME. OF SAVINGS AND WORKING
ON THAT PROPERTY TO HAVE THAT
EQUITY FOR US TO HAVE A LITTLE
BIT MORE TIME TO GIVE THEM THAT
OPPORTUNITY. TO MAYBE GET IN
TOUCH WITH SOMEONE AS WE HAD
MENTIONED HAVING A THIRD PARTY I
THINK THAT'S A GREAT IDEA AND
I'M GOING TO PRESENT THAT AS AN
AMENDMENT. IN MAY BE HAVING
SOMEONE WITHIN THE COUNTY. COME
IN AND JUMP IN BUT THERE IS A
DEFINITELY A TIME WELL ENOUGH IS
ENOUGH AND IT'LL GO ON. BUT AT
THE SAME TIME WE SHOULD DO
EVERYTHING WE POSSIBLY CAN TO
PROTECT THAT HOMEOWNER. SENATE
ROTH THANK YOU BERMAN PRESIDENT
JUST ON MY OWN TIME. AND THEN
THANK YOU FOR TAKING THAT INTO
CONSIDERATION IN TRYING TO WORK
WITH THAT. PERIOD OF AN ACTIVITY
WHICH IS NOT INSUBSTANTIAL I
THINK YOU'LL AGREE WHEN SOMEONE.
OWES MONEY AND THERE'S AN ASSET
JUST SITTING THERE. AND THEN I
MAYBE YOU'VE AREADY ANSWERED
THIS IN RESPONSE TO ONE OF THE
EARLIER QUESTIONS BUT- I ASSUME
THAT YOU WILL CONSIDER PUTTING A
LIMIT ON THE LISTING. IF WE'VE
BEEN FOUR AND A HALF MONTHS
SINCE THE ORIGINAL CONTACT.
FORMAL CONTACT WITH THE DEBTOR.
THE ISTING WHICH AS YOU KNOW IF
YOU KNOW WHEN YOUR BUSINESS CAN
TAKE. STAND FOR SOME PERIOD OF
TIME TO GET A PROPERTY SOLD IN
THE AND THE ACTUAL SALE CLOSED.
THAT YOU PUT A LIMIT ON THAT.
LISTINGS SO AND THEN PROVIDE FOR
HOW THE CREDITOR GETS BACK IN
THE GAME. AT THAT POINT. DO YOU
PAUSE THE- THE NOTICE OF DEFAULT
THE FORECLOSURE PROCEEDING AND
PICK IT UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF
FOR IS DOES THE CREDITOR OF TO
GO BACK AND START THE FOUR AND A
HALF MONTH PERIOD. YET AGAIN. IF
THE SALE FALLS OUT. IN THE THREE
MONTHS THAT WE ALLOW FOR A
LISTING OF THE SIXTY DAYS. DOES
NOT PRODUCE. A FINAL RESULT. IT
WASN'T A QUESTION THAT'S ON MY
OWN TIME THANK YOU FOR
CONSIDERING THAT SIR AND YES ONE
SENATE ROTH SEEING NO FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE SURCHARGE
LET YOU MAY CLOSE THANK YOU
MADAM PRESIDENT OF ALL THE
ISSUES THAT ARE BROUGHT UP BY MY
COLLEAGUES ARE BEING LOOKED AT
AND WE WILL BE WORKING ON THEM
AND AGAIN I THINK ALL OF US CAN
AGREE TO SAVE THAT HOMEOWNER-
THEIR EQUITY IS MUCH AS WE CAN
AND THAT'S WHAT THE BANK IS
WORKING WITH ME. TO DO EXACTLY
THAT THEY DON'T WANT TO BE THE
BAD GUYS AND WE DON'T WANT
ANYONE TO BE HURT AND SUFFER SO
ALONG THE WAY THEY'LL BE AN
OPPORTUNITY WHERE THEY HOMEOWNER
ALWAYS HAS A CHANCE TO STEP UP
AND GET THE PROPERTY SOLD
THEMSELVES AND IF IT HAS TO BE
LISTED A REASONABLE TIME A SIXTY
DAY LISTING IS REASONABLE IN
TODAY'S MARKET A THIRTY DAY
ESCROW IS REASONABLE IN TODAY'S
MARKET THE BANK WILL RECEIVE
THEIR MONEY AT THE END AND WITH
THESE REASONS I ASK FOR YOUR I.

