INFECTIOUS LAUGH. I KNOW YOU'VE
HEARD HER IN THE HALLWAYS. IT'S
IMPOSSIBLE TONIGHT. HEAR THAT
LAUGH, BUT SHE'S ALSO EXTREMELY
PROFESSIONAL. AND DON AND I HAVE
CRIED OVER THE LOSS OF HER
HUSBAND OVER THE YEARS OVER THE
LOSS OF MY FATHER IN LAW. OVER
THE YEARS, WE'VE BEEN THROUGH A
LOT TOGETHER, BUT SHE MAKES SURE
EVERYBODY IN THE OPPOSITE TAKEN
CARE OF. AND IF YOU DON'T KNOW
HER PERSONALLY, I GUARANTEE YOU
YOUR STAFF DOES BECAUSE THE
CAPITAL RESOURCE INSTITUTE
SOLICITED HER HELP AND TEACHING
CLASSES TO MAKE SURE ALL OF YOUR
SCHEDULE EAR'S KNOW WHAT TO DO.
AND HOW TO MAKE SURE THAT YOUR
NEEDS ARE MET. UM AND SHE HAS
DONE A MAGNIFICENT JOB. SHE IS
BELOVED IN THIS BUILDING. SHE'S

FIRST TERM IN THE ASSEMBLY, HE
AND I REACHED A HISTORIC
COMPROMISE ON THE BILL TO
ESTABLISH THIS YEAR IN NEVADA
CONSERVANCY. AND I WENT TO MANY
NEGOTIATING SESSIONS IN HIS
OFFICE, AND DONDA WAS ALWAYS
SMILING, GREETING. I ENJOYED IT
, AND THAT LED TO A VERY CASUAL
FRIENDSHIP THAT HAS GONE FOR 20
YEARS, AND IT'S JUST AS WAS SAID
. YOU CANNOT RUN INTO HER IN THE
CAPITAL WITHOUT A BIG GRIN AND
HELLO. THOSE BLOCK PARTIES SHE
OWNED, AND I THINK EVERYBODY
THAT THAT DID THAT PARTICIPATED
WITH HER AND. I THINK ONE OF THE
GREAT THINGS IN THE LEGISLATURE.
HIS STAFF MEMBERS THAT CUT
ACROSS EVERY DIVIDE AND SHE IS
ONE AND SO SHE WILL BE MISSED,
AND I REALLY HOPE SHE'S NOT A
STRANGER, AND WE STILL HEAR THAT
LAUGH OCCASIONALLY, AND IF
SOMEBODY IS ACTUALLY IN A POST
COVID ERA GOING TO PICK UP THE
BLOCK PARTIES, I HOPE SHE HAS A
LIFETIME FREE PASS. AND IS ABLE
TO COME AND SO I SENT HER MY
CONGRATULATIONS AS WELL. SHE

CAPITAL. YEAH. YEAH.

RECOGNITION OF SENATOR KAMLAGER.
THE FIRST SPEAKER. SENATOR

MIGHT BE FAMILIAR WITH THE
PUPPET SHOWS IN THE VIDEOS THAT
OUR COLLEAGUE DOES. TITLED WATCH
. WEDNESDAY'S TO EXPLAIN HOW
THINGS GET DONE IN THE STATE
CAPITAL. EARLIER THIS YEAR. SHE
DID A HILARIOUS PUPPET SHOW
ABOUT THE STATE BUDGET THAT WENT
VIRAL. ON SOCIAL MEDIA. SO TODAY
, I THOUGHT I WOULD DO A SHORT
PUPPET SHOW OF MY OWN. HEY,
SYDNEY. WHAT'S UP? HEY, NATE.
