THANK YOU, MADAM. PRESIDENT
MEMBERS, PLEASE TODAY PRESENT A
J. R 22, WHICH IS BACK ON
CONCURRENCE. THIS WAS
INTRODUCING THE ANNIVERSARY OF
THE CAPITAL INSURRECTION TO
CONDEMN THE VIOLENT TREASONOUS
INSURRECTION AT THE UNITED
STATES CAPITOL OCCURRED A YEAR
AGO. THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF A
SUSTAINED ATTACK ON DEMOCRACY.
SINCE THE RIOTS, COUNTLESS STATE
LEGISLATURES HAVE FOUGHT TO ROLL
BACK VOTING RIGHTS. ELECTED
LEADERS HAVE HAVE REFUSED TO
ACKNOWLEDGE THE LEGITIMACY OF
FAIR AND FREE ELECTIONS, WHILE
OTHERS CONTINUE PROMOTING
CONSPIRACY THEORIES AND
MISINFORMATION THAT WEAKENS OUR
FAITH IN GOVERNMENT. IN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA. WE NEED TO
BE A MODEL OF DEMOCRACY WHERE
POLITICAL VIOLENCE VOTER
SUPPRESSION LIES, MISINFORMATION
IS NOT TOLERATED. THIS
RESOLUTION REMINDS, UH AS HOW
FRAGILE OUR DEMOCRACY IS. AND
THAT IT MUST BE PROTECTED. I
BELIEVE PEOPLE OF ALL POLITICAL
IDEOLOGIES NEED TO BE ON THE
RECORD. RECOGNIZING OUR
DEMOCRATIC ELECTORAL PROCESS IS
A SACRED INSTITUTION. AND
UNEQUIVOCALLY OPPOSING EFFORTS
TO HARM OUR DEMOCRACY. THIS
RESOLUTION IS TO HONOR THE LAW
ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS WHO
HEROICALLY PROTECTED THE CAPITOL
THAT DAY. WE RECOGNIZE THE
COURAGE, BRAVERY AND SACRIFICE
OF THOSE WHO WERE INJURED AND
KILLED TRYING TO PROTECT UNITED
STATES CAPITOL AND HONOR THOSE
INDIVIDUALS ON THE FIRST
ANNIVERSARY OF THE INSURRECTION.
I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR I

SENATOR WIENER. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT ARRIVES TO PRESENT A B
10 14 ON BEHALF OF
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S MCCARTY, WHICH
MAKES THE LEGAL CANNABIS
INDUSTRY MORE COMPETITIVE
AGAINST THE ILLICIT MARKET.
CURRENTLY LICENSED RETAILER CAN
ONLY CARRY UP TO $5000 WORTH OF
CANNABIS GOODS DURING DELIVERY.
THIS IS ABOUT ONE SMALL
BRIEFCASE OF CANNABIS PRODUCTS.
DELIVERY DRIVERS OFTEN RUN OUT
OF PRODUCT AND ARE FORCED TO
RETURN TO THE RETAILER TO
RETRIEVE MORE. CREATING
UNNECESSARY TRIPS. LACK OF
ACCESS INCENTIVIZES PEOPLE TO
PURCHASE FROM THE ILLICIT MARKET
, WHICH IS UNREGULATED AND
TESTED AND PUTS CALIFORNIANS AT
RISK. MAYBE 10 14 ALLOWS
LICENSED RETAILERS TO CARRY UP
TO $10,000 WORTH OF CANNABIS
PRODUCTS, UM, AND ENSURES THE

RELATING TO ELECTIONS, SENATOR
DURAZO. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT ON BEHALF OF
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S CERVANTES 13 A
B 13 OH, SEVEN WILL CREATE AN
INDEPENDENT CITIZENS
REDISTRICTING COMMISSION FOR THE
RIVERSIDE COUNTY BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS, BEGINNING WITH THE
2030 ROUND OF REDISTRICTING.
LAST YEAR, THE RIVERSIDE COUNTY
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS VOTED FOR
ONE TO ADOPT A SUPERVISORIAL
DISTRICT MAP. UH REDISTRICTING
THAT FRACTURES THE LATINO
COMMUNITY, THE LOOTING THE
COMMUNITY'S VOTING POWER. THIS
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH STATE AND
FEDERAL LAW. CLEARLY A LIST
ILLUSTRATES BY AN INDEPENDENT
CITIZENS REDISTRICTING
COMMISSION IS NEEDED TO DRAW
FAIR MAPS. MAYBE 13. OH, SEVEN,
WILL CREATE SUCH A COMMISSION,
AND BY DOING SO RETURN THE POWER
TO DRAW DISTRICT LINES WHERE IT
BELONGS WITH THE CITIZENS OF
HERBICIDE COUNTY COMMISSIONER
FIRST BE CONSTITUTED IN THE
2030. ROUND OF REDISTRICTING. IT
IS MODELED AFTER THE
COMMISSION'S IN LOS ANGELES AND
SAN DIEGO. THIS COMMITTEE DID A
GREAT DEAL OF GOOD WORK AND THEN
HELPING ENACT THOSE TWO BILLS IN
RECENT YEARS IF OUR TWO MOST
POPULOUS COUNTIES LOS ANGELES
AND SAN DIEGO CAN USE
INDEPENDENT COMMISSIONS, IT IS
TIME FOR RIVERSIDE, OUR FOURTH
LARGEST TO JOIN THEM. THANK YOU
AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR
VOTE. THANK YOU, SENATOR DURAZO
MEMBERS DISCUSSION OR DEBATE.
SEE SENATOR BORGIAS. MADAM
PRESIDENT. I JUST RISE IN
OPPOSITION. I KNOW WE SEEM TO BE
GOING THROUGH COUNTING BY COUNTY
AND IT'S A SEDUCTIVE PROCESS. IF
YOU DON'T LIKE HOW DISTRICTS ARE
BEING MADE AT THE SUPERVISORY
LEVEL, THEN YOU COME UP WITH A
THIRD PARTY TO INITIATE THE
REDRAWING OF MAPS, BUT I WOULD
LIKE TO RECOMMEND NOT JUST THE
FLOOR JOCKEY BUT THE FLOOR
AUTHOR THAT THERE ARE LEGAL
VENUES AND OPPORTUNITIES THAT
SHOULD BE EXHAUSTED. BECAUSE THE
PRESUMPTION THAT THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS OR THE RELEVANT
ENTITY CANNOT COME UP WITH
LEGITIMATE DISTRICTS. I THINK,
UH, I THINK IT'S UNFORTUNATE. I
BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE LEGAL
MECHANISMS AND GUARDRAILS IN
PLACE THAT THE POWER IS VESTED
IN THESE BODIES TO DO EXACTLY AS
THEY HAVE BEEN DOING IT FOR THE
LAST SO MANY DECADES IF NOT OVER
100 YEARS, THEN I WOULD
RECOMMEND THAT USED LEGAL
GUARDRAILS ALREADY IN PLACE TO
CHALLENGE THE LEGALITY, WHETHER
IT BE ON STATE GROUNDS OR
FEDERAL GROUNDS IF CERTAIN
COMMUNITIES OF INTEREST OR
BIFURCATED, NOT CREATE ANOTHER
LAYER OF BUREAUCRACY. THANK YOU,
SENATOR BORGIAS, SENATOR ROTH.
THANK YOU. MADAM PRESIDENT
REPRESENTING RIVERSIDE COUNTY. I
WANTED TO STAND UP AND WITHOUT
ADOPTING THE SPECIFIC COMMENTS
REFERENCED BY THE FLOOR MANAGER
AND PRESENTING THE BILL WITH
RESPECT TO THE EFFORTS OF THE
SITTING BOARD OF SUPERVISORS. I
THINK ALL PARTIES ON BOTH SIDES
OF THIS ISSUE WORKED DILIGENTLY.
THROUGH THE PROCESS TO ESTABLISH
DISTRICTS IN RIVERSIDE COUNTY.
THAT'S NOT TO SAY IMPROVEMENT.
SHOULD NOT HAVE HAVE BEEN MADE
AND. THAT DISTRICT LINES SHOULD
NOT HAVE BEEN DRAWN IN A
DIFFERENT MANNER. BUT I THINK
THAT THIS IS A GOOD BILL. I
COMMEND THE AUTHOR ON HER
EFFORTS TO TRY TO BRING
REDISTRICTING TO OUR COUNTY. AND
I FULLY SUPPORT THIS BILL AND
REQUEST YOUR I VOTE. THANK YOU,
SENATOR ROTH MEMBERS FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE, SENATOR
MELINDA'S. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN

ANALYSIS THAT TALKS ABOUT THE 14
MEMBERS THAT WOULD COMPRISE THIS
BOARD, NINE OF WHICH WOULD ONLY
BE NECESSARY TO APPROVE THESE
MAPS, NONE OF WHICH WOULD HAVE
TO BE REPUBLICANS, SO I'M NOT
SURE IN THE FLOOR MANAGER'S
COMMENTS TALKING ABOUT FAIRNESS
, I'M NOT SURE HOW THAT'S FAIR
THAT YOU WOULD COMPLETELY
ELIMINATE ANY REPUBLICAN VOICE
IN THE DRAWING OF THESE DISTRICT

KINDERGARTEN CENTER. RUBIO THANK
YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. LADIES AND
GENTLEMEN OF THE SENATE TODAY I
RISE TO PRESENT A B 1973 A BILL
TO EXPAND ACCESS TO FULL DAY
KINDERGARTEN PROGRAMS FOR THEY
KINDER PROGRAMS GIVE CHILDREN
THE TIME THEY NEED TO ENGAGE IN
MEANINGFUL LEARNING AND
PLAYTIME. FOUR DAY KINDERGARTEN
LEADS TO GREATER SCHOOL
READINESS, SELF CONFIDENCE IN
ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT COMPARED TO
PART TIME PROGRAMS. FOR WORKING
FAMILIES A FULL DAY.
KINDERGARTEN MEANS MORE
CONVENIENT PICKUP TIMES AND
FEWER HOURS OF EXPENSIVE AFTER
SCHOOL CHILDCARE. DESPITE THE
EVIDENCE, CALIFORNIA DOES NOT
REQUIRE DISTRICTS TO OFFER FULL
DAY KINDER PROGRAMS. WHILE MOST
SCHOOLS OFFER FULL DAY PROGRAMS
AROUND 20% ONLY OFFER PART TIME
DAY PROGRAMS. A B 1973 REQUIRES
DISTRICTS TO OFFER AT LEAST ONE
FULL DAY KINDERGARTEN PROGRAM AT
EACH HIGH NEEDS SCHOOL BY 2027
2028 SCHOOL YEAR AND AT ALL
SCHOOLS BY 2030 AND 31 FULL DAY
KINDER IS A WIN WIN THAT SETS

BY ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S SALAS AND
ACT RELATING TO ELECTIONS.
SENATOR DURAZO. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT. I AM PROUD TO PRESENT
A B 24 94 SIMPLE BILL THAT
CREATES AN INDEPENDENT
REDISTRICTING COMMISSION FOR
CURRENT COUNTY. MODEL AFTER THE
STATE COMMISSION THAT CALIFORNIA
VOTERS APPROVED IN 2008. THE
INDEPENDENT COMMISSION WILL BE
MADE UP OF REPUBLICANS DEMOCRATS
AND DECLINED TO STATE VOTERS WHO
LIVE IN CURRENT COUNTY. THIS
INDEPENDENT COMMISSION WILL
PROTECT TAXPAYERS FROM HAVING
THEIR HARD EARNED DOLLARS WASTED
ON LAWSUITS LIKE THE ONE IN 2018
, WHERE CURRENT COUNTY WAS SUED
FOR NOT HAVING FAIR POLITICAL
MAPS. ESTABLISHING AN
INDEPENDENT REDISTRICTING
COMMISSION AND CURRENT COUNTY
WILL HELP CREATE FAIR ELECTORAL
DISTRICTS AND ENSURE THAT ALL
VOICES THROUGHOUT OUR COMMUNITY
WILL BE HEARD AND RESPECTED. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR I VOTE
AND IMMEDIATE TRANSMITTAL TO THE
ASSEMBLY. THANK YOU, SENATOR
DURAZO MEMBERS DISCUSSION OR
DEBATE. SEEING AND HEARING THAT
SENATOR GROVE I KNOW. I'M SORRY.
SOMETIMES IT'S HARD TO SEE
THROUGH ALL THE GLASS. THANK
YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. I RISE IN
OPPOSITION OF THIS BILL JUST
NINE MONTHS AGO IN KERN COUNTY
MAY BE DIFFERENT THAN THE OTHER
COUNTIES THAT HAVE HAD THIS
REDISTRICTING COMMISSION ON
THEM. BUT JUST NINE MONTHS AGO,
CURRENT COUNTY BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS UNDERTOOK AN OPEN
AND FAIR REDISTRICTING PROCESS
USING THE 2020 CENSUS DATA. THEY
SPEND AN EXTREMELY LARGE AMOUNT
OF MONEY ON THIS PROCESS. WITH
EXTENSIVE, INFINITE INPUT FROM
THE COUNTY VOTERS AND DILIGENTLY
FOLLOWING THE LETTER OF THE LAW,
THE SUPERVISORIAL REDISTRICTING
BOUNDARIES WERE APPROVED TO GIVE
US A NOTE ANOTHER WHAT YOU WOULD
CALL A VR A DISTRICT UM THE
CURRENT COUNTY BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS HAVE GONE ABOVE AND
BEYOND. TO ENSURE THAT THIS
WE'VE BEEN IN COMPLIANCE WITH
THE CONSTITUTION'S 14TH
AMENDMENT IN THE FEDERAL VOTING
RIGHTS ACT OF 1965. SO I GUESS I
DON'T KNOW WHY THIS BILL IS
BEING BROUGHT FORWARD. NOTHING
ABOUT CURRENT COUNTY HAS THAT
THAT WE'VE DONE IS SUGGEST THAT
OUR WE HAVE OUR OWN
REDISTRICTING COMMISSION. WE
ACTUALLY GOT INPUT FROM THE
VOTERS. IT CREATED ANOTHER
DISTRICT IN A PREDOMINANTLY
LATINO. UH COMMUNITY LIKE
DELANOE, MCFARLANE AND SHAFTER,
WHICH WERE BROUGHT TOGETHER WITH
ARVIN AND LAMONT. WHICH IS A
HIGH HIGH VOLUME OF LATINO
FAMILIES THAT ACTUALLY VOTED IN
THE LAST ELECTION, AND THEY WERE
ABLE TO SELECT THE PERSON TO
REPRESENT THEM, WHICH WAS DAVID
COUCH IS WHO THEY CHOSE. SO I
GUESS I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY
WE'RE BEIG THIS BRINGING THIS
FORWARD. FORCING THIS BILL ON MY
CONSTITUENTS CAN RESULT IN
ANOTHER PARTISAN COMMISSION,
CREATING DISTRICT BOUNDARIES FOR
WHAT ARE CURRENTLY FUNDAMENTALLY
NON PARTISAN SUPERVISORIAL
DISTRICTS. THIS BILL WILL DO ALL
OF THIS AND MAKE OUR COUNTY
TAXPAYERS FOOT THE BILL. UM I
REALIZED THERE IS A SMALL AMOUNT
OF MONEY IN THE BUDGET FOR THIS,
BUT IT DOESN'T ADDRESS THE ISSUE
THAT WE JUST WENT THROUGH THIS
PROCESS AND CREATED A SEPARATE
VR A PER SE VOTING DISTRICT WITH
FARMING TOWNS AND COMMUNITIES,
UM, INCLUDED IN ONE SPECIFIC
DISTRICT. THIS THIS
REDISTRICTING COMMISSION THAT
WAS PUT TOGETHER BY OUR COUNTY
SUPERVISORS IN THE COUNTY BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS, DEMOCRAT AND
REPUBLICAN COUNTY BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS VOTED UNANIMOUSLY TO
APPROVE THESE BOUNDARY LINES. UM
AND LIKE I SAID IT WAS A
BIPARTISAN VOTE. IT HAD 100%
PARTICIPATION, AND IT HAD 100%
APPROVAL RATE BY OUR COUNTY
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AGAIN. WE
JUST WENT THROUGH THIS PROCESS
MAY NOT BE LIKE THE OTHER
COUNTIES. RIVERSIDE I DON'T KNOW
IF THEY'VE GONE THROUGH THIS
PROCESS, BUT WE HAVE AND I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR A NO VOTE.
THANK YOU, SENATOR GROVE MEMBERS
ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION OR DEBATE
SEEING AND HEARING NONE. SENATOR
DRAWS A WOULD YOU LIKE TO CLOSE
? YES THANK YOU VERY MUCH IS MY
UNDERSTANDING THAT COUNTY BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS CURRENT COUNTY
HAS A HISTORY OF
DISENFRANCHISING VOTERS OF COLOR
. CURRENT COUNTY HAD TO BE
LEGALLY COMPELLED TO DRAW SECOND
VOTING RIGHTS AT ACT DISTRICT.
UM LATINOS HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO
ELECT THE CANDIDATE OF CHOICE IN
DISTRICT FOUR, AND THE LAWSUIT
HAVE COST TAXPAYERS $12 MILLION
THAT COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER
SPENT ON SERVICES FOR RESIDENTS.

ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S MCCARTY AND ACT
RELATING TO TRANSPORTATION
ELECTRIFICATION. SENATOR ALLEN
MEMBERS, I RISE TO PRESENT A B
2700 BILL TO ENSURE CALIFORNIA'S
ELECTRICAL GRID. IS XEV READY?
WE KNOW THAT CALIFORNIA'S A
GLOBAL LEADER IN TACKLING
CLIMATE CHANGE AND LEADS THE
NATION IN SETTING AND
MAINTAINING EMISSION STANDARDS,
BUT THE TRANSPORTATION SECTOR
REMAINS OUR PRIMARY DRIVER OF
POLLUTION AND GREENHOUSE GAS
EMISSIONS. AND CALIFORNIA'S GOAL
OF TRANSITIONING TO ZERO
EMISSION VEHICLES IS CRITICAL TO
PROTECT PUBLIC HEALTH AND STEM
THE EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE,
BUT IT WILL PUT NEW DEMANDS ON
OUR ELECTRICAL GRID AS WE'VE ALL
BEEN DISCUSSING. SO AS TO MEET
INCREASED ELECTRICITY DEMAND.
MOST HEAVY DUTY CHARGING
STATIONS WILL REQUIRE UPGRADES,
WHICH CAN TAKE YEARS TO
COMPLETE. BY SHARING FLEET DATA
THAT'S ALREADY BEEN COLLECTED
WITH UTILITIES. THIS BILL WILL
ENABLE PROACTIVE GRID PLANNING
AND KEEP CALIFORNIA ON TRACK
TOWARDS ITS AMBITIOUS TARGETS.
TO COMMON SENSE STEP THAT ALIGNS
WITH CALIFORNIA'S GRID PLANNING
PROCESSES WITH THE STATE'S XEV
AIR QUALITY AND CLIMATE GOALS,
AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR MY
VOTE. THANK YOU, SANDRA ALLEN
MEMBERS DISCUSSION OR DEBATE.
SENATOR GROVE. AND I APPRECIATE

FREIGHT TRUCK CHARGING STATION
ONE MILE OFF IN 99 SHOULD BE UP

STATION. IT'S PRETTY INCREDIBLE

ACTUALLY RELATING TO CRIMES,
SENATOR KAMLAGER GOOD AFTERNOON
, MADAM PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS ON
BEHALF OF ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S
MCCARTY, I RISE TO PRESENT A B
27 78. A BILL WHICH WOULD REDUCE
THE POTENTIAL FOR UNCONSCIOUS
BIAS IN OUR CRIMINAL JUSTICE
SYSTEM. RACIAL BIAS IMPACTS
DECISIONS AT EVERY LEVEL OF THE
CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM, BOTH
CONSCIOUSLY AND UNCONSCIOUSLY.
THIS IS ESPECIALLY PROMINENT IN
THE INITIAL CHARGING STAGE OF
THE PROSECUTION. A B 27 78 WOULD
REQUIRE THE DOJ TO DEVELOP AN
ISSUE RACE BLIND CHARGING
GUIDELINES FOR PROSECUTORS TO
IMPLEMENT IN THEIR OFFICES. THIS
BILL HAS UNANIMOUS BIPARTISAN
SUPPORT AND WILL HELP PREVENT
UNCONSCIOUS BIAS IN OUR JUSTICE
SYSTEM. I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR

ACT RELATING TO REAL PROPERTY.
SKINNER THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT MEMBERS A B 13 70 18
37 SCUSE ME CLOSES LOOPHOLES IN
OUR EXISTING FORECLOSURE AUCTION
PROCESS. THE PURPOSE OF
MODIFYING THE AUCTIONS, WHICH WE
DID A FEW YEARS AGO WAS TO GIVE
A FAIR CHANCE FOR AFFORDABLE
HOUSING ENTITIES, TENANTS AND
OTHERS TO PURCHASE A FORECLOSED
HOME. BUT WHAT WE'VE FOUND NOW
IS THERE'S A LOOPHOLE IN THE
LAW, WHICH SOME HAS LED TO ABUSE
. THERE ARE NONPROFITS BEING
FORMED TO UTILIZE THE NEW SYSTEM
, BUT THEIR REAL INTENT AND
THERE WHAT THEY'VE BEEN DOING IS
PURCHASING AND THEN FLIPPING THE
HOUSES FOR PROFIT. AND, UH, WELL
, CERTAINLY PEOPLE CAN STILL
PURCHASE UNDER THE FORECLOSURE
AND DO THAT. THAT WASN'T THERE.
THE PROCESS THEY'RE USING IS ONE
THAT WE CREATED FOR A SPECIFIED
PURPOSE. SO A B 18 37 FIXES IT
BY REVISING THE DEFINITION OF AN
ELIGIBLE NONPROFIT,
STRENGTHENING ENFORCEMENT AND
WITH THAT, I ASK FOR YOUR VOTE.

MADAM SECOND SENATOR DURAZO.
MADAM SECRETARY. PLEASE READ
ASSEMBLY BILL 21 83 BY
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S STONE, AN ACT
RELATING TO EMPLOYMENT, SENATOR
DURAZO. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT. SENATORS I WANT TO
BEGIN BY ACKNOWLEDGING THE
ENORMOUS WORK THAT
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S MARK STONE, THE
AUTHOR OF THE BILL, PUT INTO
THIS ENORMOUS TÌM. AND PASSION.
AS WE DEAL WITH THE LAST MINUTE
RUSH OF LEGISLATION. IT'S PRETTY
EASY TO FORGET THE MANY MONTHS
THAT PRECEDED THE DAY WE
ACTUALLY VOTE. MARK STONE BEGAN
NEGOTIATING WITH THE GOVERNOR'S
OFFICE LAST FEBRUARY. AND WHAT
WE HAVE BEFORE US TODAY IS THE
RESULT OF THOSE EFFORTS. SIMPLY
PUT. THE BILL BEFORE YOU
SATISFIES THE ISSUES GOVERNOR
NEWSOM IDENTIFIED IN HIS VETO
MESSAGE LAST YEAR. THE BILL
BEFORE US HAS 100% OF THE NEW
FRAMEWORK. THE GOVERNOR PROPOSED
AND THIS BILL REFLECTS AGREEMENT
ON 90% OF THE DETAILS. 10% WERE
NOT RESOLVED. SO THE FARM
WORKERS WENT TO ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S
STONE ASKED HIM TO SUNSET. THEIR
VERSION OF THE UNRESOLVED
DETAILS. THIS BILL IN THIS FORM
, GIVE FARM WORKERS A CHANCE. TO
FIX A SYSTEM. THAT HAS NOT
WORKED FOR A VERY LONG TIME. LET
ME REMEMBER SOME OF CALIFORNIA'S
HISTORY HERE. THE ORIGINAL
AGRICULTURAL LABOR RELATIONS
ACT. BECAME LAW IN 1975. WHEN
14% OF CALIFORNIA'S FARM WORKERS
WERE UNDOCUMENTED. 86% BACK THEN
WERE LIKE ME AND MY FAMILY. WE
WEREN'T VULNERABLE TO THE FEAR
OF DEPORTATION. TODAY. 70% OF
FARM WORKERS ARE UNDOCUMENTED
AND COMPLETELY VULNERABLE.
INTIMIDATION AND FEARS OF
DEPORTATION. IT'S TOO CONVENIENT
TO IGNORE THEIR REALITY. WHEN WE
SIT DOWN TO EAT THE FOOD, THEY
BRING US THEIR FEARS ARE ROOTED
IN THOUSANDS OF TIMES.
FARMWORKERS WHO SPOKE UP GOT
SHIPPED OUT. I REMEMBER AS I
THINK ALL OF YOU DO DURING THE
PANDEMIC. WHEN I STAND IN LINE
AND GET INTO THE GROCERY STORE.
AND I WENT THROUGH EACH AISLE
AND SAW THE LACK OF TOILET
PAPER. THE LACK OF THIS. THE
LACK OF THAT. THERE WAS NEVER
EVER A LACK OF FOOD. IN THOSE
GROCERY STORES FOR ME TO FEED MY
FAMILY. FARM WORKERS MARCHED 335
MILES IN THE HEAT TO ASK EACH OF
US AND THE GOVERNOR. TO GIVE
THEM A CHANCE. TO TRY TO CHANGE
A SYSTEM. NOT A BAD ACTOR SYSTEM
AND CHANGE IT IN A WAY THAT
WORKS FOR THEM. I DON'T THINK
ANYONE CAN POINT TO ANY TIME.
WHEN FARM WORKERS HAVE EVER
ASKED ANY LEGISLATOR. FOR
GOVERNOR FOR TOO MUCH. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR VOTE.
THANK YOU, SENATOR DURAZO
MEMBERS DISCUSSION OR DEBATE.
SEE SENATOR GROVE. THANK YOU,
MADAM PRESIDENT. I RESPECTFULLY
RISING OPPOSITION OF 21 83. IT
PROPOSES, UM THAT AGRICULTURE
EMPLOYEES WILL VOTE FOR
UNIONIZATION THROUGH A CARD
CHECK SYSTEM, AND THE SYSTEM
WILL TAKE AWAY THE EMPLOYEE'S
ABILITY TO PRIVATELY VOTE. TO
VOTE IN PRIVATE LIKE WE DO WHEN
WE GO TO ELECTIONS OFFICE AND WE
GO BEHIND THE CURTAIN OR WE VOTE
FROM HOME OR WE VOTE IN THE BOX
WITH THE SIDES NEXT TO US. THIS
BILL TAKES AWAY THAT ABILITY FR
FARM WORKERS TO VOTE PRIVATELY
BY REPLACING THE CURRENT WAY.
THE VOTING THROUGH THE SECRET
BALLOT BOX IS A MUCH LESS
PRIVATE REPRESENTATION ON THE
CARD. IT WILL OPEN THE DOOR TO
EMPLOYEES AND THEIR FAMILIES TO
BE PRESSURED BY LABOR AND OTHER
ORGANIZATIONS. THIS BILL STACKS
THE DECK AGAINST FARMERS AND
REQUIRING EMPLOYERS TO POST AND
UNREASONABLE BOND IF THEY WANT
TO CHALLENGE THE SUBMITTED
CARDS. THE AGRICULTURAL BUSINESS
IS, UM THE ONES THAT WE RELY ON
SPECIFICALLY DURING THE PANDEMIC
AND FOR THE GLOBAL FOOD CHAIN OF
FLOAT ALREADY EXPERIENCING A
BURDEN DUE TO EXTREME DROUGHT
AND OVER 800,000 ACRES ALREADY
FOLLOWED. THE TRUTH IS, IS THAT
THE U. F W HAS NOT BEEN
SUCCESSFUL IN ORGANIZING
FARMWORKERS IN THE CENTRAL
VALLEY FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS
, INCLUDING THAT FARMERS AND
FARM WORKERS WORKED TOGETHER IN
THE INTEREST OF MUTUALLY HAVING
THE BENEFIT OF THAT FARM BEING
SUCCESSFUL. FARMERS IN THE
CENTRAL VALLEY PROVIDE
FARMWORKERS WITH, UH EXCELLENT
WAGE AND PAGES AND BENEFITS. A
LOT OF THE FARM WORKERS LIKE,
UM, PARAMOUNT, WONDERFUL COMPANY
AND ALSO GRIM WAY WHO STARTED
SCHOOLS, PRIVATE CHARTER SCHOOLS
SO THAT KIDS COULD GET A VERY
GOOD EDUCATION ALLOW THAT TO BE
WITH THEIR WORKERS FIRST, BEFORE
ANYONE ELSE CAN BE PLACED. AND
THIS BILL DEAF SEPARATELY TRIES
TO REVIVE A FAILED UNION THAT
HAS FAILED TO UNIONIZE FARM
WORKERS IN THE CENTRAL VALLEY. I
HAVE TO REMIND YOU OF
LEGISLATION THAT WAS PASSED AND
HOW THE U F W CAME TO THIS
BUILDING WHEN I WAS IN THE
ASSEMBLY, AND THERE WAS A LONG
DRAWN OUT BATTLE WITH THE
GROWLING FARM WORKERS. SILVIA
LOPEZ, ONE OF THE INDIGENOUS
INDIVIDUALS FROM MEXICO, WHO
CAME HERE FOR A BETTER LIFE WAS
THE LEADER OF THIS MOVEMENT WITH
THE GROWING FARMWORKERS. SHE'S
ABOUT BY FOOT TALL AND SHE'S
REAL PETITE, AND SHE GATHERED
SIGNATURES FROM HER COLLEAGUES.
HER COLLEAGUES THAT SHE WORKED
WITH IN THE FIELD TO STOP THIS
FORCE OF UNIONIZATION. WHEN THE
UNION THOUGHT THAT THEY WERE
GOING TO LOSE THAT THEY CAME TO
THIS BILL AND OUR PREVIOUS
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S. MS GONZALEZ
RAN A PIECE OF LEGISLATION TO
FORCE GROWLING FARMWORKERS INTO
THIS UNION POSITION. THEY FILED
THE LAWSUIT, AND THEY WON
AGAINST THE AGAINST THE
CALIFORNIA STATE GOVERNMENT.
4000 FARM WORKERS ALSO. SIGNED
SIGNATURES, SAYING THAT THEY
WANTED A FAIR ELECTION TO BE
ABLE TO VOTE THE UNION OUT OR
NOT SUPPORT THE UNION
REPRESENTATION OF THEIR FARM
THEIR FARMING ACTIVITIES. THEY
ACTUALLY HAD A VOTE. IT WANTS
THE SIGNATURES WERE PROCESSED.
THEY HAD A VOTE, AND THEY VOTED
TO DE CERTIFY, BUT THAT VOTE BY
THIS PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATION WAS
RENDERED IN INACTIVE. YOU COULD
NOT, WE WERE NOT GOING TO. WE
WERE NOT GOING TO TAKE THAT
VOTE. THEY DEEMED THIS
ADMINISTRATION IN THE GARB
DEEMED THAT THIS LITTLE FIVE FT.
INDIGENOUS HISPANIC WOMAN FORCED
ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE BITE
INTERROGATION AND EVERYTHING
ELSE THAT THEY COULD THINK OF TO
SIGN AND VOTE TO GET THE UNION
OUT OF THERE. THE U. F W ANOTHER
BALLOT OR ANOTHER VOTE. 2.5
YEARS LATER WAS OVERSEEN BY THIS
ADMINISTRATION IN THE D I R. THE
DIRECTOR OF INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS
, CHRISTINE BAKER. SHE CAME DOWN
TO THE CENTRAL VALLEY. SHE
BROUGHT A TEAM OF LEGAL EXPERTS
AND PEOPLE THAT SPOKE ENGLISH
AND SPANISH AND THIS
ADMINISTRATION WITH YALE RB IN
VISALIA. THEY LRB OFFICE IN
VISALIA OVERSAW THIS ELECTION TO
MAKE SURE AND ENSURE THERE WAS
NO FRAUD AND THAT NO ONE WAS
INTIMIDATED AGAIN. 4000 GERAWAN
FARM WORKERS, ALMOST 5000 FARM
WORKERS VOTED TO NOT CERTIFY THE
U. F W AS A REPRESENTATIVE FOR
THEM. THEN THOSE VOTES WHEN THEY
REALIZED AGAIN THE GOVERNMENT
WAS A GOVERNMENT WHEN I SAY THE
GOVERNMENT I MEAN THE
ADMINISTRATION AND IN THIS AND
THE ADMINISTRATION IN THE LRB
THEY REALIZED THEY WERE GOING TO
LOSE THAT BATTLE AND IN
BEHOLDING TO THE U F W THEY
LOCKED THOSE BALLOTS UP FOR FIVE
YEARS. THESE FARM WORKERS WAITED
NINE YEARS TOTAL FOR JUSTICE
AGAINST THE U. F W THEY HAD
THEIR TIRE SLASH THEY HAD THEIR
CARS KEYED THEIR THEIR HOMES
BROKEN INTO. THEY HAD ROCKS
THROWN THROUGH THEIR FRONT
WINDOWS. THESE FARM WORKERS
FOUGHT FOR THEIR RIGHT WHEN I
WENT OUT AND MET WITH THESE FARM
WORKERS, A LOT OF THEM LIKE MY
COLLEAGUE FROM LOS ANGELES SAID
THEY'RE UNDOCUMENTED. THEY'RE
HERE ILLEGALLY, BUT THEY CAN I'M
HERE. THEY WORK IN THE FIELDS
THEY TRANSITION. THEY GOT GREAT
BENEFITS, HARVESTING PEACHES AND
STONE FRUIT FOR GROWLING FARMS.
THEY GOT GREAT BENEFITS, AND
THEN THEY WENT HOME TO MEXICO,
AND THEY SHARED WITH THEIR
FAMILY. THEY CAME BACK AGAIN TO
WORK FOR GROWLING, AND SOME OF
THEM STAYED YEAR ROUND. SOME OF
THEM STAYED YEAR ROUND. BUT THEY
ALWAYS WORKED FOR THAT COMPANY
BECAUSE THE COMPANY TREATED THEM
VERY FAIRLY. THEY TOLD ME WE
LEFT MEXICO BECAUSE OF CORRUPT
GOVERNMENT AND NOW WE COME BACK
. AND THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WE
FACE HERE WE HAVE. WE HAVE MADE
THIS DECISION. WE FOUGHT FOR THE
LAST SEVEN YEARS TO BE ABLE TO
KEEP THIS AWAY FROM OUR
COMMUNITY, SO THEY DIDN'T THERE
ARE FARMWORKERS SO THEY DIDN'T
TAKE MONEY OUT OF OUR CHECKS FOR
BENEFITS. THEY CAN'T PROVIDE US
BECAUSE WE ALREADY GET AND AFTER
FIVE YEARS OF THOSE BALLOTS
BEING LOCKED UP IN A IN A
DECISION BY THE COURT REQUIRED
THE ADMINISTRATION TO OVERSEE
THE COUNTING OF THAT ELECTION. I
BELIEVE THAT THE FARM WORKERS
ONE BY 90% IN THE U. F W LOST BY
90. TO UNIONIZE. THIS IS A
FAILED THING. I REALIZED ITS
ICONIC I REALIZE IT STANDS ON
THE SHOULDERS OF CESAR CHAVEZ. I
REALIZED ALL OF THESE THINGS.
BUT THE FARM WORKERS IN THE
CENTRAL VALLEY, WHICH I
REPRESENT WHICH MY COLLEAGUE
FROM FRESNO REPRESENTS WHICH MY
COLLEAGUE FROM LOS ANGELES DOES
NOT CONNECTED TO THESE PEOPLE.
WE MEET WITH THESE PEOPLE. WE
TALK TO THESE PEOPLE. ON A
CONTINUOUS BASIS BASIS AND THEY
ARE NOT INTERESTED IN THIS BILL
, AND THEY'RE NOT INTERESTED IN
HAVING THE GOVERNMENT OF THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA COERCED THEM
INTO A POSITION WHERE THEY ARE
OBLIGATED TO JOIN A UNION AND
HAVE MONEY TAKEN OUT OF THEIR
PAYCHECK FOR BENEFITS. THEY
ALREADY RECEIVE RESPECTFULLY ON
THE ON THE BEHALF OF THE FARM
WORKERS IN THE CENTRAL VALLEY
ASKED FOR A NO VOTE THANK YOU,
SENATOR GROVE, SENATOR GORGES.
PRESIDENT. COLLEAGUES THIS IS A
POLITICAL PARADOX. WHETHER IT'S
THIS ISSUE OR ITS PREDECESSOR
ISSUES. AS A BODY. WE HAVE PUT
FORWARD BILLS. TO MAKE CERTAIN
THAT WE LOOK AFTER THE
DEMOCRATIC PROCESS. WE HAVE MADE
CERTAIN THAT WE'VE GONE AFTER
SUPPRESSIVE METHODS THAT
DISCOURAGE PEOPLE FROM VOTING.
CALIFORNIA HAS LED THE CHARGE OF
MAKING CERTAIN THAT PEOPLE WHO
HAVE ALL THE PROTECTIONS THAT
THE CONSTITUTION AND SENSIBILITY
WOULD ALLOW. SO I DON'T
UNDERSTAND HOW COLLEAGUES YOU
CAN THAT WE CAN AS A BODY. PUT
FORWARD POLICIES THAT GO AGAINST
SUPPRESSIVE PRACTICES. BUT STILL
ALLOW AND PROMOTE FOR SEEK FOR
CAR CHECK. WHICH IS THE
ANTITHESIS OF THE DEMOCRATIC
PROCESS. COLLEAGUES. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK HOW DO YOU
RECONCILE YOUR POSITIONS ON
THIS? BECAUSE THEY CANNOT BE
RECONCILED IF YOU BELIEVE IN
DEMOCRACY, DEMOCRACY INHERENTLY
HAS A SECRET BALLOT COMPONENT.
IN NOVEMBER AND JUNE. YOU DON'T
HAVE INDIVIDUALS OVERLOOKING
YOUR SHOULDERS, MAKING CERTAIN
YOU VOTED A CERTAIN WAY, BUT
SOMEHOW IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR
WHEN IT COMES TO THIS CARD CHECK
IS ALLOWED. COLLEAGUES I
RESPECTFULLY ASK THAT YOU
RECONCILE THIS INCONSISTENCY BY
VOTING AGAINST THIS MEASURE
TODAY. THANK YOU, SENATOR.
GORGEOUS FURTHER DISCUSSION OR
DEBATE. SEEING AND HEARING NONE.
SENATOR DURAZO, YOU MAY CLOSE
THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. I AM
CONNECTED. TO THAT COMMUNITY ALL
OVER CALIFORNIA. I WORKED IN
THOSE FIELDS. I ORGANIZE
WORKERS. I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT
THEY FEEL WHAT THEY GO THROUGH.
I KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE FOR THEIR
KIDS BECAUSE I WAS A KID GROWING
UP UNDER THOSE CONDITIONS. I
KNOW IT'S LIKE FOR THE PARENTS
TO LOVE THEIR KIDS TO WANT THE
BEST FOR THEIR KIDS TO WORK HARD
FOR THEIR KIDS. ONE OF THE
THINGS THAT MOTIVATE ME THE
MOST. WAS THAT I DIDN'T WANT TO
WORK IN THOSE CONDITIONS. I
DIDN'T WANT TO GO THROUGH THAT
THE REST OF MY LIFE. AND MY
PARENTS AND MY OLDER SIBLINGS
SACRIFICED EVERYTHING THAT I
COULD HAVE. CHANCE. DOING?
BETTER. WE SHOULD NOT LOOK AT
THEIR JOBS AS DOING LESS THAN
THE REST OF US. THEY DO SO MUCH
FOR US. ALL THEY WANT IS THE
FREEDOM. THE FREEDOM TO VOTE THE
FREEDOM NOT TO HAVE THE
INTIMIDATION THE THREAT OF
DEPORTATION. THAT'S ALL JUST THE
FREEDOM JUST LIKE EVERY SINGLE
ONE OF US. WE VOTE BY MAIL. WE
VOTE FOR GOVERNOR. WE VOTE FOR
PRESIDENT. AND THE PRIVACY OF
OUR HOMES. WHY CAN'T THEY? JUST
LIKE WE. COLLEAGUES THIS IS A
VERY, VERY IMPORTANT BILL. TO
OUR STATE. AND FOR WHAT WE
BELIEVE IN THE VALUES THAT WE
BELIEVE IN. I RESPECTFULLY ASK

