[16:13] mitchell was prepared Mister
[16:20] Secretary please read. Assembly
[16:22] bill five thirty nine by
[16:23] assembly member the mon an act
[16:25] relating to consumer loans.
[16:27] Mitchell for jurors thank you
[16:29] very much Mister President ab
[16:30] five three nine colleagues is
[16:31] an important consumer
[16:34] protection bill that from my
[16:35] perspective is years overdue.
[16:38] Because of our lacks lindy laws
[16:40] extremely high cost loans have
[16:41] exploded in california over the
[16:43] past decade. These loans are
[16:45] offered in payday and title
[16:46] loans stores and over the
[16:48] internet with loan amounts
[16:49] starting at twenty five hundred
[16:52] dollars to avoid the interest
[16:54] rate caps in existing law.
[16:55] These high cost loans at
[16:58] interest rates from one hundred
[16:59] to more than two hundred
[17:01] percent. And far too often
[17:03] consumers are unable to repay
[17:05] them. In fact the senate
[17:06] banking committee announces
[17:07] cited a study commissioned by
[17:09] high cost lenders that found
[17:11] that nearly 40% of their
[17:13] borrowers into in collections.
[17:15] This process result in damage
[17:16] credit rating for the consumer
[17:18] and can lead to their paycheck
[17:19] being garnished their bank
[17:21] account closed or their cars be
[17:23] repossessed. The authors of
[17:25] this bill have worked hard to
[17:27] find a compromise that could
[17:29] earn suport from both consumer
[17:31] groups and reasonable linda is
[17:32] a lie. And this bill is the
[17:34] result of those long
[17:37] negotiations. The bill is
[17:38] supported by a strong coalition
[17:40] of local government labor
[17:41] organizations religious
[17:43] organizations and veterans
[17:44] groups to support this effort
[17:45] including my own board of
[17:47] supervisors in los angeles
[17:49] county. After so any years of
[17:52] failed attempts to address this
[17:55] problem we ask you. To advance
[17:56] this important policy that will
[17:57] benefit both consumers and
[17:59] reasonable lenders alike I
[18:02] asked for an aye vote. Many
[18:04] additional description debate
[18:05] center y. Costly yes Mister
[18:07] President I rise today in
[18:09] support of ab five three nine
[18:10] as a co author and urge my
[18:13] colleagues to join me in
[18:13] standing up for our
[18:15] constituents no for too long a
[18:17] predatory lenders have held
[18:18] sway over this legislature and
[18:22] blocked attempts to set a rate
[18:22] caps. That prohibits them from
[18:24] charging you service fees from
[18:26] consumers when I started
[18:28] practicing bankruptcy law
[18:30] thirty five years ago the
[18:34] creditors fire say throughput
[18:34] charge 18% on a five thousand
[18:38] dollar loan. In we thought my
[18:39] God it's beyond that twelve to.
[18:42] 10% that people would have I
[18:43] know all too well that these
[18:46] predatory loans soon turned
[18:47] into a mountain of debt that
[18:49] can never be repaid resulting
[18:50] in wage garnishment and bank
[18:52] levees which I've personally
[18:54] sought. To rein in on my own
[18:56] legislation I urge an aye vote
[18:59] on this long overdue piece of
[19:00] legislation. Thank you senator
[19:05] roth. Think of it President
[19:07] Colleagues I too am a co author
[19:09] of this measure because-these
[19:11] protections are sorely needed
[19:13] for all borrowers and that
[19:14] specifically includes are
[19:16] vulnerable veterans. You know
[19:17] federal law prohibits lenders
[19:19] from charging more than 36%
[19:21] interest to active duty
[19:23] military and their families.
[19:24] And the department of defense%
[19:27] fought very very hard for these
[19:28] protections because our service
[19:30] members frankly should not have
[19:31] any additional stress put on
[19:33] them by certain lenders this
[19:35] bill will ensure veterans and
[19:36] all californians are protected
[19:38] from unconscionable fees and
[19:39] interest rates. Which can
[19:41] frankly haunt them long after
[19:43] the principal amount has been
[19:46] paid off so please join me in
[19:46] supporting this very very
[19:50] important measure. Thank you
[19:50] any further discussion and
[19:54] debate senator dally. Thank you
[19:56] Mister President members I saw
[19:58] this bill in the assembly voted
[19:59] for and then I got put on
[20:01] baking when I got in the senate
[20:02] first time I've ever had the
[20:03] opportunity to serve under
[20:06] great chair by the way. This
[20:07] bill been amended some I think
[20:10] this is good for consumers it's
[20:13] abi supporting this bill today
[20:14] and I know that are a caucus
[20:16] housing oppose on the bill but
[20:17] I think this is the right thing
[20:18] to do for those who have been
[20:21] taking advantage of in many
[20:22] situations so I region I vote
[20:25] this bill. Center grove.
[20:29] Thank you I am rise in a-
[20:31] oppose opposition to this bill
[20:32] and-we have to think about
[20:34] where are people going to get
[20:35] credit. If you have bad credit
[20:37] and you have. Not fulfilled
[20:39] your obligations in the past of
[20:42] paying your bills. And making
[20:44] sure that your credit is good.
[20:47] Then you can't just expect. Of
[20:48] a in a financial institution to
[20:50] take a risk on you when you're
[20:52] a bad risk in the first place.
[20:54] The way people get out of that
[20:56] situation is they get the short
[20:58] term loans and yes they are a
[20:59] very high interest rate but
[21:00] once they go through that
[21:02] process. Then they go to. A
[21:04] regular financial institution
[21:06] and they go look. I used I had
[21:07] bad credit but over the last
[21:09] year I've maintain my payments.
[21:11] At this higher interest rate
[21:12] and the ease back into their
[21:14] credit rating so that they can.
[21:16] Establish a good credit again.
[21:19] But to require or cat people's
[21:20] interest rates and I realize
[21:22] that they do have high interest
[21:23] rates. But the bottom line is
[21:26] that. You if you cap it are
[21:27] they really going to take a
[21:29] risk and invest and let people
[21:31] have high risk loans. Out there
[21:33] so they can try to re establish
[21:35] their credit. You're asking the
[21:36] banks or their asking lending
[21:37] institutions are these
[21:39] organizations that land to
[21:41] these. Particular people that
[21:43] want. To re establish their
[21:45] credit after destroying it. For
[21:47] whatever reason. And to have
[21:50] that to have that cap and not.
[21:51] And not have a lending
[21:53] institution available for them
[21:54] to be able to access credit to
[21:55] rebuild their credit. Is
[21:57] something that I think will
[22:01] cause a detriment to harm. To
[22:02] them in the long term the
[22:06] future meyer j. No vote. Thank
[22:08] you senator dorado. Thank you
[22:10] Mister President I heard a lot
[22:13] about these. A payday. Loans
[22:14] and didn't have a very
[22:16] favorable attitude but I didn't
[22:18] think kind of thought the way
[22:19] my colleague just described
[22:22] that. It was an opportune for
[22:24] poor people to get access to
[22:26] some money but when I saw
[22:29] actual agreements. Copies of
[22:32] agreements. Where they had
[22:34] borrowed two thousand dollars
[22:37] maybe and it went up to ten and
[22:38] twelve thousand dollars was
[22:40] what they were actually going
[22:43] to pay back. I was floored I
[22:45] was shocked how could we take
[22:47] advantage of poor people that
[22:50] way that means they become for
[22:54] er indebted. And they can't
[22:56] keep up and that just seemed
[22:59] like a complete abuse so
[23:01] there's a difference between
[23:03] taking a risk and completely
[23:05] abusing of poor people and
[23:07] forcing them to stay in poverty
[23:10] for many more years so that's
[23:11] frankly what convinced me to
[23:16] support this bill. Senate allen.
[23:17] Thank you Mister President is
[23:19] one of also mention that we did
[23:21] put in the senate financial
[23:22] literacy in this bill so that
[23:24] we can educate those folks to
[23:26] what they're actually paying in
[23:28] a captive so I wanted to bring
[23:29] that point up I think it's
[23:30] critical it was it was
[23:31] something that I think those
[23:32] folks who are trying to get
[23:34] that the loans need to know
[23:35] what's gonna happen in and
[23:37] hopefully in the future we
[23:37] would teach these kind of
[23:39] things in school where the
[23:40] compounding interest as your
[23:42] friend if you're saving money
[23:43] and it your enemy if you're
[23:46] borrowing money no to the
[23:46] things. That people to borrow
[23:49] money needed no. Thank you
[23:52] senator senator cafiero. Thank
[23:53] you Mister President I want to
[23:55] rise in support of this bill
[23:57] and thank the author for her
[23:59] hard work on it this is not an
[24:01] easy space to do work in and
[24:02] the reason that it's not is
[24:07] that while we May not like the
[24:09] interest rates they get charged
[24:11] the bottom line is that people
[24:12] need access to money. And they
[24:16] need a regulated industry in
[24:19] order to be able to get access
[24:20] to that money otherwise if we
[24:22] close off all the alternatives
[24:24] they end up going to an
[24:27] unregulated market and so I
[24:30] want to just say that I really
[24:31] appreciate the hard work that
[24:34] went into this I appreciate the
[24:35] compromises that were made and
[24:38] I would. Encourage you to vote
[24:42] yes on this bi. The bill
[24:44] thank you any additional
[24:45] comments on this issues center
[24:47] mature you May cose thank you
[24:48] very much Mister President
[24:49] colleagues I would strongly
[24:52] suggest that we not. Paying
[24:57] that ninety the k. About credit.
[25:01] To a search or assume that you
[25:03] can earn credit by being taken
[25:06] advantage of. By someone who's
[25:10] going to charge you 2100% on a
[25:11] twenty five hundred dollar loan
[25:14] is just not the case. How many
[25:16] of us here on the floor know
[25:17] off the top of your head. The
[25:19] credit the interest rate you're
[25:22] paying on your home loan or the
[25:23] credit cards in your bill
[25:26] folder purse. How many of us
[25:30] have been laid or our debt
[25:32] ratio is increased and our
[25:34] interest rates have increased.
[25:35] Had it been proactive enough to
[25:36] make sure that you call that
[25:38] credit company or that loan
[25:40] holder to get that interest
[25:42] rate down and how quickly did
[25:45] that interest rate dropped. So
[25:47] to suggest that one of these
[25:49] loans is the best way to build
[25:52] credit I think is not accurate.
[25:54] If this bill passes will
[25:55] borrower still have access to
[25:58] credit. The answer is yes
[25:59] linder that support the bill
[26:00] are already serving the
[26:02] majority borrows who can't
[26:03] qualify for credit card or bank
[26:06] loans. The author has also
[26:07] heard from a number of lenders
[26:09] into his who were in opposition
[26:11] to the bill who stated that
[26:12] they'll reconfigure to comply
[26:15] with the bill why. Because they
[26:16] are clear that there is a
[26:18] market out there. Let's also
[26:20] not forget that more than one
[26:21] hundred thousand californians
[26:22] default in high cost loans each
[26:24] year. This bill will help to
[26:26] ensure that they have credit
[26:28] options in the future. Because
[26:30] their financial well being is
[26:30] not being ruined by on
[26:34] affordable loans. In the event
[26:35] that none of us have had the
[26:37] opportunity to have to secure
[26:37] one of these loans let me walk
[26:38] you through a real life
[26:40] scenario. Just so we're all
[26:44] clear before we cast our vote.
[26:46] Hey unnamedcar title loan
[26:50] company. Gave a gentleman alone
[26:51] for two thousand seven hundred
[26:52] dollars. With an apr oone
[26:56] hundred and 23% with a thirty
[26:59] five month term on the loan. By
[27:00] the end of the long term the
[27:03] borrower will pay eight
[27:03] thousand one hundred twenty
[27:06] three dollars in interest. A
[27:10] total of ten thousand eight
[27:10] hundred twenty three dollars to
[27:14] borrow twenty seven hundred.
[27:15] That makes sense you think
[27:17] that's appropriate or safe for
[27:18] or something that you would
[27:21] sign the bottom line when
[27:22] you're back was against the
[27:22] wall and you need to twenty
[27:25] seven hundred dollars. The loan
[27:28] is secured by the borrowers car.
[27:30] And in the fine print of the
[27:32] credit application they ask for
[27:34] a copy of the borrowers car
[27:40] keys. This borrower was lured
[27:41] into the store with signs that
[27:43] said they speak spanish however
[27:45] no employees spoke spanish and
[27:46] they gave him the loan
[27:49] documents all in english. Those
[27:52] are the kinds of scenarios this
[27:56] bill is attempting to. Address.
[27:59] I for one would never want a
[28:00] constituent of mine or family
[28:03] member to be taken advantage of
[28:04] when they were attempting. To
[28:09] deal with. Ordinary real life.
[28:11] Challenges as I tell ryan this
[28:14] call the dahle team. Most of us
[28:17] are one or two paychecks away
[28:18] from crises as a result of a
[28:21] health issue when the car
[28:22] breaks down or when the roof
[28:26] leaks. Everyone should have the
[28:29] opportunity to be able to keep
[28:31] their cars pay reasonable
[28:33] credit and be given the
[28:35] opportunity to truly in an
[28:37] honest sincere way build
[28:40] credit. To be able to take your
[28:40] their families and secure their
[28:43] futures. Lots of effort went

[32:56] under motions and resolutions
[32:56] if not we're gonna move back to
[33:02] simply third reading. Item next
[33:05] item up is item forty seven.
[33:06] Madam Protium you're prepared
[33:07] for that item Mister Clark
[33:12] please read. A some of the one
[33:13] eighty one by assembly member
[33:13] maienschein and act really to
[33:17] hazardous waste. Madam Protium.
[33:18] Thank you Mister President
[33:21] members are rise to present ab
[33:22] one eighty one on behalf of the
[33:24] assembly member maienschein.