IT'S YO, WHAT'S UP? WELL,
SYDNEY, WE'RE HERE TO HONOR. THE
FOUR BOLLER YEARS BABY YOU'VE
HAD IN THE CALIFORNIA
LEGISLATURE, INCLUDING THE LAST
YEAR AND A HALF OR SO IN THE
STATE SENATE. FIGHTING FOR
EQUITY AND ENDING DISCRIMINATION
, BABY IT ALL STARTED WITH YOUR
A B 242 AND 2019 AND DISASSEMBLY
. THAT WAS YOUR FIRST PIECE OF
LET MAJOR LEGISLATION
ESTABLISHED THE CURRICULUM. TO
ENSURE THAT ATTORNEYS UNDERSTOOD
IMPLICIT BIAS IN THE CRIMINAL
JUSTICE SYSTEM. A B 2 42 ALSO
ESTABLISHED THAT TRAINING FOR
JUDGES, TRIAL COURT MANAGERS,
SUPERVISORS AND OTHER COURT
STAFF WHO ROUTINELY INTERACT
WITH THE PUBLIC. HOT, THAT WAS
BALLER, BABY. BUT THAT'S NOT ALL
. 2019 YOU RECEIVED THE HUMANE
SOCIETY'S LEGISLATOR OF THE
WORLD WORLD. WHY NOT LEGISLATIVE
LEGISLATOR OF THE YEAR AWARD?
AND IN 2020, YOU AUTHORED THE
CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM MEASURES

SIGNED INTO LAW, PUTTING
REASONABLE LIMITS ON PROBATION

COMPLETED THEIR TERMS AND THEIR

WHERE I AM THE BALLER. HMM YOU
SECURED FUNDINGS FOR THE CITY OF
LOS ANGELES CONQUER KIDS FOR
GROWING COMMUNITIES URBAN
FARMING INITIATIVE. FOR
DESTINATION, CRENSHAW.
CORNERSTONE HOUSING FOR ADULTS
WITH DISABILITIES. AND MORE. AS
I SAID BALLER. YOUR BABY. YOU
GOT IT. EVEN WITHOUT THE
PUPPETS. CITY DOES VIDEOS TO
EXPLAIN WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THE
CAPITAL? BEFORE THE APPROACH
DUMP, SHE EXPLAINED ABOUT THAT
PROCESS. AND SHE HELD UP CELERY.
AND SAID SHE WAS EATING IT. TO
STAY HEALTHY. BECAUSE WE'RE
GOING TO GET FISCAL. WE'RE GONNA
GET FISCAL, AND THEN SHE TALKED
ABOUT AND ANOTHER WATCH
WEDNESDAY MONKEY POX, AND SHE
TOLD ME SHE OUGHT THE VIDEO. SHE
TOLD CALLERS. SO SHE'S PUTTING
THIS OUT, SHE TOLD CALLERS TO
HER OFFICE. TO STOP HARASSING
HER STAFF. WHEN THEY CALLED AND
TO STOP USING MONKEYPOX TO IN
HER WORDS IN BOLD IN YOUR OWN
HOMOPHOBIC TENDENCIES. IN ALL
SERIOUSNESS, SYDNEY YOU HAVE
TRULY AND THAT WAS SERIOUS. YOU
HAVE TRULY MADE A MARK IN YOUR
SHORT TIME HERE IN THE SENATE,
LEADING THE L. A CAUCUS.
CARRYING GROUNDBREAKING
LEGISLATION AND SHARING SOME
VERY POWERFUL AND PASSIONATE
REMARKS ON THE FLOOR. ON A WHOLE
HOST OF THINGS BEYOND JUST YOUR
BILLS. IT'S BEEN A TRUE PLEASURE
WORKING WITH YOU, AND I
ESPECIALLY ENJOYED OUR TIME
TOGETHER, SERVING ON THE
COMMITTEE ON THE REVISION OF THE
PENAL CODE. AND ALSO IN THE
PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE. AND WE
DID THERE. WHAT I KNOW YOU'D
ADVISE EVERYONE HERE ON THIS
FLOOR AS WELL AS YOUR SUCCESSOR.
WHICH IS TO MAKE SOME GOOD
TROUBLE. AND AS YOU REMINDED
SOME OF US LAST NIGHT. WE ARE
FAMILY. MY COLLEAGUES AND I HAVE
GREAT RESPECT FOR YOUR WORK. AND
SO NOW SOON TO BE CONGRESSWOMAN
KAMLAGER, PLEASE GO GET IN SOME
GOOD TROUBLEIN WASHINGTON, D C.