THANK YOU, MADAM. PRESIDENT
MEMBERS A B 27 73. REQUIRES ARE
PEACE OFFICERS TO STATE THE
REASON FOR A STOP BEFORE
ENGAGING IN QUESTIONING RELATED
TO EITHER A CRIMINAL
INVESTIGATION OR A TRAFFIC
VIOLATION. OR STATEWIDE DATA
DEMONSTRATES THAT BLACK
RESIDENTS HAVE A MUCH HIGHER
LIKELIHOOD OF BEING STOPPED. NO
AND WHEN THEY ARE STOPPED. IT IS
THREE TIMES MORE LIKELY. FOR THE
OFFICER TO PULL A WEAPON. AND OF
COURSE, I THINK ALL OF US ARE
INTERESTED, AS ARE PEACE
OFFICERS ARE ALSO TO MINIMIZE
THE USE OF FORCE IN SITUATIONS
THAT DON'T REQUIRE IT. SO WHAT A
B 27 73 DOES IS REQUIRES OUR

PRESIDENT I RISE TODAY TO
PRESENT A B 1949 REALLY
IMPORTANT BILL THAT WOULD
PROVIDE BEREAVEMENT LEAVE TO, UM. WORKERS BASICALLY, THE BILL
WOULD ALLOW WORKERS TO TAKE
UNPAID JOB PROTECTED BEREAVEMENT
LEAVE FOR UP TO FIVE DAYS UPON
THE DEATH OF AN IMMEDIATE FAMILY
MEMBER WORKERS IN CALIFORNIA
CURRENTLY NOT ENTITLED TO
FUNERAL LEAVE. THIS PUTS LOW
WAGE AND PART TIME WORKERS IN AN
ESPECIALLY DIFFICULT POSITION
WHEN THEY LOSE A FAMILY MEMBER
RIGHT TO UNPAID BEREAVEMENT
LEAVE WILL PROVIDE WORKERS WITH
A BASIC LEVEL OF PROTECTION.
DURING TIMES OF IMMEDIATE
HARDSHIP. THANK YOU AND I

CABALLERO, WILL YOU TAKE A

YOU. WHEN THIS BILL WENT TO
COMMITTEE, A NUMBER OF US PUT
FORWARD A RECOMMENDATION THAT
THEY'RE BEING NOTIFICATION IF I
REMEMBER CORRECTLY TO THE
EMPLOYER UM IS THIS THAT? WAS
THAT EVER DISCUSSED WAS THAT
EVER AGREED UPON, POSSIBLY AS AN
AMENDMENT. DO YOU KNOW? IF YOU
DON'T KNOW YOU KNOW WHAT? I MY,
UM MY BELIEF IS THAT IT IS PART
OF THE BILL. I CAN'T DIRECT YOU
EXACTLY TO WHERE IT IS, BECAUSE
THAT IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO COME
BACK, YOU HAVE TO TELL YOUR
EMPLOYER WHILE YOU'RE GONE. IN
OTHER WORDS, IT'S UNPAID, BUT IT
YOU YOUR JOB IS PROTECTED.
ALRIGHT FORGIVE ME. I HOPE I'M
NOT MIXING UP THE BILLS, I THINK
THERE WAS A REQUEST BY MEMBER BY
NUMBER OF THE BOARD MEMBERS ON
BIPARTISAN BASIS REQUESTING
NOTIFICATION PRIOR TO THE
INDIVIDUAL LEAVING FOR
BEREAVEMENT. DOES THAT RING A
BELL? UH YES. AND MY WELL, IT
DOESN'T RING A BELL WITH ME,
QUITE FRANKLY, BUT BUT, UM,
REQUEST YOU CAN REQUEST
DOCUMENTATION FROM YOUR EMPLOYEE
AND SO THAT THAT WOULD INDICATE
THAT YOU HAVE TO GIVE NOTICE AND
THEN PROVIDE INFORMATION AS TO

BILL 26 32 BY ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S
HOLDEN AND ACT RELATING TO
SEGREGATED CONFINEMENT CENTER
SKINNER. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT MEMBERS. I'M PLEASED
TO PRESENT A B 26 32 FOR
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S HOLDEN. I THINK
MOST OF US WHO HAVE LOOKED INTO
THE IMPACT OF SOLITARY
CONFINEMENT. ON AN INDIVIDUAL.
WE KNOW THAT ANY THAT IT HAS
VERY. VERY SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS.
HUMANS ARE WE ARE. A PACK
ANIMALS. WE ARE SOCIAL BEINGS TO
BE PUT IN SOLITARY CONFINEMENT,
ESPECIALLY FOR LONG PERIODS OF
TIME. VERY MUCH AFFECTS THE
MENTAL HEALTH AND THE PHYSICAL
HEALTH OF INDIVIDUALS. NOW WE
HAVE PUT SOME LIMITS ON IT. BUT
IT'S STILL REMAINS. USED
COMMONLY IN OUR PRISONS AND
JAILS. WHAT THIS BILL WOULD DO.
IS NOT ELIMINATE. OUR JAILS AND
PRISONS CAN STILL USE SOLITARY
CONFINEMENT, AND THERE MAY BE
TIMES WHERE IT'S APPROPRIATE.
BUT IT WOULD LIMIT IT. 2 15
CONSECUTIVE DAYS. AND THEN 45
TOTAL DAYS WITHIN 180 DAY PERIOD
, SO I WANTED TO STATE THAT VERY
EXPLICITLY BECAUSE WITHIN A
PARTICULAR YEAR, A PERSON COULD
STILL BE PUT INTO SOLITARY
CONFINEMENT FOR UP TO 90 DAYS
UNDER THIS LAW. SO IT IS NOT IT
IS NOT ELIMINATING IT. IT IS
JUST PUTTING SOME BOUNDARIES ON
IT. BOUNDARIES THAT MENTAL
HEALTH AND MEDICAL. EXPERTS HAVE
INDICATED WILL LESSEN THE VERY
DEEP AND LONG LASTING MENTAL AND
PHYSICAL HARM. IT ALSO PROHIBITS
THE BILL. THE USE ON ARE VERY
VULNERABLE PEOPLE, AND THAT
MEANS PEOPLE WITH SERIOUS MENTAL
DISABILITIES. NEW YORK AND
COLORADO HAVE ALREADY ENACTED.
UH, BOUNDARIES LIKE THIS. AND
WITH THAT, I ASK FOR YOUR I VOTE
. THANK YOU, SENATOR SKINNER
MEMBERS DISCUSSION OR DEBATE,
SENATOR NIELSEN. MADAM
PRESIDENT, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
THE SENATE THERE ARE TWO PLACES
THAT I HAVE BEEN EVIL JUST
EXUDES. IT'S A BLACK DEATH LIKE
PAUL. OVER THE SURROUNDINGS.
DEATH ROW. AND SECURED HOUSING
UNITS. AT OUR PRISONS. NOW WHO
GETS PUT INTO A SECURED HOUSE,
ENGLAND. THE GREATEST PROBLEMS
WITHIN THE INSTITUTION. ARE
THESE PEOPLE WHO SIMPLY CUST OUT
AN OFFICER. NO. IN MANY CASES,
THEY'RE THE LEADERS OF THE
GANGS. ISOLATED BECAUSE OF THEIR
ACTIVITIES. I USE THAT TERM
GENEROUSLY. AND THAT INCLUDES.
DECIDING AND ORDERING WHO GETS
MURDERED? BY ANOTHER INMATE. IN
AN INSTITUTION. I'VE LOOKED IN
THE EYES OF THOSE INDIVIDUALS.
IN THOSE CELLS. I'VE LEARNED HOW
TO LOOK INTO NOT THE BRAIN.
THAT'S THE EASY PART. BUT LOOK
INTO THE HEART. THOSE ARE NOT
HEARTS OF FEWER. HEARTS. OF GOOD
INTENT. HEARTS. OF
REHABILITATION. IN SOME CASES,
THEY ARE ESSENTIAL. TO PROTECT
THE LIVES OF THE INMATE. FROM
BEING BURDENED BY OTHER INMATES
WITH WHOM THEY'VE MADE AN ENEMY.
OR AS RETALIATION. THEY ARE
IMPORTANT TO THE INTEGRITY. OF
THE INSTITUTION. BY BEING ABLE
TO ISOLATE THE MOST DISRUPTIVE
INDIVIDUALS. THIS TEMPORARY
CONFINEMENT. TOO MANY OF THOSE
INDIVIDUALS IS A JOKE. THEY CAN
HANDLE THAT WITH NO PROBLEM AT
ALL. AND IN FACT, YOU MAY BE
SURPRISED TO KNOW FROM THOSE
VERY CELLS. GANG LEADERS CAN RUN
THEIR GANGS. THERE ARE MANY WAYS
THAT THAT IS ACCOMPLISHED. I'VE
SEEN SOME OF THE INNOVATIVE
ATTEMPTS THAT THEY HAVE MADE
THIS ISN'T ABOUT CRUELTY TO WELL
INTENDED INDIVIDUALS. OR EVEN
WHO MADE AN ERROR IN THEIR
LIVES. AND ARE NOW PAYING THE
PRICE. THEY'RE INDIVIDUALS WHO
CANNOT EVEN BEHAVED BY SOCIETY'S
RULES IN CUSTODY. AND FOR THE
INTEGRITY AND JUST TWO
INSTITUTION. AND FOR THE SAFETY
OF OTHER INMATES. I ARGUE. THIS
IS A PROPER PLACEMENT. OF AN
INDIVIDUAL. AGAIN. DON'T TAKE
SWEET INNOCENCE. THANK YOU EVIL.
NO. THANK YOU, SENATOR NIELSEN,
SENATOR MELINDA'S. THANK YOU,
MADAM PRESIDENT HAVE A QUESTION
ON THE FLOOR MANAGER. IF I MAY,
SENATOR SKINNER, WILL YOU TAKE A
QUESTION? YS. THANK YOU. PLEASE
PROCEED. THANK YOU. SO THE BILL
SAYS NO MORE THAN 15 CONSECUTIVE
DAYS. SO IF AN INMATE SLITS THE
THROAT OF ANOTHER INMATE. DOES
HE GET LOUD OUT OF THIS TYPE OF
CONFINEMENT AFTER 15 DAYS? IS
THAT THE LIMITATION. I WILL
ANSWER THE QUESTION RELATED TO
THE SLITTING THE THROAT OF
ANOTHER INMATE SLITTING OF
THROATS OF ANOTHER INMATE WOULD
CAUSE LOTS OF DIFFERENT
CONSEQUENCES TO THAT INDIVIDUAL
. THIS BILL ONLY DEALS WITH THE
NUMBER OF DAYS SOMEONE IS IN
SOLITARY CONFINEMENT. I
UNDERSTAND THAT, HOWEVER, IT
PUTS A LIMIT ON 15 CONSECUTIVE
DAYS. AS I STATED AND NO MORE
THAN 45 DAYS TOTAL IN 180 DAY
PERIOD. OKAY THANK YOU. SO
MEMBERS, I WOULD URGE A NO VOTE
BASED ON THAT RESPONSE BECAUSE,
WHILE YOU KNOW YES, EVEN INMATES
SLITS THE THROAT OF ANOTHER
INMATE. CERTAINLY THEY'RE GOING
TO BE SOME MORE CHARGES LEVIED
THERE. YOU'RE ALREADY IN PRISON
. OKAY AND SO THAT MEANS THAT
THIS PARTICULAR INMATE IS GOING
TO HAVE TO BE LET OUT. 15 DAYS
AFTERWARDS. YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT
A SITUATION WHERE YOU WERE
TRYING TO ACTUALLY KEEP OTHER
INMATES SAFE FROM THE HARM THAT
OTHERS MAY CAUSE THEM, AND THEY
HAVE ALREADY SHOWN THAT THEY ARE
CAPABLE OF. THAT'S WHY THEY HAVE
BEEN PLACED IN THIS TYPE OF
CONFINEMENT. SO IF YOU HAVE THE
REVOLVING DOOR OF OKAY, YOU GET
A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND THEN YOU
GET TO GO BACK OUT AND DO IT ALL
OVER AGAIN. WHERE IS THE
INCENTIVE? TO NOT GET NOT ENGAGE
IN THAT TYPE OF BEHAVIOR. THERE
ISN'T ANY. THERE ISN'T ANY. SO
NOW YOU'RE PUTTING AT RISK
PEOPLE WHO ARE DOING WHAT
THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO DO WHILE
THEY'RE INCARCERATED, WHO ARE
TRYING TO KEEP THEIR NOSE CLEAN?
DO WHAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO DO.
STAY OUT OF TROUBLE DO THEIR
TIME SO THEY CAN GET OUT AND
LIVE THEIR LIVES. HOWEVER THEIR
LIVES MAY VERY WELL BE CUT SHORT
BECAUSE THIS BILL WOULD ALLOW
THEM TO GO AND YOU KNOW, CAUSE
HARM TO WHOMEVER GETS IN THEIR
PATH THAT THEY HAVE A PARTICULAR
BEEF WITH BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE
TO SPEND 15 DAYS IN CONFINEMENT
AND THEN ALL IS FORGIVEN. I
HEARD YOU KNOW ABOUT THANK YOU,
SENATOR MELINDA'S MEMBERS
FURTHER DISCUSSION OR DEBATE.
SENATOR GROVE. I AM SORRY,
LADIES. THIS IS RIGHT IN
BETWEEN. AND I JUST HAVE A HARD
TIME SEEING BOTH OF YOUR
MICROPHONES THAT WORKS. CENTER
GROVE. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT. I'D LIKE TO ALIGN MY
COLLEAGUES FROM LAKE ELSINORE.
MY COMMENTS TO MY COLLEAGUES
FROM LAKE ELSINORE. THIS IS A
REALLY, REALLY BAD BILL AND A
REALLY BAD BILL. I TOURED KERN
VALLEY PRISON. I'VE TOURED, UM
UH, THE PELICAN BAY. I'VE DENSE
, UM, STUFF WITH THE PRISON
GUARDS AND CCPOA TO FIGURE OUT
WHAT THE WHAT THE PROCESS WOULD
BE FOR CERTAIN THINGS, AND THIS
WAS A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. BUT
WHEN WE DID THOSE TOURS, WE ALSO
TOURED THE SHOE AND A SOLITARY
CONFINEMENT FACILITIES IN WITHIN
THE PRISON. THESE UH THESE
FACILITIES PROTECT NOT ONLY THE
PRISON GUARDS, BUT THE INMATES
HIMSELF. THERE'S A PERMISSION TO
READ MADAME PRESIDENT. THE LAST
INJECTION. THANK YOU. THERE'S A
LOSS ANGELES TIMES ARTICLE AND
THERE ARE SEVERAL, BUT THIS ONE
CAUGHT MY EYE. AH, THIS
CONVICTED KILLER. UH WHO WAS IN
HIS PRISON CELL. LET ME SEE. GET
TO THE BEST PART. I DON'T WANT
TO READ THE PERSON'S NAME, BUT
HE'S THE CONVICTED KILLER. HE'S
A SELF DESCRIBED SATANIST AND AN
INDIVIDUAL WHO WAS SUPPOSED TO
SERVE JUST A FEW YEARS FOR A
FELONY CONVICTION THAT HE GOT
BUT WOULD HAVE GONE OUT IN A
COUPLE OF YEARS. MR ROMERO WAS
PUT IN THIS INDIVIDUAL CELL IN
THE SAME PLACE. IT TOOK THAT
THAT HORRIFIC INDIVIDUAL THAT
SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN SOLITARY
CONFINEMENT OR IN THE SHOE AND
NOT HAD A CELL MATE. IT TOOK HIM
ABOUT 25 MINUTES TO CUT OFF MR
ROMERO'S HEAD WITH A SHIV OR A
MAKESHIFT KNIFE. MR ROMERO'S
FAMILY HAS FILED A LAWSUIT. UM
THIS INDIVIDUAL SHOULD HAVE BEEN
IN THE SHOE OR UNDER SOLITARY
CONFINEMENT, BUT HE WAS RELEASED
INTO NOT UM, GENERAL POPULATION
, BUT IN A PLACE WHERE HE WOULD
BE ABLE TO HAVE A CELL MATE. UM
THESE THINGS HAPPEN IN PRISON
AND WE TALKED ABOUT CRIMINAL
JUSTICE. WE TALKED ABOUT JUSTICE
REFORM. WE TALK ABOUT ALL THOSE
THINGS AND LIKE MY COLLEAGUE
FROM LAKE ELSINORESAID PEOPLE
IN PRISON NEED TO DO THEIR TIME
FOR THE PUNISHMENT OF THE CRIME
THAT THEY COMMITTED AND
PERPETRATED AGAINST AN
INDIVIDUAL IN OUR STATE. BUT
THEY DON'T DESERVE TO GO THERE
AND GET THEIR HEAD CUT OFF BY
PEOPLE THAT ARE THERE FOR LIFE,
AND THAT HAVE NO REASON NOT TO
OBSTRUCT THE RULES IN ANY WAY,
SHAPE OR FORM. THIS IS AN
EXTREME EXAMPLE. BUT IT'S ONE OF
THOUSANDS OF EXTREME EXAMPLES
THAT TAKE PLACE IN THE
CALIFORNIA PENITENTIARY SYSTEM
BECAUSE WE ARE RESTRICTING THE
CDCR S RIGHTS TO BE ABLE TO
THEIR ABILITY TO BE ABLE TO KEEP
THESE WHO WERE IF IQ INDIVIDUALS
, UM OUTSIDE OF THE PRESENCE OF
OTHER INDIVIDUALS, THIS THERE TO
SERVE THEIR TIME. I WISH. UM IF
I COULD I KNOW THIS SOUNDS KIND
OF SILLY, BUT I WISH YOU COULD
ALL GO THROUGH A CCW CLASS. UM A
LOT OF TIMES. YOU GUYS THINK
THAT FIREARMS ARE BAD AND THAT
PEOPLE SHOULDN'T CARRY THEM. BUT
WHEN YOU GO THROUGH A CLASS A
CLASS LIKE THAT IF YOU WERE TO
GOOGLE IF YOU WANTED TO DO THAT,
I'LL SAY HIS NAME IF YOU WERE TO
DO GOOGLE, UM AMY'S HINTON OR
JAIME, I APOLOGIZE. I DON'T
REMEMBER HIS NAME. I DON'T WANT
TO REMEMBER ELEVANCE TO THE
BILL. RELEVANCE TO THE BILL.
IT'S THE INDIVIDUAL WHO CUT
SOMEBODY'S HEAD OFF. UM SO JAIME
SONA. IF YOU GOOGLE HIM, THAT IS
A PERSON THAT YOU CANNOT REASON
WITH. SO IF YOU'RE IN A PRISON
AND YOU'RE IN A COMBINED SPACE
AND AN EIGHT BYTE CELL, AND YOUR
YOUR CELL MATE SHOULD BE IN
SOLITARY CONFINEMENT. BUT
BECAUSE OF POLICIES LIKE THIS,
THEY WOULDN'T BE IN POLICIES
THAT WE'VE PRESSED PREVIOUSLY
THAT DON'T REQUIRE THEM TO STAY
IN A CONFINED SPACE RATE IN A IN
A CONFINED SITUATION ALONE. UM
THEN YOU'RE PUTTING PEOPLE THAT
ARE SERVING THEIR PRISON
SENTENCE IN JEOPARDY AND YOU
KNOW, THEY HAVE RIGHTS, TOO.
THEY DON'T HAVE ALL THE RIGHTS
THAT WE DO BECAUSE THEY'VE
OBSTRUCTED THE LAW AND THEY'RE
IN PRISON AND THEY'RE PAYING FOR
A PUNISHMENT OF THE CRIME, BUT
THEY DON'T DESERVE TO GO THERE
AND DIE OR BE HURT BY ANOTHER
PRISONER. AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR A NO VOTE. THANK YOU,
SENATOR GROVE MEMBERS FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE, SENATOR
DIRAZ Ó. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT. UM I WANT TO JUST ADD
TO THE CONVERSATION HERE, UM,
ABOUT A POPULATION THAT'S
INCLUDED OF MEN AND WOMEN, AND
THAT IS IMMIGRANTS HELD IN
PRIVATE DETENTION FACILITIES. UM
I THINK THE GENESIS OF THIS BILL
WAS, UH, THE DEATH OF A 74 YEAR
OLD KOREAN IMMIGRANT WHO WAS
WRONGFULLY PLACED IN SOLITARY
CONFINEMENT. DESPITE HAVING A
HISTORY OF MENTAL ILLNESS, HE
TOOK HIS OWN LIFE ALONE IN
ISOLATION AT THE MESS OF THE
DETENTION FACILITY IN THE
CENTRAL VALLEY. IMMIGRANTS IN
DETENTION ARE ROUTINELY HARMED.
BY FOR PROFIT DETENTION
FACILITIES IN OUR STATE. MANY OF
THOSE FACILITIES VIOLATED
CALIFORNIA LAW AS WELL AS THE
STANDARDS OF CARE IN THEIR
CONTRACTS WHEN THEY SUBJECT
PEOPLE TO 21, OUR LOCKDOWNS.
JUST A FEW WEEKS AGO, A NUMBER
OF WOMEN CAME FORWARD ALLEGING
SEXUAL ABUSE BY GUARDS AT THE
FOR PROFIT TIME S A DETENTION
FACILITY IN SAN DIEGO. WHEN THEY
INITIALLY REPORTED THIS ABUSE,
THEY WERE THREATENED WITH
SOLITARY CONFINEMENT. THESE ARE
STORIES THAT YOU ALL NEED TO
HEAR WHAT HAPPENS EVERY DAY IN
THESE FACILITIES BECAUSE THESE
PRIVATE COMPANIES BELIEVE THAT
NO ONE CARES ABOUT IMMIGRANTS IN
DETENTION. THIS BILL IS NAMED
AFTER THE GREAT NELSON MANDELA
SENDS A MESSAGE THAT CALIFORNIA
CARES ABOUT EVERYONE WHO HAS
HELD IN A TENT DETENTION
FACILITY IN OUR STATE. ASPIRIN.
I VOTE. THANK YOU, SENATOR
DURAZO MEMBERS FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE, SENATOR
BECKER. THANKS. SO JUST WANT TO
SPEAK FOR A MOMENT HERE THAT I
KNOW PERSONALLY TO PEOPLE WHO
SPENT OVER 11 YEARS IN SOLITARY
CONFINEMENT ONE PUBLIC. AMERICA
HAS BECOME A GOOD FRIEND OF MINE
. IT'S BEEN 11 YEARS IN SOLITARY
CONFINEMENT. NO PHONE
THE WAY. UM AS PART OF THAT WE
HAVE OVER USED THIS TOOL. UM I
BELIEVE THIS IS A RIGHTEOUS BILL
THAT'S GOING TO GET US BACK IN
THE RIGHT DIRECTION. I ASKED FOR
MY VOTE. THANK YOU, SENATOR
BECKER MEMBERS FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE SEEING AND
HEARING NONE. SENATOR SKINNER.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO CLOSE? THANK
YOU VERY MUCH. SO, WHILE WE
HEARD OF A VERY HORRIFIC
INCIDENT IN OUR PRISON OF
SOMEONE OF AN INMATE WHO
MURDERED ANOTHER THE INTERESTING
POINT IS THAT THAT INMATE WE
HAVE NO IDEA WHETHER THAT INMATE
HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN IN SOLITARY
CONFINEMENT OR WHETHER THEY
OPERATORS THE PRISON HAD EVER
CONSIDERED PUTTING THAT INMATE.
SO THE RELEVANCE TO THIS
DISCUSSION WAS A LITTLE BIT, UM,
LOST TO ME, BUT LET ME, UH,
RETURN TO THE MAIN POINT. AND
THAT IS THIS DOES NOT ELIMINATE
THE USE OF SOLITARY CONFINEMENT.
IT STILL CAN BE USED WHAT IT
DOES, AND I DIDN'T INDICATE THIS
IN THE OPENING. IS THAT IT?
FOLLOWS THE STANDARDS THAT THE
UNITED NATIONS HAVE SET FOR THE
MINIMUM. NUMBER OF CONSECUTIVE
DAYS OF SOLITARY CONFINEMENT.
AND BEYOND THAT THE UNITED
NATIONS HAS INDICATED THAT
BEYOND THAT. IT IS TORTURE AND
SHOULD BE OUTLAWED, AND THAT IS
AN INTERNATIONAL STANDARD THAT
MANY COUNTRIES FOLLOW, AND IT'S
REFERRED TO AS THE NELSON
MANDELA RULES. SO AGAIN, THIS
BILL WOULD ONLY LIMIT THE
CONSECUTIVE DAYS. IT WOULD NOT
ELIMINATE EITHER THE PRACTICE OR
EVEN THE IN ANY GIVEN YEAR. AND
WOULD STILL ALLOW FOR UP TO 90
DAYS WITHIN A GIVEN YEAR. AND
WITH THAT I ASKED FOR YOUR I

READ ASSEMBLY BILL 23 69 BY
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S SALAS AND ACT
RELATING TO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE,
SENATOR RUBIO THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN
OF THE SENATE RISE TO PRESENT A
B 26 TO 23 69 ON BEHALF OF
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S RUDY'S ALICE,
WHICH ENCOURAGES ATTORNEYS TO
TAKE ON DOMESTIC VIOLENCE,
SURVIVORS CASES AND REMOVE
UNNECESSARY HURDLES FOR
SURVIVORS. REQUESTING DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE, RESTRAINING ORDERS OR
DVR OS. CURRENTLY IT IS UP TO
THE COURT TO DECIDE TO AWARD
ATTORNEY'S FEES AND COSTS OF AND
COST OF SURVIVORS WHEN THEIR
THEIR CASE, AND IN SOME
INSTANCES, COURTS ACTUALLY
REQUIRE SURVIVORS TO MEET MORE
REQUIREMENTS THAN THEIR ABUSERS
WHEN AWARDING ATTORNEY'S FEES
BECAUSE COURTS ARE
INCONSISTENTLY APPLYING CURRENT
LAW. THIS BILL FIXES THIS
PROCESS BY REQUIRING THE COURTS
AFTER ISSUING A D V. R O TO
ORDER THE ABUSER TO PAY FOR A
SURVIVOR'S ATTORNEY'S FEES AND
COSTS AFTER DETERMINING ABILITY
TO PAY. THIS WILL INCENTIVIZE
MORE ATTORNEYS TO TAKE UP AND
REPRESENT SURVIVORS. IN THESE
CASES, THIS BILL WILL ALSO ALLOW
THE COURT TO ORDER ABUSERS WHO
FOLLOW FRIVOLOUS SUITS. TO PAY
ATTORNEY'S FEES AND COSTS,
STOPPING ABUSES FROM FILING
MULTIPLE RESTRAINING ORDERS
REQUESTS THAT ARE MEANT ONLY TO
INTIMIDATE AND HARASS THEIR
SURVIVORS. SURVIVORS AND TEIR
FAMILIES SHOULD NOT HAVE A FEAR
OF GOING TO COURT AND TO GET
RELIEF FROM THEIR ABUSERS. WE
MUST LEVEL THE PLAYING FIELD TO
ENSURE THAT SURVIVORS ARE SAFE
AND FREE FROM VIOLENCE AND HARM
. THIS BILL STRENGTHENS
CALIFORNIA'S HISTORIC POLICY OF
NOT REQUIRING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
SURVIVORS TO FUND THEIR ABUSERS-, SUPPORTING SURVIVORS, LEGAL
AID AND PUTTING AN END TO ABUSE
. THIS BILL HAS NO OPPOSITION. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AND I VOTE
AND REQUEST IMMEDIATE
TRANSMITTAL TO THE ASSEMBLY.

BILL 1938 BY ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S
FRIEDMAN AND ACT RELATING TO
TRAFFIC SAFETY SENATOR RUBIO.
THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, OTHER
SENATE TODAY I RISE TO PRESENT A
B 1938. THIS BILL ENSURES THAT
THE LEGISLATIVE INTENT OF ÁP 43
BY CODIFYING THE EXISTING
PRACTICE ON SETTING SPEED LIMITS
THAT HAS EXISTED FOR DECADES.
THE CLARIFICATION ON THIS FILM
STILL WOULD ONLY PERMIT POSTED A
SPEED LIMITS TO BE REDUCED BY
FIVE MPH FROM WHAT THEY ARE SET
TODAY. AT TODAY'S LEVEL AS AN
ENGINEERING AND TRAFFIC SURVEY
ALREADY PERMITS A 7.4 MPH
REDUCTION FROM THE 85TH
PERCENTILE UNDER CERTAIN
CONDITIONS. TRAFFIC FATALITIES
ARE ON THE RISE AND H T S A
RECENTLY REPORTED THAT 9560
AMERICANS LOST THEIR LIVES IN
THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2022. A 7%
RISE FROM THE YEAR BEFORE, AND
THE LARGEST FATALITY NUMBER IN
20 YEARS. SPEEDING IS A MAJOR
FACTOR IN TRAFFIC FATALITIES.
LAST YEAR, THE LEGISLATURE
PASSED A B 43 TO GIVE CITIES
MORE FLEXIBILITY TO SET LOWER
SPEED LIMITS, PARTICULARLY IN
AREAS WITH THE HIGH INJURY. AND
FATALITY RATE IN AREAS WITH HIGH
CONCENTRATIONS OF BICYCLISTS AND
PEDESTRIANS. DURING THE
IMPLEMENTATION FACE OF REWRITING
THE MANUAL ON TRAFFIC CONTROL
DEVICES. THERE WAS A
DISAGREEMENT ON WHETHER A B 43
WAS MEANT TO GRANT ADDITIONAL
FLEXIBILITY TO LOWER SPEED
LIMITS OR REPLACE EXISTING
PRACTICE ON SETTING THOSE LIMITS
OF THIS DISAGREEMENT LED TO A
DRAFT THAT ACTUALLY MADE IT
HARDER, NOT EASIER FOR CITIES TO
LOWER SPEED LIMITS AND MAIN,
MANY HAVE ACTUALLY REQUIRED
CITIES. TO RAISE THE SPEED
LIMIT. AS WE ALL KNOW, MOST
CITIES HAVE NOW CHANGED IN
COMPOSITION. THERE'S A LOT MORE
BIKE LANES AND A LOT MORE
PEDESTRIANS ON THE STREETS AS WE
HAVE ENCOURAGED MORE WALKING.
THIS BILL IS SUPPORTED BY THE
LEAGUE OF CITIES, PEDESTRIANS
AND CYCLISTS, SAFETY
ORGANIZATIONS AND HAS RECEIVED
BIPARTISAN SUPPORT. THIS BILL IS
JUST MEANT TO KEEP PEOPLE SAFE
ON THE ROADS, AND WE
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN EYEBALL.

