OF THAT HAPPEN OCCASION- WE HAVE
- THE SENATE- CENTER ATKINS- IF
YOU WOULD LIKE TO PRESENT. SB
FOUR EIGHTY SEVEN THE FLOOR'S
YOURS. THANK YOU. I'VE GOT A
HOPE THIS IS ON IT IS. THANK YOU
MISTER CHAIRMAN AND TO MY
COLLEAGUES. ARE I AM HERE AND I
WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THE
OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT SB FOUR
EIGHTY SEVEN. AND TO PUT IT
SIMPLY THIS BILL IS NEEDED TO
HELP PROTECT PROVIDERS WHO
PROVIDE ABORTION AND GENDER
AFFIRMING CARE. TO PEOPLE FROM
OUT OF STATE FROM ADDITIONAL
SANCTIONS. ARE THAT COULD BE
IMPOSED WE WORK HARD TO ENSURE
REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH CARE IS
PROTECTED IN CALIFORNIA. AND
UNFORTUNATELY THIS IS NOT WHAT
IS OCCURRING ACROSS OTHER STATES
AND ACROSS THIS COUNTRY. THE
AFTERMATH OF THE DOBBS DECISION
OVERRULING ROE NOT ONLY
ELIMINATED FIFTY YEARS OF
REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM. BUT IT
ALSO ENCOURAGE STATES TO ENACT
THEIR OWN BANS AND RESTRICTIONS.
WITH MANY PASSING LAWS TO TARGET
PROVIDERS. BY MANY OF THE
STATE'S WITH ABORTION BANS DO
HAVE LIMITED EXCEPTIONS
PROVIDERS ARE BECOMING
INCREASINGLY WARY AND
DISCOURAGED FROM ENTERING THE
REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH FIELD. AND
WITH A SHORTAGE OF ACCESS TO
CARE IN OTHER STATES CALIFORNIA
IS SEEING PEOPLE WHO NEED
ABORTION CARE COMING TO OUR
STATE BECAUSE THEY CAN'T FIND A
PROVIDER OR THEY CAN'T FIND
ANYONE WILLING TO TAKE THE RISK.
IN THEIR HOME STATE WE'RE ALSO
SEEING SOME OF OUR PROVIDERS
TRAVELING TO OTHER STATES TO
PROVIDE ABORTION CARE SERVICES
WHERE NEEDED. AND THE PURPOSE OF
SB FOUR EIGHTY SEVEN IS TO
PROTECT CALIFORNIA'S HEALTH CARE
PROVIDERS WHO ARE WILLING TO
TAKE RESPECTIVELY SHOULD CARE
AND GENDER AFFIRMING CARE IN
OTHER STATES. FROM ADDITIONAL
SANCTIONS AS WELL AS PROVIDERS
WHO PROVIDE THOSE SERVICES IN
CALIFORNIA FOUR PEOPLE FROM OUT
OF STATE. THE BILL IN ESSENCE
WOULD SHIELD PROVIDERS FROM
RETALIATION AND REPERCUSSIONS SO
THAT THERE ARE NO AND THERE IS
NO DISRUPTION IN THEIR ABILITY
TO PERFORM ABORTION CARE IN
CALIFORNIA WHERE ABORTION CARE
IS LEGAL AND ENSHRINED IN OUR
STATE CONSTITUTION. SB FOUR
EIGHTY SEVEN IS ALSO NARROWLY
CRAFTED AND NO WAY LIMITS OR
RESTRICTS OUR IMPORTANT CONSUMER
PROTECTIONS OR THE ABILITY OF
THE MEDICARE PROGRAM. TO
TERMINATE PROVIDERS FOR OTHER
NON ABORTION RELATED HEALTH CARE
REASONS. SO I THINK MOST OF YOU
KNOW I DID MANAGE CLINICS
SERVICES. AT A WOMEN'S HEALTH
CENTER MORE THAN THIRTY YEARS
AGO FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE AND
EXPERIENCE I'VE COME TO
APPRECIATE HOW IMPORTANT. IT IS
TO SUPPORT OUR PROVIDERS. OF
ABORTION CARE SERVICES AND SB
FOUR FORTY SEVEN DOES JUST THAT
FOUR EIGHTY SEVEN DOES JUST
THAT. I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR
YOUR AYE VOTE. I AM HAPPY TO
TAKE COMMENTS AND QUESTIONS AND
WITH ME TODAY- MISTER CHAIRMAN
OUR TO SEE- SPEAKERS. I'D LIKE
TO INTRODUCE- TO TESTIFY IN
SUPPORT DR TANYA SPIRITUS.
PRESIDENT ELECT OF THE
CALIFORNIA MEDICAL ASSOCIATION
AND ALSO A PRACTICING OBGYN. AND
LISA MATSUBARA WHO IS THE VICE
PRESIDENT OF POLICY AND GENERAL
COUNSEL OF PLANNED PARENTHOOD
AFFILIATES OF CALIFORNIA. THANK
YOU FOR TERM THE FLOOR IS YOURS
DR UNDERSTAND WE'RE GOING TO
ALTER WHAT I'D MENTIONED AMONG
MOMENT AGO YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE
THREE MINUTES IN THE FALL WHEN
THIS WILL HAVE ONE. YES THANK
YOU. THANK YOU THANK YOU CHAIR
ON BURKE AND THE MEMBERS OF THIS
COMMITTEE FOR ALLOWING ME TO
PRESENT TESTIMONY TODAY MY NAME
IS DR TANYA SPIRITUS I AM A
BOARD CERTIFIED OBSTETRICIAN
GYNECOLOGIST PRACTICING. AT
STANFORD HEALTH CARE I'M HERE
REPRESENTING THE CALIFORNIA
MEDICAL ASSOCIATION WHICH IS CO
SPONSORING SENATE BILL FOUR
EIGHTY SEVEN SB FORTY SEVEN
EXPANSE PROTECTION AGAINST CIVIL
ACTIONS FROM ANOTHER STATE'S LAW
BEING APPLIED. TO REPRODUCTIVE
HEALTH CARE CLINICIANS LICENSE
IN. IT INSURES THAT CALIFORNIA'S
PROVIDERS CAN CONTINUE TO CARE
FOR PATIENTS WITHOUT THE FEAR OF
ANOTHER STATE'S LAWS INTERFERING
WITH THEIR ABILITY TO SERVE
PEOPLE IN CALIFORNIA WHETHER ON
MEDICARE OR PRIVATELY INSURED.
AS A PHYSICIAN WHO PROVIDES
REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH CARE
SERVICES I CAN SAY WITH
CERTAINTY THAT THE PROTECTIONS
SB FORTY SEVEN. PROVIDES ARE OF
UTMOST IMPORTANCE AS YOU ALL
KNOW WE HAVE RECENTLY SEEN
UNPRECEDENTED LEGISLATION
ATTACKING REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS
AND GENDER AFFIRMING CARE
THROUGHOUT THE U. S. BECAUSE OF
THESE TYPES OF LAWS. WE ARE
CONFIDENT EVEN MORE OUT OF STATE
PATIENTS WILL SEEK CARE FROM
CALIFORNIA'S PROVIDERS. 29% OF
WOMEN IN THE UNITED STATES OF
REPRODUCTIVE AGE ARE LIVING IN
STATES WHERE ABORTION IS EITHER
UNAVAILABLE. OR SEVERELY
RESTRICTED HALF OF THE STATE ARE
CERTAIN OR LIKELY TO. EVENTUALLY
ENACT ABORTION BANS NOW THE ROE
VERSUS WADE HAS BEEN OVERTURNED.
WE SEE THE EFFECTS OF LIMITING
ACCESS TO ABORTION AND
REPRODUCTIVE CARE. PATIENTS ARE
FORCED TO TRAVEL. HUNDREDS OR
THOUSANDS OF MILES OR DELAYED
THERE CARE OR FACE FINANCIAL
DIFFICULTIES AND TIME AWAY FROM
WORK JUST TO UNDERGO SIMPLE AND
SAFE MEDICAL PROCEDURES. YEP
THERE ARE UNTOLD NUMBERS OF
PATIENTS WHO DO NOT HAVE THE
ABILITY TO LEAVE THEIR STATE TO
SEE CARE AND ARE ULTIMATELY
FORCED TO CONTINUE PREGNANCY IS
THAT MAYBE THREATS TO THEIR
HEALTH AND SAFETY. SEVEN STATES
HAVE INTRODUCED LEGISLATION
CRIMINALIZING A PATIENT OR
PROVIDER FOR PERFORMING OR
OBTAINING AN ABORTION. MY
PATIENTS COME TO ME WITH THE
NEED FOR SERVICE I EXT PROVIDE I
WILL NEVER INTERROGATE MY
PATIENTS ABOUT THEIR STATE OF
ORIGIN AND I KNOW MY COLLEAGUES
TREAT THEIR PATIENTS WITH THE
SAME RESPECT. OUT OF STATE
LEGISLATION THAT THREATENS OUR
LICENSE TO PRACTICE AND
CREDENTIALING AS PROVIDERS PUTS
CALIFORNIA PRACTITIONERS AT
RISK. ABORTION KAREN GENDER
AFFIRMING CARE ARE ESSENTIAL
HEALTH CARE SERVICES. CALIFORNIA
HAS ALREADY DONE SO MUCH TO BE A
SAFE HAVEN AND DESTINATION STATE
FOR PROTECTING REPRODUCTIVE
FREEDOM SB FORTY SEVEN BUILT
UPON THE STATE'S ACHIEVEMENTS.
BY EXPANDING THE PROTECTIONS FOR
ITS ABORTION AND GENDER
AFFIRMING CARE PROVIDERS. I AM
HONORED TO SERVE MY PATIENTS BUT
I CAN ONLY CONTINUE TO DO THIS
SAFELY WITH THE APPROPRIATE
PROTECTIONS. PLEASE ALLOW MY
COLLEAGUES AND I THE PEACE OF
MIND. TO FOCUS ON THE PATIENTS
SITTING IN FRONT OF US EVERY
DAY. AND TO PROVIDE THEM WITH
THE QUALITY HEALTH CARE THEY
DESERVE HELP US PROTECT ACCESS
TO HEALTH CARE. ACCESS TO
ABORTION CARE IN CALIFORNIA BY
VOTING YES ON SENATE BILL FORTY
SEVEN. THANK YOU. THANK YOU DR-

AFFILIATES OF CALIFORNIA. WE
REPRESENT SEVEN PLANNED
PARENTHOOD AFFILIATES THROUGHOUT

HUNDRED HEALTH CENTERS AND
PROVIDE OVER ONE POINT THREE
MILLION PATIENT VISITS ANNUALLY.
I'M HERE TODAY IN SUPPORT OF SB
FOUR EIGHTY SEVEN THAT BUILDS ON
THE PROTECTIONS FOR CALIFORNIA'S
HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS PUT INTO
THE PLACE PUT INTO PLACE BY THIS
LEGISLATURE LAST YEAR. SINCE THE
U. S. SUPREME COURT OVERTURN ROE
ABORTION PROVIDERS AND THEIR
PATIENTS ARE FACING AN UNCERTAIN
LANDSCAPE WITH EFFORTS IN OTHER
STATES TO BAN AND CRIMINALIZE
ABORTION. IS SAFE ESSENTIAL AND
COMMON HEALTH CARE SERVICE. AT
THE SAME TIME TRANS GENDER NON
CONFORMING AND NON BINARY PEOPLE
ARE ALSO FACING AN ONSLAUGHT OF
HOSTILE LAWS. PASSED BY MANY OF
THE SAME STATES INCLUDING LAWS
BANNING HEALTHCARE SERVICES
RELATED TO GENDER AFFIRMING
CARE. UNFORTUNATELY IT'S BECOME
CLEAR THAT CALIFORNIA MUST DO
EVERYTHING WE CAN TO ENSURE THAT
PATIENTS CAN CONTINUE TO ACCESS
COMPASSIONATE AND EVIDENCE BASED
HEALTH CARE HERE IN THE STATE.
AND PROTECT THOSE WHO PROVIDE
THAT CARE. SB FORTY SEVEN DOES
JUST THAT THIS BILL FURTHER
SHIELD PROVIDERS FROM THE
IMPACTS OF HOSTILE LAWS IN OTHER
STATES. THANK YOU TO CENTER

READY SEND RUSSELL- THANK YOU
MISTER CHAIR MEMBERS. AND THANK
THE MEMBERS ON THE COMMITTEE
STAFF FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP SB
TWENTY SEVEN CREATES AN ABILITY
FOR EMPLOYEES TO RECOVER THEIR
EARNED BUT UNPAID WAGES THE
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA'S EQUAL
PAY FOR EQUAL WORK POLICY.
REQUIRED REQUIRES VENDOR
COMPANIES THAT HAVE ONE OF THE
ESTIMATED FOUR HUNDRED SERVICE
CONTRACTS WITH YOU SEE TO PAY
THEIR COMPANY EMPLOYEES THE
WAGES AND BENEFITS EQUAL TO WHAT
YOU SEE PAYS THE SERVICE WORKERS
IN A DIRECT IT DIRECTLY EMPLOYS
WELL THE UC HAS RESPONDED TO AN
EARLIER VERSION OF THE BILL LAST
YEAR. BY INITIATING AN AUDIT
PROCESS THE IMPACTED WORKERS ARE
STILL LEFT WITH NO WAY TO
RECOVER EARNED BUT UNPAID WAGES
TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM THE BILL
REQUIRES VENDORS TO SUPPLY THE
UC AND THE APPROPRIATE JOINT
LABOR MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE.
BASIC PAYROLL INFORMATION
NECESSARY AND ANY AUDIT OUTCOMES
TO KNOW IF A VENDOR IS ACTUALLY
ABIDING BY YOU SEE POLICY. THE
BILL ALSO REQUIRES A VENDOR THE
SUPPLIER WRITTEN NOTICE TO THEIR
EMPLOYEES ABOUT THE RELEVANT
COMPENSATION RATES EACH WORKER
WILL BE TOLD HOW MUCH THEY
SHOULD BE PAID. THE BILL WOULD
ALSO ALLOW CONTRACTING VENDOR
COMPANY AN OPPORTUNITY TO
CORRECT AND TO CURE ANY
DISCREPANCIES BEFORE FACING ANY
CONSEQUENCES IF AN EMPLOYER
STILL REVIEW OUR REFUSES TO
COMPLY WITH THE UC EQUAL PAY FOR
EQUAL WORK POLICY OR CORRECT AND
CURE. EMPLOYEES WOULD THEN HAVE
THE RIGHT TO PURSUE RECOVERY OF
THEIR EARNED BUT UNPAID WAGES
FROM THE CONTRACTING VENDOR IN
COURT. THE BILL ADVANCES THE
STRIDES UC CONTINUES TO MAKE
TOWARDS THIRD PARTY VENDOR
COMPLIANCE. IT WILL NOT
INTERFERE WITH THE UC'S HIRING
ABILITY BUT IT DOES THE BRIT
DRESS THE PROBLEM THAT HAS NOT
BEEN ADDRESSED WORKERS GETTING
THEIR MONEY THE MONEY THEY
EARNED BUT HAS BEEN ON PAID. MY
WITNESS TODAY WHY IS MONICA THE
LEON WITH ASKED ME. THIRTY TWO
NINETY NINE- ALL RIGHT TAKING
HER PLACE. OKAY THIS FEATURE IS
THAT SURE THAT'S FINE GOING TO
GIVE US YOUR NAME. GOOD
AFTERNOON MY NAME IS MICHAEL
FOUGHT- I'M IS THAT THE VICE
PRESIDENT ASKED ME LOCAL THIRTY
TWO NINETY NINE. I'M HERE ON
BEHALF OF THE SERVICE WORKERS
CLEANING TOILETS CUTTING GRASS
PICKING UP TRASH COOKING FOOD.
AND CLEAN IN A HOSPITAL BED PANS
HELPING TO MAKE YOU SEE ONE OF
THE GREATEST EDUCATION RESEARCH
AND PUBLIC MEDICAL INSTITUTION.
RUN AND SIXTY. I'M ADVOCATING
FOR WORKERS WE HAVE NO
PROTECTION IF THEY WERE TO SPEAK
OUT TODAY IN FEAR OF
RETALIATION. THESE COLLEAGUES
COLLEAGUES WORK ALONG THE SIDE
UC. WELL WHO WORKS FOR THE THIRD
PARTY VENDORS AND COMPANIES
DOING BUSINESS WITH YOU SEE.
THESE WORKERS NEED A RECOVERY
TIME OF EARNED BUT UNPAID WAGES
AT. BECAUSE THEY NEED THE MONEY
AND YOU CAN HELP THEM GET IT.
YOU SEE HOW THE POLICY ENTITLED
EQUAL PAY FOR EQUAL WORK. THAT
MEANS FOR SERVICE WORK BEEN
PERFORMED AT UC. BY OUTSIDE
VENDORS THOSE WORKERS SHOULD GET
THE SAME PAY. AND BENEFITS THE
UC EMPLOYEES LIKE ME RECEIVE.
YOU SEE HAVE MADE STRIDES
STRIDES IN IMPLEMENTING THAT
POLICY WE APPLAUD THE PROGRESS.
BUT UC HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THAT
THEY ARE OFTEN LEFT TO RELY ON
VENDORS ABOUT ACTUAL WAGES AND
BENEFITS AND PAY SINCE THESE
VENDORS EMPLOYING THE WORKERS.
YOU SEE ADOPTED A RECENT AUDIT
PROCEDURES HOWEVER THIS WERE FOR
OUR PROCEDURE WON'T GET TO THE
FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM. IT WON'T
GIVE MORE WORKERS A WAY TO
RECOVER THEIR EARNED BUT UNPAID
WAGES AND BENEFITS. THIS BILL
WILL FIX THE PROBLEM. IN HUMAN
TERMS S. B. TWENTY SEVEN MEANS
THE DIFFERENCE OF GETTING THEIR
CHILD A BACKPACK FOR SCHOOL
PUTTING GAS IN THE CAR. PENDER
UTILITY BILLS OR RENT. THIS BILL
IS FAIR. BUT THE WORKERS AND
THEIR EMPLOYEES. FOR A WORKER
CAN PRESERVE RECOVERY TIME OF
UNPAID WAGES AND BENEFITS THEIR
EMPLOYER WILL HAVE AN
OPPORTUNITY TO CURE AND CORRECT
THE SHORTFALL. IF THE VENDOR
REFUSES TO CARE AND CORRECT IN A
WORKER IS PERMITTED TO RECOVER
THEIR EARNED- BUT UNPAID WAGES
IN COURT. WE ACTS FOR YOUR
CONSIDERATION THANK YOU. THANK