[33:25] This bill reconciles a conflict
[33:27] between federal and state law
[33:28] by clarifying that military
[33:31] hazardous waste facilities are
[33:32] not required to pay advanced
[33:34] fees for permit applications to
[33:36] the california department of
[33:38] toxic. Substances control to be
[33:40] clear the military will still
[33:42] be required to pay all of the
[33:43] reasonable service charges
[33:45] associated with permit renewal
[33:47] and all other charges approved
[33:49] by specific appropriation or
[33:50] federal law. The bill is needed
[33:52] because a new legal conflict
[33:55] was brought about by a twenty
[33:56] sixteen trailer bill which
[33:58] created a new fee for service
[33:59] program requiring 25% of the
[34:02] cost to be paid up front. For
[34:03] hazardous waste facility
[34:05] permits the conflict is that
[34:07] federal law prohibits the
[34:08] military from engaging in
[34:10] advance payments. The military
[34:12] operates seven hazardous waste
[34:14] facilities throughout our state
[34:16] on a ten year permit timeline
[34:17] in support of the military's
[34:20] national security mission and
[34:21] to protect public health and
[34:23] safety. This bill is important
[34:25] because it specifically affects
[34:26] a naval base in my community
[34:28] where the permit is currently
[34:30] up for renewal. The hazardous
[34:32] waste facility on naval base
[34:33] coronado and city county treats
[34:36] and consolidates a variety of
[34:38] hazardous waste streams I would
[34:44] respectfully ask for your ibm.
[34:45] Any additional discussion or
[34:47] debate on this matter. Here in
[34:49] seen nine a Mister Secretary
[34:51] please call the roll allen. Hi

[35:55] eyes forty no zero the measure
[35:57] passes now moving on the file
[36:00] item forty eight center pro tem
[36:00] are you prepared for this I
[36:03] don't Miss Sector please read
[36:05] assembly bill twelve ninety by
[36:06] assemblymember gloria. And
[36:11] actually in water. Interactions
[36:13] thank you Mister President. Are
[36:14] pure water san diego is the
[36:15] city of san diego's
[36:17] groundbreaking water supply
[36:18] program designed to supply one
[36:19] third of the city's water
[36:21] supply. This critically
[36:23] important project has been tied
[36:25] up and wasteful litigation that
[36:26] threatens the completion of our
[36:28] pure water. Project at a time
[36:30] when climate change and cycles
[36:31] of drought imperil our water
[36:33] security. Since June the
[36:35] project has been stalled due to
[36:36] litigation claiming the project
[36:38] violates proposition eight
[36:39] which is a twenty twelve local
[36:41] ballot measure. That prevents
[36:43] the city from mandating project
[36:44] labor agreements on
[36:46] construction except when
[36:48] required by state or federal
[36:50] law. Ab twelve ninety clarifies
[36:52] that the project is one for
[36:53] which state law requires
[36:55] project labor agreements and
[36:56] without this clarification the
[36:58] costs are projected to increase
[36:59] by four million dollars for
[37:01] each month of delay. Without
[37:03] legal certainty state funds for
[37:05] the project of well over six
[37:07] hundred million dollars already
[37:10] invested would be in peril. Ab
[37:11] twelve ninety in the pure water
[37:13] project to ensure our water
[37:14] reliability for the san diego
[37:18] region for decades to come. I
[37:22] respectfully ask your aye vote.
[37:23] Thank you any discussion debate
[37:25] on this item. Center stone good
[37:28] morning mr President
[37:28] Congratulations colleagues on
[37:31] the last day. Thirteen more
[37:34] hours of session I respectfully
[37:38] rise in opposition to sb twelve
[37:40] ninety sponsored by the union
[37:42] caucus of the state legislature.
[37:43] This bill will force the city
[37:45] of san diego to join a union
[37:48] project labor agreement. In
[37:50] order to receive state funding
[37:52] for their peer water project
[37:54] water would be an advance
[37:55] treatment facility that can
[37:57] produce thirty million gallons
[38:00] of purified water every day.
[38:01] Fighting for a third of san
[38:02] diego's drinking water. Which I
[38:06] think is very innovative. We've
[38:07] talked a lot about clean water
[38:08] on the floor this year so I'm
[38:10] curious why are now talking
[38:11] about stopping clean water from
[38:13] being delivered to millions of
[38:14] people in our state second
[38:16] largest city. But let me give
[38:17] you a little background on this
[38:22] bill. The people spoke but
[38:27] proposition eight passed by 58%
[38:28] in two thousand twelve none of
[38:30] the city's project opposed
[38:31] appeal a requirement but I
[38:34] guess the big lead labor union
[38:35] bosses didn't like what the
[38:37] people decide again the people
[38:40] aren't being listened to and
[38:41] say to california and frankly I
[38:41] think her get a little bit
[38:44] upset. So in November of two
[38:45] thousand eighteen the city of
[38:46] san diego in the big labor
[38:47] union bosses passed an
[38:49] ordinance that kept. Non union
[38:51] apprenticeships. And
[38:53] apprentices from working on
[38:54] three of the pure water
[38:57] projects. If big labor bosses
[38:59] couldn't convince the voters. I
[39:01] guess they figure they can
[39:02] intimidate the elected
[39:03] officials to give them their
[39:06] nguyen. But about a year later
[39:07] a lawsuit was filed against the
[39:09] big labor union bosses. The
[39:12] court ruled the city was wrong.
[39:13] and the forcing only union
[39:17] apprentices to be used violated
[39:17] the people's intent of
[39:21] proposition a-after that
[39:21] ruling legal knows of
[39:24] negotiations began. And they're
[39:25] still going on which brings me
[39:28] here today. Ab twelve mind use
[39:31] goal is to resolve a city legal
[39:38] dispute over. As they control
[39:40] this legislature this measures
[39:42] intent is to violate local
[39:44] control and the will of the
[39:46] voters in the name of big labor
[39:50] union bosses. How many bills
[39:51] are we going to see this year
[39:54] where the union caucus. Is more
[39:56] important to the voting members
[39:57] of this body than the citizens
[40:00] of the state of california. Ab
[40:02] told mine is nothing more than
[40:04] another agenda item for this
[40:07] legislature's famed unit caucus.
[40:07] Big labor's l
[40:09] big labor loss
[40:10] in san diego when they lost
[40:12] proposition eight. This bill is
[40:13] nothing more than a way for big
[40:16] labor bosses to go. To their
[40:18] friends on the legislature to
[40:20] change the rules after the fact
[40:22] to support. The will. Of the
[40:25] voters in san diego my friend
[40:28] you can honestly say that this
[40:30] is the will of the vote voters.
[40:32] And in some cases on issues
[40:33] you're agree with them. And
[40:35] some you just eggs nor there
[40:37] will. In another issues you
[40:39] just disagree with them on
[40:41] those issues the will of the
[40:43] people is just that you can
[40:45] pick and choose which issues
[40:46] you think the people got right
[40:47] and which ones you think they
[40:48] got wrong. If you're really a
[40:51] believer in local control. If
[40:52] you're really a believer that
[40:54] the citizens of the state
[40:56] really control this state you
[40:58] should vote no on this bill. If
[41:01] it passes it shows that this
[41:02] body cares more about taking
[41:04] care of the unions and their
[41:05] bosses than listening to the
[41:08] will of the people. In honor of
[41:09] the forty million people that
[41:09] -
[41:10] depend on us to make good
[41:13] decisions for them. And not for
[41:14] the unions I urge a no vote in
[41:17] ab twelve ninety. Thank you
[41:18] senator morlock. Thank you
[41:20] Mister President tie rise in
[41:21] opposition to a. B. Twelve
[41:24] ninety. Colleagues project
[41:26] labor agreements do not have a
[41:29] successful track record I will
[41:30] spareou the details but I can
[41:32] give you plenty. From the city.
[41:34] And county of san diego. Are
[41:39] currently. Some 10% of building
[41:41] contractors in san diego our
[41:46] union shops. Why shut out 90%
[41:49] of this industry. Especially as
[41:50] the good senator from temecula
[41:52] pointed out when san diego
[41:54] voters recently voted against
[41:56] requiring pla's unless forced
[41:59] to. The court upheld this
[42:02] ballot measure just last month.
[42:05] So if you fail at the ballot.
[42:08] And if you fail at the bench.
[42:10] You come to the banks of the
[42:14] sacramento river. And ask the
[42:17] legislature to do an end run.
[42:19] That my colleagues is classic
[42:23] special interest groups. Taking
[42:25] advantage of this body to do an
[42:30] end run we should be poor. And
[42:31] we should be independent and I
[42:33] respectfully request a no vote
[42:35] on a. B. Twelve ninety thank
[42:36] you Mister President thank you
[42:40] senator mitchell. Thank you
[42:41] very much Mister President I
[42:42] rise in support of ab two
[42:45] twelve ninety. But just wanted
[42:47] to acknowledge that I believe
[42:48] it was just yesterday our
[42:50] colleague from to macula during
[42:55] the debate on the-student
[42:55] built talked about. How he
[42:56] enjoyed the dip the debate and
[42:56] he wishes we'd had more of that
[42:59] kind of debate. And yet it's my
[43:00] very same college from to
[43:02] medical whose and gave the name
[43:04] calling at eleven thirte am
[43:06] the first hour of our session.
[43:07] Well I would hope that in the
[43:08] next thirteen hours that we can
[43:11] all. Of shy away from language
[43:13] thatgenerally lacks civility
[43:14] and engaging hearty debate on
[43:16] the policy issues that. Affect
[43:17] the forty million california
[43:21] residents with that I stand in
[43:22] support of ab twelve ninety.
[43:24] Thurstone thank you Mister
[43:25] President you know I've been
[43:27] kind of came in my comments on
[43:29] the floor over the past year
[43:31] but I bring up what I consider
[43:34] to be a proper description of a
[43:37] union caucus but I'm gonna tell
[43:37] you one thing that I strongly
[43:40] resent on this floor I strongly
[43:41] resent by two or three members
[43:42] -
[43:45] of this legislature lecturing
[43:45] to me like I'm one of their
[43:47] kids. You don't. I got a lot
[43:48] lectures when I was
[43:50] universities I got a few
[43:52] lectures from a jewish mom. But
[43:53] I don't need anybody on the
[43:54] floor the senate to lecture to
[43:57] me. About how I should defend
[43:58] the citizens of the state of
[43:59] california especially those of
[44:01] my district. And so I will
[44:05] continue. To advocate I have
[44:08] always displayed I think common
[44:11] courtesy to people on this
[44:13] floor I don't engage importer
[44:15] attack in order although I've
[44:17] been called a racist the
[44:18] following order order we run
[44:19] out for the one on the road%
[44:21] more and I'm just going to put
[44:22] up with it anymore Mister
[44:24] President. And further reasoner
[44:26] stone I'm calling you to order
[44:28] we're gonna yes seize with this
[44:29] right now that I just want you
[44:31] know Mister President that I'm
[44:32] not going to tolerate being
[44:33] lectured to anymore I had will
[44:36] be center stone we-heard loud
[44:37] and clear I'm not going to let
[44:42] the institution. Stone when I
[44:45] see President A quorum. We're
[44:46] asking all members to it here
[44:47] too a bit of stability into
[44:49] corn today this is our last day
[44:51] of session so. Yes Mister
[44:52] President or to bring public in
[44:57] caucus please thank you.
[44:59] Members were asking you to take
[45:01] your seats were asking you go
[45:03] back to your desk and sit down.
[45:09] Members. Members republican
[45:25] caucus in the box lounge
[49:11] . In a
[49:15] row for what purpose. As a
[49:15] republican leader point of
[49:18] personal privilege. Rendon you
[49:22] May proceed. The decorum in
[49:24] this house gets thrown out of
[49:26] whack by mainly one group one
[49:28] person. And my colleagues are
[49:32] done. And I'm here to tell you
[49:34] that decency and respect goes
[49:38] both ways. And when they have
[49:41] points on a bill that are valid
[49:43] and that are not out of order
[49:45] for you to bully them into a
[49:48] place of with your role lean
[49:51] eyes your smirks smiles. Your
[49:55] hostile looks to my members it
[49:57] is an acceptable for you to
[49:58] come on this side of the floor
[50:01] and come over to the desk of
[50:02] one of my members when the
[50:04] chair or the President. Is
[50:06] calling the house back to order
[50:08] is an acceptable and I'm asking
[50:12] you personally to refrain from
[50:14] your contact center grow were
[50:18] asking everyone to. The column
[50:18] today so let's not single out
[50:21] any in. Why with all due
[50:22] respect Mister President I
[50:23] think it's just one individual
[50:25] who is causing that conflict on
[50:28] the floor with no. No calling
[50:29] out individual members senator
[50:31] grow didn't name a person did
[50:33] the same thing that she does to
[50:34] us when she looks across the
[50:37] floor senator grow work we're
[50:39] gonna shoot to refrain from the
[50:41] house okay. Again I would just
[50:42] like to call the quorum in this
[50:44] house and I would like the
[50:49] bulleen to stop. Thank you.
[50:54] Membership. Hello back on the
[50:57] bill. If my colleagues would
[51:03] allow. Ab twelve ninety and the-
[51:08] I appreciate. I appreciate the
[51:11] conversation and discussion I
[51:11] can I can make points I would.
[51:16] I would. Point of privilege
[51:18] before I go into the language
[51:22] or the bill. I have the
[51:24] greatest of respect for every
[51:27] individual in this chamber. We
[51:29] have political and
[51:31] philosophical agreements and
[51:32] disagreements we always will
[51:35] have. Where in the last day of
[51:35] session. I will ask each
[51:39] colleagues. To remember it's
[51:40] going to be a long and tough
[51:43] enough day as it is. And I you
[51:45] know we can take these
[51:46] conversations and to our
[51:49] various cacuses as need be.
[51:52] And I expect we will. But I
[51:54] would just ask for us to move
[51:55] along and let's get some work
[51:58] done and after I do this really
[51:59] important piece of legislation
[52:01] to my county. I am happy to
[52:03] engage in conversation off the
[52:05] floor with any individual that
[52:07] would like to come talk to me.
[52:08] Mister President can I continue
[52:10] with ab twelve night she May.
[52:13] continue thank you the points
[52:15] are that were made and I do
[52:18] know that this issue. Are
[52:20] related to how projects get
[52:21] done in project labor
[52:24] agreements and-how local
[52:26] projects get done will always
[52:29] be a matter of contention. On
[52:30] this project I want to make a
[52:33] couple of points. The san diego
[52:35] county water authority is in
[52:38] support and ask my assembly
[52:40] member to bring this piece of
[52:43] legislation forward. For a very.
[52:47] Very simple reason. Bob for the
[52:49] water authority which is made
[52:50] up of representatives from the
[52:53] cities. In the county of san
[52:54] diego eighteen cities in the
[52:57] county of san diego.