STALKING SENATOR RUBIO. THANK
YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. LADIES AND
GENTLEMEN OF THE SENATE TODAY I
RISE ON BEHALF OF THE 70 MCCARTY
. I RISE TO PRESENT 5 47, WHICH
GIVES SURVIVORS OF DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE AND STALKING THE RIGHT
TO BE NOTIFIED OF THEIR
PERPETRATORS. LOCATION WHEN
RELEASED ON PROBATION. IN
CALIFORNIA. MORE THAN ONE IN
EVERY THREE WOMEN HAS
EXPERIENCED DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
FOR MANY, THE ARREST OF THEIR
ABUSERS IS NOT THE END OF THE
STORY. IT'S JUST THE BEGINNING
DATA INDICATES THAT AS MANY AS
50% OF WOMEN WHO SURVIVED
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE REPORT FURTHER
INSTANCES OF STOCKING OR
VIOLENCE AT THE HANDS OF THEIR
ABUSERS. THE REALITY IS THAT
ABUSERS REMAIN ANGRY. AND WE'LL
DO ANYTHING TO HARM OR
EMBARRASSED OR INTIMIDATE THEIR
VICTIMS. CALIFORNIA'S VICTIM
BUILD A RIGHTS KNOWN AS MARCIE'S
LAW GIVES VICTIMS THE RIGHT TO
BE NOTIFIED BEFORE THEIR
OFFENDER IS RELEASED ON PAROLE.
A B 5 47 IS AN IMPORTANT MEASURE
TO ENSURE THAT SURVIVORS DON'T
HAVE TO LIVE IN FEAR BY KNOWING
WHERE THEIR ABUSERS ARE, WHETHER
ACROSS THE STATE OR JUST DOWN

FOR AN EYEBALL. THANK YOU. THANK

WOULD ESTABLISH POSITION OF
DEPUTY SECRETARY FOR CLIMATE AT
THE LABOR AND WORKFORCE
DEVELOPMENT AGENCY TO COORDINATE
THE CREATION OF WORKFORCE
DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY AS A STATE
TRANSITIONS INTO A SUSTAINABLE
AND EQUITABLE CLEAN ENERGY
ECONOMY. THERE ARE MANY EFFORTS
LOCALLY REGIONALLY STATE. WHY
DID TRANSITION FROM FOSSIL FUELS
TO CLEAN ENERGY FUTURE? AND ONE
OF THE MAJOR CONCERNS AND
HURDLES IS THE ECONOMIC IMPACT
TO WORKERS AND COMMUNITIES. SO
THIS POSITION WILL, WHICH WOULD
BE A GOVERNOR APPOINTED POSITION
WITH CONFIRMATION FROM THE
SENATE WILL ASSIST IN THE
OVERSIGHT OF CALIFORNIA'S
WORKFORCE EFFORTS AS WE
TRANSITION TO SUSTAINABLE AND
EQUITABLE CARBON NEUTRAL
ECONOMY, I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR
MY VOTE. THANK YOU, SENATOR
BECKER MEMBERS DISCUSSION OR
DEBATE, SENATOR GROVE. THANK
YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. I
RESPECTFULLY RISE IN OPPOSITION
TO THIS BILL. YOU KNOW THAT WHEN
WE MAKE DECISIONS REGARDING THE
OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY, IT
DISPROPORTIONATELY AFFECTS MY
COMMUNITY. THE PEOPLE I LOVE AND
THE PEOPLE I SERVE AND, UM THE
BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THEY DON'T
WANT TO STAND IN THE GOVERNMENT
FOOD LINE FOR HANDOUTS. THEY
WANT THE JOBS THAT THEY HAVE NOW
THAT GIVES THEM $100,000 PLUS A
YEAR AND THEY WANT THAT SECURITY
OF THAT JOB BY PRODUCING ENERGY
FOR CALIFORNIANS BY CALIFORNIANS
, INSTEAD OF IMPORTING IT FROM
FOREIGN NATIONS THAT ARE HOSTILE
TO THE ENVIRONMENT, AND THAT ARE
ALSO HOSTILE TO INDIVIDUALS AND
HAVE HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS.
AGAIN YOU'VE HEARD ME SAY THIS
OVER AND OVER AGAIN, THE MORE
RESTRICTIONS THAT WE HAVE ON THE
OIL INDUSTRY HERE IN THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA, THE MORE WELL WE
WILL IMPORT FROM FOREIGN
COUNTRIES LIKE ECUADOR WITH 53%
OF THE STATES, UM, THE
ECUADORIAN PRODUCTION OF OIL 53%
OF THAT OIL IS PURCHASED BY
CALIFORNIA AND THEY BULLDOZED
DOWN THE RAINFOREST. THEY HAVE
OIL THAT GOES INTO THE RIVERS
AND STREAMS. THEY HAVE HORRIBLE
HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS AND PAY
EMPLOYEES ROUGHLY $48 A DAY.
IT'S COMPLETELY JUST RIDICULOUS
THAT CALIFORNIA WOULD PURCHASE
ITS OIL FROM A COUNTRY THAT HAS
SUCH DISMAL, UM, DISMAL, DISMAL
HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS AND
HORRIBLE LABOR PRACTICES. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR A NO VOTE
AGAIN. R CALIFORNIA, UH, R
CALIFORNIA OIL WORKERS THAT ARE
STANDING OUTSIDE IN THE HALLWAY
. THERE WERE DOWNSTAIRS AND WE
WALKED BY TO OPPOSE BILLS LIKE
THIS AND INCLUDING THE SETBACK
BILL. THAT'S COME FORWARD THAT
WOULD COST THEM THEIR JOB. THESE
PEOPLE ARE 55% INDIVIDUALS HAVE
COLOR YOU HAVE, UM YOU HAVE OVER
50% OF THEM ARE SECOND CHANCERS
THAT HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO BE
SUCCESSFUL, AND THIS BILL JUST
PUTS A DAMPER ON THERE AND RAINS
ON THEIR PARADE AND TAKES THEIR
JOB AWAY FROM THEM. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR A NO VOTE.
THANK YOU. FURTHER DISCUSSION OR

SENATOR BECKER, YOU MAY CLOSE.
THANK YOU RESPECT TO, UM, MY

BILL 22 69 BY SOMETHING
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S GRAYSON AND ACT
RELATING TO FINANCIAL REGULATION
, SENATOR LIMÓN. THANK YOU,
MADAM PRESIDENT AND COLLEAGUES.
I AM PLEASED TO PRESENT TO YOU.
ASSEMBLY BILL 22 69, WHICH WILL
HELP CREATE A SAFER, MORE
SUSTAINABLE CRYPTOCURRENCY
MARKET FOR CALIFORNIA CONSUMERS
AND CALIFORNIA BUSINESSES. A B
22 69 PUTS IN PLACE. A
REASONABLE LICENSE STRUCTURE FOR
THOSE COMPANIES THAT FACILITATE
THE PURCHASE EXCHANGE AND SALE
OF DIGITAL FINANCIAL ASSETS SUCH
AS CRYPTOCURRENCY. MANY OF THE
BILL'S PROVISIONS ARE BASED OFF
MODEL LEGISLATION THAT WAS
INFORMED BY A BROAD GROUP OF
STAKEHOLDERS AND LEGAL EXPERTS
FROM ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND A B
22 69 ESTABLISHES SOME MUCH
NEEDED CONSUMER PROTECTIONS.
SUCH AS THE DISCLOSURE AND
CUSTOMER SERVICE REQUIREMENTS.
RECENT EVENTS IN THE
CRYPTOCURRENCY SECTOR HIGHLIGHTS
THE URGENT NEED FOR THIS BILL.
OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS, THERE
HAVE BEEN COUNTLESS NEWS STORIES
DOCUMENTING INSIDER TRADING
FRAUD, PERVASIVE SERVICE OUTAGES
, POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE AND SCAM
PRODUCTS, AND PEOPLE ARE GETTING
HURT. EVERY DAY. PEOPLE ARE
LOSING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN
SOME CASES THEIR LIFE SAVINGS
BECAUSE THEY BELIEVED THE
PROMISES MADE BY CRYPTO
COMPANIES. AS THE WALL STREET
JOURNAL ONCE DESCRIBED IT. THE
CRYPTOCURRENCY MARKET IS OFTEN A
LITTLE MORE THAN A CASINO WITH
WEAK REGULATIONS AND FEW MEANS
TO RECOURSE FOR THE LOSERS. AND
AS A FINAL POINT, I WANT TO
REITERATE THAT A B 22 69 IS THE
FINANCIAL SERVICES MEASURE BY
DESIGN. THIS BILL DOES NOT TOUCH
ON THE UNDERLYING BLOCKCHAIN
TECHNOLOGY USED TO DEVELOP OTHER
TYPES OF PRODUCTS INSTEAD, A B
22 69 FOCUSES ON THE FINANCIAL
SERVICES COMPONENT OF THE
INDUSTRY, WHICH IS IMPORTANT
BECAUSE CRYPTO COMPANIES UNLIKE
BANKS OR SECRETARY OR SECURITY
BROKERS ARE UNDER REGULATED AT
BOTH THE FEDERAL AND STATE
LEVEL. WAS CHAIR OF THE SENATE
BANKING AND FINANCIAL
INSTITUTIONS COMMITTEE HAVE
GROWN INCREASINGLY CONCERNED
WITH WHAT I'VE SEEN IN THE
CRYPTO SECTOR, AND I'M GLAD THAT
THE AUTHOR IS TAKING STEPS TO
ESTABLISH A CLEAR CONSUMER
PROTECTIONS AND INDUSTRY RULES.
I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AND I
VOTE. THANK YOU, SENATOR. LIMÓN
DISCUSSION AND DEBATE. SENAOR
BORG IS MADAM PRESIDENT, I THINK
NORMALLY MY GUT REACTION IS THAT
WHEN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
ATTEMPTS TO STEP IN AND REGULATE
WE SHOULD PROBABLY PUT THE
BRAKES PUMP THEM A LITTLE BIT IN
THIS PARTICULAR AREA. I THINK
THAT THIS IS PROBABLY SOMETHING
THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE. NOW WE
UNDERSTAND WITH CRYPTOCURRENCY.
WE'RE EVOLVING INTO DIGITAL
CURRENCY AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL.
WHERE MOST OF THE JURISDICTION
IS GOING TO BE PLACED IN THIS
AREA. BUT UNTIL THAT HAPPENS, I
THINK THE CITY CALIFORNIA NEEDS
TO STEP IN AND INVOLVE ITSELF.
UM, I THINK PEOPLE LIKE THE
FLOOR MANAGER HAD INDICATED
PEOPLE HAVE INVESTED IN THIS
SOMETIMES WITH DUBIOUS
INDIVIDUALS. ULTIMATELY THIS IS
GOING TO PROBABLY HAVE, UH, A
CERTAIN AMOUNT OF CURTAILMENT BY
THE SEC AND OVERSIGHT BY
TREASURY. BUT UNTIL AMERICA
EVOLVES INTO A DIGITAL CURRENCY
, THESE CRYPTOCURRENCIES ARE
GOING TO STILL BE AVANT GARDE
AND ENTICING. SO WITH THAT, I'M
GOING TO BE SUPPORTING THIS
MEASURE. THANK YOU. SENATOR
BORDJ IS SENATOR BECKER. OH
THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. YOU GUYS
GOT YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED. I

ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S HOLDEN AND ACT
RELATING TO FOOD FACILITIES AND
EMPLOYMENT. SENATOR DURAZO.
THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. I
RISE ON BEHALF OF
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S HOLDEN. AH ON A
B 257 A MUCH NEEDED SOLUTION TO
ALLOW MEN AND WOMEN TO BE THE
VOICE THAT THEY NEED TO CREATE
BETTER STANDARDS IN AN INDUSTRY
THAT HAS GROWN NOTORIOUS FOR ITS
LOW PAY AND RAMPANT VIOLATIONS.
WHILE NOT ALL FAST FOOD
FRANCHISES MISTREAT THEIR
WORKERS AND MANY, I'M SURE TREAT
THEM WELL. A BETTER PATH IS
NEEDED. SO THE STATES HAVE
MILLION FAST FOOD WORKERS CAN
THRIVE IN THEIR WORKPLACES AND
IN OUR COMMUNITIES. THIS BILL
CREATES A 10 MEMBER COUNCIL
COMPOSED OF WORKERS, EMPLOYERS,
GOVERNMENT APPOINTEES THAT WILL
WORK TOGETHER TO RAISE STANDARDS
INDUSTRY WIDE. IT WILL BE
EFFECTIVE BECAUSE OF GIVE
EMPLOYEES AND FRANCHISEES A
VOICE IN SETTING THE RULES, AND
IT CREATES A STRUCTURE IN WHICH
ALL STAKEHOLDERS HAVE A VENUE TO
COLLABORATE ON WORKPLACE
SOLUTIONS. ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S
HOLDEN AND THE BILL SPONSORS
HAVE WORKED DILIGENTLY. WITH
MEMBERS OF THIS BODY, THE
ADMINISTRATION SUPPORTERS AND
OPPONENT OPPONENTS TO ARRIVE AT
A VERSION OF THIS BILL THE LIFT
THE WORKERS AND RAISES THE
INTERESTS OF SMALL AND EMERGING
CHAINS. AS SUCH, THEY HAVE
AGREED TO KEY AMENDMENTS. FOR
EXAMPLE, JOINT LIABILITY HAS
BEEN COMPLETELY REMOVED FROM THE
BILL. AND IN RESPONSE TO SMALL
OPERATORS AND EMERGING BRANDS,
STANDARDS FROM THE FAST FOOD
COUNCIL WILL ONLY APPLY TO
RESTAURANTS WITH 100 OR MORE
LOCATIONS NATIONALLY. IT GIVES
SUBSTANTIAL TIME FOR BOTH HOUSES
TO CONSIDER LEGISLATIVE ACTION
BEFORE ANY RECOMMENDATIONS CAN
GO INTO EFFECT. THE AUTHORS HAVE
AGREED TO EQUAL REPRESENTATION
OF THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO WORK IN
THE INDUSTRY AND INDUSTRY
INTERESTS THEMSELVES. FINALLY A
B 257 HAS A SIX YEAR SUNSET. SO
THE PROGRESS OF THE COUNCIL CAN
BE ASSESSED. I'M SURE OVER THE
LAST SEVERAL WEEKS AND MONTHS,
YOU HAVE NOTICED FAST FOOD
WORKERS IN OUR STATE HAVE BEEN
ORGANIZING TAKING ACTIONS AND
ACTUALLY EXPECT A VOICE IN THEIR
INDUSTRY. THEY HAVE THEY WANT A
SEAT AT THE TABLE, AND IT HAS
BECOME LOUDER AND LOUDER. IT'S
IMPOSSIBLE TO IGNORE. THE
DEMANDS THE NEEDS OF THESE
WORKING MEN AND WOMEN. THEY'VE
EVEN RISKED ARREST AT THE DOORS
OF FAST FOOD CORPORATIONS. I
BELIEVE THIS IS A WELL
COMPROMISED PIECE OF LEGISLATION
AND WORTHY OF YOUR I VOTE. THANK
YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU,
SENATOR DURAZO MEMBERS
DISCUSSION AND DEBATE, SENATOR
HERTZBERG. MY EMPHASIS. MADAM
CHAIR ON HISTORY. IS CONSISTENT
IN THIS INSTITUTION. AND AS I
ADDRESS THE MEASURE BEFORE US
TODAY AND SUPPORT
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S HOLDEN'S BILL I
HOLD IN MY HAND WEST ANNOTATED
CODE, THE LABOR CODE USED TO BE
CALLED THE POLITICAL CODE IN
CALIFORNIA, AND IT WAS ADOPTED
1937, AND IT'S ONE OF 29 CODES
IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA TO
DEAL WITH THE RELATIONSHIP.
BETWEEN EMPLOYERS AND EMPLOYEES.
WE SAW WE LOOK AT THE HISTORY
VERY BRIEFLY IN THIS COUNTRY,
THE NEED TO PROTECT EMPLOYEES
THAT NEED TO BE ABLE TO DEAL
WITH THE BALANCE OF POWER
BETWEEN EMPLOYERS AND EMPLOYEES
TO MAKE SURE THERE'S FAIRNESS
AND EQUITY IN THE PROCESS. AND
SO WHAT WE HAVE BEFORE YOU IS A
BILL THAT TAKES THAT TO THE NEXT
LEVEL, IF YOU WILL. WHAT WE'VE
SEEN IN THE DEBATE AS THIS
MEASURE CAME OUT OF THE OTHER
HOUSE AND AS WE SAW IN NEWSPAPER
ADS AND TELEVISION ADS AND THE
LIKE. THE VARIOUS INTEREST
GROUPS, OF COURSE, ADVOCATING AS
THEY HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO DO AND
TO MAKE THEIR POINTS. THE
QUESTION IS, UH, SENATOR ALSO
SAID HERE TODAY IS WHAT IS
BEFORE US. NOT WHAT HAS BEEN
DISCUSSED. NOT WHAT HAS BEEN
DEBATED NOT WHAT WAS IN A
PREVIOUS VERSION OF THE BILL.
BUT WHAT'S BEFORE US TODAY? IS
IT CONSISTENT WITH THE
UNDERLYING ISSUES ABOUT THE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN EMPLOYERS
AND EMPLOYEES WHERE THERE'S A
DISPARATE POWER THAT EXISTS AND
WE'RE GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO STEP
IN AT TIMES TO MAKE SURE THAT
THAT POWER IS EXERCISED
APPROPRIATELY AND ELEGANTLY.
THAT'S WHAT WE HAVE IS NO LONGER
THE JOINT LIABILITY, AS WAS
EXPRESSED IN THE OPENING
STATEMENT. WHAT WE HAVE IS A
COUNCIL THAT GIVES VOICE WHICH
IS WHAT THE LABOR CODE IS ALL
ABOUT, GIVING VOICE AND THAT
COUNCIL AS I SAID HERE TODAY. IT
INCLUDES A REPRESENTATIVE OF THE
GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF BUSINESS
AND ECONOMICS TO REPRESENTATIVES
FROM FAST FOOD WORKERS TO
REPRESENTATIVES THAT ADVOCATES
FOR FAST FOOD WORKERS TO
REPRESENTATIVES FOR FAST FOODS,
FRANCHISORS AND TWO
REPRESENTATIVES AFFAIRS. FAST
FOOD FRANCHISEES A BALANCED
APPROACH TO GIVE VOICE OF ALL TO
BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE
CHALLENGES THAT ARE BEING FACED.
NO LONGER IS THERE. THERE'S NOW
WAGE CAP THAT'S BEEN INCLUDED.
WITH RESPECT TO THIS MEASURE.
THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS
DISCUSSED, DELETING DESPITE THE
DELETION OF FAIR SCHEDULING AND
PAID TIME OFF, DESPITE DELETING
AS I SUGGESTED OF JOINT
LIABILITY, SO THE QUESTION IS
WHAT WE HAVE BEFORE YOU IS THIS
FAIR? IS THIS CONSISTENT WITH
THE JURISPRUDENTIAL THINKING
THAT WE HAVE IN THE LABOR CODE?
IS THIS SOMETHING THAT REALLY
GIVES APPROPRIATE VOICE WITHOUT
OVERREACH, AND I WOULD STAND
HERE AND THE REASON I'M STANDING
HERE TODAY AND THE REASON I'M IN
SUPPORT OF THIS MEASURE IS
BECAUSE I THINK THAT IT DOES. I
THINK THAT A FAIR BALANCE HAS
BEEN REACHED. I THINK THAT THIS
IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT IN TERMS
OF HOW WE MOVE FORWARD IN
CALIFORNIA AND MEMBERS. I WOULD
RESPECTFULLYASK FOR YOUR I VOTE
. THANK YOU. SANDRA HERZBERG,
SENATOR MIN. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT. I RISE TODAY TO
EXPRESS MY SUPPORT FOR MAYBE 2
57 TO EXPLAIN MY SUPPORT FOR
THIS BILL. IT'S PERHAPS
APPROPRIATE THAT OVER THE PAST
YEAR, THIS BILL HAS GIVEN ME
QUITE A LOT OF INDIGESTION. UM I
REPRESENT SEVEN FAST FOOD
RESTAURANT CHAINS IN MY DISTRICT
AT THE SAME TIME, I'M VERY
SYMPATHETIC TO THE PLIGHT OF
FAST FOOD WORKERS, MANY OF WHOM
HAVE HAVE DIFFICULT WORK
CONDITIONS. UH DON'T MAKE A
LIVING WAGE AND HAVE SERVED US
DURING THE PANDEMIC WITH THE
FOOD THAT WE ALL ENJOY.
BALANCING THESE CONCERNS HAS
BEEN SOMETHING THAT'S TROUBLED
ME MANY NIGHTS AND, UM, I WILL
SAY AS AN ELECTED REPRESENTATIVE
, I FEEL IT'S OUR DUTY TO
PROTECT OUR BUSINESS CENTERS
FROM OVERBURDENED FROM STATE
REGULATIONS, BUT WE ALSO HAVE TO
BALANCE THAT AGAINST THE RIGHTS
OF THE WORKERS THAT SERVE US. UM
I HAD SOME DEEP CONCERNS WITH
THIS BILL. SOME MAJOR ISSUES. I
HAD EXPRESSED THEM TO
LEADERSHIP. TOO MANY OF MY
COLLEAGUES AND I WANT TO THANK
LEADERSHIP. I WANT TO THANK MY
COLLEAGUE FROM HEALDSBURG, IN
PARTICULAR THE STAFF OF SENATE
LEADERSHIP FOR THESE
NEGOTIATIONS, WHICH ADDRESS MY
MAIN CONCERNS THAT I HAD WITH
THIS BILL, AS MAJORITY FORMER
MAJORITY LEADER NOTED, THIS BILL
DOES REMOVE JOINT LIABILITY. IT
DOES CREATE A FAIR COMPOSITION
THE COUNCIL IT HAS A NUMBER OF
MEASURES IN THERE THAT I THINK
WILL LIMIT THE POTENTIAL
DISTORTIONS ON THE LABOR MARKET.
AND IMPORTANTLY, I DIDN'T ASK
FOR THIS, BUT THE SUNSET, I
THINK PROVIDES A SAFETY VALVE IN
CASE THE CONCERNS OF OPPOSITION
ARE REALIZED. IF THIS BILL IS
REALLY PROBLEMATIC IN SIX YEARS,
THIS BILL, WE WILL HAVE TO BE
ASKED TO MAKE AN AFFIRMATIVE
VOTE. I HOPE AND EXPECT TO BE
HERE WHEN ABOUT HAPPENED. SO, UM
, I THINK THIS IS A BILL THAT IS
TRANSFORMATIVE. LET'S SEE HOW IT
WORKS. WITH SOME OF THE CHANGES
THAT HAVE BEEN MADE.MY MAJOR
CONCERNS HAVE BEEN SATISFIED AND
SO I WILL BE VOTING I TODAY.
THANK YOU, SENATOR. MEN, SENATOR
BATES. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT 82 57 IS KNOWN AS THE
FAST ACT AND SHOULD BE REJECTED
. THERE IS NO CREDIBLE DATA THAT
HAS BEEN PRESENTED TO JUSTIFY
WHY THE INDUSTRY SHOULD BE
SINGLED OUT FOR SPECIAL
REGULATORY ATTENTION AND
OVERSIGHT. OUR OWN DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE OPPOSES A B 2 57 BECAUSE
THE BILL DOES NOT ADDRESS
CURRENT ENFORCEMENT OF EXISTING
LAW AND FOR ITS SIGNIFICANT COST
IN THE TENS OF MILLIONS OF
DOLLARS ON AN ANNUAL BASIS,
FINANCE WROTE. MAY I READ? IT IS
NOT CLEAR THAT THIS BILL WILL
ACCOMPLISH SHOULD SCHOOL AS IT
ATTEMPTS TO ADDRESS DELAYED
ENFORCEMENT BY CREATING STRICTER
STANDARDS FOR CERTAIN SECTORS,
WHICH COULD EXACERBATE THE
EXISTING DELAYS. MAYBE 2 57 WILL
SIGNIFICANTLY IMPACT FRANCHISING
, A BUSINESS MODEL THAT PROVIDES
OPPORTUNITIES FOR WOMEN,
VETERANS AND MINORITIES TO OWN
THEIR OWN BUSINESSES AT GREATER
RATES THAN OTHER INDUSTRIES. SO
MAY THINK THIS BILL WILL ONLY
IMPACT THE GIANT ENTITIES SUCH
AS MCDONALD'S OR TACO BELL. BUT
THAT IS NOT THE CASE. 70% OF ALL
FRANCHISE DISEASE ONLY OWN ONE
LIKE A LOCATION. LET ME GIVE YOU
MORE CLEARLY AS THAT WHICH
BUSINESSES MIGHT BE IMPACTED AND

ARE GOING TO BE IMPACTED BY
THIS. I URGE A NO VOTE. THANK
YOU, SENATOR BATES, SENATOR
DOLLY! THANK YOU, MADAM.
PRESIDENT. MEMBERS ALSO RISE IN
OPPOSITION. AS SOMEBODY WHO
ACTUALLY HAS EMPLOYEES. I AM
OFFENDED BY THE FACT THAT THE
LEGISLATURE SEEMSTO CONTINUALLY
GET INVOLVED BETWEEN EMPLOYERS
AND EMPLOYEES. AND THIS IS A
STEPPING STONE TO UNIONIZE ALL
THESE WORKERS AT THE END OF THE
DAY. IT'S GOING TO DRIVE UP THE
COST OF THE PRODUCTS THAT THEY
SERVE. WHAT SEEMS TO BE OF NO
INTEREST TO ANYBODY IN IN THIS
MOST PEOPLE ON THIS FLOOR. AND
ARE THE WORKERS REALLY GOING TO
BE? UH, THEY'RE GONNA GET IT.
ARE THEY GOING TO GET UH UM A
BETTER EXPERIENCE FOR ARE THEY
GONNA? IS IT GONNA REALLY CHANGE
THEIR LIVES? WE DID DO WORK WITH
THIS AUTHOR ON FRANCHISES A FEW
YEARS BACK, AND IT WAS NOTABLY
GREAT WORK. AND THEN THIS BILL.
I BELIEVE THIS HAS GONE TOO FAR.
I THINK IT'S GONNA NOT DO WHAT
IT'S SUPPOSED TO DO, AND IT'S
JUST SETTING UP ANOTHER
BUREAUCRACY. SO A FEW YEARS DOWN
THE ROAD. WE WILL HAVE A
UNIONIZED WORKFORCE, AND THAT'S
REALLY WHAT THE GOAL OF THIS
BILL IS. IS TO CONTINUE TO
UNIONIZE CALIFORNIA BUSINESSES.
WORKING THE WORKERS AGAINST THE
BUSINESS OWNERS. IF YOU OWN A
BUSINESS YOU WOULD BE LOOKING
CLOSE AT THESE BILLS BECAUSE NOT
ALL BUSINESS OWNERS ARE BAD TO
THEIR EMPLOYEES. IN FACT, MOST
OF THEM ARE NOT. THERE ARE A FEW
BAD ACTORS, AND WE ALWAYS FIND
THOSE BAD ACTORS ON THIS FLOOR.
AND THEN WE USE THAT, AS AN
EXAMPLE OF EVERYBODY'S IN THAT
SPACE. THAT IS NOT TRUE. THERE
ARE NO SLAVES THAT WORK FOR
CALIFORNIA BUSINESSES PERIOD.
YOU CAN QUIT ANY DAY YOU WANT
AND YOU CAN GO GET A JOB
SOMEPLACE ELSE. IF YOU DON'T
LIKE YOUR EMPLOYER. BUT WE HEAR
EVERY DAY ON THIS FLOOR ABOUT
HOW BAD THE EMPLOYERS ARE. IT'S
NOT TRUE. AND YOU'RE DRIVING UP
THE COST YOU'RE GIVING. YOU'RE
MAKING IT SO PEOPLE DON'T HAVE
THE ABILITY TO KEEP A GOOD
PAYING JOB AND WORK WITH THEIR
EMPLOYER WHEN THEY NEED UH, TIME
OFF, OR THEY NEED BETTER PAY.
THE MARKET WILL BEAR WITH THE
MARKET WILL BEAR MANY OF THESE
PEOPLE ARE MAKING $22 AN HOUR.
AND THEY'RE IN THESE FAST FOOD
RESTAURANTS. IT'S AN OPPORTUNITY
FOR YOUNG PEOPLE TO GET STARTED.
YOU LOOK AT PLACES LIKE IN AND
OUT. WHERE YOU HAVE TO CLEAN THE
BATHROOMS AND DUMP THE GARBAGE
BEFORE YOU CAN BE A MANAGER AND
THE MANAGERS MAKE WELL OVER
$100,000. IT'S AN OPPORTUNITY TO
MAKE A CAREER. I HEARD, YOU
KNOW, VOTE ON A B 2 57. LET'S
LET LET'S LET BUSINESSES AND
WORKERS WORK TOGETHER AND KEEP
THE GOVERNMENT OUT OF THEIR
LIVES. THANK YOU, SENATOR DALLI,
SENATOR BORGIAS. COLLEAGUES I
HAVE A LOT OF RESPECT FOR THE
AUTHOR. UM. WE MAY DISAGREE
PHILOSOPHICALLY ON A NUMBER OF
ISSUES, BUT WE'VE ACTUALLY FOUND
A NUMBER OF ISSUES WE DO AGREE
UPON. UM UNFORTUNATELY, I
RESPECTFULLY HAVE TO SPEAK
AGAINST THIS ISSUE. AND I'M NOT
GOING TO REPEAT. THE LIST OF
FRANCHISE UM. NAMES OR TALK
ABOUT, UH, ANY OF THE OTHER
POINTS THAT WERE BROUGHT UP, BUT
I THINK THERE ARE A COUPLE OF
WORTH MENTIONING. CALIFORNIA HAS
SOME OF THE STRONGEST LABOR LAWS
IN THE COUNTRY, IF NOT THE
STRONGEST LABOR LAWS IN THE
COUNTRY. AMERICA HAS. SOME OF
THE STRONGEST LABOR PROTECTIONS
IN THE WORLD. AND SO I THINK THE
NARRATIVE THAT WE'RE NOT THERE
OR IT'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH YET. UM,
IS MISLEADING. BUT I WANTED TO
BRING ONE LAST POINT UP TO MY
COLLEAGUES ON WHAT THIS IS DOING
STRATEGICALLY. WE HAD HEARD FROM
SENATOR FROM SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
ABOUT THE NEED TO UNIONIZE. UH,
AND THE CARD CHECK PROCESS. WE
UNDERSTAND THAT EACH INDIVIDUAL
ENTITY OR SEGMENTS WITHIN AN
INDUSTRY HAVE THE ABSOLUTE RIGHT
TO UNIONIZE. IF THAT'S WHAT THEY
WISH TO DO, BY ALL MEANS, THAT'S
THAT'S WHAT THE LAW FORDS AND WE
RESPECT THAT. A BILL LIKE THIS.
IS ACTUALLY LEAPFROGGING THAT A
BILL LIKE THIS IS TAKING
INDUSTRY SWABS. LEAPFROGGING THE
TYPICAL UNIONIZATION PROCESS. IN
APPLYING A FRAMEWORK IN AN
INFRASTRUCTURE SO THAT
UNIONIZATION WILL OCCUR ACROSS
THE BOARD. ACROSS HUNDREDS, IF
NOT THOUSANDS OF BUSINESSES IN
ONE FELL SWOOP. SO REALLY, IT
COMES DOWN TO IF YOU WANT. IF
YOU BELIEVE THAT CALIFORNIA
LABOR LAWS ARE SO INSUFFICIENT I
WOULD RESPECTFULLY ASK YOU TO
REVISIT THE LAWS THAT ARE
INSUFFICIENT, BUT YOU
CATEGORICALLY UPON THOUSANDS AND
HUNDREDS OF BUSINESSES BEING
SWEPT INTO THE DRAGNET DRAGNET
OF A PRECURSOR TO INDUSTRY WIDE
UNIONIZATION. THE CONSEQUENCES
WILL BE SIGNIFICANT. THANK YOU.
SANDRA PORGES, SENATOR GROVE.
THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. I
TOO HAVE DEEP RESPECT FOR THE
AUTHOR. WE WERE TOGETHER IN THE
ASSEMBLY. UM, ALWAYS FAIR. BUT
THIS BILL I HAVE TO COMPLETELY
DISAGREE WITH HIM ON A B 2 57
WERE RAISED FOOD PRICES OF FOR
TENS OF THOUSANDS OF
ESTABLISHMENTS RANGING FROM
YOGURT SHOPS TO SALAD BARS,
BURGER HOUSES AND RESTAURANTS
FREQUENTED BY FAMILIES. WHO ARE
STRUGGLING UNDER THE RECORD HIGH
INFLATION FAMILIES WHO LOOK
FORWARD TO A NIGHT OUT AT A FAST
FOOD RESTAURANT BECAUSE IT'S
STILL SOMETHING THAT'S
AFFORDABLE IN THIS STATE. UH
MAYBE 2 57, OR KILL JOBS AND
OPPORTUNITIES THAT PROVIDE PIPE
PIPELINE TO THE MIDDLE CLASS FOR
THOUSANDS OF CALIFORNIA WORKERS
. MY COLLEAGUES REPRESENT
REFERENCE, UM IN AND OUT AND YOU
GO TO IN AND OUT. THE LINE IS
VERY LONG TO GET THERE, BUT
YOU'RE WAITING IN LINE BECAUSE
IT PROVIDES AN EXCELLENT QUALITY
PRODUCT. AND YOU KNOW THAT THOSE
EMPLOYEES MAKE UPWARDS OF $20 AN
HOUR TO START. IT'S A MECHANISM
IN ORDER TO HAVE COLLEGE
STUDENTS AND THOSE ENTERING THE
WORKFORCE FOR THE FIRST TIME TO
HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE
TO START A NEW JOB AND LEARN HOW
TO SHOW UP ON TIME AND TAKE
DIRECTION AND ALL OF THOSE
THINGS THAT YOU LEARN AT YOUR
FIRST JOB. IT'S ALSO A PLACE
WHERE THERE ARE MANAGEMENT
POSITIONS AND POSITIONS WHERE
YOU HAVE THE ABILITY TO MAKE
THAT A CAREER IF YOU LIKE TO BE
IN AND OUT IN BAKERSFIELD, AND I
HATE I KEEP REFERENCING IN AND
OUT BECAUSE IT IS A GREAT PLACE
TO EAT. BUT THE IN AND OUT IN
BAKERSFIELD, WHERE MY MOM USED
TO FREQUENT EVERY SINGLE DAY
BEFORE SHE PASSED AWAY, UM, THE
MANAGER THIS SOUNDS KIND OF
CRAZY, BUT MY MOM WANTED THE
MANAGER TO BE A PALLBEARER AT
HER FUNERAL, AND WHEN I MET HIM
JOSE AT THE AT THE FUNERAL
BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW WHO HE WAS
BEFOREHAND. HE TOLD ME IT WAS
THE GREATEST JOB YOU EVER HAD
THAT HE STARTED AS SOMEONE WHO
CLEANED THE BATHROOM, THEN CUT
THE FRIES, AND NOW HE MAKES OVER
$100,000 A YEAR TO BE THE
MANAGER AT IN AND OUT. SO UM,
THIS IS SOMETHING THIS BILL IS
SOMETHING THAT WILL
DETRIMENTALLY AFFECT UM, ENTRY
LEVEL POSITIONS AND JOBS IN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA THAT ALLOW
PEOPLE TO HAVE A SUSTAINABLE JOB
THAT LETS THEM PAY FOR THEIR
HOMES, CARS, UM AND TAKING CARE
OF THEIR FAMILIES. I WANT TO
MAKE SURE I ADD TO THE LIST THAT
MY COLLEAGUE FROM ORANGE COUNTY,
UH, PRESENTED BECAUSE I DON'T
WANT ANYBODY TO MISREPRESENT THE
FACT THAT YOU GO BACK TO YOUR
DISTRICTS AND SAY, OH, I DIDN'T