SENATOR BRADFORD. I GOING TO
START WITH APOLOGY AFTER
FOLLOWING THAT? YOU KNOW YOU
MIGHT NOT WANT ME TO SPEAK
SENATOR KAMLAGER, BUT THAT WAS A
GREAT PRESENTATION. BUT I AM
HONORED TO JUST SAY A FEW WORDS
ABOUT MY FRIEND, MY COLLEAGUE.
AND AS WE ALL SAY, WE'RE FAMILY,
BUT SHE IS TRULY MY SISTER. AND
WE HAVE A UNIQUE BOND BECAUSE IN
GREEK NUMB SHE'S A MEMBER OF
ZETA PHI BETA SORORITY, AND I'M
A MEMBER OF PHI BETA SIGMA
FRATERNITY, THE ONLY BROTHER
SISTER ORGANIZATION AND, UH,
GREET THEM. AND SO THAT'S WHERE
I FIRST MET SYDNEY ALMOST 20
YEARS AGO. AND I CALL HER SHE'S
ECLECTIC ELEGANCE. AND SHE'S SO
ARTICULATE AND I JUST LOVE HUMAN
OR SPEAK. I'M GONNA MISS HER ON
THE FLOOR WITH HER PASSION. WHEN
YOU TALK ABOUT A WARRIOR, THAT'S
A WARRIOR RIGHT THERE. SHE'S NOT
AFRAID OF YOU KNOW WHAT I
USUALLY SAY TO HER WHEN I SAY
THAT SAY THAT BECAUSE SHE'S NOT
AFRAID OF ANYTHING. AND SHE HAS
YOUR BACK AND I'M GOING TO MISS
LOOKING ACROSS BID AND APPROACH
BEARD ON CRIMINAL JUDGE. I MEAN,
PUBLIC SAFETY, UH, AND, UH, ALL
THE OTHER COMMITTEES THAT WE
SENT ON GETTING A TO SEE WHERE
SHE IS BECAUSE I KNOW WHEN THERE
IS A TOUGH VOTE. SHE'S GOING TO
BE THERE. SHE'S GONNA FIGHT. SHE
HAS BEEN FIGHTING FOR WOMEN'S
RIGHTS. SINCE I'VE KNOWN HER AND
A LOT OF FOLKS DON'T KNOW. SHE'S
THE ONLY CHILD. OF A VERY
PROMINENT ACTRESS. HER MOTHER'S
A VERY NOTED ACTORS, AND SHE
COULD HAVE EASY GONE IN THAT
VEIN. AND, AS HER MOTHER STATED
SHE LOVED TO READ AND IF YOU
WANT TO HIDE SOMETHING FROM
SYDNEY, DON'T PUT IT IN WRITING
BECAUSE SHE READS EVERYTHING SHE
READS IN COMMITTEE. SHE READS ON
THE FLOOR, SHE READS ON THE
PLANE. I'M LIKE I TAKE A NAP ON
THE PLANE. SHE'S READING THE
WHOLE TIME. AND UH, AND SHE'S
JUST WELL READ ON EVERYTHING
THAT SHE DEALS WITH. SHE'S AN
AMAZING WIFE, A LOVING MOTHER.
AH A RIDE OR DIE FRIEND. AS I
STATED SHE DID AMAZING WORK WHEN
SHE WAS, UH, ASSISTANT TO HOLLY
MITCHELL WHEN THEY RAN CRYSTAL
STAIRS. AND THEN WHEN CHRIS UH
SENATOR, SENATOR MITCHELL WAS
ELECTED TO THE ASSEMBLY AND
SENATE, SHE CAME TO BE HER
DISTRICT DIRECTOR, WHERE SHE WAS
ALWAYS PRESENT IN THE COMMUNITY.