[52:57] Participate are part of this
[53:00] water authority. They have
[53:01] engaged on this pure water
[53:03] project to help san diego
[53:05] become more water reliable and
[53:08] self sustaining. We are the end
[53:10] of the pipeline this project is
[53:12] critically important to us in
[53:15] terms of frankly not just for
[53:16] the county and of san diego in
[53:17] the region but to the state of
[53:19] california the more. Self
[53:21] reliant we are and we've done
[53:23] incredible work in san diego my
[53:24] colleagues on both sides of the
[53:26] aisle know that our delegation
[53:28] knows how much work san diego
[53:31] has done on conservation
[53:34] certainly on storage. By on
[53:38] pure water on desalination we
[53:40] have been very creative. This
[53:42] project is important. The
[53:44] resources to get this project
[53:47] done more than six hundred
[53:48] million dollars have come from
[53:49] the state of california. The
[53:52] state of california. Basically
[53:53] in yes were responsible for
[53:55] that I will own it basically
[53:58] says that you have to be
[53:59] willing to do project labor
[54:02] agreements. We stand to lose
[54:04] the six hundred million dollars
[54:06] that we work so hard to get as
[54:09] part of this project. And so we
[54:12] can make it about are all kinds
[54:15] of issues. Today I simply stand
[54:17] here to tell you that we have a
[54:18] project that is critically
[54:20] important to our county and
[54:22] their certainly seems to be
[54:24] some discussion over the
[54:26] language in our local
[54:30] proposition. Proposition a from
[54:31] twenty twelve if you look at
[54:33] the analysis it says there is
[54:36] nothing in measure a to impede
[54:38] the provisions of this bill we
[54:40] are simply trying to get our
[54:43] project done. So for my
[54:44] colleagues who want to look at
[54:46] it multiple ways you will
[54:47] continue to do that
[54:49] philosophically what do support
[54:50] project labor agreements or
[54:53] not. I would also say I'm
[54:55] pretty sure that there're are
[54:56] projects that have gone well
[54:58] and not well but-you know
[55:00] examples of successful pla's
[55:02] include the hoover dam disney
[55:04] world. Our new state buildings
[55:06] currently under construction at
[55:08] twelfth and new courthouse
[55:09] construction throughout the
[55:11] state in one of our major
[55:12] projects in san diego county
[55:15] was under and to my colleague
[55:17] from from the south bay in san
[55:19] diego county. Remember as well
[55:21] that we did a very successful
[55:24] first time ever pl a project
[55:26] through the water authority and
[55:27] we saved money and the project
[55:30] was done. By early not on time
[55:32] but early so we can debate
[55:33] those things we have examples
[55:36] of good projects. That have
[55:38] gotten done but today what I
[55:39] would ask is that you support
[55:41] my local community because we
[55:43] are trying to get are pure
[55:44] water project done which is
[55:45] going to help our county be
[55:48] more. Water sustainable self
[55:50] sustainable and that's what
[55:52] this measures about today so to
[55:54] give the clarity so that we can
[55:56] keep the resources and not
[55:57] increase the cost of this
[56:01] project I would ask for your
[56:02] aye vote in support. Of my
[56:07] local. Community in san diego
[56:08] to get this project done. Thank
[56:09] you all debate and discussion
[56:11] haven't sees to Mister Sector
[56:12] island mr to center jones.
[56:14] Sorry mr President Has a bit
[56:14] late getting my microphone up I
[56:16] do want to rise in. Opposition
[56:18] to ab twelve ninety as I've
[56:21] shared on this for many time.
[56:22] You know I come from a union
[56:24] family and I try to support
[56:25] local union products in efforts
[56:27] when I can. And when the price
[56:30] in the quality is competitive.
[56:31] The problem with ab twelve
[56:33] ninety is that it seeks to
[56:34] force the project labor
[56:35] agreement where one is not
[56:38] needed or appropriate. Voters
[56:39] in san diego have already made
[56:41] the decision that p. L. A.'s.
[56:43] Shall not be required improper
[56:45] on public projects okay unions
[56:47] shall not be senate district.
[56:49] Unions shall not be
[56:51] discriminated against. Nor
[56:52] shall they be granted
[56:54] favoritism. I can live with
[56:56] that decision by the voters and
[56:58] I'm mystified why this keeps
[57:00] coming up and the major is so
[57:01] against following the will of
[57:08] the voters. The pure. Increases
[57:10] water reliability and security
[57:13] for years to come. Frivolous
[57:15] legislation such as ab twelve
[57:16] ninety will only increase
[57:18] litigation which will continue
[57:20] to delay the water the pure
[57:23] water project I sincerely
[57:24] urging no vote on a. B. Twelve
[57:28] ninety thank you. Now this is
[57:29] there any further discussion
[57:31] debate on this item. If not
[57:33] Madam Protium you can close
[57:35] once again I will close one
[57:37] more time by saying. The
[57:40] resources in the additional
[57:42] four million on a monthly basis
[57:43] in the six hundred million
[57:44] dollars that the county water
[57:46] authority has gotten. If we
[57:51] don't successfully deal with
[57:51] this issue this costs will be
[57:51] passed on to our rate payers.
[57:54] And I will tell you that is not
[57:56] something that I would like to
[57:58] see happen in my county were
[58:00] were cost we already are paying
[58:03] costs to support. The self
[58:06] storage conservation programs
[58:09] this pure water program there's
[58:11] a lot riding on this and I
[58:14] would justsay. I really urge
[58:15] your support on something and
[58:17] that will save taxpayers
[58:19] dollars and at the same time
[58:21] honor our commitment. To
[58:24] provide reliable water in san
[58:25] diego county I ask for your aye
[58:30] those. Gosh in a debate I've

[59:50] walker you prepare to take up
[59:53] that item. Yes mr secretary
[1:00:00] please read. Assembly
[1:00:01] constitutional amendment
[1:00:02] fourteen by assembly member
[1:00:03] gonzalez an act relating to the
[1:00:06] university of california.
[1:00:08] Senator work. Thank you Mister
[1:00:10] President and members on behalf
[1:00:11] of assembly woman liberated
[1:00:14] gonzalez fletcher I am proud to
[1:00:15] introduce a ca fourteen as a
[1:00:17] resolution tplace university
[1:00:20] of california equal employment
[1:00:20] opportunity standards on the
[1:00:23] ballot. Each of you will be
[1:00:26] sure vote on your own criteria.
[1:00:26] For some of you the issue is
[1:00:29] equity. The state auditor
[1:00:31] reported to us in two thousand
[1:00:33] and seventeen that outsourced
[1:00:36] service workers women and men
[1:00:37] who clean the toilets cut the
[1:00:40] grass. Cook the food an empty
[1:00:43] the bed pans earn on average
[1:00:44] three dollars and eighty six
[1:00:47] cents less per hour then you
[1:00:48] see employees who do the exact
[1:00:51] same work. The state auditor
[1:00:54] found that most of the seven
[1:00:54] thousand to nine thousand out
[1:00:56] source service workers do not
[1:00:57] have access to affordable
[1:00:59] health insurance. And he's
[1:01:01] californians are overwhelmingly
[1:01:02] in the grants in african
[1:01:05] americans. Others if you want
[1:01:07] to make sure that this is an
[1:01:07] issue worthy of a
[1:01:09] constitutional amendment. I
[1:01:11] will remind you that the last
[1:01:13] constitutional minute we put on
[1:01:15] the ballot. Was sca nine he
[1:01:16] went to the ballot with
[1:01:20] unanimous vote. Of this and
[1:01:21] prep practically every every
[1:01:24] senator on this floor. Past
[1:01:25] said it was approved by the
[1:01:27] voters that amended allowed
[1:01:28] homeowners to install rain
[1:01:30] water capture systems in their
[1:01:31] homes without having those
[1:01:34] systems add o increase
[1:01:34] property tax assessment.
[1:01:37] Valuations well there hasn't
[1:01:40] been a single home there has
[1:01:41] been many homeowners who've
[1:01:44] taken advantage this property
[1:01:44] did tax break today we hope
[1:01:47] there will be. Others of you
[1:01:48] might be concerned about ham
[1:01:49] stringing you see medical
[1:01:51] centers and denying them
[1:01:52] necessary flexibility to meet
[1:01:55] fluctuations in patient counts
[1:01:57] other temporary staffing needs.
[1:01:59] I want to direct you to your
[1:02:00] attention to page five of the
[1:02:03] aca we actually amended into
[1:02:05] the measure uc's own per diem
[1:02:07] employee policy to allow that
[1:02:10] flexibility. And the senator
[1:02:11] from santa ana added an
[1:02:13] amendment to further guarantee
[1:02:13] flexibility for you see medical
[1:02:18] centers. In addition to equity
[1:02:19] another concern that I
[1:02:24] personally had was cost. An
[1:02:26] analysis was conducted by mike
[1:02:27] gymnast who many you know was
[1:02:31] that the director of finance
[1:02:32] for our last republican
[1:02:35] governor arnold schwarzenegger.
[1:02:37] In his analysis was clear that
[1:02:40] he ca fourteen meets the
[1:02:41] standards of republican fiscal
[1:02:43] prudence. The increased cost of
[1:02:45] wishing benefit parity for the
[1:02:47] service workers is completely
[1:02:49] offset by the savings in
[1:02:50] overhead and still leaves
[1:02:53] according to my chen s. Thirty
[1:02:55] eight million dollars for any
[1:02:56] overhead or administrative
[1:02:59] costs you see might incur.
[1:03:00] allow me to read the last
[1:03:03] sentence of his analysis quote
[1:03:04] we conclude that you see can
[1:03:06] absorb the cost to be ca
[1:03:07] fourteen within the amounts
[1:03:09] currently budgeted for the
[1:03:11] existing contracts in quote.
[1:03:14] Senators the work has been done
[1:03:17] this case is clear and clean
[1:03:18] and if we have the powers of
[1:03:21] body to adopt a ca fourteen. I
[1:03:23] am confident we would. But that
[1:03:25] power is reserved to the voters
[1:03:27] so let's give the people who
[1:03:31] elect us the chance to adopt
[1:03:31] the equal employment
[1:03:35] opportunity standard act.
[1:03:37] Without a respectfully ask for
[1:03:37] an aye vote thank you Madam
[1:03:39] Project. Thank you Mister
[1:03:40] President colleagues I rise
[1:03:42] today in strong support of a ca
[1:03:45] fourteen. Some May wonder why
[1:03:46] the legislature's taken up the
[1:03:48] issue and I think the answer to
[1:03:51] that is simple we must. We must
[1:03:53] because the state constitution
[1:03:54] gives the uc regents power over
[1:03:57] the university of california.
[1:03:58] And it is the only way to
[1:04:00] address an issue plaguing the
[1:04:03] system. I and that is through a
[1:04:06] constitutional amendment. We
[1:04:07] must because working people
[1:04:09] employed in our renowned
[1:04:10] university system are getting
[1:04:12] cut out of jobs. They're
[1:04:13] getting cut out of the middl
[1:04:16] class. Higher education is the
[1:04:18] backbone of our middle class
[1:04:19] and the university of
[1:04:21] california is the crown jewel
[1:04:24] of our higher education system.
[1:04:25] But the uc undermines its
[1:04:27] benefits to the middle class by
[1:04:29] failing to provide stable a
[1:04:31] stable lifestyle for the
[1:04:35] workers that the uc depends on.
[1:04:37] Over the last four years the uc
[1:04:39] has contracted out thousands of
[1:04:41] support services jobs for the
[1:04:43] university it's an economic
[1:04:45] decision seemingly made without
[1:04:46] consideration of how these
[1:04:48] choices made by the uc affect
[1:04:51] the lives of their workers.
[1:04:53] Each time the uc makes this
[1:04:55] choice eliminates the stability
[1:04:56] of a job that has health
[1:04:57] benefits and aecure
[1:04:59] retirement. The legislature has
[1:05:02] tried to address this issue in
[1:05:04] recent years with multiple
[1:05:07] bills an audience unfortunately
[1:05:08] none of this has led to the
[1:05:10] university change let the
[1:05:11] university to change its
[1:05:12] behavior despite the clear
[1:05:14] intent. And message sent by the
[1:05:17] legislature. This is been an
[1:05:19] issue for decades. The uc has
[1:05:21] been contracting out and
[1:05:23] attempting to circumvent its
[1:05:23] own workers for more than
[1:05:27] thirty years. Back in nineteen
[1:05:27] eighty three ucla harden
[1:05:29] outside custodial form to
[1:05:31] service a gymnastics
[1:05:33] championship. And threaten to
[1:05:35] use contract estonians for the
[1:05:37] nineteen eighty four olympics.
[1:05:39] The hiring choices made in the
[1:05:40] eighties were a short sighted
[1:05:42] then as they are today. Farming
[1:05:45] out low wage jobs resulted
[1:05:46] workers being forced to live on
[1:05:48] the friends and having to rely
[1:05:49] on government subsidies and
[1:05:51] health care. Choosing to
[1:05:53] provide stable jobs on the
[1:05:54] front in insures that people
[1:05:56] can provide for their families
[1:05:57] and have access to health
[1:05:59] benefits retirement every uc
[1:06:01] employees should have that
[1:06:03] stability. They should be able
[1:06:03] to raise their children to
[1:06:05] flourish and hopefully one day
[1:06:06] in role at one of our great
[1:06:08] universities that is the
[1:06:10] california dream that builds a
[1:06:12] stronger middle class. We're
[1:06:14] talking about nursing
[1:06:16] assistants cooks custodian
[1:06:17] sterile processing technicians
[1:06:20] grounds keepers. These are the
[1:06:21] workers doing the dirty tough
[1:06:23] jobs the workers whose efforts
[1:06:25] might not be top of the mind
[1:06:26] when you think of you see arts
[1:06:28] medical centers. But their
[1:06:29] internal to the success of our
[1:06:32] university system. The average
[1:06:33] support service worker you see
[1:06:36] is paid on average as I said
[1:06:37] thirty eight thousand dollars
[1:06:40] per year. Which is ironically
[1:06:43] the average take home pay. For
[1:06:43] the uc senior executives per
[1:06:48] month. Will a ca hinder the
[1:06:49] uc's ability to run their
[1:06:52] medical centers I think the
[1:06:55] manager of the bill responded
[1:06:56] to that issue so I don't need
[1:07:00] to go further into that. The
[1:07:01] aca fourteen makes provisions
[1:07:04] for those situations.
