OPPORTUNITY BEFORE YOUR
COMMITTEE. TODAY CAN GOOD
MORNING TO ALL OF YOU. I'M HERE
TO PRESENT AB NINETY ONE A BILL
THAT WILL STRENGTHEN OUR SKILLED
WORKFORCE IN OUR BI NATIONAL
REGION BY IMPROVING. EQUITY AND
A TO HIGHER EDUCATION AND DEGREE
ATTAINMENT. AB NINETY ONE IS
BASED OFF A SIMILAR PROPOSAL
ENACTED IN THE TWO THOUSAND
FIFTEEN. THAT ALLOWS THE
STUDENTS WHO RESIDE NEAR THE
CALIFORNIA BORDER WITH NEVADA.
TO PAY A DISCOUNTED RATE TUITION
RATE AT LAKE TAHOE COMMUNITY
COLLEGE HERE IN CALIFORNIA. MY
STAFF AND I HAVE ALSO IDENTIFIED
SIMILAR PROGRAMS IN EVERY OTHER
U. S. STATE THAT BORDERS MEXICO
. SOME THAT ARE ALSO FUNDED BY
THEIR STATE LEGISLATURES. AB
NINETY ONE WILL CREATE A FIVE
YEAR PILOT PROGRAM TO PROVIDE
LOW INCOME STUDENTS WHO LIVE
NEAR THE CALIFORNIA MEXICO
BORDER. AN EXEMPTION FROM THE
NON RESIDENT TUITION RATE ALSO
KNOWN THE I'VE ALSO KNOWN AS THE
OUT OF STATE TUITION. WHEN
ENROLLING AT COMMUNITY COLLEGES
LOCATED NEAR THE BORDER IN SAN
DIEGO AND IMPERIAL COUNTY. WE
ARE UNIQUE BI NATIONAL REGION
WERE OVER A HUNDRED FORTY
THOUSAND PEOPLE HUNDRED FORTY
THOUSAND PEOPLE CROSSED THE
INTERNATIONAL BORDER EVERY
SINGLE DAY. TO GO TO SCHOOL TO
GO TO WORK OR JUST TO SPEND TIME
WITH THEIR LOVED ONES- OR GO
SHOPPING. EVEN THOUGH IT IS A
UNIQUE AND ROBUST TWO HUNDRED
FIFTY BILLION DOLLAR ANNUAL
ECONOMIC REGION WE STILL SUFFER
FROM MANY OF THE COMMON PROBLEMS
IMPACTING OUR REGION INCLUDING
THE DEMAND FOR SKILLED WORKFORCE
. THAT DEMAND GAP IS EXPECTED TO
GROW TO TWENTY THOUSAND BY
TWENTY THIRTY ACCORDING TO. A
REPORT FROM THE SAN DIEGO
REGIONAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
CORPORATION. IN ORDER TO MEET
THIS DEMAND OF WORK FORCE WE
NEED TO EDUCATE MORE STUDENTS.
AND THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO DO
THAT IS BY REDUCING THE MOST
SIGNIFICANT BARRIER THE COST OF
TUITION. AB NINETY ONE ALSO
ADDRESSES RECOMMENDATIONS
IDENTIFIED IN THE GOVERNOR'S
ROAD MAP FOR POST SECONDARY
EDUCATION. SUCH AS ALLOWING
ADDITIONAL FIRST GENERATION
COLLEGE STUDENTS LIKE MYSELF. TO
FOSTER INCLUSION IN OUR
INSTITUTIONS REDUCE DEGREE
ATTAINMENT GAPS AND PREPARED A
MORE DIVERSE POPULATION AMONG
OUR WORK FORCE. THIS BILL
SUPPORTED BY A COALITION OF
BUSINESS LIKE THE SANTA REGIONAL
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. AND
EDUCATORS LIKE THE COMMUTE

HELLO MY NAME IS WAS A PRESS I
AM THE STUDENT TRUSTEE OF THE
SOUTHWEST INC MANY COLLEGE
DISTRICT I'M HERE TO EXPRESS THE
UP MOST IMPORTANCE OF AB NINETY
ONE FOR THE FUTURE OF LOW INCOME
IN BI NATIONAL STUDENT. I CAN
HEAR FROM THE DISTRICT WHERE IS
VERY CLOSE TO THE BORDER WITH
ONE OF OUR CAMPUSES BEING A MERE
TWO MILES AWAY FROM THE SAN
YSIDRO PORT OF ENTRY- OUR
PROXIMITY MEXICO MEANS THAT MANY
STUDENTS IN OUR REGION- FACE
UNIQUE CHALLENGES IN PURSUING
THEIR EDUCATIONAL GOALS. AB
NINETY ONE REPRESENTS AN
INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY FOR
STUDENTS TO OVERCOME THE
STRUGGLES WE FACE. OVER THE PAST
MONTHS I'VE SPOKEN EXTENSIVELY
FOR THE OF THE BENEFITS. AND
THAT THE BILL WOULD BRING FOR
THOSE WHO LIVE DIRECTLY ACROSS
FROM THE BORDER. MANY OF OUR
STUDENTS ARE BURDENED BY THE
NEED TO PAY FOR THOSE OUT OF
STATE TUITION FEES DESPITE JUST
LIVING A FEW MILES AWAY FROM THE
BORDER. I PERSONALLY HEARD FROM
STUDENTS IN MEXICO INCLUDING MY
CLOSE FRIENDS HAVE EMPHASIZED.
THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS BILL IN
MAKING EDUCATION MORE
ACCESSIBLE. ONE SUCH STUDENT IS
EITHER ON THEIR OWN SHE IS A
FORMER STUDENT GOVERNMENT
PRESIDENT FOR THE IMPERIAL
VALLEY COLLEGE A COMMUNICATIVE
DISTRICT. IT SAYS DAILY COMMUTE
BETWEEN MEXICALI AND IMPERIAL
VALLEY. MAY BE SHORT BUT THE
FINANCIAL STRAIN OF ATTENDING
COLLEGES OVERWHELMING. THROUGH
CONVERSATIONS WITH HER AND MANY
OF HER AND MY FRIENDS WE'VE COME
TO UNDERSTAND THE PROFOUND
IMPACT AB NINETY ONE WOULD HAVE
ON THEIR LIVES. THESE STORIES
HAVE SHOWN ME HOW FORTUNATE I AM
TO HAVE THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF
WHERE I CAN SEND COLLEGE OVER
HERE IN THE U. S. AND I STILL
SEE HOW E. B. NINETY ONE CAN
CHANGE THE TRAJECTORY OF MANY OF
THEIR LIVES. IN COLLABORATION
WITH OTHER STUDENT LEADERS WE
AUTHORIZED A RESOLUTION FOR THE
STUDENT CENTER FOR COMMITTEE.
CALIFORNIA COMMUNITY COLLEGES AS
A STRIP WITH THE EARLIER THIS
YEAR ADVOCATING FOR AB NINETY
ONE. THE RESOLUTION RECEIVED
OVERWHELMING SUPPORT FROM MANY
MANY COLLEGE DISTRICTS. ACROSS
THE STATE INCLUDING SOME OF YOUR
OWN- THE WIDESPREAD BACKING
DEMONSTRATES A RECOGNITION OF
THE NEW SUPPORT FOR A BI NINETY
ONE. AND HOW IT SHOWS THAT IT
CAN SUPPORT AND UPLIFT LOW
INCOME AND BY NATIONAL STUDENTS
IN THEIR PURSUIT OF HIGHER
EDUCATION. ONE STUDENT OUR
STUDENTS AND YOUR STUDENTS WILL
CONTINUE TO ADVOCATE FOR AB
NINETY ONE. ALONGSIDE COUNTLESS
COMMUNITY COLLEGE DISTRICTS

CHILD. ZACH DIED OF AN ACTUAL
DRUG OVERDOSE. JANUARY SEVENTH
TWENTY TWENTY HE WAS ONLY
NINETEEN. I JUST GRADUATED HIGH
SCHOOL SEVEN MONTHS EARLIER. HE
SPENT THE LAST NINE MONTHS OF
HIS YOUNG LIFE IN REHABS AND
SOBER LIVING HOMES AND HE WAS
MAKING GREAT PROGRESS IN HIS
RECOVERY. HOWEVER HE MADE A
FATEFUL CHOICE TO SPEND THE
NIGHT WITH AN OLD PARTING FRIEND
OF HIS ON JANUARY SIXTH. SEVERAL
OF ZACK'S RELAPSES IN HIS
RECOVERY JOURNEY HAD BEEN WITH
THIS YOUNG MAN. THAT NIGHT ZACH
TRY TO MAKE SURE OF HER WANT TO
MESS WITH THIS FRIEND FOR THE
FIRST TIME. DURING THIS TIME HIS
FRIEND FACETIME SOME MUTUAL

WOULD LIKE THIS. START BY
EXEMPTING THE COMMITTEE
AMENDMENTS AS OUTLINED IN THE
ANALYSIS- I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO
TAKE A MOMENT TO THANK YOU
MISTER CHAIR I FOR YOUR
THOUGHTFUL SUGGESTIONS IN OUR
CONSULTANTS DILIGENCE WHILE
WORKING WITH ME MY STAFF AND
STAKEHOLDERS. THE BILL BEFORE
YOU TODAY AS A RESULT OF HARD
WORK MANY CONVERSATIONS REFLECTS
EXTENSIVE AMENDMENTS TAKEN FROM
THE EDUCATION COMMITTEE CHAIR
CSEA ETA THE CREDENTIALED SCHOOL
NURSES AND THE LICENSED
VOCATIONAL NURSES. AB SEVENTEEN
TWENTY TWO WOULD PROVIDE THE
OPTION FOR LOCAL EDUCATION
AGENCIES TO HIRE A LICENSED
VOCATIONAL NURSE UNDER THE
REQUIRED SUPERVISION OF A
CREDENTIALED SCHOOL NURSE. IS
WELL KNOWN THERE IS A STATE WIDE
SHORTAGE OF CREDENTIALED SCHOOL
NURSES IN CALIFORNIA THE RECENT
PANDEMIC HAS ONLY HIGHLIGHTED
THIS CRISIS BRINGING THE PROBLEM
TO THE FOREFRONT OF MY
CONVERSATIONS NEARLY EVERY DAY.
IS SCHOOL NURSING CALIFORNIA IS
REQUIRED TO BE IN OUR END AND
EARN A CREDENTIAL IN ADDITION TO
THEIR NURSING DEGREE THE
CREDENTIALING PROCESS WHICH IS
SIMILAR TO WHAT TEACHERS GO
THROUGH CAN TAKE UP TO TWO
YEARS. THEY'RE ONLY A FEW
SCHOOLS AVAILABLE FOR WHO WHO
PROVIDE THE CREDENTIALING
PROGRAM AND COST MORE THAN TEN
THOUSAND DOLLARS. THESE FACTORS
ALONG WITH MANY OTHERS
CONTRIBUTE TO THE EXISTING AND
CONTINUED SHORTAGES OF RN'S AND
CREDENTIALED SCHOOL NURSES
THROUGHOUT CALIFORNIA. JUST ONE
EXAMPLE THE SCHOOL DISTRICT I
REPRESENT HAS GONE WITHOUT A
SCHOOL NURSE FOR THREE PLUS
YEARS. SOME SCHOOLS ARE FORCED
TO HIRE TO OUR HEALTH CLERK IN
PLACE OF A MORE QUALIFIED HEALTH
CARE PROFESSIONAL. AS A RESULT
THE REALITY FOR MANY STUDENTS
MEANS GOING WITHOUT A SCHOOL
NURSE THIS LEAVES SCHOOL STAFF
WITHOUT MEDICAL TRAINING TO
APPLY BANDAGES DISPENSED
MEDICATIONS MANAGE ALLERGIES AND
ASTHMA. MONITOR BLUE CLOTHES
BLOOD GLUCOSE LEVELS AND HANDLE
MEDICAL EMERGENCIES WITH
STUDENTS PRESIDENT ARMS FACING
UNPRECEDENTED INCREASES IN MY
MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES AND TYPE
ONE DIABETES. WE NEED MORE
HEALTH CARE PER FRESH ON OUR

THE BIG PICTURE IS I WANT TO
GIVE YOU A MORE DETAILED. LOOK
AT WHAT HAPPENS IN A RURAL
COUNTY RIGHT NOW WITH OUR-
SHORTAGE OF OUR ENDS. OF THIS IS
IF ABSOLUTE CRITICAL BILL TO
MAKE SURE WE CAN HIRE PROBABLY
MEDICALLY TRAINED NURSES FOR
OURS OUR STUDENTS. WITH THE
COVERT NINETEEN PANDEMIC WE LOST
A GREAT NUMBER OF NURSES IN A
FIELD THAT WAS ALREADY VERY
THIN. AFTER WE CAME OUT THERE
WAS NOBODY OUT THERE WHO WANT TO
WORK IN SCHOOLS THEY WERE BURNT
OUT. THEY'VE BEEN BEAT UP-
BECAUSE WE WERE THE LAST BIG
INSTITUTION REQUIRE MASKING AND
THAT WAS TOUGH AND THEY GOT THE
BRUNT OF A LOT OF NASTY PHONE
CALLS- WHEN THE BALCONY SCHOOL
STARTED THIS TWENTY TWO TWENTY
THREE SCHOOL YEAR. FOUR OF NINE
SCHOOL DISTRICTS AND THREE OF
OUR FIVE INDEPENDENT CHARTERS
WERE WITHOUT A NURSE. THIS IS
NOT DUE TO LACK OF EFFORT MY
OFFICE HELP THESE- LOCAL
EDUCATION AGENCIES SEARCH FOR
NURTURES WE COULD NOT FIND ANY
OUR HANDS WE EVEN WORKED WITH A
NON PUBLIC. AGENCIES TO TRY TO
BRING IN NURSES. AND THERE
WEREN'T ANY OUT THERE. BY THE
YEAR'S END WE HAD THE THREE
SCHOOL ENTITIES STILL WITHOUT
RN'S. MEDICAL ISSUES WERE BEING
HANDLED BY HEALTH AIDS AND OTHER
STAFF SUCH AS SECRETARIES
CUSTODIANS WHOEVER WAS THERE THE
TEACHERS. NOT AN IDEAL SITUATION
FOR STUDENTS. IN MY NEIGHBORING
COUNTY TO THE NORTH AS YOU HEARD
IF YOU'RE COUNTY THEY'VE BEEN
OUT WITHOUT A NURSE FOR THREE
YEARS. THEY'RE ENTERING YEAR
FOUR I JUST REACHED OUT TO THE
COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT LAST
NIGHT. THERE WAS NOBODY ON THE
HORIZON RURAL COUNTIES HAVE A
VERY DIFFICULT A VERY SMALL
POOL- TO PULL FROM. WHAT WE
LEARNED OVER THE LAST TWO YEARS
HOWEVER IS THERE ARE A LOT OF L.
B. AND CENTER IN OUR SMALL
COMMUNITIES AND THEY WANT TO
WORK HOWEVER. UNDER CURRENT
STATUTE THEY CAN'T AB. SEVENTEEN
TWENTY TWO WILL ALLOW US. TO
BROUGH QUALIFY. NURSES INTO THE
CLIP IN OUR SCHOOLS. UNDER THIS
. OF AN- AND GIVES US A FIVE
YEAR WINDOW OR FIVE YOUR IF YOU
HAVE THAT- WHILE WE- GET MORE
NURSES INTO THE FIELD- IT WOULD
ALLOW MY OFFICE WHICH ACTUALLY
TO MY OFFICE EIGHT MONTHS TO
FIND A REGISTERED NURSE TO. TAKE
A POSITION UP WOULD ALLOW US TO
OVERSEE THE SMALLER SCHOOL
DISTRICTS AND CHARTER SCHOOLS
THERE ARE ENDS IT WOULD EVEN
ALLOW US TO DO IT IN OUR COUNTY
MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WITH
MY NEIGHBOR SIERRA COUNTY. SO
THEY CAN HIRE AN LPN AND MINERS
COULD OVERSEE THAT POSITION. AT
WE KNOW THAT STUDENTS ARE IN
GREATER NEED AFTER THE PANDEMIC
AND TO LV ENDS CAN PROVIDE THAT
ASSISTANCE AS WE WAIT FOR MORE
OUR INS INTO THE FIELD. THERE'S
INCREASE MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES
AND SO THIS IS ABSOLUTELY
CRITICAL I RESPECTFULLY URGE
YOU. FOR YES ON THIS BILL WHEN
YOU GET A QUORUM. AND THE HELP
MAKE WORLD COUNTY SCHOOLS SAFER.