ALWAYS SPEAKING FOR US SPEAKING
UP FOR THE VOICELESS, AND IT'S
GOING TO BE A GREAT LOSS TO THIS
BODY, BUT IT'S GONNA BE A
TREMENDOUS GAIN FOR CONGRESS TO
HAVE SOMEONE WHO WAS JUST
COMMITTED TO THE ISSUES THAT
MATTER MOST, UH AS STATED BY MY
FRIEND FROM BERKELEY FOR
FIGHTING FOR WOMEN'S RIGHTS, SHE
SITS ON THE BOARD PLANNED
PARENTHOOD. WHAT'S ANGELUS? SHE
WAS ON SPARK, WHICH IS A PUBLIC
AGENCY THAT DEALT WITH THE ART.
SHE'S PASSIONATE ABOUT THE ARTS
. HE'S PASSIONATE ABOUT PETS,
AND YOU TALK ABOUT THE VIDEOS
THAT SHE DID ONE OF THE MOST
TOUCHING VIDEOS WITH WHEN SHE
LOST HER DOG. EARLIER THIS YEAR.
AND I DON'T THINK YOU COULD HAVE
BEEN SHOWN MORE LOVE AND
APPRECIATION. EVEN FOR A HUMAN
BEING. IT WAS BEAUTIFUL AND I
CRIED. I WENT OVER AND TOLD HER
I SAID IT WAS ONE OF THE MOST
pBEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE YOU COULD HAVE
EVER MADE, BECAUSE THAT'S WHO
SHE IS. SHE'S A BEAUTIFUL
INDIVIDUAL, INSIDE AND OUT. AND
DON'T LET THAT LITTLE DEMURE.
PRESENTS PHIL PHIL. YOU MEAN
FOOL YOU SHE WILL CUT YOU AND I
MEAN, REALLY, SHE'S THE REAL
DEAL. I DON'T MEAN PHYSICALLY,
BUT I MEAN, SHE WAS SHE WILL CUT
YOU UP. I MEAN, SHE CAN DRESS
YOU UP AND DOWN. I MEAN, SHE'LL
LET YOU KNOW WHERE YOU STAND
YOU. YOU KNOW, IT'S NO, UH,
MISUNDERSTANDING AND WHERE SHE'S
COMING FROM, BUT SHE DOES IT
FROM THE HEART. SHE DOES IT FOR
LOVE. A LOT OF FOLKS DON'T KNOW.
SHE WAS ALSO ASSISTANT TO DELROY
LINDO, ANOTHER VERY PROMINENT
ACTOR. I MEAN, SHE COULD HAVE
GONE IN THAT DIRECTION IF SHE
WANTED TO, BUT THIS IS WHERE HER
PASSION IS SERVING. AND LIKE
MANY OF YOU SHE'S NOT TERMED OUT
. SHE MADE THE DECISION TO GO TO
WASHINGTON. AND THAT END OF
ITSELF SHOWS WHO SHE IS, AND
SHE'S WILLING TO TAKE ON THAT
FIGHT, BECAUSE, AS IT'S NO WAY I
WOULD PROBABLY WANT TO GO TO
WASHINGTON RIGHT NOW IN THE
MIDST OF CRAZINESS, BUT SHE'S
READY FOR IT, AND SHE CAN HANDLE
IT. SHE'S BEEN A GREAT COLLEAGUE
WITH THE LEGISLATIVE BLACK
CAUCUS THAT'S SERVING AS VICE
CHAIR WHILE I'VE BEEN CHEERED.
LIKE I SAID, I COULDN'T HAVE
ASKED FOR MORE. AH, COMMITTED
COLLEAGUE. AND SHE ALMOST SINGLE
HANDEDLY. UH ORGANIZED L. A
COUNTY DELEGATION AND HAS MADE
IT EFFECTIVE AND MADE IT
RELEVANT. UH SOMETHING THAT IT
HADN'T BEEN RECOGNIZED AND IN
DECADES, AND SHE PUT THAT ALL
TOGETHER ALMOST SINGLE HANDEDLY,
AND IT'S BIPARTISAN. AND WE'VE
DEALT WITH EVERYTHING FROM
HOMELESSNESS TO YOU. NAME IT.