BILL NINE NINETY THREE BY
SENATOR SKINNER AN ACT RELATING
TO CRIMES AND MAKING AN
APPROPRIATION THEREFORE CENTER.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT AND
MEMBERS ACTUALLY IT'S AN ACT
RELATED TO SUPPORT FOR CRIME
VICTIMS CALIFORNIA WAS ONE OF
THE FIRST STATES TO ESTABLISH A
PROGRAM TO PROVIDE SUPPORT FOR
VICTIMS OF CRIME. AND THAT'S THE
PURPOSE OF SB NINE NINE THREE
IT'S TO EXPAND AND IMPROVE THAT
PROGRAM SO THAT WE PROVIDE
SUPPORT TO MORE VICTIMS BECAUSE
UNFORTUNATELY WE'RE IN A
SITUATION NOW THAT ONLY LESS
THAN ONE IN FIVE. OF
CALIFORNIA'S CRIME SURVIVORS
RECEIVED HELP FROM OUR PROGRAM-
AND IT TAKES AN AVERAGE OF TEN
MONTHS TO RECEIVE BENEFITS AND
WHEN YOU CONSIDER THAT SOME OF
THE BENEFITS THAT WE PROVIDE OUR
FOR EXAMPLE TO COVER FUNERAL
COSTS IF THERE WAS A DEATH- A
MURDER. HI IT'S TEN MONTHS IS AN
UNREASONABLE TIME TO WAIT FOR
SUCH A- COMPENSATION. SO SB NINE
NINE THREE IMPROVES ACCESS TO
SUPPORT AND SERVICES FOR
SURVIVORS AND EXONERATIONS IT
INCREASES THE FINANCIAL SUPPORT
A CRIME SURVIVOR CAN RECEIVE
WHICH IS NOT BEEN ADJUSTED FOR
YEARS. THAT IT STREAMLINES THE
CLAIMS PROCESS SO THAT VICTIMS
OF CRIME CAN RECEIVE SUPPORT
SOONER- IN IT ALSO REMOVES SOME
OF THE BARRIERS THAT HAVE
PREVENTED SOME OF OUR CRIME
VICTIMS FROM RECEIVING THAT
SUPPORT. LASTLY IT PROVIDES
IMPROVED ASSISTANCE TO EXONERATE
THOSE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE
WRONGFULLY CONVICTED OR
INCARCERATED FOR A CRIME. AND
WITH THAT I ASK FOR YOUR AYE
VOTE THANK YOU CENTER SKINNER
MEMBERS DISCUSSION AND DEBATE
SENATOR GROVE. THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT QUESTION EITHER.
SANDERS CAN WE TAKE A QUESTION
YES PLEASE PROCEED THERE'S A
LANGUAGE IN THIS BILL ALLOW
THOSE THAT COMMITTED OR
PERPETRATED THE CRIME AND TO
APPLY FOR THESE BENEFITS AS
WELL. CENTER SKINNER.IF THE
PERSON WHO COMMITTED THE CRIME
IN QUESTION. IT ABSOLUTELY
PROHIBITS THEM FROM RECEIVING
ANY COMPENSATION OR SUBMITTING
ANY FORM TO THE CRIME VICTIMS
PROGRAM UNDER THIS BILL SO. THE
IT DOES NOT DO THAT CENTER GROVE
THANK YOU THINKING THEM CENTER
NIELSEN. MADAM PRESIDENT LADIES
GENTLEMAN OF THE SENATE. I
DISAGREE I THINK JUST ABSOLUTELY
. LET ALLOWS CRIMINALS TO
QUALIFY THE BENEFITS CONTINUING
THE TREND OF TURNING THE VICTIM
SYSTEM THE JUSTICE SYSTEM INSIDE
OUT MAKING CRIMINALS AND THEIR
KIN OR FRIENDS THE VICTIMS.
THAT'S JUST NOT RIGHT. THIS IS
NOT ABSOLUTE AND IT ALSO AS I
UNDERSTAND IT FROM OUR ANALYSIS
. ELIMINATING THE REQUIREMENT
THAT A POLICE REPORT BE MADE.
THAT MIGHT LIMIT THE ABILITY TO
VERIFY CLAIMS OR BALLOTS.
ELIMINATING THE POLICE REPORT
NOW THIS IS A FUNDAMENTAL
DOCUMENT IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE
SYSTEM WE'RE GONNA GET RID OF.
SO YOU CANNOT VERIFY. WHETHER
THAT CRIMINAL OR THEIR WHATEVER
. ACTUALLY SHOULD QUALIFY. WRONG
DIRECTION LADIES AND GENTLEMAN.
GOSH SAKES IN TERMS OF THE
RIGHTS OF THE VICTIMS. WHO LOST
LOVED ONES WHO HAVE SUFFERED