EMPLOYEES THAT WORK HERE IN OUR
DISTRICT, IT IS BUSINESSES AND
IN OUR DISTRICTS, I RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR A NO VOTE. THANK YOU,
SENATOR GROVE, SENATOR KAMLAGER.
THANK YOU, MADAM SPEAKER. I, UM
FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT WE
WOULD AUTHOR AND SUPPORT AND
PASS A BILL THAT WOULD
ESSENTIALLY CLOSED DOWN EVERY
SINGLE FAST FOOD RESTAURANT IN
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA TO MANY
OF US AND OUR FAMILY MEMBERS
DEPEND ON IT. I DO THINK WE
COULD PASS A BILL THAT WOULD
PROTECT WORKERS AND ALSO
RECOGNIZED THE GOOD WORK THAT
MANY FRANCHISEES. D ON BEHALF
OF THEIR CLIENTS AND THEIR
WORKERS. AND I THINK A B 257
ACCOMPLISHES THAT. SOMETHING
THAT HASN'T REALLY BEEN
DISCUSSED. IS VIOLENCE. AND FAST
FOOD. AND IT IS NO EXAGGERATION
TO SAY THAT GIVING WORKERS IN
THIS INDUSTRY, A SEAT AT THE
TABLE AND A VOICE AT SETTING THE
RULES CAN BE A MATTER OF LIFE
AND DEATH. OVER THE PAST THREE
YEARS, THERE HAVE BEEN CLOSE TO
91 100,001 CALLS MADE. UM BY
WORKERS WORKING AT FAST FOOD
RESTAURANTS BECAUSE OF THREATS
OF VIOLENCE. THERE HAVE BEEN
INSTANCES WHERE FOLKS WHO'VE
WORKED IN SOME OF THESE
RESTAURANTS HAVE BEEN ASSAULTED
PHYSICALLY AND SEXUALLY AND HAVE
BEEN KILLED. WHAT WE ARE TALKING
ABOUT WITH THIS BILL. IS GIVING
WORKERS A VOICE AS IT RELATES TO
WORKPLACE CONDITIONS AND SETTING
THE TABLE WHERE BOTH FRANCHISEES
AND WORKERS CAN COLLABORATE AND
SETTING THE RULES. WHAT WE HAVE
SEEN AS A RESULT OF THESE
STATISTICS. AND THESE STORIES IS
THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE REALLY GREAT
FRANCHISEES. BUT EVEN THEY ARE
NOT BEING SUPPORTED BY THE
CORPORATE ENTITIES. AND SO WE'RE
ASKING THESE BUSINESS OWNERS
THAT ARE HIRING OUR PEOPLE IN
OUR COMMUNITIES TO GO IT ALONE.
NOT BEING BACK WHEN IT MATTERS
MOST BY THE CORPORATIONS THAT
ARE MAKING BILLIONS OF DOLLARS
OFF OF THEIR BACKS. I THINK THIS
IS REASONABLE. I BELIEVE IN THE
INTEGRITY OF THE AUTHOR. AND I
HOPE THAT THIS WILL BE THE
BEGINNING OF CONTINUED
CONVERSATIONS IN WAYS THAT WE
CAN MAKE SURE THAT OUR
WORKPLACES ARE SAFE ARE SAFE FOR
WORKERS ARE SAFE FOR CLIENTS AND
CUSTOMERS AND YES, ULTIMATELY
SAFE AND HELPFUL TO FRANCHISEES.
I HAVE A NUMBER OF FAST FOOD
RESTAURANTS IN MY DISTRICT OWNED
BY MANY BLACK AND BROWN AND
ASIAN AND INDIGENOUS FOLKS. I
WANT THEM TO HAVE A BUSINESS AND
I WANT THEM TO EMPLOY FOLKS FROM
THEIR COMMUNITY AND I ALSO WANT
THEM AND THEIR EMPLOYEES TO HAVE
A SEAT AT THE TABLE TO DISCUSS
THE KINDS OF WORKPLACE
CONDITIONS AND RULES SETTING
THAT ISIMPORTANT AND NECESSARY
TO KEEP EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO
COMES INTO THAT FACILITY SAFE.
THAT IS WHY I WILL BE SUPPORTING
A B 2 57. THANK YOU. SANDRA
KAMLAGER, SENATOR CHOKE BOGUE.
THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT AND
MEMBERS I RISE IN RESPECTFUL
OPPOSITION TO, UM A B 2 57. THIS
BILL WILL HARM LOCAL INDEPENDENT
BUSINESSES AND INCREASED FOOD
PRICES FOR CALIFORNIA FAMILIES
AT THE WORST POSSIBLE TIME. IN
MANY WAYS, FRANCHISE RESTAURANTS
ARE NO DIFFERENT THAN OTHER
LOCALLY OWNED RESTAURANTS. AND
MANY, UM THE INDEPENDENT OWNERS
INVESTED HEAVILY AND TOOK RISK
TO BUILD THEIR BUSINESSES. THEY
ARE DEEPLY CONNECTED TO THEIR
COMMUNITIES. THEY CARE ABOUT
THEIR EMPLOYEES AND TAKE
RESPONSIBILITIES AS EMPLOYERS
SERIOUSLY. MANY CHOSE THE
FRANCHISE MODEL NOT ONLY FOR THE
RECOGNITION OF THE NATIONAL
BRAND, BUT ALSO FOR THE
SUPPORTED PROVIDES TWO
INDEPENDENT ENTREPRENEURS,
INCLUDING MANY WOMEN AND
MINORITY OWNERS, WHO FACE
BARRIERS TO BUSINESS OWNERSHIP.
A B 2 57 TARGETS FRANCHISE C
RESTAURANT OWNERS AND COUNTER
SERVICE RESTAURANT FOR SPECIAL
RULES NOT ONLY COMPARED TO ALL
OTHER CALIFORNIA BUSINESSES, BUT
COMPARED TO OTHER LOCAL
RESTAURANTS, TOO. IT
DISCRIMINATES AGAINST THESE
BUSINESSES AND TARGETS THEM FOR
COSTLY NEW MANDATES AND
REGULATIONS. 82 57 WOULD GIVE
UNCHECKED AUTHORITY TO AN
UNELECTED UNELECTED COUNCIL WITH
NO ACCOUNTABILITY, STANDARDS OR
CRITERIA FOR ITS WORK, THE
COUNCIL WOULD NOT BE REQUIRED TO
WORK WITH THE SAME TRANSPARENCY
, LEGISLATURE OR REGULATORY
AGENCIES OR CONSIDER THE IMPACT
OF ITS RULES WHILE AMENDMENTS
SUPPOSEDLY REMOVED JOINT
LIABILITY BETWEEN THE FRANCHISE
C AND THE FRANCHISOR. PROVISION
STILL REMAIN THAT THAT THE LABOR
COMMISSIONER HAS THE ABILITY TO
FILE AN ACTION AGAINST A
FRANCHISOR ALLEGING JOINT
EMPLOYER LIABILITY. MOST OF
THESE BUSINESSES, BUSINESS
OWNERS BECAME A FRANCHISE C TO
OWN AND OPERATE THEIR OWN
BUSINESS, NOT BE A CORPORATE
MIDDLE MANAGER IF FRANCHISES ARE
FOUND TO BE JOINT EMPLOYERS WITH
THE FRANCHISORS, IT WILL TAKE
EMPLOYMENT DECISIONS OUT OF
LOCAL HANDS, AND WE'LL PUT THEM
INTO THE HANDS OF OTHER STATE.
CORPORATIONS THESE RULES WILL
ALSO FURTHER INCREASED COST TO
COMPLY WITH COUNCILS EVER
CHANGING RULES AND NEW
COMPLIANCE MANDATES FROM THE
FRANCHISORS UNDER THE JOINT
EMPLOYERS STANDARD COST THERE
WILL BE PASSED ON TO CUSTOMERS.
WHICH WILL BE THE EMPLOYEES
THEMSELVES AS WELL. HERE IS SOME

INDEPENDENT BUSINESS OWNERS WHO
WOULD BE UNIVERSALLY TREATED AS
BAD EMPLOYERS AND PENALIZED
SIMPLY FOR BEING FRANCHISEES. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR A NO VOTE.
THANK YOU, SENATOR KOBACH,
SENATOR JONES. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS AS HAS
BEEN SHARED. UH THERE'S SEVERAL
REASONS TO VOTE AGAINST THIS
BILL. AND, UH AND I AGREE WITH
MY, UH, THE MY COLLEAGUES AND
HOLDING THE AUTHOR AND THE FLOOR
MANAGER IN HIGH REGARD AND
HIGHLY RESPECTED AND HAVE WORKED
ON SOME POSITIVE THINGS TOGETHER
ON THIS PARTICULAR BILL A B 2
57. THIS IS A NOT SO HIDDEN TAX
ON CALIFORNIA FAMILIES ON SOME
OF THE LEAST EXPENSIVE, MOST
CONVENIENT FOOD THAT THEY CAN
RECEIVE. AH AND PURCHASE AND
SUPPORT AND IN THE MIDST OF A
RECESSION NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO
BE RIGHT. RAISING PRICES ON
CALIFORNIA FAMILIES AND THEIR
FOOD PURCHASES. AND IN ADDITION
TO THOSE COMMENTS, YOU KNOW IT'S
BEEN MENTIONED ABOUT THIS
COUNCIL THAT'S GOING TO BE SET
UP. AND THERE'S SEVERAL.
CHALLENGES WITH THE COUNCIL THAT
WE'RE CONSIDERING SETTING UP
UNDER THIS BILL. AND I THINK IT
WOULD BE HARD FOR ANYBODY TO
CONVINCE US ON THIS FLOOR OR
CONVINCED CALIFORNIANS THAT THAT
COUNCIL IS ACTUALLY GOING TO BE
FAIR AND IMPARTIAL TO EMPLOYERS.
WE KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE OF IDEAS
LIKE THIS THAT HAVE PASSED OFF
THIS FLOOR THAT THE COUNCIL IS
GOING TO LEAN TOWARDS
FAVORABILITY, NOT JUST OF THE
EMPLOYEES BUT OF THE CONCEPT OF
UNIONIZING THOSE EMPLOYEES TO
THE DETRIMENT OF THEIR OWN
EMPLOYMENT AND TO THE DETRIMENT
OF THE COMPANIES THAT THEY WORK
FOR. DO WE REALLY BELIEVE THAT
IT'S APPROPRIATE FOR THIS
LEGISLATURE TO ABDICATE OUR
RESPONSIBILITY AND OUR AUTHORITY
TO THIS COUNCIL? I THINK AND I
WOULD HOPE AND MOST OF YOU AGREE
THAT NO, IT'S NOT APPROPRIATE
FOR US TO ABDICATE OUR AUTHORITY
TO THIS TYPE OF COUNCIL. AND SO
I HOPE FOR THOSE FOR THAT THERE
WOULD BE SOME REASON TO VOTE
AGAINST THIS BILL. IN ADDITION
TO THAT, UM. I'M PERSONALLY
OFFENDED BY THE BILL MYSELF AND
THE CONCEPT BEHIND IT. I STARTED
MY CAREER AT A FAST FOOD
FRANCHISE EMPLOYMENT AT DOMINO'S
PIZZA. I STARTED AS A DRIVER. I
WORKED MY WAY UP TO BECOME A
COOK. NOT SO MANY MONTHS AFTER I
STARTED MY NOW WIFE STARTED
THERE. SO YOU KNOW THE FAST FOOD
INDUSTRY HAS CREATED A BIT OF A
LEGACY IN MY FAMILY THAT WE
APPRECIATE. MY UH KIDS HAVE
WORKED IN THE FAST FOOD INDUSTRY
AS WELL, NOT THE SAME ONE. BUT
UM YOU KNOW MANY OF THE FRIENDS
THAT I WORKED WITH 35 YEARS AGO.
AS I WAS COMING OUT OF HIGH
SCHOOL AND GOING INTO COLLEGE
AND, UH, BEGINNING MY CAREER IN
BUSINESS AND GETTING MY DEGREE
FROM SAN DIEGO STATE AND
BUSINESS MANAGEMENT. I
IMMEDIATELY UPON GRADUATION WENT
INTO MANAGEMENT HAD DOMINO'S
PIZZA WITH THE EVENTUAL GOAL OF
MAYBE EVEN BECOMING A
FRANCHISEE. FOR VARIOUS OTHER
REASONS. MY WIFE AND I CHOSE NOT
TO PURSUE THAT OPPORTUNITY. BUT
FOR SEVERAL OF MY FRIENDS THAT
STARTED AS DRIVERS FOR DOMINO'S
PIZZA. IN 1988. HAVE BECOME
FRANCHISEES HAVE BECOME AREAS
SUPERVISORS HAVE BECOME
EXECUTIVES WITHIN DOMINO'S
THEMSELVES AND MEMBERS. IT
DOESN'T TAKE MUCH TO LOOK AROUND
INTO THIS INDUSTRY AND RECOGNIZE
THAT IT'S ONE OF THE TOP
INDUSTRIES. FOR YOUNG PEOPLE WHO
DON'T WANT TO GO TO COLLEGE. FOR
WHATEVER REASON. MAYBE THEY
DON'T WANT TO GO INTO DEBT FOR
COLLEGE AND THEY CHOOSE THIS
OPPORTUNITY. FRANCHISEES AND
GENERAL MANAGERS AND THESE
INDUSTRIES TYPICALLY COME FROM
THE FRONT LINE WORKERS THAT
BEGIN AT THESE JOBS IN HIGH
SCHOOL AND COLLEGE OR EVEN AFTER
COLLEGE AND, AS HAS BEEN SHARED
VERY LUCRATIVE AND POSITIVE AND
POWERFUL. UH, JOB OPPORTUNITIES
THAT MAKE REALLY GOOD MONEY,
EVEN IN CALIFORNIA. SO FOR ALL
THOSE REASONS, I WOULD ASK FOR A
NO VOTE ON A B 2 57. THANK YOU.
SANDRA JONES, SENATOR NIELSEN.
MADAM PRESIDENT, LADIES AND
GENTLEMEN OF THE SENATE. NOT
ONLY DO I RESPECT AND ENJOY
SERVING WITH THE AUTHOR I
ENJOYED SERVING WITH AND RESPECT
HIS FATHER. WHOM I GOT TO SERVE
WITH THIS FINE INSTITUTION. THE
CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE. AS TO
THIS BILL. LET'S PUT A FACE ON.
ONE ENTITY THAT'S NOT BEEN MUCH
SPOKEN OF HERE YET TODAY. THE
FRANCHISEE. ARE THESE THE PONDS
OF THE MAJOR CORPORATIONS, THE
BILLIONAIRES THAT RIP US OFF?
NO. THURMOND AND WOMEN. SOME OF
WHO HAVE BEEN CITED HERE TODAY.
WHO STARTED CAREER AND UP.
BECOMING A FRANCHISEE. ONE OF MY
VERY BEST FRIENDS, MR CCN.
FOUNDER OF THE ASIAN PACIFIC
ISLANDER AMERICAN PUBLIC AFFAIRS
ASSOCIATION. CAME HERE AS AN
ENGINEER. AND FOUND AN
OPPORTUNITY. IN THIS LAND OF
OPPORTUNITY. AMERICA. AND HE
PROSPERED. AND MR YEN HAS ALWAYS
GIVEN BACK AS THE FOUNDER OF A
PAPA. THAT IS OFTEN BEEN
ATTACKED. I DON'T UNDERSTAND
WHY, BUT SOME HAVE FELT CAUSED
TO DO THAT. HE FOUNDED THIS
GREAT ORGANIZATION BIG COMING
ONE OF THE TOP. FRANCHISEES.
MCDONALD'S. IN THE UNITED STATES
SUCCESSFUL I KNOW HIM WELL. I
FREQUENT. HIS STORES. AND I NOW
KNOW HOW HE TENDS TO THEM. AND
HE TAKES CARE OF HIS EMPLOYEES.
NOW, IS THERE A NEED CRYING OUT?
FOR THIS UNIONIZATION. BE
ADVISED. THIS IS ONLY ABOUT
UNIONIZATION. IT'S NOT FAIR
OPPORTUNITIES FOR ANYONE TO JOIN
A UNION. OR SUPPORT A UNION. BY
ANY KIND OF A BALLOT. IT'S A AS
USUAL. A DECK. STACKING. THIS
LITTLE COUNCIL. THAT'S TO PUT
PRESSURE TO SECURE THE CONTRACT.
BEING SIGNED. THAT THE WAY WE
WANT TO DO BUSINESS. AND YOU
YOURSELVES AND YOUR FAMILY. DO
YOU WANT TO BE SPENDING $20 FOR
A HAMBURGER $30 FOR A HAMBURGER?
WELL, THAT'S WHERE YOU'RE GONNA
BE HEADED. BECAUSE COSTS ARE NOT
GOING TO DO ANYTHING BUT GO UP.
WITH THIS IDEA, IF YOU WILL,
LET'S CALL IT AN IDEA. AN IDEA.
WHOSE TIME NOT EVER COME. AND
SHALL NOT COME NOW. I URGE A NO
VOTE. THANK YOU, SANDRA NIELSEN,
SENATOR MELINDA SAYS. THANK YOU,
MADAM PRESIDENT. CEO MAGAZINE IS
RANKED CALIFORNIA AS THE WORST
STATE IN THE UNION TO DO
BUSINESS FOR AT LEAST A DECADE
NOW, POSSIBLY LONGER. WE HAVE
BEEN DUBBED A JUDICIAL HELLHOLE.
WHERE ONE OF THE WORST STATES TO
DO BUSINESS AND THIS BILL IS A
GOOD EXAMPLE. AS TO WHY IF YOU
WANT TO SEE JOBS, THESE TYPES OF
JOBS THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
FAST FOOD WORKER JOBS IF YOU
WANT TO SEE THEM DISAPPEAR.
THEN, BY ALL MEANS PASSED THIS
BILL BECAUSE THAT IS EVENTUALLY
WHAT WILL HAPPEN. THE MARKET
ADAPT. FRANCHISEES WILL ADAPT.
AND THEY WILL AUTOMATE. THERE'S
A VIDEO I POSTED ON MY TWITTER
TIMELINE. THAT GIVES A VERY GOOD
EXAMPLE OF IT. AND I KNOW YOU'LL
LOOK AT MY TWITTER TIMELINE. SO
DON'T ACT LIKE YOU DON'T SO BUT
TAKE ANOTHER LOOK. IT SHOWS YOU
ON THERE. WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN
? YOU WILL REPLACE THOSE WORKERS
AND THEY WILL BE REPLACED BY
SOMEONE WHO ISN'T EVEN IN THIS
STATE. AND THEIR JOBS ARE GONE.
THEY'RE JUST AND THEY'RE NOT
GOING TO COME BACK. SO I. I MEAN
, THERE'S SO MUCH HAS BEEN SAID
ABOUT THIS BILL. I COULDN'T
POSSIBLY EXPANDING. AND I JUST
WANT YOU TO THINK ABOUT THE FACT
THAT YOU ARE ESSENTIALLY
CREATING THE FAST FOOD WORKER
JOB EXPORTATION ACT. IF YOU PASS
THIS BILL, I URGE YOU KNOW ABOUT
THANK YOU. SENATOR MELINDA'S
REMEMBERS SEEING NO SENATOR
DOLLY Y'ALL WANT TO TAKE YOU,
MAN PRESIDENT. JUST ONE LAST
POINT. UH, THIS IS THE FIRST
STEP. IN 500,000 EMPLOYEES BEING
UNIONIZED AT $300 A YEAR WHICH
IS $15 MILLION THAT WILL BE USED
TO WORK AGAINST CALIFORNIA
BUSINESSES. I URGE A NO VOTE.
THANK YOU, SANDRA DOLLY MEMBERS
FURTHER DISCUSSION OR DEBATE.
SEEING NONE. SENATOR DURAZO, YOU
MAY CLOSE THANK YOU. YOU KNOW
SOME OF MY BEST EXPERIENCES IN
MY CAREER AS A LABOR. LEADER
WHERE WHEN I DID THINGS WITH
EMPLOYERS. WE DID. WE WERE VERY
SUCCESSFUL WHEN WE WERE WHEN WE
WORKED TOGETHER. WERE SUCCESSFUL
IN CHANGING LOS ANGELES TO
BECOME A FAR MORE SUCCESSFUL
BUSINESS. DESTINY DESTINATION.
AND I HAVE WORKED REALLY HARD.
TO LOOK FOR THOSE OPPORTUNITIES
, AND IT SEEMS TO ME THIS IS ONE
OF THOSE EXAMPLES. I WAS VERY
IMPRESSED THAT IT THE WAY THAT
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S HOLDING THE
AUTHOR. HAS DRIVEN THIS FORWARD.
HE'S DONE IT NOT BY SAYING NO.
THAT DOESN'T SERVE THE WORKERS
NEEDS, HE SAID. BY LET'S SIT
DOWN AND TALK IT THROUGH.
SOMETHING IS REALLY IMPORTANT TO
YOU. REALLY IS GOING TO MAKE A
DIFFERENCE, BUT YOU GOTTA SHOW
ME IT'S GOING TO MAKE A
DIFFERENCE. THEN I'M WILLING TO
LISTEN AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT
IT. AND HE'S PROPOSING CREATING
SOMETHING THAT'S NOT ANYWHERE.
BUT IT'S AN OPPORTUNITY TO
CREATE ITS INNOVATIVE IS
BRINGING UM, INDUSTRY AND
WORKERS TOGETHER AT THE TABLE.
UM THIS COUNCIL IS, YOU KNOW,
EQUAL NUMBER OF INDUSTRY
INTEREST, AS WELL AS THE MEN AND
WOMEN WHO WORK IN THE INDUSTRY.
A SUNSET UM. UH LIMITS ON HOW
WHAT CAN BE IMPLEMENTED? YOU
CAN'T JUST BE, UH ONE OWNER, ONE
SHOP FRANCHISEE. THAT THE NUMBER
OF STORIES HAVE TO BE OVER 100.
I MEAN, THERE'S SO MANY THINGS
IN THIS THAT 1000.2 OF VERY,
VERY WELL BALANCED. UM UM, UM,
METHOD OF ADDRESSING BOTH THE
EMPLOYERS AS WELL AS THE
FRANCHISEES AS WELL AS THE
WORKERS. I AM VERY, VERY PROUD.
TO SUPPORT THIS BECAUSE OF THAT
CREATIVITY BECAUSE OF THAT
INNOVATION BECAUSE IT REALLY IS
POINTING TOWARDS HOW DO WE MAKE
THIS INDUSTRY SUCCESSFUL FOR
EVERYBODY? AND NOT JUST FOR SOME
PEOPLE? SO WITH THAT, UM I
PROUDLY ASK FOR YOUR I VOTE.

ASSEMBLY BILL 2011 BY
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S WICKS AND ACT
RELATING TO HOUSING. SENATOR
CABALLERO. THANK YOU, MADAM.
PRESIDENT I RISE TODAY TO
PRESENT A B 2011 ON BEHALF OF
ASSEMBLYWOMAN WICKS HALF OF THIS
YEAR'S HISTORIC PRODUCTION
PACKAGE, WHICH INCLUDES MY SB
SIX, WHICH HAS COME BACK FROM
THE ASSEMBLY FOR CONCURRENCE. A
B 2011 WOULD MAKE HOUSING A USE
BY RIGHT ALONG COMMERCIAL
CORRIDORS BY OPENING UP NEW LAND
TO HOUSING. A B 2011 WILL HELP
SOLVE THE LONG STANDING PROBLEM
OF INSUFFICIENT LAND FOR
APARTMENT AND CONDO BUILDINGS
AND DO SO IN A WAY THAT STEERS
CLEAR OF EXISTING EXISTING
SINGLE FAMILY NEIGHBORHOODS. BY
MAKING HOUSING BY RIGHT IT WILL
REMOVE THE RED TAPE AND
BUREAUCRACY THAT DRIVES UP THE
COST OF HOUSING FOR EVERYONE.
THE BILL REQUIRES RENTAL HOUSING
TO INCLUDE 15% AFFORDABILITY FOR
LOW INCOME HOUSING AND 15% FOR
LOW INCOME. HOW HOMES FOR SALE
AND 30 MODERATE INCOME FOR SALE
BY PLACING HOUSING IN INFILL
LOCATION NEAR JOBS ALONG TRANSIT
FRIENDLY ROUTE. THE BILL WILL
HELP CUT DOWN ON COMMUTES AND
EMISSIONS OF GREENHOUSE GASSES
AND BY INCLUDING ROBUST LABOR
STANDARDS, INCLUDING A
REQUIREMENT TO PAY WORKERS A
PREVAILING WAGE. A B 2011 WILL
HELP USHER IN A NEW GENERATION
OF WORKERS THAT THAT WE NEED TO
BUILD ALL OF THIS NEW HOUSING. A
RECENT STUDY BY THE URBAN
FOOTPRINT SHOWED THAT A B 2011
WILL MAKE IT FEASIBLE TO BUILD
TWO MILLION UNITS OF HOUSING,
INCLUDING HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS
OF UNITS OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
A B 2011 IS SPONSORED BY THE
CALIFORNIA COUNCIL OF CARPENTERS
AND THE CALIFORNIA HOUSING
CONSORTIUM AND IS SUPPORTED BY A
WIDE RANGE OF BUSINESS GROUPS.
AFFORDABLE HOUSING DEVELOPERS,
ENVIRONMENTAL ENVIRONMENTAL
GROUPS, LABOR ORGANIZATION AND
MANY OTHERS. ALSO THANKS TO THE
WORK OF SENATE LEADERSHIP. THE
BILL IS NO LONGER OPPOSED BY THE
CALIFORNIA LABOR FEDERATION OR
THE STATE BUILDING TRADES. A B
2011 SB SIX TOGETHER ARE THE
KINDS OF BALD BILLS THIS STATE
NEEDS TO ADDRESS OUR OUR HOUSING
CRISIS, HELP HOUSE THE HOMELESS
AND MAKE HOUSING MORE AFFORDABLE
FOR EVERYONE. THANK YOU. AND I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR I VOTE
. THANK YOU, SENATOR CABALLERO
MEMBERS AND HE DISCUSSION OR
DEBATE. SEEING AND HEARING
SENATOR WIENER. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT COLLEAGUES. I RISE IN
STRONG SUPPORT OF A B 2011 AND I
WANT TO THANK THE CHAIR OF THE
ASSEMBLY HOUSING COMMITTEE FOR
HER EXEMPLARY LEADERSHIP AND
TAKING A BILL THAT WHEN SHE
INTRODUCED I THINK A LOT OF
PEOPLE MAY NOT HAVE GIVEN IT
MUCH OF A CHANCE, AND SHE WORKS
SO HARD AND THE COALITION BEHIND
THE BILL WORKED SO HARD AND THEY
WERE ULTIMATELY ABLE TO MAKE THE
CASE BECAUSE THIS IS A VERY GOOD
BILL. THIS BILL WILL LEAD TO A
LOT OF NEW HOUSING. IT PROVIDES
STRONG WAGE AND HEALTH CARE AND
WAGE THEFT PROTECTION FOR
CONSTRUCTION WORKERS. AND THIS
IS A BILL THAT WHEN WE PASS, IT
WILL MAKE CLEAR THAT THE
LEGISLATURE AND HOPEFULLY THE
GOVERNOR MEAN IT WHEN WE SAY
THAT WE'RE GOING TO BUILD
MILLIONS OF NEW HOMES. THERE'S A
LOT OF PUSHBACK TO MORE DENSITY
AND RESIDENTIAL, SINGLE FAMILY
AREAS. THAT'S A SEPARATE
CONVERSATION. BUT FOR THE PEOPLE
WHO ARE CONCERNED ABOUT
RESIDENTIAL DENSITY THEN IF
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO PUT IT IN
THE COMMERCIAL AREAS, AND YOU'RE
NOT GOING TO PUT IT IN SPRAWL
AREAS WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO PUT
IT? AND PEOPLE ARE JUST GOING TO
CONTINUE TO LIVE IN THEIR CARS
AND LIVE IN OVERCROWDED
CONDITIONS. THIS IS A BILL WHOSE
TIME HAS COME AND I RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR AN I VOTE. THANK YOU,
SENATOR WIENER, SENATOR JONES.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT. I ALSO RISE IN FAVOR
OF 2011 AND JUST WANT TO
RECOGNIZE THE AUTHOR AND THE
FLOOR MANAGER AND ALL THE
ADVOCATES THAT WORKED VERY HARD
TO GET THIS BILL TO WHERE IT IS
RIGHT NOW. I KNOW IT'S BEEN A
LONG JOURNEY FOR EVERYBODY AND
JUST WANT TO SAY THAT I'M
SUPPORTING THE BILL AS WELL.

KAMLAGER. MADAM SECRETARY,
PLEASE READ ASSEMBLY BILL 16 63
BY ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S MAIENSCHEIN
AND ACT RELATING TO PROTECTIVE
PROCEEDINGS CENTER KAMLAGER
THANK YOU, MADAM. PRESIDENT AND
MEMBERS. I AM HAPPY TO PRESENT A
B 16 63, THE PROBATE, CONSTANT
CONSERVATORSHIP REFORM AND
SUPPORTED DECISION MAKING ACT.
THIS BILL HAS TWO MAJOR
COMPONENTS. FIRST IT JOINS 18
OTHER STATES IN CODIFYING THE
PROCESS OF SUPPORT DECISION
MAKING. SUPPORT SUPPORTED
DECISION MAKING ALLOWS ADULTS
WITH DISABILITIES TO IDENTIFY
TRUSTED SUPPORTERS TO HELP THEM
UNDERSTAND, MAKE COMMUNICATE AND
ACT ON THEIR OWN CHOICES. THIS
PROCESS PROVIDES SUPPORT WHILE
PROTECTING AN INDIVIDUAL'S
RIGHTS AND AUTONOMY OVER THEIR
OWN LIVES. IN ADDITION TO
RECOGNIZING SUPPORTED DECISION
MAKING A B 16 63 ALSO MAKES
VITAL AND LONG OVERDUE REFORMS.
TO THE PROBATE CONSERVATORSHIP
SYSTEM. CONSERVATORSHIPS HAVE
LOW BARRIER TO ENTRY AND ARE
INCREDIBLY HARD TO UNWIND. AND
IF THE COURT IS GOING TO MAKE A
DECISION TO STRIP A PERSON OF
THEIR CIVIL LIBERTIES, IT IS
IMPERATIVE THAT IT ONLY BE DONE
AS A LAST RESORT. THIS BILL IS A
HUMAN RIGHTS BILL FOR PEOPLE
WITH DISABILITIES BECAUSE IT
PUTS SUPPORTED DECISION MAKING
INTO STATE LAW FOR THE FIRST
TIME. THIS WILL HAVE A
PARTICULAR BENEFIT FOR PEOPLE OF
COLOR. BLACK AND BROWN PARENTS
ARE MUCH LESS LIKELY TO CONSERVE
THEIR ADULT DISABLED CHILDREN,
BECAUSE, FRANKLY, THEY JUST
DON'T TRUST THE COURTS. HAVING
SUPPORTED DECISION MAKING, AND
LAW GIVES THESE FAMILIES
SOMETHING THEY CAN POINT TO. IT
GIVES THEM THE RIGHT TO CONTINUE
TO SUPPORT THEIR ADULT CHILD
WITHOUT INVOLVING THE COURTS.
THIS BILL WILL MAKE
CONSERVATORSHIPS EASIER TO END
BY ENSURING CONSERVATIVE EASE,
ARE REGULARLY INFORMED OF THEIR
RIGHTS, WHICH INCLUDE THE RIGHT
TO A HEARING. IF THE
CONSERVATIVE REQUESTS TO
TERMINATE THE CONSERVATORSHIP
THIS BILL HAS RECEIVED NO NO
VOTES, AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR YOUR VOTE. THANK YOU,

SENATOR NEWMAN. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT. I RISE TODAY ON
BEHALF OF ASSEMBLY MARRIAGE
WICKS IN CUNNINGHAM TO PRESENT A
B 22 73, FOR WHICH I AM ALSO A
PROUD CO AUTHOR, WHILE EXISTING
FEDERAL AND CALIFORNIA LAWS
OFFER NUMEROUS PROTECTIONS THAT
SAFEGUARD CHILDREN'S PRIVACY AND
SAFETY. THERE IS CURRENTLY NO
COHERENT, COMPREHENSIVE LAW THAT
PROTECTS ALL CHILDREN UNDER THE
AGE OF 18 FROM POTENTIAL HARM
ONLINE. AS A RESULT, MANY OF THE
ONLINE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
THAT CALIFORNIA'S CHILDREN USED
DAILY HAVE BEEN SHAPED BY ADULT
DESIGN PRINCIPLES THAT IGNORE
AND SOME WOULD ARGUE, DO SO
DELIBERATELY. THE UNIQUE NEEDS
ABILITIES OR SENSIBILITIES OF
CHILDREN. A B 22 73, WHICH IS
MODELED AFTER EXISTING LAW IN
THE UNITED KINGDOM WILL
ESTABLISH THE CALIFORNIA AGE
APPROPRIATE DESIGN CODE TO HELP
ENSURE SAFER ONLINE EXPERIENCES
FROM MINERS. THIS BILL WILL
REQUIRE WEBSITES AND OTHER
ONLINE SERVICES, WHICH ARE
LIKELY TO BE ACCESSED BY
CHILDREN TO OFFER BASIC DEFAULT
, PRIVACY AND SAFETY PROTECTIONS
UNLESS THERE IS A REASONABLE
CERTAINTY THAT THE USER IS AN
ADULT. THE INTERNET. IT SHOULD
BE NOTED AS AN INHERENTLY GLOBAL
ENTITY AND IN CRAFTING THE
PROVISION OF A B 22 73. THE
AUTHORS AND SPONSORS HAVE WORKED
CLOSELY WITH STAKEHOLDERS TO
ENSURE THAT THERE IS CLARITY IN
THE LAW AS WELL AS CONSISTENCY
WITH RESPECT TO THE STANDARDS
THAT ARE NOW IN PLACE IN THE UK
SINCE ITS ENACTMENT IN THE UK
COMPANY AFTER COMPANY HAS CITED
THE GUIDELINES CREATED BY THE
UK'S CODE AS A MODEL FOR
INNOVATION. IN FACT, GOOGLE'S
REPRESENTATIVES RECENTLY
TESTIFIED BEFORE THE BRITISH
PARLIAMENT. THAT THE AGE
APPROPRIATE DESIGN CODE HAS
HELPED THEM DESIGN NEW WAYS TO
KEEP CHILDREN SAFE ONLINE. THIS
CONSIDERED COLLABORATION IS
REFLECTED NOT ONLY IN THE
LANGUAGE OF THE BILL, BUT IN THE
BIPARTISAN SUPPORT A B 22 73 HAS
ENJOYED THROUGHOUT THE
LEGISLATIVE PROCESS. ONCE
ENACTED, A B 22 73 WILL
REPRESENT A MAJOR POSITIVE STEP

ASSEMBLY BILL 2098 BY SOME OF

HEALING ARTS CENTER PAN. THANK
YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT SENATORS,
SO WE UNFORTUNATELY EXPERIENCED
THE GLOBAL SPREAD OF COVID 19
HAS CLAIMED OVER SIX MILLION
PEOPLE WORLDWIDE, INCLUDING
90,000 CALIFORNIANS, MORE THAN A
MILLION AMERICANS. AND THEN DATA
SHOWS THAT UNVACCINATED
INDIVIDUALS ARE DYING AT 14
TIMES THE RATE FROM COVID AND
THOSE ARE FULLY VACCINATED.
UNFORTUNATELY THE SPREAD OF
MISINFORMATION DISINFORMATION
ABOUT COVID 19 VACCINATIONS
BECOME A HUGE ISSUE. PROBABLY
LOST SEVERAL 100,000 AMERICANS
TO THIS DISINFORMATION. SO MAYBE
2098 DECLARES THAT THE
DISSEMINATION PROMOTION OF
MISINFORMATION DISINFORMATION
COVID 19 TO THE PUBLIC AS
UNPROFESSIONAL CONDUCT BY
PHYSICIANS AND PEOPLE DO IT
EXPECT TO GET HONEST, ACCURATE
INFORMATION FROM PHYSICIANS.
UNDER THIS LAW, THE MEDICAL
BOARD OF CALIFORNIA BE GIVEN THE
TOOLS NECESSARY TO BRING
DISPLAYING ACTION AGAINST THE
LICENSEE WHO DECEIVES THEIR
PATIENTS. DUE TO OUR SPECIALIZED
KNOWLEDGE AND TRAINING LICENSED
PHYSICIANS POSSESS THE HIGH
DEGREE OF PUBLIC TRUST. AND
THEREFORE HAVE A POWERFUL
PLATFORM SOCIETY. THE LICENSE IS
A PRIVILEGE, NOT A RIGHT. IT'S A
PRIVILEGE TO HAVE A LICENSE, AND
THAT PRIVILEGE COMES WITH
EXPECTATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITY.
THE SPREADING OF INACCURATE
COVID-19 INFORMATION CONTRADICTS
THAT RESPONSIBILITY AND
THREATENS TO FURTHER ERODE
PUBLIC TRUST THE MEDICAL
PROFESSION AS WELL AS LEADING TO
DISABILITY AND DEATH. EXPECT THE
AFTER AN I VOTE ON A B 2098. THE
MEDICAL BOARD OF CALIFORNIA CAN
DO ITS DUTY AND ENSURING THAT
PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA HAVE ACCESS
TO ACCURATE INFORMATION CAN BE
GOOD DECISIONS ABOUT THEIR OWN

PRESIDENT. UH I'M PRESENTING A B
587 ON BEHALF OF A SEVEN MEMBER
GABRIEL SPONSORED BY THE NTI
DEFAMATION LEAGUE LATELY,
CALIFORNIANS AND OTHERS AROUND
THE COUNTRY HAVE BEEN
INCREASINGLY ALARMED BY THE ROLE
OF SOCIAL MEDIA AND MODERATING,
UM AND SOMETIMES NOT MODERATING.
OUR PUBLIC DISCOURSE. MANY OF
THESE CONCERNS CENTER ON THE
ROLE OF SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS
PLAY AND PROMOTING HATE SPEECH,
DISINFORMATION, CONSPIRACY
THEORIES AND VIOLENT EXTREMISM.
FACEBOOK WHISTLEBLOWER FRANCIS
HOGAN AND OTHERS HAVE
RECOMMENDED THAT HAVE BASICALLY
TESTIFIED THAT SOCIAL MEDIA
PLATFORMS OFTEN RECOMMEND FALSE
CONTENT EVEN WHEN THE USER IS
NOT LOOKING FOR IT. A B 5 87
ADDRESSES THIS TROUBLING LACK OF
TRANSPARENCY BY REQUIRING SOCIAL
MEDIA COMPANIES TO SHARE BASIC
INFORMATION ABOUT THEIR CONTENT
. MODERATION POLICIES TO BE
CLEAR THIS DOES NOT MODERATE
CONTENT, BUT WHAT IT DOES DO IS
IT REQUIRES SOCIAL MEDIA.
COMPANIES THE LARGEST SOCIAL
MEDIA COMPANIES TO DISCLOSE
THEIR CONTENT, MODERATION
POLICIES IF THEY HAVE THEM HOW
THOSE POLICIES ARE ENFORCED IN
ANY CHANGES TO POLICIES OR
ENFORCEMENT. UM THIS NARROW
APPROACH RESPECTS THE FIRST
AMENDMENT AND FEDERAL PREEMPTION
THE SAME TIME PROVIDES
MEANINGFUL TRANSPARENCY, URGE
AND I VOTE. THANK YOU, SENATOR.