SHE'S TACKLED AND BRINGING HIS
CAUCUS TOGETHER IS DELEGATION
TOGETHER. I SHOULD SAY SO SHE
WILL BE MISSED. IT'S GOING TO BE
BIG SHOES TO FILL AND WHOEVER
FIELD TAKES ON THAT ROLE, BUT
YOU GAVE A FINE EXAMPLE AND LAID
A GOOD ROLE MAP ON WHAT
LEADERSHIP LOOKS LIKE. AND LIKE
YOU SAID, I'M GONNA TRULY MISS
YOU. BUT I KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO
GO OFF TO DO GREAT THINGS. LIKE
I SAID HER TENURE HERE IN THE
LEGISLATURE HAS BEEN SHORT. BUT
OUR IMPACT WILL BE LONG LASTING
. AND UH, NOT FORGOTTEN. SO
THANK YOU, MY FRIEND.
SENATOR KAMLAGER. THE FLOOR IS
YOURS. THANK YOU. I'M CLAMPED.
UM. I AM ALWAYS THE OUTLIER. I
WANT TO THANK MY TWO COLLEAGUES.
FOUR. YOUR HEARTFELT WORDS. AND
HUMOR. I WANT TO THANK. THE PRO

ENDURANCE WITH ME. YEAH YOU

GRACIOUS ELOQUENCE OVER THE PAST
FEW DAYS. OF THE OUTGOING
MEMBERS. AND COLLEAGUES WHO
SPOKE ABOUT. OUR THEIR TENURE.
UM. AND THE RECAP WAS THAT
WIECKOWSKI NEEDS A PODCAST. AH!
THAT NIELSEN. SHARED ABOUT
HISTORY AND HONOR. AND THERE
WERE A LITTLE THERE WAS A RECAP
OF BAD BOYS SOMEWHERE IN THERE.
AH, DR PAN. I WASN'T ABLE TO SEE
HIS SHOES, BUT THAT DIDN'T MEAN
THAT WE DIDN'T HEAR ABOUT HIS
KINDNESS AND COMMITMENT TO
CHILDREN. SENATOR LEYVA. AND HER
COMMITMENT TO JUSTICE AND EQUITY
AND KINDNESS AND REMINDING THAT
FOR US AS WELL, SENATOR BOARD
GIS WITH HIS THOUGHTFUL
QUESTIONS IN HIS QUEST. FOR THE
RATIONAL. AND HIS GENTLEMANLY
NOUS ALWAYS. SENATOR MELINDA'S
WHO REALLY IS A PACK OF
DYNAMITE. SENATOR HERTZBERG. WHO
SEEMS TO BE IN THE DRIVER'S
SEAT. NOT JUST FOR. THE
HONORABLE DIME LEE BUT FOR BILLS
AS WELL AND THE FRONT SOMETIMES
IN THE BACK, SOMETIMES IN THE
MIDDLE. AND SENATOR HUESO, WHO
TRULY IS AN HONORABLE AND MOST
INTERESTING MAN AND THE COMMON
THREAD. WHEN I LISTENED WHILE I
WAS OUT WAS THE THREAD OF THANKS
GIVING THANKS. THANKS. AND IT
MADE ME THINK OF A QUOTE THAT UM
, HAS BEEN STAYING WITH ME FOR A
WHILE. NOW IT'S ACTUALLY A QUOTE
FROM MR ROGERS. UH FRED ROGERS.
AND THE QUOTE IS ANYTHING THAT
IS HUMAN. AS MENTIONED HERBAL
AND ANYTHING. THAT IS MENTION
HERBAL. CAN BE MORE MANAGEABLE.
AND HE WAS TALKING ABOUT
FEELINGS, FEELINGS AND FEARS.
AND SO I'D LIKE TO JUST SHARE A
FEW OF MINE IF YOU ALLOW ME. I
HAVE GREAT FEELINGS OF GRATITUDE
AND SADNESS. I'VE HAD A GREAT
STAFF. THAT I WILL BE LEAVING.