BILL TEN EIGHTEEN BY SENATOR PAN
AND AFTER RELATING TO BUSINESS
CENTER PAN THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT CENTERS ON PLEASE
PRESENT SB TEN EIGHTEEN THE
PLATFORM ACCOUNTABILITY AND
TRANSPARENCY ACT. AS WE
DISCUSSED EARLIER TODAY SOCIAL
MEDIA HAS DRAMATICALLY CHANGED
THE WAY WE SHARE AND CONSUME
INFORMATION YET WE KNOW NEXT TO
NOTHING ABOUT HOW THIS
INFORMATION WHAT INFORMATION.
AND SOME OFTENTIMES
MISINFORMATION IS PRESENTED TO
US IN HER CONGRESSIONAL
TESTIMONY FOR THIS SO FACEBOOK
WHISTLEBLOWER FRANCIS HOW CAN
EXPLAIN HOW FACEBOOK KNOWINGLY
LEVERAGE THEIR PLATFORM TO
PRIORITIES PROFITS ENGAGEMENT
OVER CIVIC RESPONSIBILITY. THE
FALLOUT OF JANUARY SIX ATTACK ON
THE NATION'S CAPITAL THOUSANDS
OF LEAKED INTERNAL DOCUMENTS
PROVE THAT FACEBOOK PLAYED A
LARGE PART IN SPREADING
INFLAMMATORY MISINFORMATION
ABOUT ELECTION FRAUD AND AIDED
COMMUNICATION EFFORTS OF THE
EXTREMIST MILITIA HEAD OF THE
RIOTS. SOCIAL MEDIA IS ALSO A
KEY DISTRIBUTOR PUBLIC HEALTH
INFORMATION ACT ONE STUDY SHOWED
THAT A MERE TWELVE PEOPLE UNDER
SECEDED ORGANIZATIONS
RESPONSIBLE 465% OF VACCINE
MISINFORMATION ON TWITTER
FACEBOOK AND INSTAGRAM POSING AN
ENORMOUS DANGER TO PUBLIC
HEALTH. IN FACT THE STUDY
RECENTLY PUBLISHED IN THE
SCIENTIFIC JOURNAL NATURE FOUND
THAT ONLINE MISINFORMATION IS
DIRECTLY LINKED TO COVER
NINETEEN JACKSON HASN'T SEEN
REFUSAL. MOST RECENTLY THIS
COUNTRY HAS WITNESSED THE
DESTRUCTIVE POWER OF
MISINFORMATION AND RACIST
CONTENT ON SOCIAL MEDIA AS
EXEMPLIFIED BY THE BUFFALO
GROCERY STORE SHOOTING. AND THE
QUOTE NEW YORK ATTORNEY GENERAL
THE TISSUE JAMES THE TERROR
ATTACK IN BUFFALO HAS ONCE AGAIN
REVEALED THE DEPTHS AD DANGERS
OF THE ONLINE. FORMS THAT SPREAD
AND PROMOTE EIGHT. THIS CLEAR
THAT THESE. HAVE SEPARATE. TO
REINFORCE BIAS HATE AND
MISINFORMATION AND
PREFERENTIALLY AMPLIFY THAT. SO
TRANSPARENCY IS ESSENTIAL IN
UNDERSTANDING THE SOCIAL IMPACT
OF THESE PLATFORMS THIS BILL
WILL GIVE THE PUBLIC THE TOOLS
WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND HOW SOCIAL
MEDIA COMPANIES ARE IMPACTING
OUR LIVES. SB TEN EIGHTEEN
REQUIRES ONLINE SOCIAL MEDIA
PLATFORMS TO MAKE ANY PUBLIC
DISCLOSURES ABOUT THE CONTENT
MODERATION EFFORTS THESE REPORTS
INCLUDE STATISTICS ON THE ITEMS
OF CONTENT THAT TH PLATFORM
DETERMINE VIOLATED ITS POLICIES
OFTEN THIS CONTENT WAS VIEWED
AND TO THE EXTENT BY WHICH THE
VIOLATING CONTENT WAS
RECOMMENDED. AMPLIFIER IN
IMPROVISED BY THE PLATFORM
ALGORITHMS. SOCIAL MEDIA
PLATFORMS HAVE TREMENDOUS POWER
AFFECT WHAT WE SEE HOW WE FEEL
WHAT WE BELIEVE. AND YET HOW THE
OPERATE REMAINS EXTREMELY OKAY.
I'LL MAKE NOTE THAT OF THE
LEADING SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANIES
ONE OF THEM A FACEBOOK
ESSENTIALLY CONTROLLED BY ONE
MAN. AND ANOTHER IS ABOUT TO BE
TAKEN PRIVATE BY ANOTHER
BILLIONAIRE. THESE COMPANIES ARE
NOT ACCOUNTABLE TO THE PUBLIC IN
FACT I'M NOT EVEN REALLY
ACCOUNTABLE TO SHAREHOLDERS
THEY'RE BEING SOLELY OUT OF
CONTROL BY SINGLE PEOPLE. NOW I
WANT TO THANK THE OPPOSITION FOR
WORKING DILIGENTLY OFFICE I KNOW
THAT THEY'RE STILL REVIEWING THE
MOST RECENT AMENDMENTS. SHOULD
THIS BILL MOVED TO THE ASSEMBLY
OUTLOOK FOR THE CONTINUING
PRODUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS SO THAT
WE CAN HAVE MORE. AGAIN GREATER
TRANSPARENCY GREATER
UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT'S GOING
ON. ULTIMATELY SB TEN EIGHTEEN
THIS IS A NECESSARY STEP TO
ENSURE TRANSPARENCY AND
ACCOUNTABILITY IN THIS VERY
POWERFUL AND BURGEONING
INDUSTRY. AND ALSO IN TERMS OF
US HAVING A BETTER UNDERSTANDING
OF WHAT. IS PUT IN FRONT OF US.
AND THE PUBLIC ART BY SOCIAL
MEDIA COMPANIES WITH THAT I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN AYE
VOTE. THANK YOU CENTER PAN
MEMBERS DISCUSSION AND DEBATE
SENATOR NIELSEN. MADAM PRESIDENT
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN THE SENATE.
THE GROUP GOT THIS A LITTLE
BACKWARDS THE PROBLEM HERE. IS
NOT AS MUCH I WOULD ARGUE OF
WHOEVER'S READING THIS
INFORMATION. AS A LARGE
BILLIONAIRE COMPANIES. THE
PROVIDERS THEY ARE THE ONES WHO
DETERMINE CONTENT THEY'RE THE
ONES WHO CLEARLY NOW ARE CENTURY
. BLACKLISTING REMOVING FROM
THEIR PLATFORMS THAT WILL IN
DESIGNING THEIR OWN A LOGARITHMS
ALGORITHMS. I THINK THAT'S A
PART OF THE PROBLEM IF WE WANT
TO ADDRESS THAT SIDE OF THE
EQUATION THEN WE CAN AT LEAST
I'LL HAVE A CONVERSATION. BUT
SHORT OF THAT I LOOK AT THIS AS
SOMETHING THAT IS NOT HELPFUL.
TO THE PUBLIC TO THE PUBLIC
THEY'RE GETTING FROZEN OUT. BY
THESE QUOTES BILLIONAIRES WHO
THINK THEY RULE THE WORLD NOW
THE HIGH TECH COMPANIES SOME ARE
GOOD. BUT THINK INCREASINGLY
THEY'RE BECOMING PROBLEMATIC IN
THE UNITED STATES AND
PROBLEMATIC THE CITIZENS OF THIS
COUNTRY I ORIGINAL THANK YOU
SENATOR NELSON SENATOR MELINDA'S
. THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT- I
HAVE A QUESTION OF THE AUTHOR
CENTER PAN WE TAKE A QUESTION
COURSE YES PLEASE PROCEED THANK
YOU SO MUCH- I WILL POSE THE
SAME QUESTION I POSED TO AN
EARLIER AUTHOR WHICH IS FITTED
CALIFORNIA DOESN'T REGULATE
SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS SO HOW IS
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA GOING TO
MAKE ANY SORT OF REQUIREMENT. ON
THESE PLATFORMS WHEN THEY DON'T
HAVE TO FOLLOW ANY RULES THAT WE
SET WELL HARRIS COUNTY BUT THAT
THANK YOU- WELL ACTUALLY- HERE
TO STAY CALIFORNIA THINGS TO THE
TENTH AMENDMENT- WE ACTUALLY ARE
ABLE TO POLICE OF THINGS WITHIN
OUR OWN TATE RIGHT THAT SAID IF
YOU LOOK AT THE TENTH AMENDMENT
OF THE CONSTITUTION. AND YEAH WE
CAN SET THE RULES AND
REGULATIONS AND LAWS TO PROTECT
THE SAFETY OF THE PUBLIC AND- SO
NOW THIS BILL IS MAINLY ABOUT
TRANSPARENCY SO I AGAIN
APPRECIATE- SOMETHING THAT IF WE
WANT TO TRY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT'S
GOING ON. BUT THIS BILL BECAUSE
ON IS FOR THERE TO BE
TRANSPARENCY CERTAINLY SOMEONE
CAN IS I THINK THAT THE FROM A
PRIOR SPEAKER ON THE PRIOR BILL
SAID CERTAINLY AND WE CAN ALWAYS
TAKE IT TO COURT AND SAY THAT
THEY HAVE IT THEY THEY HAVE A
DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW- BUT