DECREASED LOW BIRTH WEIGHT.
BIRTH AN INFANT MORTALITY AND
INCREASED BREASTFEEDING AN
IMPROVEMENT MATERNAL MENTAL

PER YEAR. AND PAID PARENTAL
LEAVE BENEFITS EMPLOYERS BY
IMPROVING RETENTION
PRODUCTIVITY. AND LABOR FORCE
PARTICIPATION WE ALL KNOW THAT-
TRYING TO FIND THE RIGHT MOMENT
TO START A FAMILY AS AN
UNNECESSARY BUT VERY COMMON
STRUGGLE ESPECIALLY FOR
CALIFORNIANS ONE OF THE- MOST
EXPENSIVE PLACES TO LIVE AND
WORK IN OUR NATION. IT'S
ESPECIALLY CHALLENGING FOR
FACULTY AND STAFF AT OUR
INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER

WAS WRITTEN BY DOCTOR ARE
MARGUERITE- RIGHT IDEA OF WE'VE
HEARD FROM MANY OF OUR FACULTY
MEMBERS AT THE FRUSTRATION THAT
EXPERIENCE AND WOULD LIKE TO
TAKE A MOMENT TO SHARE SOME OF
THE NARRATIVES ON THEIR BEHALF
AS TO WHY WERE IN STRONG SUPPORT
OF THIS MEASURE- FROM DOCTOR AND
LUNA FROM SACRAMENTO STATE. WHEN
I DECIDE TO HAVE MY BABY I HAVE
BEEN STRESSING OUT ABOUT. ABOUT
IT SINCE I FOUND OUT ABOUT EARLY
POLICY I WAS BASICALLY TRYING TO
TAKE MY DELIVERY TO MAXIMIZE MY
TIME OFF TO SPEND TIME WITH MY
BABY. I HAD UNDERGONE
ACUPUNCTURE FERTILITY TREATMENT
FOR A HALF OF THE YEAR AND
EXPERIENCE A MISCARRIAGE IN THE
MIDDLE OF THE SEMESTER AND TAKE
ANY TIME OFF AFTERWARD. AT THE
POINT MY DOCTOR SUGGESTED I
MIGHT NEED TO TAKE MEDICAL LEAVE
OR EVEN LOOK FOR A NEW JOB IF I
WANT TO HAVE A BABY. I CONTINUE
WITH THE TREATMENT AND FIVE
MONTHS LATER AFTER THE KOBE
LOCKDOWN I WAS ABLE TO SUSTAIN A
PREGNANCY. I'M SURE THIS IS
PARTLY BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE TO
DEAL WITH THE LONG COMMUTE
ANYMORE I WAS STILL VERY
STRESSED BECAUSE THERE IS NO WAY
I COULD TAKE THE SEMESTER. OFF
WITHOUT GOING WITHOUT PAYING.
ALSO FROM- DOCTOR FRANCE MERCER
CAL POLY. I'M CA TO OUR C. AND
THIS MISSION HOWEVER IN MY LATE
THIRTIES I WANT CHILDREN AND
I'VE LEARNED IN THE PAST TWO
YEARS HOW INADEQUATE CSU'S.
LEAVE POLICY IS. PARTICULARLY

IS SIMPLY NOT ENOUGH TO RECOVER
FROM DELIVERY OR ALTERNATIVELY
NOT ENOUGH TIME TO ESTABLISH
TOUCH. ATTACHMENT PARENTING WITH
AN ADOPTED CHILD. TO TAKE LONGER
LEAVE OR CURRENT POLICY REQUIRES

IN THIS ISSUE. THIS CAN BE GREAT
THIRTY DAYS PAID LEAVE TO
WELCOME A NEW CHILD INTO THEIR
HOME. BASED ON WIDESPREAD
DEMANDS FROM FACULTY. DURING THE
LAST ROUND OF CONTRACT
NEGOTIATIONS IN TWENTY ONE AND
TWENTY TWO CFA PROPOSED A FULL
SEMESTER OF PAID LEAVE FOR NEW
PARENTS. THIS IS BENEFICIAL FOR
THE FACULTY MEMBER IN THEIR NEW
CHILD IT WOULD PROVIDE
UNINTERRUPTED TO SCHEDULE FOR.
BOTH MANAGERS WOULD NOT HAVE TO
SEEK OUT AND HIRE SUBSTITUTES
MID SEMESTER. IN NEGOTIATIONS
EVERY CFA PROPOSAL ON THIS ISSUE
WAS RIGHT WITH THE FIRM
CATEGORICAL REJECTION FROM C.
ISSUE MANAGEMENT. THEY WOULD NOT
ACCEPT THE INITIAL SIXTEEN WEEK
PROPOSAL EIGHTY DAYS. NOR WOULD
THEY ACCEPT SIXTY DAYS FIFTY
DAYS FORTY DAYS RIVEN THIRTY
FIVE DAYS. ALL OF THESE
PROPOSALS WERE SUMMARILY
REJECTED BY MANAGEMENT. WE WERE
LEFT WITH THE STATUS QUO OF
THIRTY DAYS. THE CLOSER
NEGOTIATIONS SEE IF I PROPOSED
THE WORKING GROUP ON THE TOPIC
OF PARENTAL SUPPORT TO PROVIDE A
NON BINDING SET OF
RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE
CHANCELLOR. WORKING GROUP MET
PERIODICALLY FROM JUNE TWENTY
TWO THROUGH MAY TWENTY THREE FOR
A TOTAL OF TWENTY THREE HOURS OF
NEGOTIATIONS. CFA AGAIN PROPOSED
A FULL SEMESTER OF LEAVE WAS
AGAIN REJECTED. THE ISSUE
MANAGERS COULD NOT OFFER A
RATIONALE FOR THIS REJECTION.
INDEED COULD NOT EVEN PROVIDE A
FULL ACCOUNTING OF HOW WHEN AND
WHICH FACULTY MEMBERS TAKE
PARENTAL LEAVE. THE PARTIES THEN
DISCUSSED OTHER ASPECTS OF
PARENTAL SUPPORT. INCLUDING
CHILD CARE AVAILABILITY OF
LACTATION ROOMS CHANGING TABLES
AND RESTROOMS AND SUPPORT FOR
LGBTQ PLUS FAMILIES. AFTER THE
FINAL MEETING IN FEBRUARY OF
TWENTY THREE THE PARTIES
EXCHANGED EMAILS REGARDING EDITS
TO THE DRAFT RECOMMENDATION
DOCUMENT. THROUGHOUT THIS
PROCESS SINCE THE ISSUE
MANAGEMENT WAS UNWILLING TO
AGREE TO ANY RECOMMENDATIONS
OTHER THAN ESSENTIALLY. WEBSITE
SHOULD BE UPDATED AND BETTER
PATHWAYS TO INFORMATION FLOW
SHOULD BE EXPLORED. WHEN FORCE
WITH A BACK AND FORTH EDITING
PROCESS THAT EXCLUDED VIRTUALLY
ALL OF C. F. A.'S
RECOMMENDATIONS ARGUMENTS AND
ANALYSES. CFA MEMBERS FINALLY
GAVE UP HOPE IN A CONSENSUS
DOCUMENT. THE NEED FOR THIS
LEGISLATION IS CLEAR. IT IS A
BENEFIT TO FACULTY TO OUR
STUDENTS AND THE MANAGERS AND
YET SEE ISSUE NEGOTIATORS ARE
UNWILLING TO BARGAIN IN GOOD
FAITH. FURTHER THE COST CAN
EASILY BE ABSORBED BY THE C.

PART. GIVING SYNDICALISM. PLEASE
GO AHEAD JUST GIVE ME TIME TO
GET SAID- THANK YOU I HAVE HAD
AGE YES I MISS TO TEST WHICH I
APOLOGIZE FOR AND BOOKED A
ANOTHER CAN MEETING ACTUALLY
THIS TIME. BUT THIS BILL IS
FAMILIAR TO ME I KNOW IT'S A
BILL THAT WE'VE HEARD IN THE
PAST- AND AS THOSE WHO HAVE
FOLLOWED BY COMMENTS ON THE
SENATE FLOOR IN AREAS LIKE THIS-
I'VE ALWAYS BEEN CHALLENGE
BECAUSE OF COURSE THE GOALS OF
THIS BILL ARE WORTHY ABSOLUTELY
WORTHY- ARGUABLY NEEDED- BUT THE
CHALLENGE IS ALWAYS THAT WE ARE
ELECTED BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE
STATE UNIVERSITY TO. ENGAGE IN
COLLECTIVE BARGAINING WITH THE
REPRESENTED EMPLOYEES- NOT JUST
OF THE CSU BUT IN SO MANY OTHER
PLACES IN OUR STATE. AND WE ARE
CERTAINLY I SUPPORT THE
COLLECTIVE BARGAINING PROCESS.
AND- FEEL THAT ISSUES LIKE THIS
SIR FOR THE- HAVE THE
CONVERSATIONS ACROSS THE TABLE
RESPECTFULLY TO TRY TO WORK OUT
THE ISSUES OF. OF BENEFITS
INCLUDING SALARY. THAT THE UNION
HAS RAISED THIS ISSUE I KNOW AND
I'M AS I UNDERSTAND IT FROM. THE
ANALYSIS IN IN THOSE
CONVERSATIONS THAT THERE'S
AGREEMENT SIGNED WHAT THE PAY IS
GOING TO BE WHAT THE BENEFITS
ARE GOING TO BE- AND AT THIS
POINT IN TIME THEY HAVEN'T GONE
AS FAR AS THIS BILL WOULD
REQUIRE- AND SO FOOT FOR FROM
FROM MY POINT OF VIEW AT LEAST
IT'S- IT'S TO SHOWING RESPECT
FOR THE COLLECTIVE BARGAINING
PROCESS THAT MAKES ME NOT
WILLING TO JUST. HAVE A FIAT
FROM THE LEGISLATURE AND IN THIS
PLACE IN ANOTHER PLACE. I'M NOT
JUST DECLARED THIS BILL BUT I
RESPECT THE AUTHOR AND- AND THE
GOALS THAT SHE HAS FOR. THE WORK
FORCE AND WHY THIS WOULD BE A
POSITIVE THING AND THAT'S WHY
FOR ME IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT I
CAN SUPPORT TODAY. LET ME DO IT
MR HARD LIKE I GUESS I'LL ASK
YOU TO RESPOND AS WE FROM
DOCTORS- BUT IT IF YOU WOULDN'T
MIND. YEAH I APPRECIATE COMMON
US. THIS IS NOT A COLLECTIVE
COLLECTIVE BARGAINING ISSUE WE
TRIED OVER THE PAST DECADES
POSSIBLY MORE THE CSU JUST
REFUSES TO BARGAIN THIS ISSUE
WITH US AND THIS IS. A VERY
IMPORTANT ISSUE TO OUR UNIONS.
OUR MEMBERS REALLY WANT THIS
POLICY THIS IS WHY WE CONTINUE
TO- I INTRODUCED THIS BILL.
APPRECIATE THAT SO SHOW FOR MY
POOR- I GENERALLY AGREE WITH
CYNICAL. ABOUT THE YOU KNOW THE
BROADER IS ABOUT THE YOU KNOW
AND THAT WE'RE COLLECTIVE
BARGAINING IS. AN APPROPRIATE
AND REASONABLE FAT THAT WEEK WE
SHOULD USE THAT PATH. TO HIS
POINT I THINK TO YOUR POINT
FISHY GIVEN. SORT OF THE LACK OF
PRIVACY I THINK THIS TO MY MIND.
EXCEEDS A THRESHOLD- AND THIS IS
A FAIRLY FUNDAMENTAL ISSUES
FORCED I'VE IS HEARING AIDS
REYES FORCES LEGISLATURE HEALY
CONCERNS THE MATTER OF. EQUITY
IN SORT OF A CENTRAL RIGHTS AND
SERVE OUR OBLIGATIONS TO OUR.
PUBLIC WORKERS. AND SO WITH THAT
MY NUMBER I'M TO THE BILL- WE DO
HAVE A CLUE IS NO AS TO AS YOU
KNOW WE WANT. IS I THINK THIS
COMMITTEE- HEARD SAN. BE IT AND
I LEAST TWO ON LABOR FROM THIS.
DID SENTIMENT TO DO SO ON FOR
REYES. AS A RELAY TO. PROCESS
BUT WHEN WE DO HAVE A QUARTER WE
WILL TAKE HIM. I WILL BE
SHIPPED. ASSEMBLY MEMBER AS
YOU'D LIKE TO CLOSE WELL I WANT
TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS
AND FOR YOUR TIME ON THIS ISSUE
IT MIGHT JUST OUT THAT IF NMO
YOU. COMES TO PASS THAN THAT
AND- YOU COULD MOVE FORWARD
WITHIN THE COLLECTIVE BARGAINING
PROCESS- WHAT I'VE HEARD IT SAID
IT'S BEEN INCREDIBLY
UNSUCCESSFUL UP TO THIS TIME I
APPRECIATE THE CHAIR'S COMMENTS.
THE QUICKER WE ACT THE MORE
QUICKLY WE'RE GONNA SUPPORT
BIRTHING PEOPLE UP PRIMARILY BY
POCKET LGBT BIRTHING PEOPLE
PRIMARILY WOMEN. BUT ALSO
CALIFORNIA'S FAMILY CALIFORNIA'S
FUTURE CHILDREN AND SO AS A
SOCIETY AS A WHOLE WILL BE IN A
BETTER PLACE AND NOT CONTINUE TO