OPPOSITION IF YOU'RE HERE IN
OPPOSITION PLEASE BROOCH
MICROPHONE. CLOSURES GOOD
AFTERNOON US SENATOR AND- MR
TERENCE ENTERS ROSANNA KARAKTER
ELLIOTT SORRY JUST RANDOM-
REPRESENTING FIDELITY
INVESTMENTS WE ARE UNFORTUNATELY
AN OPPOSE UNLESS AMENDED
POSITION I WOULD LIKE TO THANK
THE SENATOR AND HER STAFF FOR
THE CONTINUED CONVERSATIONS I'D
LIKE TO THINK- YOU MISTER CHAIR
AND YOUR STAFF. FOR OUR
RECOGNIZING IN THE ANALYSIS THAT
THE BILL'S SCOPE IT IS LARGER
AND UNFORTUNATELY PULLS IN
FIDELITY INVESTMENTS- WITH THE
WAY THE DEFINITION OF- SERVICES
INVENTOR ARE DRAFTED- SO WE'RE
HOPEFUL THAT WE CAN- HAVE THE
BILL DRAFTED- AND HOW IT TAKES
AMENDMENTS TO NARROW THE SCOPE.
SO THAT IT IS NOT APPLYING TO
FIDELITY INVESTMENTS- FIDELITY
INVESTMENTS THE SERVICES THAT
ARE PROVIDED FOR OUR- THE
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA ARE
INVESTMENT SERVICES SO I DON'T
THINK THAT IS THE INTENDED
SCOPE- AND WITH THAT I WOULD
JUST LIKE TO AGAIN THANK THE
AUTHOR HOPEFULLY WE CAN REACH
SOME TYPE OF AGREEMENT AND- GO
NEUTRAL ON THIS BILL. AND I
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR
TIME. THEY YOU OTHER NGUYEN AND
UP. MICHAEL ARE ON THE HAFNIUM
OF. WILL HAVE A POSITION ON THE
BILL BUT IF I COULD TAKE A
MINUTE- TO VOICE SOME CONCERNS
AND CONVERSATION YOU HAD WITH
THE AUTHOR. ALL RIGHT- SHE HAS
ROSANA SAID- THE THOROUGH. BY
COMMITTEE STAFF AND- TO BE CLEAR
THE UNIVERSITY FULLY SUPPORTS
WAY TO BENEFIT PARITY. AND
ENFORCEMENT OF THAT POLICY THAT
THE REGION'S PASSED AT THE END
OF TWENTY NINETEEN. WE'RE
WORKING WITH ASKED ME TO PROVIDE
THE INFORMATION THEY NEED. TO
ENFORCE THESE PROVISIONS IN
THEIR CONTRACT AS WELL. OUR
CONCERNS ARE SIMILAR TO LAST
YEAR WE'RE WORKING WITH OUR
SUPPLIERS TO UNDERSTAND THE
IMPACT THIS MEASURE WOULD HAVE
ON. OUR ABILITY TO FULLY STAFF
OUR HOSPITALS AND CAMPUSES-
THERE'S A NATIONWIDE LABOR
SHORTAGE AND- WE SEE SOMETIMES
UP 215220% VACANCY RATES. SO IF
THERE'S A CHILLING EFFECT WHERE
VENDORS ARE AFRAID TO WORK WITH
UNIVERSITY FOR FEAR THE
LITIGATION THAT BECOMES. A
CHALLENGE FOR US OPERATIONALLY-
WE ALSO HAVE CONCERNS- AS THE
ANALYSIS POINTS OUT. THAT THE
SCOPE IS TOO BROAD IN THE
DEFINITIONS OF SERVICES AND
CONTRACTS. AND WE KNOW WE HAVE
THIRTY SEVEN OTHER BARGAINING
UNITS THIRTY FIVE OF WHICH DON'T
HAVE A WAY TO BENEFIT PARITY
POLICIES SO. GETTING SOME
CLARITY THERE AND OPPOSITION
WITH THE AUTHOR. IS INDICATED
THAT'S NOT THE INTENT SO-
HOPEFULLY WE CAN FIX THAT- IN
THE NEAR FUTURE. AND FINALLY I
WOULD MENTION- AS DOCTOR SAID WE
ARE WORKING ON OUR AUDITS- THAT
SHOULD BE AVAILABLE TO THE
PUBLIC AND TO ALL OF YOU ON
APRIL FIFTEENTH. WHEN WE SEE
WHAT IF ANY COMPLIANCE GAPS
ENFORCEMENT GAPS EXIST. FROM THE
AUDIT I THINK WE'LL BE ABLE TO
HAVE A MORE COMPLETE
CONVERSATION ABOUT WHAT IF ANY
REMEDIES ARE NECESSARY AND
STATUTES SO- THANKS. AND ALREADY
THANK YOU VERY MUCH. OUR ANYONE
ELSE UP. SINGLE APPROACH TO
MICROPHONE- LESTER THE PHONE
LINES MODERATE IF YOU WOULD
QUEUE UP THOSE IN SUPPORT AND
OPPOSITION TO. S. B. A. TWENTY
SEVEN. TO PROVIDE PUBLIC COMMENT
IN SUPPORT OR OPPOSITION TO SB
TWENTY SEVEN PLEASE PRESS ONE
THEN ZERO AT THIS TIME. AND WE
HAVE ONE COMMENT COMING THROUGH
ONE MOMENT PLEASE WHILE WE
PROVIDE THEM WITH THEIR LINE
NUMBER.
THE ON BEHALF CALIFORNIA SCHOOL
EMPLOYEES ASSOCIATION AND FROM
SUPPORT THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
AND MISTER CHAIR THERE ARE NO
FURTHER COMMENT AT THIS TIME ALL
RIGHT LET ME BRING IT BACK TO
COMMITTEE QUESTIONS BY COMMITTEE
MEMBERS- YES THURMOND. I THANK
THE AUTHOR FOR THIS I THINK IT'S
IMPORTANT BILL BUT I JUST WANTED
TO FOLLOW UP ON SOME OF THE
OPPOSITION AYE AYE. AS STATION
ANALYSIS YOUR INTENT IS NOT TO
SWEEP UP. VENDORS LIKE FIDELITY
AND I ASSUME IT'S SAFE IT'S SAFE
TO PRESUME THAT YOU WILL
CONTINUE WORKING AS HE ALWAYS
HAD DONE WITH THE STAKEHOLDERS
TO TRY TO CLEAN UP THE BILL'S
MOVES FOR. TH YES US THANK YOU
A- MEMBER IBM IT'S WE DO NOT
INTEND TO INCLUDE OF FIDELITY-
OR THE SERVICES THAT THEY
PROVIDE IT'S PRETTY CLEAR I
THINK OF FOR US ALTHOUGH YOU
KNOW I UNDERSTAND. IF THEY HAVE
A CONCERN THEY SHOULD RAISE IT-
THAT THROUGHOUT THE BILL THERE'S
REFERENCE TO OF THE UNIVERSITY
POLICY BEING THE WILL OF THE WAY
THAT THEY DECIDE THE SCOPE OF
WHO'S COVERED AND WHO'S NOT SO
IT'S AT LEAST SIX OR SEVEN EIGHT
TIMES WHEN UNIVERSITY POLICIES
REFERRED TO. SO I THINK THAT IS-
AS AN IMPORTANT CONSIDERATION-
FIDELITY IS NOT PERFORMING THE
WORK FOR THE UNIVERSITY OF
CALIFORNIA AS COVERED IN THEIR
POLICY SO IN OUR OPINION THE
BILL DOES NOT APPLY TO THEM
DESPITE OF THAT YES WHERE WILL
WILL WORKING. OUT WILL CONTINUE
TO WORK WITH FIDELITY AND WITH A
COMMITTEE OFFER ANY KIND OF-
CLARIFICATION WE COULD GIVE I
APPRECIATE THAT AND WITH THAT I
WHAT ONE SECOND THANK YOU
CENTERS ACROSS SO I HAVE TO GO-
TEN TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE FOR
JUST A FEW MOMENTS I'M GONNA
TURN OVER THE GAVEL TO MY
CAPABLE AND TALENTED COLLEAGUES-
SENATOR WELCOME YOU BACK IN JUST
A LITTLE WHILE. I WELL THANK YOU
SENATOR AS A FOR THAT- IN WITH
THAT I WOULD MOVE THE BILL I
WILL BE SUPPORTING IT. SENATOR
ALAN. I'M I'M I'M ALSO GOT THE
SAME CALL FROM. SECULAR AND OVER
THERE TO- BUT I APPRECIATE YOUR
YOUR ANSWER TO THE SENTIMENTS
OF. OUR QUESTIONS- I. I'M I'M
I'M YOU KNOW I THINK DOES HE RAN
A SIMILAR BILL LAST YEAR THAT
WAS VETOED AND LARGELY BASED ON
THE IDEA THAT THIS THOUGHT IT
WAS COMING. I'M SO IN SOME
RESPECTS THE BILL'S A LITTLE
PREMATURE THE FLIP SIDE IS OF
COURSE YOU KNOW THAT IT'S COMING
IN LESS THAN A MONTH AND YOU
NEED TO HAVE A VEHICLE TO.
RESPOND TO WHATEVER- YOU KNOW.
THE ISSUES COME OUT OF THE AUDIT
SO I GUESS I WOULD I JUST- I.
SOON THAT. COME TO A LARGE
EXTENT THE FUTURE OF THIS BILL
IS GOING TO BE DETERMINED BY THE
FINDINGS. ARE THAT COME OUT OF
THE- THE AUDIT AND ASSUMING
THAT'S THE- CASE I'M I'M HAPPY
TO SUPPORT THE BILL TODAY BUT-
YEAH I THINK THAT AUDIT IS GOING
TO HAVE TO. YOU KNOW REALLY HELP
TO INFORM WHERE WE GO ON THIS. I
IMPORTANT POLICY AREA. IF I
COULD JUST. SAY SOMETHING. THANK
YOU THANK YOU- WE APPRECIATE
THAT YOU SEE HAS- YOU KNOW TAKEN
THIS AS ANOTHER STEP. UP TO TRY
TO ADDRESS OUR CONCERNS. THE
AUDIT DOES NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUE
OF ENFORCEMENT AND COMPLIANCE.
AND SO WELL I THINK IT'S AN
IMPORTANT TOOL. IT DOES NOT GET
TO THE FUNDAMENTAL ISSUE OF
ENFORCEMENT AND COMPLIANCE AND
SO. WE'RE HOPEFUL TO BE ABLE TO
MOVE ON WITH WHAT REALLY MATTERS
TO THOSE WORKERS AND THAT IS TO
GET PAID. THANK YOU. IF THEY ARE
CENTER ALLEN. I'M OKAY SO COULD
YOU JUST GIVE ME ONE MORE
CLARITY AS TO- IT IS IT'S- A
THREE YEAR. HE WAS I MEAN IT IS
IT. SO THAT SO WHAT WHAT'S YOUR
THE I GUESS THAT THE GOVERNOR
HAD DIRECTLY REFERRED TO THE
AUDIT AND THE AUDIT. HI AND.
ASSEMBLY TRYING TO READ THE
GOVERNOR'S VETO MESSAGE HERE.
MIDDLETON WE ABOUT ENFORCING
THEIR OWN POLICIES THAT WE'D-
AGREED TO AS PART OF THAT WHOLE
NEGOTIATION COMING OUT OF AC
FOURTEEN RIGHT SO TO WHAT I'M
SORRY SO WHAT WOULD YOU JUST
TELL ME EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE-
WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT TO WHAT
EXTENT WHERE'S THAT WHERE'S
AUDIT CAN BE INSUFFICIENT TO
ADDRESS THE M. THE POLICY
ENFORCEMENT. THE PAUL THE AUDIT
IS NOT AN ENFORCEMENT MECHANISM
FOR PEOPLE WHO DID NOT GET PAID
WHAT THEY SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN
PAID SO ARE WE THINK THOUGHT IT
ISN'T A GOOD TOOL TO HAVE IN WE
APPLAUD YOU SEE FOR. INCLUDING
THAT- HOWEVER IT DOES NOT GET TO
THE FUNDAMENTAL ISSUE OF GETTING
PAID FOR- WAGES THAT THEY'VE
EARNED BUT HAVE NOT RECEIVED
PAYMENT FOR. SO AGAIN I MEAN
GOD'S GONNA PROVIDE DIDN'T IT'S
A GOOD THING BUT IT'S WE STILL
HAVE TO GET TO IN ADDITION TO
THE AUDIT WE STILL HAVE TO GET
TO THE ISSUE OF- PAYING THOSE
WORKERS WHAT THEY WERE NOT PAID
. RIGHT BECAUSE THIS IS THE IT'S
NOT IT'S LOOKING TO PROVIDE DATA
TO SEE WHERE THEIR LAPSES OF
ENFORCEMENT RIGHT THAT'S WHICH
IS A WHICH IS ABOUT GETTING
PEOPLE PAID RIGHT. WELL IT WILL
TELL YOU WHERE THE- WHAT WHO
HASN'T BEEN PAID MAYBE I'M NOT
EXACTLY SURE WHAT'S GOING TO
COME OUT OF THE AUDIT. BUT AGAIN
WE'RE LOOKING FOR COMPLIANCE AND
THE AUDIT RIGHT NOT A COMPLIANCE
TOOL IT HELPS. BUT IT'S NOT THE
ACTUAL COMPLIANCE. RIGHT IT'S
NOT A DISTANT. YES GOOD
INFORMATION ALL RIGHT OKAY ALL
RIGHT SO THIS IS A TO BE
CONTINUED- CONVERSATION BUT-
THANK YOU. THANK YOU. I GOTTA
REMEMBER TRANSPORTATION. THANK
YOU CENTER ALAN CENTER ASHBY.
YEAH SO FIRST OF ALL JUST THANK
YOU TO SENATOR ALSO I KNOW
YOU'VE BEEN. REALLY A GOOD
AUTHOR FOR THIS BILL TALK TAKING
IN A LOT OF INFORMATION A LOT OF
INPUT AND I'VE HEARD FROM FOLKS
ABOUT IT AS WELL. I'M GONNA VOTE
FOR IT TODAY IN COMMITTEE BUT I
WANT TO RESERVE MY FUTURE VOTE
TO SEE WHAT THE AUDIT SAYS AND I
THINK LIKE SENATOR ALLEN SAID
HOPEFULLY WE GET. IT THAT'S NOT
AND THOUGHT IT'S GOING TO CHANGE
ANYTHING BUT AT LEAST IT WOULD
GIVE US THE INFORMATION. THAT
MIGHT INFORM CHANGES TO THE BILL
OR- CHANGES OF OPINION ABOUT THE
BILL BUT I THINK IS IMPORTANT
HAVE THE AUDIT INFORMATION I
ALSO THINK THIS IS A CRITICALLY
IMPORTANT DISCUSSION AND I'M
GLAD YOU BROUGHT FORWARD SO.
YOU'LL HAVE MY AYE VOTE TODAY
BUT I'LL BE LOOKING WITH A KEEN
EYE WITH THE AUDIT SAYS AS WELL.
THANK YOU. THERE WILL COULD YOU
LIKE TO MAKE A COMMENT YES. MY
PRIVATE OF HIS CHAIR. I SAW THIS
BILL IN LABOR I LAID I LAID OFF
IT IN IN LABOR AGAIN BECAUSE OF
THE AUDIT. THIS IS BEEN A
ONGOING ISSUE AND I'M NOT
SYMPATHETIC TO THE UC CAUSES SO
WE'LL SEE HOW SO I'M REALLY
AFTER TODAY BUT I RESERVE THE
RIGHT TO VOTE FOR IT. AS WE
PROCEED THROUGH BASED UPON THE