AGAIN THIS BILL'S BEEN VETTED
THROUGH OUR JUDICIARY COMMITTEE-
THEY DID OUT AND OF A
CONSTITUTIONAL ISSUES. AND SO I
BELIEVE THAT THIS BILL IS GOING
TO MEET- THAT MUSTER CENTER
BELINDA'S OKAY THANK YOU SO MUCH
ONE OTHER QUESTION IF I MAY THE
MOTION SIR PAN. YES THANK YOU-
SO ONCE THE INFORMATION IS. IS
POSTED IN PROVIDED. THE WHAT.
WHAT SENATOR WHAT IS TO BE DONE
WITH THAT SO ACTUALLY WHAT
WHAT'S THE GOAL RIGHT WELL THE
GOAL IS FOR US TO HAVE A BETTER
UNDERSTANDING WHAT'S GOING ON IN
SOCIAL MEDIA SO FOR EXAMPLE- MY
GOOD FRIEND FROM TEN AM- BROUGHT
UP THE ISSUE OF LIKE WELL WHAT A
BILLION YEARS UP TO WHAT ONE
THIRTY ALBUMS PUTTING IN FRONT
OF US WHAT ARE THE THINGS THAT
THEY ARE PUTTING FROM A SOMEWHAT
DAY NOT PUTTING IN FRONT OF US
RIGHT. SO WE WANT TO KNOW RIGHT
NOW WHAT WE ARE DEPENDING ON AS
WE'RE DEPENDING ON
WHISTLEBLOWERS ATTALUS SO
FACEBOOK ITSELF KNEW WHAT WAS
DOING THEY WERE STUDYING IT BUT
THE ONLY WAY WE THE PUBLIC CAN
YOU WAS BECAUSE OF WHAT THE
FIFTH WHISTLE BLOWER VANCE TOLD
US WHAT THEY HAD AN INTERNAL
FILES. SO BY CREATING THIS
INCREASE TRANSPARENCY. THAT
ALLOWS US THE PUBLIC. THE PUBLIC
MAY COMMUNICATE WITH US AS
LEGISLATORS AND SAY YOU KNOW
WHAT. MAYBE THINGS ARE NOT RIGHT
AND WE SHOULD. ACT AND ON THIS
INFORMATION RIGHT. NOW THAT WE
HAVE ACCURATE INFORMATION WHAT'S
GOING ON THESE PLATFORMS. FOR
EXAMPLE I KNOW WHERE THE
CONCERNS IS THAT IS THERE. IS
THERE BIAS IN IN IN WHAT IN HOW
THE ISLAND'S WORK RIGHT. SO LET
NOW WE'D BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY IS
OUR BIAS OR NOT RIGHT NOW WE- SO
FOR EXAMPLE WITHOUT TRANSPARENCY
WE CAN ONLY SPECULATE. WE COULD
SAY WELL BASED ON WHAT I'M
SEEING MY FEET I THINK THAT THIS
COMPANY IS BIASED. YOU KNOW
AGAINST THE- CONSERVATIVES ORDER
BIAS AGAINST WHATEVER IT ALSO.
WITHOUT WITH TRANSPARENCY WE CAN
SAY OKAY LET'S MAKE GOOD POLICY
BASED ON FACTS. LET'S BASE IT ON
INFORMATION ACCURATE INFORMATION
THAT WE HAVE. AND THAT'S WHY
THIS BILL SO IMPORTANT SO WE CAN
ACTUALLY HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING
AND THEN WE CAN HAVE THAT DEBATE
OF IDEAS BECAUSE THIS IS NOT
ABOUT CONTENT MODERATION IS
ABOUT UNDERSTANDING. THE
AMPLIFICATION AND REACH. THANK
YOU CENTER PANTS AND OLYMPUS
THANK YOU SO MUCH- OKAY SO NOW
I'M EVEN MORE CONFUSED- THOUGH I
APPRECIATE YOUR YOUR-
THOUGHTFULNESS IN TRYING TO
CLARIFY BUT THE BILL TALKS
ABOUT- MAKING SURE THE PUBLIC
KNOWS ABOUT. PEOPLE CALL THE
CONTENT VIOLATING THE PLATFORM'S
POLICY IT DOESN'T SAY ANYTHING
ABOUT ALGORITHMS OR
MISINFORMATION OR ANYTHING LIKE
THAT IT'S TALKING ABOUT
VIOLATING THE PLATFORM'S
POLICIES SO I'M STILL LEFT TO
WONDER IF YOU. TRY IN OUR
SUCCESSFUL TO FORCE THE TECH
COMPANY A SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM
TO POST EVER YOU KNOW THE
PERCENTAGES OF WHEN. THEIR THEIR
PLATFORM POLICIES WERE VIOLATED
OKAY SO 12% OF THE TIME SO AND
I'M- 12% OF THE TIME FOR THE
YEAR TWENTY TWENTY TWO- NEAR THE
PLATFORM'S POLICIES WERE
VIOLATED OKAY. AND THEN WHAT
SENATE AGAIN WHAT. THE ARGUMENT
AT ALL SO NO. NO NOT A QUESTION
I'M SORRY IT'S KIND OF
RHETORICAL I MEAN I THINK HE
TRIED TO ANSWER THAT ALREADY
EARLIER BUT I'M JUST MAKING THE
POINT THAT I JUST DON'T KNOW.
WHAT EXACTLY IS THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA GOING TO DO THAT I
MEAN IF THE BILL IS ABOUT. AGAIN
WHICH IS WHAT I'M READING ABOUT.
THE PLATFORM ALLOWING ITS OWN
POLICIES TO BE VIOLATED AND THEN
NOTIFYING THE PUBLIC OF WHEN
THAT HAPPENS. I JUST DON'T
UNDERSTAND THE POINT AND IN I
WILL ADD TO THAT BUT I STILL
DON'T THINK THAT WE HAVE
JURISDICTION ON THE TENTH
AMENDMENT OR NINE DAYS THESE
THESE COMPANIES YOUR MANY
THEY'RE NOT CALIFORNIA BASED
COMPANIES WE HAVE NO AUTHORITY
OVER THEM SOME OF THEM MAYBE.
THESE CERTAINLY AREN'T ALL AND I
JUST DON'T SEE HOW A COURT IS
GOING TO RULE IN OUR FAVOR IN
SAY YES CALIFORNIA YOU CAN
REGULATE IN YOU CAN DEMAND THAT
THESE PLATFORMS PROVIDE YOU WITH
THE INFORMATION THAT YOU ARE
SEEKING SO WITH THAT I WOULD
ENCOURAGE YOU KNOW THAT THANK
YOU. THANK YOU SEEN NO FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE SENATOR PAM
WHICH LIKE TO CLOSE YES- FIRST
OF ALL I POINT OUT THAT- WE
REGULATE MANY THINGS HERE TO
PROTECT THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF
CALIFORNIANS- INCLUDING FROM
COMPANIES THAT NOT AREN'T IN OUR
STATE- WE ARE WE UNDER TENSE
MOMENT WE DO ALL WE CAN
ESTABLISH STANDARDS- I WOULD
ALSO POINT OUT THAT. WHEN MY-
GOOD FRIEND THE- THAT WELL WHAT
WE DO ABOUT WE JUST GIVE YOU AN
EXAMPLE ACTUALLY- CNN REPORT ON
THIS- ACTUALLY INDEMNIFIED
SEVERAL POSTS. ON FACEBOOK IN
WHICH- AHRENDTS. PARENTS OF
CHILDREN WHO IN FOURTEEN HAVE
DIED OF A PREVENTABLE DISEASE
WERE HARASSED AND WENT TO
FACEBOOK AND SAID VIOLATED THESE
VALLEY COMMUNITY STANDARDS OF
FACEBOOK SAID YES. AND THEN
CHECK NINE MONTHS LATER WHAT
HAPPENED AND FOUND OUT THE
COMPANY DID NOTHING ABOUT IT AND
THEN THAT THEN LEADS TO- PUSH
BACK ON FACEBOOK ABOUT WHY ARE
YOU NOT BY YOU KNOW AND- IT.
BASICALLY FORCING THE COULD
STANDARD BY WAY THAT YOU
YOURSELF ESTABLISHED I WOULD
ALSO POINT OUT THAT SO I THINK
THAT KIND OF TRANSPARENCY IS
IMPORTANT- THAT'S HOLDING THE
COMPANIES ACCOUNTABLE INTEREST
ENOUGH EVEN FOR THEIR OWN
STANDARDS- THIS IS ENOUGH
FACEBOOK ITSELF ESTABLISHED.
OVERSIGHT BOARD WHICH OF COURSE
IT TURNS OUT THE OVERSIGHT BOARD
IS NOW COMPLAINING THAT FACEBOOK
IS ENSURING THAT DATA WITH THEM
FOR THEM TO BE AUDITED JOBS OR
EVEN FACEBOOK ITSELF ADMITTED
THAT NEED TO HAVE AN OVERSIGHT
BOARD- THEMSELVES- THE
ESTABLISHED ONE- AND ALSO THIS
BILL DOES ADDRESS IMPLICATION AS
WELL AND I THINK AMPLIFICATIONS
OF PARTICULAR IMPORTANT PART
BECAUSE AFTER ALL WE'RE NOT
ABOUT TRYING TO. REGULATE SPEECH
IT'S ABOUT REACH AND- AND TRYING
TO PREVENT THE SPREAD OF
MISINFORMATION AND HATE BUT
WITHOUT TRANSPARENCY WE DON'T
KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. AND THAT'S
IMPORTANT FOR US TO BE ABLE TO
UNDERSTAND THIS POLICYMAKERS WE
CAN MAKE SOUND POLICIES AND WITH
THAT RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN AYE