AH AND STAFF, YOU KNOW, SUPPORT
ME, BUT STAFF SUPPORT ALL OF US
AND THEY UPHOLD THIS
INSTITUTION. I WANT TO GIVE A
SHOUT OUT TO MY CHIEF OF STAFF

MANY OF YOUR STAFF. HELP OTHERS
MEMBERS STAFF AND SO I JUST WANT
TO THANK YOU ALL FOR HAVING
GREAT TEAMS WITH YOU BECAUSE
YOUR TEAM'S HELP MY TEAM BETTER.
AND THOSE TEAMS. THEY SHOW US
THEIR HEART AND THEIR KINDNESS
AND THEIR COMMITMENT TO THIS
INSTITUTION. I WANT TO SHARE AND
MENTIONED SOME FEELINGS OF HONOR
AND TENSION. I THINK MENTIONED
BY BOTH OF MY COLLEAGUES AND
TALKING ABOUT MY WORK. YOU KNOW,
I LIKE POLICY THAT IS MEANINGFUL
AND COMPLICATED. AND
UNCOMFORTABLE. I KNOW I MAKE
PEOPLE UNCOMFORTABLE. I KNOW I
TALKED ABOUT ISSUES THAT NEED
SUNLIGHT. ISSUES LIKE ADDICTION.
AND POVERTY AND DISCRIMINATION
AND SUBJUGATION. IN PRISON, RAPE
IN PRISON LIFE AND MENTAL
HEALTH. AND POVERTY AND WORKERS
SUICIDE. I MEAN, THERE ARE THERE
ARE NO DAY DAISIES. THERE ARE NO
DAISIES AND THAT LINE UP. OF
ISSUES. MAYBE THE STATE BAR BUT
EVEN THAT'S INTENSE. BUT I CARE
ABOUT THESE ISSUES BECAUSE WE
REALLY TALK ABOUT HIM, AND ALL
OF THESE ISSUES ARE CONNECTED.
TWO STORIES OF REAL PEOPLE WHO
HAVE HAD REAL TRAUMA. IN THEIR
LIFE. BECAUSE THE STATE BECAUSE
POLICIES WEREN'T THERE FOR THEM.
AND I TELL YOU IN THE IN THE
INCARCERATED WORLD, THIS IS A
GROUP OF PEOPLE THAT STILL HAVE
FAITH IN THIS STATE AND IN THE
SYSTEM AND MY GOD. YOU HAVE THE
MOST AMAZING AMOUNT OF
FORGIVENESS. FOR A SYSTEM THAT
RARELY WANTS TO SEE THEM. AS
HUMAN. AND I'M JUST TRYING TO
HONOR I'M JUST TRYING TO HONOR
THOSE STORIES. BECAUSE WHEN
WE'RE HERE, MAKING POLICY IT'S
ABOUT MAKING CALIFORNIA BETTER.
AND CLOSER. SO THE CALIFORNIA
DREAM THAT WE ESPOUSE. THAT MANY
OF US ARE SO GRATEFUL TO ENJOY.
AYE. I WAS SO EXCITED TO HEAR
THE SENATOR FROM JEFFERSON STATE
TALKS ABOUT HOW WE WOULD HAVE
ROCKING TIMES IN THE BACK OF THE
CHAMBERS AND THE PEW. YOU KNOW,
I CAME INTO THE ASSEMBLY. AND I
WAS A CLASS OF ONE. I CAME INTO
THE SENATE AND I WAS A CLASS OF
ONE IN COVID. AND THIS TIME HAS
BEEN ISOLATING FOR ME AND
INCREDIBLY SHORT BECAUSE OF IT.
AND MAYBE I MISSED OUT ON SOME
ADDITIONAL CONNECTIONS. AS THE
GOOD SENATOR FROM GARDENA
MENTIONED. I'M A PROUD MEMBER OF
THE CALIFORNIA LEGISLATIVE BLACK
CAUCUS. AND IN THE CAUCUS, WE
WORKED TO ELEVATE. AFRICAN
AMERICAN ISSUES AND FACES AND
BODIES. AND YOU KNOW, I SAY THIS
ON OCCASION, AS YOU ALL KNOW, I
AM THE ONLY AFRICAN AMERICAN
SENATOR. FEMALE FEMALE SENATOR
HERE. BUT OFTEN IF NOT ALWAYS.