YOU MISTER CHAIR MEMBERS
REPRESENTING S. B. TWO NINETY
SIX PERTAINING TO IN VEHICLE
CAMERAS. INCREASING IN SOCIETY
TODAY WE FIND OURSELVES BEING
RECORDED OR SURVEILLED WITH NO
IDEA OF HOW THE IMAGES WILL BE
USED. NOW IT ISSUED THE BACKUP
CAMERAS AND BLIND SPOT
MONITORING SYSTEMS NEW CARS ARE
BEING EQUIPPED WITH INWARD
FACING CAMERAS THAT MONITOR
IMPAIRED OR DISTRACTED DRIVING.
WALL THERE ARE ESSENTIAL TRAFFIC
SAFETY BENEFITS DERIVED FROM
MONITORING IMPAIRED AND
DISTRACTED DRIVING BEHAVIOR
THERE IS ALSO INCREASING
CONCERNS SUCH CAMERAS COULD BE
EXPLOITED BY DATA BROKERS AND
OTHER THIRD PARTIES WHO WOULD
MANIPULATE. AND SELL THE IMAGES.
MY BILL WOULD PREVENT THAT
GIVING THE CONSUMER MORE CONTROL
OVER PERSONAL INFORMATION
RECORDED BY THEIR IN VEHICLE
CAMERAS. SB TWO NINETY SIX WOULD
PLACE RESTRICTIONS ON THE
RETENTION AND TRANSFER VIDEO
RECORDINGS WHILE STILL
PERMITTING IMPORTANT. DRIVER
SAFETY INFORMATION TO BE
ANALYZED AND USED FOR TRAFFIC
SAFETY PURPOSES IT WOULD MAKE
CALIFORNIA THE FIRST STATE IN
THE COUNTRY TO GIVE CONSUMERS
MEANINGFUL CONTROL OVER THESE
TYPE IN VEHICLE CAMERAS. A NOT
CO HERNANDEZ SINCE THE VEENA
TUKAR ARE HERE WITH ME TODAY IN
SUPPORT OF THE BILL. MR NANDO'S
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR YES YOUR
NAME IS ON BEHALF OF THE
CONSUMER FEDERATION OF
CALIFORNIA RESPONSES THOSE STARS
FROM THE STAIRS. EXCUSE ME- YOU
KNOW WE WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON
THIS ISSUE- FOR A COUPLE OF
YEARS PRIMARILY BECAUSE THERE IS
AN INCREASE. IN THE USE OF IN
CABIN CAMERAS AND OFTENTIMES
CONSUMERS ARE UNAWARE. THAT THE
CAMERAS ARE THEIR NUMBER ONE.
NUMBER TWO THERE ARE NO
REGULATIONS IN PLACE A VERY FEW
REGULATIONS IT COULD BE ARGUED
THAT MAY BE IN PLACE. TO CONTROL
THE VIDEOS THAT ARE TAKEN
INSIDE. THE VEHICLE SO WHAT WE
DO HERE THE DALLAS AT ONE. THE
CONSUMERS MUST BE NOTIFIED THAT
THERE IS A CAP- IN CABIN CAMERA.
TOO THEY MUST HAVE THE ABILITY
TO SAY NO. TO HAVE CONSENT ON
WHETHER OR NOT TO SHARE IT. MR
WE REALLY LIMIT THAT AND IT'S
REALLY CRITICAL BECAUSE THERE
ARE SOME CONSUMERS WHO MAY WANT.
THE VIDEO IN THEIR- VEHICLE AND
THERE MAY BE OTHERS WHO DO NOT
WANT. THIS IS TESLA THIS IS
LINCOLN THIS IS A NUMBER OF
OTHER MANUFACTURERS THAT ARE
INSTALLING THESE CAMERAS WE'RE
AND A LOT OF FOLKS ARE UNAWARE
SO THIS BILL REALLY MOVED
FORWARD. ESTABLISHED A FORMAT
AND A PROTOCOL FOR CONSUMERS TO
KNOW. AND WE THINK IT'S EASY FOR
THE MANUFACTURER TO COMPLY AND
WE THINK IT'S WORKABLE FOR THE
DEALER ALSO TO COMPLY FOR THOSE
REASONS WE ASK FOR YOUR SUPPORT
. THANK YOU MR NANDO'S. THIS IS
YOUR MEMBERS SITTING ATTACK OR
THE CONSUMER ATTORNEYS OF
CALIFORNIA HERE IN STRONG
SUPPORT- AS YOU TECHNOLOGIES
EMERGED IMPORTANT THAT OUR LAWS
AND TRY TO KEEP UP. WITH THE HAS
BEEN A PROUD SUPPORTER OF THESE
EFFORTS AND INCLUDING OUR FIRST
WITH SENATOR DODD TO UPDATE OUR
DATA BREACH LAWS. THIS IS
ANOTHER STEP IN THAT DIRECTION
TO ENSURE PRIVACY IN YOUR OWN
VEHICLES. THREE LETTERS OF THE
COMMENTS OF SENATOR DON THE
SPONSOR WE ARE ALSO WORKING WITH
BOTH THE SPONSOR THE AUTHOR TO
MAKE SURE THAT THE LANGUAGE IN
THE BILL THAT ALLOWS ACCESS FOR
LITIGATION PURPOSES IT'S CLEAR.
THE FOR THOSE REASONS WE ARE DR-
THANK YOU. OUR OTHERS IN THE
ROOM IN SUPPORT PLEASE POCH MIKE
FENCING KNOWN APPROACH THE
MICROPHONE. ALLISTER IN THE
OPPOSITION. IF YOU'RE IN
OPPOSITION TO SB TWO NINE SIX
PLEASE APPROACH THE MICROPHONE.
GOOD AFTERNOON MR CHAIRMAN OF
THE COMMITTEE JOHN MOFFETT ON
THE ON BEHALF OF THE ALLIANCE
FOR AUTOMOTIVE INNOVATION WHERE
THE TRADE ASSOCIATION FOR ALL
THE MAJOR AUTOMAKERS- IN THE
UNITED STATES. WE ARE OPPOSED TO
THE BILL JUST AS WE WERE OPPOSED
TO THE BILL LAST LAST YEAR THIS
IS BASICALLY THE SAME BILL THAT
THE LEGISLATURE SAW LAST YEAR
THAT WAS VETOED BY THE GOVERNOR-
IT FOR. FOR REASONS THAT THAT
WE- CONTINUE TO FAIL TO
UNDERSTAND- THE SPONSORS OF THE
BILL SAY THAT NO RULES APPLY TO
THE INFORMATION GATHERED THAT'S
NOT TRUE. THE CALIFORNIA PRIVACY
ACT APPLIES TO THESE CAMERAS.
THAT ARE USED FOR A NUMBER OF
SAFETY REASONS. YOU WANT TO TALK
ABOUT. INCREASE NOTIFICATION WE
ARE ABSOLUTELY OPEN TO THAT YOU
WANT TO TALK ABOUT A PROHIBITION
ON ADVERTISEMENT WE'RE OPEN TO
THAT YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT A
PROHIBITION ON SALE. WE ARE OPEN
TO THAT BUT AS THE BILL IS
DRAFTED. IT SWITCHES THE PRIVACY
ACTS OPT OUT- MECHANISM TO AN
OPT IN MECHANISM. IT DEFINES
PERSONAL INFORMATION IN A
DIFFERENT WAY IN THIS BILL THAT
IT DOESN'T CONSUMER. THE
CALIFORNIA PRIVACY ACT THIS BILL
USES CONSUMER. DEVICES I THOUGHT
THE BILL WAS ABOUT CARS WIRE
WIRED THESE DEVICES IN THE
DEFINITION OF PERSONAL
INFORMATION IN THE BILL. LAST WE
DON'T THINK IT ADDRESSES THE
GOVERNOR'S VETO BECAUSE IT PUTS
THE- THE SAFETY INFORMATION IN
THE OPT OUT. PART OF THE BILL-
ISSUES MANY OFTEN PART OF THE
BILL. IF YOU'RE AN ALCOHOLIC
BUYING A CAR AND YOU KNOW THAT
THE CAR WILL SHUT OFF IF YOU'RE
DRUNK DRIVING. ARE YOU GOING TO
OPT IN. TO THAT INFORMATION OR
YOU CAN OPT OUT MY GUESS IS
YOU'RE GOING TO OPT OUT AND SO
WE THINK IT'S SUFFERS THE SAME
PROBLEMS THAT LAST YEAR'S BILL
HAD. WE ASK FOR A NOBLE. THANK
YOU. THANK YOU MR CHAIRMAN
MEMBERS DYLAN HOFFMAN ON BEHALF
OF TECHNO- WE ALSO RESPECTFULLY
OPPOSE SB TWO NINETY SIX ONE MY
COMMENTS WITH MY COLLEAGUES-
JUST ONE EXPAND ON A COUPLE OF
POINTS SIMILARLY. WE DON'T
OPPOSE THE BILL'S PROHIBITIONS
ON ADVERTISING OR THE SALE OF
THIS INFORMATION- WE ALSO
BELIEVE IN INCREASED CONSUMER
DISCLOSURES AND I THINK THOSE
ARE PROVISIONS ARE APPROPRIATE I
THINK. JUST THE PROVISIONS
RELATED TO THE SHARING OF THIS
INFORMATION COULD USE ADDITIONAL
TAILORING- AS WELL AS THE ANTI
DISCRIMINATION- SECTIONS WE KNOW
WHY THAT'S IN THERE HOWEVER I
THINK AS APPLIED- COULD
POTENTIALLY- MEAN THAT YOU KNOW
WE'RE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE THE
SAME LEVEL OF PRODUCT AND
SERVICE- BUT IF A- CONSUMER
FAILS TO OPT IN. AND RE THEY'RE
NOT ABLE TO UPDATE THE CAMERAS
OR WERE NOT ABLE TO OFFER THE
SERVICE ENTIRELY WHETHER IT'S-
YOU KNOW DROWSY DRIVING
PREVENTION- WERE ARGUABLY NOT
ABLE TO PROVIDE THE SAME LEVEL
OF SERVICE AND SO WOULD
THEREFORE BE. LIABLE THE SUIT
UNDER THAT PROVISION SO JUST
WANT TO POINT THAT OUT AS WELL
AND LOOK FORWARD TO CONTINUING
OUR WORK WITH THE AUTHOR'S
OFFICE. AT TO CONTINUE REFINED
THOSE POINTS AND- ADDRESS SOME
OF THE NEED FOR THIS BILL SOME
OF THOSE REASONS WE RESPECTFULLY
OPPOSE THANK YOU NAME IS OFTEN.
GOOD AFTERNOON MISTER CHAIR
MEMBERS WILL NOT BE ALLOW ME ON
BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA CHAMBER
OF COMMERCE ELINE ARE COMMENTS

ELSE HERE IN THE ROOM. ARE
SEEING NO ONE ELSE IN OPPOSITION
WAS TURNED TO THE PHONE LINES.
MATTER IF YOU QUEUE UP THOSE ON
THE PHONE LINES BOTH IN SUPPORT
AND OPPOSITION TO SB. TWO NINE
SIX. TO PROVIDE PUBLIC COMMENT
IN SUPPORT OR OPPOSITION. S. B.
TWO NINE SIX. PLEASE PRESS ONE
THEN ZERO AT THIS TIME. AND WE
HAVE NO COMMENT OVER THE PHONE
ALL RIGHT. SPRINGBOK COMMITTEE
CINNAMON. COMMISSIONER ASKED A
QUESTION OF THE OPPOSITION AS-
AT ALL ALL RIGHT THIS ONE FROM
THE OTHER DEALERS. SO I HAVE TO
CONFESS I DID NOT I WAS NOT
AWARE THEIR INTERNAL FACING
CAMERAS IS THIS SOMETHING THAT
IF I WERE TO BUY ONE OF THESE
CARS. I CAN OPT OUT OF WHEN I
PURCHASE IT AND IS IT SOMETHING
THAT'S CLEARLY COMMUNICATED TO
ME THAT THESE CAMERAS ARE. YEAH
THERE THERE'S GOING TO BE
NOTICED IN YOUR OWNER'S MANUAL
THAT THE VEHICLE NOT ALL
VEHICLES HAVE THESE. THE
NATIONAL TRANSPORTATION SAFETY
BOARD HAS MADE A RECOMMENDATION
THAT ALL VEHICLE YOU'RE SAYING
IT'S AN INCH OWNER'S MANUALS NOT
IN LIKE IT'S NOT PRESENTED UP
FRONT TO ME SO I MIGHT NOT I
MIGHT VERY WELL PURCHASE ONE OF
THESE CARS AND NOT BE AWARE THAT
AS INTERNAL FACING CAMERAS. I'M
WITH AUTO MAKERS OKAY I THOUGHT-
DEALERS THE FOLKS DOING IT AND
AGAIN WE DON'T OBJECT TO THE
NOTIFICATION PROVISIONS OF THE
BILL BUT I GUESS LET ME JUST
TAKE IT BACK WHY SHOULDN'T IT BE
OPT OUT I MEAN IF THAT'S A BIG
ARE OFTEN. BECAUSE LIKE IN THIS
IS NOT INSTAGRAM I'M NOT POSTING
PICTURES OF MYSELF I'M NOT
PURCHASING A CAR TYPICALLY DO
LIKE POST MYSELF ON SOCIAL MEDIA
OR TO SHARE. YOU KNOW FOOTAGE OF
MYSELF I'M PURCHASING A CAR TO
DRIVE RIGHT. SURE YES YOU'RE
PURCHASING A CAR TO DRIVE WITH
TECHNOLOGY THAT THE SAFETY
FEATURES AND OTHER FEATURES YOU
CAN'T ADVERTISE GUNS ARMOR LIKE
ONCE A PURCHASE A CAR. WITH THE
INTENT OF HAVING THEM THEIR
INFORMATION BROADCAST. THIS
INFORMATION ISN'T BROADCAST OR
SHARED WITH MANUFACTURE SHARED
WITH WHOEVER ELSE MIGHT IF IT
IMPROVES THE SAFETY FEATURES OF
THE VEHICLE I THINK YES. I WILL
TELL YOU I'VE I'VE PURCHASED A
FEW CARS MY LIFE AND- I. WON I
HAD NO IDEA THESE CAMERAS
EXISTED I HAD NO IDEA THEY READ
TAKING FOOTAGE OF ME. AND I
THINK THAT'S A REAL PROBLEM IF
THAT'S NOT BEING CLEARLY
COMMUNICATED TO PEOPLE AT THE
POINT OF SALE. BUT I GUESS I
DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT THE
ARGUMENT IS FOR NOT. ALLOWING AN
OPT IN. IF THIS AGAIN THE
PRIMARY PURPOSE PURPOSE OF A CAR
YES IS WE WANT TO BE SAFE. BUT
IT'S TO DRIVE A CAR RIGHT WHEN I
PURCHASED THE CAR NOT PURCHASING
IT. TO TAKE SURREPTITIOUS
FOOTAGE. RIGHT LIKE I IMAGINE
YOUR AVERAGE CONSUMERS NOT
PURCHASING A CAR WITH THAT MIND.
AND AGAIN WE DON'T OBJECT TO THE
NOTIFICATION PROVISIONS OF THE
BILL WE DON'T OBJECT TO THE BAN
ON SALE WRITTEN A CHECK TO THE
BAN ON ADVERTISING. I THINK
YOU'RE THINKING THAT THE CAMERAS
ARE TAKING PICTURES OF YOU AND
SENDING IT TO THE AUTOMAKER
TAKING VIDEO FOOTAGE OF THEIR
AND THEIR- THEIR DIGITIZED
IMAGES THAT. ARE USED TO HELP
IMPROVE THE TECHNOLOGY AND
SOFTWARE FOR THOSE SAFETY
FEATURES. THAT'S ALL WE'RE
TRYING TO PRESERVE HERE. AND
SAYING THAT. YOU KNOW THAT
INFORMATION AGAIN CONSISTENT
WITH CALIFORNIANS FOR CONSUMER
PRIVACY ACT WHICH MEANS IT'S-
IT'S- DE IDENTIFIED AND
AGGREGATED SO THAT IT CAN BE
USED TO IMPROVE THE SITE. THE
SAFETY SOFTWARE OF THE VEHICLE.
FOR FROM OUR PER. WE AT THAT AND
SAY OH. IF IT'S CONSISTENT WITH
CALIFORNIA LAW IN CALIFORNIA'S
PRIVACY LAW. WHICH APPLIES TO
PHONES TELEVISIONS ALL OF THE
OTHER CONSUMER DEVICES THAT ARE
OUT THERE. WE THINK AND- AN OPT
OUT. APPROACH IS THE APPROPRIATE
APPROACH CONSISTENT WITH
EXISTING LOSS OF THAT
INFORMATION CAN BE USED TO.
IMPROVE THAT TECHNOLOGY ON A
GOING FORWARD BASIS. ALL RIGHT
WELL THANK YOU FOR YOUR ANSWER.