PLEASED TO PRESENT SB TEN NINETY

ACT SB TO NINETY CENTS ABOUT
CONSUMER SAFETY IN PARTICULAR
SAFETY FOR TEENS AND ADULTS AND
INFANTS DURING PREGNANCY. THE
BRAINS ARE STILL DEVELOPING THIS
CLEAR SIGNS THAT CANNABIS CAN
HAVE LONG TERM DAMAGING EFFECTS
THE MEASURES BASED ON THE MOST
RECENT SCIENCE ABOUT THE HEALTH
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH CANNABIS
USE IN THREE DIFFERENT WAYS
FIRST A REQUIRES RETAILERS
PROVIDE FIRST TIME CONSUMERS
WITH A SCIENCE BASED. SINGLE

FOR SAFER USE SECOND REQUIRES A
ROTATING HEALTH WARNING LABEL
INTERCHANGE CONSUMERS TO BUY
LEGAL PRODUCTS EXPLAINING THE
HAZARDS OF ILLICIT CANNABIS AND
THIRD IT REQUIRES A ROTATING
PICTORIAL HEALTH WARNING LABEL
AND A MORE PROMINENT POSITION
THIS BILL ALSO SPECIFIES THAT
THAT THERE ARE ROTATING MESSAGES
DESIGNED FOR CERTAIN PRODUCT
CATEGORIES. RESEARCHERS SHOW
THAT SMOKERS WHO NOTICED
WARNINGS HAVE AN INCREASE
KNOWLEDGE OF HEALTH RISKS FIFTY

SIGNIFICANTLY SINCE THE PASSAGE

FOR SUPPLEMENTAL ABLE TO
ACCOMPANY THE EXISTING ONE HAS
BECOME APPARENT. WE ARE IN THE
MIDST OF A MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS
AND UNFORTUNATELY MANY PEOPLE
ARE UNDER THE FALSE IMPRESSION
THAT CANNABIS IS AN EFFECTIVE
TREATMENT FOR THAT. CURRENT
SCIENTIFIC LITERATURE SHOWS THAT
CANNABIS CONSUMPTION. MAY HAVE
THE PARTICULAR FOR USE A
NEGATIVE IMPACT ON MENTAL
HEALTH. AND THEREFORE THE
IMPORTANCE OF THE WARNINGS. SOME
PEOPLE IN THE INDUSTRY MAY TELL

DO THIS KIND OF GRANT FUNDING.
BUT WE HAVE COMMUNITIES THAT
HAVE A HARD TIME ACCESSING THAT

MONUMENTAL DECISION TWENTY SIX
STATES ARE CERTAIN OR LIKELY TO
BAN ABORTIONS IMPACTING AS MANY
AS THIRTY SIX MEN MILLION
INDIVIDUALS WHO MAY BECOME
PREGNANT ACCORDING TO A RECENT
GOOD MARKER INSTITUTE REPORT
CALIFORNIA MAY SEE A NEAR 3000%
INCREASE IN PEOPLE TRAVELING TO
CALIFORNIA FOR ABORTION CARE IF
A TOTAL BAN WERE TO TAKE PLACE
IN THE UNITED STATES. IF THIS
HAPPENS PATIENTS WILL NEED
SUPPORT AS THEY TRAVEL AND MAY
NEED ACCESS TO TRANSPORTATION
LODGING CHILDCARE AND MEDICAL

PROVIDERS CAN EXPECT TO SEE A
RISE IN DEMAND AND IN THE
WORKLOAD SB ELEVEN FORTY TWO.
WILL PROVIDE GRANTS TO
CALIFORNIA BASED ORGANIZATIONS
WHO PROVIDE SERVICES TO PATIENTS
. AND WHOSE DIRECT SUPPORT SUCH
AS A RIGHT TO THE HEALTH CARE
FACILITY IS SOMETIMES THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SEEKING CARE