THE RECOURSE SHOULD ONE OF THESE

WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THIS

THROUGH THAT THE ATTORNEY
GENERAL CAN I BELIEVE FIND THEM
$15,000 PER DAY PER VIOLATION.
OKAY? UM. SO I KNOW THAT THE, UM
FOR MANAGER HAS STATED THAT THIS
IS NOT AN ATTEMPT TO SENSOR OR
TRACK PEOPLE, BUT I BY LOOKING
AT. THE BILL WHERE IT SAYS SOME
OF THE THINGS THAT NEED TO BE
REPORTED TO THE ATTORNEY
GENERAL, UM INFORMATION ON
CONTENT THAT WAS FLAGGED BY THE
SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANY AS CONTENT
BELONGING TO ANY OF THE
CATEGORIES SUCH AS HATE, SPEECH
OR RACISM, EXTREMISM,
RADICALIZATION, DISINFORMATION
OR MISINFORMATION, HARASSMENT,
FOREIGN POLITICAL INTERFERENCE,
THINGS OF THAT NATURE, AND I
CAN'T HELP BUT WONDER IF THIS IS
NOT IN FACT, AN ATTEMPT FOR THE
ATTORNEY GENERAL TO PERHAPS
HARASSED THE CITIZENS OF
CALIFORNIA, PARTICULARLY THOSE
WHO HAVE AN OPPOSING VIEWPOINT,
AND I DON'T THINK IT IS
APPROPRIATE THAT THE STATE
ATTORNEY GENERAL GET INVOLVED
IN, UM, ANY ATTEMPT TO CENSOR
SPEECH, SO WITH THAT, I WOULD
ASK FOR A NO VOTE. THANK YOU,

THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT. I RISE
ON BEHALF ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S
MCCARTY TO PRESENT A B 7 59.
WHEN ENACTED, A B 7 59 WILL
PROMOTE ENHANCED CITIZEN
PARTICIPATION IN COUNTY
ELECTIONS BY ALIGNING ELECTIONS
FOR THE OFFICES OF SHERIFF AND
DISTRICT ATTORNEY TO COINCIDE
WITH PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION YEARS
LOCAL GOVERNMENT, INCLUDING
COUNTY OFFICERS, AND THEIR
POLICIES, HAS AN IMMEDIATE
DIRECT AND PROFOUND EFFECT ON
ALL OF OUR DAILY LIVES. FURTHER
IT HAS BEEN SHOWN THAT THE
TIMING OF ELECTIONS CAN HAVE A
SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON VOTER
TURNOUT. VOTER TURNOUT AS YOU
ARE PROBABLY AWARE TENDS TO BE
SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER IN
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION YEARS THAN
IN MIDTERM GUBERNATORIAL
ELECTION YEARS. THE HIGHER THE
TURNOUT, THE BROADER THE
ELECTORATE AND THE GREATER THE
LIKELIHOOD OF CANDIDATES WHO ARE
MORE REPRESENTATIVE AND MORE
RESPONSIVE TO TRADITIONALLY
UNDERSERVED IN LOW INCOME
COMMUNITIES. PERHAPS EVEN MORE
IMPORTANTLY, IT IS THESE
COMMUNITIES WHO TEND TO BE MOST
IMPACTED BY THE WORK OF THESE
TWO OFFICES, ENSURING INCREASED
TURNOUT BY ALIGNING ELECTIONS
FOR SHERIFFS AND DHS WILL ENSURE
THAT THE FULLEST POSSIBLE
ELECTORATE WILL MAKE THEIR
VOICES HEARD IN THESE LOCAL
ELECTIONS, WHICH IMPACT THEM THE
MOST FOR THOSE REASONS AND ON
BEHALF OF ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S
RECORDING, I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR I VOTE. TODAY. THANK YOU ANY
FURTHER DISCUSSION OR DEBATE ON
THIS ITEM, SENATOR GLASER. THANK
YOU, MR PRESIDENT MEMBERS. NOW,
THIS IS A BILL I KNOW IS WELL
INTENTIONED, BUT IT UH IT MAKES
ME PULL MY HAIR OUT SOMETIMES
BEING HERE IN THE SENATE. I
DON'T HAVE A LOT OF HAIR TO PULL
OUT. MAYBE THAT'S WHY I DON'T
HAVE A LOT OF HAIR. UM, BUT
LISTEN UP. I MEAN, IF YOU'RE A
CHARTER COUNTY IN CALIFORNIA
TODAY, YOU COULD MAKE THIS
CHOICE TOMORROW. RIGHT NOW. YOU
CAN SEPARATE THESE OFFICES. YOU
CAN MOVE THEM INTO ANY ELECTION
THAT YOU WANTED TO. SO WHY ARE
WE TRYING TO CREATE A ONE SIZE
FITS ALL FOR ALL OF CALIFORNIA?
WHEN SO MANY OF THEM CAN MAKE
THIS CHOICE FOR THEMSELVES. AND
I WOULD POINT OUT ONE THING THAT
SURPRISES ME BECAUSE WE'RE ALL
KIND OF POLITICAL ANIMALS WERE
HERE IN THE SENATE. UM AND YOU
KNOW THE GOOD INTENTIONS ARE WE
WANT AS MANY PEOPLE TO VOTE FOR
A CANDIDATE AS POSSIBLE. THAT'S
A GOOD THING, RIGHT? OKAY. GOOD
THING. BUT YOU KNOW THE
CONSEQUENCE OF THAT AND MOVING
IT TO THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
IT MEANS THAT PEOPLE ARE GOING
TO PAY LESS ATTENTION TO
EVERYTHING BUT THE PRESIDENT.
RIGHT AND HOW ARE YOU GOING TO
GET ANYONE IN THE NEWS BUSINESS
TO PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR RACE
FOR CITY COUNCIL OR ASSEMBLY OR
SENATE OR EVEN SHARE FOR
DISTRICT ATTORNEY? IT'S HARDER
TO DO THAT IN A PRESIDENTIAL
RACE, BUT GOOD INTENTIONS, MORE
PEOPLE ARE GOING TO VOTE. WELL
THEN LET'S LOOK AT IT AGAIN. HOW
MUCH DOES IT COST TO ADVERTISE
IN A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION? YOU
HAVE A LOT MORE PEOPLE VOTING.
IT'S GOING TO CUT THE COST. GO
UP. SO ALL THESE GOOD INTENTIONS
OF HAVING AS MANY PEOPLE
PARTICIPATE GOOD. AND THEN THE
BAD FEWER PEOPLE ARE PAYING
ATTENTION. IT'S GOING TO COST
THE CANDIDATE A LOT MORE AND
WERE TAKEN AWAY LOCAL CONTROL
THAT PEOPLE HAVE RIGHT NOW AND
SO MANY COUNTIES TO DO THAT.
IRONICALLY IF YOU'RE COMING FROM
MY SIDE OF THE AISLE, THIS BILL
IS GOING TO GIVE MY SHERIFF IN
MY COUNTY. WHO MY PARTY HATES A
LOT. AT SIX YEARS. SIX YEARS AGO
NOW. NO MORE A FOUR YEAR TERM.
THIS BILL IS GOING TO GIVE THEM
SIX YEARS. OKAY, SO IF YOU'RE
FROM THE LEFT. YOU MIGHT HAVE
SOME WORRIES ABOUT THAT THAT
WE'RE GOING TO DO THAT BY FIAT
HERE IN THE SENATE, SO I'M GOING
TO JOIN THE ASSOCIATION OF
CLERKS AND ELECTION OFFICIALS.
AND STAND UP AND SAY, DESPITE
THE GOOD INTENTIONS OF THIS
BILL, WHEN YOU LOOK AT IT
CAREFULLY, YOU REALIZE MAYBE
THIS ISN'T WHAT WE SHOULD BE
DOING. HERE IN SACRAMENTO, AND
WE CAN GROW A LITTLE BIT MORE
HAIR. THANK YOU. THANK YOU ANY
FURTHER DISCUSSION OR DEBATE ON
THIS ITEM? HEARING C NUNS,
CENTER NEWMAN. WOULD YOU LIKE TO
CLOSE? YES I APPRECIATE MY
COLLEAGUE'S VERY PASSIONATE
RESPONSE. AND I'D LIKE TO OFFER
HIM SOME HAIR. I GET MY HAIR CUT
OR BETTER FOR TWO WEEKS. YOU'RE
WELCOME. TO WHATEVER I HAVE.
FROM THOSE VISITS. UM BUT TO MY
COLLEAGUE'S POINT, SO INTO THAT
QUESTION, WHY DO WE NEED A ONE
SIZE FITS ALL APPROACH? MY
COLLEAGUE FROM ORANGE COUNTY HAD
A SIMILAR MEASURE FOR COUNTY
BOARD OF EDUCATION. WE NEED A
ONE SIZE FITS ALL APPROACH. FOR
THOSE COUNTIES AND FOR THOSE
LOCALITIES WHO FOR WHATEVER
REASON, REFUSE FOR REASONS OF
THEIR OWN TO MAKE THOSE CHANGES
WHO WHO ARE WARY FOR REASONS
THAT ARE FAIRLY OBVIOUS OF A
MORE REPRESENTATIVE ELECTORATE,
SO YOU KNOW IT'S MY BELIEF. LET
ME LET ME POINT TO ANOTHER.
ISSUE MY COLLEAGUE FOR AN UPDATE
THE SIX YEARS OF COURSE, IT'S
NOT A PERMANENT TERM. THAT'S
SIMPLY WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IN THE
EVENT THAT THIS WERE PHASED IN
FOR INCUMBENTS. NOW THAT WOULD
EVENTUALLY GO TO A NORMAL CYCLE
, BUT MORE GENERALLY, IT'S MY
BELIEF AND I'M GUESSING THAT
IT'S BELIEVED THAT MOST OF YOU
SHARE THAT THE BROADER THE
ELECTORATE. UH, AND THE GREATER
THE PARTICIPATION. THE MORE
REPRESENTATIVE THE OUTCOME. THIS
IS A VERY REASONABLE, REASONABLE
, INHERENTLY SMALL D DEMOCRATIC
MEASURE AND I URGE YOUR I VOTE.
THANK YOU. MEMBERS UH, NO

ASIDE AT LEAST 5% OF ALL
AFFORDABLE HOUSING TAX CREDITS
FOR THE PURPOSE OF CREATING NEW
HIGH QUALITY FARMWORKER HOUSING

ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S KALRA AN ACT
RELATING TO CANNABIS. SENATOR
ROTH. THE FLOOR IS YOURS. MR
PRESIDENT FOUR YEARS AGO,
ASSEMBLY BILL 22 15 WAS CHAPTER
INTOLAW. THE BILL ALLOWED
VETERINARIANS TO DISCUSS BUT NOT
RECOMMEND THE USE OF CANNABIS
WITHOUT FEAR OF LOSING THEIR
STATE LICENSE. SINCE THEN, MUCH
EVIDENCE HAS COME TO LIGHT
DEMONSTRATING THE THERAPEUTIC
POTENTIAL OF ANIMAL CANNABIS
PRODUCTS. THIS BILL ADDRESSES
THE ISSUE BY ALLOWING
VETERINARIANS TO RECOMMEND
THERAPEUTIC CANNABIS PRODUCTS
FOR ANIMAL PATIENTS AND
REQUIRING THE VETERINARY MEDICAL
BOARD TO ADOPT GUIDELINES FOR
VETERINARIANS TO FOLLOW WHEN
MAKING THESE RECOMMENDATIONS.
AMENDMENTS HAVE BEEN TAKEN TO
ADDRESS ISSUES RAISED BY THE
DEPARTMENT OF CANNABIS CONTROL.
AND THE DEPARTMENT IS SATISFIED
WITH THE AMENDMENTS. BILLS

HERZBERG. HE'S PREPARED,
SECRETARY. PLEASE READ ASSEMBLY
BILL 24 38 BY ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S
FRIEDMAN AN ACT RELATING
TRANSPORTATION, SENATOR
HERTZBERG THANK YOU VERY MUCH,
MR PRESIDENT. ONE OF THE GREAT
CHALLENGES THAT WE HAVE IS WE
DRAFT LEGISLATION IN VARIOUS
DIFFERENT AREAS OF THE LAW IS TO
TRY TO INTEGRATE OUR GOALS INTO
AN INTELLIGENT APPROACH. ON
SEPTEMBER 9TH SEPTEMBER 20TH
2019 GOVERNOR, NEWSOM ISSUED AN
EXECUTIVE ORDER CREATING CAP T
CLIMATE ACTION PLAN FOR
TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE,
TRYING TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE BIG
PICTURE TO INTEGRATE THE VARIOUS
ACTIVITIES OF AGENCIES AND
PARTICULARLY WHERE G HDS ARE
PRODUCED INTO A COMPREHENSIVE
PLAN SO THAT WE KNOW WHAT THE
RIGHT HAND VERSUS THE LEFT HAND
IS DOING AND TRYING TO BE MORE
EFFECTIVE. AND THAT'S WHAT
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S FRIEDMAN IS
DOING WITH RESPECT TO THIS
MEASURE. IT'S NOT PUTTING
CALIFORNIA AS SHE HAS MENTIONED
ON THE FLOOR IS NOT PUTTING
TRANSPORTATION FUNDING. WORSE
STATE'S PRIORITIES ARE
TRANSPORTATION PROGRAMS. MR
CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS RECEIVED
THE LARGEST FUNDING ALLOCATIONS
AND YET DO NOT MEET OUR CLIMATE
GOALS. WE SPEND APPROXIMATELY
$30 BILLION PER YEAR ON
TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE,
AND YET APPROXIMATELY 2% OF
STATE FUNDED TRANSPORTATION
PROGRAMS. ARE ALIGNED WITH OUR
STATE CLIMATE GOALS. IT'S
PAINFUL. IT'S TOUGH. THERE IS NO
QUESTION WE KNOW THAT THE
TRANSPORTATION SECTOR CONTINUES
TO BE THE LARGEST SOURCE OF GHG
EMISSIONS IN OUR STATE. IN FACT,
TRANSPORTATION SOURCES ACCOUNT
FOR ROUGHLY 80% OF SMOG FORMING
EMISSIONS AND 90% OF DIESEL
PARTICULATE EMISSIONS IN
CALIFORNIA. AS A STATE. WE HAVE
PUT OUR MONEY WHERE OUR MOUTH
IS, AND BEGUN TO INCORPORATE
THAT WITH RESPECT TO, UH THIS
CAPPED I AND A B 24 38 CODIFIES
THE STATE'S COMMITMENT TO
CONSIDER CLIMATE STRATEGIES WHEN
MAKING FUNDED THIS FUNDING
DECISIONS IN THE TRANSPORTATION
SECTOR UNDER THE CALIFORNIA
TRANSPORTATION AGENCY ACTION
PLAN FOR TRANSPORTATION AS I
MENTIONED IT'S DESIGNED TO BE A
HOLISTIC FRAMEWORK MEMBERS, UH,
FOR ALIGNING STATE
TRANSPORTATION INVESTMENTS WITH
THE STATE'S CLIMATE, HEALTH AND
SOCIAL EQUITY GOALS. IT REQUIRES
GUIDELINES AND PROJECT
NOMINATION PROCESS FOR THE
STATE'S LARGEST TRANSPORTATION
FUNDING. THE CALIFORNIA
TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION, THE
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION,
THE CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION
AGENCY, ARE ALL MAKING THIS
COMMITMENT UNDER THIS
ADMINISTRATION BY INCORPORATING
COMPLETE STREETS. AND BY
ANALYZING VEHICLE VEHICLES,
MILES TRAVELED AND FUNDING
TRANSIT. SO THIS MEASURE HELPS
THEM MAKE IT ACROSS THE LINE. I
PERSONALLY WAS HESITANT TO
SUPPORT THIS BILL AND SENATE
TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE WHEN I
WAS APPOINTED FOR ONE DAY TO
SERVE, AND I ABSTAINED FROM THIS
MEASURE AT THAT TIME, HOWEVER,
AMENDMENTS SINCE THAT TIME HAVE
MADE THIS POLICY COMMITTEE MADE
ME A SUPPORTER OF THIS BILL. I
APPLAUD THE WORK OF THE AUTHOR.
THE ASSEMBLY TRANSPORTATION
COMMITTEE CHAIR THE OPPOSITION
TO GET THIS BILL IN A PLACE
WHERE TRANSPORTATION CALIFORNIA
, THE CALIFORNIA STATE
ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES, THE
LEAGUE OF CALIFORNIA CITIES AND
RURAL COUNTY, REPRESENTATIVES OF
CALIFORNIA COMMUNITIES ARE ALL
NEUTRAL. THAT'S A VERY BIG DEAL
WITH THIS KIND OF AN ISSUE
MEMBERS. I ASKED FOR AN I VOTE.
THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.
ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION DEBATE
CENTERED KOBACH. THANK YOU, MR
PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS I RISE
WITH CONCERNS FOR A B 24 38. ONE
OF THE THINGS I LOVE THE MOST
ABOUT CALIFORNIA IS ITS
DIVERSITY, ITS PEOPLE, ITS
TOPOGRAPHY AND THE DIVERSITY OF
THOUGHT THAT WE ARE AFFORDED IN
THIS BEAUTIFUL AND FREE COUNTRY
. THAT IS WHERE I FIND IT. SO
CONCERNING WHEN I SEE THIS ONE
SIZE FITS ALL MANDATES BEING
PUSHED ON OUR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
, THESE MANDATES HANDCUFF ARE
LOCALS FROM BEING CREATIVE. THEY
STIFLE INNOVATION THAT ACCOUNTS
FOR THE CULTURE IN THE WAY OF
LIFE IN THE REGION, AND
ULTIMATELY WE FORCE AND
UNWORKABLE SOLUTION THAT IT MAY
BE GREAT IN THEORY, BUT FAILS IN
IMPLEMENTATION. THEN WE COME
BACK FOR THE NEXT LEGISLATIVE
SESSION. IN OUR PREVIOUS
SOLUTIONS BECOME THE NEW PROBLEM
WE ARE TRYING TO SOLVE A B 24 38
DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THE
STAGGERING INVESTMENTS THE STATE
MUST MAKE NOT JUST IN COASTAL
URBAN CENTERS BUT ALSO IN MORE
INLAND REGIONS BEFORE HE
COMPREHENSIVE REWRITE OF
CRITICAL FUNDING PROGRAMS CAN BE
CONSIDERED. THIS BILL PLACES THE
CART BEFORE THE HORSE AND IT
WILL HAVE INSURMOUNTABLE
RAMIFICATIONS IN UNDER RESOURCED
REGIONS AND DISADVANTAGED
COMMUNITIES. MANY COMMUNITIES,
ESPECIALLY IN THE INLAND EMPIRE
. DO NOT HAVE FUNDING
INFRASTRUCTURE OR NECESSARY
RIGHTS OF WAY TO IMMEDIATELY
TRANSITION AWAY FROM BROADWAY
USAGE. THIS BILL WILL NOT CREATE
A JUST AND EQUITABLE TRANSITION
BUT RATHER SERVE TO FURTHER
INTENSIFY AN ALREADY DIRE
CIRCUMSTANCE OF INEQUITY.
HISTORICALLY THE III HAS BEEN
OVERLOOKED, IF NOT OUTRIGHT
DISREGARDED WHEN IT COMES TO
STATE AND FEDERAL FUNDING, WHICH
HAS RESULTEDIN AREAS WHERE
TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE IN
TRANSIT OPTIONS ARE DECADES
BEHIND WHERE THEY SHOULD BE.
HOWEVER I DO NOT WANT MY
COLLEAGUES TO THINK THAT I'M
SUGGESTING THAT WE SIT BACK AND
DO NOTHING. IN FACT, DOING MY
TIME AS THE INLAND EMPIRE CAUCUS
CHAIR AND IN MY CURRENT ROLE AS
THE VICE CHAIR I HAVE MADE
ADDRESSING TRANSPORTATION ISSUES
IN THE INLAND EMPIRE A TOP
PRIORITY. IF WE WANT TO TRULY BE
EFFECTIVE, THEN WE NEED TO
SUPPORT OUR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS IN
TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITIES WITH
THE RESOURCES, THE TOOLS AND,
MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE
INCENTIVES. RATHER THAN
PUNISHMENTS TO BRING OUR
INFRASTRUCTURE INTO THE 21ST
CENTURY IN A WAY THAT ACCOUNTS
FOR DIVERSITY OF THIS STATE, A B
24 38 DOES NOT PROVIDE OUR
COMMUNITIES WITH INVESTMENTS AND
FLEXIBILITY REQUIRED TO BUILD
THE CAPACITY OF A MULTI MODAL
TRANSIT SYSTEM. IT DOES NOT
PROVIDE AN INNOVATIVE AND
SUSTAINABLE TRANSPORTATION
SOLUTION THAT IS ACCESSIBLE.
EQUITABLE AND INCLUSIVE OF ALL
REGIONS. FOR THESE REASONS, I
RESPECTFULLY ASK MY COLLEAGUES
TO CONSIDER JOINING ME BOARDING.
NO THANK YOU, SENATOR OFF. THANK
YOU, MR PRESIDENT. QUESTION OF
THE FLOOR MANAGER. THIS FLOOR
MANAGER. WOULD YOU TAKE A
QUESTION? I WILL. INDEED SIMPLE
QUESTION I HAVE IS WILL THIS
BILL EITHER DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY BY LEADING TO
POLICIES. LEAD TO POLICIES THAT
RESTRICT THE APPROVAL OF
TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS CAPACITY
PROJECTS THAT INCREASE VEHICLE
MILES TRAVELED. PROJECTS SUCH AS
THOSE THAT WE NEED IN INLAND
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA TO MOVE
PEOPLE FROM HOMES THAT THE STATE
REQUIRES BE BUILT. WHERE WE ARE
TWO JOBS WHERE THEY ARE NOT YEAH
. UM FIRST OF ALL, THANK YOU
VERY MUCH, SENATOR. THE IT IS
NOT PRESCRIPTIVE. THE MATTER IS
NOT PRESCRIPTIVE INFORMATION SO
THAT, UH. TO MAKE DETERMINATIONS
OF HOW TO DEAL WITH POLICY, OF
COURSE IN THE FUTURE, BUT IT'S
NOT PRESCRIPTIVE. IT'S JUST
INFORMATIONAL. WELL WHAT DOES
THAT MEAN? AND MAY I ASK FOLLOW
UP QUESTIONS. MR PRESIDENT. YOU
MAY. WELL, WHAT EXACTLY DOES
THAT MEAN? WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT
IT'S NOT PRESCRIPTIVE, BUT IT
TALKS ABOUT POLICIES. AFTER ALL,
YOU MENTIONED VM T. YEAH IT'S
ONE OF THE DATA POINTS THAT WE
CAN LOOK AT. WE MAKE THIS
DETERMINATION. THIS IS NOT ONE
SIZE FITS ALL THIS IS A
SITUATION PARTICULARLY WAS
MENTIONED BY THE SENATOR FROM
YUCAIPA. THE BILL ADDS THE
ADMINISTRATION'S APPLICABILITY
OF CAPT. E STRATEGIES INTO
WHAT'S NEEDED TO BE CONSIDERED
IN THE PROGRAM GUIDELINES AND
PROJECT NOMINATION PROCESS. SO
IT SEEMS TO ME THAT IT INCLUDES
ENOUGH FLEXIBILITY GATHERS DATA
SO THAT THEN YOU CAN MAKE THOSE
DETERMINATIONS, BUT IT'S
CERTAINLY NOT A VEHICLE, MILES
TRAVELED PRESCRIPTION. THERE'S
NO VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED AT ALL
MY TIME. MY OWN TIME. THANK YOU
VERY MUCH ON YOUR OWN TIME
CENTER OFF. I'VE BEEN TALKING
ABOUT THIS YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER
YEAR, INCLUDING TO THE AUTHOR OF
THIS BILL. THE STATE'S POLICIES
ARE NOT COORDINATED. WE HAVE
ARENA POLICY THAT REQUIRES S TO
PLAN AND HOPEFULLY BUILD FOR
HOUSING IN INLAND SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA, THOUSANDS AND
THOUSANDS OF UNITS WHY THE HOUSE
PEOPLE WHO TAKE JOBS. BUT JOBS
ARE IN THE COASTAL AREAS OF THIS
STATE. WE HAVE STATE POLICIES
THROUGH GO BIZ THAT ENCOURAGE
THE RETENTION RECRUITMENT
EXPANSION OF EMPLOYERS AND JOBS
IN THE URBAN COASTAL AREAS OF
THE STATE. MR FARMER MAJORITY
LEADER, INCLUDING WHERE YOU ARE
FROM THERE IS NO THERE IS
INSUFFICIENT HOUSING BEING BUILT
THERE. AND THE HOUSING IS WHERE
WE ARE WHERE I REPRESENT. AND
THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN THOSE
HOUSES HAVE TO GET TO THOSE JOBS
IN THE COASTAL AREAS. WE HAVE NO
RAIL. WE HAVE. DON'T HAVE
TRANSIT. YOU CAN'T TAKE A BUS
FROM RIVERSIDE COUNTY TO LOS
ANGELES COUNTY TO GET TO A JOB.
AND YET GOVERNMENT AGENCIES HAVE
IMPLEMENTED A VEHICLE MILES
TRAVEL POLICY HERE. THAT DOES
NOT WORK FOR US. YOU CANNOT
RESTRICT BY POLICY BY PLANNING
OR ANY IN ANY OTHER WAY.
CAPACITY PROJECTS. THAT ALLOW
PEOPLE TO LIVE IN THE HOUSES
WHERE I AM AND GET TO THE JOBS
WHERE YOU ARE. AND I DON'T KNOW
WHAT ALL THIS MEANS. BUT YOU
MENTIONED VEHICLE MILES
TRAVELED. AND SINCE I DON'T KNOW
I'M GOING TO HAVE TO OPPOSE THE
BILL TODAY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR
TOLERANCE. THANK YOU. YOU NEED
ADDITIONAL DISCUSSION, SENATOR
CABALLERO. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
MR PRESIDENT. I RISE. UM IN
OPPOSITION TO THIS BILL, AS WELL
AND LET ME TELL YOU WHY I WANT
TO AGREE WITH MY GOOD COLLEAGUE
FROM YUCAIPA AND FROM RIVERSIDE.
UM I WAS WORKING ON A BILL THIS
YEAR. TO GET INFORMATION ABOUT
VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED AS A WAY
FOR US TO UNDERSTAND A LITTLE
BIT BETTER THAN NEGATIVE IMPACT
IT WILL HAVE ON THE ABILITY FOR
COMMUNITIES TO PLAN AND TO BUILD
HOUSING IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA. UM AND ONE OF THE
REALLY INTERESTING THINGS THAT I
LEARNED FROM ONE OF THE
WITNESSES FROM RIVERSIDE AS A
MATTER OF FACT. IS THAT
RIVERSIDE WAS ATTEMPTING TO MAKE
SOME SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS ON AND
OFF THE HIGHWAY TO BE ABLE TO
HELP THEIR RESIDENTS TO ACCESS
THE HIGHWAY TO BE ABLE TO GET TO
THE JOBS THAT ARE LOCATED NEAR
THE COASTAL REGION, AND THEY
WERE STOPPED AND THE PROJECT
COULD NOT GET FUNDED BY CALTRANS
BECAUSE IT WOULD INCREASE
VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED. AND THEY
WERE PROHIBITED FROM MAKING
SAFETY AND IMPROVEMENTS TO THE
HIGHWAY BECAUSE OF VEHICLE MILES
TRAVELED THAT VEHICLE MILES
TRAVELED WAS NEVER INTENDEDTO
STOP HIGHWAY PROJECTS THAT ARE
DESIGNED TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC.
IT WAS NEVER INTENDED TO BE USED
FOR HIGHWAY PROJECTS AT ALL. AS
A MATTER OF FACT, IT WAS AN
ATTEMPT TO BE ABLE TO COME UP
WITH A STRATEGY TO EXPLAIN HOW
YOU WERE GOING TO PUT A WHOLE
BUNCH OF PEOPLE IN IN AN INFILL
PROJECT, SUCH AS HER STADIUM OR
ARENA. OR SOME OTHER FACILITY
WHERE YOU COULDN'T MITIGATE THE
TRAFFIC BECAUSE THERE WAS THERE
WERE GOING TO BE PUTTING TOO
MANY PEOPLE IN THAT AREA ALL AT
ONCE AND SO VEHICLE MILES WAS
DESIGNED OVER THE LEVEL OF
SERVICE. UM MEASURE THAT WE USED
TO USE AND UM AND SO IT IT'S IN
. IT IS SPECIFICALLY OR IT WAS
SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR INFILL
IN HIGHLY URBANIZED AREAS AND AT
IT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.
UM DURING ONE OF THE LEGISLATIVE
SESSIONS, ONE OF THE BILLS WAS
AMENDED, AND THIS WAS THE
VEHICLE. MILES WAS STUCK IN
THERE AS A REFERENCE TO THE REST
OF THE STATE, AND IT STARTED TO
CAPTURE ALL OF OUR COMMUNITIES.
VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED HAS
DETRIMENTAL AND DELETERIOUS
IMPACT ON OUR COMMUNITIES, AND
NOBODY WANTS TO TAKE A LOOK AT
IT, BUT WE KEEP EXTENDING HOW WE
USE IT. TWO MORE AND MORE AREAS
AND I TELL YOU IT'S ONE OF THE
FACTORS THAT THAT IS GOING TO
CREATE CREATE A VERY DIFFICULT
TIME FOR LOCAL COMMUNITIES TO BE
ABLE TO BUILD HOUSING BECAUSE
THEY'VE GOT TO CONSIDER THE
VEHICLE. MILES TRAVELED THAT
PEOPLE HAVE TO GO. UM AND IT'S
GOING TO COST THEM. IN MY
COMMUNITY. YOU CAN'T TELL PEOPLE
TO GET TO WORK ON A BIKE. YOU
CAN NOT TELL PEOPLE THAT THEY
NEED TO WALK TO WORK THAT JUST
DOESN'T WORK. AND, UM SO I'M I'M
I STAND UP AND I'M SADLY OPPOSED
TO USING VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED
IN THIS IN THIS WAY. THE MY
UNDERSTANDING IS THE BILL WOULD
IMPACT FUNDING. FUNDING AND
ANYTIME YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT
FUNDING, AND IT MEANS
COMMUNITIES GET MONEY AND SOME
SOME DON'T AND SO I RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR A NO VOTE. THANK YOU.
YOU NEED FURTHER DISCUSSION OR
DEBATE, SENATOR DALLI. I JUST
WANT TO REAL QUICKLY ECHO THE
COMMENTS FOR THOSE OF US WHO
REPRESENT RURAL AREAS. VEHICLE
MILES TRAVELED. THIS IS A ONE
SIZE FITS ALL BILL, WHICH IS
GOING TO IMPACT ALL THOSE AREAS
THAT ARE OUTSIDE OF THOSE
COASTAL ZONES WHERE YOU DO NOT
HAVE PUBLIC TRANSIT. WE DO NOT
HAVE PUBLIC CHANCES IN THE
MAJORITY OF MY DISTRICT. AND SO
FOR THOSE REASONS I HAVE OPPOSED
THIS BILL. ANY FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE. HERE WE
ARE. STERN OKAY, I'M SORRY. I
CAN SEE YOU IN THE GLARE,
SENATOR STERN. THANK YOU
MEMBERS. I WASN'T PLANNING TO
RISE AND SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF
THIS MEASURE. UM BUT LISTENING
TO SOME OF THE DISCUSSION AND
DEBATE HERE. I APPRECIATE THE
FRUSTRATION OF MY COLLEAGUES
FROM INLAND AREAS. UM THE WAY I
UNDERSTAND THIS MEASURE. AND THE
ARK OF OUR INVESTMENT STRATEGY
IS TO TAKE SOME OF THAT BURDEN.
OFF OF THE RIVERSIDE COUNTIES
AND THE INLAND AREAS. TO NOT
FORCE UM YOU TO ABSORB ALL THE
ARENA REQUIREMENTS THAT L A IS
NOT SATISFYING. TO FORCE THE
COASTAL AREAS TO DO THEIR FAIR
SHARE. SO I DON'T I DON'T QUITE
UNDERSTAND THIS MEASURE AS A AS
A MEANS TO UNDERMINE IN ANY WAY
. UM THE DEVELOPMENT THAT'S
GOING ON IN THERE, BUT RATHER TO
TAKE THAT BURDEN OFF OF THOSE
INLAND AREAS AND TO HAVE LESS
SUPER COMMUTERS TRYING TO GET TO
WORK EVERYDAY DRIVING 34 HOURS
ROUND TRIP PEOPLE IN SAN
BERNARDINO RIGHT NOW. GO WORK IN
LOS ANGELES, CLEAN HOUSES. THEY
WORK IN RETAIL. THEY DO HARD
JOBS. THAT'S THE ONLY PLACE YOU
CAN REALLY AFFORD TO LIVE AS A
WORKING CLASS PERSON ON THE
PERIPHERIES OF LOS ANGELES, SO I
THINK IT'S INCUMBENT ON US TO
START PUTTING THAT HOUSING
BURDEN ON THE INLAND AREAS. AND
TO ME ONCE YOU START BUILDING
THAT INFRASTRUCTURE IN AND
FORCING PLACES LIKE WHERE I LIVE
, AND I'VE BEEN VOTING ON A LOT
OF HOUSING BILLS TODAY. I DON'T
ALWAYS DO THAT. BUT I WANT TO
SAY YES. BECAUSE IT'S NOT FAIR
TO JUST SPRAWLOUR WAY INTO THE
FUTURE, SO I APPRECIATE THE
CONCERN AND THE HESITANCE, BUT
BUT I READ THIS BILL REALLY IS A
WAY TO RESET THAT BURDEN AND
HOPEFULLY TURN THE CORNER AND
THAT'S THAT'S WHY I WILL BE
SUPPORTING THE MEASURE TODAY.
THANK YOU ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION
OR DEBATE ON THIS ITEM? HEARING
C NONE. CENTER HERZBERG. WOULD
YOU LIKE TO CLOSE INDEED WOULD
LIKE TO CLOSE AND I WOULD LIKE
TO UM PASSIONATELY AGREE WITH MY
COLLEAGUES FROM RIVERSIDE AND
SALINAS AND YOU, KEIPER AND
BIEBER OR WHATEVER THAT IS
SOMEPLACE UP IN THE NORTH.
YOU'RE RIGHT. THAT'S EXACTLY
WHAT THIS BILL IS TRYING TO DO.
0.1. VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED IS
NOT MENTIONED IN THE BILL. THERE
IS SOME REFERENCE THAT'S ALREADY
EXISTING IN THE LAW. BUT THAT'S
NOT WHAT THIS IS ABOUT. THIS IS
ABOUT EMISSIONS. SO IF YOU HAD A
WIDER FREEWAY WHERE PEOPLE COULD
TRAVEL FASTER AS A SOLUTION, AS
OPPOSED TO A PLACE WHERE PEOPLE
ARE SITTING IN TRAFFIC AND
CREATE A LOT MORE EMISSIONS,
THAT MIGHT BE SOMETHING THAT YOU
PUT INTO THE PLAN. THERE IS NO
PRESCRIPTION. BUT WHAT HAPPENS
IS THIS GOVERNMENT IS TRYING TO
FIGURE OUT HOW TO REDUCE GHG G S
. WE HAVE A SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM
. IT DOESN'T TELL YOU IT IS NOT
ONE SIZE FITS ALL. THAT IS
PRECISELY AS I SAID IN MY
OPENING WHY THE RURAL COUNTY
REPRESENTATIVES HAVE GONE
NEUTRAL. IT'S WHY THE LEAGUE OF
CITIES AND THE STATE ASSOCIATION
OF COUNTIES AND TRANSPORTATION
CALIFORNIA HAVE GONE NEUTRAL ON
THIS MEASURE. IT IS SOMETHING
THAT MOVES AWAY FROM A VERY
DIFFICULT ISSUE OF VEHICLE.
MILES TRAVELED, WHICH I MYSELF
HAVE PROBLEMS WITH TO A
DIFFERENT KIND OF STANDARD THAT
TRIES TO INTEGRATE WHAT THE
GOVERNOR'S DOING AND TO TRY TO
BE SMART ABOUT IT AND TO TRY TO
LOOK AT DATA. IT'S A PLANNING
BILL SO WE CAN MAKE THOSE
DETERMINATIONS. IT'S NOT A
VEHICLE. MILES TRAVELED BILL. IT
IS NOT A PRESCRIPTIVE BILL, AND
I THINK AT THE HEART OF WHAT IT
DOES IT GETS TO THE ARCHITECTURE
OF CALIFORNIA, WHERE WE DO HAVE
PEOPLE IN MY COMMUNITIES IN THE
SAN FERNANDO VALLEY, THE DRIVE
TO OTHER PARTS OF LOS ANGELES TO
GO TO WORK. WE ALL HAVE THIS
LARGER PROBLEM, BUT WE'VE GOT TO
GET TO WORK. WE'VE GOT TO FIGURE
IT OUT. WE'VE GOT TO GATHER THE
DATA I ASK FOR YOUR VOTE. THANK