[1:07:07] Contracting out has its place.
[1:07:10] And this measure continues to
[1:07:11] allow for per diem employees as
[1:07:14] also was mentioned so I think
[1:07:18] the university of california.
[1:07:19] Should see what change needs to
[1:07:23] happen now. It is a phenomenal
[1:07:24] institution that we're all
[1:07:27] proud to champion aca fourteen
[1:07:28] interests that are private also
[1:07:30] can extend to the uc's
[1:07:32] practices as an employer.
[1:07:34] Colleagues we passed a law this
[1:07:36] week that holds corporations to
[1:07:38] a higher standard and disallows
[1:07:39] classifying employees as
[1:07:41] contractors in order to skirt
[1:07:44] fair wages and benefits. We
[1:07:45] should hold the university of
[1:07:46] california to the similar high
[1:07:52] standards. In the end a ca
[1:07:53] fourteen simply allows for the
[1:07:55] voters of california to decide
[1:07:57] what is best for the uc and its
[1:07:59] workers and their families. On
[1:08:02] a more personal note you know I
[1:08:03] know it seems like I've already
[1:08:05] talked a lot this morning. But
[1:08:07] in fact I've managed only three
[1:08:09] bills all district related
[1:08:13] bills only three. And one major
[1:08:15] bill the tenet protections bill
[1:08:18] I am speaking on this one
[1:08:19] because I believe it is
[1:08:20] critically important if we're
[1:08:22] going to take the actions that
[1:08:24] we take here to support workers
[1:08:27] I don't see how we cannot take
[1:08:29] this action today and at least.
[1:08:31] Give the voters of california
[1:08:33] the opportunity to weigh in on
[1:08:36] this issue they have that right
[1:08:37] I would ask for your aye vote
[1:08:39] on a ca fourteen. This is an
[1:08:41] incredibly important measure.
[1:08:46] You center our gelato. Thank
[1:08:49] you thank yomister President.
[1:08:52] I rise today is proud co author.
[1:08:56] Ac a fourteen great leaders in
[1:08:58] our nation are for services
[1:09:00] have always made sure that our
[1:09:01] soldiers holding the lowest
[1:09:04] ranks are being taken of taking
[1:09:06] care of each and every day we
[1:09:09] say that again great leaders in
[1:09:11] our nation's armed services
[1:09:13] have always made sure that our
[1:09:15] soldiers holding the lowest
[1:09:17] ranks have always been taken
[1:09:21] care of first. Leadership that
[1:09:22] is being taught in our military
[1:09:24] institutions emphasized that an
[1:09:25] officer someone and leadership
[1:09:27] position must always take care
[1:09:29] of his subordinates first and
[1:09:31] foremost the government we lead
[1:09:34] it should do the same sadly our
[1:09:36] university of california at
[1:09:40] deviated from these core values.
[1:09:41] Even if you're cooking cleaning
[1:09:42] cutting the grass you're
[1:09:45] working for the uc system you
[1:09:48] should be paid as a uc employee.
[1:09:49] terry runs on the principle of
[1:09:50] equality and merit and so
[1:09:52] should our university of
[1:09:54] california system this is why I
[1:09:57] urge an aye vote. Thank you
[1:09:57] Mister President you senator
[1:10:00] morlock. Thank you Mister
[1:10:05] President. I rise in opposition
[1:10:08] to a ca fourteen. It's sort of
[1:10:08] comes into that who's your
[1:10:12] daddy. Category is it gonna be
[1:10:13] management or is it going to be
[1:10:17] labor. Colleagues the uc system
[1:10:19] had an unrestricted net deficit
[1:10:20] the last two years of nineteen
[1:10:27] billion dollars. This is due to
[1:10:28] grting great benefits to its
[1:10:34] workforce. Mainly the an. Paid
[1:10:37] retiree medical liabilities. So
[1:10:39] the uc system is facing fiscal
[1:10:44] stress. Taking cost saving
[1:10:49] outsourcing off the table. Will.
[1:10:50] At the end result in increased
[1:10:53] tuition. The moneyhas to come
[1:10:57] from somewhere. No wonder the
[1:11:00] uc system itself opposes ac
[1:11:02] eight fourteen. The border
[1:11:05] regions will point to this
[1:11:07] legislature and the voters
[1:11:09] should the proposition succeed
[1:11:11] when it announces its next
[1:11:13] tuition increase. And they will
[1:11:15] have the right to do so.
[1:11:19] Consequently. I believe the
[1:11:19] voters will oppose the ballot
[1:11:22] measure. But we should save
[1:11:24] them the frustration of telling
[1:11:24] sacramento to let managers
[1:11:28] manage. I respectfully urge a
[1:11:31] no vote on a ca fourteen thank
[1:11:31] you Mister President thank you
[1:11:34] center white house. Mister
[1:11:36] President yesterday during the
[1:11:39] prayer our own system michelle
[1:11:41] gorman quoted from alice walker
[1:11:44] in you May recall it was wake
[1:11:46] up the world has changed. You
[1:11:48] know we cannot in good
[1:11:49] conscience tell private
[1:11:51] industry to treat their
[1:11:53] employers their employees as
[1:11:54] employees and not independent
[1:11:56] contractors while tolerating
[1:11:58] the same behavior within our
[1:12:00] own university of california
[1:12:02] system. The fact that you see
[1:12:04] itself estimates that this
[1:12:06] constitutional amendment would
[1:12:09] force them to increase wages
[1:12:10] and benefit levels by at least
[1:12:13] 25% the that means that they're
[1:12:14] under compensating hundreds of
[1:12:16] contract workers for twenty
[1:12:18] five percent. We need to combat
[1:12:22] combat this down rules pressure
[1:12:24] on wages in our own house I'm
[1:12:27] also co author energy nay vote.
[1:12:35] Thank you senator glazers.
[1:12:37] Thank you a Mister President to
[1:12:41] and members I know that the
[1:12:42] sponsors of this measure in the
[1:12:45] supporters come at this issue
[1:12:46] with it with a good heart they
[1:12:48] care about are working people
[1:12:51] at the university and elsewhere
[1:12:53] they want them to have a decent
[1:12:55] level of pay and benefits and I
[1:12:56] know that that's something that
[1:12:59] I certainly share on I believe
[1:13:00] everybody on the floor shares.
[1:13:03] But this measure is a is a
[1:13:06] drastic one. And if I could I'm
[1:13:08] gonna reference the analysis
[1:13:09] that's been provided each
[1:13:14] member. On this. It's a this
[1:13:20] one second. It says this that
[1:13:20] it provides the region's for
[1:13:24] the ca. May contract for
[1:13:25] labor to perform support
[1:13:29] services only if authorized to
[1:13:30] do so by statute and only for
[1:13:33] limited exceptions include
[1:13:35] among other things a bonafide
[1:13:38] emergency circumstance. So to
[1:13:40] change from of the provisions
[1:13:41] in this measure requires that
[1:13:43] they have limited exceptions
[1:13:44] and they have to do so by
[1:13:47] statute and do so by statute
[1:13:48] means that we actually have to
[1:13:50] pass a law to allow. That
[1:13:53] contracting out provisions. So
[1:13:55] from my point of view. The
[1:13:56] measure before us is a complete
[1:13:58] ban on contracting out for a
[1:13:59] wide range of services at the
[1:14:00] university of california
[1:14:03] campuses. And their hospitals
[1:14:05] no matter how short term. An
[1:14:05] expected or necessary they May
[1:14:10] be. And as I said the only.
[1:14:11] Significant section to that is
[1:14:13] if they got statutory approval
[1:14:14] that means they would be
[1:14:17] legislation first to allow at
[1:14:18] the hiring of short term
[1:14:20] emergency hospital workers.
[1:14:21] Like staffing up to respond to
[1:14:24] a natural disaster can you
[1:14:25] imagine them coming in asking
[1:14:27] for a law. Do with that. It
[1:14:29] requires the legislation to
[1:14:32] train you see employees. On
[1:14:32] safety improperly use special
[1:14:38] equipment. It would require law.
[1:14:39] For and to anticipated special
[1:14:41] events I even when the
[1:14:43] university has less than thirty
[1:14:44] days to plan for it such as
[1:14:46] speakers I campus require an
[1:14:48] extra security and clean up.
[1:14:52] And even requires legislation
[1:14:53] for staff for some student
[1:14:55] housing developments. The taken
[1:14:57] away that flexibility on
[1:14:58] clinical care staffing
[1:15:00] decisions. From my point of
[1:15:02] view is going to create impact
[1:15:03] on vulnerable patients and by
[1:15:05] the way 60% of. You see
[1:15:07] patients are medi cal for
[1:15:12] medicare. Supported now this
[1:15:13] would only apply to university
[1:15:15] of california not to any other
[1:15:16] hospital or institution in
[1:15:18] california. You see would have
[1:15:20] to hire full time employees for
[1:15:21] work he needs done only
[1:15:25] occasionally. Turn of late you
[1:15:26] see would have to decrease the
[1:15:26] services it provides the
[1:15:27] students. Patients and the
[1:15:31] public. And think about this
[1:15:33] you see with a with a should I
[1:15:34] don't think they should be
[1:15:37] forced. The hire workers for
[1:15:38] things that they need done a
[1:15:39] few times a year can you
[1:15:41] imagine if your house you edit
[1:15:43] cut a tree down. Do you have
[1:15:45] the equipment to do that no you
[1:15:46] have to hire somebody if you're
[1:15:50] a business and in you're not in
[1:15:50] the air conditioning business
[1:15:52] but year conditions goes goes
[1:15:53] down. Imagine having air
[1:15:55] conditioning repair people on
[1:15:59] on your staff all the time for
[1:15:59] things that aren't even that
[1:16:01] central core of your business.
[1:16:02] So there are requirements in
[1:16:04] here that. Really aren't a
[1:16:05] fission and read significantly
[1:16:08] raise costs. Thank you see and
[1:16:10] its workers can bargain and
[1:16:11] they do we they have collective
[1:16:13] bargaining and they and they
[1:16:14] have shown they have the
[1:16:16] ability to close contracts you
[1:16:17] see in its unions of
[1:16:19] successfully close contracts.
[1:16:22] With all the other unions. And
[1:16:24] keep in mind. If the criticism
[1:16:26] is somehow this contracting out
[1:16:28] has led to a significant
[1:16:30] decrease in you see employment
[1:16:30] it's just the opposite that we
[1:16:33] see. Union employment at the
[1:16:35] university california's been
[1:16:36] going up for many many years
[1:16:40] not the opposite. Members we
[1:16:43] have new members in leadership
[1:16:43] at the board of regents I know
[1:16:48] you know many of them. And they
[1:16:48] have indicated to me that they
[1:16:55] are committed. To creating a
[1:16:59] fair contracting practice. And
[1:17:02] I trusted that leadership that
[1:17:03] the chair of the board of
[1:17:04] regents is john for as a former
[1:17:06] union leader and he has made it
[1:17:09] clear that he wants the
[1:17:09] university of california to
[1:17:13] have the best contracting out
[1:17:16] provisions standards of any
[1:17:19] public institution in the
[1:17:19] country and I think he should
[1:17:20] be given that opportunity to
[1:17:23] try. But a constitutional men
[1:17:27] now. Could pass and it would be
[1:17:27] permanent. Hi does set a
[1:17:29] precedent. And it does create
[1:17:31] the opportunity for many other
[1:17:32] problems that we have
[1:17:34] occasionally. With that
[1:17:36] institution that somehow be now
[1:17:36] subject to. Another
[1:17:39] constitutional change could
[1:17:40] happen every year could happen
[1:17:42] every session. I think that we
[1:17:43] should give the university an
[1:17:45] opportunity to try to work
[1:17:48] these issues out this this.
[1:17:48] This constitutional ma'am it
[1:17:51] doesn't have to be passed today
[1:17:52] we could take this matter up in
[1:17:53] January and have the same
[1:17:55] result to the benefit that they
[1:17:57] desire putting this measure on
[1:17:58] the November ballot. So in
[1:18:00] summary. We have collective
[1:18:02] bargaining at the university
[1:18:04] california hard fought. We
[1:18:06] should allow that. Process to.
[1:18:08] Resolve a lot of these issues
[1:18:10] including this one. Number two
[1:18:11] you see does have a degree of
[1:18:13] it aye tanami. But the board
[1:18:14] chair is made as kim is a clear
[1:18:15] his commitment to have high
[1:18:17] standards for contracting out
[1:18:20] he should be given that chance.