CREATE A WEBSITE WITH
CENTRALIZED INFORMATION FOR

WILL COMBAT MISINFORMATION AND
PROVIDE PATIENTS ACCESS TO THE

THANK YOU AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK

CENTER CABALLERO DISCUSSION AND
DEBATE CENTER SKINNER. THANK YOU
MADAM PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS ARE
RISES JOINT AUTHOR OF SB ELEVEN
FORTY TWO AND REALLY THANK MY
COLLEAGUES. FOR JOINING US IN
THIS. IN PUTTING FOR DESPAIR
VERY IMPORTANT MISSION HISTORY
DEMONSTRATES THAT ABORTION
RESTRICTIONS DO NOT STOP
ABORTIONS PRIOR TO THE DECISION
OF THE SUPREME COURT IN THE
ROVER YOU WEIGHED IN THE U. S.
AND THIS IS WHEN WE WERE QUITE A
SMALLER POPULATION ACROSS THE
COUNTRY THERE WERE OVER FIVE
THOUSAND DEATHS PER YEAR. FIVE
THOUSAND WOMEN DIED SEEKING THAT
ABORTION THEY FELT THEY NEEDED.
AND YET COULD NOT GET MEDICALLY
SAFE OR LEGAL. AND WE KNOW THAT
LOWER INCOME WOMEN AND WOMEN OF
COLOR ARE DISPROPORTIONATELY AT
RISK. SO THE SAD REALITY IS THAT
ELIMINATING. R. RIGHT. WEALTHY
WOMEN WILL ALWAYS HAVE THE
CHOICEWEALTHY WOMEN WILL BE
ABLE TO FIND AN ABORTION LOW
INCOME WOMEN WILL HAVE A MUCH
MORE DIFFICULT TIME AND SUFFER
GREATER CONSEQUENCES AND WHAT SB
ELEVEN FORTY TWO DOES IS
COMMUNICATES TO EVERYONE IN OUR
STATE AND WE'RE VERY LARGE STATE
SO YOU YOU YOU DON'T NECESSARILY
HAVE A CLINIC NEARBY EVEN THOUGH
WE HAVE NO RESTRICTIONS. IT
ALLOWS ANYONE WHO NEEDS THE
SERVICES TO BE ABLE TO ACCESS A
WEBSITE WHERE THEY CAN GET THIS
INFORMATION AND THEN IN THE CASE
THAT THEY FACE SOME PRACTICAL
MEET THE PRACTICAL NEEDS STATE
TO COVER CHILD CARE FOR THEIR
CHILDREN OR PERHAPS YOU HAVE TO
GET AN OVERNIGHT STAY BECAUSE OF
THE DISTANCE WERE FROM WHERE
THEY LIVE. THAT THERE WOULD BE A
FUND ESTABLISHED THAT WE WOULD
SEEK. BUSINESS SUPPORT FOR
INDIVIDUAL DONATIONS YOU NAME IT
. SO THAT PERHAPS THOSE PEOPLE
COULD GET SOME PRACTICAL SUPPORT
IF NEEDED. AND IT REALLY WILL
ALLOW CALIFORNIA TO MAKE REAL
OUR COMMITMENT TO BE THE BEACON
FOR REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM AND
ABORTION ACCESS IN THIS COUNTRY-AND WITH THAT I ASK FOR YOUR I.
PHONE. THANK YOU CENTER SKINNER
CENTER GROVE. THANK YOU MADAM
PRESIDENT QUESTION OF THE AUTHOR
CYNICAL WHERE WE TAKE THE
QUESTION WELL PLEASE PROCEED
THANK YOU MA'AM I WAS TRYING TO
READ THROUGH THE BILL AS FAST AS
I COULD BUT IN YOUR COMMENTS AND
MY COLLEAGUE FROM BERKLEY'S
COMMENTS- AS WELL. YOU TALKED
ABOUT GRANT FUNDING THAT WOULD
BE AVAILABLE. I'M ASSUMING.
PLEASE CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG.
IT'S OUT OF STATE INDIVIDUALS
THAT WOULD. THAT WOULD BE
RECEIVING THOSE THAT GRANT
FUNDING FROM THE NONPROFITS THAT
APPLY FOR THE GRANTS ELLER
CABALLERO. SO THE GRANTS WOULD
BE- APPLIED FOR BY ORGANIZATIONS
THAT PURPORT PROVIDE HEALTH
SERVICES. AND THE GRANTS COULD
GO TO ANY INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE
IN CALIFORNIA IN ORDER TO HELP
THEM ACCESS THE SERVICES IN
CALIFORNIA. CENTER GROVE.
QUESTION OTHER AGAIN PLEASE WE
TAKE ANOTHER QUESTION YES I WILL
PLEASE PROCEED SO THE GRANT
FUNDING THAT'S AVAILABLE BY THE
STATE TAXPAYERS OF CALIFORNIA
THROUGH THIS BILL IF THIS BILL
PASSES WOULD ONLY GO TO. ADD
ORGANIZATIONS IN CALIFORNIA TO
HELP CALIFORNIA WOMEN OBTAIN
ABORTIONS CENTER CABALLERO YES
NOW IF YOU'RE IN CALIFORNIA
SEEKING AN ABORTION- IN A
CALIFORNIA FACILITY THEN YOU GET
YOUR- YOU CAN ASK FOR RESOURCES
AND IT WOULD BE UP TO THE
ORGANIZATION TO GRANT THOSE
RESOURCES. ASSEMBLY VISITING
FROM CAL FROM ANOTHER STATE TO
CALIFORNIA- IT THEORETICALLY I
THINK THAT'S TRUE. OKAY THANK
YOU. THANK YOU CENTER MELINDA'S
. THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT- WE
HAD THIS BILL WE HAD THIS VERY
CONVERSATION THAT MY COLLEAGUE
FROM BAKERSFIELD JUST BROUGHT UP
ABOUT THE FUNDING ISSUE- AND I
ASK THE QUESTION. WILL THIS
FUNDING BE AVAILABLE TO WOMEN
WHO DO NOT LIVE IN CALIFORNIA
AND THE ANSWER WAS YES. IT'S
AVAILABLE TO WOMEN IN CALIFORNIA
IT'S ALSO AVAILABLE TO WOMEN
FROM THE EAST COAST FROM THE
SOUTH YOU NAME IT IT WOULD BE
AVAILABLE TO THEM IT WOULD PAY
FOR. CHILDCARE SERVICES IF THEY
HAPPEN TO BE BRINGING OTHER
CHILDREN ALONG WITH THEM IT
WOULD PAY FOR TRANSPORTATION
PLANE FARE HOTELS MEALS YOU KNOW
YOU NAME IT THAT'S WHAT THIS
FUNDING WOULD GO TOWARDS IN MY-
FEELING ON THIS IN. THIS IS
IRRESPECTIVE OF YOUR POSITION ON
ABORTION BUT WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT. CREATING A FUND TO PAY
FOR ABORTIONS WHEN WE HAVE
PEOPLE LIVING ON THE STREETS IN
CALIFORNIA WE HAVE PEOPLE WHO
CANNOT AFFORD A HOME WHO CANNOT
AFFORD RENT WE HAVE VETERANS WHO
ARE LANGUISHING ON THE STREETS.
AND THIS BILL IS DUE THIS IS THE
GROUP THAT WE HAVE CHOSEN. TO
GIVE OUR ATTENTION TO AND HELP
THAT IS SHAMEFUL. YOUR POSITION
ON ABORTION IS OF LITTLE
CONSEQUENCE TO ME AT THIS POINT
WHAT IS A CONSEQUENCE IS A FACT
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT PUTTING
TOGETHER A FIND OF MILLIONS AND
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. THERE'S SO
MANY OTHER THINGS IN THE STATE
WE CAN BE SPENDING THAT MONEY ON
AND- BY THE WAY MAYBE WE SHOULD
BE SPENDING THAT MONEY BUT
PEOPLE WHO ARE ACTUALLY FROM
CALIFORNIA. NOT SOMEBODY FROM
UTAH OR NEW MEXICO OR LET THEIR
STATES TAKE CARE OF THEM BUT WHY
IN THE WORLD. WOULD WE SET UP A
FUND TO HELP PEOPLE FROM OTHER
STATES UNLESS OF COURSE IT'S
BECAUSE WE'RE FALLING IN LINE
WITH THE GOVERNOR'S. SPEECH THAT
HE GAVE ABOUT HOW HE WANTS
CALIFORNIA TO BECOME THE
ABORTION SANCTUARY. THAT'S I
GUESS WHAT WE WILL BE KNOWN FOR
NOW THAT IN FREE SENTINEL
WHEREVER YOU CAN FIND IT. I MEAN
COME ON THIS IS. UP I RECOMMEND
A NO VOTE ON THIS BILL THANK YOU
pNO FURTHER DISCUSSION OR DEBATE
CENTER CABALLERO YOU MAY CLOSE
THANK YOU VERY MUCH- MADAM
PRESIDENT AND I'M GOING TO THANK
EVERYBODY FOR THE COMMENTS LOOK
I THINK THE- WE CAN DEBATE.
APPEAR KIND OF AD INFINITUM
ABOUT ALL THE ISSUES THAT ARE-
TROUBLES IN THE WORLD WE CAN
TALK ABOUT- YOU KNOW HOW TO HOW
THE CHILDREN ARE GETTING SHOT
WHEN THEY GO TO SCHOOL WE CAN
TALK ABOUT THE FACT THAT WE HAVE
HOMELESS ON THE STREETS. WE CAN
TALK ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES
AND WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT A LOT
OF THESE ISSUES HERE TODAY- BUT
THE FACT THAT. WE ARE IN. THE
MIX OF A CRISIS. AROUND
HEALTHCARE AND REPRODUCTIVE
RIGHTS- DOESN'T GET DIMINISHED
BY THE FACT THAT THERE ARE OTHER
CRISIS IS OUT OUT OUT IN THE
WORLD- WHAT WE KNOW IS THAT WHEN
WOMEN ARE DESPERATE. AND THEIR
RIGHTS. ARE TAKEN AWAY. THAT
THEY GET DESPERATE AND THEY DO
DESPERATE THINGS AND WOMEN DIE
AND SO DO THEIR CHILDREN AND SO
ON THIS FUND. IS ONLY ONE OF THE
SOLUTIONS THAT WE THINK IS
CRITICALLY IMPORTANT TO BE ABLE
TO FUNDED THE SERVICE THAT
INDIVIDUALS DESPERATELY NEED WHO
BECOME PREGNANT. AND ALLOW THEM
TO MAKE PERSONAL CHOICES IN
THEIR LIVES BECAUSE WE LOVE THEM
AND WE THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR
THEM TO LOVE THEMSELVES AND BE
ABLE TO MAKE CHOICES ABOUT WHEN
THEY START A FAMILY. THIS SIMPLE
AS THAT- IN SO. THE BILL WOULD
SET UP A FUND IT WOULD INVITE
PRIVATE FUNDS AS WELL WE WOULD
NOT BE FUNDING IT TOTALLY FROM
THE STATE WE GET WE HAVE BOB
OFFERS PHILANTHROPIC OFFERS AS
WELL. AND WE EXPECT THIS TO BE A
FINE THAT'LL PROVIDE SOME REALLY
CRITICALLY HEALTH CRITICAL
HEALTH. CARE INFORMATION AND
SUPPORT SERVICES OUT TO PEOPLE
IN DESPERATE NEED AND SO I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR AYE
VOTE. THANK YOU CENTER CABALLERO