SECRETARY YOU MAY READ. ASSEMBLY
BILL 8 57 BY ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S
KALRA AND ACT RELATING TO
EMPLOYMENT. SENATOR TERRAZZO.
THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT. MAYBE
857 WOULD REQUIRE HTWE VISA
EMPLOYERS TO PROVIDE ALL AGE TO
A FARM WORKERS ON THEIR FIRST
DAY OF WORK WITH WRITTEN NOTICE
OF KEY STATE AND FEDERAL
EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS LAST YEAR,
MORE THAN 30,000 FOREIGN FARM
WORKERS WERE IMPORTED BY ROUGHLY
150, CALIFORNIA GROWERS. AND
FARM LABOR CONTRACTORS UNDER THE
H TWO, A FEDERAL VISA PROGRAM.
THIS NUMBER HAS BEEN INCREASING
ANNUALLY. H TWO A FARM WORKERS
IN CALIFORNIA ARE LARGELY WE
COULDN'T AND MEXICO AND ARE TIED
TO A SINGLE CALIFORNIA EMPLOYER
WHO PROVIDES THEM WITH HOUSING
MEALS AND EXCLUSIVE
TRANSPORTATION TO WORK SITES.
MANY OF THEM HAVE NEVER BEEN TO
CALIFORNIA BEFORE, AND NEITHER
SPEAK NOR READ ENGLISH. IF THEY
ARE FIRED FOR ANY REASON THEY'RE
SUBJECT TO IMMEDIATE DEPORTATION
, WHICH IS A POWERFUL
DISINCENTIVE TO REPORT ANY
WORKPLACE. UM VIOLATIONS THAT
THEY'RE SUBJECTED TO SIMPLY
REQUIRES HTWE EMPLOYERS TO
PROVIDE TO A VISA FARM WORKERS
ON THE FIRST DAY OF WORK A
SHORT, COMPREHENSIVE WRITTEN
SUMMARY. KEY LABOR, HOUSING AND
HEALTH AND SAFETY LAWS IN
SPANISH AND IF REQUESTED IN
ENGLISH. THIS BILL ALSO DIRECTS
THE LABOR COMMISSIONER TO
DEVELOP A TEMPLATE FOR THE
NOTICE AND POSTED ON THE WEBSITE
. A B 5857 WILL ENSURE THAT H
TWO A FARM WORKERS ARE AWARE OF
THEIR RIGHTS UNDER STATE AND
FEDERAL LAW. I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR YOUR VOTE. ANY FURTHER
DISCUSSION DEBATE ON THIS ITEM.
GROWTH, SENATOR GROVE. YES THANK
YOU. MR PRESIDENT. QUESTION OF
THE AUTHOR. WITH THE FLOOR
MANAGER. TAKE A QUESTION. YES
SHE WILL. THANK YOU, MADAM
PRESIDENT. THANK YOU. MR
PRESIDENT. IS THIS BILL? UM IS
IT IN ADDITION TO WHAT'S ALREADY
REQUIRED BY EMPLOYERS TO PROVIDE
IN THE EMPLOYEE'S DOMINANT
LANGUAGE, WHETHER IT'S SPANISH
ENGLISH. I THINK THERE'S SIX
LANGUAGES THEY HAVE TO PROVIDE
IT IN. IS IT DIFFERENT OR
DUPLICATED OF AN I PP UM AND THE
CAL OSHA SAFETY ORDERS UNDER
TITLE EIGHT OR IS IT WILL THOSE
ORDERS AND INFORMATION IS
PROVIDED TO EMPLOYEES. SUFFICE
THIS BILL OR DO YOU HAVE TO GIVE
IT TO HIM TWICE? I WILL TRY TO
ANSWER THAT. IT APPEARS THAT THE
FIRST OF ALL, THE LABOR
COMMISSIONER WILL BE REQUIRED TO
DEVELOP THAT TEMPLATE. UM, AND
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT BOTH STATE
AND FEDERAL LAWS. SO I ASSUME
THAT WHAT IS BEING PROVIDED NOW?
DOESN'T FULLY MEET WHAT THE BILL
CALLS FOR. SO UNDER CALIFORNIA
STATE LAW, EMPLOYERS ARE
REQUIRED TO HAVE EMPLOYEES SIGN.
I TYPED IN THE LANGUAGE OF THEIR
CHOICE. A REQUEST THE I. P P
GOES OVER WAGES HOURS WORKING
CONDITIONS THAT TALKS ABOUT THE
POLICIES FOR, UM, BENEFITS OF
FOUR OH ONE K. IT ALSO TALKS
ABOUT THE POLICIES ON HOW YOU
CAN WORK SAFELY AT WORK. IT ALSO
TALKS ABOUT THE REQUIREMENTS ON
HOW TO TURN A TIMECARD GET PAID
. HE TALKS ABOUT EMERGENCY
EVACUATION. I MEAN, THERE'S A
WHOLE LIST OF THINGS THAT TAKE
PLACE, AND I THINK THAT WHAT
YOU'RE ASKING FOR IS DUPLICATED.
AND THEN IF YOU GO TO TITLE
LATE, WHICH IS REQUIRED HELLO.
SHE'S LAW. IT ALSO REQUIRES YOU
TO PROVIDE SAFETY ORIENTATIONS
AND SAFETY TRAININGS.
EVACUATIONS UM YOU KNOW WHERE
THE SAFEST PLACE TO GO IF
THERE'S AN EARTHQUAKE, UM, WHERE
THE BATHROOMS ARE BREAKS, MEAL
AND REST PERIOD REST RECOVERY
PERIODS. SO UM, I JUST WANT TO
MAKE SURE THAT SO EMPLOYERS AND
LIKE THE COW CHAMBER AND
EVERYBODY WILL GET NOTICES OUT
TO M PLAYERS. WHAT WE'RE
PROVIDING FOR THEM IS EXACTLY
WHAT YOU'RE ASKING TO PROVIDE
FOR THEM IN THIS BILL, SO I JUST
WANT TO MAKE SURE BECAUSE OF THE
PENALTIES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS
BILL. WE, AS EMPLOYERS WOULD NOW
PROVIDE I'D THIS INFORMATION
TWICE. TO THE EMPLOYEES INSTEAD
OF JUST ONCE, ACCORDING TO THIS
BILL. AGAIN I WHAT I UNDERSTAND
IS THAT IT'S BOTH STATE AND
FEDERAL. WHICH MAY NOT, UM, I'M
NOT EXACTLY SURE WHAT IS BEING
DONE, AND IT ALSO IS TO MAKE
SURE THAT THIS IS ADDRESSED TO H
TWO A VISA HOLDERS. YES AND THIS
CALIFORNIA LAW UNDER I P P
PROGRAMS AND KALUSHA TITLE EIGHT
DOES COVER ANYONE WHO'S EMPLOYED
. THEY DON'T SEPARATE PEOPLE
THAT HAVE HTWE VISAS. THEY DON'T
SEPARATE, UNDOCUMENTED OR
DOCUMENTED. THEY DON'T SEPARATE
WHITE VERSUS BLACK. IT'S
EVERYBODY WHO RECEIVES A
PAYCHECK FROM A COMPANY AND IT
ACTUALLY COVERS ALL OF THIS. AND
AGAIN. I'M JUST ASKING TO MAKE
SURE THAT EMPLOYERS KNOW THAT
WHEN WE HIRE SOMEBODY, WE WILL
PROVIDE THEM WITH THE I P. P
PROGRAM. THE CAL OSHA TITLE LAID
ENTITLEMENTS UNDER THE LAW THAT
THEY'RE REQUIRED TO KNOW AND
THEN WHEN WE GIVE IT TO THEM
AGAIN. BECAUSE THIS LAW REQUIRES
US TO DO IT AGAIN BECAUSE OF THE
PENALTY. THAT'S ALL I WANT TO
KNOW. OKAY? THANK YOU. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR A NO VOTE.
I THINK IT'S DUPLICATED.
ACTUALLY. NO, IT'S DUPLICATED.

RELATING TO HOUSING SENATOR
WIENER. THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT
. I RISE TO PRESENT A B 14 45 ON
BEHALF OF SOME REMEMBER LEVIN
DUE TO CLIMATE CHANGE MORE AREAS
OR A STATE WILL BE VULNERABLE TO
EXTREME WEATHER, WILDFIRES AND
SEA LEVEL RISE. WE FACE BOTH THE
CLIMATE CRISIS AND THE HOUSING
CRISIS. MAYBE 14 45 SEEKS TO
BETTER PLAN FOR THE CLIMATE
CRISIS WHEN DESIGNATING REGIONAL
HOUSING NEEDS. REQUIRE
CONSIDERATION AND THINGS LIKE
WILDFIRE RISK, SEA LEVEL RISE
AND OTHER CLIMATE IMPACT.
CLIMATE CHANGE IMPACTS. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN I VOTE.
THANK YOU ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION
DEBATE ON THIS MEASURE ANY
FURTHER DISCUSSIONS, SENATOR?
COPY OUR Ó. QUESTION OF THE
AUTHOR. OKAY WILL YOU FOR JOCKEY
QUESTION? SO, UM TELL ME HOW.
THIS IS NOT GOING TO IMPEDE THE
DEVELOPMENT OF AFFORDABLE
HOUSING. BYE BYE. I MEAN, YOU
ALREADY HAVE TO CONSIDER THE
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS. UH UM
THAT IN YOUR IN YOUR COMMUNITY,
BUT BY LOOKING AT SEA LEVEL RISE
AND BY LOOKING AT WILDFIRE
DANGER, AND ALL OF THOSE ARE
REALLY IMPORTANT. BUT HOW DOES
THIS NOT THEN SHOVE THE
AFFORDABLE HOUSING INTO
COMMUNITIES? UM THAT ALSO MAY
HAVE SOME CLIMATE CHANGE IMPACTS
BUT ARE NOT AS SIGNIFICANT AND
AS CLEAR AND AS UM, THE SIGNAL
MORE SEVERE AS WILDFIRE AND. AND
SO A COUPLE OF THINGS THE BILL
DOES NOT IN ANY WAY REDUCE WHAT
A COUNTY OR A CITY'S ARENA, UM,
WOULD BE SO THAT IS STILL
ALLOCATED IN THE SAME WAY. UM
THE BILL DOES REQUIRE
CONSIDERATION AND I'VE BEEN VERY
CLEAR THAT I THINK WE SHOULD
TAKE STEPS. TO REDUCE THE IMPACT
OF DEVELOPMENT, NEW HOUSING IN
THE HIGHEST RISK AREAS, AND WE
SHOULD HAVE MORE DENSITIES IN
OTHER AREAS, INCLUDING MY OWN
CITY, AND SO THIS BILL, I THINK
IS CONSISTENT WITH THAT. WE DID
A LOT OF WORK ON IT IN THE
HOUSING COMMITTEE BECAUSE I
WOULD NOT PUT A BILL OUT OF THE
HOUSING COMMITTEE THAT I THOUGHT
WOULD ACTUALLY UNDERMINE THE
PRODUCTION OF HOUSING. BUT IT
DOES. YOU SHOULD TAKE INTO
ACCOUNT THAT, UM THESE YEARS,
WHICH I THINK MAKES A LOT OF
SENSE. IT'S NOT ABOUT REDUCING
THE OVERALL NUMBER WITH ANY
WITHIN ANY GIVEN JURISDICTION.
BUT JUST TAKING THAT FACTOR INTO
ACCOUNT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

ASSEMBLY BILL 21 OH, SIX BY
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S ROB ROBERT
RIVAS AND ACT FOR LEADING TO
WATER QUALITY. SOONER. HERTZBERG
THANK YOU VERY MUCH. MR
PRESIDENT IS WE DEAL WITH THE
DROUGHT AND ALL OF THE
CHALLENGES THAT WE HAVE TO FACE
WITH CLIMATE CHANGE AND WATER
AND TRANSFERRING WATER FROM THE
NORTH AND THE SOUTH. ONE OF
THOSE ITEMS THAT IS IMPORTANT AS
STORMWATER, MISS. THANK YOU, MR
CHAIRMAN. STORM WATER IS THAT
WATER THAT RUNS OFF ROOFS,
ROADWAYS AND OTHER PAVED
SURFACES WHEN IT RAINS AND THEN
ACCUMULATES A TOXIC MIX OF OIL,
HEAVY METALS TRASH BEFORE ENDING
UP IN THE NEAREST, UM, WATERWAY
AS A STATE, WE'RE NOT ACHIEVING
OUR WATER QUALITY GOALS MEMBERS
AND WE'RE NOT CURRENTLY ON TRACK
TO DO SO, ESPECIALLY IN OUR MOST
UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES. THIS
BILL DOES THREE THINGS. NOT ONE,
NOT TWO, BUT THREE THINGS FIRST.
YET UM, REQUIRES THE STATE WATER
RESOURCES CONTROL BOARD TO
CONDUCT A STAKEHOLDER PROCESS TO
LOOK AT HOW THE STATE'S
STORMWATER PROGRAMS CAN ACHIEVE
BETTER RESULTS. SMART APPROACH
SECOND, IT REQUIRES THE WATER
RESOURCES CONTROL BOARD TO
CREATE A NEW PERMIT TO COVER
CURRENTLY UNREGULATED SOURCES OF
STORMWATER POLLUTION, WHICH WILL
ENSURE THE BURDEN OF COMPLIANCE
AND MORE FAIRLY DISTRIBUTED
MANNER. THIRDLY IT WILL
MODERNIZE A STORMWATER DATA
SYSTEM. SO THAT WORKS BETTER FOR
BOTH THE REGULATORS AND THE
PERMIT. EASE ASKED FOR I VOTE.
ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION OR DEBATE
ON THIS ITEM SENATOR DOT
QUESTION TO THE FLOOR JOCKEY
POLICE HERZBERG, WILL YOU TAKE A
QUESTION? ABSOLUTELY. SO I GUESS
MY BIGGEST FEAR ABOUT THIS BILL
IS THAT ALL OF A SUDDEN EVERY
COMMERCIAL PROPERTY IN EVERY
SINGLE COUNTY IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA IS GOING TO HAVE TO
HAVE A STORMWATER PERMIT. AND I
DON'T. I DON'T KNOW. I'M VERY
CONCERNED ABOUT THE EXPENSE OF
THAT AND WHAT CAN HAPPEN FROM
THAT. SO THE FIRST THE SECOND
PART OF THAT YOU WOULD SAID THAT
WE ARE DOING WITH THAT. BILL
SOUNDED GOOD TO ME. BUT I GUESS
MY QUESTION IS WHAT PREVENTS
THIS FROM TURNING INTO SOMETHING
THAT THAT HAS HAPPENED? LIKE
WITH VINEYARDS ALL THROUGHOUT,
YOU KNOW, THE NORTH COAST AND
YOU KNOW FOR A RUNOFF, WHERE YOU
KNOW, IT WAS KIND OF BUREAUCRACY
RUN AMOK. IN MY VIEW, AND THERE
WAS JUST NO OPPORTUNITY TO DO
ANYTHING. WHAT'S YOUR WHAT'S YOU
KNOW WHAT'S THE BILL WAS PASSED?
SO CAN YOU HELP ME WITH THAT?
YEAH. A COUPLE OF THINGS. FIRST
AND FOREMOST. WON'T BE MY ISSUE
BECAUSE I'M NOT GOING TO BE
HERE. BUT FUTURE LEGISLATORS CAN
DEAL WITH THIS. BUT WHAT IT DOES
IS, LOOK, WE HAVE THIS PROBLEM
IN IN LOS ANGELES WHERE I COME
FROM. WE'VE GOT A HOST. WE'VE
GOT A REALLY SIGNIFICANT
CHALLENGE OF POLLUTION FROM AND
REQUIRING NPD ES PERMITS AND
THERE ALREADY IS A LARGE
STRUCTURE IN PLACE DEALING WITH
RUNOFF, STORM WATER, STORM WATER
OR WATER THAT COMES FROM OUR
VARIOUS BUSINESSES AND THE LIKE.
AND SO THAT INFRASTRUCTURE IS
ALREADY KIND OF ALREADY IN
PLACE. AND SO I DO THINK YOU'RE
PROBABLY RIGHT IN THE SENSE THAT
IT'S THE PROVERBIAL NOSE UNDER
THE UNDER THE TENT, SO TO SPEAK
IN TERMS OF THIS ISSUE. AND ALL
I WOULD SUGGEST TO YOU IS LET'S
GATHER THE INFORMATION. LET'S
MAKE A DETERMINATION. LET'S HAVE
A STUDY GROUP OF PROCESSES
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS TO LOOK AT
THIS AND MAYBE THE SOLUTION IS
IT'S NOT AS BAD AS WE THINK.
MAYBE THERE'S OTHER ALTERNATIVES
THAT CREATIVE LEGISLATORS MIGHT
BE ABLE TO DO IN THE NEXT
LEGISLATIVE SESSION. SENATOR
DODD, YOU KNOW TO DEAL WITH
THESE KINDS OF ISSUES. I DON'T
KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT
QUESTION. I DO KNOW THAT, UM
WE'VEGOT A NUMBER OF CHALLENGES
THAT WE'RE FACING IN THIS
COMPLEX SOCIETY WITH LESS WATER
WITH CLIMATE CHANGE WITH RUN OFF
WITH ALL THE KINDS OF POLLUTION
LIKE WE HAVE A SERIES OF FEDERAL
AND STATE REGULATIONS AND LAWS
ACCORDINGLY, AND, UM. BUT
THERE'S NOTHING SEEMS TO ME TO
GATHER THE DATA TO IMPROVE THE
DATA SYSTEM, BOTH FOR PERMIT
EASE AND FOR THE SYSTEM AND THEN
DECISIONS WILL BE MADE
APPROPRIATELY. BUT YOU, YOU
MIGHT BE RIGHT. I'M NOT
SUGGESTING THAT THAT MIGHT NOT
HAPPEN. ALL I WOULD SUGGEST IS
THAT IT'S NOT WRONG TO ASK THE
QUESTION, THANKS TO THE CENTER
FROM LOS ANGELES. MY OWN TIME. I
GUESS I JUST WORRY THAT, UM THIS
IS THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE. I
WISH WE'D HAD THE STUDY FIRST
AND NOT JUST AND THEN HAVE SOME
LEGISLATIVE OVERSIGHT AND FIND
OUT WHAT THE STUDY FINDS FIRST
BEFORE WE ALLOW AGAIN, ANOTHER
STATE AGENCY TO. TO PASS
REGULATION WITHOUT LEGISLATIVE
OVERSIGHT. THANK YOU. ANY
FURTHER DISCUSSION DEBATE ON
THIS ITEM, SENATOR GLASER. THANK
YOU. THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT.
QUESTION FOR THE FLOOR. JOCKEY.
PLEASE. ABSOLUTELY. RIGHT AHEAD.
UM COULD COULD YOU SPEAK TO THE
ISSUE OF WHETHER OR NOT THERE'S
A PRIVATE RIGHT OF ACTION WHERE
THEY'RE FOUND TO BE VIOLATIONS?
COULD YOU SPEAK TO THAT, PLEASE?
YEAH NO WAY. I MEAN PRIVATE
RIGHTS OF ACTIONS HAVE TO BE
AUTHORIZED IN THE LAW FOR THEM
TO BE THE CASE, WHETHER IT'S IN
COMMON LAW OR OTHERWISE, IN
TERMS OF PRIVATE RIGHT OF
ACTION. ALL I WOULD SAY IS THAT
UH HUH. I'M SORRY. ALL I WOULD
SAY IS THAT THERE HAS ALREADY
BEEN LITIGATION IN LOS ANGELES
COUNTY, AS WAS INDICATED IN THE
ANALYSIS OF FEDERAL COURT IN LOS
ANGELES REGION HAS ALREADY
ORDERED THESE, UH ENTITIES THAT
HAVE GREASE AND STUFF COMING OFF
OF PARKING LOTS AND LEAVING
MUNICIPALITIES UNFAIRLY
RESPONSIBLE FOR ADDRESSING
POLLUTION. THEY DIDN'T CAUSE
THAT'S WHY IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY
PAST I THINK IT WAS PROP W OR
SOMETHING TO BE ABLE TO FIGURE
OUT THE COST TO PAY FOR THAT. SO
TO CLARIFY IF I MAY. THERE'S NO
PRIVATE RIGHT OF ACTION UNDER
THIS LEGISLATION. NO, NO, THANK
YOU VERY MUCH. NO. I WOULDN'T BE
SUPPORTING IT. OKAY ANY FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE? HEARING
CNN SENATOR HERZBERG WOULD YOU
LIKE TO CLOSE? YEAH THANK THANK
YOU VERY MUCH. I DO APPRECIATE
THE CONCERN AND I CERTAINLY
UNDERSTAND IT. ALL I WOULD SAY
IS THAT WE ALREADY HAVE WHAT'S
CALLED THE NPD S PERMIT, WHICH I
TALKED ABOUT THE NATIONAL SYSTEM
THAT REGULATES DISCHARGED FROM
THREE POTENTIAL SOURCES.
MUNICIPAL STORMWATER SYSTEMS,
CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES,
INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITIES, AND ALSO
WE HAVE A GENERAL INDUSTRIAL
GENERAL PERMIT CALLED THE IGP.
THAT REGULATES INDUSTRIAL
STORMWATER FROM FACILITIES,
THIS, THE MODERNIZED COLLECTION
DATA WOULD INCLUDE DATA FROM ALL
THREE SOURCES THAT WE HAD A
BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF WHERE
THE STUFF WAS COMING FROM AND
HOW TO DEAL WITH IT. AS FOR AND

ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S AKILA WEBER AND
ACT RELATING TO REPRODUCTIVE
HEALTH AND MAKING AN
APPROPRIATION. THEREFORE
CABALLERO THANK YOU, MR
PRESIDENT. I RISE ON BEHALF OF
SEVEN ASSEMBLYWOMAN WEBER TO
PRESENT A B 21 34 A BILL TO
ENSURE ABORTION AND
CONTRACEPTION, CONTRACEPTION,
SERVICES OR AFFORDABLE AND
ACCESSIBLE TO ALL PATIENTS.
CALIFORNIA HAS LONG BEEN A
LEADER IN PROTECTING AN
INDIVIDUAL'S RIGHT TO ACCESS
ABORTION. AND WHILE THESE
EFFORTS HAVE HELPED TO MAINTAIN
THIS RIGHT FOR DECADES, THERE
ARE STILL NUMEROUS BARRIERS TO
ACCESSING CARE, INCLUDING THE
COST TO ADDRESS THESE BARRIERS.
REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH PROVIDERS IN
CALIFORNIA OFFER UNCOMPENSATED
CARE TO PATIENTS WHO ARE UNABLE
TO AFFORD THE COST OF SERVICES.
THIS INCLUDES THOSE WHO ARE
UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED DUE TO
GAPS IN THEIR PERSONAL COVERAGE
DUE TO RELIGIOUS EXEMPTIONS OR
SELF INSURED EMPLOYER. UH
INSURANCE REGULATED BY FAIR
FEDERAL LAW. A B 21 34
ESTABLISHES THE CALIFORNIA
REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH EQUITY
PROGRAM WITHIN THE DEPARTMENT OF
HEALTH CARE, ACCESS AND
INFORMATION TO PROVIDE GRANT
FUNDING TO CALIFORNIA'S SAFETY.
NET PROVIDERS OF ABORTION AND
CONTRACEPTIVE SERVICES. MEDICAL
PROVIDERS WOULD BE AUTHORIZED TO
APPLY FOR A GRANT AND A
CONTINUATION AWARD AFTER THE
INITIAL GRANT. IF THEY AGREE TO
PROVIDE ABORTION AND
CONTRACEPTION CONTRACEPTIVE
SERVICES FOLLOWING CERTAIN
CONDITIONS. CALIFORNIA HAS LONG
RISEN TO THE OCCASION AND OFTEN
LEAD THE WAY IN THE FIGHT FOR
HEALTH EQUITY. IT SHOULD BE NO
DIFFERENT WHEN IT COMES TO
ABORTION AND THE SAFETY NET
PROVIDERS WHO PERFORM THESE
SERVICES. I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR
YOUR I VOTE. ANY FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE ON THIS
ITEM. SENATOR MELINDA'S THANK
YOU, MR PRESIDENT. THE PRO TEM
SAID I WAS BEING
UNCHARACTERISTICALLY QUIET NEED
TO REMEDY THAT, UH, BE CAREFUL
WHAT YOU ASK FOR. UM SO I HAVE A
QUESTION OF THE FLOOR MANAGER IF
I MAY. WILL YOU TAKE A QUESTION
RIGHT AHEAD. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
SO THIS BILL SEEKS TO PROVIDE
FUNDING FOR NOT JUST CALIFORNIA
PATIENTS, BUT FOR ANY PATIENT
THAT SEEKS THE SERVICES IN
CALIFORNIA. IS THAT CORRECT?
THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS BILL IS
ABOUT. NO, SO IT'S ONLY FOR
CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS. I DON'T
KNOW THAT THERE IS A RESTRICTION
, BUT THIS IS I DON'T THINK IT'S
UM IT WAS AN OTHER BILL THAT WAS
MORE EXPANSIVE THAN THIS BILL.
SO DOES THIS BILL ALSO ALLOW
THIS FUNDING? UM TO BE ACCESSED
BY THOSE WHO DO NOT LIVE OR WHO
ARE NOT CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS.
WELL IT IT WILL COVER
INDIVIDUALS. THAT RECEIVED
FEDERAL FUNDING THAT PARTIALLY
COVERS IT, SO THAT COULD BE
ANYBODY I WOULD ASSUME. OKAY YES
. OKAY SO I JUST WANTED TO MAKE
SURE I WAS CLEAR BECAUSE THERE
HAVE BEEN SO MANY OF THESE TYPES
OF BILLS SO THIS WOULD PROVIDE
THIS TYPE OF FUNDING FOR ANYONE
, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY'RE
CALIFORNIA. RESIDENTS ARE NOT
WITH THAT I WOULD URGE A NO

BILL 22 OH, ONE BY
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S BENNETT AN ACT
RELATING TO GROUNDWATER. SENATOR
LEVERETT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH,
MR. PRESIDENT. UM IN 2014, THE
LEGISLATURE PASSED THE
SUSTAINABLE GROUNDWATER
MANAGEMENT ACT THAT WE ALL KNOW
AS SIGMA. IT ESTABLISHED A
STATEWIDE FRAMEWORK TO HELP
PROTECT GROUNDWATER RESOURCES
AND TO HAVE GROUNDWATER
EXTRACTION REACH SUSTAINABILITY
OVER THE NEXT 20 YEARS. HOWEVER
FOLLOWING THE PASSAGE OF SIGMA,
THE STATES ARE RUN ON NEW, WELL
DRILLING AND A RECORD NUMBER OF
DRINKING WELLS WENT DRY. MEANING
PEOPLE HAVE BEEN WITHOUT RUNNING
WATER IN THEIR HOMES. IN 2021
ALONE, 969 HOUSEHOLD WELLS WENT
DRY, A TENFOLD INCREASE FROM THE
YEAR. PRIOR. AH A B 22. OH, ONE
WILL HELP MANAGE WATER
SUSTAINABLY BY REQUIRING THAT
GROUNDWATER SUSTAINABILITY
AGENCIES GIVE THEIR SIGN OFF ON
THE LAND USE PERMIT PRIOR TO
DWELLING DRILLING. SPECIFICALLY
GROUNDWATER SUSTAINABLE AGENCY
WOULD NEED TO DETERMINE THAT A
NEW OR ALTERED WELL WILL NOT
IMPACT THE SUSTAINABILITY OF THE
BASIN. ADDITIONALLY A WELL TO
WELL ANALYSIS MUST BE SUBMITTED
BY THE PERMIT E ALONG WITH THEIR
APPLICATION. THEREFORE NEW. WELL
PERMITS REMAIN MINISTERIAL AND
NATURE AND LOCAL CONTROL IS
PRESERVED THROUGH COMMUNICATION
WITH THE COUNTIES AND THE GST,
EH? THIS RESPONSE TO A PROBLEM
THAT IS REALLY SEVERE AND SOME
PARTS OF OUR STATE. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR VOTE.
ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION OR DEBATE
ON THIS ITEM, SENATOR NELSON
PURPOSE OF AMENDMENT. AMENDMENTS
ARE AT THE DESK. THE AMENDMENTS
ARE TO DEATH SECRETARY PLEASE
READ THE AMENDMENTS. AMENDMENTS
BY SENATOR NIELSEN SET ONE. MR
PRESIDENT. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN
, THE SENATE THIS IS AN
ESSENTIAL TYPE OF AMENDMENT. IF
WE'RE GOING TO GET INTO THE
FUTURE OF WATER AND CALIFORNIA
WE HEAR A LOT OF MOANING AND
GROANING. IN THE DISASTERS. THAT
ARE FORTHCOMING. AND WE TALKED
ABOUT THE DEPLETION OF OUR
GROUNDWATER. WELL, GUESS WHAT?
OUR SURFACE WATER IS DEPLETED,
TOO. IN FACT, FOR OVER 50 YEARS,
THE STATE HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING
MAJOR. AT ALL. ABOUT SURFACE
STORAGE. IN FACT, THE CONTRARY
THIS LEGISLATURE HAS OPPOSED
ATTEMPTS MADE BY MYSELF AND
OTHERS. INCLUDING TO ADDRESS
SOME OF THESE CONCERNS. TO
REPAIR OUR CONVEYANCE SYSTEM.
WHICH AFFECTS YOU IF YOU'RE IN
THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AREA.
THE WATER DOES NOT COME FROM
THERE. IT COMES FROM OTHER PARTS
OF THE STATE AND HAS TO BE
CONVEYED. THAT'S WHAT THE
CENTRAL VALLEY PROJECT WAS
ABOUT, AND THE STATE WATER
PROJECT. HAVE BEEN ABOUT. AND IN
TERMS OF THE DEPLETION OF OUR
GROUNDWATER. ALL WE SOLVED THE
PROBLEM WITH THE SUSTAINABLE
GROUNDWATER MANAGEMENT
LEGISLATION. WELL, I WOULD
SUBMIT THAT PASSED QUITE A FEW
YEARS AGO. OH MY. WE STILL HAVE
A CRISIS. WE STILL HAVE A
PROBLEM. GEE HOW DID IT GET
FIXED? WE ALREADY HAD IN PLACE
AND WE'RE DOING GROUNDWATER
REPLENISHMENT. BUT WE NEED TO
FOCUS SOMEWHAT ON REPLENISHMENT
AND ON SUPPLY. LAST YEAR. MARK
FELLOW SANGER SENATOR AND I
CONSIDER MYSELF A. SANGER,
SENATOR T AUTHORED
LEGISLATION. THAT WOULD HAVE
HELPED. MOVE OFF THE DIME. A
LARGE SURFACE STORAGE FACILITY
INCLUDES A COUNTY CALLED SITES

BEEN TURNED. TO INCREASE THAT
STORAGE. AND THE PROJECTS. ALL
OVER CALIFORNIA, PARTICULARLY IN
THE CENTRAL VALLEY. THE
CONVEYANCE SYSTEMS THAT NEEDED
REPAIRS. HARDLY ANYTHING IF
ANYTHING, HAS BEEN DONE. SO THIS
IS AN APPROPRIATE AMENDMENT. TO