I'M THE ONLY AFRICAN AMERICAN
WOMAN. ON THIS FLOOR ON THE
FLOOR, NOT JUST THE SENATORS.
SOMETIMES THE ONLY AFRICAN
AMERICAN WOMAN ON THE DIESS. IN
COMMITTEE, EVEN WITH COMMITTEE
STAFF PRESENT. NOT WITHSTANDING
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC. I
MENTIONED THAT TO MAKE IT MORE
MANAGEABLE. BECAUSE BELIEVE IT
OR NOT, I HAVE TO REMIND MYSELF
OF THAT. SOMETIMES WHEN WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT HARD ISSUES. AND
YOU KNOW WHEN YOU'RE IN THE
MIDDLE OF SOMETHING AND YOU WANT
TO LOOK AT SOMEONE YOU WANT TO
SEE YOURSELF. YOU WANT TO SEE
YOURSELF? IN A SPACE BECAUSE IT
HELPS YOU. RECOGNIZE THAT IT'S
REAL. AND SOMETIMES IT CAN BE
VERY HARD. DEFINE GRACE IN THIS
SPACE. WHEN YOU LOOK OUT. YOU
SEE NO ONE ELSE THAT LOOKS LIKE
YOU. AND SO IF IT'S HARD FOR ME,
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE HOW IT FEELS
LIKE FOR OTHER STAFF. WHO WORK
IN THIS INSTITUTION THAT ALSO
LOOKED LIKE ME. HUNTING HUNTING
FORM FAMILIAR FACE. TO JUST.
CENTER US IN THIS VERY IMPORTANT
WORK. SO. IN A STATE WITH 40
MILLION PEOPLE. I THINK THERE'S
SOME ROOM FOR A FEW MORE AFRICAN
AMERICAN WOMEN. IN ALL KINDS OF
SPACES, AND I WOULD JUST ASK
THIS BODY TO CONSIDER THAT
BECAUSE IT IS HARD TO HAVE TO
LOOK INTO THE MIRROR. TO FIND A
FRIEND. AND IT'S NOT ABOUT RACE
, BUT IT REALLY IS ABOUT
REPRESENTATION. YOU KNOW? IT'S
ALSO ABOUT DIFFERENCE. AND
DIFFERENCES. BEAUTIFUL.
DIFFERENCE IS A GIFT. IT TRULY
IS. AND IN SPITE OF OUR
DIFFERENCES, RIGHT? RURAL VERSUS
URBAN, COASTAL OR INLAND. RED
VERSUS BLUE DODGERS VERSUS
GIANTS. SOYBEAN VERSUS SILICON.
THOSE DIFFERENCES. ARE WHAT GIVE
THIS BODY ITS TEXTURE. AND THE
OPPORTUNITY. TO REALLY WORK ON
THINGS THAT WILL MAKE A
DIFFERENCE. YOU KNOW, SERVING AS
A STATE SENATOR. IS AN AWESOME
JOB. IT IS AN HONORABLE JOB. AS
SENATOR BORGES SAID. IT IS A JOB
THAT VERY FEW OF US HAVE HAD THE
PRIVILEGE TO SERVE. BUT IT'S NOT
THE BEST JOB. THE BEST JOB. THAT
WE HAVE. IS BEING IN A HEALTHY,
HONEST, MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIP.
WITH SOMEONE WHO LOVES US. AND
THAT JOB. REQUIRES US TO RECEIVE
TO RETURN. AND TO REPLICATE THAT
LOVE. IN KINDNESS. AND IN
EMPATHY. AND IN HONESTY. AND I
THINK THAT YOU WON'T I BELIEVE
THAT TOO. BECAUSE I HAVE FOUND
KINDNESS. AND FRIENDSHIP. HMM.
MANY OF YOU AND I THANK YOU.
FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE BOTTOM OF
MY HEART. THANK YOU.
YEAH RIGHT.