NUMBER FOURTEEN ASSEMBLY MEMBER
RIVAS YOU WIN. YOU'RE READY TO
PRESENT AB ELEVEN SEVENTY EIGHT-
WELCOME AGAIN AS YOU KNOW WE DO
NOT YET HAVE A QUORUM. OF PLEASE
FOR SIX THANK YOU MISTER
CHAIRMAN GOOD MORNING MEMBERS.
OF I WOULD LIKE TO START BY
THANKING YOUR COMMITTEE- FOR THE
THOUGHTFUL ANALYSIS ON THIS
BILL. ARE YOU AB ELEVEN SEVENTY
EIGHT SIXTY COMBAT HOUSEHOLD
HUNGER. BY PROVIDING PARENTS OR
CAREGIVERS ACCESS TO THE SUMMER
MEAL PROGRAM. IN MY COMMUNITY I
HAVE PERSONALLY SEEN. OF THIS.
THE NEED FOR SUMMER PROGRAM
SUMMER MEALS FOR CARE GIVERS-
OFTENTIMES AT LIGHT LIBRARIES IN
THE SUMMER- THEY'RE GIVING AWAY
MEALS FOR CHILDREN THE WE SEE
THE CARE GIVERS. PARENTS JUST
STANDING THERE WATCHING THEIR
CHILD EAT NOT BEING ABLE TO SIT
DOWN AND HAVE A MEAL WITH THEIR
CHILD AND- AS MANY OF YOU KNOW
THE SUMMER IS A HUGE TIME OF
NEED FOR LOW INCOME FAMILIES.
AND THAT'S WHY I DECIDED ON TO
INTRODUCE THIS BILL AND WORK
WITH OUR SPONSORS. ACCORDING TO
STUDIES FROM THE INSTITUTE FOR
POLICY AND RESEARCH ONE IN FOUR
HOUSEHOLDS WITH CHILDREN IN
CALIFORNIA ARE FOOD INSECURE.
DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS THE
STUDENTS BECOME INCREASINGLY
VULNERABLE TO HUNGER BECAUSE
FREE BREAKFAST AND LUNCH MEALS
ARE NOT PROVIDED TO STUDENTS.
PARENTS AND CARE GIVERS FROM
FOOD INSECURE HOUSEHOLDS WHO
DEPEND ON FREE SCHOOL MEALS FOR
THEIR CHILDREN BECOME HARD
PRESSED TO FINANCIALLY
COMPENSATE FOR THE LACK OF MEALS
WHEN THEIR CHILDREN ARE HOME.
HOWEVER THE USTA'S SUPPLEMENTS
MEALS FOR CHILDREN THROUGH THEIR
SUMMER FOOD SERVICE PROGRAM THIS
IS A VOLUNTARY PROGRAM FOR
SCHOOLS LIBRARIES COMMUNITY BASE
OR- FAITH BASED INSTITUTIONS AND
GOVERNMENT AGENCIES TO HOST AND
PROVIDE. FREE MEALS TO CHILDREN
AGES EIGHTEEN AND UNDER. THE
PROGRAM CURRENTLY DOES NOT ALLOW
FOR PARENTS OR CAREGIVERS TO
RECEIVE A MAIL. AND THIS IS WHAT
THIS BILL WOULD DO IT WILL IT
WOULD ALLOW A PARENT OR
CAREGIVER TO ALSO RECEIVE A
FREE- SUMMER MEAL. TODAY I HAVE
WITH ME TO PROVIDE TESTIMONY IT
SALUTE GOOD DEBT IS SENIOR
POLICY ADVOCATE. WITH THE
CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF FOOD
BANKS. MISS YOU CHERISH WELCOME.
TO MINUTES PLEASE PROCEED THANK
YOU GOOD MORNING TEARING
COMMITTEE MEMBERS- MY NAME IS
WITH THE ADDRESS A SENIOR POLICY
ADVOCATE AT THE CALIFORNIA
ASSOCIATION OF FOOD BANKS THAT
THE ASSOCIATION WE HAVE A
NETWORK OF FORTY ONE FOOD BANKS
LEADING THE COLLECTIVE EFFORT.
AND HUNGER IN CALIFORNIA CURRENT
DATA SHOWS THAT NEARLY TWENTY
FIVE POINT 8% OF HOUSEHOLDS WITH
CHILDREN IN CALIFORNIA ARE FOOD
INSECURE- WITH A DEEP
DISPARITIES FOR LATIN NEXT IN
BLACK HOUSEHOLDS. CALIFORNIA
BECAME THE FIRST STATE TO
IMPLEMENT A STATEWIDE UNIVERSAL
MEALS PROGRAM FOR CHILDREN NOW
WE LOOK TO ADDRESSING HUNGER
DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS WHICH
NOT ONLY. AFFECT CHILDREN BUT
THE WHOLE FAMILY. NUMBER SUMMER
MEAL PER FILLS THAT GAP CHILDREN
CAN HAVE MEALS WAS IS OUT. PRIOR
TO JOINING THE CALIFORNIA
ASSOCIATION OF FOOD BANKS I
WORKED AT THE REDWOOD EMPIRE
FOOD BANK OVERSEEN THIS MEAL
PROGRAM AT FORTY SITES ACROSS
CINEMA COUNTY. ONE OF THE
HARDEST PARTS OF THE PROGRAM WAS
SERVING MEALS TO CHILDREN
KNOWING THAT PARENTS WERE HUNGRY
THEMSELVES TO. ONE SUMMER WE
WERE FORTUNATE TO RECEIVE GRANT
FUNDING TO PILOT. OF THE PILOT
PROVIDING CARE GIVER MEALS AS
YOU CAN IMAGINE WE HAD GREAT
SUCCESS. I WANTED TO SHARE A
STORY FROM A TEEN AT THE
COMMUNITY PARK SITE COMMUNITY
GARDEN PARK SITE- WHERE THE LEAD
VOLUNTEER HAD ASKED ALL THE
CHILDREN TO COME AND EAT SINCE
IT WAS LUNCH TIME. DANIEL WHO
WAS A YOUNG TEEN WAS WORKING IN
THE COMMITTEE GARDEN SAID I WILL
COME AND EAT WHEN MY DAD CAN EAT
AS WELL. DANIEL DID NOT THINK IT
WAS FAIR THAT HE COULD KEEP HIS
FATHER COULD NOT. LATER THAT
WEEK WHEN THE PILOT KICKED OFF
DANGLING HIS FATHER WERE ABLE TO
EAT TOGETHER THANKS TO THE
PILOT. ANOTHER STORIES ABOUT
MEDINA GONZALEZ I WOULD LIKE
THAT IT HAD THE- WHO IS THE
GRANDMOTHER OF THE COMMUNITY
GARDEN. ALL THE KIDS COLOR I
BELIEVE THAT OUR GRANDMOTHER.
THE KIDS TO WALK ALONE FROM
THEIR HOUSE BECAUSE THEIR
PARENTS ARE AT WORK DURING LUNCH
TIME LIKE TO TALK TO I BELIEVE
THAT IF THEY NEED HELP WITH
ANYTHING. THAT SUMMER FOR THE
FIRST TIME MARINO WAS ABLE TO
EAT LUNCH WITH ALL HER
GRANDCHILDREN. THANKS TO THE
PILOT. UNFORTUNATELY THE
SUCCESSFUL PILOT CAME TO AN END.
AND DEMONSTRATE THERE IS A NEED
FOR IT TO SERVE MEALS TO CARE
GIVERS. AB ELEVEN SEVENTY EIGHT
INSURERS THAT CARE GIVERS CAN
SIT DOWN AND HAVE A MEAL WITH
THEIR CHILDREN. DURING SUMMER
MEALS DURING THE SUMMER MEAL
PROGRAM AT ONE OF THE MOST
HUNGRIEST TIMES OF THE YEAR. THE
BENEFITS OF CAREGIVERS AND
CHILDREN EATING MEALS TOGETHER
IS WELL DOCUMENTED. ENCOURAGES
HEALTHY FOOD CONSUMPTION
SUPPORTS BONDING AMONG FAMILIES
OVER A MEAL AND STUDIES SHOW
THAT CHILDREN WHO EAT WITH THEIR
PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS. CONSUME
MORE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES.

DOLLARS AND DUE TO FEDERAL TAX
CUTS IT'S BEEN REDUCED TO FIVE
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS. SPREAD
OVER THE AMOUNT OF STUDENTS WERE
ELIGIBLE FOR IT THE RESULTS IN.
ONE DOLLAR AND FIFTY CENTS PER
YEAR. BACK TO COST MORE MONEY TO
ADMINISTER THIS. IN THE STUDENTS
ACTUALLY GET AND FOR THOSE WHO
RECEIVE THEIR DOLLAR FIFTY. IT
IS ALMOST MEANINGLESS TOWARDS
THE COST OF THEIR EDUCATION. SO
WORKING WITH THE STUDENT AID
COMMISSION AND OTHERS WE SOUGHT
TO FIND A BETTER WAY TO UTILIZE
THESE EXISTING FUNDS TO
MAXIMIZE. THE EFFICACY AND THEIR
BENEFIT I JUST STUDENTS AND WE
STARTED BY LOOKING AT. STUDENTS
WHO NEEDED THE MOST HELP. IN
SUPPORTING OUR- TRANSFER
CAPACITY FROM THE COMMUNICATOR
JUST TO THE H. B. C. USE WE WILL
BE LIFTING UP SOME OF OUR MOST
MARGINALIZED STUDENTS. IN A WAY
THAT BENEFITS CALIFORNIA AS A
WHOLE. OF THE IDEA OF SUPPORTING
TRANSFER STUDENTS TO THE H. B.
C. USE COMES IN A SIMILAR
FASHION AS THE CHAFEE GRANTS.
WHICH WE CURRENTLY SUPPORT FOR
FORMER FOSTER YOUTH WHEREVER
THEY MAY CHOOSE TO PARTICIPATE
IN THEIR HIGHER EDUCATION
LEARNING ALTHOUGH IT IS A
SIGNIFICANTLY SMALLER INVESTMENT
FROM THE STATE. AND THE CHAFEE
GRANTS THE STATE PUTS IN ABOUT.

CALIFORNIA COMMUNITY COLLEGE
TRANSFER STUDENTS OFTEN
TRANSFERRED TO NHPC TO
EXPERIENCE UNIQUE AND CULTURALLY
RICH ACADEMIC ENVIRONMENTS. A
CAMPUS WHERE THEY SEE THEMSELVES
REFLECTED BOTH INSIDE AND
OUTSIDE OF THE CLASSROOM.
INSTITUTIONS WHERE THEY'RE SEEN
VALUED AND SUCCESS IS THE
EXPECTATION NOT THE EXCEPTION.
STUDENTS REPORT THAT THESE
CAMPUSES FEEL LIKE FAMILY
REGARDLESS OF THEIR ETHNIC
BACKGROUND. THE COLLEGE ACCESS
TAX FUND IS GREAT IS IMPORTANT
TO OUR CALIFORNIA COMMUNITY
COLLEGE TRANSFER STUDENTS
BECAUSE FUNDING IS OFTEN THE
MOST CHALLENGING OBSTACLE. THAT
CAN PREVENT THE STUDENT FROM
ATTENDING AN HBCU AND ALSO
COMPLETING THEIR MASTER'S DEGREE
. OVER 80% OF H. B. C. USE
DURING STUDENT SERVICE ARE PELL
ELIGIBLE. IT DIRECTLY IMPACTS

UNIVERSAL CARE PROFESSIONALS I
WANT TO THANK CHAIRMAN NEWMAN IN
THE COMMITTEE FOR YOUR
CONSIDERATION OF AB. SIXTEEN
NINETY FIVE. I ALSO WANNA THANK
ASSEMBLYMAN GIBSON FOR STRONG
SUPPORTER THE NURSING PROFESSION
AND HIS COMMITMENT STUDENTS. MY
NAME IS ELIZABETH HAWKINS AND
I'VE BEEN A REGISTERED NURSE FOR
OVER THIRTY FIVE YEARS. I KNEW
IN HIGH SCHOOL THAT I WANTED TO
BE A REGISTERED NURSE. WELL IN
MY JUNIOR SENIOR YEAR. I TOOK A
CERTIFIED NURSE'S THE- CLASS DID
MY CLINICALS AN ACUTE CARE
HOSPITAL. I ALSO TO. KEEP YOUR
FOR STATUS OF COLLEGE
PREPARATORY CLASSES MANY WERE.
TRANSFERABLE FROM MY- COLLEGE
DEGREE. IN AB SIXTEEN NINETY
FIVE. EXISTED BACK THEN I COULD
HAVE BENEFITED FROM THIS BILL
THIS POTENTIAL OUTCOME. HAVING A
MORE DIRECT PIPELINE INTO THE
NURSING PROGRAM. GRADUATING AND
ENTERING THE WORK FORCE SOONER.
THIS BILL WOULD HAVE SAVE TIME
MONEY AND FRUSTRATION OF WAITING
LISTS AND TAKING UNNECESSARY
CLASSES IN ORDER NOT TO LOSE MY
PRIORITY REGISTRATION WHICH IS
IMPORTANT SO THAT. CLASSES WERE
NOT FULL WHEN I WENT TO REGISTER
FOR THEM. AFTER COMPLETING
COMPLETING MY PREREQUISITES FOR
THE AGM PROGRAM IT TOOK ME
ALMOST A YEAR AND A HALF. TO BE
ACCEPTED INTO THE PROGRAM A TWO
YEAR DEGREE TAKING FOUR TO FIVE
YEARS AND NOW THAT WAIT TIME IS
EVEN LONGER. AND THE NURSING
SHORTAGE IS MUCH WORSE THAN IT
WAS BACK THEN. TODAY NURSING
APPLICANTS ARE ON A WAIT LIST
FROM TWO TO FIVE YEARS TO GET
INTO A PROGRAM AND THAT'S AFTER
TAKING THEIR PREREQUISITES EVEN
THEN SOME SCHOOLS HAVE GONE TO A
LOT OF PROGRAM. AND THE STUDENTS
ARE PASSED UP YEAR AFTER YEAR
FORCING THEM TO LEAVE THE
COMMUNITIES THAT THEY GREW UP IN
AN END TO OUR STATE PURSUING
THEIR NURSING CAREER OR
SOMETIMES CHANGING THEIR CAREER
PATH ENTIRELY. ONCE THIS HAPPENS
THEY OFTEN TAKE JOBS IN THE
HOSPITALS WHERE THEY DID THEIR
CLINICAL ROTATIONS LEAVING THE
COMMUNITIES. ON MOST SOME OF
THEIR UNDERSERVED AND POSSIBLY
STATE THAT NEEDS THEM. I KNOW
THIS BECAUSE AFTER YEARS IN
NURSING I A PRECEPT AND MENTORED
MANY OF THE STUDENTS I HEAR
ABOUT THEIR FRUSTRATIONS. AB
SIXTEEN NINETY FIVE WORKS TO
ADDRESS THE BERRIER INTO NURSING
SCHOOL BY CREATING A NURSING ONE
A ONE IN HIGH SCHOOL. THAT WILL
COUNT AS CREDIT TOWARDS THEIR
NURSING PROGRAM AT THE COMMUNITY
COLLEGE LEVEL. AND PROVIDE
AUTOMATIC PLACEMENT INTO THE
PROGRAM THUS AVOIDING A TWO TO
FIVE YEAR WAITING PERIOD AND
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF
DOLLARS. SPENT TAKING
UNNECESSARY CLASSES. WITH OUR
CURRENT NURSING SHORTAGE ONLY
PROJECTED TO GET WORSE. WE NEED
TO ELEVATE AND RECOGNIZED EARLY
COMMITMENT OF HIGH SCHOOL
STUDENTS INTO THE NURSING
PROFESSION. AND AB SIXTEEN
NINETY FIVE- FROM- PROVIDE THAT
OPPORTUNITY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR
CONSIDERATION AND I WOULD
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR SUPPORT

AND AB SIXTEEN NINETY FIVE SEEKS
TO CREATE AN EASIER CONNECTION

SUPPLY CHAIN IF YOU WILL- AS-
THE AMOUNT OF SEATS AVAILABLE AT
OUR COMMUNITY COLLEGES THE
AMOUNT OF SEATS THAT ARE
AVAILABLE OUR FOUR YEAR

NUMBER OF CLINICAL PLACEMENT
OPPORTUNITIES ARE VERY LIMITED
SOME OF THE TESTIMONY WAS ABOUT
- NURSE STUDENTS THAT WOULD NEED
TO HAVE THAT CLINICAL EXPERIENCE
AND HAVE TO GO OUT OF STATE FOR
THAT'S VERY UNFORTUNATE- AND SO
I THINK YOUR BILL- IS A VERY
POSITIVE STEP FORWARD BUT WE
KNOW WE HAVE A LOT MORE TO DO IN
THIS PHASE OR ELSE REALLY WE'RE
NOT GOING TO SEE THE RESULTS
THAT WE LIKE TO SEE. WITH THAT
I'D BE HAPPY TO MOVE THE BILL AT
THE APPROPRIATE TIME NINE THREE

PASSION TO GO INTO THAT AND WHAT
BETTER WAY THAT WE START FROM
THE NINTH TO THE TWELFTH GRADE.