[1:18:20] And not addressing this bill
[1:18:22] today doesn't. Stop the
[1:18:24] conversation doesn't prevent
[1:18:25] the results that this measure
[1:18:26] desires which is a ballot
[1:18:31] measure next of amber. And
[1:18:31] because of those reasons I
[1:18:32] think we should vote no on this
[1:18:34] measure today. Thank you
[1:18:38] senator galgiani. Thank you
[1:18:39] Mister Chair members I rise in
[1:18:41] support of this bill I was
[1:18:43] around in the assembly when we
[1:18:44] went through the budget crisis
[1:18:46] in the uc system put employees
[1:18:48] on furlough they increase
[1:18:51] contracting out and they
[1:18:52] reduced pay and they raised
[1:18:55] tuition for students and within
[1:18:58] a year. It was learned that
[1:19:01] secretly they had given bonuses
[1:19:02] to the tune of about three
[1:19:04] point one million or they were
[1:19:06] planningo four thirty eight
[1:19:09] pop executive employees and
[1:19:11] they were doing that after
[1:19:14] having made raises to tuition
[1:19:16] and for low's to employees that
[1:19:19] was a blatant disregard and
[1:19:20] disrespect for the employees
[1:19:22] and in my view of the
[1:19:25] legislature as well because we
[1:19:27] agreed to the terms at that
[1:19:29] time. Because of the fact that
[1:19:30] the we were in our where we
[1:19:33] were withhe economynk
[1:19:37] this bill is necessary I trust
[1:19:38] are former speaker who is now
[1:19:41] on the board of regents to do a
[1:19:42] great job and to do all that he
[1:19:45] can while he is on the board
[1:19:46] but just like this legislature
[1:19:49] passes bills because sometimes
[1:19:51] we have a governor that we feel
[1:19:53] we can work with and trust and
[1:19:55] other times we May not in the
[1:19:56] future. This is a circumstance
[1:19:58] where we need to look beyond
[1:20:01] just was on the board at this
[1:20:02] point in time but we need to
[1:20:05] think about having a structure
[1:20:07] there so that we don't see
[1:20:07] things like this happen again
[1:20:10] and we don't see. Things happen
[1:20:12] on the backs of employees who
[1:20:14] quite frankly are barely
[1:20:16] getting by and just just making
[1:20:20] enough only. To raise their
[1:20:21] families I respectfully ask
[1:20:25] your rival. Thank you senator
[1:20:30] bates. Thank you Mister
[1:20:31] President hi to reluctantly
[1:20:32] rise in opposition to aca
[1:20:32] fourteen the contracting
[1:20:33] prohibitions contained in the
[1:20:35] measure would have significant
[1:20:36] and disastrous fiscal impacts
[1:20:38] on the university in
[1:20:41] specifically of the uc system
[1:20:42] calculates the increased
[1:20:44] operating costs almost a
[1:20:45] hundred and seventy three
[1:20:47] million dollars per year based
[1:20:48] on the additional wage and
[1:20:51] benefit premiums associated
[1:20:52] with bringing carl this
[1:20:54] contracted work in house. For
[1:20:56] uc san diego which is not
[1:20:57] directly in my district but
[1:20:59] certainly in my egion they
[1:21:00] estimate that this will
[1:21:01] increase facilities maintenance
[1:21:04] costs by twenty one point eight
[1:21:05] almost twenty two million
[1:21:07] dollars during the first year
[1:21:09] of implementation in by six and
[1:21:10] a half million for the
[1:21:12] following years since uc san
[1:21:15] diego must ensure funding for
[1:21:16] our highest priority our
[1:21:19] highest priority students these
[1:21:21] additional costs will deal a
[1:21:23] heavy financial blow to the
[1:21:25] campus as a whole. And it's
[1:21:27] medical enterprise and the cost
[1:21:29] of tuition you see medical
[1:21:31] centers on the california
[1:21:32] hospital association are still
[1:21:36] in opposition to a ca fourteen
[1:21:38] stating it also threatens uc's
[1:21:39] medical centers about
[1:21:41] jeopardizing patient safety in
[1:21:43] increasing healthcare costs the
[1:21:46] uc healthcare system has a
[1:21:47] special place in california's
[1:21:48] health care plans gate
[1:21:50] admission focused not only on
[1:21:53] clinical care but also research
[1:21:55] and education. Delivering for
[1:21:58] patients and communities in
[1:21:59] each of these areas relies upon
[1:22:00] a robust staffing framework
[1:22:02] that includes both direct
[1:22:05] employees and contract staffing
[1:22:07] the medical centers are often
[1:22:09] the only level one trauma
[1:22:12] centers in the region providing
[1:22:13] the majority of highly
[1:22:16] specialized services. Half of
[1:22:17] all the transplant procedures
[1:22:19] statewide in a quarter of the
[1:22:25] severe burn care delivery. To
[1:22:25] californians providing this
[1:22:31] high level of. Should care
[1:22:33] demands the delicate balance of
[1:22:34] staffing resources without
[1:22:35] having to come to this just
[1:22:36] later with every special need
[1:22:36] they might have. Without the
[1:22:38] ability to supplement staffing
[1:22:39] without coming back here with
[1:22:40] contract labor these critical
[1:22:41] services will be laid can
[1:22:43] affect our access to care so on
[1:22:44] behalf of california's
[1:22:46] treasured university system. I
[1:22:49] urge my senate colleagues to
[1:22:52] oppose aca fourteen. Thank you
[1:22:56] senator bill. Members so I rise
[1:23:00] in support of a ca fourteen.
[1:23:02] Members long ago well as a
[1:23:04] students out of the state.
[1:23:06] Students at the uc berkeley
[1:23:09] asked us to attend a rally. For
[1:23:11] the maintenance workers to get
[1:23:12] the fair wages at the
[1:23:16] university. I bring this up to
[1:23:18] illustrate how long this issue
[1:23:20] has of fair treatment of low
[1:23:23] paid workers at the uc system
[1:23:27] has been with us. To have this
[1:23:29] on matt social services issue
[1:23:31] hang over this state. For so
[1:23:35] long. Is appalling and it is an
[1:23:38] embarrassment. The common
[1:23:40] excuse is to you let the
[1:23:43] regents handle that has been
[1:23:46] used many for many years. To
[1:23:48] exclude these workers from fair
[1:23:50] treatment by using the state
[1:23:54] constitution as an excuse one
[1:23:56] otherwise they would receive
[1:23:57] better treatment under our laws
[1:24:00] is discriminatory. I believe
[1:24:01] the voters of california should
[1:24:04] have the chance to correct the
[1:24:07] unfairness. By supporting a ca
[1:24:12] fourteen. As the students staff
[1:24:17] teachers visitors walk through
[1:24:18] the beautiful gardens and
[1:24:20] buildings of the university of
[1:24:24] california. What lessons are
[1:24:27] learned by perpetuating this
[1:24:29] unfairness to the workers who
[1:24:30] work hard maintaining our
[1:24:36] university. Martin luther king.
[1:24:38] Said before the March on selma
[1:24:39] how long will it take. He
[1:24:44] answered how long not long. Now
[1:24:47] that should be our answer. Let
[1:24:49] us been towards justice. Let
[1:24:52] the voters decide. It's been
[1:24:56] too long urge support for a ca
[1:24:59] fourteen thank you. Thank you
[1:25:03] senator borders. Thank you
[1:25:06] Mister President I think there
[1:25:08] are really good people on both
[1:25:11] sides of this issue I think
[1:25:11] some of the points that have
[1:25:13] been brought up by the
[1:25:15] proponents of ac fourteen are
[1:25:16] looking after in their
[1:25:18] estimation the best interest of
[1:25:21] workers in university
[1:25:23] university california's system.
[1:25:26] On the flip side I think there
[1:25:27] are certainly compelling
[1:25:30] arguments as to why I employees
[1:25:32] should to. Or university should
[1:25:33] have the ability and
[1:25:36] flexibility to provide services
[1:25:38] in contract for services as
[1:25:41] needed because university
[1:25:44] systems ebb and flow of the
[1:25:46] needs change. On depending on
[1:25:48] the economy we can expect that
[1:25:49] even further specially as were
[1:25:52] expecting our economy to
[1:25:54] continue to slow down as cycles
[1:25:59] or inevitable. What I'm hearing
[1:26:00] though it. From folks who were
[1:26:01] supporting a ca fourteen. Are
[1:26:04] that. The bargaining unit
[1:26:08] process has not been successful.
[1:26:09] I would think that you've
[1:26:11] already won today. However this
[1:26:13] vote plays out because you
[1:26:14] brought this issue to the
[1:26:16] forefront to the height of
[1:26:17] political awareness and I would
[1:26:21] think that this. Just by virtue
[1:26:23] of what has occurred today.
[1:26:25] He's going to compel folks
[1:26:27] within the regions within the
[1:26:29] bargaining units to try to
[1:26:31] reach an accommodation. And
[1:26:32] I've always been of the opinion
[1:26:36] that that win win common sense
[1:26:38] and urgency are paired results
[1:26:41] occur. And I think that can
[1:26:44] occur right now. My colleague.
[1:26:45] From down south had mentioned
[1:26:51] earlier. This is a broad sword
[1:26:51] being brought to a fairly
[1:26:55] limited issue. To require
[1:26:59] statutory authority. Or any
[1:27:02] changes to occur in staffing.
[1:27:03] It just seems terribly terribly
[1:27:06] cumbersome and frankly it's a
[1:27:07] fait accompli at that point it
[1:27:09] just wouldn't happen so we have
[1:27:12] new leadership at uc we've
[1:27:13] we've gotten renewed
[1:27:15] commitments that they want to
[1:27:17] take in earnest another stab at
[1:27:19] all reaching an accommodation
[1:27:22] toward understanding of for the
[1:27:23] bargaining units in terms
[1:27:25] conditions of employment. Why
[1:27:25] wouldn't we bring this matter
[1:27:29] back. Let the individuals who
[1:27:31] were tasked with reaching a
[1:27:34] collective bargaining decisions
[1:27:36] give them in another few months.
[1:27:38] What it hurt if this issue were
[1:27:40] brought back in January and I
[1:27:44] asked that to the movers of
[1:27:47] this legislation. What would be
[1:27:48] the down fall we could take
[1:27:50] this matter up in January all
[1:27:52] other be enough time I suspect
[1:27:54] to put it on on the ballot if
[1:27:56] it it's still proved so I think
[1:27:57] that is an option I've always
[1:27:59] been the opinion that when
[1:28:01] legislators panic bad policies
[1:28:03] made. And I think gray here
[1:28:04] we're in a situation where were
[1:28:08] panicking and using a broad
[1:28:10] sword on a discreet and limited
[1:28:14] issue that frankly makes for
[1:28:14] bad policy. So I think with
[1:28:17] that. I would. I'm certainly
[1:28:19] going to be recommending either
[1:28:21] a no or a neutral on this to my
[1:28:22] colleagues. Just because I
[1:28:25] think that cooler heads can
[1:28:26] prevail now this issue has been
[1:28:29] brought to the forefront. And
[1:28:31] let's give the and you see an
[1:28:32] opportunity. With their new
[1:28:35] leadership to find their
[1:28:36] accommodations I know that
[1:28:38] folks have said. Enough time
[1:28:39] has passed and they've lost
[1:28:42] confidence in the process. But
[1:28:46] I think with new leadership.
[1:28:46] There is renewed hope and I'd
[1:28:46] like to give them that
[1:28:48] opportunity colleagues I
[1:28:51] respectfully ask for a no or
[1:28:53] neutral any ca fourteen. Thank
[1:28:56] you senator tank. Thank you
[1:28:57] Mister President members high
[1:29:00] rise in support of aca fourteen.
[1:29:03] The uc system has over six
[1:29:04] hundred administrators and
[1:29:06] staff with reporters salaries
[1:29:09] over half a million dollars.
[1:29:10] That's more than twice what the
[1:29:13] governor california makes.
[1:29:15] Twenty fiscal years twenty
[1:29:17] twelve twenty thirteen and
[1:29:18] twenty fifteen twenty sixteen
[1:29:19] the office of the presence aye
[1:29:21] ministers spending increased by
[1:29:24] 20% or eighty million dollars.
[1:29:24] And we can make sure janitors
[1:29:28] are treated equally. The uc
[1:29:31] system is publicly funded we
[1:29:32] have an obligation to make sure
[1:29:34] people are treated fairly. I
[1:29:36] remember we are merely voting
[1:29:39] to put this on the ballot. For
[1:29:41] californians to decide. So with
[1:29:43] that I encourage an aye vote.
[1:29:49] Thank you senator cafiero.
[1:29:51] Thank you Mister President I'd
[1:29:53] like to follow up on on my
[1:29:56] colleague from diamond bars.
[1:29:58] Active and I want to broaden
[1:29:59] the social reflection a little
[1:30:02] bit because I am very proud to
[1:30:05] be a co author of a ca fourteen
[1:30:08] and-the reason that I made the
[1:30:10] decision to become a co author
[1:30:13] was after. Hearing and reading
[1:30:17] about one of the universities.
[1:30:19] At the actions that they had
[1:30:24] taken against the work force to.
[1:30:26] Basically lay them off and
[1:30:29] bring in contract workers and I
[1:30:31] was so appalled by that I just
[1:30:32] felt compelled to do something
[1:30:35] about it and how this gets back
[1:30:37] to what what what I've worked
[1:30:39] on and how it's important me is
[1:30:41] this and I had a I have have a
[1:30:43] bill that that that was over in
[1:30:44] the assembly got over to the
[1:30:46] assembly. That would have sus
[1:30:48] started to set some targets for
[1:30:51] california to reduce poverty in
[1:30:53] our state and depending on
[1:30:56] which report you read our
[1:30:57] poverty level has stayed
[1:30:59] between twenty and 25% for the
[1:31:02] past ten or fifteen years and
[1:31:04] it's gotten that way ecause
[1:31:06] exactly because of what. My
[1:31:08] good colleague from diamond bar
[1:31:11] has talked about it is the fact
[1:31:15] that the lower. Aid workers are
[1:31:17] are laid off or the replaced by
[1:31:19] contract workers who come in
[1:31:21] and get no benefits they get no
[1:31:23] retirement they get no health
[1:31:26] insurance. They get no vacation
[1:31:27] and sick leave pay and they're
[1:31:29] required to work two or three
[1:31:31] jobs in order to be able to
[1:31:32] support their families. And at
[1:31:35] the top you see huge bonuses
[1:31:38] going out you see ceo's and
[1:31:40] cfo's better earning in the
[1:31:42] multiple millions of dollars.
[1:31:45] And this is at the same time
[1:31:46] that workers are getting
[1:31:49] displaced and so. What aca is
[1:31:51] the aca is attempting to do is
[1:31:53] to stop that practice to say
[1:31:55] this is not appropriate now are
[1:31:57] there some things it. Probably
[1:31:58] should be fixed absolutely no
[1:32:01] bill is ever perfect but by the
[1:32:04] same token when we say well.
[1:32:05] You know maybe we should wait
[1:32:07] till January and I get it that
[1:32:08] probably makes some sense we
[1:32:12] can also. Implore our newly
[1:32:14] elected leadership. On the
[1:32:16] board to get it right so that
[1:32:20] this a ca doesn't need to end
[1:32:20] up on the ballot. In in March
[1:32:23] in November as well. I just you
[1:32:25] know we have an opportunity. To
[1:32:27] make a big difference in
[1:32:28] people's lives and I think we
[1:32:31] have to stand up and say our
[1:32:33] lowest paid workers. Deserve
[1:32:36] the opportunity I'm and I and I
[1:32:38] got to say you know I'm from
[1:32:39] I'm from a copper mining
[1:32:42] family. And part of what they
[1:32:45] organized for and they were
[1:32:46] able to win after many many
[1:32:49] years is a pension. Is the
[1:32:51] opportunity to be able to earn
[1:32:52] a living wage they could buy
[1:32:53] their own homes. The
[1:32:54] opportunity to have health care
[1:32:57] and sick leave and vacation
[1:33:00] leave all of those. Are the
[1:33:02] benefits that we come to take
[1:33:03] for granted in when you're
[1:33:05] working in this temporary.