WHICH WOULD ALLOW PROSPECTIVE
TENANTS WITH A HOUSING VOUCHER
TO SUBMIT ALTERNATIVE DOCUMENTS
DEMONSTRATE THEIR ABILITY TO PAY
IN LIEU OF A CREDIT SCORE.
ISRAEL NO YOU GO TO RENT
SOMETHING AND YOU GOT TO GIVE UP
YOUR CREDIT SCORE SO WHEN I
FIRST LEARNED ABOUT THIS I WAS
WET WITH MY- HOUSING DIRECTOR
WHO'S HERE TO TESTIFY WITH ME
TODAY. AND THEY TALKED ABOUT THE
DIFFICULTY OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE
VOUCHERS TO EVEN BE ABLE TO USE
THOSE VOUCHERS I THINK LET LESS
THAN HALF OF THE ONES THAT WE
HAVE PROVIDED FOR PEOPLE TO GET
HOUSING. GO UNUSED BECAUSE
OFTENTIMES THE PEOPLE GO BEFORE-
TO TRY TO APPLY THEY RUN A
CREDIT SCORE WELL IF YOU'VE BEEN
HOMELESS IF YOU'VE HAD. A REALLY
HARD LIFE YOU PROBABLY DON'T
HAVE A GREAT CREDIT SCORE YOU
MIGHT HAVE A STAIN ON YOUR
CREDIT SCORE DAY LUNCH I DROPPED
OFF MY JACKET I HAVE A STAIN ON
MY JACKET JUST AS SOME PEOPLE
HAVE A STAIN ON THEIR CREDITS TO
SCORE. IT'S NOT SOMETHING YOU
WANT BUT IT'S SOMETHING THAT'S
PART OF LIFE THAT HAPPENS
SOMETIMES THIS BILL SIMPLY SAYS
AND YOU HEARD LAST YEAR GOT ALL
THE WAY THROUGH THIS HOUSE WITH
BIPARTISAN SUPPORT- GOT A LITTLE
BIT HELD UP A LITTLE BIT IN THE
ASSEMBLY. THIS SIR ONLY SAYS AND
AGAIN ABOUT YOU'RE GOING TO PAY.
TO IN 1780% OF A PERSON'S RENT.
THIS JUST SAYS THAT THEY CAN
PROVIDE ALTERNATIVE INFORMATION
COULD BE PAY STUBS COULD BE
THEIR LAST PERSON THEY RENTED
FROM- TO BE ABLE TO SAY YEAH I
KNOW MY CREDIT SCORE IS NOT
GREAT. BUT I. YOU KNOW MY LIFE
IS TURNED AROUND I HAVE A HOUSE.
HOUSING VOUCHER I HAVE MY KIDS.
THE GOVERNMENT'S GOING TO PAY
THIS PORTION. AND I CAN PAY THIS
PORTION BASED ON. MERE MY PAY OR
WHATEVER ELSE. LET'S ALL THIS
BILL DOES IS ALLOW PEOPLE A
SHOT. WHO MIGHT HAVE A STAIN ON
THEIR CREDIT. THE NEW HAVE TO
CARRY THAT WITH THE RESEARCH.
AND BE A TO GET HOUSE. WE
ADDRESS OUR HOMES THIS ISSUE.
OUR HOUSING ISSUE THIS IS ONE
MORE TOOL TO PUT A LITTLE BIT OF
COMPASSION- AND- A VARIATION. IN
AND WHAT. LANDLORDS CAN LOOK AT.
IN WOULD BE TODAY HAVE PETER
RAGSDALE WITH MY HOUSING
AUTHORITY ALL RIGHT. MISDIRECT
STILL. A GOOD AFTERNOON THANK
YOU CHAIRED MEMBERS THANK YOU
CENTER EGGMAN FOR BRING FORWARD
SB TWO SIXTY SEVEN. THE HOUSING
CHOICE VOUCHER PROGRAM FORMALLY
KNOWN AS SECTION EIGHT. OF
STRUGGLING CALIFORNIANS AFFORD.
RENT WHICH WE KNOW IS INCREDIBLY
CHALLENGING IN IN CALIFORNIA.
30% OF HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHERS
NATIONALLY OR IN CALIFORNIA
REPRESENTING BY THREE HUNDRED
AND FORTY THOUSAND VOUCHERS.
THAT WOULD LIKE TO SEE DEPLOYED.
IN OUR IN OUR STATE. FACTORS
TYPICALLY SUPPORT 70% OF
HOUSEHOLDS. RENT PAID RELY LEAPT
PARTICIPATING LANDLORDS. FACTORS
ARE INTENDED TO KEEP FAMILY
HOUSE FOR AS LONG AS IT TAKES.
AND IF THIS MEANS OF INCOME GOES
DOWN PAYMENTS GO UP IN THE
FAMILIES PREVENTED. FROM FALLING
INTO FINANCIAL SPIRAL OR FORCE
HOMELESSNESS. HE'S HOUSEHOLDS
ARE OFTEN WAS WRONG CAL. 67% OF
ACTRESSES THAT HOUSEHOLD INCLUDE
THE DISABLED SENIORS AND
CHILDREN. DOCTORS ARE PRIMARY
TOOL TO BRING THE MOST VALUABLE
CALIFORNIANS OF OUR STREETS AND
STOP YOU HOUSEHOLDS. FROM ADDING
TO THE STATE'S HOMELESSNESS
CRISIS. UNFORTUNATELY THE NEED
FOR HOUSING SUBSIDIES GREAT
GREATLY OUTSTRIPS SUPPLY. TO GET
A VOUCHER WAIT TIMES ARE OFTEN
TWO TO FIVE YEARS OR LONGER.
FUNDING AVAILABLE UNITS AND
LANDLORDS WILLING TO PARTICIPATE
IS PROFOUNDLY CHALLENGING FOR
BOTH HOUSING AUTHORITIES AND
VOUCHER PARTICIPANTS. LANDLORDS
ARE OFTEN RELUCTANT TO ACCEPT A
VOUCHER FOR THE FEET FOR FEAR OF
THE PERCEIVED RISK OF
ADMINISTRATIVE BURDEN OR THE
PERCEPTION OF LOW INCOME RENTERS
. FOR THE PEOPLE WE SERVE LOW
CREDIT SCORES REFLECT THE COST
OF LIVING IN THE WAGE GAP.
EIGHTY NINE HOURS OF WORK ARE
NECESSARY TO AFFORD A ONE
BEDROOM APARTMENT ON MINIMUM
WAGE IN CALIFORNIA. RECENT RENTS
HAVE ONLY EXACERBATED THE
PROBLEM ESPECIALLY FOR THE MOST
VULNERABLE. CALIFORNIANS IT'S
SILICON COUNTY LESS THAN HALF OF
THE HOUSEHOLDS ISSUE ISSUE
VOUCHER LOCATE AND ARE ACCEPTED
FOR RENTAL PROPERTY. KNOWN AS
THE VOUCHER SUCCESS RATE THIS IS
COMMON ACROSS OUR STATE. A LOW
CREDIT SCORE OR CREDIT
INVISIBILITY NEEDS TO CONSIDER
THE SUPPORT OFFERED BY THE
VOUCHER. EXPANDING HOUSING
OPPORTUNITIES FOR LOW INCOME
FAMILIES. AS FOLKS SEARCH RENT
MONEY SITS IDLE SUPPORTS IT'S
VITAL AND CANDIDLY WITH ARAFAT
THERE'S BEEN A BRIGHT SPOT WHICH
GIVES US HOPE THAT THIS IS
POSSIBLE. THAT THE AMERICAN
RESCUE PLAN CALIFORNIA REESE
RECEIVE SEVENTEEN THOUSAND
EMERGENCY HOUSING VOUCHERS IN
LATE TWENTY TWENTY ONE RECEIVING
OVER TWENTY FOUR PERCENT. OF THE
NATIONAL ALLOCATION. STATEWIDE
OUR UTILIZATION IS SIXTY SEVEN
POINT 8% REPRESENTING ELEVEN
THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED AND FORTY
TWO HOUSEHOLDS. WE'VE BEEN ABLE
TO LEASE A HUNDRED TWENTY NINE
HOUSEHOLDS IN SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY
REPRESENTING THREE HUNDRED FIFTY
SEVEN. INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE
TRANSITION FROM HOMELESSNESS.
ROGER PROGRAMS WORK AND PROVIDE
AN AMAZING PUBLIC PRIVATE
PARTNERSHIP HOUSING
AFFORDABILITY AND MOBILITY. AS
COMMUNITIES CONSIDER MORE
INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS TO SEE
VOUCHERS UTILIZED INCLUDING
LANDLORDS CENTERS OCCUPANCY LAS
PAYMENTS IN DAMAGE MITIGATION.
REMOVING THE BARRIER OF A GOOD
CREDIT HISTORY FOR LOW INCOME
FAMILIES. WILL ACTUALLY HAVE
DOLLARS TURNED ON IN CALIFORNIA
I URGE THIS COMMITTEE TO SUPPORT

AFTERNOON MR CHAIRMAN AND
MEMBERS I DEMOCRATS WITH A
CALIFORNIA APARTMENT ASSOCIATION
IN RESPECTFUL OPPOSITION WE WERE
VERY GOOD WORKING RELATIONSHIP
WITH SENATOR EGGMAN WOULD LIKE
TO CONTINUE TO DO SO I THINK
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR- TODAY IS
TO ENSURE THAT THAT INFORMATION
THAT IS PROVIDED. IS VERIFIABLE
RIGHT WE HAVE OTHER PORTIONS OF
THE CODE THAT DO PROVIDE THAT
ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED BY ANY
OTHERS- NOT INCLUDING THE
SUBSIDIES IS LEGAL AND
VERIFIABLE- SO YOU KNOW WE DO
BELIEVE IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE
INDIVIDUALS WITH THE RENT
SUBSIDY DO NOT FACE
DISCRIMINATION IN FACT WE CANNOT
DISCRIMINATE BECAUSE THEY HAVE.
A RENT SUBSIDY- SO WE WOULD LIKE
TO CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THE
CENTER TO FIND A SOLUTION TO
THAT- EVIDENCE THAT IS PROVIDED
THAT IS SEPARATE FROM THE CREDIT
REPORT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THANK YOU ALL RIGHT OTHERS IN
OPPOSITION. MR CHAIRMAN MEMBERS
RUN KINGSTON A REPRESENTING THE
A PURPOSES YOU SHORTAGE COUNTY
EAST BAY ASSOCIATION. AND THE
AFFORDABLE HOUSING MANAGEMENT
ASSOCIATION THAT LITERALLY
CATERS TO EVERY LOW INCOME-
TENANT THERE IS FOR SENIORS- AND
DISABLED. AS WELL AS THE VERY
LOW INCOME HOUSEHOLDS HERE'S OUR
CAN FULL CONCERN. IS THAT THE
INFORMATION THAT THE APPLICANTS
NOT TENET THE TENANT. APPLICANT
THAT- PROVIDES THIS INFORMATION
IS. HAS CERTAINTY AND- WE CAN
RELY ON IT AS AS REALLY CREDIBLE
INFORMATION THE TENANTS PORTION
OF A SECTION EIGHT PAYMENTS. I
THOUGHT MAYBE THAT'S WHAT WE
LOOK AT WE LOOK AT ONE THE
CERTIFICATE OR THE HOUSING
CHOICE VOUCHER AND THEN HOW MUCH
IS THE TENANTS EARNING AND HOW
MUCH CAN THEY DEVOTE. TO PAYING
RENT AS WELL AS ALL THE OTHER
OBLIGATIONS- FOR FOOD FOR A
NUMBER OF OTHER ESSENTIAL
SERVICES. AND SOMETIMES THAT.
AMOUNT IS OVERWHELMING AND WE
CAN'T QUALIFY THE TENANT BECAUSE
THEY HAVE TOO MANY FINANCIAL
OBLIGATIONS OR THEY HAVE FAILED
TO PERFORM AND OUR- NOT ABLE TO
MEET THOSE OBLIGATIONS AND WE
NEED TO HAVE THAT. OPPORTUNITY
TO DO SO WE WOULD LIKE TO ASK
THE SENATOR- TO INCLUDE AN
ADDRESS THESE VERY FACTUAL REAL
LIFE ISSUES BECAUSE OF FONG WHAT
WE FACE EACH AND EVERY DAY WHEN
THE APPLICANT COMES TO US AND
SAY WE WOULD LIKE TO. RENT FROM

NO FURTHER COMMENT AT THIS TIME
ALL RIGHTY- LET'S BRING BACK
COMMITTEE QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS
SAYING YES THERE S. B. AT THE
CENTER A MINUTE. JAI BRINGING
THIS BILL FORWARD AND I PLAN ON
SUPPORTING IT TODAY BUT I DID
THINK THAT THE VERY FIRST
SPEAKER IN OPPOSITION HAD A GOOD
POINT ABOUT MAKING SURE THAT THE
DOCUMENTS COULD BE LEGALLY
CERTIFIABLE SO THAT. APARTMENT
OWNERS AND RENTAL HOUSING OWNERS
THAT COULD RELY ON THAT
INFORMATION I LIVED IN THIS
SITUATION AS AN ADULT MYSELF I
LIVED IN LOW INCOME INCLUSIONARY
HOUSING AS A YOUNG SINGLE MOM.
AND IT WOULD HAVE BEEN HELPFUL
TO ME IF I WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE
TO SHOW MY PAY STUBS OR
SOMETHING I TO HELP OFFSET MAYBE
ABOUT CREDIT SCORE BECAUSE
CREDIT SCORES LAST A REALLY LONG
TIME. SOMETIMES UNREASONABLY
LONG AND SO IF YOU CAN IF YOU
CAN FIND THAT SOLUTION FOR THEM
TO MAKE SURE THAT THE LANDLORD
OR TENANT CAN. CAN REALLY HAVE
HAVE A LEGAL DOCUMENT THAT THEY
CAN RELY UPON BOTH OF THEM I
THINK IT WOULD HELP THE
SITUATION BUT I APPRECIATE YOU
BRING IN THIS IMPORTANT DIALOGUE
FORWARD AND I'LL BE VOTING YES
TODAY. THANK YOU. SURROUND YEAH-
I JUST LOVE TO GET A BETTER
SENSE OF HIGHER CONVERSATIONS
HAVE BEEN GOING WITH THE
OPPOSITION- YOU KNOW. I GUESS I
GUESS THE COURT. WHEN THE COURT

OBVIOUSLY THERE'S NOT A MORE
RELIABLE SECTION EIGHT. BUT YOU
KNOW YOU'RE YOU'RE YOU'RE
EXPANDING THIS TO EVERY TYPE OF
GOVERNMENT- ASSISTANCE IF YOU
KNOW QUITTING PARTIAL RIGHT SO.
YEAH YOU CAN SEE HOW IN THOSE
CONSIDERATIONS OF A CREDIT CHECK
MIGHT BE MIGHT BE USUALLY USEFUL
TOOLS I'D LIKE ANYWAY LOVE TO
KIND OF GET A SENSE OF HOW YOUR
CONVERSATION GOING WITH THEM.
YEAH WE HAVE A GREAT
RELATIONSHIP WITH THE APARTMENT
ASSOCIATION INTEND TO KEEP ON
WORKING WITH THEM WE WORK WITH
THEM THROUGH THIS LAST YEAR-
ANYTIME SOMEBODY GETS A
GOVERNMENT SUBSIDY IT MEANS THEY
THEY ARE IN NEED WHETHER IT'S
MENTAL HEALTH. WHETHER IT'S
VETERANS WHETHER IT'S SECTION
EIGHT. COMPUTER SPOKE MORE
SPECIFICALLY TO SECTION EIGHT
BUT THERE'S A LOT OF OTHER ONES
AND MOST OF THEM PAY ABOUT
SEVENTY PERCENT- AND SO WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT THAT THAT. EXTRA
30% IF SOMEONE THINKS THEY CAN
PAY IT OR NOT RIGHT SO WHEN THEY
APPLY AND THEY MAY HAVE THERE
WAS JUST A CASE. LOS ANGELES
COUNTY OF A WOMAN WHO HAD A
BANKRUPTCY TWENTY YEARS BEFORE
TWENTY YEARS AGO SHE HAD A
BANKRUPTCY AND COULD NOT FIND A
PLACE TO RENT. BECAUSE THAT WAS
STILL ON HER RECORD I JUST THINK
THERE SHOULD BE SOME REMEDY TO
THINGS LIKE THAT AND THAT'S WHAT
WE'RE TRYING TO GET TO. THE BILL
ACTUALLY USE OUR GOVERNMENT
VOUCHERS THAT WERE GIVING OUT TO
PEOPLE SO THEY CAN HAVE A PLACE
TO LIVE. AND FINE YOU KNOW AND
I. WILL BE GLAD TO WORK WITH
APARTMENT ASSOCIATION ABOUT
VERIFIABLE I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT
A NEW FROM SOMEBODY'S MOM WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT PAY STUBS OR TALK
ABOUT BANK RECORDS WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT THINGS LIKE THAT- IN A- I
DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE RESCUE BUT
WE'LL- ALL HAVE TO. LIKE FIGURE
OUT WHAT WE COULD PAY WELL WE
CAN'T PAY. EVERY MONTH AND IF
SOMEONE MAKES THINK THEY CAN
MAKE THAT 30% AND YOU KNOW AND
SOME OTHER ASSOCIATION MAY THINK
WELL BUT YOU HAVE FOOD YOU HAVE
THIS. IN THAT'S I DON'T KNOW
THAT THAT'S A TO SOMEBODY TO
DECIDE. HOW IMPORTANT HOUSING IS
TO YOU IT KIND OF FEELS LIKE AT
THE END OF THE DAY RIGHT. HOW
IMPORTANT HOUSING IS TO YOU AND
WE KNOW PEOPLE WHO HAVE
EXPERIENCED HOMELESSNESS AND-
TRAUMA AND LOSS. HAVING THAT
SAFE PLACE TO LIVE. CAN HELP YOU
A LOT OF OTHER THINGS. SO I JUST
THINK IS A ONE MORE WAY TO GIVE
PEOPLE A SHOT. AT GETTING INTO
STABLE HOUSING. AND LETTING THEM
BE ABLE TO. PROVIDE ADDITIONAL
DOCUMENTATION. THAT SAYS THAT
THEY ARE GOOD FOR THAT 30% IN
SURROUND. YEAH I MEAN IT'S
LISTED FIX THE KIND OF. THE
BROADER SYSTEM IN GENERAL RIGHT
I MEAN I THINK. SOME OF US HAVE
RUN INTO TROUBLE. BECAUSE WE'RE
TRYING TO LIVE IN TWO PLACES
WERE NOT. YOU KNOW. PAID WELL
ENOUGH TO REALLY JUSTIFY LIVING
IN TWO PLACES- AND YET THEY HAVE
FORMULAS. AMONGST THE LENDERS
I'VE YOU KNOW. HOW MUCH MONEY I
TO BE ON HOUSING AND- WE'RE
PROBABLY PAYING MORE. HIGH
PERCENTAGE OF OUR- INCOMES ON
HOUSING- SO YEAH THAT MAKES A
RESPECTED SPEAKS TO THE FORMULA
THAT ARE APPLIED. TO THE CREDIT
CHECK SYSTEM OR ANYWHERE ELSE
THAT. AND I'M SORRY THAT YOU
MAYBE MAYBE. YOU THROUGH THE
COURSE OF. THE DEVELOPMENT OF
THIS BILL YOU. YOU'LL PROVIDE A
REALLY. GOOD AND ROBUST.
ALTERNATIVE. SAYS COULD HELP TO
INFORM. LENDING IN GENERAL I
MEAN I LOOK FOR TO DEPARTMENT
THE BILL. ALL RIGHT THANK YOU
THE RUSSELL THANK YOU I USUALLY
THANK AUTHOR I THINK THIS IS A
VERY WELL BALANCED BILL. THIS IS
NOT SAYING. OF YOU KNOW WE WOULD
LET ANYBODY GET AWAY WITH NOT
PROVIDING DOCUMENTS DOCUMENTS TO
BACK UP YOUR ABILITY TO PAY. BUT
I'M I'M A LITTLE SURPRISED
BECAUSE I THINK IT'S REALLY
TAKING EVERYBODY INTO
CONSIDERATION- AND IT. IT IT
OPENS UP I MEAN. CHECKS SUBS IS
A VERY. RELIABLE WAY OF SHOWING
YOUR INCOME AND I MEAN PASTE UP
SORRY- SO THERE'S A LOT A LOT OF
WAYS OF DOING THAT THAT'S VERY
RELIABLE- AND I THINK THAT'S ALL
YOU'RE ASKING FOR SO. I
APPRECIATE. THANK YOU OTHER
QUESTIONS COMMENTS- I HAVE A
QUESTION. SO IF. APPLICANTS
OFFER ALTERNATE EVIDENCE SO FOR
EXAMPLE THEY- SHOW AS YOU
SUGGEST YOU'LL PAY STUBS DOES
THE LANDLORD HAVE TO ACCEPT
THAT. THIS TOOK IT TO MAKE THEIR
OWN DECISION BUT IT JUST
PROVIDES A PERSON AN OPPORTUNITY
TO PRESENT SOMETHING ELSE VERSUS
JUST BEING. YOU KNOW REJECTED
OUT THE POWER THE BLIND WITHOUT
CREDIT SCORE. AS A WHEN THEY
APPLY FOR THAT RENTAL THEY CAN
SAY AND HE AND HERE'S- SOME
ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION. ALL
RIGHT BUT DOESN'T REQUIRE THE
LANDLORD THAT POINT RENT THE
NEXT QUESTION IS THE FOLLOWING
TO CENTER ALLEN'S. ARE YOU AWARE
OF VOUCHERS THAT ARE LESS THAN
50% I KNOW WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT
THE AVERAGES SEVENTY IF OTHER. I
AM NOT AWARE OF IT I DON'T KNOW.
LESS THAN 50% THEIR PLAN THAT
ARE LESS THAN FIFTY PETER. THERE
MAYBE RAPID REHOUSING PROGRAMS
THAT ARE DIFFERENT AND HOUSING
CHOICE VOUCHERS COMING THROUGH
HARD BUT IN THE CASE OF HOUSING
CHOICE VOUCHERS- THAT MATH- TO
THE LARGER QUESTION OF HOW THAT
30% IS DETERMINED THAT MATH IS
OBJECTIVE AND DONE. ACT
ELIGIBILITY SO WE DON'T YOU SAY
TO SOMEONE HAD LIKE IF HIS
APARTMENT AT FIFTEEN HUNDRED
DOLLARS A MONTH. WE DETERMINE
HOW THAT HOUSEHOLDS CAN AFFORD
AND MAYBE THEY RENT THE TWELVE
HUNDRED DOLLARS A MONTH SO IT'S
OBJECTIVE IN ITS- BUT TO THE
EXTENT THAT THERE MIGHT BE A
RAPID REHOUSING PROGRAMS THAT
PAY A LOWER AMOUNT. SPECIFICALLY
HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHERS TO HIDE.
HEY 70% RIGHT AT A MINIMUM WELL
I GOT THAT PART UNDERSTANDING
WHETHER THERE WAS FOR EXAMPLE
CITIES OR MAYBE SOMETHING. ALL