BEHALF OF ASSEMBLY MEMBER TEAM
REPRESENTING THIS BILL- AT FIRST
HE WANTS TO THANK THE COMMITTEE
FOR WORKING WITH HIM AND
ACCEPTING. THE COMMITTEE
AMENDMENTS AND THIS MEASURE
WHICH WITH WHICH WOULD REQUIRE
NEW SCHOOL BUS PURCHASES TO BE
ZERO EMISSION AFTER TWENTY
THIRTY FIVE. AND EXTEND
TRANSPORTATION SERVICES LEASING
CONTRACTS FOR ZERO EMISSION
SCHOOL BUSES. THIS BILL IS NOT A
FULLY- MANDATE AND MEETING THE
SCHOOLS ARE NOT REQUIRED TO
REPLACE THEIR ENTIRE FLEET ZERO
EMISSION BUSES BY TWENTY FORTY
FIVE THIRTY FIVE. THEY RETAIN
THE RIGHT TO USE OUR DIESEL
BUSES THROUGHOUT THE LIFE TO
ADDRESS CONCERNS WITH PRESIDENT
CHALLENGES ACQUIRING BUSES
TECHNOLOGY. THIS BILLS GRANT
SCHOOLS WITH ADDITIONAL FIVE
YEARS TO COMPLY. WITH THIS
EXTENSION- THESE RECENT EVENTS
ALSO GIVE OUR RURAL DISTRICTS
AND AN ADDITIONAL EXTENSIONS ON
TOP OF THAT. MEETING SOME SCHOOL
DISTRICTS WOULD NOT NEED TO
COMPLY WITH THIS PURCHASING
TARGET UNTIL TWENTY. FORTY FIVE
THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH OUR
GOALS HERE TO HAVE A CLEAN-
BUSES DRIVING KIDS TO SCHOOL
IMPROVING OUR AIR QUALITY AND-
BATTLING CLIMATE CHANGE. THAT
WITH US TODAY ARE. YOU IN THE
WITH AT THE- YOU. AND THE- PTA.
WHICH OF THE FIRST OF THOSE END
OF BECAUSE- WELCOME. RIGHT GOOD
MORNING. YEAH MY NAME IS- PATTON
AND I'M OF. AND VICE FOR HEALTH
AND COMMUNITY CONCERNS WITH THE
CALIFORNIA STATE PTA. WE HAVE
OVER FIVE HUNDRED AND FIFTY
THOUSAND MEMBERS STATEWIDE. FOR
OVER A HUNDRED TWENTY FIVE YEARS
THE PARENT TEACHER ASSOCIATION
HAS BEEN DEFENDING THE HEALTH OF
CHILDREN SINCE OUR EARLIEST
YEARS WE FOUGHT FOR- CHILD LABOR
LAWS AND HOT SCHOOL LUNCH. FIFTY
YEARS AGO OUR MEMBERSHIP
FORMALLY RECOGNIZED THE DANGER
AND AIR POLLUTION THAT OPPOSED
TO OUR CHILDREN AND DIRECTED THE
PDA TO WORK TO LIMIT CHILDREN'S
EXPOSURE TO. AND MITIGATE THE
ADVERSE EFFECTS OF BREATHING AIR
THAT IS POLLUTED MORE RECENTLY
HAVE TAKEN POSITIONS ON CLIMATE
CHANGE AS A MAJOR THREAT TO THE
HEALTH AND WELL BEING OF OUR
CHILDREN. HILL SCHOOL BUSES
EXPOSE OUR CHILDREN TO TOXIC AIR
POLLUTANTS. THE EPA WORLD
RESOURCES INSTITUTE AND THE
AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS
NO THE DIESEL EXHAUST FROM
SCHOOL BUSES IS A CARCINOGEN
THAT IS LINKED TO REDUCE LONG
DEVELOPMENT IN CHILDREN.
RESPIRATORY DISEASES AND
NEGATIVE IMPACTS ON COGNITION
AFFECTING STUDENTS ABILITIES. TO
SUCCEED IN THE CLASSROOM. STAYS
SHAUNA ASTHMA IS THE MOST COMMON
CHILDHOOD HEALTH CONDITION AND
NEARLY ONE POINT FIVE MILLION
CHILDREN IN CALIFORNIA HAVE
ASTHMA. IN THIS CONDITION MAKES
IT DIFFICULT TO EXERCISE PLAY
AND ATTEND SCHOOL. WE BELIEVE
THAT THIS IS AN EQUITY ISSUE AS
STUDENTS FROM UNDERSERVED
COMMUNITIES COMMUNITIES OFTEN
RELY MORE HEAVILY ON BUS
TRANSPORTATION AND ARE MORE THAN
TWO TIMES AS LIKELY TO DEVELOP
ASTHMA. CURRENTLY ONLY 2% OF THE
ENTIRE SCHOOL BUS FLEET IN
CALIFORNIA ZERO EMISSION
VEHICLES. AND WE BELIEVE WE MUST
DO BETTER THAN THIS. ACCORDING
TO THE CALIFORNIA AIR RESOURCES
BOARD SCHOOL BUS COMMUTES ARE
LESS THAN 10% OF A CHILD'S DAY.
BUT ACCOUNT 433% OF A CHILD'S
DAILY EXPOSURE TO TOXIC AIR
POLLUTANTS. CALIFORNIA STATE PTA
BELIEVES AIR POLLUTION AND
CLIMATE CHANGE IS A CHILDREN'S
ISSUE AND THAT WE NEED
LEGISLATION SUCH AS AB FIVE
SEVENTY NINE TO IMPROVE THE
HEALTH AND PROTECT OUR STATE'S
MOST VULNERABLE. PRECIOUS
RESOURCE OUR CHILDREN OUR FUTURE
. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THE NEXT
WITNESS WELCOME. GOOD MORNING
CHAIRMAN PRESS FOR SAKE DOES
COME BEHALF ADVANCE ENERGY
UNITED IN NATIONAL BUSINESS
ASSOCIATION ADVANCE ENERGY
TRANSPORTATION SOLUTIONS WE ARE
PROUD SPONSORS AT EIGHTY FIVE
SEVENTY NINE. THIS BILL SETS A
REASONABLE ACHIEVABLE GOAL FOR
NEW SCHOOL BUS PURCHASES TO BE
ZERO EMISSION VEHICLES AND
ENABLES ELEAZAR TO MAXIMIZE LONG
TERM SAVINGS FROM THESE CLEANER
BUSES. ACCELERATING THE
TRANSITION TO HEALTHIER
HEALTHIER SAFER SCHOOL
TRANSPORTATION ONE SURE ALL
SCHOOLS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE
THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN ANNUAL
SAVINGS TO REINVEST BACK INTO
THE CLASSROOM. THE CALIFORNIA
LEGISLATURE AND STATE REGULATORY
AGENCIES HAVE LONG PRIORITIZED
THE NEED TO TRANSITION SCHOOL
BUSES TO ZERO EMISSIONS. THE
CURRENT MULTIPLE YEAR EVEY
BUDGET PLAN ALLOWS CARVE NCC TO
DIRECT OVER THREE BILLION IN
INVESTMENTS TOWARDS ZERO
EMISSION SCHOOL BUSES
PROCUREMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE
NEED TO CHARGE THEM.
ADDITIONALLY THE EPA'S CLEAN
SCHOOL BUS PROGRAM. WILL PROVIDE
FIVE BILLION OVER THE NEXT FIVE
YEARS FOR ZERO EMISSION SCHOOL
BUS PURCHASES IN THE NATION WIDE
FEDERAL AND STATE FUNDING OUR
SPRING THE ADVANCEMENTS IN
ELECTRIC SCHOOL BUS DESIGN
TECHNOLOGY AND DELIVERY.
ELECTRIC SCHOOL BUSES HAVE BEEN
ORDERED ALL OVER THE STATE AND
HAD- INCREMENTAL. CONDITIONS
RANGING FROM DESERT FROM
CALIFORNIA TO SNOWY. WINTERS IN
ALASKA WHILE AT SCHOOL BUSES
HAVE BEEN ORDERED TO GO AS FAR
AS TO FIFTY MILES PER- TWO FIFTY
MILES BEFORE NEEDING TO RECHARGE
THEIR THAT IS WELL BEYOND THE
TRADITIONAL DUTY. CYCLE OF
TRADITIONAL SCHOOL BUSES. OVER
90% OF SCHOOL BUSES ROUTES IN
THE COUNTRY ARE AROUND A HUNDRED
MILES A DAY. OR LESS IT MILEAGE
THAT IS COVERED BY CURRENT AFTER
SCHOOL BUSES TODAY. THIS BUT A