[1:33:07] Country contracted kind of
[1:33:08] environment you don't have
[1:33:09] those kinds of protections and
[1:33:14] so. I'm I'm very proud to be
[1:33:22] able to stand. Happened to say
[1:33:22] you know we have the
[1:33:23] opportunity by the way my bill
[1:33:24] in the assembly was held and
[1:33:24] it's not going anywhere and-
[1:33:25] and I'm I'm in a continue to
[1:33:26] advocate and fight for it
[1:33:27] because I think if you don't.
[1:33:28] Set goals you never get there
[1:33:29] and this is one of those we got
[1:33:31] to get there we got to do this
[1:33:32] right. It's so I respectfully
[1:33:34] ask for your aye vote. Thank
[1:33:39] you senator dorado. Colleagues
[1:33:43] we are so proud. That we
[1:33:46] deliver a first class education
[1:33:47] for everyone who goes through
[1:33:49] the uc system and I before I go
[1:33:51] on I won it knowledge all my
[1:33:53] sisters and brothers who are
[1:33:56] here who work for us. On those
[1:33:59] uc campuses. Because we deliver
[1:34:02] first class education we need
[1:34:04] to acknowledge the first class
[1:34:07] work that is done and therefore
[1:34:10] first class treatment. They
[1:34:11] should be given to the men and
[1:34:13] women who work so hard to help
[1:34:16] our students succeed. Cheap
[1:34:20] labor on our own state run uc
[1:34:20] campuses should not be
[1:34:23] acceptable. And sisters a
[1:34:27] leagues. Taxpayers pay we pay
[1:34:31] for it. Everyone who gets
[1:34:34] contracted out. Doesn't make
[1:34:39] enough to support their family.
[1:34:41] They need then our social
[1:34:45] service net to help them. What
[1:34:46] I'm telling you I've just many
[1:34:49] my live next to hard working
[1:34:51] men and women who work for far
[1:34:54] less than they deserve. Will be
[1:34:58] for a hand up not a hand out.
[1:35:00] Let's reward the hard work of
[1:35:03] these men and women when I hear
[1:35:06] the term used by someone of
[1:35:08] flexibility that sounds like
[1:35:11] the uber code forty nine basic
[1:35:13] needs that working families
[1:35:15] need. This problem has been
[1:35:18] growing for decades and there's
[1:35:20] more and more and more
[1:35:22] subcontracting out and the
[1:35:24] creation of cheap labor on our
[1:35:27] campuses with all due respect
[1:35:30] to a few new good leaders at
[1:35:32] the board of regents. They are
[1:35:36] not calling the shots. When
[1:35:37] they need back up from us they
[1:35:40] need back up from us to show
[1:35:42] that we believe that all
[1:35:44] working men and women should
[1:35:46] have the decent good standard
[1:35:48] of living. Colleagues ask for
[1:35:50] your aye support. Thank you
[1:35:59] senator roth. Thank you Mister
[1:36:01] President colleagues this is a
[1:36:03] difficult issue in an even more
[1:36:06] difficult measure for me
[1:36:08] frankly the easy thing to do
[1:36:11] would be to just stop the issue.
[1:36:12] Or to exceed to the pressure
[1:36:14] from outside this building that
[1:36:15] some of us have been feeling
[1:36:18] over the last. Week or so
[1:36:18] without providing any
[1:36:23] explanation. For my concerns
[1:36:25] about. The measure and not the
[1:36:29] cause but I can't do that. I
[1:36:31] owe you an explanation and more
[1:36:32] importantly I the individuals
[1:36:34] who were in our gallery in
[1:36:36] those who hopefully are
[1:36:38] watching outside this building.
[1:36:41] An explanation for of my
[1:36:44] concerns and an expression of
[1:36:48] my support for a fix. Shortly
[1:36:49] after I was elected if my
[1:36:51] pmemory serves me right one of
[1:36:53] the first picket lines and one
[1:36:56] of the first worker protests. I
[1:36:58] addressed was in asks me action.
[1:36:59] At the university of california
[1:37:04] riverside. I'm sure you can
[1:37:04] imagine it was quite a
[1:37:07] metamorphosis for a-labor
[1:37:07] management attorney for
[1:37:10] riverside.From riverside
[1:37:11] strange how things change in
[1:37:14] our lives. I participated in
[1:37:16] that picket line because I
[1:37:18] recognized at that time and I
[1:37:20] continue to recognize that
[1:37:22] prior administrations at the
[1:37:24] university of california have
[1:37:26] for decades failed to address
[1:37:28] the concerns of some of uc's
[1:37:32] most valuable. But lowest paid
[1:37:35] employees concerns about pay
[1:37:37] concerns about job displacement
[1:37:39] concerns about benefits among
[1:37:45] other issues. These are
[1:37:45] certainly not the actions that
[1:37:48] we expect. From anyone in
[1:37:51] positions of authority in the
[1:37:53] state of california so when I
[1:37:55] reviewed the a. C. A. Fourteen
[1:37:56] this propod constitutional
[1:37:59] amendment I did so from that
[1:38:00] perspective the perspective of
[1:38:03] trying to help those who need
[1:38:06] help the most. Because that's
[1:38:06] what we try to do in this
[1:38:11] capital. In doing so in a nod
[1:38:12] to the proponents of this
[1:38:14] measure I recognize the long
[1:38:15] hours in the extremely hard
[1:38:17] work. Put into trying to get
[1:38:21] this thing right. Unfortunately
[1:38:23] as I reviewed I noted some
[1:38:25] structural deficiencies in this
[1:38:26] measure that could cause
[1:38:29] significant disruption and harm
[1:38:32] from my perspective to the
[1:38:32] university of california's
[1:38:35] health care delivery system.
[1:38:37] Seoul it's been said before but
[1:38:39] I'll just highlighted what is
[1:38:41] this proposed constitutional
[1:38:43] amendment do at its core it
[1:38:45] prohibits contracting for
[1:38:46] services under some very very
[1:38:48] limited circumstances. Let's
[1:38:51] take a deeper look. The bill
[1:38:53] this proposed constitutional
[1:38:55] amendment covers all uc
[1:38:57] contract workers paid to
[1:38:59] perform support services at
[1:39:02] various uc facilities including
[1:39:03] uc medical centers clinics
[1:39:05] research facilities and
[1:39:08] laboratories so in addition to
[1:39:09] impacting the availability of
[1:39:11] workers at university campuses
[1:39:12] we're also talking about
[1:39:14] workers providing patient care
[1:39:15] services that are you see
[1:39:17] medical service around the
[1:39:19] state our top tier hospitals
[1:39:21] providing critical care. To our
[1:39:24] most seriously ill. Are very
[1:39:26] sick. And our most vulnerable
[1:39:30] patients. In many cases we're
[1:39:31] talking about providing care
[1:39:33] and emergency basis that
[1:39:34] frankly cannot be obtained
[1:39:36] anywhere else in the state and
[1:39:38] the patient's census at these
[1:39:39] hospitals can very from day to
[1:39:45] day. And even from our our. Are
[1:39:46] you see medical centers need to
[1:39:47] be able to respond to these
[1:39:49] changes in critical patient
[1:39:51] loads immediately right now not
[1:39:53] next week because they must
[1:39:55] accept patients that show up at
[1:39:58] the door and provide care they
[1:40:01] simply can't say wait a day or
[1:40:02] two until we find someone. To
[1:40:07] do so. So how does this
[1:40:08] proposed constitutional
[1:40:11] amendment force uc to deal with
[1:40:11] that quickly moving target at
[1:40:14] these health centers. You see
[1:40:16] May contract for support
[1:40:18] services only if contracting is
[1:40:19] necessary to deal with
[1:40:21] specified circumstances
[1:40:23] outlined in this amendment
[1:40:24] including the following. To
[1:40:26] supply the university with a
[1:40:28] licensed clinically trained
[1:40:30] workers for a clinical registry.
[1:40:32] How they use that's what they
[1:40:33] used to get temporary workers
[1:40:35] when their lists of part time
[1:40:36] per diem workers are
[1:40:39] insufficient. And to address a
[1:40:40] bona fide emergency
[1:40:42] circumstance which May include
[1:40:44] but not be limited to insuring
[1:40:46] the continuous operations of
[1:40:48] emergency departments and
[1:40:49] providing medical care to
[1:40:50] address life threatening
[1:40:53] situations during an emergency.
[1:40:54] Among a few other listed
[1:40:57] situations. The use of
[1:40:58] contracting authorities to
[1:41:00] secure workers to deal with
[1:41:02] this bona fide emergency
[1:41:04] circumstance or the use of a
[1:41:05] registry to deal with the
[1:41:07] critical personnel shortage is
[1:41:09] only permitted if we first
[1:41:10] authorized such action a bill
[1:41:12] which we passed in this
[1:41:13] legislature. And which is then
[1:41:15] signed by the governor for
[1:41:17] those who want to fact check me
[1:41:18] on the point and I don't blame
[1:41:21] you. Section nine point five c.
[1:41:22] One states in pertinent part
[1:41:24] the regents of the university
[1:41:26] of california May contract for.
[1:41:28] Contract labor to perform
[1:41:32] support services only if
[1:41:36] authorized to do so by statute.
[1:41:37] Now they're very certainly
[1:41:38] various levels a bona fide
[1:41:40] emergencies but imagine having
[1:41:42] to wait for our bill process in
[1:41:43] order to respond to emerge any
[1:41:45] emergency. Particularly in
[1:41:46] emergency at a health care
[1:41:49] facility. Not perhaps a list of
[1:41:51] part time per diem employees.
[1:41:53] Will be sufficient. But what
[1:41:57] happens if it isn't. Clearly we
[1:41:58] have to address worker
[1:42:00] concerns. Clearly we have to
[1:42:02] protect all workers including
[1:42:03] those at uc particularly our
[1:42:05] hardest working lowest paid and
[1:42:07] most vulnerable because that's
[1:42:09] our job and clearly the
[1:42:11] university of california has
[1:42:14] failed to do so for decades.
[1:42:15] but this proposed
[1:42:16] constitutional amendment just
[1:42:19] doesn't work. Obviously we
[1:42:20] can't predict the future
[1:42:21] particularly with regard to
[1:42:23] emergencies of the nature of
[1:42:24] the required response but if
[1:42:26] the proponents are wrong in
[1:42:27] their predictions as to the
[1:42:28] impact on are you see health
[1:42:31] care delivery system. And this
[1:42:33] new process with the language
[1:42:34] that I've identified. Which is
[1:42:38] flood. Needs to be changed. Our
[1:42:40] effort to do so in the process
[1:42:43] to do so will be herculean. And
[1:42:46] we just can't waive it. There
[1:42:48] has to be a better way in the
[1:42:49] form of a constitutional
[1:42:51] amendment to it to achieve the
[1:42:53] objectives that are attempted
[1:42:54] to be achieved here we need to
[1:42:57] take better care and pay better
[1:42:58] attention to the language when
[1:42:59] we draft amendments to our
[1:43:02] state constitution because-for
[1:43:06] those of us. Certainly here we
[1:43:06] know language frankly is
[1:43:11] important. So unfortunately I
[1:43:13] won't be able to support the
[1:43:14] constitutional amendment as
[1:43:17] drafted at this point however I
[1:43:19] commit to working diligently
[1:43:21] with the proponents the uc
[1:43:22] regents in the administration
[1:43:24] to pin down a permanent
[1:43:27] solution to the issues is
[1:43:28] assembly constitutional
[1:43:29] amendment is attempting to
[1:43:30] address in a more craft
[1:43:32] carefully crafted
[1:43:33] constitutional amendment and
[1:43:35] stand ready to do so and have
[1:43:38] been standing ready to do so
[1:43:39] during the last week or so
[1:43:42] we've been talking about this.
[1:43:44] Obviously if this measure
[1:43:45] passes today and is approved by
[1:43:47] the voters well assuming I'm
[1:43:51] still here. I'll do my best to
[1:43:52] ensure that the fire and other
[1:43:55] emergencies that we have indoor
[1:43:57] and seemingly and deron
[1:43:58] increasing basis month after
[1:44:02] month. Coordinate with our
[1:44:02] legislative schedule so we can
[1:44:05] pass an appropriate bill. To
[1:44:06] take care of these issues
[1:44:09] before it gets worse. I'm
[1:44:10] confident that we can
[1:44:12] permanently fix this issue for
[1:44:14] those impacted in in in a
[1:44:18] constitutional amendment. Month
[1:44:19] just not this way thank you for
[1:44:20] your patience. Thank you center
[1:44:23] stir. Thank you Mister
[1:44:30] President. As a as a cal grad.
[1:44:35] Go bears anybody. And as a
[1:44:39] former teacher at ucla I have
[1:44:42] deep affection for this system
[1:44:45] I think it is the finest public
[1:44:45] university system in the entire
[1:44:51] world. And I don't intend. With
[1:44:55] the vote here today. That we
[1:44:57] break the university of
[1:44:59] california in fact I think we
[1:45:03] can strengthen it. I wanted to
[1:45:07] address two issues one of which
[1:45:11] is about money. If you look at
[1:45:12] the fiscal analysis on this
[1:45:15] measure it talk about a about a
[1:45:16] hundred seventy two million
[1:45:17] dollar impact of this
[1:45:22] legislation. When you think
[1:45:22] about the output of this
[1:45:24] university system. The scale of
[1:45:29] economic productivity the
[1:45:31] social mobility that we could
[1:45:36] possibly enable. I think that
[1:45:38] is a more than fillable gap.
[1:45:42] And in my view. We've been
[1:45:43] short changing the university
[1:45:47] california for too long. I am
[1:45:49] very excited that we May be
[1:45:53] passing a an education bonds.
[1:45:55] That would put two billion
[1:45:56] dollars in the higher education
[1:45:58] going forward. We know the
[1:46:00] buildings are starting to fail
[1:46:02] there seismic issues university
[1:46:05] california ucla and berkeley in
[1:46:09] other campuses. But even on an
[1:46:09] annual budget cycle we go
[1:46:13] through every year. I think
[1:46:16] voting for this measure entails
[1:46:18] an obligation to step up to the
[1:46:20] plate for this legislature. To
[1:46:22] help fill this gap. But what I
[1:46:25] wanna say is that. We should
[1:46:28] not have to choose between. Our
[1:46:30] workers fairly and having a
[1:46:32] first class university system.