233 SENATOR CORTEZ AGAIN. HE'S
PREPARED, SECRETARY. PLEASE
READ. ASSEMBLY BILL 17 17 BY
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S AGUIAR-CURRY
AND ACT RELATING TO PUBLIC WORKS
. ORTEZ E TWO FLOOR IS YOURS.
THANK YOU AGAIN, MR PRESIDENT
AND MEMBERS I RISE TO PRESENT A
B 17 17. ON BEHALF OF
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S AGUILAR CURRY.
THIS BILL EXPANDS THE DEFINITION
OF PUBLIC WORKS TOO CUTE TO
INCLUDE FUEL REDUCTION
ACTIVITIES PERFORMED AS PART OF
A WILDFIRE MITIGATION PROJECT.
THIS WILL BETTER PROTECT
COMMUNITIES FROM THE INCREASING
THREAT OF WILDFIRES, ENSURING
THAT WORKERS RESPONSIBLE FOR
THESE PROJECTS ARE WELL TRAINED
, USE THE SAFEST PRACTICES AND
ARE PAID PREVAILING WAGE.
AMENDMENTS TAKEN IN THE SENATE
I'D LIKE TO TOUCH UPON BECAUSE
THEY MEET OPPOSITION CONCERNS BY
DELAYING IMPLEMENTATION BY ONE
YEAR FOR ALL PROJECTS DELAYED
IMPLEMENTATION FOR TWO YEARS ON
PROJECTS CONDUCTED BY NONPROFIT
ORGANIZATIONS SPECIFYING THAT
PROVISION IN THIS BILL ONLY
APPLY TO APPRENTICE APPLE CRAFTS
EXEMPTING WORK DONE ON TRIBAL
LAND. AND EXEMPTING PROJECTS
LESS THAN $100,000. THIS BILL
MAKES CLEAR THAT LOCAL WORKERS
PERFORMING HAZARDOUS LABOR
INTENSIVE WORK DESERVED TO BE
PROPERLY PREPARED. AND PAID FOR
THEIR JOBS. I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR YOUR VOTE. THANK YOU ANY
FURTHER DISCUSSION OR DEBATE ON
THIS ITEM, SENATOR DALLAS THANK
YOU, MR PRESIDENT MEMBERS. I
RISE IN OPPOSITION TO THIS BILL.
I JUST WANT TO GIVE YOU SOME
HISTORY. LAST YEAR. THE SENATOR
FROM THE NORTH COAST AND I PUT
FORTH LEGISLATION TO INCREASE
THE AMOUNT OF FUNDING TO DO
PROJECTS. AND FIRE SAVING OUR
COMMUNITIES. THERE WAS ABOUT
60,000 ACRES THAT WAS TREATED
LAST YEAR. THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH
CONTRACTORS IN THIS SPACE IN
CALIFORNIA TO DO THE WORK. IT'S
ONE OF THE REASONS WHY WE CAN'T
GET OUR COMMUNITIES FIRE STATE
THIS BILL. WELL A LOT WILL WILL
FORCE THOSE CONTRACTORS WHO ARE
ALREADY, UH, FORESTRY PEOPLE WHO
ARE WORKING ON REMOVING DEAD AND
BURNT TREES OUT OF THESE MASSIVE
FIRES THAT WE HAVE AND WILL
REQUIRE THEM TO GO UNION. THEY
WILL NOT GO UNION. THERE'S NOT
ENOUGH OF THEM. THIS BILL WILL
REQUIRE THEM TO GO UNION AND WE
WILL NOT GET WHERE WE WANT TO
GO. THIS BILL IS ACTUALLY GOING
TO REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF LAND
THAT GETS TREATED AROUND OUR
COMMUNITIES, SO I RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR A NO VOTE ON THIS BILL.
SENATOR NELSON. MR PRESIDENT,
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE SENATE
SHORT SIGHTEDNESS. IS RAMPANT
HERE. WE HAVE THE FIRE PROBLEMS.
WE DO NOT HAVE THE RESOURCES. TO
FIGHT AND TO DO MORE
IMPORTANTLY, THE PREVENTION.
THAT IS NEEDED. THE MANAGEMENT
OF THE FORCE AND THE WILDLANDS
THAT FOR DECADES THIS STATE DID
VERY LITTLE, IF ANYTHING ABOUT
AND THEN, FINALLY, JUST A FEW
YEARS AGO, WE WERE ABLE TO
ACCOMPLISH A SMALL AMOUNT OF
MONEY. IN THE BUDGET. WELL,
GUESS WHAT HAPPENED IN THAT
FIRST YEAR? THE DEPARTMENT DID
NOT SPEND THE MONEY. WE HAVE
CONTINUED. TO HAVE FIRES. WE
CONTINUE TO NOT MAKE THAT A
PRIORITY. WE CONTINUE TO WORRY
WORRY ABOUT OTHER MATTERS. NOT
THE CATACLYSMIC FIRES. NOW THE
REASON WE'VE GAINED A LITTLE
MORE SYMPATHY FOR FOREST AND
WILD LAND MANAGEMENT. IS
INHABITED CITIES. NOW EXPERIENCE
WHAT RURAL AREAS LONG HAVE HAD
TO ENDURE. FIRES HAVE MARCHED
INTO THOSE CITIES. AND WE'RE
STILL HAVING A FIGHT. ABOUT
HOLDING ONTO THE RESOURCES AND
THE HUMAN RESOURCES. THIS IS
SOMETHING THAT'S PROBABLY LITTLE
ATTENTION PAID TUBES, CERTAINLY
ALMOST NONE DURING THE SO CALLED
REALIGNMENT. BUT. NOT JUST LOW
LEVEL INMATES, BUT DANGEROUS
INMATES HAVE BEEN RELEASED AND
OUR COMMUNITIES OUR COMMUNITIES
ARE PAYING THE PRICE. ANOTHER
IMPACT OF THAT, THOUGH, IS WE DO
NOT HAVE INMATE FIRE CREWS
AVAILABLE TO US. SO I'VE WORKED
TO TRY TO GET THE CALIFORNIA
CONSERVATION CORPS EMPLOYED AND
THAT IS HAPPENING TO A DEGREE.
BUT IT WILL NEVER EVEN COME
CLOSE. SUFFICIENT. SO THE POINT
IS HERE. KEEP IN MIND. THE FIRE
HAZARD. THAT WE ARE STILL
FACING. AND THE NEED TO EMPLOY
RESOURCES. TO CLEAN UP THE
FOREST. AND THE WILDLANDS.
THERE'S ANOTHER IMPACT TO THESE
FIRES. THERE ISN'T TALKED ABOUT
THE IMPACT ON WILDLIFE. I TOOK
SOME OF US UP TO PARADISE. JUST
A FEW YEARS BACK. THE TOUR THAT
CATACLYSMIC. DISASTER. AS A
BULLET BASTARDS COMING THROUGH.
THE WOODS. I ASKED THE DRIVER TO
STOP WHY A LARGE BORE. WAS DEAD.
LAYING NEXT TO THE ROAD. HE'D
BEEN BARBECUED. NOT ON THE SPIT.
BUT BY THE FIRE. AND I HAVE
ASKED THOSE WHO DON'T WANT US TO
TOUCH THE FOREST AND THE
WILDLANDS. HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A
SQUIRREL EXPLODE? WHAT DO YOU
MEAN? WELL, I HAVE WHEN THE FIRE
HITS THE SQUIRRELS EXPLODE. AND
THEIR HABITAT. FOR THE WILDLIFE.
IS IN SOME CASES PERMANENTLY
DESTROYED AND DAMAGED. BUT
NOBODY WANTS TO TALK. ABOUT THE
NEED TO EMPLOY OUR RESOURCES.
THE FORCE AND WILD LAND
MANAGEMENT. THANK YOU ANY
FURTHER DISCUSSION OR DEBATE ON
THIS ITEM? ANY FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE HERE IN
CHINA AND SENATOR CORTEZ, WOULD
YOU LIKE TO CLOSE? THANK YOU, MR
PRESIDENT. I JUST WANT TO
CLARIFY, UM, IN MY CLOTHES THAT
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT STATE AND
FEDERAL GRANT FUNDS THAT ARE
PUSHED DOWN THAT ALREADY ACCOUNT
FOR PREVAILING WAGE AND THIS
BILL WOULD JUST ENSURE THAT THE
PREVAILING WAGE GETS LITERALLY
PUSHED DOWN REGARDLESS OF WHO
THE CONTRACTING ENTITY IS SO
THAT PEOPLE GET PAID.
APPROPRIATELY WITH THE GRANT
ALREADY ACCOUNT ACCOUNTS FOR SO
WITH THAT, I'D RESPECTFULLY ASK

THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT.
COLLEAGUES ARRIVES TO PRESENT A
B 21 88 ON BEHALF OF US SOME
REMEMBER WORK VERY LONG OVERDUE
BILL, EVEN THOUGH CALIFORNIA HAS
LEGALIZED BOTH MEDICINAL AND
RECREATIONAL CANNABIS USE,
EMPLOYEES CAN STILL BE
DISCRIMINATED AGAINST IN THE
WORKFORCE. THEY CAN BE FIRED FOR
THEIR CONSUMPTION OF THIS LEGAL
SUBSTANCE. DURING OFF DUTY, SO
THEY'RE NOT WORKING, THEY
CONSUME ILLEGAL SUBSTANCE. AH
AND THEY'RE NOT INTOXICATED AT
WORK, AND YET THEY CAN BE. FIRED
WE CAN ALL AGREE THAT NO ONE
SHOULD EVER SHOW UP TO WORK HIGH
OR IMPAIRED. BUT WHEN MOST
EMPLOYERS CONDUCT A DRUG TEST,
THEY TYPICALLY SCREEN UM FOR THE
PRESENCE OF NON PSYCHOACTIVE
CANNABIS METABOLITES. THIS TEST
CAN BE POSITIVE IF YOU CONSUME
CANNABIS ANY TIME IN THE LAST
MONTH. AND THE SCIENCE IS VERY
CLEAR AND IMPORTANT ON THIS
SUBJECT. THC IS THE COMPOUND IN
CANNABIS THAT CAN INDUCE
PSYCHOACTIVE EFFECTS.
METABOLITES ARE WHAT REMAIN
PRESIDENT AND AN INDIVIDUAL'S
BODILY FLUID FOR WEEKS AFTER
CANNABIS USE AND AFTER THE THC
HAS BEEN METABOLIZED, THESE
PEOPLE ARE NOT INTOXICATED AND
YET BECAUSE IT WILL SHOW UP ON A
TEST, THEY CAN BE FIRED. SO
POSITIVE METABOLITE TEST HAS
ZERO CORRELATION TO WORKPLACE
SAFETY OR PRODUCTIVITY. TESTING
FOR METABOLITES AND PENALIZING
EMPLOYEES FOR ENGAGING IN
ILLEGAL ACTIVITY ON THEIR OWN
TIME IS OBSOLETE AND SHOULD NOT
BE HAPPENING IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA. MAYBE 21 88
ADDRESSES THIS OBSOLETE AND
INAPPROPRIATE PRACTICE BY MAKING
IT UNLAWFUL FOR AN EMPLOYER TO
DISCRIMINATE AGAINST A PERSON IF
THEY'VE CONSUMED CANNABIS OFF
THE JOB. OR IF THEY HAVE NON
PSYCHOACTIVE CANNABIS
METABOLITES IN THEIR URINE, HAIR
OR BODILY FLUIDS. THE AUTHOR HAS
WORKED CLOSELY WITH BUSINESS AND
LABOR GROUPS IN THIS BILL. IT'S
CLEAR THAT EMPLOYERS CAN
CONTINUE TO CONDUCT PRE
EMPLOYMENT TESTING FOR THC. AND
THAT THEY CAN CONTINUE TO
MAINTAIN A DRUG FREE WORKPLACE.
NO ONE CAN COME TO WORK HIGH
UNDER A B 21 88. THE SOLUTION
FOUND IN THIS BILL IS THE RESULT
OF SEVERAL YEARS OF CAREFUL
NEGOTIATION. RESPECTFULLY ASKED
FOR AN EYE BOAT. ANY DISCUSSION
OR DEBATE ON THE SIDE OF SENATOR
DALLAS. THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT
MEMBERS. I RISE AS SOMEBODY
WHO'S KIND OF IN A CATCH 22 WITH
THIS BILL. I HAVE A COMMERCIAL
LICENSE. I'M REQUIRED MY
EMPLOYEES THAT HAVE COMMERCIAL
LICENSE ARE REQUIRED TO DO DRUG
SCREENING. UNFORTUNATELY, THE
TECHNOLOGY IS REALLY NOT
AVAILABLE TO TELL WHEN YOU ARE
IMPAIRED OR NOT IMPAIRED THROUGH
A DRUG SCREEN. SO UH, YOU'RE
REQUIRED TO GO DO YOUR TEST.
WHEN YOU DO THE TEST. IT COMES
UP. AT THAT POINT THE EMPLOYERS
IN A IN A BOX BECAUSE WE HAVE TO
COMPLY WITH A DRUG SCREEN OR A
DRUG FREE WORK ENVIRONMENT,
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU'RE OPERATING
IN £80,000 G. VW VEHICLE DOWN
THE HIGHWAY. THE POINT I'M
TRYING TO MAKE IS THAT HOW DO WE
DETERMINE WHETHER THE PERSON IS
HIGH OR NOT HIGH BECAUSE THERE
IS NO SCIENTIFIC DATA TO
DETERMINE THAT FOR THE EMPLOYER
WHO WAS TRYING TO KEEP THESE
EMPLOYERS HIRED, AND THAT'S ONE
OF THE REASONS WE HAVE A HUGE
SHORTAGE FOR FOLKS IN THE
COMMERCIAL DRIVER'S LICENSE AREA
BECAUSE THEY USED, UH. EITHER
MEDICAL OR OR RECREATIONAL
MARIJUANA OFF THE JOB, BUT
THERE'S NO WAY TO DETERMINE
WHETHER THEY WERE HIGH OR NOT,
WHILE THEY WERE ON THE JOB. SO
FOR THOSE REASONS AS AN EMPLOYER
, I CAN'T SUPPORT THIS BILL.
THERE'S GOTTA BE SOME WAY. UH TO
DO DETERMINE WHETHER THEY ARE OR
NOT, AND THAT PUTS AN EMPLOYER
IN A REALLY BAD POSITION.
BECAUSE YOU'RE SAYING WE'RE
DISCRIMINATING WHEN WE'RE NOT
TRYING TO. THEY'RE JUST NOT THE
TECHNOLOGY AVAILABLE TO GET
WHERE WE WANT TO GO. THANK YOU
ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION OR DEBATE
ON THIS ITEM ANY FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE? HEARING C
NONE SENATOR WENT. I'M SORRY,
SENATOR OFF. WELL THANK YOU.
THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT. I
ASSUME THE AUTHOR MAY OR THE
FLOOR MANAGER MAY COVER THIS.
BUT THE ANALYSIS POINTS OUT THAT
THIS BILL DOES NOT SUPERSEDE
STATE OR FEDERAL LAWS. REQUIRING
APPLICANTS OR EMPLOYEES TO BE
TESTED FOR CONTROLLED
SUBSTANCES. SPECIFICALLY DEALING
WITH THE QUESTION IN THE COMMENT
THAT WAS LAST MADE. THANK YOU.
WE NEED FURTHER DISCUSSION
DEBATE QUESTION. EVERY NINE.
SENATOR WIENER. WOULD YOU LIKE
TO CLOSE? THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
MR PRESIDENT. I WANT TO MAKE
CLEAR THE BILL DOES NOT IN ANY
WAY PREVENT TESTING FOR THC. YOU
CAN TEST FOR THAT. THAT IS WHAT
IS INDICATIVE OF IMPAIRMENT. AND
THIS BILL DOES NOT IN ANY WAY
PRECLUDE THAT. I DON'T WANT TO
PRETEND THAT THAT FEDERAL AND
STATE LAWS THAT CAN CREATE
SOMETIMES CHALLENGES FOR
EMPLOYERS. BUT HERE IT'S VERY
CLEAR THEY CAN STILL CONTINUE TO
TEST FOR THC AND USING CANNABIS
AT HOME THREE WEEKS AGO, UM AND
HAVING METABOLITES LEFTOVER THAT
DOES NOT UNDERMINE A DRUG FREE
WORKPLACE. I RESPECTFULLY ASK

STATEWIDE RECYCLING SYSTEM. THE

SENATOR ALLEN, WHO IS READY,
SECRETARY. PLEASE READ. ASSEMBLY
BILL 12 78 BY ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S
NAZARIAN AN ACT RELATING TO
HEALING ARTS CENTER ELLEN.
MEMBERS THIS BILL WOULD REQUIRE
DOCTORS HE RECEIVED PAYMENTS.
FROM A DRUG OR DEVICE COMPANY TO
DISCLOSE THOSE RELATIONSHIPS.
TWO PATIENTS AT THE INITIAL OR
FIRST OFFICE VISIT. THE
DISCLOSURE OF THESE
RELATIONSHIPS WOULD BE A WRITTEN
NOTICE OR ELECTRONIC NOTICE OF
THE OPEN PAYMENTS DATABASE. A
SIGNATURE IS ONLY REQUIRED IS
THE ONLY REQUIRED WRITTEN NOTICE
. IF THEY'RE WRITTEN NOTICES IS
PROVIDED, AND IT'S BASICALLY
LETTING FOLKS KNOW UH, ABOUT
THIS OPEN PAYMENTS DATABASE.
WHICH IS A LOCATION WHERE
THEY'RE ABLE TO POST. THAT'S AN
EASY TO USE WEBSITE, WHICH LISTS
FINANCIAL EXCHANGES BETWEEN DRUG
AND DEVICE MANUFACTURERS AND
HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS. IT GOES
BACK TO 2014. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO
IS TYPE IN YOUR DOCTOR'S NAME.
YOU CAN SEE IF THEY RECEIVE
MONEY FOR PERFORMING RESEARCH OR
ACCEPTING A FREE LUNCH. IT'S
LIKE THE IT'S ALMOST LIKE THE
FORM SEVEN HUNDREDS THAT WE HAVE
TO DO. UH IN THE END OF THE DAY.
THIS IS ABOUT MAKING SURE
THERE'S DISCLOSURE. IF ANYONE
READ THE INCREDIBLE BOOK, DOPE,
SICK OR HAS WATCHED THE
EXTRAORDINARY SERIES ME
NOMINATED SERIES, YOU GET A
SENSE OF THE WORK THAT WAS DONE
BY THE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY
TO TRY TO BUILD RELATIONSHIPS
WITH DOCTORS THROUGH MANY GIFTS
AND TRAVEL. I FREE LUNCH,
ETCETERA SO AS TO TRY TO GET
THEM BETTER TUNED TO AND MORE
LIKELY TO GIVE OUT PRESCRIBE
OXYCONTIN. WE ALL KNOW THAT
CHARACTER. HORRIFIC RESULTS OF
THAT. THIS IS JUST AN
OPPORTUNITY. THIS JUST PROVIDES
INFORMATION TO MEMBERS OF THE
PUBLIC THAT THERE IS THIS OPEN
PAYMENTS DATABASE. IT'S OUT
THERE FOR PEOPLE TO LOOK AT. I
DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT IT BEFORE THIS
BILL WAS BROUGHT TO MY
ATTENTION, AND THIS IS AN
OPPORTUNITY FOR US TO LET OUR
CONSTITUENTS KNOW ABOUT THIS
OPPORTUNITY AND THIS WAY OF
GETTING MORE INFORMATION ABOUT
THEIR DOCTORS. SO WITH THAT, I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR MY VOTE.
THANK YOU, SENATOR ALLEN,
SENATOR PAN. SENATOR PANDAS,
DEFERRING TO SENATOR NEWMAN, UM
QUESTION FOR THE AUTHOR. WILL
YOU TAKE A QUESTION? THANK YOU.
SO DOES THIS MANDATE APPLY TO
EVERY CALIFORNIA PHYSICIAN EVEN
IF THEY HAVEN'T TAKEN A SINGLE
DOLLAR FROM A MANUFACTURER, DRUG
COMPANY? CINDERELLA YES, IN
BRIEF. YES I MEAN THE BILLS
ULTIMATELY ABOUT TRANSPARENCY.
IT'S YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW THE END
OF THE DAY IF YOU DON'T HAVE
ANYTHING TO REPORT YOU CAN GO
ONLINE AND SEE THAT PEOPLE DON'T
HAVE ANYTHING TO REPORT. UM BUT
THIS IS ULTIMATELY ABOUT
TRANSPARENCY. YOU KNOW WHY SO.
JUST AS A MAJORITY OF US WORKING
IN THIS CAPITOL BUILDING. STATE
AGENCIES OR CITY HALL. EACH OF
US HAVE TO FILL OUT A FORM 700,
EVEN IF IT EVEN IF THERE'S
NOTHING TO REPORT AH! YEAH. SAME
THING OCCURS HERE WITH THE
DOCTOR. IT'S JUST PROVIDING
PATIENTS WITH THE INFORMATION
THAT THIS OPEN PAYMENTS DATABASE
EXISTS THAT IT'S AVAILABLE. THEY
CAN GO ON AND LOOK AND OF
COURSE, IF THERE'S NOTHING THAT
THE DOCTOR HAD TO REPORT, THEN
THERE'S NOTHING FOR THEM TO
FIND. A COUPLE OF OTHER
QUESTIONS. THE FEDERAL OPEN
PAYMENTS DATABASE APPLIES TO A
VARIETY OF PROVIDERS, INCLUDING
NURSE PRACTITIONERS, PHYSICIAN
ASSISTANTS AND OTHERS. WHY WOULD
THIS BILL ONLY APPLY DISCLOSURE
REQUIREMENTS TO PHYSICIANS AND
SURGEONS, BUT NOT TO OTHER
MEDICAL PROVIDERS? IN THE SAME
DATABASE? SENATOR ALLEN WILL YOU
TAKE ANOTHER QUESTION?
ABSOLUTELY I MEAN, I APPRECIATE
THAT THE DIALOGUE SO. YOU KNOW,
IF YOU IF YOU LOOK IF YOU THE
CALIFORNIA MEDICAL BOARD, UH YOU
KNOW REQUIRES. THAT EVERY
OFFICIAL PHYSICIAN ASSISTANT BE
SUPERVISED BY A LICENSED
PHYSICIAN. ULTIMATELY, THE BUCK
STOPS WITH PHYSICIANS. THEY'RE
THE ONES WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR
ALL MEDICAL SERVICES PROVIDED BY
THE PHYSICIAN ASSISTANT UNDER
THEIR SUPERVISION. UH YOU KNOW,
IT'S THE DOCTORS WHO PROVIDE
OVERSIGHT AS WELL FOR THE NURSE
PRACTITIONERS. AND SO IN THE END
OF THE DAY, IT'S THE IT'S THE
IT'S THE DOCTORS AND PHYSICIANS
THAT THAT SHOULD HAVE MOST
ACCOUNTABILITY BY THE PATIENT
THERE. ALSO, OF COURSE, THE ONES
THAT ARE MOST LIKELY TO, YOU
KNOW TO RECEIVE. THE KINDS
RECEIVED GIFT RESEARCH MONEY,
ETCETERA, THE KINDS OF THINGS
THAT ARE THAT ARE THAT ARE
REPORTED IN THE OPEN PAYMENTS
DATABASE. ANOTHER QUESTION IF I
MAY SENATOR ALLEN. WE TAKE
ANOTHER QUESTION. ABSOLUTELY.
THANK YOU. SENATOR NEWMAN. SO AS
I UNDERSTAND IT, THE BILL
SPECIFICALLY STATES THAT FAILURE
TO COMPLY WITH ANY PART OF THE
MEASURE WOULD CONSTITUTE
UNPROFESSIONAL CONDUCT. WHICH
COULD THEN ENTAIL SANCTIONS AS
SEVERE AS AN AUTOMATIC FIVE YEAR
PROBATION FOR A PHYSICIAN, WHICH
WOULD BE ON PAR WITH EXCESSIVE
PRESCRIBING OR PRACTICING UNDER
THE INFLUENCE. SO SUCH AN
OMISSION MIGHT BE INADVERTENT.
WHY WOULD INADVERTENTLY FAILING
TO DISCUSS DISCLOSE A FEDERAL
WEBSITE JUSTIFY THE SAME
PENALTIES UNDER THIS BILL, AS
HE'S OBVIOUSLY MUCH MORE
EGREGIOUS ACT. WELL SO THAT IT'S
IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THE BILL
DOESN'T MANDATE THAT THE BOARD
AUTOMATICALLY TAKE ANY ACTION
AGAINST A PHYSICIAN. I MEAN, THE
LAW. INCLUDING. I KNOW THAT THE
BOARD'S OWN DISCIPLINARY
GUIDELINES AH PROVIDES THE BOARD
FLEXIBILITY. TO LOOK AT THE
TOTALITY OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES,
IF IT REALLY IS A SITUATION THAT
YOU JUST MENTIONED LIKE AN
INADVERTENT FAILURE. THEN THEN I
YOU KNOW YOU DON'T. THE BOARD
LOOKS AT THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES AND
MAKES A DECISION IN TERMS OF
DISCIPLINE. BASED ON THE
TOTALITY OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES.
YEAH, THE BOARDS APPOINTED
MEMBERS ARE NEARLY, UH, YOU
KNOW, THERE THEY EXERCISE THEIR
JUDGMENT. ON APPROPRIATE
DISCIPLINE. AND IF IT IF IT'S
DON'T LOOK AT. WAS IT? WAS IT
JUST AN HONEST MISTAKE? IS THIS
THE FIRST TIME? YOU KNOW, UNDER
THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES AND
SITUATIONS LIKE THIS COME UP TO
THE BOARD ALL THE TIME. THE
BOARD DOES NOT EXACT DISCIPLINE
AGAINST AND THE PHYSICIAN. BUT
IF IT'S A SITUATION WHERE THERE
REPEATEDLY VIOLATING WHERE
THEY'VE BEEN REPEATEDLY INFORMED
OF THEIR VIOLATION, AND THEY'RE
STILL NOT PROVIDING THIS
DISCLOSURE, THEN THAT'S A
DIFFERENT STORY. ANOTHER
QUESTION. BUT ANOTHER FUTURE
THAT BILL, PLEASE YEP. SO UM, A
B 12 78 SPECIFICALLY STATES THAT
THE PHYSICIAN OR SURGEON HAS TO
PROVIDE THE PATIENT TO
DISCLOSURE AND OBTAIN A
SIGNATURE, UH, AND FOR SOME
COMPLEX MEDICAL CASES AND
SURGERIES, PARTICULARLY
CONSULTATIONS FOLLOWING AN
ACCIDENT, FOR INSTANCE, IT'S NOT
UNCOMMON FOR A PATIENT TO MEET
WITH MULTIPLE PHYSICIANS AT ONE
TIME UNDER THIS LAW WOULDN'T
EACH POSITION THEN HAVE TO
PROVIDE A PATIENT OF FORM TO
SIGN. DURING THE SAME VISIT, AND
DOESN'T THIS SEEM A BIT ONEROUS
AND POTENTIALLY ADDING
ADDITIONAL STRESS AND
DISTRACTIONS TO WHAT IS LIKELY
ALREADY A DIFFICULT TIME FOR A
PATIENT. YEAH SO? SO SO, FIRST
OF ALL, I THINK IT SHOULD BE
pNOTED THAT, UM WITHIN THE BILLS
CURRENT LANGUAGE, ALL THE DOCTOR
HAS TO DO IS PROVIDE A WRITTEN
OR IN ELECTRONIC NOTICE, AND
ONLY THE WRITTEN VERSION OF THE
NOTICE REQUIRES A SIGNATURE.
THIS BILL LEAVES IT UP LEAVES
THAT QUESTION UP TO THE DOCTOR
AND THE PATIENT, SO THIS VERSION
OF THE BILL SEEKS TO RELIEVE
SOME OF THE ADVERSE
ADMINISTRATIVE BURDEN THAT
YOU'RE REFERRING TO BY ALLOWING
FOR AN ELECTRONIC SIGNATURE TO
BE PROVIDED. UM BUT YES, IF IT'S
PROVIDED ON THE WRITTEN FORM,
THEN THE PATIENT WOULD NEED TO
SIGN THE FORM FROM EACH DOCTOR.
BUT AGAIN, THIS JUST HAPPENS ONE
TIME. I YOU KNOW, IF YOU KNOW, I
THINK WE ALL KNOW WE'RE GOING TO
THE DOCTORS. YOU FILL OUT A LOT
OF FORMS. THOSE FORMS ALL SHOW
UP HANDED TO YOU AND IT'S THE
WAY THE BILL IS WRITTEN. YOU
KNOW, BUT IN THE END OF THE DAY
, I THAT YOU KNOW, IT'S DONE
JUST ONCE AT THE VERY BEGINNING,
WHEN THE PATIENT COMES TO THE
DOCTOR FOR THE FIRST TIME, I
APPRECIATE THAT. SO I ENQUIRIES
SATISFIED OR SHOULD WE READ SOME
OTHER QUESTIONS? BUT IT SEEMS
I'M AFFECTING THE HEALTH OF MY
COLLEAGUE FROM MARIN. SO UM, I
DO HAVE SOME OTHER QUESTIONS,
BUT YOU KNOW, THEY ALL
ILLUSTRATE THE FAIRLY
STRAIGHTFORWARD TRUTH. I THINK
ABOUT THIS BILL THAT THERE'S A
NUMBER OF THERE'S A LACK OF
CLARITY. THEIR NUMBER OF OWNERS
PROVISIONS. UM THIS IS CLEARLY A
WELL INTENTIONED PROVISIONS OR
MEASURE, BUT IT'S POORLY DEFINED
AND WOULD BE POORLY AND ONEROUS
. LEE IMPLEMENTED. URGENT NO
VOTE. THANK YOU, SENATOR NEWMAN,
SENATOR PAN. THANK YOU
QUESTIONS. WOULD YOU LIKE TO?
ACTUALLY I THINK SENATOR NEWMAN
HAS COVERED ALL THE QUESTIONS.
I'M JUST GONNA MAKE SOME
REMARKS. PANYU ARE RECOGNIZED
FOR THE FLOOR. THANK YOU. THANK
YOU, MR PRESIDENT. SENATORS, UM
I, TOO, UNFORTUNATELY UNABLE TO
SUPPORT THE BILL, HAVE YOU MADE
NOTE? I DID VOTE FOR IN
COMMITTEE IN THE HOPES THAT IN
CONVERSATION WITH THE AUTHOR
THAT WE WOULD BE ABLE TO ENSURE
THAT WE MINIMIZE THE BURDEN ON
PRACTICES. AND PHYSICIANS. UM I
WOULD ALSO MAKE NOTE AS SOMEONE
WHO ACTUALLY IS IN THE DATABASE
AS A LICENSED PHYSICIAN THAT THE
DATABASE ITSELF HAS MANY
INACCURACIES. UNLIKE THE FORM
700. THE DATA PROVIDED IN THE
DATABASE IS NOT FROM THE
PHYSICIAN THEMSELVES, BUT FROM
VARIOUS PHARMACEUTICAL DEVICE
MANUFACTURERS. HERE'S INCENTIVE
IS TO OVER REPORT. NOT
NECESSARILY, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE
THEY WOULD HAVE A PENALTY OF THE
UNDER REPORTED SO. NOW WELL, I
DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH
SOMEONE LOOKING UP THE DATABASE
AND THEN ENQUIRING AS TO WHAT'S
UNDER, FOR EXAMPLE, MY NAME AND
I WOULD POINT OUT ACTUALLY
INTERESTING ENOUGH. IF YOU DO
PUT MY NAME IN THE DATABASE.
YOU'LL FIND OUT THAT I RECEIVED
SEVERAL SPEAKING FEES THAT
TURNED OUT THERE ACTUALLY
CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS. BUT
HOWEVER, BECAUSE THERE'S NO
CATEGORY FOR THAT THE
PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY REPORTED
THEM TO SPEAKING FEAST, SO THEY
AREN'T SPEAKING FEES. SO THAT'S
AN INACCURACY. BUT ASIDE FROM
THAT, THE INACCURACIES AND
THERE'S OTHER FORMS THINGS THAT
HAPPEN. THERE ALSO CAUSED
INACCURACIES AND I DON'T MIND
EXPLAINING THEM TO PATIENTS. I
WOULD NOT MAKE NOTE THAT THERE
THERE. THIS BILL IS SOMEWHAT
BURDENSOME, AND I THINK IT'S
POINTED OUT BY MY GOOD FRIEND
THAT, FOR EXAMPLE, YOU HAVE
MULTIPLE PHYSICIANS IN THE TEAM.
EACH POSITION HAS 21. WE HAVE TO
KEEP THINGS IN A FILING CABINET.
YOU KNOW YOU GET ATTACKED, BY
THE WAY. YOU ALSO NOT ONLY DO
YOU HAVE TO COLLECT THE FORM,
YOU ALSO HAVE TO POST IT IN YOUR
OFFICE AND THEN YOU HAVE TO POST
ON YOUR WEBSITE. UM MOST OTHER
THINGS. YOU JUST HAVE TO POST IT
IN ONE PLACE. I HAVE NO PROBLEM
WITH A SIGN IN THE OFFICE SAYING
HERE'S HERE HERE IS THE WEBSITE.
FOR THE OPEN SPEAKERS DATABASE.
AND IF YOUR PHYSICIAN YES,
PLEASE LOOK UP YOUR PHYSICIAN OR
PHYSICIANS IN THAT DATABASE OF
YOU AND ASK THEM IF YOU HAVE ANY
QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT FUNDS THEY
GOT ON THAT DATABASE. I THINK
THAT WOULD BE APPROPRIATE. BUT
THIS BILL IS OVERLY BURDENED
SOME WEARY NO POSITIONS. PRIMARY
CARE PHYSICIANS HAVE ONLY
SPENDING 28% OF THEIR TIME DOING
CLINICAL WORK. THE REST OF THE
TIME DOING MINISTRY OF WORK. WE
DON'T NEED MORE ADMINISTRATION.
WE DON'T NEED MORE FILE CABINETS
FULL OF FORMS FROM PATIENTS.
THAT THEY HAD SIGNED SO WE CAN%
PROVE THAT WE ACTUALLY COLLECTED
THESE FORMS. SO I YOU KNOW,
CERTAINLY WOULD BE PLEASED TO
WORK AT THE AUTHOR TO TRY TO
COME WITH A BETTER, UH FOR
APPROACH TO THIS. UNFORTUNATELY
THAT DID NOT HAPPEN AFTER
COMMITTEE. AND SO I'M GOING TO
HAVE TO BE IN THE VOTE. THANK
YOU. THANK YOU, SENATOR PAN
MEMBERS ANYMORE DISCUSSION OR
DEBATE ON FILE ITEM TO 60
ASSEMBLY BILL 12 78. ANY MORE
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE, SEEING
NONE. SENATOR ALLEN. YOU MAKE
LOSE MEMBERS. I APPRECIATE THE
ROBUST DISCUSSION. I WILL SAY,
YOU KNOW, IN THE END OF THE DAY.
THIS IS ABOUT TRANSPARENCY. I
ABSOLUTELY AGREE WITH OUR FRIEND
FROM SACRAMENTO ABOUT NOT TRYING
TO CAUSE MORE ADMINISTRATIVE
VIRGINS FOR THE PHYSICIANS
THEMSELVES, BUT THIS IS A JUST A
FORM. IT'S PART OF THAT PACKET
THAT'S PROVIDED TO THE PATIENTS
WHEN THEY FIRSTSHOW UP. UM YOU
KNOW THAT'S HANDLED BY THEIR
ADMIN IS ALMOST ALWAYS JUST LIKE
EVERY EVERY EVERY OTHER PART OF
THAT PACKET THAT JUST PROVIDES
BASIC INFORMATION ABOUT
SOMETHING THAT I WOULD GUESS
THAT MOST OF US HAVEN'T HADN'T
HEARD OF BEFORE. OBVIOUSLY FOLKS
WHO ARE DEEP IN THE PHYSICIAN
WORLD MAY KNOW ABOUT THIS THIS
DATABASE, BUT THIS IS AN
IMPORTANT ASSET THAT'S OUT
THERE, AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC ARE
AWARE OF THE FACT THAT THEY HAVE
THE RIGHT TO GO ON TO THIS
DATABASE AT ANY TIME AND SEE
WHAT SORT OF GIFTS NOW WHAT SORT
OF MONEY THEIR THEIR DOCTORS ARE
TAKING FROM VARIOUS INTEREST AND
THAT'S ULTIMATELY ALL THIS IS
ABOUT. UM SO I KNOW THERE WAS
YOU KNOW, I KNOW THE AUTHOR
WORKED WORKED HARD WITH WITH
OTHERS ON I'M TRYING TO GET THIS
TO A GOOD PLACE. UH YOU KNOW, I
HEARD THE COMMENT MADE ABOUT
ABOUT ERRORS. I MEAN, ALL THOSE
AREAS, OF COURSE, CAN BE FIXED
CREDIT REPORTING COMPANIES MAKE
MISTAKES, AND THERE'S RECOURSE
IN FIXING THOSE MISTAKES. AH!
YOU KNOW, THERE'S A MECHANISM
WITHIN THIS DATABASE TO DO THAT
AS WELL. SO WITHOUT A
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AND ABOUT.