SENATE MITCHELL HI GOOD
AFTERNOON CHAIR MEMBER. I'M I'M
HERE TALK TO A S. B. FOUR FIVE
SIX. WHICH PROVIDES FOR TO THAT
UNCLE ON COME HOME IS MINE. WHO
ARE FIFTEEN YEARS OR OLDER AND
MANAGING THEIR OWN FINANCIAL
AFFAIRS CAN ACCESS VISION CARE
SERVICES WITHOUT A GUARDIANS
CONSENT. THIS BILL ALSO ADDS A
DEFINITION OF VISION CARE IN THE
FAMILY CODE ALIGNS WITH THE
OPTOMETRY PRACTICE ACT COVERING
SCOPE OF PRACTICE FOR
OPTOMETRISTS. CURRENT STATE LAW
ALREADY ALLOWS MINORS TO CONSENT
TO MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE BUT
IS SILENT ON WHETHER THEY CAN
OBTAIN VISION CARE THIS
AMBIGUITY HAS CAUSED CONFUSION
AMONG THE VISION CARE PROVIDERS
ON THE LEGALITY OF PROVIDING
SERVICES TO UNACCOMPANIED
HOMELESS YOUTH. LACK OF A LACK
OF STATUTORY CLARITY HAS
RESULTED IN AN ALREADY
UNDERSERVED COMMUNITY BEING
FURTHER OVER OVERLOOKED IF YOU
WANT WONDER WHY THIS SERVICE CAN
SIMPLY BE PROVIDED AT A SCHOOL
WHERE THAT INDIVIDUAL- ATTENDS.
A STUDY PRODUCED BY THE AMERICAN
OPTOMETRIC ASSOCIATION IN TWO
THOUSAND SEVENTEEN FOUND THAT
SCHOOL SCREENINGS PROVIDE. LESS
THAN 4% OF THE ITEMS NEEDED FOR
CHILDREN AND THEY'RE MISSING UP
25075% OF CHILDREN WITH VISION
PROBLEMS. EVEN IN CASES WHERE
THESE PROBLEMS ARE IDENTIFIED IN
SCHOOL THAT ARE- IDENTIFIED IN
SCHOOL VISITS SUBCENTRAL AT
SUBSEQUENT DOCTOR VISITS ARE
NEEDED FOR PROPER DIAGNOSIS AND
TREATMENT. FOR THE CURRENT
STATUS QUO ALLOWS FOR
UNACCOMPANIED MINOR HOME WITH
MINORS TO FALL THROUGH THE
CRACKS. AND WE DON'T KNOW. DON'T
HAVE TO TELL TO TELL YOU ABOUT
THE CHILDREN WHO ARE STRUGGLING
WITH VISION CARE WOULD THEN NOT
BE ABLE TO READ INSTEAD OF READ-
WHAT THEY'RE LEARNING IN SCHOOL
I WILL IMPEDE THEIR LEARNING AND
EDUCATION. I'M VISION
DEVELOPMENT IS VITAL FOR A MINUS
GROWTH AND IF LEFT UNTREATED CAN
LEAD TO VISION CHALLENGES THAT
IMPACT YOUR EDUCATIONAL AND
SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT THAT IS WHY
SB FOUR FIVE SEVEN IS NEEDED TO
MAKE A SIMPLE FIX. TO MAKE IT
CLEAR THAT UNACCOMPANIED
HOMELESS MINORS ARE ABLE TO
CONSENT THE VISION CARE
SERVICES. TO REITERATE AGAIN
THIS FIX IS NEEDED BECAUSE THE
CURRENT PROVISIONS AROUND
MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE A FORTY
TWO ON A COMPANY AND HOMELESS
YOUTH. IS NOT EXTENDED TO THE
REVISION CARE. SO HERE WITH ME
TO TESTIFY ON BEHALF OF THIS
BEFORE FIVE SEVEN I HAVE KIM

THE CHANCE TRANSFORMER
MOBILITY'S FUTURE PRIVATE

THANK YOU SO MUCH. SB THREE
FORTY THREE. AND WHAT SB THREE
FORTY THREE ADDRESSES IS OUR
CHILD SUPPORT SYSTEM. IN TWENTY
SIXTEEN THE FEDERAL OFFICE OF
CHILD SUPPORT ENFORCEMENT ISSUED
WHAT IS TERMED THE FINAL RULE.
THAT WAS THE FIRST COMPREHENSIVE
CHILD SUPPORT REVISION IN TWENTY
YEARS. IT WAS PURPOSE WAS TO
IMPROVE OUTCOMES FOR LOW INCOME
FAMILIES SPECIFICALLY THAT WHAT
IS CALLED THE FINAL RULE MADE
MORE REALISTIC ORDERS BASED ON
EVIDENCE OF AN INDIVIDUAL'S
FINANCIAL CIRCUMSTANCES. IT
SPECIFIES SCREENING FOR ABILITY
TO PAY BEFORE INCARCERATING
PARENTS FOR FAILURE TO PAY AND
INSURERS AND INCARCERATED
PARENTS WERE ABLE TO ADJUST
THEIR PAYMENT BASED ON INCOME.
NOW UNDER THIS FINAL RULE WHICH
IS A FEDERAL RULE CALIFORNIA HAS
TO IMPLEMENTED BY SEPTEMBER
FIRST TWENTY TWENTY FOUR. TO
ENSURE CALIFORNIA'S CONFORMITY
WITH THAT RULE SB THREE THREE
FORTY THREE WILL. BASICALLY ARE
PUT CALIFORNIA IN- IN
CONFORMANCE WITH THAT AND I WANT
TO THANK SPECIFICALLY THE PRO
TIMES STAFF AND- A GROUP OF
STAKEHOLDERS MADE UP OF VARIOUS
DEPARTMENT AND AGENCY STAFF
STATE DEPARTMENT AND AGENCY
STAFF AND THE JUDICIAL COUNCIL
WHO WORKED ALL SUMMER AND FALL.
ON THIS PROPOSAL BEFORE YOU AND
IT RESULT REPRESENTS AN
AGREEMENT FROM BOTH THE ASSEMBLY
AND SENATE AND IT REQUIRES CHILD
SUPPORT ORDERS TO BE DETERMINED
BY CASE BY CASE BASIS ON ACTUAL
EARNINGS ERASES THE DEFINITION
OF LOW AND MIDDLE INCOME
DETERMINING CHILD SUPPORT
ORDERS. AND UPDATES THE CHILD
SUPPORT CALCULATIONS TO MORE
ACCURATELY REFLECT EACH PERRANCE
ACTUAL INCOME NOW I WOULD LIKE
MY WITNESSES IN SUPPORT STEVEN
GOLDBERG FROM LEAVE LEGAL
SERVICES OF NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
AND MICHELLE CHAN WHO IS THE
FOUNDER AND DIRECTOR OF
CALIFORNIA FAMILIES RICE. THANK
YOU ZUCKERBERG THANK YOU VERY
MUCH STEVEN GOLDBERG REGIONAL
COUNCIL FOR LEGAL SERVICES OF
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA IN SUPPORT
OF SB THREE FORTY THREE. THE
BILL DOES TWO VERY IMPORTANT
THINGS THAT IMPLEMENTS THE
FEDERAL FINAL RULE WHICH
CALIFORNIA IS REQUIRED TO DO BY
TWENTY TWENTY FOUR. AND IT DOES
SO BY ENDING CALIFORNIA'S
PRESUMED ORDERS BY ENDING THE
PRACTICE IN CALIFORNIA OF
ASSUMING THAT AND OBLIGOR PARENT
HAS A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF INCOME
WITHOUT ANY EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT
THAT THE FEDERAL FINAL RULE
PREVENTS CALIFORNIA FROM DOING
THAT AND THE BILL DOES A VERY
GOOD JOB OF IMPLEMENTING. THAT
FEDERAL REQUIREMENT AND SECONDLY
IT MAKES TWO CHANGES TO
CALIFORNIA'S FINE- CHILD SUPPORT
FORMULA IN ORDER TO RIGHT SIZE
ORDERS IN ORDER TO CREATE ORDERS
THAT LOW INCOME ABA GORES ARE
MUCH MORE ABLE TO PAY AND THUS
IN DOING SO. CREATES ORDERS THAT
WILL MORE LIKELY BE PAID BECAUSE
IT ALLOWS LOW INCOME ABA GORE'S
TO BE ABLE TO AFFORD THEIR
PAYMENTS AND THEN BE ABLE TO
MAKE THEM SO IT HELPS EVERYBODY
IN THE CHILD SUPPORT SYSTEM. WE
STAND. STRONG WIND- WORDING
THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU.
GOOD AFTERNOON. MY NAME IS
MICHELLE JANET AND FOUNDER OF
CALIFORNIA FAMILIES RISE AND
ALSO SEE A FIRST DIRECT ACTION
ARM PARENTS AGAINST CPS OVER
CORRUPTION. I AM INTERESTED
VIOLENCE SURVIVOR. AND CPS
MISSILE SUPPORT IMPACTED MOTHER
. FOR A PERIOD OF TIME MY EX HAD
SOLE CUSTODY OF OUR SON. I FEEL
STRONGLY THAT MY EX WAS DRIVEN
TO TAKE CUSTODY AWAY FROM ME
BECAUSE HE DID NOT WANT TO PAY
CHILD SUPPORT. SHORTLY AFTER
AGREEING CUSTODY. THE FAMILY
COURT ORDERED HIM TO PAY THREE
THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS A
MONTH IN SPOUSAL SUPPORT. AND
AMOUNT THAT CUT INTO HIS BUDGET
THAT HE NEEDED IN ORDER TO
MAINTAIN HIS LIVING EXPENSES.
AND HE HIT THE ROOF. HE WOULD
HELP PAYMENT. AND THEN HAD ME
EVICTED FROM MY RENT CONTROL
APARTMENT OF TEN YEARS. I WAITED
SEVERAL YEARS TO FILE FOR CHILD
SUPPORT BECAUSE I WAS TERRIFIED
. THAT IF HE WAS ORDERED TO PAY
MORE THAN HE COULD FORWARD. YOU
WOULD PURSUE CHILD. CHILD
CUSTODY PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ME
AGAIN. WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO ME
THAT MY SON HAS STABLE HOUSING
IS NEEDS ARE MET. ALTHOUGH I AM
THE COLLECTING PARTY I FEEL THAT
CHILD SUPPORT ORDERS SHOULD BE
DETERMINED BASED ON THE CHILD'S
NEEDS IN THE PAYING PARTY'S
ABILITY TO PAY. EVEN THOUGH MY
EX IS A HIGH EARNER. WHEN HE WAS
ORDERED TO PAY THREE THOUSAND
SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS A MONTH. IT
DIDN'T LEAVE HIM WITH ENOUGH
MONEY FOR RENT. CAR PAYMENTS
INSURANCE STUDENT LOAN PAYMENTS
UTILITIES AND FOOD. MY SOMEONE
TELL ME HOW HE- ALWAYS ATE THE
SAME BLAND FOODS OR WHATEVER WAS
BUY ONE GET ONE FREE AT THE
SUPERMARKET THAT WE CAN HOW IS
DAD STOP BUYING HIM TOYS.
INSTEAD NEVER TOOK HIM TO DO
THINGS. MY EX HUSBAND'S
FINANCIAL STRESS HAD A
SIGNIFICANT NEGATIVE IMPACT. ON
MY SON'S OVERALL WELL BEING.
WHICH IMPACTED I'M SORRY I HIS
OVER WELL ALL WELL BEING WHICH
IMPACTED HOW MY EXTRUDER SON. IT
ALSO PUT ME AT CONSTANT RISK OF
HAVING TO FIGHT ANOTHER CUSTODY
BATTLE. RIGHT SIZE CHILD SUPPORT
ORDERS THAT ARE DETERMINED ON A
CASE BY CASE BASIS WILL MAKE A
HUGE IMPACT IN THE LIVES AND
WELL BEING OF CHILDREN.
ESPECIALLY FOR CHILDREN LIVING
IN LOW INCOME HOUSEHOLDS. AS
WELL AS THE CUSTODIAL AND
NONCUSTODIAL PARENTS. AND FOR
THIS REASON I'M ASKING YOU FARE
AND MEMBERS. TO PLEASE VOTE I ON
THE MEASURE VOTE TODAY. THANK

NINETEEN NINETY TWO WAS IN
DEFAULT ONE THAT MEANS NOBODY
BUT IT. IN THE LAST THIRTY YEARS
IT WAS NEVER VETTED AND OUTCOME
OF DIET. AND CITIES ARE UNABLE
TO PAY THEIR CHILD SUPPORT
CALCULATED BY THE FORMULA. THIS
BILL IS AGAIN AN EXTENSION OFF
THE SAME FORMULA- NO
MODIFICATION OF SUCH EXCEPTIONAL
SOME CHANGES IN THE NOMINATORS
AND DENOMINATORS OF THE
CALCULATOR. WITH SOME
MODIFICATIONS WHICH WHEN LOOKED
INTO WITH RANDOM P. IN VALUES IT
SPITS OUT VERY SIMILAR NUMBERS
YOU KNOW IT DOESN'T MAKE IT MUCH
OF A DIFFERENCE ACTUALLY.
ANNALISE'S STATES THAT THIS WILL
REDUCE AREAS IN ALL AREAS AND-
BASICALLY BUT IT IS NOT. AS OF
TODAY WE HAVE EIGHTEEN POINT
FOUR BILLION DOLLARS OFF PENDING
TRANSPORT. IN THE STATE. AND IT
IS SAW SNOWBALLING AT THE RATE
OF THREE MILLION DOLLARS PER
DAY. AND WITH THIS MAY BE AN
SOME OF THE AMOUNT WILL BE THERE
BUT IT'S NOT THAT MUCH BETTER TO
MAKE A LOT OF DIFFERENCE. MAYBE
BY THE END OFF TWENTY TWENTY SIX
IN ALL BY THE TIME THE BILL IS
GOING TO BE IMPLEMENTED 100% BY
DCS IS. THE WHOLE OF YOU KNOW
CHILD SUPPORT EARLIER IS GOING
TO INCREASE FROM EIGHTEEN
BILLION TO TWENTY TWO BILLION.
AND THEN WHAT WILL HAPPEN IS. OF
IN OVER THIS FORMULA AGAIN
MODIFIED AND AGAIN RE
IMPLEMENTED. YOU KNOW IT
MATTERED USED TO MAYBE SOONER
MILLION A YEAR BUT NOT MUCH AND
ALSO DOCUMENTS IN ORDER AREAS
ARE GOING TO KEEP ON MOUNTING UP
ENOUGH AND WE DO NOT FIND ANY
REASON OBVIOUSLY IN OUR TO-
SUBSTITUTE THIS BASICALLY. ARE
ABSOLUTE I'M DOING NOW STATES

PLEASED TO PRESENT SB SIXTEEN
THAT WOULD EMPOWER LOCAL

FIFA. CALIFORNIA'S WORKERS HAVE
A FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT TO WORK IN
DISCRIMINATION FREE WORK SITES
AND ENVIRONMENTS AND THERE ARE
SCORES OF INDUSTRY MILLIONS OF
WORKERS AND EMPLOYERS AND FAR
TOO MANY SCHEMES AND WHEN LEFT
UNCHECKED DISCRIMINATION IN THE
WORKPLACE DENIES WORKERS THEIR
BASIC RIGHT TO HUMAN DIGNITY.