CALL THE ROLL NEWMAN HERE NEWMAN
HERE PHOTOBOOK HERE UNTIL HERE.
GLAZER GLAZER MCGUIRE SMALLWOOD
. WILL PRESENT WILL PRESS. A
QUORUM IS INDEED. IT TO MY
COLLEAGUES IN THE OR- REGARDING
THE FOR MISMA RIP SOME BETWEEN
CENTIGRADE SIX. MR MCCARTY REP
ASSEMBLY MEMBER. CORRECT I
THOUGHT IT WAS IS NOT THE
MCCARTY BILL NOW THIS THIS IS
ACTUALLY THE IS THIS MISSION WHO
BUSES FOR SEVEN I'VE- OKAY- A
BEST. SO I DO OF SYNERGY BOOKER
HAD. SO I AM AND ACTION GREAT
THAT IT'S- MEMBER. MCCARTY HERE
TO EXPLAIN THIS BILL BECAUSE- SB
SIX ENERGY. AND IS HISTORY AND I
NECESSARY THINK A GREAT. PERSON
TO ANSWER THE FOLLOWING. I'M A
LITTLE I. LOVED AT THE DEALS OF
HAVING ZERO EMISSIONS- BUSES PER
SCHOOL DISTRICTS- IS SPECIALLY
FOR AT THE INLAND EMPIRE AND
BECAUSE THE INLAND EMPIRE WERE
HIGHER PRESENTS ARE MEANER
RIVERSIDE COUNTIES WE ACTUALLY
HAVE SORT OF A VALLEY COULD-
SURROUNDED BY. MOUNTAINS THAT AB
TRAP THE MUCH OF THE AD.
GREENHOUSES MISSIONS ARE COMING
OUT FROM THE PORTS AND SO THIS
WOULD BE VERY BENEFICIAL FOR OUR
AREA HOWEVER. AND THE CONCERNS
THAT I HAVE IS M. R. ONE THE
ABILITY FOR THIS- FOR THE STATE
TO ACTUALLY FINANCE THESE- BY
SAYS AND THE REASON WHY I'M A
LITTLE CONCERNED IS WE'VE HAD A
SURPLUS BUDGET UNPRECEDENTED IN
THE PAST. AND WE HAVE NOT FULLY
FUNDED- THE ABILITY FOR SCHOOL
DISTRICTS TO BE ABLE TO HAVE
BOWLED BY SEEING THROUGHOUT THE
AREA- IN THE STATE IN AN ISSUE
OF CALIFORNIA INCLUDING A LOT OF
A RURAL AREAS SO THE FUNDING IS
A CONCERN FOR ME NUMBER TWO. THE
TECHNOLOGY WHICH I KNOW THAT IS-
EXPONENTIAL IN ITS DEVELOPMENT
SO THAT'S NOT TO SAY THAT THIS
WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE ARE
READILY AVAILABLE- TO MEET BOTH
THE DISTANCE. AND IT NEEDS TO
RAIN CHALLENGES THAT HAPPENED
BECAUSE WE HAVE AREAS SUCH AS
THE MOUNTAINS AREAS THAT. COLD
WEATHER ADDED TO MY EXPERIENCE
AND COLD WEATHER ACTUALLY
DIMINISHES THE ABILITY FOR MANY
AT. AB BATTERIES TO FULLY HAVE
AN EXTENDED LIFE M. ON THAT IS
TO THE WEATHER- HAS AN IMPACT ON
IT THE CHARGING STATIONS
THROUGHOUT THE STATE IS IT IS AN
ISSUE AND BASED ON THE NOTES
THAT I HAVE HERE- THIS BILL
WOULD ALSO ALIGN THE SCHOOL
BUSES WITH THE- SAME TIMELINE AS
THE NORMAL PASSENGER VEHICLES IN
TWENTY THIRTY FIVE. AND IN
ACCORDING TO MY NOTES HERE SAYS-
SAYS- IT DOES NOT ALIGN WITH THE
EXISTING EXECUTIVE ORDER SIGNED
BY THE GOVERNOR NEWSOM IN TWENTY
TWENTY THAT REQUIRES MEDIUM AND
HEAVY DUTY. TRUCK SALES TO BE
ZERO EMISSIONS BY TWENTY. FORTY
FIVE THERE BY HOLDING SCHOOL
BUSES TO A HIGHER STANDARD THAN
THE OTHER VEHICLES WITHIN THE
SAME CLASS. SO THERE'S A VARIETY
OF CONCERNS THAT I HAVE RIGHT
NOW IT ACTUALLY. MOVING THIS
BILL FORWARD I'M NOT WITH THE
PREMISE THAT I THINK IS HAS
INCREDIBLE MERIT TO IT BUT THE
LOGISTICAL PRAGMATIC AND- IN THE
ACTUAL REALITY OF MAKING IT.
ACTUALLY HAPPEN ON BEHALF OF OUR
SCHOOLS BECAUSE WE CAN MANDATING
SAY THIS IS WHAT YOU FOLKS NEED
TO DO BUT UNLESS WE AS A STATE.
RAMIS AND ALLOCATE THE FUNDING
WHICH WE DIDN'T DO WHEN WE HAD A
SURPLUS NOW THERE WE ARE
PROJECTED TO GO IN AND DEFICIT-
IN THE NEXT SEVEN YEARS WE'RE
GOING TO BE PLAYING CATCH UP
AFTER THOSE THAT YOU KNOW I'M
NOT SURE WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN
NOW YOU'RE A MAGIC BALL TO.
FIGURE OUT WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN
AFTER SEVEN YEARS. BUT WHEN WE
THINK ABOUT GOING INTO AT. A
DEFICIT IN NEXT SEVEN YEARS WELL
HOW ARE WE GONNA CATCH UP AFTER
THAT- IN ORDER TO MAKE THIS
HAPPEN. N. AND IF WE WERE TO
FULLY FUNDED. DO WE REALLY NEED
TO HAVE A STATE MANDATE AT THIS
TIME WHEN WE COULD DO THAT THE
SCHOOL THIS COULD ACTUALLY DO
THIS WHEN IT COMES CLOSER TO
TWENTY THIRTY FIVE. OUR SCHOOL
DISHES COULD DO THIS IF THEY HAD
THE FULL FUNDING AND THE
TECHNOLOGY WAS THERE THE BUSES
WERE THERE THEY COULD. THEY
COULD IT DO THIS- AS NEEDED.
WHEN POSSIBLE THROUGHOUT THE
SCHOOL DISTRICT SO- I KNOW THIS
IS A LITTLE BIT MORE BUT- I
FIGURED I THROUGH THAT ARE YOU
BECAUSE I KNOW HOW.
KNOWLEDGEABLE YOU ARE IN
EDUCATION YEAH. THOSE ARE A LOT
OF ISSUES BUT I THINK IN MY HEAD
I JUST FOCUS ON THE TOP ONE THAT
I REMEMBER HAS RELATE TO THE
BUDGET AND THAT'S WHAT. THAT I
WORK ON THIS ON THIS A LONG WITH
MISTER KING SO I WILL NOTE THAT
THE BUDGET THAT WE JUST- NOT
WITH THE VOTED ON LAST YEAR. WE
HAVE- ONE POINT FIVE BILLION A
ONE TIME MONEY. FOR THIS
PURPOSE- THERE IS A LARGER PIECE
OF FEDERAL MONEY COMING IN AS
WELL. THIS IS ONE TIME SO I
LOOKED AT IT I THINK WE'RE
CONFLATING THE ISSUE OF NOT
BEING ABLE TO PAY FOR SCHOOL
TRANSPORT. THAT'S ONGOING. PROP
NINETY EIGHT. MONEY FOR SCHOOL
BUSING THIS IS FOR. WHATEVER BUS
ROUTES THEY HAVE MAYBE NOT
ENOUGH IN SOME AREAS AND- WE
HEAR IN THIS COMMITTEE ALL THE
TIME. THIS IS WHATEVER THEY
HAVE. THEY SHOULD BE IN CLEANER
BUSES THE SAYS. GOING FORWARD
AFTER TWENTY THIRTY FIVE SET A
MARKER THAT. AS WE PURCHASE NEW
BUSES THEY SHOULD BE. CLEAN
VEHICLES. AND WE DO HAVE.
RESOURCES THAT WE SET ASIDE- I
THINK THIS THAT'S THAT AN
APPROPRIATE MARKER- I THINK THAT
WE'LL HAVE MORE FEDERAL MONEY AS
WELL FROM THE- PRESIDENT.
BIDEN'S INFRASTRUCTURE PACKAGE
AND SO- YOU KNOW THIS THAT'S A
MULTI YEAR- ON RAMP- OVER A
DECADE OF COURSE. AND EVEN MORE
SO FROM THESE RURAL AREAS AND
SO. YOU KNOW WE CAN ALWAYS
ADJUSTED WE GET CLOSER TO TWENTY
THIRTY THIRTY YOU KNOW AS IN
YOUR- AND YOUR- FINAL YEARS HERE
IN THE LEGISLATURE NO YOU'RE IN
ONLY THE BEGINNING OF YOUR
TWELVE YEARS- SO WILL HAVE TIME
TO ADJUST I THINK SETTING A
MARKER IS IMPORTANT FOR
DISTRICTS TO HAVE PLANS AS WELL
AS THE INDUSTRY SAYS HEY.
CALIFORNIA IS LOOKING FOR THIS
LETS THEM STEP UP OUR GAME AS
WELL FIFTY IN YOUR PROFESSIONAL
EXPERIENCE DO YOU BELIEVE THAT.
THE STATE WILL COMMIT ITSELF. TO
REQUIRE THIS IS A STATE MANDATE
FOR ACROSS THE STATE AND ENSURE
THAT OUR SCHOOL DISTRICTS WILL
HAVE WILL BE FULLY FUNDED TO
MEET THESE REQUIREMENTS. AND. IF
NOT AB. AB GIVE A LITTLE LEEWAY
TO OUR SCHOOLS YOU SEE BE ABLE
TO AT STATE WE CAN'T MEET THIS
THESE REQUIREMENTS BUT IS THE
STATE. COMMITTING ITSELF TO
ENSURING THAT WE ARE ABLE TO
FULLY FUND THIS YEAH RENDON WELL
I THINK WHAT THIS IS SAYING IS
THAT YOU KNOW THIS CAR AND THE
STATE WAS THINK THAT CARS SOLD
HERE IN CALIFORNIA NEED TO BE. A
STANDARD THIS IS SAYING WHEN
SCHOOL DISTRICTS BY. NEW THE
RIVERSIDE. SCHOOL DISTRICT- THEY
BUY A NEW. VEHICLE SCHOOL BUS BY
THIS YEAR IT MUST BE ONE OF
THESE- ZERO EMISSION VEHICLES.
AND THEY'RE GOING TO BE BUYING
THEM ANYWAY. THEY ARE MORE
EXPENSIVE AND WE HAVE PUT ASIDE
MONEY FOR THIS YOU KNOW THIS
BUDGET CYCLE THROUGH LAST
YEAR'S. FUNDING IT'S HARD TO
PREDICT WE'RE GOING TO BE. NEXT
IS- I AM ASKING. BUDGETARY SO
EARLY THAT WE CAN ALWAYS- YOU
KNOW RECALIBRATE BASED UPON
WHERE AT BUT I THINK THIS THAT'S
A GOOD MARKER HERE TODAY I'M NOT
SURE IF. IT WILL LET ME I JUST
TO CLARIFY IT IT MIGHT CHANGE
THERE SHOULD THERE A COUPLE
PROVISIONS THAT ALLOW FOR. THOSE
SCENARIOS WHERE WE WERE THE
STATE FOR A REASON OR THE
DISTRICTS UNABLE TO MEET THOSE
GOALS- AND THAT'S ACCOUNTED FOR
IN THE LENGTH OF THE BILL. UNDER
CERTAIN CONDITIONS SO THAT I
DON'T OF ANYONE ELSE WANTS TO
COME TO THAT BUT I APPRECIATE
YOUR COMMENTS AND RICHARD. WE
SHOULD NOT JUST TO ADD YOU KNOW
THE STATE CONTINUED YOU KNOW
MAKING THAT OF. HOPING TO SEE AN
ADVOCATE. FOR THAT TYPE OF
FUNDING AND THAT'S WHERE WE HAD
AT THE EXTEND- AND NOT DOING A
FLEET MANDATE BECAUSE IT'S FOR
NEW PURCHASES OKAY. FOLKS COULD
USE THEIR- YOU KNOW DIESEL
TRUCKS OR WHATEVER TYPE OF TRUCK
THEY HAVE UNTIL THE END A LIFE
WAIT PASSED TWENTY THIRTY FIVE.
JUST WANTED TO MAKE. SURE IT'S
SO THE SHOW AYE I ACTUALLY I
HAVE A QUESTION. AND I ONE
ELSE'S THIS A GOOD GOOD GOAL-
THERE IS LANGUAGE THAT IS
EXPLICIT. OR LEGISLATIVE INTENT
LANGUAGE THAT REFERS TO FIFTY
TWO ELECTRICAL- OF.
INFRASTRUCTURE YOU KNOW AS YOU
KNOW THERE'S ACTUALLY TWO ZERO
EMISSION TECHNOLOGIES RIGHT NOW
ONE OF WHICH IS HIGHS IN FUEL
CELL. WHICH HAS A DIFFERENT SET
OF INFRASTRUCTURE. REQUIREMENTS
BUT WHERE THEY ARE THERE IS
SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS BEING MADE
RIGHT NOW AND LOOK AT THE SHOW
THAT TRANSIT LEVEL- WITH TRANSIT
AGENCIES ACTUALLY ADOPTING. A
HARD YOUR FUEL CELL BUSES RIGHT
TO THE YOU KNOW THAT BUT TO THAT
LANGUAGE- THE LEGEND TEN
LANGUAGE. DO IT FAIR TO FOR THAT
IT'S NOT MEANT TO EXCLUDE FUEL
CELL TECHNOLOGY. THAT'S CORRECT
SIX ZERO MISSION SO IT'S NOT.
ONLY WHEN TECHNOLOGY SUPPOSED TO
BE TECHNOLOGY NEUTRAL RIGHT IT
SO I'LL GO BRING IT WITH. THE
SMM OF KING EXITS LITTLE
CONFUSED WITH TO THEIR LINE
RATHER Y. I THINK IT'S A GOOD
BILL WITH EMOTION. CENTER GLAZER
WOULD YOU LIKE TO CLOSE.
ASSEMBLY MEMBER CARDS I'M
BEHALF- OF THAT SO MEMBER TO
RESPECTFULLY ASK THE DRIVER.
VERY GOOD. WE HAVE A MOTION. BY
MA'AM SO PLEASE CALL OR- FINALLY
SEVEN AB FIVE SEVENTY NINE.
MOTION IS TO PASS AS AMEND. THE
FIRST AND WE WERE PART THE
COMMITTEE ON APPROACH. NO MAN
NINE NEWMAN I WOULD. AYE OR
TROUBLED COURT AND- LASER.
GLAZER MCGUIRE. SMALLWOOD CUEVAS
WILK. WILL NO. YEAH VERY GOOD-
MISTER MCCARTY THIS YEAR SECOND
. MEASURE OR YOUR MEASURE. WHICH
IS OUR LAST MISSION YES THE SUIT
. THANK YOU OUR FINAL BILL TODAY
. IS THE- AB SEVEN FORTY NINE.
DEALING WITH COMMUNITY COLLEGE.
PROCESS FOR DECK IS LAW. AND CAL
. BEEN TRY TO. AND AT TINKER THE
EDGE. MAKING IT. AND FOR IN THE
- TO TRACK FOR A KEY COLLEGE TO
A FOUR YEAR SCHOOL WHETHER IT'S
THE CSU. FOR THE UC SOMETIMES
YOU HAVE TO HAVE AN ADVANCED
DEGREE TO FIGURE OUT THE
TRANSFER PROCESS WE MAKE IT WAY
TOO COMPLICATED. WE HAVE SOME
SYSTEMS FOR CSU RECENTLY THE EDT
PROCESS WHICH IS SIMPLE
STREAMLINED. UNIFORMS WE HAVE
DIFFERENT ONES FOR EACH UC. AND
A FURTHER COMPLICATE THINGS THIS
PAST YEAR THE GOVERNOR BRIEFLY
PROPOSED HAVING A NEW ONE FOR
UCLA. AND SO THAT JUST MADE
THINGS ACTUALLY WORSE. MORE
COMPLICATIONS MORE OF A MESS AND
SO REALLY THIS IS THE
OPPORTUNITY FOR ONCE AND FOR ALL
NO LONGER TINKER AROUND THE
EDGES AND HAVE. A UNIFORM
STREAMLINED COMMUNITY COLLEGE
TRANSFER PROCESS FOR ANYBODY.
THERE AT AMERICAN RIVER COLLEGE
SACRAMENTO CITY COLLEGE THEY
WANTED AB ONE DAY ATTEND UCLA UC
BERKELEY SAC STATE LONG BEACH
STATE SAN JOSE STATE THEY CAN
SET UP. A PATH FOR THEM AND
FIGURE OUT HOW TO A TRANSFER
SEAMLESSLY. YOU KNOW WE HAD A
BUDGET HEARING THIS PAST YEAR
AND WHAT THE ISSUES WAS. NOT
ENOUGH COMMUNITY COLLEGE
TRANSFER OUR TRANSCONTINENTAL.
STUDENTS ARE TRANSFERRING TO THE
UC. NCSU THAT'S WHEN ROMAN WAS
DOWN LIKE I WOULD HAVE MADE IT
EASIER FOR THEM TO TRANSFER IN
THE FIRST PLACE HAVING A
STREAMLINED PROCESS SO. I WITH
US TODAY AS A PROPOSAL DOING
JUST THAT ONCE AND FOR ALL
HAVING A UNIFIED. COMMUNITY
COLLEGE TRANSFER PROCESS NOT
REINVENTING THE WHEEL USING THE
SYSTEM THAT'S BEEN WORKING AT
THE C. S. YOU CALLED EDT. AND I
WILL NOTE THAT ONE UC. UC MERCED
IS DOING THIS ALREADY. C. 70% OF
STUDENTS ENROLLED UNIVERSITY
CALIFORNIA HAVE NET. I BEFORE WE
PULLED OUT THE BUDGET PROCESS
OVER THE WEEKEND SO WE SHOULD GO
TO THE POLICY ROUTE UCLA WAS ON
THE VERGE OF DOING FOR THEIR
CAPS ET. SO LET'S JUST MAKE THIS
SIMPLE ONCE AND FOR ALL FOR
CALIFORNIANS. I WAS THE LUCKY
ONE I WAS AT A COMMUNITY COLLEGE
AND TRANSFERRED TO- AT CSU. AND
I FIGURED IT OUT ACTUALLY WANTED
TO GO TO A UC. BUT I WOULD HAVE
TO TAKE A FEW MORE CLASSES SO I
TOOK THE OTHER DIRECTION BECAUSE
I WANT TO GET OUT TOWN CENTER SO
I WENT TO. A CSU INSTEAD OF IT
ALL WORKED OUT- IT SHOULDN'T BE
THAT COMPLICATED WE SHOULD MAKE
THIS EASIER FOR STUDENTS. ACROSS
THE SYSTEM- I WITH ME TODAY ARE
TO- GROUPS WHO HAVE STUDIED THIS
TREMENDOUSLY THE CAMPAIGN FOR
COLLEGE OPPORTUNITY AND A
REPRESENTATIVE WITH THE UC
STUDENT ASSOCIATION-
RESPECTFULLY ASK YOUR RIVAL
THANK YOU. THANK. YOU- FOR
WITNESS. WELCOME THE MORNING
TOURNAMENT IN MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE MY NAME IS DAVID
EMERITUS- ANIMUS TRANSPACIFIC
UCLA- SETTING ENVIRONMENTAL
SCIENCE AND LABOR STUDIES. AS A
FIRST GENERATION STUDENT
ANDERSON OF IN A MEXICAN
IMMIGRANTS I DIDN'T HAVE THE
PRIVILEGE OF KNOWING HOW TO
NAVIGATE ACADEMIA. I DON'T KNOW
WHAT A MAJOR WAS OR HOW TO FILL
IN EDUCATION PLAN. I HAD TO
TEACH MYSELF HOW TO BE A STUDENT
WHILE WORKING FULL TIME AT
STARBUCKS. THERE'S SO MUCH
CONFUSION AROUND DEGREE
REQUIREMENTS AND IT IS
DISCOURAGING WHEN OUT ON THE
FACT THAT REQUIREMENTS DIFFER
FROM CAMPUS TO CAMPUS AND SYSTEM
TO SYSTEM. THE SYSTEM IS FAILING
STUDENTS LIKE US AND- TRANSFER
RATES ARE. WITH LESS THAN 3% OF
THE ONE POINT EIGHT MILLION
CALIFORNIA COMMUNITY COLLEGE
STUDENTS IN OUR STATE
SUCCESSFULLY TRANSFERRING WITHIN
TWO YEARS. WITH BLACK AND WHITE
AND NEXT STUDENTS FALLING BEHIND
THE MOST THE STATUS QUO IS
SIMPLY UNACCEPTABLE. THE
ASSOCIATE DEGREE FOR TRANSFER
PROVIDES A CLEAR AND GUARANTEED
TRANSFER PATHWAY FOR STUDENTS.
EIGHTY EARNERS HAVE SHOWN HIGHER
GRADUATION RATES AND GPAS
COMPARED TO THOSE WHO ARE IN
TRADITIONAL ASSOCIATE DEGREES
LIKE MINE. WERE TRANSFERRED
WITHOUT A DEGREE. HOWEVER AS WE
KNOW THE IMPLEMENTATION OF AB AT
T. IS ACROSS CSU AND UC CAMPUSES
HAS FACED MANY CHALLENGES. I WAS
A PASADENA CITY COLLEGE FOR FOUR
YEARS. AND APPLY FOR TRANSFER
THREE TIMES AND ON MY FIRST TRY
I WAS REJECTED EVERYWHERE. ON MY
SECOND THE PANDEMIC CARE AND
BECAUSE- OF THE LACK OF SERVICES
AVAILABLE TO SUPPORT ME I
DROPPED OUT. AND I FOUND OUT
LATER THAT YEAR THAT I HAD BEEN
ACCEPTED TO UC SANTA CRUZ. IT
WAS ONLY UNTIL I WAS APPROVED
FOR TRANSFER ADMISSION GUARANTEE
WITH UC DAVIS I WAS ABLE TO MAKE
IT ALL OF THIS TRANSFORMATION.
AND EVENTUALLY WAS ACCEPTED INTO
UCLA. I CANNOT MADE IT THROUGH
WITHOUT A GUARANTEE OF KNOWING
THAT WHEN I WAS WHEN I WOULD
FINISH THERE WILL BE A SPOT
WAITING FOR ME. ULTIMATELY
ULTIMATELY ENROLLED AT UCLA BUT
I HADN'T KNOWN. IF I HAD TO KNOW
THAT I WOULD HAVE A GUARANTEED
SPOT SOMEWHERE I TRULY DON'T
KNOW. IF I WOULD HAVE HAD THE
MOTIVATION TO FINISH. THERE IS
LIKE MYSELF ARE FACED WITH AN UP
HILL BATTLE OF UNCERTAINTY IN
THE SYSTEM THAT IS ALREADY TOO
CONFUSING. AB SEVENTY FORTY NINE
OF REPORT PRESENTS AN
OPPORTUNITY TO CLOSE EQUITY
GAPS. BY SIMPLIFYING OUR
TRANSFER PATHWAYS AND REMOVING
LOCK FROM THE TRANSFER
EXPERIENCE. EVERY CALIFORNIA
COMMUNITY COLLEGE STUDENTS. THAT
COMPLETE IN AT T. SHOULD BE
ENTITLED TO A SPOT IN THE CSU
AND UC SYSTEM. THANK YOU AND I
STRONGLY URGE FOR YOUR AYE VOTE
. THANK YOU MISTER MERRETT. NEXT
WELCOME. GOOD AFTERNOON CHAIR
NEWMAN MEMBERS MY NAME IS JOSH
HAGEN AND I'M THE DIRECTOR.
STATE LIFE POLICY RESEARCH AND
ADVOCACY ORGANIZATION DEDICATED
TO ENSURING THAT ALL
CALIFORNIANS HAVE AN EQUAL
OPPORTUNITY TO ATTEND AND
SUCCEED IN COLLEGE. THE
CALIFORNIA COMMUNITY COLLEGES
SERVE A CRITICAL FUNCTION IN
MEETING WORKFORCE DEMANDS IN
ADVANCING RACIAL EQUITY FROM A
LARGE BLOCK AND LOT NEXT STUDENT
POPULATIONS THEY SUPPORT.
DESPITE MAKING SIGNIFICANT
PROGRESS TO IMPROVE TRANSFERRED
THROUGH THE ASSOCIATE DEGREE FOR
TRANSFER THE TRANSFER PROCESS TO
THE UC REMAINS OVERLY COMPLEX.
AS A RESULT OF THE UC'S RELIANCE
ON SEPARATE CAMPUS BY CAMPUS
TRANSFER PATHWAYS VIA THE
TRANSFER AGREEMENT GUARANTEE
PROGRAM. OR EVEN PROGRAM BY
PROGRAM TRANSFER CREMINS VIA THE
PATHWAYS PROGRAM. COMMUNITY
COLLEGE STUDENTS CONTINUE TO BE
FORCED TO NAVIGATE A COMPLEX
MAZE TO TRANSFER TO THE UC AS WE
JUST HEARD FROM DAVID'S
EXPERIENCE. ACCORDING TO THE
PUBLIC POLICY INSTITUTE OF
CALIFORNIA APPROXIMATELY 70% OF
CALIFORNIA COMMUNITY COLLEGE
STUDENTS DECLARE TRANSFER IS A
GOAL WHEN THEY COMPLETE THEIR
INITIAL EDUCATION PLAN. YET
FEWER THAN 10% OF BLACK AND
LATIN NEXT COMMUNITY COLLEGE
STUDENTS WILL REACH THEIR
TRANSFER GOALS WITHIN FOUR
YEARS. AS THE TRANSFER PROCESS
CONTINUES TO LAYER TRANSFER
PATHWAY ON TOP OF TRANSFER
PATHWAY FAILING TO MEET THE
VISION FOR A STUDENT CENTERED
PATH THE LINES COMMON BUT WE'RE
DIVISION CURRICULA. WITH THE
SYSTEM I DID MISSIONS GUARANTEED
TO BOTH THE CSU AND THE UC. IT
IS UNTENABLE TO LATER NEW
PATHWAYS WITH NEW DECISION
POINTS ON TOP OF AN ALREADY
CROWDED TRANSFORMATIONS FOR
STUDENTS. IT'S A DISSERVICE TO
OUR STUDENTS TO ADVANCE
SOLUTIONS THAT PROVIDE FEWER
GUARANTEED ADMISSIONS OPTIONS.
WHEN STUDENTS REACH THE POINT
WHEN THEY'RE FINALLY READY TO
TRANSFER. AS WE WORK TO UNTANGLE
THE TRANSFER ME TO THE UC FOR
STUDENTS IT'S IMPERATIVE THAT WE
BUILD UPON TRANSFER PATHWAYS
WITH A PROVEN RECORD OF SUCCESS.
IN THE AT T. PATHWAY IS WORKING
FOR STUDENTS THE COMMON UTILIZED
PATHWAY TO TRANSFER. THIS YEAR
CALIFORNIA'S EXPECTED TO REACH
OVER HALF A MILLION ADT'S
AWARDED SINCE THE PROGRAM'S
INCEPTION IN TWO THOUSAND TEN.
OVER 50% OF LATIN X. STUDENTS
EARNING AN ASSOCIATE DEGREE AT
THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE ARE DOING
SO WITH THE EIGHTY. AB SEVENTEEN
FORTY NINE PROVIDES A SIMPLE SO
LUCIAN THAT SCANDAL. WITH THE
ORIGINAL VISION THE EIGHTY T.
PROVIDES TO WITH A STREAMLINED
PATH TO TRANSFER BY UTILIZING
THE AT T. AS A SYSTEM WIDE
ADMISSIONS GUARANTEED TO BOTH.
THE CSU AND THE UC WITH A HIGHER
GPA THRESHOLD FOR GUARANTEED
ADMISSION TO UC SYSTEM. SIMPLY
PUT AB SEVENTEEN FORTY NINE WILL
CREATE THE EIGHTY T. AS
1 DEGREES WITH FEW GUARANTEES
AND FINALLY ENSURE THAT STUDENTS
WILL HAVE TO NAVIGATE. COMPLEX
MISMATCH TRANSFER PROCESS THESE
WHEN APPLYING TO THE CSU AND THE
UC. THANK YOU THANK YOU. AS YOU
AREAS HERE LIKE TO SIGN SUPPORT
THE MEASURE. AB SEVENTEEN FORTY
NINE. PLEASE MAKE YOUR WAY TO
THE PODIUM. GOOD MORNING I
IMAGINE IT ON BEHALF OF THE
CALIFORNIA COMMUNITY COLLEGES
CHANCELLOR OFFICE IN SUPPORT
THANK YOU THANK YOU. GOOD