SENATOR KAMLAGER. THANK YOU FOR
SHARING YOUR YOUR HEARTFELT
THOUGHTS. AND KNOW THAT WHEN YOU
GO TO WASHINGTON, D. C YOU CAN

SENATOR CABALLERO THANK YOU,
MADAM PRESIDENT. I RISE TO
PRESENT A B 17 OH, SEVEN ON
BEHALF OF ASSEMBLY,
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S BOERNER HORVATH
, WHICH WOULD PROVIDE A
PERMANENT FUNDING SOURCE FOR THE
SENIOR CITIZENS PROPERTY TAX
POSTPONEMENT PROGRAM. THE PTP BY
AUTHORIZING THE CONTROLLER TO
TRANSFER GENERAL FUND MONIES
WHEN THE PROGRAM'S FUNDING FAR
BELOW FALLS BELOW THE CURRENT
$15 MILLION CAP. THIS PROGRAM
ALLOWS A PERSON WHO IS OVER 62
YEARS OF AGE IS BLIND OR HAS A
DISABILITY TO POSTPONE. PAYMENT
OF THEIR PROPERTY TAXES IF
SPECIFIED INCOME AND HOME EQUITY
REQUIREMENTS ARE MET. THE
DEFERMENT OF PROPERTY TAXES IS
SECURED BY A LIEN AGAINST THE
PROPERTY. THE PROGRAM IS SELF
FUNDED FROM REPAYMENTS FROM
PREVIOUS PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS
AND IT EXISTED SINCE 1977 BUT IN
2009 IT RECEIVED UP UNTIL THEN
IT RECEIVED GENERAL FUND SUPPORT
. UNFORTUNATELY IN 2009 DUE TO
THE RECESSION, THE PROGRAM WAS
SUSPENDED AND NO NEW LOANS WERE
FUNDED. WHEN THE PROGRAM WAS
REINSTATED IN 2016. IT DID NOT
INCLUDE GENERAL FUND SUPPORT,
AND THE PROGRAMS FUND WAS CAPPED
AT $15 MILLION PER YEAR,
REQUIRING ANY FUNDS ABOUT ABOVE
THIS AMOUNT TO BE TRANSFERRED TO
THE GENERAL FUND COLLECTIONS
HAVE DECREASED DUE TO NO NEW
LOANS BEING ISSUED. AND SO THE
PROGRAM HAS BEEN SUSPENDED.
ADDITIONALLY RECENT CHANGES TO
THE PROGRAM HAVE REDUCED LOAN
INTEREST RATES FROM 7% TO 5% AND
THE INCOME THRESHOLD IS NOW SET
TO INCREASE ON AN ANNUAL BASIS,
MEANING THAT MORE PEOPLE WILL BE
ELIGIBLE EACH YEAR WITH A
SHRINKING POOL OF COLLECTION
ACCOUNTS IN THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE
. THE STATE CONTROLLER IS
PROJECTING THE FUND DEFICIT OF
ONE POINT NINE MILLION IN UM,
BETWEEN 14 TO 2014 TO 2025 IF
THERE IS NO ALTERNATIVE FUNDING
SOURCE, THE PROGRAM WILL BE
UNABLE TO APPROVE NEW NEW
POSTPONEMENTS, POTENTIALLY
CAUSING MORE HARM TO THOSE
VULNERABLE INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE
COME TO RELY ON THE ASSISTANT.
THE PROGRAM CAN PROVIDE A B 17.
OH, SEVEN WILL ENSURE THE
PROGRAM IS ABLE TO MEET THE
DEMANDS OF ALL THOSE WHO ARE
ELIGIBLE ELIGIBLE PER BY
PROVIDING A RELIABLE SOURCE OF
FUNDING. THIS BILL WILL BE WILL
REQUIRE TRANSFER FROM THE
GENERAL FUND TO THE PROPERTY TAX
POSTPONEMENT AND TO BRING THE
FUND BALANCE TO $15 MILLION IN
THE YEAR THAT THE BALANCE IS
LESS THE PTP FUND WOULD STILL
TRANSFER BALANCES IN EXCESS OF
15 MILLION TO THE GENERAL FUND.
THIS WILL RESULT IN THE PROPERTY
TAX PUMP POSTPONEMENT FUND