SECRETARY PLEASE READ SENATE
BILL ELEVEN FIFTY EIGHT BY
SENATOR BACKER AN ACT RELATING
TO ELECTRICITY. CENTER BAKER.
HELLO SENATORS THAT MY FOR
STATEMENT SAYS THIS IS A VERY
SIMPLE BILL- BUT ACTUALLY REALLY
NOT I'M IT'S ACTUALLY FAIRLY.
IT'S ACTUALLY PRETTY WONKY BILL
BUT LET ME SEE IF I CAN COVER IT
QUICKLY FIRST THE GOOD NEWS.
GOOD NEWS IS WE SET GREENHOUSE
GAS TARGETS FOR ALL OF OUR
ELECTRICITY SUPPLIERS THAT MEANS
OUR USE OUR MUTINIES ARE CCA'S.
THE BAD NEWS IS WE HAVE NOTHING
IN PLACE TO MEASURE HOW WELL
THEY'RE DOING AGAINST THOSE
TARGETS. AND HOW QUESTIONS HOW
CAN WE POSSIBLY EXPECT THAT TO
WORK SO THIS BILL FIXES THAT
GAP. AND IN DOING SO GET THIS ON
THE WAY TO NOT HAVING CLEAN
ENERGY JUST DURING THE DAY. BUT
CLEAN ENERGY. OUR TWENTY FOUR
SEVEN. SO MORE GOOD NEWS AND
THIS IMPORTANT RESULT UNDERSTAND
THE P. YOU SEE HAS IT INTEGRATED
RESOURCE PLANNING PROCESS. THAT
SETS GIGI TARGETS FOR EACH OF
THESE ENTITIES. EACH LOAD
SERVING ENTITIES USING AN HOUR
BY HOUR ANALYSIS. OF EACH
ELECTRICITY SUPPLIERS SOURCES OF
ELECTRICITY. AND THE ASSOCIATED
GHG EMISSIONS. SO WHAT THIS BILL
DOES IS IT REQUIRES AND AT
ANALYSIS APPROACH OF WHAT
ACTUALLY HAPPENS TO BE
CONSISTENT WITH THAT PROCESS. SO
AGAIN WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO
HAVE THIS HOURLY ANALYSIS.
BECAUSE FOR EXAMPLE ONE
ELECTRICITY SUPPLIER FOUND THAT
THE REPORTED EMISSIONS WERE
ACTUALLY FIFTEEN TIMES HIGHER
THAN FIFTEEN TIMES HIGHER WHEN
ANALYZED MORE ACCURATELY ON AN
HOUR BY HOUR BASIS RATHER THAN
ON TRADITIONAL REPORTING WHICH
IS DONE ON AN ANNUAL BASIS NOT
OUR BY HARRISON ON ANNUAL BASIS.
SUCH A SHOWS HOW INACCURATE OR
OLD APPROACHES HAVE BEEN. SO
THIS BILL DOESNOT REQUIRE
CHANGES TO ANY PROCUREMENT PLANS
IT JUST ESTABLISHES A FAIR AND
pACCURATE WAY TO MEASURE HELLO
EVERYONE EACH OF THESE LOAD
SERVING ENTITIES ARE DOING. SO
THAT WILL HAVE A TRANSPARENCY
AND ACCOUNTABILITY TOWARDS OUR
GOAL ARE SPECIALLY ASK DR VOTE.