[1:46:35] I think we can do both. I
[1:46:38] showed up on campus. I first
[1:46:40] year law school on bancroft in
[1:46:42] member walking out to get a
[1:46:43] bite to eat at the
[1:46:44] international house which is
[1:46:46] right up the street I saw these
[1:46:47] folks in green. Standing out on
[1:46:50] the street. I wondered who are
[1:46:52] who are these people. So I
[1:46:55] eight I started conversation
[1:46:58] and it turns out. They're the
[1:47:01] people who kept my school clean.
[1:47:05] Made my campus safe. So I could
[1:47:05] keep my head in the books they
[1:47:11] grinded. And for students.
[1:47:14] Faculty administrators or even
[1:47:16] us is legislators to pretend
[1:47:17] like those people are invisible
[1:47:23] just wrong. So. When we vote
[1:47:25] here today when I take this
[1:47:27] vote I'll be thinking of those
[1:47:31] people up the street. To work
[1:47:32] day in and out to make our
[1:47:36] system go. But I do not think
[1:47:38] this is going to be. A fatal
[1:47:40] blow. To the university
[1:47:44] california. I think we can
[1:47:46] actually establish the moral
[1:47:48] high ground for this university
[1:47:48] system and truly form a
[1:47:52] partnership. That will require
[1:47:54] some additional statutory work
[1:47:56] on our part. I do think that
[1:47:57] there are our needs for
[1:48:01] enhanced flexibility. And that
[1:48:04] express statutory authorization
[1:48:05] to allow for the legislature to
[1:48:08] step in. For a variety of
[1:48:11] circumstances not only in the
[1:48:12] circumstances that could
[1:48:14] senator from riverside brought
[1:48:15] up but also I believe in nine
[1:48:17] point five g. Talks about the
[1:48:20] for the purposes of this act. I
[1:48:22] think there's going to be ample
[1:48:27] flexibility for us here to step
[1:48:27] up but we can't just take this
[1:48:28] vote and walk away. To put our
[1:48:31] money where our mouth. We have
[1:48:32] to find a way statutorily to
[1:48:36] make sure the system continues
[1:48:37] to be excellent. And grows
[1:48:41] itself. So I'll be supporting
[1:48:45] the measure here today. But I
[1:48:47] hope we can start to turn the
[1:48:48] page and end this year of
[1:48:51] enmity that is plague is
[1:48:53] university for far too long. We
[1:48:56] do not need to be at odds. And
[1:48:56] there is a table somewhere we
[1:49:00] can all sit down. And I hope
[1:49:01] for my friends of the region's
[1:49:02] or the leadership of this
[1:49:05] university. They will take this
[1:49:08] not as some review. But as a
[1:49:10] charge the come to step up to
[1:49:13] the plate. And find a way to
[1:49:16] work with us to truly make this
[1:49:17] university the gym that it is.
[1:49:24] Thank you. Senator pat. Thank
[1:49:25] you Mister President senators
[1:49:28] side rise in support of this
[1:49:31] aca I know that many people
[1:49:33] here are graduates of the year
[1:49:36] for the california and it had
[1:49:37] certainly tremendous experience
[1:49:39] there I actually unfortunately
[1:49:42] have nots however I served as a
[1:49:44] faculty member at the
[1:49:45] university california I don't
[1:49:46] know how many of you have
[1:49:48] served on is affecting their
[1:49:50] full time faculty member at the
[1:49:51] mercy california. Affected been
[1:49:53] told us of first full time
[1:49:54] faculty member uc's ever been
[1:49:56] elected to the state
[1:49:59] legislature but if someone find
[1:50:02] someone else let me know and I
[1:50:06] stand support. Actually for.
[1:50:07] Both as a former faculty member
[1:50:10] and also as a physician because
[1:50:10] I know many people brought up
[1:50:13] the health systems. So
[1:50:15] certainly as a faculty member I
[1:50:17] think it's very important that
[1:50:20] we teach our students. And set
[1:50:22] a good example for them as to
[1:50:25] how we do business. At our
[1:50:28] state run university our state
[1:50:30] university our premier that
[1:50:31] crown jewel we call diversity
[1:50:34] california. And so what kind of
[1:50:37] example. Are we setting our
[1:50:41] students when the university.
[1:50:45] Decides to lay off employees
[1:50:46] replacing the contract workers
[1:50:49] or even higher contract workers
[1:50:51] instead of expanding their
[1:50:56] employment workforce. The. Now
[1:51:00] certainly there are times when
[1:51:00] there are temp yelp and there
[1:51:02] it's outlined here that you May
[1:51:04] have situations where you have
[1:51:05] a certain event or something
[1:51:06] where you May need some
[1:51:08] flexibility but I think it is
[1:51:10] important that we teach our
[1:51:12] students and the learners who
[1:51:15] are at the mercy california how
[1:51:17] one can do business and yes we
[1:51:19] hear is the legislature we have
[1:51:20] a responsibility to help
[1:51:23] support. Our university in a
[1:51:23] way that allows them to adhere
[1:51:25] to the values. I do appreciate
[1:51:27] that my good friend to stocking
[1:51:28] the bill from santa clarita has
[1:51:30] pointed out that actually the
[1:51:32] financial cost. Is actually
[1:51:35] bearable within the university.
[1:51:36] And so I do think as a faculty
[1:51:39] member. Who wants to not only
[1:51:42] just teach. My learners through
[1:51:47] lectures are other educational.
[1:51:49] All act. That we should set
[1:51:51] that example and I think that's
[1:51:53] critically important and this
[1:51:53] idea of equity. Because what
[1:51:57] this. Many does and many of you
[1:51:59] spoke to the fact that by the
[1:51:59] way I know that some people
[1:52:01] said well is there a rush to
[1:52:02] judgment here. I mean this is
[1:52:04] an ongoing issue for a long
[1:52:06] time I mean throughout my
[1:52:07] entire time the legislature
[1:52:09] before ever got the legislature
[1:52:13] went. Before some of you are in
[1:52:13] the legislature before I was in
[1:52:13] the legislature I mean this is
[1:52:14] not a rush to judgment this is
[1:52:15] something we've been working on
[1:52:17] for a very long time. And I
[1:52:18] think it is important that we
[1:52:20] set that example now I know
[1:52:22] that many people also raise the
[1:52:23] issue about the med center's.
[1:52:26] And health care systems and-
[1:52:27] other position you practiced
[1:52:29] not only outpatient but also
[1:52:30] information I did you know the
[1:52:32] word attending that other
[1:52:34] things. And believe me yes I
[1:52:36] agree. The it goes up the-
[1:52:37] -
[1:52:37] -
[1:52:37] -
[1:52:38] out in terms of the demands
[1:52:40] right I would also point out
[1:52:43] that perhaps the biggest
[1:52:47] limitation any capacity if some.
[1:52:49] No major event happens is not
[1:52:50] just staff. Although certainly
[1:52:50] that's one place it's actually
[1:52:52] the facility itself. And so we
[1:52:53] have to think about the fact
[1:52:56] that actually the-uc hospitals
[1:52:58] we thought talk about me ever
[1:53:00] very specialty programs. Those
[1:53:00] are not the ones who are
[1:53:02] suffering the large swings in
[1:53:04] demand okay we're talking about
[1:53:06] the merchants you room there's
[1:53:08] a disaster or something. Right
[1:53:10] we do have first of all plans
[1:53:11] and that involves actually the
[1:53:13] existing staff. So there there
[1:53:16] is any we're we actually do
[1:53:18] plan for and organized to
[1:53:20] handle variations in patient
[1:53:23] volume including even. Things
[1:53:24] to happen to the virgin threw
[1:53:26] me off there is a school bus
[1:53:27] accidents we have we are we are
[1:53:30] organized to respond to that
[1:53:33] with existing staff now. There
[1:53:35] is mention in the ac itself the
[1:53:35] says if there's actually a
[1:53:38] large scale emergency the
[1:53:41] governor can declare and weak
[1:53:42] and the university can't pull
[1:53:45] in more people to do that the
[1:53:46] handle that as well so
[1:53:48] certainly if there is there is
[1:53:50] it is a large scale events
[1:53:52] where we do need. To bring in
[1:53:54] many more people into the
[1:53:57] facility there is that capacity
[1:54:01] as well. So. Now maybe there
[1:54:02] you know maybe we do need to
[1:54:03] legislative fix if this is
[1:54:04] passed by the voters and point
[1:54:06] out this goes to the voters
[1:54:08] but-I'd-it this is not. A
[1:54:11] this aca is not going to
[1:54:12] cripple. Are you see health
[1:54:13] system to someone who's
[1:54:15] actually worked there okay and
[1:54:20] so. I think that this
[1:54:21] resolutions important because
[1:54:24] it resolves a problem that's
[1:54:25] been going on for a long time
[1:54:28] at uc. Clearly like any
[1:54:30] constitutional amendment it's
[1:54:33] gonna go to the voters but I am
[1:54:36] also proud of the fact that. We
[1:54:38] can also it has those spaces
[1:54:41] within their for us to fine
[1:54:42] tune the parts that need to be
[1:54:44] fine tuned in there but I they
[1:54:46] do want to just say again I
[1:54:48] support this resolution because
[1:54:50] as both a faculty member we'd
[1:54:51] have to set the right example
[1:54:54] analso as a physician I want
[1:54:56] to see. Our staff the staff
[1:54:58] that's actually taking helping
[1:55:01] us take care to patients. We
[1:55:02] need to be sure we have people
[1:55:04] who both know what they're
[1:55:06] doing. Right yelp believe not
[1:55:07] if you're the person have to
[1:55:09] clean up blood vomit unit you
[1:55:11] actually sorry and-so that's
[1:55:12] what happens in a hospital. You
[1:55:13] know you you it's not you don't
[1:55:14] just pull someone off the
[1:55:15] street they need to not handle
[1:55:20] it. It and but there should
[1:55:20] also know that they're being
[1:55:21] paid the same to gain the same
[1:55:22] benefits they need to know that
[1:55:24] everyone's in it together
[1:55:25] that's how health system works
[1:55:26] alot things work but that's how
[1:55:32] health system work. And so this.
[1:55:32] I think is important step
[1:55:33] forward and I heard tonight.
[1:55:36] Thank you. Thank you senator
[1:55:37] jones. Thank you Mister
[1:55:38] President fishing yeah you
[1:55:40] recognize me. The you know it
[1:55:43] sounds like this morning. We
[1:55:45] have a lot of agreement. On the
[1:55:48] floor here today that there are
[1:55:48] some challenges with the
[1:55:49] university of california
[1:55:53] system. And y know that's
[1:55:55] probably accurate. And I do
[1:55:58] want to recognize and-the co
[1:55:59] author of the senate co author
[1:56:01] from santa three to. And his
[1:56:03] work this year on this project
[1:56:06] along with the assembly author.
[1:56:08] In bringing this issue to us
[1:56:12] and-making it known. And his
[1:56:17] advocacy. For this today. But
[1:56:19] the I think with the main
[1:56:20] source of the disagreement on
[1:56:22] this is were using a
[1:56:25] sledgehammer. To solve a
[1:56:27] problem that needs to be.
[1:56:31] Solved with a scalpel and. I
[1:56:32] appreciate the comment that was
[1:56:34] made earlier in the debate
[1:56:37] regarding first class workers.
[1:56:38] and I do agree that the
[1:56:40] university of california agree
[1:56:43] deserves the very best at first
[1:56:45] class workers and the
[1:56:47] shortcomings their of on some
[1:56:49] of the positionshat that
[1:56:51] that. Comment was regarding.
[1:56:53] But let me talk about some
[1:56:55] first class workers that this
[1:56:58] bill unfortunately as a sledge
[1:57:01] hammer is gonna affect. And.
[1:57:04] Most likely remove their
[1:57:07] professionalism from. The uc
[1:57:08] system this measure will
[1:57:11] increase I has been argued is
[1:57:13] already the high costs on
[1:57:14] parents who want to send their
[1:57:17] kids to uc. The savings at the
[1:57:19] uc currently re real realizes
[1:57:22] from con from contracting will
[1:57:22] be gone. And they'll have to
[1:57:25] make it up somewhere. And part
[1:57:25] of it no doubt will be tuition
[1:57:28] increases. As measure also
[1:57:30] bring detrimental impacts to a
[1:57:32] number of research programs.
[1:57:33] And this is the first class
[1:57:35] workers of which I started with
[1:57:37] one example from my region of
[1:57:38] the state is the university of
[1:57:41] california a san diego scripts
[1:57:42] into the institution of
[1:57:44] oceanography. First this
[1:57:46] measure would got scripts
[1:57:48] ability to contract with call
[1:57:50] qualified mariners to
[1:57:50] supplement their full time
[1:57:53] employees. Which is vital to
[1:57:55] their mission of exploring our
[1:57:56] oceans and studying things like
[1:57:58] climate change sleep sea level
[1:58:01] rise and storm surges which
[1:58:02] they're doing very great work
[1:58:05] on by the way. Yeah they don't
[1:58:05] have enough mariners that can
[1:58:08] set sail. That means that they
[1:58:10] cannot conduct their research.
[1:58:12] Script tires part time
[1:58:13] temporary mariners on a per
[1:58:16] diem basis from the university
[1:58:17] national oceanographic labor
[1:58:20] system. These are well
[1:58:22] qualified and credentialed
[1:58:24] mariners that urged choosing to
[1:58:27] work in this part time system
[1:58:27] stead of the traditinal
[1:58:30] schedules that do not suit them
[1:58:31] for whatever reason they
[1:58:34] choose. But they don't student.
[1:58:36] Additionally the temporary and
[1:58:37] short term subcontractors that
[1:58:39] help repairthe institute ships
[1:58:41] will no longer be allowed
[1:58:43] because they're projects often
[1:58:45] take longer than ten days.