ASTRONOMY HARVARD CATION TRUST
WESTERN SUPPORT THANK YOU. GOOD
MORNING. STERN CENTERS ON OKAY
WITHOUT THEM ON BEHALF OF THE
TELEVISION ACADEMY FOUNDATION
AND SUPPORT THANK YOU- YES KIND
OF THE UC STUDENT ASSOCIATION AS
YOU KNOW FROM MY WITNESS WE ARE
IN STRONG SUPPORT OF AB
SEVENTEEN FORTY NINE AND SERVING
AS CO SPONSORS. THANK YOU EVERY
ASSEMBLY. WHO'D LIKE TO TRY IN
OPPOSITION TO AB. SEVENTY FORTY
NINE. WELCOME THANK YOU MISTER
CHAIR. TELL A REGULAR ARMY AT
THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA.
WERE RESPECTFULLY IN OPPOSITION
AB SEVENTEEN FOR AND I AM ALSO
ACCOMPANIED BY OUR ACADEMICS
VICE CHAIR- JAMES STEIN TRIGGER
AS WELL. AT THE UNIVERSITY IS
PROUD TO ENROLL- AT WORK
COMMUNITY COLLEGE SINCE THE
UNIVERSITY AND ITS TYPE- IN THE
NATION. EACH YEAR WE- RECEIVE
APPROXIMATELY FORTY THOUSAND
TRANSFER APPLICATIONS OF WHICH
75% OF THE STUDENTS GAIN
ADMISSION TO HOUSTON. NEARLY
HALF OF OUR TRANSFER STUDENTS
ARE FIRST GENERATION OR LOW
INCOME AND OVER 30% OR NON
NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKERS IN THE
LAST DECADE ENROLLMENT AMONG
AMONG UNDERREPRESENTED GROUPS
AND TRANSFER. HAS GROWN MUCH
FASTER THAN OVERALL ENROLLMENT
ALTHOUGH THE UNIVERSITY
APPRECIATES AND UNDERSTANDS THE
DESIRE TO STREAMLINE THE
TRANSFER PROCESS. THE CURRENT
LANGUAGE AB SEVENTEEN FORTY NINE
IS NOT REFLECTIVE OF AN APPROACH
THAT PRIORITIZES STUDENT.
SUCCESS AND SUCCESSFUL OUTCOMES
FOR THOSE STUDENTS. IF ADOPTED
AB SEVENTEEN FORTY NINE COULD
HARM STUDENTS BY FORCING THEM TO
TAKE ADDITIONAL COURSES THEY DO
NOT NEED INCREASING THEIR TIME
TO DEGREE. AND ALSO THEIR COST
TO RETAIN THEIR EDUCATION. I IN
ADDITION AB SEVENTY FOUR AND I
WILL NOT ALLOW YOU SEE TO
UTILIZE OUR COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW
PROCESS. UNDERMINING
CONSIDERABLE EFFORTS TO FOSTER
INCLUSIVITY AND WALKING A
STUDENT BODY THAT REFLECTS THE
BROAD COMPOSITION OF THE STATE.
AT THE UC IS PREPARED TO WORK
WITH THE AUTHOR THE LEGISLATURE
IN KEY STAKEHOLDERS. TO FOCUSED
ON STUDENT CENTERED APPROACHES.
TO TRANSFER THIS INCLUDES
FURTHER REFINING THE SYSTEM WIDE
PROPOSAL. THAT WAS DEVELOPED
EARLIER THIS YEAR OR DEVELOPING
A PILOT PROGRAM AT UC CAMPUS
THAT COULD HAVE MEANT THE AT T.
ON A SMALLER SCALE WE COULD
EVALUATE THAT. AND ASK YOU THAT
LOOKS LIKE. THE UNIVERSITY
REMAINS COMMITTED TO HAVING
SUBSTANTIVE CONVERSATIONS
RELATING TO HOW WE CAN FURTHER
IMPROVE THE TRANSFER PROCESS.
AND OUTCOMES THAT PLACE STUDENT
SUCCESS AT THE FOREFRONT AND
I'LL PASS IT OVER TO OUR-
ACADEMIC SENATE VICE CHAIR.
JAMES CENTURY. THANK YOU WELCOME
. THANK YOU. I THANK YOU FOR. OF
MEMBERS OF THE H. COMMITTEE AND
STUFF FOR THIS OP. TO SPEAK WITH
YOU. MY NAME IS JIM START
TRIGGER. I'M A FACULTY MEMBER AT
UC IRVINE AND VICE CHAIR OF THE
ACADEMIC SENATE REPRESENTING
FACULTY FROM ALL TEN UC
CAMPUSES. MY DELEGATION OF THE
UC REGENTS THE ACADEMIC SENATE
ESTABLISHES ADMISSIONS STANDARDS
FOR THE UNIVERSITY OF
CALIFORNIA. THE UC ACADEMIC
SENATE RESPECTFULLY OPPOSES
ASSEMBLY BILL SEVENTEEN FORTY
NINE. ADT'S WILL INCREASE TIME
TO WORRY. EIGHTIES ARE MADE UP
OF TWO COMPONENTS GENERAL
EDUCATION AND CSU MAJOR
PREPARATION CAPPED AT SIXTY
UNITS FOR STEM DISCIPLINES THE
EIGHTY TWO STRUCTURE DOES NOT
PREPARE STUDENTS TO TRANSFER TO
YOU SEE WITH THE COURSEWORK THEY
NEED. TO PERFORM AT A JUNIOR
LEVEL. THERE ARE NO ENGINEERING
AT T. IS FOR THIS REASON. MANY
STEM STUDENTS WILL NEED AT LEAST
THREE YEARS POST TRANSFER TO
COMPLETE THEIR UC DEGREE DEGREES
IF THEY COME WITH AN EIGHTY T.
ALONE. WHEN UNDERPREPARED AT T.
TRANSFER STUDENTS TAKE LONGER
THAN TWO YEARS TO FINISH THIS
REDUCES YOU SEE CAPACITY FOR
ADMITTING NEW STUDENTS. OTHER
EIGHTY TEAM EARNERS ARE HARMED
FOR THE OPPOSITE REASON. YOU SEE
BOUNCE STUDENTS MUST TAKE
COURSES THEY DO NOT NEED FOR
THEIR MAJOR LEAVING THEM WITH
ACCESS COURSE CREDITS. THESE
FACTORS WILL ALSO INCREASE THE
STUDENT EDUCATION COSTS. FINALLY
AB SEVENTEEN FORTY NINE WILL
HARM UC'S ABILITY TO ADMIT
STUDENTS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA. YOU SEE