VITAL RESOURCES WHEN WORKERS ARE
NOT ABLE TO EARN A LIVING TO
TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES AND
THEIR FAMILIES. IN MANY
VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES TOO OFTEN
DISCRIMINATION CAN BE A JOB
KILLER A RECENT STUDY BY UCLA
REPORTED THAT WOMEN SURVEYED
CITED DISCRIMINATION AND IS A
LEADING CAUSE OF ABSENTEEISM DUE
TO STRESS RELATED ILLNESS AT
WORK IN OFTEN LEAD. TO
RESIGNATION AND WE DON'T NEED
WOMEN LEAVING THE WORKPLACE FIFA
IS THE STATE STATUTE THAT
PROTECTS WORKERS FROM
DISCRIMINATION BASED ON RACE
RELIGION DISABILITY SEXUAL
ORIENTATION GENDER EXPRESSION.
AMONG OTHER CIVIL RIGHTS
PROTECTIONS ENFORCED BY THE
CALIFORNIA CIVIL RIGHTS
DEPARTMENT THE HAS THE STATE'S
FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE FOR
CALIFORNIA'S WORKERS TO REPORT
CLAIMS OF WORKPLACE AND HOUSING
DISCRIMINATION. BUT THE
PERVASIVENESS OF DISCRIMINATION
THROUGHOUT THE STATE AND THE
INCREASING INCIDENCE. OF LATE
HAVE MADE IT VERY DIFFICULT AND
NEAR IMPOSSIBLE FOR A SINGLE
STATE AGENCY TO BEAR THE SOLE
RESPONSIBILITY OF ENFORCEMENT
PARTICULARLY WHEN THE AGENCY IS
UNDERSTAFFED AND OVERBURDENED AS
IT HAS BEEN FOR YEARS. AS ONE
EXAMPLE I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO
MEET WITH THE WORKER- CASTRO
LANDERS WHO WORKED IN THE RAIL
YARDS AND HE SHARED AN INCIDENT
ABOUT HIS JOB HIS JOB WAS TO
MOVE THE TRAIN CARS OUT OF- THE
SWITCHING YARD IN INTO THE MAIN
YARD IS A VERY DANGEROUS JOB-
YOU WORK WITH FOLKS WHO- ON
COUPLE AND COUPLE THE RAIL CARS
AND- OFTEN THERE ARE MOMENTS
WHERE FOLKS ARE CRUSHED IN THAT
PROCESS. ONE DAY AS HE WAS
WALKING OVER TO HIS CAR HE
WALKED INTO A THE CABIN OF THE
CAR ANY FOUND A BLACK DAHLE
HANGING BY ITS NECK FROM HIS
SWITCHING POLL. AND HE DIDN'T
KNOW HOW IT GOT THERE AND IN HIS
MIND HE WAS THINKING ABOUT ALL
OF THE WORKERS WHO ARE IN THAT
YARD WITH HIM WHO WERE REALLY
RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS SAFETY. AND
HE MERELY REALIZE HOW UNSAFE HE
WAS IN HIS WORK ENVIRONMENT AND
WHEN HE REPORTED THIS TO THE
SUPERVISORS THEY DID NOTHING AND
WHEN HE SUBMITTED A COMPLAINT TO
THE DEPARTMENT OF FAIR.
EMPLOYMENT AND HOUSING- THE
INCIDENT- MOVE FORWARD BUT IT
TOOK MONTHS BEFORE HE EVER GOT A
RESPONSE IN IN THE IN THE
RESPONSE NEVER CAME IN. HE
DIDN'T HAVE A SOLUTION FROM OUR
FROM OUR STATE AGENCY AND TO ME
THAT MEANS THAT THERE ARE
THOUSANDS OF CALIFORNIANS
WORKERS WHO ARE NOT RECEIVING
THE PROTECTIONS THAT THEY SO
DESPERATELY SEEK AND NEED AND AS
A RESULT- PARTICULARLY FOR LOW
WAGE WORKERS- WHO OFTEN CANNOT
AFFORD ATTORNEYS AND THEIR- WHAT
THEY EARN IS VERY DIFFICULT TO
ATTRACT ATTORNEY TO TAKE THEIR
CASES. MANY OF THEM ARE LEFT
WITHOUT PROTECTIONS OUR WORKERS
DESERVE BETTER OUR FAMILIES
DESERVE BETTER AND YOU KNOW IN
THIS EFFORT MANY LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS CITIES AND
COUNTIES- HAVE STARTED TO CREATE
THEIR OWN CIVIL RIGHTS
DEPARTMENTS THAT IS THE CASE IN
LOS ANGELES IN THE CITY AND
COUNTY. OF SAN FRANCISCO IN SAN
DIEGO TWO TO NAME SOME OF THOSE
AGENCIES ARE AND WHILE THESE
AGENCIES ARE WORKING EFFECTIVELY
TO END DISCRIMINATION IN THEIR
JURISDICTION. STATE LAW.
PROHIBITS THEM FROM ENFORCING
ACTIONS FOR CIVIL RIGHTS
VIOLATIONS IN EMPLOYMENT AND
HOUSING. TODAY WE HAVE A
TREMENDOUS OPPORTUNITY TO ALLOW
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO ENFORCE
CIVIL RIGHTS PROTECTIONS WHILE
ENABLING OUR STATE CIVIL RIGHTS
DEPARTMENT TO DEVELOP THE
PARTNERSHIPS NEEDED. TO ENSURE
ROBUST AND VIGOROUS ENFORCEMENT
THESE PARTNERSHIPS CAN LOOK
DIFFERENT ACROSS THE STATE- TO
FIT THOSE LOCAL NEEDS- BUT THEIR
GOAL HERE IS TO PUT MORE
ENFORCEMENT BOOTS ON THE GROUND
STRENGTHENING OVERALL
PROTECTIONS. SB SIXTEEN SEASONS
ON THIS OPPORTUNITY BY REMOVING
PREEMPTION FROM PROVISIONS
WITHIN VIA. THE HEAD THAT
PREVENT LOCAL AGENCIES FROM INFO
ENFORCING CIVIL RIGHTS
VIOLATIONS AND BUILDING
PARTNERSHIPS RIGHT WITH THESE
LOCAL JURISDICTIONS SO THAT ARE
STRENGTHENED. UP PROTECTIONS
HAPPEN OVERALL- WITH THAT I'D
LIKE NOW TO TAKE THIS
OPPORTUNITY TO INTRODUCE ELDER
SOLOMON POLICY MANAGER WITH THE
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA BLACK WORKER
HOPE FOR REGIONAL ORGANIZING WHO
WILL TESTIFY IN SUPPORT. OF SB
SIXTEEN I JUST SAY SHE BRAVED
TORRENTIAL RAINS DRIVING HERE AT
TO BE WITH YOU THIS AFTERNOON
IT'S TRUE I'M TRYING NOW. OUR
THANK YOU NOON MEMBERS AND MR
HERE MY NAME IS ALSO A I'M
POLICY MANAGER OF THE SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA BLOODWORK HOPE FOR
REGIONAL ORGAN. IT IS MY
PLEASURE TO SPEAK ON BEHALF OF
THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA BAKIR
HOPE AND ENTHUSIASTIC
SPONSORSHIP OF SB SIXTEEN. OF
THE MISSION OF OUR ORGANIZATION
IS TO UNIFY BLACK WORKER VOICES
THE CONSOLIDATE BLOCKER POWER-
IN THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
REGION WITH OUR REGION OF AFRICA
CENTER IS A LOS ANGELES INLAND
EMPIRE AND SAN DIEGO- OFTEN WE
HEAR YOU KNOW A LOT OF WORK OUR
STORIES WE COLLECT WORKERS
STORIES AND TRY TO. INFORM OUR
POLICY IN CAM CAMPAIGN BURKE YOU
KNOW BY THE THINGS THAT WORKERS
ARE EXPERIENCING ON THE GROUND-
WHAT WE'VE LEARNED IS THAT IT'S
ALL TOO COMMON THE KINDS OF
DISCRIMINATION THAT BLACK
WORKERS FEES- FROM RACIAL TO
GENDER TO. DISABILITY
DISCRIMINATION THAT IT RUNS THE
GAMUT- IN WHEN SPEAKING WITH
WITH WORKERS WE'VE LEARNED THAT
WORKPLACE DISCRIMINATION IS JUST
DISTURBINGLY COMMON- IN FACT IN
A LARGE THE LARGE STUDY DONE OF
BLACK WORKERS IN CALIFORNIA WE
THINK IT'S THE LARGEST BLOCK
STUDY DONE OF ALL WORKERS IN THE
NATION. WE SURVEYED TWO THOUSAND
WERE BLACK WORKERS AT THE HEAD
OF THE PANDEMIC AND
DISCRIMINATION- WAS ONE OF THE
MAJOR ONE OF THREE MAJOR
EXPERIENCES THAT BLACK WORKERS
COMMONLY FACED. DURING THIS TIME
I WANT US TO MAKE
RECOMMENDATIONS ON WHAT ALL
LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT SHOULD DO
TO PROVIDE SUPPORT FOR BLACK
WORKERS A MAJOR RECOMMENDATION
INCLUDED TARGETED WORKFORCE
RIGHTS AND DEVELOPMENT
PROGRAMMING- AND BECAUSE BLACK
WORKERS. EXPERIENCES
COMMISSIONER HIGH RATES IT
CONTINUES TO BE A MAJOR DRIVER
OF UNEMPLOYMENT UNDEREMPLOYMENT
TRAUMA. AND BLACK WORKERS ARE
NEEDED RESOURCES TO FIGHT
AGAINST DISCRIMINATION UNSAFE
WORKERS. UNSAFE WORKPLACES
EXCUSE ME ORDERS BASIS FOR
NATION- AND ARE DESERVING OF
FAIR AND SAFE WORK. BLOCKERS AND
OTHER MARGINALIZED WORKERS LIKE
LGBT Q. OF YOU- UNDOCUMENTED
WORKERS WORKERS OF RELIGIOUS
MINORITIES. IMMIGRANT WORKERS
ELDERLY WORKERS DIFFERENTLY
ABLED WORKERS ALL CALIFORNIANS-
ARE. AT THE RISK OF FACING
WORKPLACE DISCRIMINATION. AND WE
BELIEVE- THAT THEY HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO ASSERT THEIR
RIGHTS AT EVERY LEVEL. OF THE
GOVERNMENT- THE NEED FOR SB
SIXTEEN IS COMPLEX AND URGENT-
ACROSS THE STATE RESEARCH HAS
SHOWN IN THAT CALIFORNIA HAS.
ABOUT A THIRD FOUR PER. INCREASE
IN. WORKPLACES CO. COMPLAINTS
SINCE THE NINE EIGHTIES BUT WE
DO NOT SEE A PROPORTIONATE
INCREASE IN THE STATE'S CAPACITY
TO ACT ADEQUATELY ADDRESS THESE
CONCERNS. AND COMPLAINTS- THE
ADDITION OF LOCAL WORK FORCE-
ENFORCEMENT COULD GIVE MORE
WORKERS A FIGHTING CHANCE
AGAINST DISCRIMINATION. IN THEIR
OWN COMMUNITIES- BY BEING ABLE
TO FILE COMPLAINTS WITH LOCAL
AGENCIES AND DEPARTMENTS. THE
NEED FOR STRONGER ENFORCEMENT
ALREADY THANK YOU FOR COULD WRAP
IT UP OKAY- THE NEED FOR
STRONGER ENFORCEMENT- REALLY
COMES DOWN TO NOT ONLY MORE FOR
SOMEBODY WHO IS ACTUALLY DOING
ENFORCEMENT. AND LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS AND AGENCIES WE
UNDERSTAND WILL HAVE BETTER
RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE LOCAL
WORKERS AND EMPLOYERS AND WITH
COMMUNITIES AND SO WITH THAT WE
RESPECTFULLY REQUEST FOR AYE

TWEENER IF YOU WERE WE'RE VERY
PLEASED WITH THE AMENDMENTS THAT
MISTER GRIFFITH AND THE
COMMITTEE. I HAVE SUGGESTED THE
ONLY A BECAUSE WE'RE LOOKING AT
THE UNIFORMITY OF OUR
INTERPRETATION AND APPLICATION
OF OUR DISCRIMINATION LAWS
THAT'S REALLY REALLY IMPORTANT
WHETHER STERN AT THE STATE LEVEL
OR THE LOCAL LEVEL. THERE'S ONE
THING WE WOULD LIKE TO ASK THE
AUTHOR AS THE BILL MOVES
FORWARD. IN THERE IS TO ASSURE
THAT. THE CIVIL RIGHTS
DEPARTMENT AS IT IS NOW KNOWN.
AS OF LAST JULY. DOES NOT SUFFER
AN ADVERSE- FINANCIAL SETBACK
BECAUSE THEY ARE TRYING TO
ENFORCE THE LAWS AND SO WERE THE
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TRYING TO
ENFORCE THE LAWS WE WANT TO MAKE
SURE. THAT WHOEVER IT IS.
THERE'S ONE AND- ONE ENTITY ONE
GOVERNMENT. THAT IS PROCESSING
THAT DISCRIMINATION COMPLAINT
AND- WE LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING
WITH THE AUTHOR TO MAKE SURE
THAT THAT JUST ONE LITTLE TWEAK
IS DONE- SUCCESSFULLY THANK YOU.