AUTHOR TO PRESENT A B 23 43,
WHICH SEEKS TO ADDRESS THE
DEFICIENCIES IN CALIFORNIA'S
LOCAL DETENTION FACILITIES
RAISED BY THE CALIFORNIA STATE
AUDITOR'S OFFICE. LAST YEAR, THE
AUDITOR'S OFFICE INVESTIGATED
THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY SHERIFF'S
DEPARTMENT AND DISCOVERED 185
INDIVIDUALS IN THEIR CUSTODY
DIED FROM 2006 THROUGH 2020.
MORE DEATHS PER AVERAGE DAILY
POPULATIONS THAN ANY OTHER LARGE
COUNTY IN THE STATE. THE STATE
AUDIT FINDINGS CONFIRM THE
EXTENSIVE PUBLIC RECORD
DOCUMENTING THE TRAGIC LOSS OF
LIVES AND INADEQUACY OF THE
OVERSIGHT. THAT LOCAL ADVOCATES
HAVE LONG CALLED ATTENTION TO
THE AUDITOR NOTED THAT SOME OF
THE SAN DIEGO SHERIFF
DEPARTMENT'S POLICY DEFICIENCIES
OR THE RESULT OF POOR STATEWIDE
CORRECTION STANDARDS DESIGN BY
THE BOARD OF STATE AND COMMUNITY
CORRECTIONS. RBS CC AND THAT
IMPROVING THE STATEWIDE
STANDARDS WOULD PROTECT AGAINST
DEVASTATING HEALTH AND SAFETY
OUTCOMES. TWO PERSON THING, UM,
COUNTY CUSTODY. A B 23 43 WOULD
ENACT SEVERAL AUDITOR'S
RECOMMENDATIONS TO IMPROVE THE
OUTCOMES AND ALL DETENTION
FACILITIES BY REQUIRING THE DSCC
TO DEVELOP AND ADOPT REGULATIONS
THAT ALIGN WITH BEST PRACTICES.
IN AREAS OF INTAKE SAFETY CHECKS
AND STAFF TRAINING. THE BILL
ALSO ADDS ADDITIONAL EXPERTISE
TO THE BOARD BY INCLUDING A
LICENSED HEALTHCARE PROVIDER AND
A LICENSED MENTAL HEALTH CARE
PROVIDER ON THE BOARD. THERE'S A
CRISIS CERTAINLY OF INCARCERATED
PEOPLE DYING BEHIND BARS. MAYBE
23-14 THREE WILL BRING ABOUT THE
NECESSARY ACCOUNTABILITY AND
ENSURE THAT THE RECOMMENDATIONS
LAID OUT BY THE STATE AUDITOR
ARE IMPLEMENTED TO REDUCE
DEATHS. AND ENSURE THAT THOSE IN
CUSTODY ARE IN SAFE CONDITIONS.
I WOULD ADD THAT THE COUNTY OF
SAN DIEGO IS PLEASED TO CO

BILL 18 81 BY SOMEBODY REMEMBER
SANTIAGO, AN ACT RELATING TO
ANIMAL WELFARE, SENATOR
CABALLERO. THANK YOU, MR
PRESIDENT. I RISE TODAY TO
PRESENT A B 18 81 ON BEHALF OF
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S SANTIAGO. THIS
BILL CREATES AN EDUCATIONAL
NOTICING REQUIREMENT SO
POTENTIAL ADOPTERS OF DOGS AND
CATS KNOW HOW THEIR PETS SHOULD
BE TREATED. NEARLY ONE IN FIVE
AMERICAN HOUSEHOLDS ADOPTED A
PET DURING THE PANDEMIC, WHILE
SOME SHELTERS HUMANE SOCIETIES
AND RESCUES GO ABOVE AND BEYOND
, TO INFORM POTENTIAL ADOPTERS
OF THE RESPONSIBILITY OF
ADOPTION. THERE EXISTS NO
BASELINE EDUCATIONAL FRAMEWORK
FOR THEM TO FOR THEM TO EDUCATE.
THE NEW THE NEW PARENTS. NOW
THAT THE STATE IS REOPENING, IT
CAN BE HARD FOR OWNERS TO
PROVIDE THE SAME LEVEL OF CARE
AS THEY DID WHILE THEY WERE
WORKING FROM HOME. A B 18 81 IS
ONE STEP TO CREATE A BASELINE
EDUCATIONAL NOTICE FOR ALL
POTENTIAL PET ADOPTERS IN
CALIFORNIA AND RECENT AMENDMENTS
DELAY IMPLEMENTATION BY ONE
YEAR. AND LOWER THE MODEST FINE
AMOUNT FROM UH AFTER A 60 DAY
CURE PERIOD FROM 250 TO $150.
THANK YOU, AND I RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR YOUR VOTE. THANK YOU,
SENATOR CAVALLERO. SENATOR
GROVE. THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT.
I RESPECTFULLY RISING OPPOSITION
OF A B 18 81. THE MEASURE WOULD
REQUIRE ANIMAL SHELTERS TO POST
A NOTICE INTENDED TO INFORM
POTENTIAL DOG AND CAT OWNERS,
THE STANDARDS OF BASIC PHYSICAL
CARE AND EMOTIONAL WELL BEING OF
A PET. YOU'RE GONNA ADOPT AN
ANIMAL. YOU SHOULD KNOW THIS. UM
IT ALSO MAKES SHELTERS AND
RESCUE GROUPS SUBJECT TO CIVIL
PENALTIES OF $250 FOR FAILURE TO
POST OR INCLUDE A NOTICE OUR
ANIMAL SHELTERS AND RESCUE
GROUPS HAVE HAD A HARD ENOUGH
TIME PLACING DOGS AND CATS AND
FOREVER HOMES WITHOUT THE
GOVERNMENT DICTATING TO BE THEM.
A ONE SIZE FITS ALL LISTS THAT
HAS TO GO TO ALL THE THOSE
ADOPTION ADOPTED PARENTS. ANIMAL
SHELTERS ARE TRAINED
PROFESSIONALS WHO VOLUNTEER WHO
HAVE TRAINED FOR PROFESSIONALS
THAT VOLUNTEER THAT ALREADY
INTERVIEWING COUNCIL PERSPECTIVE
. ADOPTERS ADOPTERS GET TO GO
VISIT THE ANIMAL BEFORE THEY
ADOPTED. THERE'S NO REAL NEED
FOR THIS BILL, AND ALL THAT DOES
IS PUT OUR ANIMAL SHELTERS THAT
ARE STRUGGLING TO BUY FOOD FOR
THE ANIMALS INSIDE THE SHELTER
AND CARE FOR THEM ANOTHER
BURDENSOME REQUIREMENT. THERE'S
ALSO NO ENFORCEMENT MECHANISM,
RIGHT. SO YOU PUT THE NOTICE
OUT. AND THE ANIMAL SHELTER.
PEOPLE HAVE TO PAY FOR THE
PRINTING AND THE POSTING OF THIS
NOTICE, PUTTING IT ON THEIR
WEBSITE AS WELL AND THEN ALSO
THE PRINTING TO GIVE TO EACH
ADOPT ADOPTEE OR ADOPTER, I
GUESS AND UM, AND THERE'S NO
ENFORCEMENT REQUIREMENTS, SO
SOMEBODY'S GONNA BE EVIL OR
AWFUL TO AN ANIMAL. THIS PIECE
OF PAPER IS NOT GOING TO STOP
IT, AND IT'S JUST ANOTHER
BURDENSOME REQUIREMENT FOR
ANIMAL SHELTERS. AND I HAVE
HEARD FROM MY ANIMAL SHELTERS
AND I TOLD THEM I'D GET UP AND
OPPOSE THIS BILL, SO I REALLY
APPRECIATE A NO VOTE. THANK YOU,
SENATOR GROVES, SENATOR
MELINDA'S. THANK YOU, MR
PRESIDENT. UM LADIES AND
GENTLEMEN, I RISE IN OPPOSITION
TO THIS BILL, ARE WE REALLY
GOING TO GO AFTER ORGANIZATIONS
THAT TAKE CARE OF PETS. SHELTERS
REALLY I MEAN, AND THEN FIND
THEM. THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO EXIST
TO TAKE CARE OF ANIMALS, NOT
HARM OR ABUSE THEM AND OH, BY
THE WAY. IF SOMEONE ISN'T
FAMILIAR WITH HOW TO TAKE CARE
OF A PET. THERE'S THIS THING
CALLED GOOGLE. AND THEY CAN GET
ON THERE AND THEY CAN FIND OUT
EVERYTHING THEY NEED TO KNOW
ABOUT PROPERLY TAKING CARE OF A
PET, BUT THEY DON'T NEED A
POSTER. AT A SHELTER. THAT
THEY'RE NOT GOING TO GO READ TO
TEACH THEM HOW TO TAKE CARE OF
THAT PET. TRUST ME IF THEY ARE,
IF THEY'RE THAT CONSCIENTIOUS
THAT THEY'RE GOING TO A SHELTER
TO GET THEIR ANIMAL RATHER THAN
BUYING THEIR ANIMAL FROM SOME
SORT OF PET MILL OR OR SOMEBODY
ELSE THEN I THINK THEY'RE
PROBABLY VERY FAMILIAR WITH NOT
ONLY HOW TO TAKE CARE OF A PET,
BUT THEY ARE VERY CONCERNED
ABOUT HOW TO TAKE CARE OF THAT
PET AS WELL. AND FOR GOD'S
SAKES. WE CAN. WE CANNOT FIND
SHELTER OWNERS $150 BECAUSE THEY
DIDN'T PUT A POSTER UP. MY
GOODNESS. THINK ABOUT WHAT
YOU'RE DOING. I URGE, YOU KNOW,
VOTE. THANK YOU, SENATOR
MELINDA'S SENATOR NEWMAN. THANK
YOU. MR PRESIDENT ARISE AS THE
MEMBER OF THE LEGISLATION WITH
THE MOST RESCUE CHIHUAHUAS IN
ONE HOUSE. THAT'S FOUR. AND I
WANT TO BUILD ON THE COMMENTS
AND MY COLLEAGUES. THIS BILL
ACTUALLY DOES NOTHING, UH,
PRODUCTIVE TO GET AT THE ACTUAL
BAD ACTORS IN THE PET TRADE. THE
BREEDERS AND THE OTHER VENDORS
OF PETS WHO PURSUE PROFITS AT
THE EXPENSE OF THEIR HEALTH AND
WELL BEING, SO WE ARE PUNISHING
THE WRONG PLAYERS IN THIS
INDUSTRY. BUT LET ME ADD IN
CONSIDERING THE BILL BEFORE YOU
. IT MIGHT BE WORTH NOTING AS
WELL THAT IT MADE IT INTO AN
EDITORIAL TODAY IN TODAY'S LOS
ANGELES TIMES, WHOSE HEADLINE
READS SCRAPPED THE SMALL STUFF
LAWMAKERS MR PRESIDENT
PERMISSION TO READ. THANK YOU.
AND I QUOTE CALIFORNIA'S BIG
PROBLEMS ARE HARDER TO ADDRESS
WHEN POLICYMAKERS AND THEIR
STAFF GET BOGGED DOWN WITH
MINUTIA. TOO MANY BILLS AMOUNT
TO LEGISLATIVE CLUTTER. MANY OF
THE UNNECESSARY BILLS STILL
PENDING IN THE LEGISLATURE
HEADING TO THE GOVERNOR'S DESK
BEGIN WITH AN IDEA THAT EVOKES
SYMPATHY BUT DON'T OFFER
MEANINGFUL SOLUTIONS. A PROPOSED
BILL OF RIGHTS FOR DOGS AND
CATS. SAYS AMONG OTHER THINGS,
THAT THEY DESERVE TO BE FREE
FROM EXPLOITATION, CRUELTY,
NEGLECT AND ABUSE. WE AGREE
WHOLEHEARTEDLY, BUT STATE LAW
ALREADY PROTECTS AGAINST ANIMAL
ABUSE AND QUOTE. LET'S DISPENSE
WITH THIS WELL INTENTIONED
MEASURE AND MOVE ON TO BIGGER
THINGS. I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR
YOUR NO VOTE. THANK YOU, SENATOR
NEWMAN. ANY OTHER DISCUSSION OR
DEBATE ON THIS ITEM ANY MORE
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE? SENATOR
CAVALLERO, YOU MAY CLOSE. THANK
YOU VERY MUCH, MR PRESIDENT.
LOOK, THIS IS A NOTICE IT'S A
NOTICE AND YOU KNOW YOU YOU'RE
YOU'RE PROBABLY RIGHT. PEOPLE
SHOULD KNOW THAT THEY OUGHT TO
TAKE BETTER CARE OF THEIR
ANIMALS. BUT HOW MANY ANIMALS DO
YOU KNOW THAT GET LEFT IN THE
BACKYARD AND NOBODY DOES
ANYTHING TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY
COME IN WHEN IT RAINED THAT
THEY'RE INSIDE WHEN IT'S COLD.
THAT THEY'RE INSIDE. IF IT GETS
EXTREMELY HARD HOT, IT'S
IMPORTANT. I THINK TO HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO ADVISE PEOPLE
WHAT THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF A
PET OWNER ARE, AND, UM, TO
ADVISE THEM THAT THERE ARE
CERTAIN ACTIVITIES THAT WE
SHOULD BE INVOLVED IN,
ESPECIALLY AS AS WE RAISE DOGS,
UM THEY NEED TO BE. THEY NEED
THE CARE AND ATTENTION AND SO
THERE IS NO ENFORCEMENT
MECHANISM. QUITE FRANKLY, THERE
IS A CURE OPPORTUNITY AS WELL. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR VOTE.

NATIONAL DATA HAS INDICATED TO
VERY CONCERNING TRENDS IN EARLY
CHILDHOOD EDUCATION. NOT ONLY
ARE SUSPENSIONS AND EXPANSION IS
MORE COMMON IN THE PRESCHOOL
SETTING THAT IN CAPE THROUGH 12

AFFECT CHILDREN OF COLOR.
RESEARCH SHOWS, PRESCHOOL
EXPULSION AND SUSPENSION

PRESIDENT. MEMBERS MAYBE 22 23
WILL REINFORCE EXISTING STATE
PROTECTIONS AND ENSURE THAT NO
ONE IN CALIFORNIA'S PROSECUTED
FOR ENDING A PREGNANCY OR
EXPERIENCING PREGNANCY LOSS. UM. IT REMOVES THE OUTDATED
PROVISIONS REQUIRING CORONERS TO
INVESTIGATE CERTAIN PREGNANCY
LOSSES AND CLARIFIES THAT THE
REPRODUCTIVE PRIVACY ACT
PROHIBITS CRIMINALIZATION OF
PREGNANCY LOSS AND PREGNANCY
OUTCOMES. I ASK FOR YOUR I VOTE.
THANK YOU ANY DISCUSSION OR
DEBATE ON THIS ITEM? SENATOR
MELENDEZ.
THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT. UM.
SOME MEMBERS. I AM RISING IN
OPPOSITION TO THIS BILL. I AM
SURE IS NO SURPRISE. FOR A
NUMBER OF REASONS. UM FIRST OF
ALL. WHY WOULD WE NOT ALLOW AN
INVESTIGATION? OF THE BIRTH. OF
AN INFANT. I DON'T QUITE
UNDERSTAND. I WANT TO FIND MY
OOPS, MY NOTES HERE. OKAY? I
APPRECIATE THAT THE AUTHOR
AMENDED THE BILL. CHANGED IT
FROM. DELETED THE PHRASE DUE TO
A PREGNANCY RELATED CAUSE THAT
WAS REPLACED WITH DUE TO CAUSES
THAT OCCURRED IN UTERO. UM THAT
DOESN'T REALLY MAKE THE BILL
MUCH BETTER. IF YOU CAN'T. HOLD
ANYBODY CRIMINALLY OR CIVILLY
LIABLE FOR SOMETHING THAT THEY
DO? UM IN THE PROCESS OF TRYING
TO PERFORM AN ABORTION. WHO ARE
WE PROTECTING HERE? I MEAN, WE
JUST. I'M AT A LOSS AS TO WHY
WE'RE EVEN CONTEMPLATING A BILL
LIKE THIS. UM. DO YOU HAVE
ANOTHER? FREEZE IN THIS BILL
THAT SAYS, NOTWITHSTANDING, ANY
OTHER LAW PERSON SHALL NOT BE
SUBJECT TO CIVIL OR CRIMINAL
LIABILITY OR PENALTY BASED ON
THEIR ACTIONS OR EMISSIONS WITH
RESPECT TO THEIR PREGNANCY
OUTCOME. SO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?
A BABY IS THE PREGNANCY
OUTCOMES. RIGHT? SO. THIS MEANS
ESSENTIALLY. A WOMAN COULD. GIVE
BIRTH TO THIS BABY EITHER. YOU
KNOW, EARLY PRETERM LABOR OR AND
THAT COULD BE AS A RESULT OF
TAKING SOME SORT OF MEDICATION.
UM AND THEN BE ALLOWED TO JUST
LET THE BABY DIE AND PROVIDE NO
MEDICAL ASSISTANCE. AND THIS
BILL SAYS. THAT YOU COULD DO
THAT AND YOU CAN'T HOLD ANYBODY
CRIMINALLY LIABLE FOR THAT. THIS
BODY. GIVES MORE REGARD TO THE
LIVES OF DOGS AND CATS. THAN IT
DOES TO HUMAN BEINGS. AND THAT'S
RON. THAT SAYS SOMETHING ABOUT
OUR SOCIETY THAT SAYS SOMETHING
ABOUT US AS A PEOPLE IN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA. I AM WELL
AWARE OF THE FACT THAT A NO ONE
IN HERE IS PAYING ATTENTION TO
WHAT I'M SAYING. AND B, YOU'RE
GOING TO PASS THIS BILL ANYWAY.
BUT I JUST FELT COMPELLED TO
STAND UP AND SPEAK ON BEHALF OF
THE INFANTS THAT MAY VERY WELL
BE BORN. ALIVE DESPITE SOMEONE'S
ATTEMPT. TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT
DOESN'T HAPPEN. AND STATE THAT
THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO MEDICAL
CARE AND THOSE WHO DO THEM. HARM
IN THE PROCESS SHOULD BE HELD
ACCOUNTABLE. JUST LIKE WE HOLD
ACCOUNTABLE PEOPLE WHO ENGAGE IN
ANIMAL CRUELTY. I'M ASKING FOR A
NO VOTE. THANK YOU ANY FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE ON THIS
ITEMS, SENATOR GROVE. THANK YOU,
MR PRESIDENT. UM I STAND IN
OPPOSITION OF TWO TO A B 22 TO 3
. THIS BILL IS NOT ABOUT
PROTECTING MOTHERS FROM
PREGNANCY LOST. THIS BILL IS
TRUE PURPOSE IS TO COVER UP THE
CRIME OF A BOTCHED ABORTION OR
SELF INDUCED ABORTION. IT
CREATES NEW, UNLICENSED AND
REGULATED CLASS OF PEOPLE WHO,
UM, IF THEY HELP THE MOTHER WILL
ENSURE THAT HELPED THE MOTHER TO
ENSURE THAT THE BABY DOES NOT
SURVIVE. AFTER A BOTCHED
ABORTION OR SELF INDUCED, UM,
INBOARD ABORTION. THIS IS
REFERRED TO AS PERINATAL DEATH
DUE TO CAUSES THAT OCCURRED IN
UTERO. YOU KNOW, WE WERE IN
COMMITTEE AND I ASKED FOR A
DEFINITION OF IN UTERO. I ASKED
FOR A DEFINITION, AND ONE OF MY
COLLEAGUES SAID YOU DON'T NEED A
DEFINITION AND IN UTERO IS IN
UTERO. AND I THINK IN TODAY'S
SOCIETY, WE DO NEED DEFINITIONS.
IT WAS JUST RECENTLY. THAT I
THINK WAS A CALIFORNIA FISHING
GAMES SAID YOU KNOW THAT A FISH
WAS A BIRD, AND NOBODY CAN GIVE
A DEFINITION OF A WOMAN AND
THERE ARE DIFFERENT THINGS THAT
ARE GOING ON. SO I THINK A
DEFINITION OF WHAT IN UTERO IS
WILL BE SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE
NEEDED TO CLEAR IT UP IN THIS
BILL. THIS BILL GIVES IMMUNITY
TO ANY SORT OF REGULATORY OR
MEDICAL OVERSIGHT, INVESTIGATION
OR PROSECUTION. FOR THE DEATH OF
AN INFANT BORN ALIVE, MEANING
THAT THE CORONER'S OFFICE CANNOT
INVESTIGATE ANY CRIME. SO THINK
ABOUT THAT FOR JUST A SECOND
BABIES BORN ALIVE. THE MOTHER
AND SOMEONE HELPING HER LEAVES
IT ON THE COUNTER, AND IT JUST
DIES. 8 10 HOURS LATER, THAT'S
NOT EVEN ABLE TO BE
INVESTIGATED. THERE'S ALSO IF
SOMEBODY INTERFERES OR TRIGGERS
IF SOMEBODY INTERFERES IN THE
INVESTIGATION, IT'S A $25,000.
TRIGGERS A LAWSUIT OF $25,000 IN
PENALTIES PLUS ATTORNEY'S FEES.
THIS IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST
CONCERNS WITH A B 2 TO 3. IT
WILL PREVENT ANY INVESTIGATION
INTO THE CAUSE OF THE BABY'S
DEATH, ENSURING JUSTICE FOR THE
BABY BORN ALIVE. THE PREGNANT
MOTHER, ANYONE WHO HELPS HER IS
NOT JUST ABORTION, DOCTOR OR
CLINICIAN, BUT IT SAYS ANYONE
WHO AIDS OR A SISTER WILL ENJOY
SEPARATE PRIVATE LEGAL. CAUSE OF
ACTION AGAINST ANYONE WHO MAY
INQUIRE ABOUT THE BABY'S DEATH
AFTER BIRTH, SO IT DOESN'T ALLOW
ANYBODY TO EVEN STAND ON THE
SIDE OF THE INFANT BORN ALIVE.
THE BILL OPENS PANDORA'S BOX OF
A POTENTIAL CONSEQUENCES. THE
AUTHOR STATED THAT IT'S NOTHER
INTENTION. HOWEVER THE LANGUAGE
AND A B 2 TO 3 LEAVES THE DOOR
OPEN FOR INTERPRETATION AND THE
VAGUENESS WITHIN THE BILL'S
LANGUAGE STATES PERIOD. NATAL
DEATH DUE TO CAUSES OCCURRED IN
UTERO. UM THIS IS THE EXACT
PHRASE AND IT'S YET TO BE
DEFINED, AND THERE IS NO
DEFINITION, RECENT REPORTS BOTH
BY FOX NEWS AND LIVE ACTION
ILLUSTRATE EXACTLY UM, WHAT WILL
BE BEYOND THE REACH OF
CALIFORNIA INVESTIGATORS, ONCE A
B 2 TO 3 LAW IS PASSED. FOR
EXAMPLE, FOR EXAMPLE, IN APRIL
OF 2022, A 41 YEAR OLD NEBRASKA
MOTHER, UH, BOUGHT ABORTION
PILLS FOR HER 17 YEAR OLD
PREGNANT DAUGHTER. THE DAUGHTER
TOOK THE PILLS AND GAVE BIRTH TO
A VIABLE 24 WEEK, BABY BOY.
AGAIN IT WAS A VIABLE BABY
DELIVERED ALIVE AFTER HIS BIRTH
MOTHER AND THE DAUGHTER STUFF
THE BABY INTO A PLASTIC BAG,
TRIED TO BURN THE EVIDENCE AND
THEN BURIED THE BABY'S BURNED
DEAD BODY THAT UNDER THE A B 2
TO 3 WOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO BE
INVESTIGATED BY THE CORONER'S
OFFICE BECAUSE THE BABY WAS, UH
, THE LIFE ENDED IN UTERO BASED
ON A DEFINITION OR NO
DEFINITION, ALLOWED IN A B 2 TO
3. I ASKED FOR, UM, A NO VOTE ON
THIS BILL. THIS BILL GOES WAY
BEYOND THE SCOPE OF JUST
ABORTION ON DEMAND ABORTION UP
UNTIL BIRTH. THIS ACTUALLY THIS
BILL INCLUDES SOME OF THE
DEFINITIONS THAT WERE IN THIS
BILL. THAT THE, UM THAT ARE IN
THIS BILL ALSO INCLUDE
AFTERBIRTH, AND IT'S JUST AN
ACCEPTABLE THAT WE WOULDN'T EVEN
BE DEBATING THIS BILL AND THIS
BILL IS GOING TO PASS. I KNOW IT
IS JUST LIKE MY COLLEAGUE FROM
LAKE ELSINORE SAID, UM, BUT WE
HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO STAND UP
AND TELL YOU HOW WRONG IT IS.
AND WE RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR A NO
VOTE. THANK YOU ANY FURTHER
DISCUSSION OR BASE SENATOR
LEVEL. THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT.
I CAN'T HELP WITH ALL THE
CRAZINESS THAT WE JUST HEARD,
BUT I CAN'T HELP WITH ONE THING
, THE DEFINITION OF IN UTERO IS
IN A WOMAN'S UTERUS. SO I WAS
ABLE TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION FOR
THE SENATOR FROM BAKERSFIELD. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR MY VOTE.
THANK YOU. SENATOR MELENDEZ
EUROPE AGAIN? NO OKAY. ANY
ADDITIONAL, SENATOR MELENDEZ?
JUST TO CLARIFY AND THANK YOU,
MR PRESIDENT FOR ALLOWING ME AND
SOME ADDITIONAL TIME THE BILL
DOES NOT DEFINE. UM WHAT WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT HERE WITH RESPECT
TO IN UTERO. SO, UM PREVIOUS
COMMENTS AREN'T EXACTLY CORRECT
. AND I WILL REMIND YOU OR I
GUESS EDUCATES YOU ON THE
DIFFICULTY THAT ONE CAN HAVE IN
TRYING TO DETERMINE WHETHER OR
NOT AN INJURY TOOK PLACE IN
UTERO OR AFTER HAVING, UH,
DELIVER THIS BABY. KERMIT GODS,
NOW THE FAMOUS ABORTION DOCTOR
WHO WENT TO PRISON. WHEN THEY
WENT INTO UM, HIS BUILDING WHERE
HE WAS PERFORMING THESE
ABORTIONS AND THEY FOUND THESE
BABIES AND THEY ARE TRYING TO
CONDUCT THEIR INVESTIGATION.
THEY DETERMINE. THAT THEY WERE
NOT ABLE TO FIGURE OUT WHETHER
THE INJURIES TO THESE INFANTS
THAT WERE BORN ALIVE WHETHER IT
HAPPENED IN UTERO OR AFTER
BIRTH. IT IS NOT AS SIMPLE AS IT
SOUNDS, AND THE BILL. DOES NOT
ADDRESS IT ADEQUATELY. AND SO
AGAIN, I ASK FOR A NO VOTE.
THANK YOU ANY ADDITIONAL

IDENTIFIED. WHEN THIS HAPPENS,
FAMILIES IN NEED ARE RECEIVING A

BEHALF OF ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S
WEBER. THE I AM PRESENTING THE
SAFE. CALIFORNIA CALL CENTERS.
JOB ACT CENTERS ARE MAJOR
ECONOMIC FORCE IN THE COUNTRY
REPRESENTING ABOUT 3% OF OUR
WORKFORCE, YET THE NUMBER OF
CUSTOMER SERVICE AND CONTACT
CENTER JOBS HAVE DECLINED N THE
LAST FOUR YEARS BY 500,000,
LARGELY DUE TO OUTSOURCING AND
LAYOFFS. IT HAS BECOME ALL TOO
COMMON FOR CORPORATIONS TO REAP
THE BENEFITS OF OUR STATE
FUNDING AND SUBSIDIES WHILE AT
THE SAME TIME EXPORTING JOBS
OVERSEAS, FOR EXAMPLE, OUR SALES
AND USE TAX EXCLUSION PROGRAM
AWARDS $100 MILLION EACH YEAR TO
ELIGIBLE COMPANIES WHO HAVE CALL
CENTERS LOCATED IN CALIFORNIA
AND PROMOTE ALTERNATIVE ENERGY
AND ADVANCED TRANSPORTATION.
CALIFORNIA MUST PROTECT THE HARD
WORKING MEN AND WOMEN EMPLOYED
IN CALL CENTERS AND CORPORATIONS
SHOULD NOT REAP STATE BENEFITS
IF THEY OUTSOURCE THEIR JOBS. WE
ARE BEHIND NEW YORK,
CONNECTICUT, NEW JERSEY,
ALABAMA. NEVADA AND LOUISIANA.
THIS IS A TAXPAYER JOB AND
TAXPAYER PROTECTION MEASURE AND
PROHIBIT A CALL CENTER EMPLOYER
FROM ORDERING A RELOCATION OF
ITS CALL CENTER OR ONE OR MORE
OF ITS FACILITIES WITHIN A CALL
CENTER UNLESS THE RELOCATION IS
PROVIDED TO THE AFFECTED
EMPLOYEES. A B 61 16, OR ONE
WOULD ALSO ESTABLISHED REMEDIES
FOR CALL CENTER OF EMPLOYER
FAILURE TO PROVIDE NOTICE
REGARDING A RELOCATION. I WOULD
MAKE A CALL CENTER EMPLOYER. AH!
UM INELIGIBLE TO BE AWARDED OR
HAVE RENEWED STATE GRANTS OR
STATE GUARANTEED LOANS FOR FIVE
YEARS AND MAKE THE CALL CENTER
EMPLOYEES ARE INELIGIBLE TO
CLAIM A TAX CREDIT FOR FIVE
TAXABLE YEARS. AMENDMENTS UH,
WERE TAKEN IN THE SENATE TO KEEP
THE BILL CONSISTENT WITH
EXISTING LAW. I RESPECTFULLY.
AND OR DEBATE ON THIS ITEM. ANY
DISCUSSION OR THEY, SENATOR
DALLI. MEMBERS I RISE IN
OPPOSITION. I JUST WANT TO ASK.
WHY ARE THEY LEAVING? BECAUSE
CALIFORNIA. HAS THE LEAST
BUSINESS FRIENDLY PLACE IN THE
STATE. AND THIS BILL IS JUST
GOING TO PUNISH THEM EVEN MORE.
WHY DON'T WE DO SOMETHING THAT
ACTUALLY HELPS KEEP BUSINESSES
IN CALIFORNIA? BESIDES TRYING TO
PUNISH THEM FOR LEAVING? THE
REASON THEY'RE LEAVING IS
BECAUSE CALIFORNIA IS VERY
UNFAIR. ISN'T IT? BUSINESS I
RESPECTFULLY ASKED A NO VOTE.
ANY ADDITIONAL DISCUSSION OR
DEBATE ON THIS ITEM ANY FURTHER
DISCUSSION OF AID HEARING? SEE
NONE. SENATOR DURAZO, WOULD YOU
LIKE TO CLOSE? YES UH, ANY
BUSINESS COULD LEAVE CALIFORNIA
. WE DON'T WANT THEM TAKING OUR
TAX DOLLARS WITH THEM AND THEN

21 46 BY SOME MEMBER BAUER-KAHAN
AND ACT RELATING TO PESTICIDES.
MEMBERS I'M VERY PROUD OF HER
PRESENT A B 21 46 ON BEHALF OF
MY COLLEAGUE. REBECCA
BAUER-KAHAN. BUILD THAT WILL
HELP OUR BEE POPULATION.
CALIFORNIA BEE KEEPERS. LOST AN
UNPRECEDENTED 41% OF THEIR
COLONIES LAST YEAR. EVIDENCE IS
MOUNTING THAT THIS IS PRIMARILY
CAUSED BY PESTICIDES,
SPECIFICALLY A CLASSICPESTICIDES KNOWN AS
NEONICOTINOIDS. THE LOSS OF
POLLINATORS AND DANGERS UPWARDS
OF $11 BILLION ANNUALLY IN STATE
AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION, DRIVING
UP FOOD PRICES. THIS THIS BILL
SPECIFICALLY TARGETS NUNIK
TONIGHT AND USE IN NON
AGRICULTURAL SETTINGS FOR TURF
AND ORNAMENTAL PLANT
APPLICATIONS. ALTERNATIVES TO
NEONICS LIKE DYNAMITES ARE MUCH
LESS HARMFUL TO THE ENVIRONMENT
AND HUMAN HEALTH AND OTHER
COUNTRIES AND STATES HAVE
ALREADY RECOGNIZED THE HARM THAT
THESE NEONICS POSED TO OUR
POLLINATORS. THEY'VE TAKEN
ACTION. THIS HARMFUL CLASS OF
PESTICIDES ALREADY BANNED IN THE
EUROPEAN UNION FOR NEARLY ALL
USES AND IN SEVERAL STATES FOR
NON AGRICULTURAL USE, AND THIS
IS IMPORTANT. THE AUTHOR WORKED
REALLY HARD. SHE SHE REACHED OUT
TO MEMBERS WHO HAD RAISED
CONCERNS. AND THEY TOOK
AMENDMENTS TO THE BILL THAT HAVE
RESTRICTED THE PROVISION TO TURF
AND ORNAMENTAL PLANTS, EXEMPTING
ALL STRUCTURAL PEST CONTROL AND
FRUIT TREE USED BY CERTIFIED
APPLICATORS. AND THIS IS GONNA
RESOLVE THE KEY CONCERNS ABOUT
ASIAN CITRUS PSYLLID PEST
CONTROL THAT I KNOW ARE OF GRAVE
CONCERN. TO OUR FRIENDS IN THE
VALLEY AND FOLKS IN THE CITRUS
INDUSTRY. IT'S TIME TO
CALIFORNIA CAUGHT UP. WITH THE
REST OF THE WORLD TO ADDRESS THE
LOSS OF OUR POLLINATORS AND THE
HEALTH OF OUR ENVIRONMENT. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR A VOTE. WE
NEED DISCUSSION OR DEBATE ON
THIS ITEM. HEARING. YES, SENATOR
EDMUND. I KNOW IT'S VERY LATE,
BUT JUST AS A BEEKEEPER'S
DAUGHTER, I JUST FEEL THE NEED
TO BE ABLE TO GET UP AND SPEAK
ON THIS AS WELL. AND THERE IS A
TERRIBLE DIE OFF OF BEES THAT
HAS BEEN OCCURRING HISTORICALLY
OVER THE LAST DECADE, AND AS IT
WAS POINTED OUT THE EUROPEAN
UNION BANDS A LONG TIME AGO, I
DID LEGISLATION WHEN I FIRST
ARRIVED AND LOOKED AT SOME OF
THE VARIOUS FACTORS, AND THIS
WAS DEFINITELY ONE OF THE MAJOR
ONES. AND I WOULD RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR YOUR VOTE. THANK YOU ANY
DISCUSSION, FURTHER DISCUSSION
OR DEBATE ON THE SIDE OF CHAIN
IN CENTER. ALLEN WOULD YOU LIKE
TO CLOSE? YES. THIS IS AN ISSUE.
I'VE WORKED ON MYSELF FOR SOME

TOO MUCH TIME TRYING TO TEACH
FOUNDATIONAL SKILLS AND THEIR

MASTERED THOSE SKILLS. STUDENTS