SUBJECT TO APPROPRIATIONS IS
SECURED ACUTE CARE TEACHING

THE PURPOSE OF TRAINING YOU SEE
OUR SCHOOL OF MEDICINE MEDICAL
STUDENTS MEDICAL RESIDENTS AND
MEDICAL FELLOWS. AS SOME OF YOU
MAY RECALL THE SCHOOL OF

ESTABLISHED FOR BUDGETARY
REASONS IN TWO THOUSAND THIRTEEN
AS A COMMUNITY BASED MEDICAL
SCHOOL WITHOUT THE BENEFIT OF A
DEDICATED UC HOSPITAL OR MEDICAL
CENTRE FOR CLINICAL TRAINING AND
EDUCATION OF ITS MEDICAL
STUDENTS AND RESIDENTS. TO DATE
IT IS THE ONLY UC MEDICAL SCHOOL
TO OPERATE WITHOUT A DEDICATED
UC ACADEMIC MEDICAL CENTER.
COLLEAGUES OBVIOUSLY THIS IS
SUBJECT TO APPROPRIATION BUT
THIS IS THE FINAL MILE OF OUR
VERY VERY LONG JOURNEY TO
PROVIDE CRITICAL ACADEMIC
MEDICAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING.

HISTORICALLY THE INLAND EMPIRE
HAS BEEN ONE OF THE MOST
MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED
COMMUNITIES IN THE COUNTRY.
ACCORDING TO THE CALIFORNIA
HEALTH CARE FOUNDATION THE
REGION HAS ONLY THIRTY FIVE
PRIMARY GIPSON POSITIONS PER ONE
HUNDRED THOUSAND PEOPLE COMPARED
TO SEVENTY OR MORE IN OTHER
PARTS OF THE STATE. THE ROLE
NATURE OF OUR AREA BRINGS ABOUT
VERY UNIQUE CHALLENGES THAT
REQUIRE EQUALLY UNIQUE AND
INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS. THE
RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THE DOCTORS
ARE MUCH MORE LIKELY TO STAY IN
PRACTICE WHERE WHEREVER THEY DO
THEIR RESIDENCY. THAT IS WHY
THIS BILL IS SO ESSENTIAL IN WAS
THE INLAND EMPIRE IN THE RIGHT
DIRECTION BY CREATING THE CUTE
CARE TEACHING HOSPITAL IN
RIVERSIDE COUNTY WE MUST DO ALL
THAT WE CAN TO INCREASE ACCESS
TO EQUITABLE QUALITY AND TIMELY
CARE FOR THOSE LIVING IN THE

IMPORTANT THAT OUR GOVERNMENT.

CHEMICALS THAT MAKE OUR
REFRIGERATORS COLD ARE HYDRO
FLUOROCARBONS HSCS AND THEY ARE
A GROUP OF CHEMICALS ALONG WITH
SOME OTHER THINGS THAT ARE
CONSIDERED NOT CONSIDERED THEY
ACTUALLY ARE CHEMICALS WITH WHAT
THEY CALL HIGH GLOBAL WARMING
POTENTIAL WHICH MEANS WELL THEY
SHORT LIFE IN THE ATMOSPHERE IF
THEY'RE RELEASED MAYBE TWENTY
YEARS FOR THAT TWENTY YEARS
THAT THEY'RE IN THE ATMOSPHERE
THEY ARE THOUSANDS OF TIMES
MORE POWERFUL IN TERMS OF
TRAPPING HEAT GASES THEN CO TWO
SO THE BENEFIT OF TRYING TO GET
REDUCE OUR USE OF THESE AND GET
THESE OUT OF THE ATMOSPHERE OR
PREVENT THEM FROM GOING THERE
NOW IS A CRISIS TIME SO THAT
WE CAN TAKE A LITTLE LONGER
FOR THE HARDER TRANSITION
THAT'S MORE ECONOMY WIDE SO
WHAT THIS BILL DOES IS TO HELP
US ACHIEVE THAT BY REQUIRING
WHAT'S CALLED NON RECLAIMED
OR NEW HFC SOLD IN CALIFORNIA
TO MEET A LOWER GLOBAL
WARMING POTENTIAL AND TO ALSO
INCENTIVIZE THE RECLAIMING OF
IT IN OTHER WORDS THE CAPTURING
OF THAT GAS OUT OF POLITICAL
EXISTING RECRUITMENT AND THEN
RE USING IT RATHER THAN HAVING
TO KEEP BUYING NEW I WORKED
WITH THE OPPOSITION WITH OUR
GROCERS WITH THE HEATING AND

CALL DIMINISH CAPACITY SO YOU
KILL SOMEBODY BUT YOU HAD A
DIMINISHED CAPACITY HERE FOR
YOU CANNOT BE AS GUILTY WE'RE
DOING THAT OR IN SOME CASES GO
FREE FOR WHATEVER YOU'RE CRIME
WAS BECAUSE OF YOUR DIMINISH
CAPACITY THOSE WHO SERVE IN
THE MILITARY I THINK THAT ALL
COME HOME WITH A LITTLE BIT
OF DIMINISHED CAPACITY FOR THE
RIGORS OF THEIR TASKS AND THEIR
SACRIFICES BUT CRIMINALS I
DON'T THINK NECESSARILY DESERVE
THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT PETTY