THANK YOU GUT. GADDA RESEARCHER
SORRY THAT THE DOES- ARE TO GET
GOT EVERYBODY I OF Q. AND VERY
GOOD- LET'S COME BACK TO HEARING
WILL. SENATE GLAZER NAY YOU WANT
TO SPEAK. PLEASE THANK THANK YOU
YOUR NAME AND I HAD A FOR THE
REP BUT DOES PREPARE FOR MICHAEL
LET ME KNOW THIS IS NOT A NEW
ISSUE FOR ME- STRUGGLED AS A AS
A STATE UNIVERSITY TRUSTEE FOR
FOUR YEARS. ON THE TRANSFER
PATHWAY IN THE FRUSTRATIONS
THAT. THAT WE SAW FROM OUR
VANTAGE POINT ON THE ABILITY OF
STUDENTS TO UNDERSTAND THAT
PATHWAY AND FOR IT TO BE- SMOOTH
AND- EFFECTIVE AND THERE WAS A
LOT OF FRUSTRATION THAT SPACE
BUT- MY QUESTION TO YOU SEE IN
YOUR OPPOSITION. WE SAY THAT
IT'S GOING TO REQUIRE A STUDENT
THAT USES THIS TO ACCUMULATE
ACCESS COURSE CREDIT. I DON'T
REALLY UNDERSTAND THAT- ACCESS
COURSE CREDIT THAT DOES SOMEHOW
BE REQUIRED INTO THIS BILL WITH
AT T. COULD YOU EXPLAIN THAT. SO
THEY'RE THEY'RE WONDERFUL TWO
BASIC POSSIBILITIES AND ONE OF
IN TERMS OF WHAT IT WILL DO FOR
A STUDENT TO UNDERSTAND SIDE-
THE EXCESS COURSE CREDIT IS NOT
OUR CONCERN BUT IN OTHER AREAS
EXIST COURSE CREDIT IS A CONCERN
SO TO TAKE THE EXAMPLE OF- OF.
ANTHROPOLOGY FOR EXAMPLE IN IN
THE UC'S- THEY DON'T REQUIRE AS
MUCH- PREPARATION AT THE LOWER
DIVISION IN TERMS OF MAJOR
PREPARATION AS A AS A AS AN
EIGHTY T. WOULD REQUIRE. AND SO
THEY ARE THE SO THEY'RE NOT
TAKING COURSES AT THE AT T.
LEVEL- THAT THAT WILL BE DONE.
USEFUL FOR THEM WHEN THEY GET TO
THE TRANSFER STAGE THEY WOULD
HAVE TO TAKE ADDITIONAL COURSES
AT THAT POINT IS THAT. THEY
DON'T SENSE THAT THAT THAT'S
ADDITIONAL COURSES THAT YOU SAID
THAT AS A RELATED TO ENGINEERING
YOUR TESTIMONY. ANTI HERE SAYING
THAT THE AGENCY'S GOING OUT
FORCED HIM TO TAKE ACCESS
BECAUSE THEY WOULD NEED THEY'RE
GONNA COME IN AS A JUNIOR STATUS
RIGHT SIXTY UNITS JUNIOR STATUS-
AND ARE YOU SAYING THAT THERE
ARE MAJORS LIKE ANTHROPOLOGY.
THAT REQUIRES MORE THAN SIXTY
UNITS- NO TO MY KNOWLEDGE OKAY
SO THE WHAT'S THE- COURSES I
MISSED. I'M TRANSFER I'VE DONE
THE SIXTY UNITS MIGHT LOWER
DIVISION I MATTER POLICY MAJOR.
I'D PRESUMABLY YOU'RE
ANTHROPOLOGY MAJOR OF REQUIRE
SIXTY UNITS ARE LAST TO GET THAT
DEGREE. SO NOW WHAT'S THE ACCESS
COURSES THAT THIS IS GOING TO
FORCE UPON THEM A BIT OF A THAT
THEY HAVE TAKEN THAT THEY DIDN'T
NEED SURE I THINK. WE CAN
HIGHLIGHT IS THAT AT T. IS
REALLY FOCUSED ON GENERAL AT TO
THE FULL SIXTY UNITS YEAH YOU
KNOW GENERAL AT THE FIRST YEAR I
THINK. WE SAW BILL IN THIS
COMMITTEE LAST YEAR AND THAT
SORT OF HARMONIZED I GUESS IF
YOU WILL THE TO GENERAL AT
PATHWAYS. THE DIFFERENCE WITHIN
UC AND CSU WHEN IT COMES TO SAY
TRANSFER PATHWAYS VERSES THE AT
T. IS THAT IN THE SECOND YEAR
THE EXTRA THAT THE SECOND THIRTY
UNITS. WE'RE ASKING STUDENTS TO
FOCUS MORE ON MAJOR PREPARATION
WE SAY THERE ARE SOME GENERAL ED
COURSES THAT YOU CAN TAKE WHEN
YOU'RE A JUNIOR IN AND IT WILL
BE FINE SO WE WANT STUDENTS TO
FOCUS ON. THE MAJOR PREPARATION
FOR THE COURSE ISN'T IN THAT
PATH WHERE THAT TAG- THAT
PROGRAM. YEAH I THINK IN IN THE
INSTANCE OF THE ATC YOU'D BE
SORT OF REQUIRED TO TAKE THE
SIXTY UNITS OF GENERAL ED EVEN
IF YOU SEE FOR EXAMPLE YOU WERE
EXPECTED TO TAKE THOSE GENERAL
ED COURSES OR COULD TAKE THOSE
GENERAL ED COURSES. AT THE
JUNIOR LEVEL EVEN MADE AT THE
SENIOR LEVEL AT IT BUT WHERE IS
THE USE YOUR SAYING THEY TOOK
ACCESS IT YOU REALLY MEAN THAT
THEY TOOK COURSES THAT YOU DON'T
THINK ARE ELIGIBLE. FOR THOSE
DEGREE MAJORS AT UC I THINK IT'S
NOT ELIGIBLE I HEAR WHAT YOU'RE
SAYING SENATORS ON TRYING TO
STAND ARE YOU GOING TO. ARE YOU
SAYING THAT THAT TRANSFER
PATHWAY. MEANS THEY HAVE TO TAKE
MORE THAN SIXTY UNITS TO GET A
DEGREE. IT IN THE- T. THAT THERE
COULD CERTAIN. THAT YOU. WHERE
THAT COULD OCCUR IN CASES THAT.
THANK YOU AND THAT IS EXACTLY
WHAT I THINK THIS IS A GOOD
BILL. IS IT THIS IS TRYING TO
RECONCILE. THE AND SMOOTH OUT
THE PATHWAY FOR STUDENTS SO THAT
WHEN THEY TAKE THAT GENERAL
EDUCATION. IT'S APPLICABLE. AND
THAT THAT THAT TRANSFERRED THE
UC ISN'T GONNA PUT ON ADDITIONAL
COURSE REQUIREMENTS. THEY GET IN
THE WAY OF THAT THEIR AS A
SUCCESSOR ADDED YOU AGREE AND
THAT'S BECAUSE- THE A. I. AT.
THAT THE PROBLEM IS THE UC. IS
NOT COMMUNICATING TO THE
COMMUNITY COLLEGES TO MAKE SURE
THAT ALL IS ALIGNED CORRECTLY.
SO THAT WHEN THAT STUDENT TAKES
THAT COURSE THEY KNOW THAT IT'S
A TRANSFERABLE COURSE. SO THEY
DON'T HAVE TO TAKE ACCESS UNITS
NOBODY WANTS THE ACCESS UNITS
RIGHT. AS WE WERE TRYING TO
BREAK DOWN HERE. AND THAT WAS
THE EXACT FRUSTRATION THAT THE
STATE UNIVERSITIES HAD IN THIS.
AT T. AREA. IS THAT THE FACULTY
WERE NOT CERTIFYING THOSE
COMMUNITY COLLEGE COURSES. AND
THEREFORE THEY WERE NOT BEING
EXT FOUND TO BE ACCEPTABLE. AT
THE CSU ENFORCING MORE BURDENS
AND MORE OBLIGATIONS ON THE
STUDENTS. AND SO MY SUMMARY IN
THE SPACES THAT. THIS IS THE
PART THAT WE LOVE THE MISSION.
OF THE STATE UNIVERSITIES IN THE
UC. YOU GUYS ARE INCREDIBLE TO
WHAT YOU DO. BUT THAT THIS IS
WHERE THE- IS REALLY HURTING OUR
STUDENTS. AND WHAT THIS BILL.
PURPORTS TO- TO TRY TO SMOOTH
OUT. WHICH IS THAT. KNOWING IN
ADVANCE THE COURSES YOU TAKE ARE
APPLICABLE. FOR THE TRANSFER
THAT'S WHAT THIS. BILL IS GOING
TO. CREATE BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT
THE STUDENTS TO TRANSFER AND
NOT. A AND WE HAVE TO TAKE EXTRA
COURSES. BUT THE IDEA IS THAT
ALIGNMENT NEEDS TO HAPPEN AND IT
HASN'T HAPPENED. AND IS TAKING
YEARS FOR IT TO HAPPEN AT THE
STATE UNIVERSITY LEVEL. WHICH
HAS A LOT OF US VERY FRUSTRATED
I KNOW. ASSEMBLY MEMBER MCCARTY-
YOUR OF YOUR CO AUTHOR IN THIS
ASSEMBLY MEMBER BERMAN. HAS
LEGISLATED IN THIS AREA QUITE-
ADMIRABLY. TO TRY TO BREAK DOWN
THIS COMMUNICATION ISSUE THE
CERTIFICATION ISSUE. THAT ONLY
GOES OUT TO SCREW THE STUDENTS.
AND STOPS THEM FROM FROM
ACHIEVING THAT DEGREE AND THAT'S
WHY. THIS ISN'T A PERFECT BILL.
BUT IT'S A LINE WITH I THINK THE
VALUES THAT WE HAVE WHICH IS THE
STUDENT CENTERED. MAKING SURE
THAT. THEY KNOW HAD WHAT THEY
NEED TO DO. AND ALL THE BURDENS
THAT THEY GO THROUGH TO GO TO A
HIGHER EDUCATION WHEN THERE'S A
COMMUNITY COLLEGE OR BEYOND. AND
ALL THE DEBT THAT THEY
ACCUMULATE. IS ON A PATHWAY
THAT'S GONNA GET THEM
SUCCESSFUL. THE BASIS OF YOUR
OPPOSITION LETTER REALLY SEEMS
TO BE ABOUT. YOU WANT TO
DETERMINE WHO'S GOING TO BE
SUCCESSFUL AT THE UNIVERSITY.
THAT'S THE TWO OR THREE
PARAGRAPHS IN THE ANALYSIS THAT
SEEM TO BE APPLICABLE HERE. YOU
WANT TO MAKE THAT CHOICE. VERSES
THE STUDENTS. FOLLOWING ALL THE
RULES. HAVING THAT CHOICE BE
CLEAR TO THEM. AND I APPRECIATE
THAT I AND I UNDERSTAND AND THE
VALUES THAT YOU LAY OUT AS TO
WHY YOU WANT TO MAKE A CHOICE.
THAT'S ALSO WHY. YOU IN IN THE
WISDOM OF THE UC OF DETERMINE
THE STANDARDIZED TESTS WERE NOT
THE DETERMINATION OF STUDENT
SUCCESS. AT A COLLEGE IN Y.
YOU'VE ABANDONED. A STANDARDIZED
TESTS IS THAT STANDARD BUT LOOK
HOW MANY DECADES AND DECADES OF
BLOCKAGE. THAT CREATED FOR
STUDENTS TO THE POINT WHERE YOU
DECIDED TO IT WASN'T THE
PATHWAY. I THAT THAT REALLY
WASN'T A DETERMINANT OF SUCCESS
IN COLLEGE. SO I KNOW THAT'S A
FOCUS AND THERE'S A GOOD REASON
FOR WE WANT THE STUDENTS TO BE
SUCCESSFUL. BUT I THINK THIS
BILL IS THE RIGHT KNOWLEDGE THE
LITTLE BIT MORE THAN A NUDGE.
BUT I THINK IT'S IN THE RIGHT
DIRECTION IS NOT PERFECT. AND IT
DOES REQUIRE THE COOPERATION OF
THE FACULTY. AT THE UNIVERSITY
OF CALIFORNIA. AND THE FACULTY
AT THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE JUST TO
BE CLEAR. BUT THAT'S THE
BUREAUCRACY THAT A BILL LIKE
THIS TRIES TO BREAK THROUGH. FOR
THE BETTERMENT OF STUDENTS AND
THEIR SUCCESS GOING FORWARD AND
WITH THAT I'M I'M HAPPY TO
SUPPORT IN THE BILL APPRECIATE
IT DIDN'T MISTER. S. CENTER YOU
GO AHEAD YEAH. IF I COULD JUST
BRIEFLY. APPROACH THE ALIGNMENT
ISSUE TO MAKE SURE THAT I'M
UNDERSTANDING YOU CORRECTLY AND
EXPRESSING THE UC. VIEWPOINT ON
THIS- ADEQUATELY. SO- BUT- THE
ALLY. ISSUE THE WAY I AM. IT IS
A LACK OF ALIGNMENT IN THE AT T.
REQUIREMENTS. BETWEEN THE- THE
CSU REQUIREMENTS. AND THE UC
REQUIREMENTS. SO IF I CAN TAKE
THE CASE OF- OF BIOLOGY. RIGHT
WE'RE IN SOME C. ISSUES- ORGANIC
CHEMISTRY IS. IS NOT REQUIRED AT
THE LOWER DIVISION LEVEL.
WHEREAS AT THE UC'S. IT IS.
RIGHT SO BUT ALIGNMENTS THEN
MEAN. THAT THE UC'S. NO LONGER.
REQUIRE ORGANIC CHEMISTRY. AT
THE LOWER DIVISION LEVEL THE UC
POSITION ON THAT HAS BEEN. TO
LET. THE FACULTY- DETERMINE WHAT
IS THE BEST A SEQUENCE FOR
STUDENTS. TO SUCCEED AT THE UC
IN A BIOLOGY MAJOR AND SO THERE
YOU'RE RIGHT THERE IS A LACK OF
ALIGNMENT THERE THE QUESTION IS-
WHAT ALIGNING- ACTUALLY HAVE A
NEGATIVE IMPACT ON STUDENT
SUCCESS HOST TRANSFER INTO THE
UC OR WOULD IT REQUIRE STUDENTS
WERE TRANSFERRING THE CSU TO DO
MORE. ALL ORDER ORACLE THEN THEY
THEN THEY WOULD NEED TO DO SO
THE ALIGNMENT. ISSUE IS IT IS A
REAL ONE. BUT WE DON'T THINK
THIS OF THIS LEGISLATION SOLVE
THAT PARTICULAR PROBLEM THANK
YOU LEARN OF YOU RESPONDED TO IT
GO AHEAD I'M HAPPY TO BRIEFLY
RESPOND LOOK AYE AYE THESE ARE
GOOD QUESTIONS AND THIS IS WHAT
WE EXPECT THE FACULTY TO WORK
OUT. THE IT SHOULDN'T BE WITH
THE STUDENTS- THAT- OF FIND
THEMSELVES IN A SITUATION WHERE
THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE TAKING
THE CLASS THAT HAD THE ORGANIC
CHEMISTRY AND BIOLOGY AND FIND
THAT IT DIDN'T WORK FOR YOU SEE.
THAT THAT'S BEEN THE PROBLEM IS
THAT THAT COMMUNICATION HAS TO
HAPPEN BETWEEN THE FACULTY SO
THAT WHEN THE STUDENTS TAKE THAT
CLASS THEY KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IT
MEANS. AND NOT BE CONFUSED IN
THAT THEY TOOK THE UNITS AND
SOMEHOW IT DIDN'T WORK. I THINK
WE'RE IN IN AGREEMENT ON THAT
BUT IT BUT THE FURTHER CONCERN
THAT WE HAVE IS THAT WE DON'T
WANT TO STUDENT TRANSFERRING.
INTO SAY BIO IN THE UC. THINKING
THAT THEY DID HE HAS GIVEN THEM
EVERYTHING THAT THEY NEED TO BE
READY TO BE A JUNIOR. AND
REALIZING AT THAT POINT THAT
THAT IT'S ACTUALLY INSUFFICIENT.
TO BE A JUNIOR BECAUSE THEY
DIDN'T GET THAT WHAT THEY NEEDED
A THIRTY TWO LEVEL. SORRY I
CANNOT DIE WILL SAVE MY PART I
THINK THAT'S FAIR CONCERN. ALL
RIGHT LET ME SEE I CAN
PARAPHRASE SO WHAT WHAT YOU'RE
SAYING MISTER ROGERS IT'S THAT-
WHAT MAY BE. GOOD OR NECESSARY
TO USE INITIALLY GOOD FOR A
MAJOR. YET DO YOU SEE. VERY GOOD
WHICH IS ESPECIALLY GIVEN HOW
YOU EMPHASIZE. COURSE COURSES OR
PREREQUISITES THE FIRST TWO
YEARS. DURING THAT TIME WHEN
SOMEBODY WOULD BE. THAT DIDN'T
YOU KNOW PRIOR TO TRANSFER. SO
THAT'S THAT'S A PROBLEM THAT
STILL NEEDS TO BE SOLVED. DON'T
YOU CAN RESPOND WELL I MEAN I
CAN RESULT. RIDLEY RESPONSE JUST
TO SAY. THAT WITH THAT. IF WE
TAKE ENGINEERS THERE IS AN
EXAMPLE WHY IS WHY ARE THERE NO.
MURDER. AT T. IT IS FOR
ENGINEERING. IT'S PRECISELY. OF
THE SEQUENCE. AND THE LOW
DIVISION UP. LIKE DID I GET
ISSUE BUT THERE ARE TRANSFERRED
THERE ARE TRANSFER PATHWAYS INTO
THE UC UNDERSTOOD BUT IT'S HARD
TO STANDARDIZE THOSE THOSE PATH
WHICH IS HARD TO ALIGN THEM WITH
THE EXISTING EIGHTY. SIX SOME.
MAINLY STUFF I GET THAT SO THAT
THE THAT I THINK IS MORE- JUST
TO RELEVANT HERE IS THERE'S A
JURISDICTIONAL QUESTION THERE'S
A TENSION- THE S. TO THE
LEGISLATURE'S ABILITY TO COMPEL.
THE UC WHICH IS AUTONOMOUS YOU
KNOW FIGHT CONSTITUTIONAL.
PREROGATIVE TO DO THINGS RIGHT
SO YOU KNOW I SHALL SAY
APPRECIATE. YOU FOLKS SHOULD BE
PART OF THIS CONVERSATION- BUT
CLEARLY THERE MAY BE A LIMIT. AS
TO HOW FAR WE CAN. ASSUME OR
PRESS THE UC TO DO THESE THINGS-
AND THAT'S- THE A IN A BAG I
GUESS THAT'S A QUESTION FOR YOU
ASSEMBLY MEMBER. HOW HOW SHOULD
WE CONSIDER THAT AS WE CONSIDER
THIS. LEGISLATION YES I THINK
YOU AND I DO APPRECIATE THAT AND
MAYBE TWO IF HE COULD. HEAR THE
END OF THE CAMPAIGN FOR COLLEGE
OPPORTUNITY WANTED TO ENGAGE IN
A LITTLE BIT THE BACK THINK
WE'RE PRETTY CLEAR OKAY BUT IT'S
NOT ON THE MONEY THANK YOU. NOT
THIS LIMITS BUT IT IS A MANY
THINK SO HERE'S THE DEAL MOST
BILLS THAT THE LEGISLATURE
PASSES THAT REQUESTS YOU SEE TO
DO SOMETHING GRANTED WE REQUEST
THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE. ALONE IN
THE STATE CONSTITUTION. THE USE
GO ALONG AND IT. AT THE Y. SO
THERE ARE PART WITH THE STATE
OF. LEGISLATURE WITH FUNDING WE
FIND OVER A THIRD OF THEIR BASE
SUPPORT WITH- JUST GENERAL FUND
LINE ITEM TO THE ARREST
CALIFORNIA PLUS MONEY WE GIVE
YOU THE CAL GRANT PROGRAMS. SO
TECHNICALLY YES THEY COULD
IGNORE THIS BILL IF IT'S PASSED
BY THE LEGISLATURE SIGNED BY THE
GOVERNOR. USUALLY DOWN AND THEN
WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY THROUGH
THE BUDGET PROCESS TO RECONCILE
THOSE THINGS MADE BIGGEST KNOWN
PRECIADO SECRETIONS UC'S
WILLINGNESS COME BE PART OF THIS
CONVERSATION- ANY OTHER COMMENTS
FROM. MEMBERS THE SEARCH- BOTH.
LOOK AT MY WATCH GOOD. PLEASE I
DID I JUST QUIT ARE. I SAID IT.
BUT RESPECTFULLY TO THE IT IS
THE VICE CHAIR I JUST HAD ONE-
QUESTION FOR CLERK. I'M NOT SURE
. IF THIS IS SOMETHING THAT THE-
THE AUTHOR CAN ANSWER SOMEONE
FROM FROM. THE FACULTY. BUT IT'S
AN AVENUE TO THIS IS THE
CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION PROVIDES
A TIME WHICH THE REGENTS OF THE
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA. TO
OPERATE THE UNIVERSITY. ECONOMY
COMES WITH THE EXPENSE OF THE
LEGISLATORS BEING ABLE TO DIRECT
THE UC TO DO ANYTHING THAT THEY
WANT TO DO. LEISURE SAYS THE
OVERSIGHT OF THE UC. BUBBA M. SO
. HOW DOES THIS FALL WITH THE IN
THE- CONSTITUTIONALITY. PRINCE
EDWARD I HAVE PROBLEM WITH MY
BRACES HERE BUT AND HOW DOES
THIS WORK WITHIN THAT SCOPE OF
HAVING THE AUTONOMY THAT THEY
HAVE- RECONCILING THIS FROM THE
LEGISLATURE AND THERE ARE TIME
ME. TO MAKE DECISIONS. YEAH I'LL
GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE FOR YEARS
AGO SENATOR GLAZERS GLAZER-
GRAYSON YOUR I GET A MIXED UP
ALSO FAMED GEOGRAPHY AREA. THE
MEMBER GRAYSON AND AYE WHO'S
ACTUALLY GOING TO BE GOING TO
HIS AREA. GET A BILL ON UC
ADMISSIONS ON COMPARE FAVORABLY
FOR NON RESIDENT STUDENTS. IN
THERE WE REQUESTED UC TO MAKE
THIS CHANGE BECAUSE WE CAN'T
DIRECT THEM IN THE CONSTITUTION.
THEY THEY COULD HAVE IGNORED IT
BUT THEY THEY WENT ALONG AND
IMPLEMENTED USUALLY THEY DO.
THEY ARE PARTNER AND AS I JUST
TOLD- THE CHAIR OF COURSE YOU
KNOW WE OVER WE HAVE A ROLE IN
FUNDING THE UNIVERSE CALIFORNIA
OVER A THIRD OF THEIR- REVENUE
FOR THEIR CORE OPERATIONS COMES
FROM THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA FOR
THE BUDGET PROCESS WE JUST.
CREATE INCREASES FUNDING
YESTERDAY BY FIVE PERCENT. AND
SO YOU KNOW I THINK THEY HAVE.
AN UNDERSTANDING THAT WORKING
WITH THE LEGISLATURE AND OUR
WISHES BILLS ARE SIGNED BY THE
GOVERNOR AS WELL. AS IN ALL OF
OUR COLLECTIVE BEST INTERESTS SO
TECHNICALLY THAT'S TRUE IT COULD
BE IGNORED BUT IN PRACTICE- YOU
KNOW USUALLY IT THAT IT WORKS
OUT. SO IN MY UNDERSTANDING
BASED ON WHAT YOU'RE SAYING JUST
BROKE UP THERE BECAUSE YOU DON'T
SEE THAT THIS IT. IN TRUTH IN
THE CONSTITUTIONAL. THAT THEY
HAVE. WELL IT DOESN'T BECAUSE AS
WE DRAFTED UP THE BILL RIGHT IN
FRONT OF ME WE- WE HAVE A LINE
IN THERE WHICH.
YEAH I DON'T HAVE IN FRONT OF ME
BUT- IT WOULD REQUEST THAT THEIR
THE UNIVERSE CALIFORNIA REGIONS
TO DO SO AND THEN YOU KNOW THEY
OF COURSE HAVE THEIR
CONSTITUTIONAL ECONOMY AND- THE
DAY AFTER- PROCEED ACCORDINGLY
AS THEY WISH. YOUR AVAILABLE
MOTION TO ANYBODY ELSE. SINCE
AUGUST SUPPORT THE BILL AND I'M
HAPPY TO MOVE THE MOTION AND I
JUST WANT TO SAY HOW MANY
CONVERSATIONS WE'VE HAD ON
COMMITTEE AT JUST ABOUT THE NEED
FOR US TO HAVE. BETTER AND MORE-
OF POSITIVE OUTCOMES IN OUR
TRANSFER STUDENTS INTO OUR CSU
AND UC SYSTEM- WE OFTEN ARE
FALLING SHORT OF WHERE WE NEED
TO SEE IMPROVEMENTS AND I THINK
THIS HELPS. US REALLY ENSURE
THAT WE'RE GIVING THAT
OPPORTUNITY TO AS MANY STUDENTS
AS POSSIBLE ONE TO UNDERSTAND
THAT THEY CAN'T TRANSFER. AND
THAT THEY CAN TRANSFER. IN A WAY
THAT ALLOWS THEM TO PURSUE THE
DISCIPLINES THAT THEY WANT TO
PURSUE WITHOUT UNNECESSARY-
BARRIERS AND- AND STREAMLINING
IN SOME WAYS THE PROCESS SO I
WANT TO SUPPORT THIS BILL AND I-
MISTER CHAIR WILL MOVE FOR WHEN
THE TIME IS RIGHT AND I THINK WE
ARE THE MOTION PERCENTAGE BUT
THANK YOU- AND SO WE DO SERVICE
HE DID MOVE THE BILL. YES SIR-
SHOW EMOTIONS JERRY GLAZER-
ASSEMBLY MEMBER MCCARTY WOULD
YOU LIKE TO CLOSE THANK YOU I
APPRECIATE THIS CONVERSATION
THIS IS. TECHNICAL AND
COMPLICATED BUT IT REALLY ISN'T.
WE REALLY MAKE IT WAY TOO HARD
FOR STUDENTS THIS IS A PROBLEM
TOO OFTEN FRANKLY WITH ADULTS.
HURTADO AND THE PEOPLE THAT LOSE
OUR COMMUNITY COLLEGE STUDENTS
IS NO WONDER THAT ONLY TWO AND A
HALF PERCENT OF TRICK
COMMUNICORP STUDENTS TRANSFER
WITHIN TWO YEARS. IT'S WAY TOO
COMPLICATED SAID. AND I DON'T
FEEL LIKE ME UNDERSTAND THERE'S
PUSH BACK FROM THE UNIVERSITY
THERE ARE NINE UNDERGRADUATE.
UC'S ONE MERCED GRANTED A
SMALLER SCHOOL ALREADY DOES THIS
. THIS PAST WEEK IN UCLA WAS
ABOUT TO DO IT THROUGH THE
BUDGET PROCESS WE SAID NOW WE
WANT TO DO IT THROUGH THE POLICY
PROCESS HERE TODAY. ALL OF THEM
THAT WOULD'VE BEEN OVER 20% OF
THE UC STUDENTS WITH UCLA MERCED
DOING THIS AT T. 70% OF STUDENTS
WHO ENROLL EVERY YEAR AS A
TRANSFER HAD TO THE EDT. STORE
THEIR WORK WHERE IT'S NOT THAT
COMPLICATED. ONE MORE THING REAL
QUICK AND THIS IS WHAT MR GLAZER
WAS MENTIONING. FOR STUDENTS
THAT APPLY FOR ANTHROPOLOGY TO
STUDENTS ONCE APPLYING TO UC
BERKELEY ONCE APPLYING TO UC SAN
DIEGO- THE SAN DIEGO APPLICANT
REQUIRES NO LOWER DIVISION UNITS
FOR THE BERKELEY REQUIRES NINE.
SO WE MAKE THESE THINGS WAY TOO
COMPLICATED UNNECESSARILY THIS
FOR ONCE AND FOR ALL WOULD
WOULD- SIMPLIFY AND STREAMLINE
THE SYSTEM NOT ONLY FOR THE
UNIVERSITY CALIFORNIA. TO BE
ALSO WITH THE CSU SYSTEM THE TO
MAKE IT EASIER FOR A COMMUNITY
COLLEGE STUDENTS TO TRANSFER AND
WE NEED THIS THEIR SUCCESS IS
OUR SUCCESS. WE'RE WE'RE HAVING
A DIP IN ENROLLMENT AT ADDS THAT
CSU AND THE UC'S SOME OTHER
CAMPUSES DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH
COMMUNITY COLLEGE TRANSFER SINCE
THE ASKED US TO CHANGE OUR RULES
TO ALLOW THEM. AT ZERO MARK
FRESHMAN WE NEED TO MAKE IT
EASIER FOR A COMMUNITY COLLEGE
STUDENTS TO GO ON TO GET A FOUR
YEAR DEGREE. AND BY DOING SO
ALLOWS HIM TO GRADUATE A SHORTER
PERIOD TIMES LESS STUDENT DEBT.
IS ALL THESE THINGS ARE
INTERCONNECTED THIS IS A WIN FOR
CALIFORNIA FOR OUR STUDENTS AND
RESPECTFULLY ASK RIVAL. AND THIS