LET'S BRING BACK COMMITTEE
REQUEST HERE I'M SORRY SIMILAR
ANSWERS THANK YOU VERY MUCH- I
APPLAUD THE AUTHOR FOR BRINGING
THIS BILL FORWARD IN A MOMENT
WE'LL BE HAPPY TO MOVE IT. AND I
APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT SHE
TOOK THE AMENDMENTS AND WE'RE
WORKING WITH THE STAFF IN WHEN I
WAS IN THE ASSEMBLY AND STARTED
TWENTY YEARS AGO THERE WERE A
HUNDRED AND FORTY FOR NON
DISCRIMINATION CODE SECTIONS.
ONLY TO MENTION SEXUAL
ORIENTATION MANY DID NOT MENTION
GENDER SOME SAID HANDICAPPED
INSTEAD OF PEOPLE WITH
DISABILITY SOME SAID ETHNIC
HERITAGE RATHER THAN RACE. MANY
DID NOT HAVE MARITAL STATUS AND
I DID A SERIES OF BILLS THAT
INDEX. OF THE FAIR EMPLOYMENT
AND HOUSING ACT CATEGORIES TO
THAT SO THAT OUR CODE WAS WAS
CONSTANT AND ALSO DID A BILL.
THAT FORMALLY ADDED CATEGORIES
TO THE UNREST CIVIL RIGHTS ACT
BECAUSE IT WAS A COURT CASE
FORTY YEARS AGO THAT SAID THAT
CATEGORIES COULD BE INCORPORATED
BY REFERENCE THAT ONE
SPECIFICALLY NAMED THAT'S HOW
SEXUAL ORIENTATION ORIGINALLY
CAME AND MARITAL STATUS
ORIGINALLY CAME IN UNDER CIVIL
RIGHTS ACT. AND WITHOUT NOT
WITHSTANDING THAT COURT SUIT
STANDING I DID A BILL THAT WAS
SUCCESSFULLY SIGNED THAT ADDED
CATEGORIES AND THE THING WAS AS
WE ALSO TRIED TO GET MONEY
ADDITIONALLY PUT IN. FOR
ENFORCEMENT AND THIS FORTUNATE
GUARD MINISTRATION WOULD NOT DO
IT SO WHEN MR KINGSTON TESTIFIED
THAT HE HOPES THAT HE THINKS
THAT MONEY WILL NOT BE CUT FROM
THE STATE BECAUSE OF THIS BILL.
I FOR ONE AM STILL IN FAVOR OF
ADDING IN AND FEEL LIKE THAT IS
SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE TO DO TO
MAKE SURE THAT WHETHER THIS BILL
EVENTUALLY SIGNED INTO LAW OR
NOT. WE HAVE ADEQUATE
ENFORCEMENT AT THE STATE LEVEL
SO OVERALL APPLAUD YOU FOR
BRINGING THE. BILL FORD I WOULD
MOVE THE BILL- LED MOVES BILL
SENATE RUSSELL YEAH. THANK YOU
TO AUTHORS WELL ADJUSTED BECAUSE
- ON YOUR- AGREEMENT TO WORK ON
SOME AMENDMENT LANGUAGE- DO YOU
FEEL LIKE THAT'S GOING TO.
ADDRESS SOME OF THE CONCERNS
THAT HAVE BEEN RAISED BY THE
COMMITTEE. I GOT YOU ARE YOU I
MEAN I DO FEEL YOU'RE WELL ON
YOUR WAY TO ADDRESSING THOSE I
DO AND I THANK YOU FOR THE
QUESTION I THANK YOU FOR YOUR
COMMENTS AS WELL SENATOR LAYERED
AND FOR YOUR WORK- IN THIS
SPACE- CIVIL RIGHTS IS A
GENERATIONAL STRUGGLE AND FIGHT
INTO TO YOUR POINT SENATOR THE
ROSS SO I THINK WE'RE IN.
CONVERSATIONS WITH THE
GOVERNOR'S OFFICE WEARING
CONVERSATIONS CLOSE
CONVERSATIONS WITH THE CIVIL
RIGHTS DEPARTMENT- THIS IS ABOUT
STRENGTHENING OUR ENFORCEMENT-
APPARATUS IN THE STATE EXPANDING
OUR CAPACITY AND BRINGING
PARTNERSHIPS AT THE LOCAL LEVEL
TO SUPPORT SO. THIS IS A
MULTIPLIER BILL HOW CAN WE
MULTIPACK PLY OUR CAPACITY AND
STRENGTH TO DO THIS WORK AND
I'VE ALSO- PUT SOME MONEY WHERE
MY MOUTH IS RIGHT I'M FIGHTING
FOR RESOURCES IN THE BUDGET. TO
MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE THE
PROPER PARTNERSHIPS- BECAUSE
THERE'S A LOT OF PROTECTED
CLASSES- AND FOLKS WILL COME TO
THIS BILL IN ITS PROTECTIONS.
I'M THROUGH THE EIGHT MANY
CHANNELS AND WE WANT TO MAKE
SURE THAT THERE ARE RESOURCES
FOR OUR STATE AGENCY TO BUILD
THE KINDS OF PARTNERSHIPS. THAT
WE NEED TO PROTECT- CALIFORNIANS
SO YES I DO BELIEVE WE ARE ON
THE RIGHT TRACK A TO MAKE THIS
BILL- SUCCESSFUL IN TO GET A
SIGNATURE FROM THE GOVERNOR'S
OFFICE. ALL RIGHTY- YES SERIAL.
I THANK YOU MR- I DON'T KNOW
WHAT THE AMENDMENTS ARE BUT- I
DO- AS LONG AS THERE'S GOING TO
BE- ENABLING ENABLEMENT OF
ENFORCEMENT AND AT THE LOCAL
LEVEL- AS WELL AS EXISTING AT
THE STATE LEVEL. I SEE I HAVE.
A- GREAT RISK OF INCONSISTENT
ENFORCEMENT- THAT THE STATE
PERHAPS NOT AGREEING WITH A
PARTICULAR ISSUE OR CONCLUSION
OF THE LOCALS OR VICE VERSA. I
THINK THAT'S POTENTIALLY THE
RISK OF UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES
TO. SENATOR LAGGARDS POINT. IN
THE LAST FIVE BUDGET YEARS YOU
AND I WERE NOT HERE- BUT STATE
SPENDING HAS DOUBLED. AND YET
OUR COLLEAGUES AND FORMER
MEMBERS- AS WELL AS THE
ADMINISTRATION DIDN'T EVIDENTLY
DIDN'T SEE THE PRIORITY TO FIND
THIS DEPARTMENT IN A WAY THAT
THEY COULD PROVIDE ADEQUATE.
ENFORCEMENT I AM THE ONLY
EDITORIAL BEHIND THAT IS THAT
WOULD APPEAR TO BE A MISSED
OPPORTUNITY AND THAT KIND OF
PUZZLES ME IF YOU HAVE A
DEPARTMENT. WITH SUCH IMPORTANT-
ENFORCEMENT AFTER A
REINFORCEMENT POWERS AND SUCH
AND AN IMPORTANT AREA YOU WOULD
THINK THAT WOULD BE A PRIORITY
AND SO NOW WE'RE FACED WITH THE
UNINTENDED RISK OF- INCONSISTENT
ENFORCEMENT FROM LOCAL AND STATE
PERSPECTIVES ON. INDIVIDUAL.
CASES THAT'S MY CONCERN. WELL I
GUESS MY RESPONSE TO THAT IS
THAT WE ARE WORKING CLOSELY WITH
THE DEPARTMENT I TO MAKE SURE
THAT. WE ON THE FRONT END HOW OF
THE PROCESS FOR ADDRESSING THE
QUESTION ABOUT INCONSISTENCIES I
THINK- THE OPPORTUNITY HERE
IMPLICIT IN PARTNERSHIP IS THE
OPPORTUNITY TO COMMUNICATE TO
HAVE A CHANNEL. TO ADDRESS THOSE
ISSUES I THINK IF WE- DON'T MOVE
FORWARD WITH THIS IS A SENATOR
LAYERED SAID THERE THERE ARE A
LOT OF PROTECTED CLASSES THE LAW
IS COMPLEX AND WE NEED TO MAKE
SURE THAT. THERE IS A PROCESS BY
WHICH OUR STATE AND LOCAL
ENTITIES CAN COLLABORATE SO
PARTNERSHIP MEANS COLLABORATION
AND COMMUNICATION TO ADDRESS
THOSE ISSUES AND THAT'S WHAT
WE'RE WORKING. WITH THE
DEPARTMENT ON TO MAKE SURE THAT
THERE'S A PROCESS THAT WILL HELP
US ACCOMPLISH THAT. RT THANK YOU

YOURS THANK YOU VERY MUCH MISTER
CHAIR. I'M PRESENTING SENATE
BILL TWO EIGHTY WHICH WILL
REQUIRE- A CONSERVATOR TO SUBMIT
A CARE PLAN TO THE COURT TO
CONTAIN CERTAIN INFORMATION
RELATING TO CARE CUSTODY AND
CONTROL OF THE- CONSERVATIVE.
THIS BILL SIMILAR TO SENATE BILL
SIX OH TWO WHICH I AUTHORED LAST
YEAR. I GOT TO THIS COMMITTEE
WITH BIPARTISAN SUPPORT AND
NEVER RECEIVED A NO VOTE INTEL
IT WAS UNFORTUNATELY HELD IN THE
ASSEMBLY APPROPRIATIONS
COMMITTEE. IT COMES FROM AN
OUTSTANDING RECOMMENDATION FROM
THE G. THE JUDICIAL COUNCIL'S
PROBATE CONSERVATOR TASK FORCE
FROM TWO THOUSAND SEVEN. SINCE
THE COMMITTEE SAW THIS BILL I
TOOK A FEW AMENDMENTS OR MAKE
CHANGES TO ADDRESS SOME OF THE-
CONCERNS RAISED BY STAKEHOLDERS
IN INCLUDES NARROWING THE SCOPE
OF THE INFORMATION IN THE CARE
PLAN. DOUBLING THE TIME A
CONSERVATOR HAS TO SUBMIT THE
CARE PLAN AND DELAYING THE
IMPLEMENTATION DATE THESE
AMENDMENTS ARE ALSO COST SAVERS
AND HOPEFULLY WILL BE RECOGNIZED
IF IT GOES TO A- APPROPRIATIONS
COMMITTEE AGAIN. WHILE OPETH Y.
WAS RE BY MY OFFICE. ITEMS
LISTED AS CONCERNS HAVE EITHER
BEEN ADDRESSED OR REMOVE FROM
THE BILL- MY OFFICE IS ALWAYS
OPEN TO CONSIDER AMENDMENTS THAT
ARE CONSTRUCTIVE AND WE WILL
CONTINUE TO MEET WITH INTERESTED
PARTIES AND WILL MAKE SURE. THAT
THAT GROUP WITH WHOM WE HAVE
NOT. MET WITH UNDERSTANDS THOSE
CHANGES IN CITIES IF THERE ARE
ANY RESIDUAL ISSUES- I DO NOT
HAVE ANY MAIN WITNESSES WITH ME
TODAY. DID OF WHAT WE DID
RECEIVE A LATE SUPPORT WHATEVER
LETTER FROM THE PROFESSIONAL
FOODIE SHERRY ASSOCIATION OF.
CALIFORNIA AND I THANK YOU AND
RESPECTFULLY REQUEST AN AWFUL I
THANK YOU SAID EARLIER THOSE IN
SUPPORT OF SB TWO EIGHTY IF YOU
APPROACH THE MICROPHONE. SEEING
KNOWN APPROACHING MICROPHONE-
YES I DO SEE SOMEONE FOR ALL
OPPOSITION HERE WE GO- THOSE
OPPOSED PLEASE APPROACH MIKE
FROM. THANK YOU ARE CHAIRMAN
MEMBERS TRENT SMITH REPRESENTING
THE PUBLIC CONSERVATISM PUBLIC
GUARDIAN SENATOR IS CORRECT WE
DID HAVE LATE OPPOSITION I DID
MEET WITH. STAFF YESTERDAY AND
MANY OF HIS AMENDMENTS ARE QUITE
HELPFUL. I DO WANT TO JUST.
OUTLINED A FEW THINGS FOR 
COMMITTEE. PUBLIC CONSERVATISM
PUBLIC GUARDIANS ARE COUNTY
EMPLOYEES WHO ARE LAST TO HANDLE
THESE CASES THAT ARE NOT TAKEN
BY A FAMILY MEMBER OR A
PROFESSIONAL FIDUCIARY WHO. HAVE
AN OUTLIER IN SUPPORT OF THE
BILL THE PATEL PROFESSIONAL
FIDUCIARIES ARE MAKING AN INCOME
OR A FEE FOR. THE SERVICES
GENERALLY THE SERVICES THAT ARE
LEFT FOR THE PUBLIC COUNTY
EMPLOYEES ARE TO CARE FOR THE
PEOPLE WHO HAVE VERY FEW ASSETS
OR VERY. LITTLE INCOME FROM
WHICH THEY MAKE A FEES SO IT'S
ALMOST A PRO BONO TYPE SERVICE
AND IN MANY CASES. TO MAKE
THINGS WORSE- THERE IT IS TRUE
THAT THE PROBATE CONSERVATOR
TASK FORCE MADE ME GREAT
RECOMMENDATIONS THIS IS ONE OF
THEM ONE OF THEIR OTHER
RECOMMENDATIONS IS THAT PUBLIC
CONSERVATISM PUBLIC GUARDIANS BE
PROVIDED MORE ADEQUATE FUNDING.
WE'VE RECEIVED ZERO STATE
FUNDING IT'S ALL COUNTY FUNDED
AND IT'S THE ONLY SOCIAL SERVICE
PROGRAM YOUR AWARE OF AT THE
COUNTY LEVEL THAT RECEIVES NO
STATE FUNDING. AND OUR CONCERN
IS IF THIS BILL CREATES ANY
REDUNDANCIES AND WE HAVE NO
OBJECTION TO THE INFORMATION
THAT'S BEEN REQUESTED BECAUSE
FRANKLY WE PROVIDE THAT UNDER
VARIOUS OTHER. JUDICIAL COUNCIL
FORMS SO IF THIS BILL
STREAMLINES IT THAT'S A GOOD
THING IF IT CREATES MULTIPLE
REDUNDANT REPORTING. THAT'S A
BAD THING BECAUSE OUR MEMBERS
ARE ALREADY OVERWHELMED WITH
CASES AND ANY EXTRA WORK THAT
COULD COME FROM THIS OR ANY
OTHER BILL IS DETRIMENTAL. THE
OTHER ISSUE IS THE FINE ISSUE
WHICH WOULD BE A THOUSAND DOLLAR
FINE IN FROM THE KIND- CAN- INTO
THE ESTÁ. IF WE MISSED THE
DEADLINE WHAT YOU'RE TALKING
ABOUT FOR US AS YOU WOULD BE
TAKING COUNTY DOLLARS AND GIVING
THEM TO THE ESTATE F. AND I'M A
COUNTY EMPLOYEE DOESN'T MEET
THAT DEADLINE. WE THINK THAT'S
DETRIMENTAL TO THE OVERALL
BECAUSE WHICH IS TRYING TO KEEP
AS MUCH MONEY IN THE SYSTEM TO
SERVE AS MANY PEOPLE AS WELL AS
WE CAN WE THINK THIS IS A GREAT
BILL FOR THE- PRIVATE
FIDUCIARIES- BECAUSE FRANKLY ALL
OF THE EXAMPLES PROVIDED AND THE
ANALYSIS. ARE HORROR STORIES OF
PRIVATE FIDUCIARIES I'M NOT
SAYING THAT THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN
IN THE PUBLIC AREA BUT PUBLIC
CONSERVATORS AND GUARDIANS HAVE
NO FINANCIAL INTEREST THEY'RE
NOT COLLECTING THE MONEY ANY
FEES THEY COLLECT. GO BACK INTO
THE COUNTY TO. REPORT THIS
PROGRAM SO THOSE ARE CONCERNS I
THINK AGAIN. WE WILL WORK WITH
THE SENATOR IF THIS CREATES SOME
STREAMLINING AND EFFICIENCY IS
THAT'S THAT'S GREAT YES. ALL OF
YOU CAN EVENTUALLY PROVIDE US
FUNDING THAT WOULD BE EVEN
BETTER AND WE ARE CONCERNED
ABOUT THE FINES THAT IS ONE AREA
WE'D LIKE TO DEAL WITH SO THANK
YOU VERY MUCH ALL RIGHT THANK
YOU MISTER SMITH OTHERS IN
OPPOSITION. THING NO ONE
APPROACHING THE MICROPHONE
MODERATE LET'S TURN TO THE PHONE
LINES. ON S. B. TWO EIGHTY FOR
THOSE WHO ARE IN SUPPORT AND IN
OPPOSITION. COULD PROVIDE PUBLIC
COMMENT IN SUPPORT OR OPPOSITION
TO BE TWO EIGHTY PLEASE PRESS
ONE IF AND ZERO AT THIS TIME.
AND IF WE HAVE NO COMMENT COMING
PRO. ALL RIGHT QUESTIONS BY
COMMITTEE MEMBERS SEEING NONE IS
THERE A MOTION- SENATOR CINNAMON
MOST THE BILL. CERTAINLY CARE
CLOSE THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I
WOULD JUST SAY THAT THIS BILL
PASSED OUT WITH NO NO VOTES AND
WE STILL DOUBLE THE TIME. TO
ADDRESS THAT ISSUE THE FIA'S
OPTIONAL AND- ARE WE WILL. IT'S
A HOLISTIC APPROACH I DON'T
THINK IT'S ADDING ANYTHING THAT
IS REDUNDANT WE WILL CONTINUE TO
WORK WITH THEM AND NOW THAT WE
HAVE ACTUALLY. HAD A
CONVERSATION I THINK AND THEY
REALIZE WE'VE ADDRESSED A LOT OF
THEIR CONCERNS WILL CONTINUE TO
DO THAT I RESPECTFULLY REQUEST
IN ON FROM THANK YOU SAID
EARLIER ALL RIGHT. ANSWER TO THE
CALL THE ROLL. THIS IS S. B. TWO
EIGHTY THE MOTION IS TO PASS THE
SENATE APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE

JERRY. SURE. ALL RIGHT WE HAVE
OUR THREE FINAL ITEMS HERE
BEFORE THE TODAY'S JUDICIARY
COMMITTEE UP FIRST BECAUSE WE

ONE. AND THERE IS SENATOR- BURKE

JUDICIARY COMMITTEE TODAY OCT
AND I HOPE THAT SENATOR- BURKE
HAS TO REMOTE ACCESS BILLS AND
YOU ARE IN LUCK BECAUSE INDEED I
DO HAVE TO REMOTE ACCESS BILLS
FIRST IS S. B. TWENTY ONE. THAT
RELATES TO- CIVIL PROCEEDINGS.
IN THE PANDEMIC OF WE LEARN MANY
THINGS BUT WE LEARNED SOME
THINGS ABOUT ACCESSING THE COURT
REMOTELY WILL LEARN SOME THINGS
ABOUT HOW WE CAN BE MORE
EFFICIENT IN CONDUCTING- IN
PARTICULAR CIVIL PROCEEDINGS AND
HOW WE CAN PROVIDE ACCESS TO
FOLKS WHO ARE INDIGENT- BY
ALLOWING THEM TO ACCESS. COURT
PROCEEDINGS REMOTELY AND NOT
MISS A DAY OF WORK WE LEARNED A
NUMBER OF OTHER THINGS
CONCERNING HOW WE CAN BE MORE
EFFICIENT- I WOULD URGE AN AYE
VOTE. I HAVE WITH ME- I BELIEVE-
MISTER GREGORY ZERO THE
PRESIDENT OF THE CALIFORNIA
CONSUMER ATTORNEYS. AND MISTER
MIKE BELOW IS ALSO HERE ON
BEHALF DEFENSE COUNSEL. THANK
YOU SENATORS- MY NAME IS GREGORY
I'M THE CURRENT PRESIDENT OF THE
CONSUMER ATTORNEYS OF CALIFORNIA
SEVERAL WEEKS AGO I HAD THE
PRIVILEGE OF STANDING IN FRONT
OF YOU AND EXPLAINING TO YOU HOW
THIS BILL HAS BEEN A GAME
CHANGER IN THE COURTS. AND THAT
REMOTE TECHNOLOGY HAS BEEN
WIDELY ACCEPTED YESTERDAY THE
OUR NEW SUPREME COURT JUSTICE
PATRICIA GUERRERO SAID THAT
THERE IS IN THE FIFTY EIGHT
COUNTIES THERE'S A 96298%
POSITIVE APPROVAL RATING ON. I
WON'T BORE YOU WITH WHAT I SAID
TO WE SCOTT JUSTIN QUICK SUMMARY
WHAT I DID TAKES A TWO WEEKS AGO
WAS THAT MANY TIMES TREES HAVE
TO GET UP TO GO TO COURT AT SIX
IN THE MORNING TO GET FOR AN-
EIGHT THIRTY CALENDAR. AND HOPE
IT'S A SHORT COUNTER BECAUSE IF
IT'S NOT IN YOUR LATE ON THAT
CALENDAR. YOU MIGHT BE THERE AT
ELEVEN THIRTY IN THE MORNING
SIMPLY TO SAY THE FOLLOWING
WORDS. YES YOUR HONOR WE WILL BE
READY FOR TRIAL IN SIX MONTHS.
THAT IS SO INEFFICIENT AND THE

WITH THAT SENATOR UMBERG THE
FLOOR IS YOURS- THANK YOU I'LL
BE ACCEPTING THE COMMITTEES
AMENDMENTS- THIS IS REALLY THE
SON OF S. B. TWENTY TWO OF THE-
PROVISIONS CONCERNING CRIMINAL
PROCEDURE HAVE BEEN. ELIMINATED
YOU MAY SEE THEM LATER ON A
DIFFERENT VEHICLE BUT THIS
ASSEMBLY PERTAINS TO- JUVENILE
PROCEEDINGS AS WELL AS-
COMMITMENT PROCEEDINGS. THE THE
COMMITTEE HAS WORKED HARD ON
THIS BILL I'M GRATEFUL TO THE
STAKEHOLDERS THE CALIFORNIA
PUBLIC DEFENDERS THE JUDICIAL
COUNCIL AND NUMBER OF LABOR
GROUPS INCLUDING S. YEAH YOU FOR
CONTINUING TO WORK ON THIS THIS
THIS IS A ON. A WORK IN PROGRESS
AS ARE SOME OF THE OTHER REMOTE
ACCESS BILLS. AND I WOULD URGE
AN AYE VOTE. DO YOU HAVE ANY
LEAD WITNESSES- I BELIEVE A
REPRESENTATIVE FROM THE JUDICIAL
OKAY THERE WE GO YES. GOOD
AFTERNOON CHAIR AND MEMBER
SHARON RILEY ON BEHALF OF THE
JUDICIAL COUNCIL WE ARE IN
SUPPORT OF THE BILL I'M GOING TO
KEEP MY TESTIMONY. TESTIMONY
FOCUSED ON WHAT'S WITHIN THE
JURISDICTION OF THE COMMITTEE
YOU KNOW THERE ARE SOME
PROVISIONS RELATING TO JUVENILE
DELINQUENCY AND ARISING OUT OF
CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS IF YOUR
QUESTIONS HAPPY ANSWER THEM BUT-
I WILL LIMIT THAT- AS THE
SENATOR JUST SAID WE- HAVE BEEN
IN DISCUSSIONS WITH STAKEHOLDERS
WE'VE BEEN PROVIDING. TECHNICAL
ASSISTANCE AT THE REQUEST OF THE
SENATOR WE HAD A GREAT MEETING
YESTERDAY. I THINK WE MADE
PROGRESS WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD
TO FURTHER DISCUSSIONS AND WE'VE
BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN. REACHING
COMPROMISES WITH THEM THESE
FOLKS IN THE PAST SO LOOKING
FORWARD TO THAT. AT THE OUTSET
I'D LIKE TO EMPHASIZE THAT
CENTRAL IN THIS LAW IS THAT
REMOTE APPEARANCES REQUIRE THE
CONSENT OF THE INDIVIDUAL
SUBJECT TO THE PROCEEDING. AND
THEY ARE REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL.
I JUST WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT A
COUPLE REPORTS THAT THE COUNCIL
HAS ISSUED SINCE THE- UP
LEGISLATION AUTHORIZING CIVIL
REMOTE WAS PASSED. IN DECEMBER
TWENTY TWENTY TWO- WE NOTED THAT
THIRTY FIVE THOUSAND INDIVIDUALS
AGREE WITH THE- JUDICIAL
COUNCIL'S VIEW THAT- THERE BET
THERE ARE MANY BENEFITS. IN
COURT. TO REMOTE PROCEEDINGS AS
OF OCTOBER TWENTY TWENTY TWO
NINETY SIX OF THOSE WHO
RESPONDED. REPORTED THEY HAD A
POSITIVE EXPERIENCE WITH REMOTE
PROCEEDINGS THAT INCLUDES PUBLIC
THE PUBLIC CORDON POLICE LAWYERS
ETCETERA. AS OF FEBRUARY TWENTY
TWENTY THREE THOSE POSITIVE
PERCENTAGES REMAIN AND CHANGE
WITH MORE THAN SIXTY THOUSAND.
RESPONDING TO THE QUESTION ALSO
BASED ON DATA THE COUNCIL
RECEIVED FROM FIFTY ONE COURTS
WE ESTIMATE THERE WERE NEARLY
ONE MILLION CIVIL REMOTE
PROCEEDINGS ANNUALLY IN THOSE
COURTS THAT'S OVER SIX THOUSAND
REMOTE HEARINGS TAKING PLACE. IN
CALIFORNIA EACH DAY THIS
INCREASED ACCESS TO JUSTICE
WHICH IS WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT
HAS ALLOWED CALIFORNIANS TO
AVOID OVER. ONE POINT FIVE FIVE
MILLION TRIPS TO COURT HOUSES
THE SECOND REPORT IDENTIFIED
STRONG SUPPORT FOR MAKING REMOTE
PROCEEDINGS AVAILABLE BUT NOT.
MANDATORY MANDATORY- THE
EMPHASIZE ACCESS TO REMOTE
TECHNOLOGY CLEARING PRIVATE
COMMUNICATION BETWEEN PARTIES
AND THEIR ATTORNEYS AND
TECHNOLOGY THAT PROVIDES FOR
CLEAR COMMUNICATION BETWEEN ALL
PARTICIPANTS. IN- IN COURT
INTERPRETERS. JUST TO GIVE YOU A
FEW EXAMPLES THIS. THE THIS BILL
APPLIES TO REMOTE PROCEEDINGS
FOR PARTICULARLY VULNERABLE
INDIVIDUALS SO. OF CONCERN TO
THIS HUMIDITY ARE INDIVIDUALS
WHO WERE. IT PROCEEDINGS UNDER
THE LAND FROM IN PETER'S SHORT
ACT OFTENTIMES- THESE PEOPLE ARE
. UNFORTUNATELY SUFFERING VERY
ACUTE MENTAL HEALTH CHALLENGES
THE REMOTE OP OPTION HELPS AVOID
POTENTIAL DECOMPENSATION AND
TREATMENT SET FIRE BOX WHEN
PATIENTS. THAT CAN HAPPEN WHEN
PATIENTS HAVE TO BE TRANSPORTED
TO COURT BE AN AMBULANCE OFFERED
IN HOSPITAL A TIRE AND SOMETIMES
EVEN RESTRAINED. A REMOTE MAKES
IT EASIER FOR PATIENTS TO
TESTIFY ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO
WOULD BE NEGATIVELY IMPACTED BY
A COURT APPEARANCE. AND THERE
ARE OFTEN THERE ARE TIMES WHEN
PATIENTS ARE LOCATED IN
HOSPITALS AND OTHER COUNTY IS AN
ANOTHER IMPORTANT POINT IS AS WE
ALL KNOW THE STATE'S MENTAL
HEALTH CRISIS UNFORTUNATELY
CONTINUES TO GROW. AND BEHAVIOR
HEALTH EXPERTS ARE IN SHORT
SUPPLY IF CLINICIANS MUST TAKE
THE TIME TO ATTEND COURT
PROCEEDINGS IN PERSON THAT
IMPACTS CONTINUITY OF CARE NOT
ONLY FOR THE CORPORATIST
OPPONENT BUT OTHER STAFF IN
PATIENT CARE. BACK AT THE
FACILITIES WHERE THEY ARE
WORKING SO I'LL RAPIDAN GREAT
COULD LOSE YOUR HEARING FOUR
MINUTES AND SOME SORRY IN
CONCLUSION IT'S IMPORTANT TO
EMPHASIZE THAT REMOTE OP
APPEARANCES ARE OPTIONAL. AND WE
ARE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS THANK YOU FOR YOUR
PATIENCE GREAT NOTE THANK YOU
FOR THAT ANY OTHER. SUPPORT WHEN
THIS IS IN THE ROOM. MISTER
BELOW NOW. OKAY THING NINE I ANY
LEAD WITNESSES IN OPPOSITION.
GOOD AFTERNOON MISTER CHAIR AND
MEMBERS CENTER BROWN ON BEHALF
OF S. C. ARE YOU CALIFORNIA
FIRST I WANT TO THANK THE AUTHOR

US LAST WEEK AND AGAIN YESTERDAY

THE STAKEHOLDERS TO DISCUSS OUR
CONCERNS WE'VE MADE GREAT
PROGRESS- BUT WE STILL HAVE
CONCERNS THAT AREN'T ADDRESSED
BY THE COMMITTEE AMENDMENTS.
I'LL JUST COVER THEM QUICKLY ONE
IS THAT DURING REMOTE
PROCEEDINGS THERE'S STILL NO WAY
TO ENSURE EFFECTIVE
COMMUNICATION BETWEEN A QUARTER
PERDER COURT REPORTER AND THE
JUDICIAL OFF OFFICERS SO WE'D
LIKE FOR THE JUDICIAL OFFICER TO
BE PRESENT IN THE SAME ROOM AS
THE COURT INTERPRETER AND COURT
REPORTER. ALSO WE ARE CONCERNED
ABOUT SOME COURTS DON'T HAVE
ENOUGH. EQUIPMENT TO CONDUCT
CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS ALSO WERE
REQUESTING THAT THERE BE MINIMUM
STANDARDS ON WHAT EQUIPMENT IS
MINIMALLY REQUIRED. AND LASTLY
WE BELIEVE THERE MUST BE A
TRANSPARENT WAY TO SOLICIT
FEEDBACK FROM THE PUBLIC- AND
THEN TO HAVE THAT INFORMATION
REPORTED ANNUALLY TO THE
LEGISLATURE. THESE ARE SOME OF
THE ISSUES THAT NEED MORE
DISCUSSION BUT- WE'RE LOOKING
FORWARD TO CONTINUING THE

AN INFORMATIONAL HEARING I STILL

TESTIMONY DAVID I KNOW YOU HAVE
A COMMITMENT TO WORKING WITH
STAKEHOLDERS SO WITH THAT I'M
GONNA VOTED OUT TODAY. BUT I DID
IT. SENATE DRAWS- THANK YOU. THE
OTHER AND I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON
THIS FOR THREE YEARS NOW- SINCE
THE PANDEMIC AND- I AND MY PARTY
AND THEN THE BUDGET THAT
OVERSEES THE JUDICIAL COUNCIL-
REALLY TOUGH. TOUGH THINGS
BECAUSE WE WANT NOTHING MORE
THAN TO HAVE COMPLETE ACCESS FOR
EVERYBODY NO MATTER WHERE YOU
LIVE. NO MATTER IF YOU'RE RICH
OR POOR- AND THIS IS REALLY
RAISED A LOT OF QUESTIONS ABOUT
. HOW YOU GET TO WHERE WE WANT
TO GET WHICH IS A- BUT WE'RE NOT
PERFECTLY OUT AWAY FROM THE
PANDEMIC YET AND SO ALL OF THIS
IS JUST MAKING IT A BUMPY ROAD.
I KNOW WE WILL GET TO THE FINAL
A IN A VERY GOOD WAY BUT I STILL
HAVE- CONCERNS AND- THE SAME
CONCERNS WE'VE BEEN TALKING
ABOUT. ALL ALONG- IT'S HARD TO
MAKE THESE FINAL FINAL DECISIONS
WHEN WE'RE STILL GOING THROUGH A
PROCESS HERE OF NOT EVERYONE
HAVING. THE TECHNOLOGY THAT THEY
NEED THE COURTS NOT HAVING. A
STANDARD OF MINIMAL TECHNOLOGY-
AND ALTHOUGH SOMEONE SAID A
LITTLE BIT EARLIER- THAT IT'S
GETTING BETTER. GETTING BETTER
DOESN'T QUITE ADD UP TO. A FINAL
DECISION AND THAT'S WHAT I'M
MOST CONCERNED ABOUT IN THIS
PROCESS BUT I HAVE ENORMOUS
FAITH IN THE AND THE AUTHOR. OF
WORKS VERY WELL WITH EVERYONE
WHO. HAS YOU KNOW SERIOUS
CONCERNS AND THE SO I'M GOING TO
BE BE VOTING TODAY ON SENATOR

THAT MOTION A NOTED WILLIAM. SO
I'M REALLY LIKE TO THE CLOSE-
WELL THANK YOU THANKS FOR THE
COMMENTS THANK YOU THE
STAKEHOLDERS FOR THEIR
PARTICIPATION AND THEIR
FLEXIBILITY COUPLE THINGS ONE.
IS THAT THE SPECIFICALLY IN
TERMS OF THOSE WHO WHOSE LIBERTY
IS AT RISK I AM COMMITTED TO
ENSURING THAT ANYONE
IRRESPECTIVE OF WHETHER IT'S
CRIMINAL PROCEEDING OR- JUVENILE
DETENTION OR A CIVIL COMMITMENT
IF SOMEONE'S LIBERTY IS AT RISK
AND THEY HAVE THE CONFIDENCE IN
THE CAPACITY TO. ASK THAT THEY
BE PHYSICALLY PRESENT THEY HAVE
A RIGHT TO BE PHYSICALLY
PRESENT. THERE ARE SOME
CIRCUMSTANCES THOUGH
PARTICULARLY WITH RESPECT TO
JUVENILES AND TO THOSE WHO ARE
MENTALLY ILL WORK WHERE IT IT
ACTUALLY WORKS A HUGE DISSERVICE
TO THEM TO HAVE TO HAVE THEM
TRANSPORTED FROM STATE HOSPITAL
TO THE COURT. TO JAIL THAT KIND
OF THING. WHAT IF SOMEBODY IF
THEY ARE. IF THEY ARE LUCID NAY
CAN MAKE THAT DECISION THEN WE
WANT THEM TO BE ABLE TO EXERCISE
THAT RIGHT NUMBER ONE. NUMBER
TWO IS THAT- I'VE SAID THIS. I
THINK YOU ALL HEARD ME SAY THE
IDEAL CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE
EVERYBODY IS IN THE COURTROOM
ALL AT THE SAME TIME. IN TERMS
OF BEING ABLE TO UNDERSTAND ONE
ANOTHER IN ORDER TO GET AN
ACCURATE RECORD IN ORDER TO GET.
ACCURATE TRANSLATION TRIP
TATIAN- BUT ALL HEARINGS ARE NOT
EXACTLY THE SAME THERE ARE SOME
HEARINGS THE ESPECIALLY IN THE
CIVIL CONTEXT THAT ARE DIFFERENT
THAN FOR EXAMPLE THE TRIALS
SUMMER JUST MOTIONS TO CONTINUE
THAT KIND OF THING AND WE'RE
CONTINUING TO WORK TO SORT OF.
FIGURE OUT. WHAT WHAT'S OF
CONSEQUENCE WHAT SUBSTANTIVE IN
IN WHAT IS PROCEDURAL BUT I AM
IS SENATOR ALSO IS I'M CONFIDENT
THAT WE WILL CONTINUE TO MAKE
PROGRESS SELF. THANK YOU ALL

FOLLOW ON TO A BILL THAT SOME OF
YOU VOTER LINE WAS ENACTED- LAST

PLATFORMS- THAT BILL DEALT WITH
THREATS OF FOR EXAMPLE VIOLENCE

VIOLENCE. THEN YOU COULD NOTIFY
THE PLATFORM AS THE PLATFORM TO
TAKE DOWN THAT THE COMMUNICATOR
THAT. REMEMBER THAT HANDLE IS
YOU COULD ASK WOULD IF THEY
DIDN'T DO IT YOU GO TO COURT AND
SEEK INJUNCTION AND IF THEY
STILL DIDN'T DO IT THEN THE
COURT HAD THE REMEDIES.
AVAILABLE IN TERMS OF CONTEMPT.
THIS IS UP BY ANALOGY THE SAME
KIND OF THING WITH RESPECT TO
THOSE WHO ARE DEALING DRUGS SO
IF AN INDIVIDUAL OR A- OF THAT
LAW ENFORCEMENT SEES THAT
SOMEONE IS USING A PARTICULAR
HANDLE TO DEAL DRUGS. THEY CAN
ASK THE THAT THAT. BASICALLY
THAT HANDLE BE DISABLED THAT
THAT INFORMATION BE TAKEN DOWN.
NOW OTHER SOME CHALLENGES THERE
WE UNDERSTAND THERE'S SOME
CHALLENGES CHALLENGES IN TERMS
OF THE TECHNOLOGY BEING ABLE TO
IDENTIFY TAKE DOWN. BUT THE KEY
TO THIS IS THAT THERE'S NOTICE