[1:58:47] Script does not have the
[1:58:49] expertise to fix their own
[1:58:51] vessels. Nor do they have a the
[1:58:53] a qualified shipyard in which
[1:58:56] to make those repairs. The
[1:58:57] subcontractors run their own
[1:59:00] businesses and have no
[1:59:02] intention of becoming employees
[1:59:02] of the university system
[1:59:05] california system. Have scripts
[1:59:08] cannot contract with them they
[1:59:08] have plenty of other clients
[1:59:11] that will. The loss of
[1:59:13] expertise will for scripts to
[1:59:15] cut back on the number of ships
[1:59:17] it sales and the number of
[1:59:19] voyages it undertakes.
[1:59:20] Consequently the store script
[1:59:22] the storied strips institution
[1:59:24] of oceanography will not be
[1:59:26] able to fulfill its robust
[1:59:29] research mission. And for those
[1:59:31] reasons I agree with the as
[1:59:33] good senator from riverside
[1:59:35] that f we can come back next
[1:59:38] year and use a scalpel instead
[1:59:39] of a sledge hammer I think we
[1:59:41] can solve the problems that
[1:59:42] have been raised today I
[1:59:44] original vote thank you sir.
[1:59:47] Thank you senator leyva. Thank
[1:59:48] you Mister President good
[1:59:49] afternoon members I rise in
[1:59:51] strong support and I rise and
[1:59:54] I'm excited to be a co author
[1:59:56] on this bill. I want to repeat
[1:59:57] some of the comments that I
[1:59:59] made when we heard this bill in
[2:00:03] committee. You know who are we
[2:00:06] as a group who are we as
[2:00:09] legislators if we can allow. A
[2:00:11] group of workers to be treated
[2:00:13] as second class citizens. And
[2:00:16] this is what I see this as is.
[2:00:17] These are the people who make
[2:00:19] the universities run sure we
[2:00:21] need the teachers sure we need
[2:00:23] administrators but if all the
[2:00:24] folks that are in the gallery
[2:00:26] with us today. And the hundreds
[2:00:27] and thousands of more who
[2:00:30] couldn't be here didn't show up
[2:00:32] to work every day. The uc's
[2:00:33] would close they wouldn't be
[2:00:35] able to run so why is it that
[2:00:37] we don't value them. Like we
[2:00:40] value other people. And one of
[2:00:41] the other things I think is
[2:00:42] interesting and very concerning
[2:00:45] to me. Is that we have our
[2:00:47] future leaders getting an
[2:00:48] education there and what are we
[2:00:50] teaching them about other
[2:00:52] people if we don't value all
[2:00:55] work. This is about valuing all
[2:00:57] work and making sure that
[2:01:00] workers are paid a living wage.
[2:01:01] First one to repeat ome of
[2:01:03] things that I said. In
[2:01:04] committee because I think it's
[2:01:06] important. But I also want to
[2:01:08] address a couple things I heard
[2:01:12] I think I heard someone say
[2:01:13] that. You know we're just we're
[2:01:13] doing this and it should be
[2:01:15] collectively bargained. But
[2:01:16] it's my understanding and
[2:01:17] someone collect correct me if
[2:01:19] I'm wrong. They've been
[2:01:21] negotiating for twelve years so
[2:01:23] that's over a decade that this
[2:01:25] issue has been trying to come
[2:01:26] to resolution. I think that's
[2:01:28] more than enough time and I
[2:01:29] think it's high time that we do
[2:01:31] something. We talk about
[2:01:33] opportunities for students but
[2:01:34] what about talking about
[2:01:36] opportunities for the workers
[2:01:40] at uc let's talk about doing
[2:01:41] something for them the people
[2:01:43] that make sure. Our young minds
[2:01:44] are able to come to these
[2:01:46] universities and be our future
[2:01:48] leaders. The members it's with
[2:01:52] great pride that I am a co
[2:01:52] author and I respectfully ask
[2:01:57] for your aye vote. Seeing no
[2:01:58] other mike's up I believe
[2:02:00] discussion has seized. Senator
[2:02:01] what would you like to close I
[2:02:02] would thank you Mister
[2:02:04] President and I want to thank
[2:02:05] all my colleagues for the
[2:02:07] thoughtful and civil debate
[2:02:08] this morning on on this
[2:02:11] particular issue. The one thing
[2:02:13] I'm very excited about no one
[2:02:14] argued that this is not about
[2:02:16] equity when we discuss
[2:02:17] %-peducation
[2:02:19] policy we always talk
[2:02:20] about hope and opportunity for
[2:02:23] our students. Ladies and
[2:02:24] gentlemen we should have hope
[2:02:26] and opportunity for all people.
[2:02:28] And in this measure gets us one
[2:02:30] step closer to having an
[2:02:34] equitable society I like to
[2:02:35] address. Some of the comments
[2:02:36] that were made. This is not
[2:02:39] about equity equity it must be
[2:02:42] about implementation and cost.
[2:02:44] Terms of implementation. If
[2:02:47] there is an emergency the
[2:02:48] emergency services act
[2:02:51] supersedes this any any other
[2:02:53] measure in the governor has the
[2:02:56] right to call that. In in terms
[2:03:00] of flexibility up turned to pay
[2:03:04] again page five line thirty
[2:03:04] nine see nothing in this
[2:03:05] section shall preclude the
[2:03:06] regents of the university
[2:03:08] california or any campus or
[2:03:11] other entity of the university
[2:03:12] california from using per diem
[2:03:14] university employees to
[2:03:15] complement career in limited
[2:03:17] position university employees.
[2:03:18] What is necessary to maintain
[2:03:21] staffing levels for temporary
[2:03:23] and emergency periods. So that
[2:03:25] does create flexibility and it
[2:03:27] does address the mayor the
[2:03:30] mariners situation with with
[2:03:33] scraps. Ten and obviously the
[2:03:38] medical staff. In terms of
[2:03:40] fiscal accountability this
[2:03:43] measure is prudent. I have a
[2:03:45] whole list here of abuses at
[2:03:46] the uc system has done in the
[2:03:48] past I'm not going to go
[2:03:49] through them yet since it's the
[2:03:52] last day session but they
[2:03:52] currently claim that these
[2:03:56] contracts. Us five hundred
[2:03:57] twenty three million dollars in
[2:03:59] this abc a fourteen would later
[2:04:01] on another a hundred seventy
[2:04:04] two million dollars. Here's a
[2:04:06] the fax our own senate
[2:04:08] appropriations committee staff
[2:04:11] and mike gymnast who was the
[2:04:12] director of fiscal director for
[2:04:14] governor schwarzenegger have
[2:04:15] looked it looked at the
[2:04:17] information and the total cost
[2:04:20] of these labor contracts are
[2:04:20] three hundred and thirteen
[2:04:23] million dollars. We'll take you
[2:04:24] see at their word that it's
[2:04:27] gonna cost another a hundred
[2:04:27] seventy two million so we add
[2:04:30] that in. That's four hundred
[2:04:32] eighty five million dollars
[2:04:32] that's thirty eight million
[2:04:35] dollars less. They claim
[2:04:37] they're paying today so there's
[2:04:39] not going to be any tuition.
[2:04:41] Increases on this measure this
[2:04:44] measure. At worst is face
[2:04:47] fiscally even maybe potentially
[2:04:51] even save money for the system.
[2:04:53] And you know that the pro tem
[2:04:56] in the senator from sensei talk
[2:04:58] about how this is been an
[2:05:00] ongoing battle for decades. For
[2:05:04] decades. For me I love
[2:05:07] basketball and I'm also old so
[2:05:07] I remember basketball before
[2:05:10] there was a shot clock. And I
[2:05:12] personally am ucla basketball
[2:05:14] fan but those who were older
[2:05:16] remember dean smith and in
[2:05:18] north carolina which is also
[2:05:20] historical power. And will and
[2:05:22] dean smith created the four
[2:05:24] corners offense and what that
[2:05:26] was because it was no shot
[2:05:27] clock the minute he got the
[2:05:29] lead. He put his people in the
[2:05:31] corner and they would just
[2:05:32] throw the ball around to keep
[2:05:34] it from the opponents. Ladies
[2:05:36] and gentlementhat's what the
[2:05:38] uc regents have been doing for
[2:05:40] four decades even playing four
[2:05:42] corners with our workers and
[2:05:44] it's wrong it's got to stop we
[2:05:46] need to pass this measure today
[2:05:48] and put them on the shot clock.
[2:05:49] If they want to fix in for this
[2:05:51] goes to voters they can do that
[2:05:53] but we have to force their hand
[2:05:55] there is no leadership. I have
[2:05:57] a minutes about respect I still
[2:05:59] come speaker prez and if
[2:06:01] anybody can get it done he can
[2:06:04] get it done but we're going to
[2:06:05] give them externe courage me to
[2:06:08] get it done. So with that this
[2:06:09] is equitable. It's klay prudent
[2:06:11] infirm my friends and my caucus
[2:06:11] will talk about the best
[2:06:12] government. Is a government
[2:06:15] closest to the people. Nothing
[2:06:15] is closer than letting the
[2:06:18] voters make this decision. So
[2:06:20] with that I respectfully ask
[2:06:21] for an aye vote on a ca
[2:06:24] fourteen. Thank you all debate

[2:42:16] relative secretary of the dial.
[2:42:17] Assembly bill sixty eight by
[2:42:18] assembly member ting an act
[2:42:20] relating to land use internal
[2:42:22] since los yet to offer hold up
[2:42:25] folks we're going to. Get going.
[2:42:29] This is a bill has. That helps
[2:42:34] what was it called the-it is a
[2:42:37] the eighty use. A judge dais
[2:42:44] into. Helpful in areas where we
[2:42:48] have hi congestion. It's kind
[2:42:53] of an intensive way of housing.
[2:42:54] And it's been a big asset. In
[2:42:59] the future. What's happened now.
[2:43:07] The. Building of homes and
[2:43:07] communities doesn't always
[2:43:11] align. With the needs that
[2:43:15] happens for many reasons. In
[2:43:16] the war debts housing often is
[2:43:24] not. The preferred housing. And
[2:43:27] there are also barriers. To the
[2:43:29] development of these housing
[2:43:36] units. So the goal here. Is to
[2:43:38] improve affordability. And
[2:43:43] supply. In part by getting
[2:43:46] units built more quickly. In a
[2:43:53] lower cost. Many local agencies.
[2:43:57] It appears on evenly. Those
[2:43:57] barriers that prevent this
[2:44:01] development. That's why
[2:44:03] assembly member tang has
[2:44:07] introduced this legislation. It
[2:44:10] helps rapidly or more rapidly
[2:44:13] increase density housing. In
[2:44:18] urban areas. It allows the
[2:44:22] construction of multiple.
[2:44:26] Affordability housing unit. In
[2:44:29] the eighty you area on single
[2:44:34] family lots. Californians
[2:44:34] therefore can build more
[2:44:39] housing. It has had thus far.
[2:44:41] Bipartisan support. There's
[2:44:45] merit even. Although this bill
[2:44:48] would not really apply to. The
[2:44:49] little community of paradise it
[2:44:52] was destroyed. But even before
[2:44:54] the fire paradise was trying to
[2:44:58] figure out how. To have more
[2:45:02] multi family residences. In a
[2:45:03] more confined area even in that
[2:45:06] little small community. The
[2:45:07] only twenty seven thousand
[2:45:11] people. This bill will help in
[2:45:15] that regard. I would ask an aye
[2:45:21] vote. As another. Development
[2:45:25] in the great continuum of doing
[2:45:27] something about housing in
[2:45:29] california that being accessory
[2:45:31] units. There are more
[2:45:34] affordable. Economic and
[2:45:40] efficient. Thank senator center
[2:45:41] y. Costly thank you Mister
[2:45:43] President I to rise in support
[2:45:47] of this bill the as the floor
[2:45:49] manager has indicated there's
[2:45:51] been and even barriers through
[2:45:52] different jurisdictions
[2:45:54] throughout the state on the
[2:45:55] implementation of excess
[2:45:58] redrawing unit work this that
[2:46:00] this continue the important
[2:46:02] work that we as a legislature
[2:46:04] haves have done over the last
[2:46:05] few years to develop accessory
[2:46:09] dwelling units throughout the
[2:46:10] state. Ab sixty eight
[2:46:11] harmonizes income and completes
[2:46:13] a suite of eighty you bills
[2:46:16] including my bill sb thirteen
[2:46:17] by removing these remaining
[2:46:19] barriers to eighty you
[2:46:21] construction in this bill we
[2:46:24] include setbacks minimum lot
[2:46:26] size an error and floor area
[2:46:27] ratio requirements that have
[2:46:29] been a barrier I will point out
[2:46:31] my colleague from berkeley has
[2:46:34] champion these ideas in an
[2:46:37] alternative. Legislation I will
[2:46:41] be voting. On a on this
[2:46:41] important housing matter and
[2:46:45] irish and I've of. Thank you
[2:46:46] senator any additional
[2:46:47] discussion debate on this item.
[2:46:50] Internal so until it closed.
[2:46:50] Thank you Mister President.
[2:46:51] Laying down the senate this is
[2:46:54] an example there are three
[2:46:54] bills I think moving along and
[2:46:56] it shows that. There can be
[2:46:58] bipartisan cooperation on these
[2:47:02] issues of great moment. These
[2:47:04] three bills don't part the red
[2:47:05] sea but they are all part and
[2:47:08] parcel of that continuum of
[2:47:09] success to provide more
[2:47:10] affordable housing in
[2:47:14] california. It also shows. A
[2:47:16] linkage between urban and rural
[2:47:18] words such concepts at least
[2:47:21] can help the role as well as
[2:47:25] urban areas I ask an aye vote.
[2:47:27] Thank you. As you can see we're
[2:47:29] short of several members on the
[2:47:30] floor so we're gonna go to the
[2:47:32] roll call one time and then
[2:47:33] we'll place to mount on call.

[2:52:10] would like you. What we're
[2:52:14] doing forty one center help. No
[2:52:26] dot to dot forty one. We don't
[2:52:31] have used forty one on here.
[2:52:43] Okay. For moving a file item
[2:52:44] forty threes senator hertzberg
[2:52:44] are you prepared for the sight
[2:52:48] of. Mister Secretary please
[2:52:50] read. Assembly bill seven
[2:52:51] thirty by assembly member
[2:52:51] berman and act really into
[2:52:56] elections. Hertzberg when
[2:52:57] you're ready thank you Mister
[2:53:00] President. This measure by
[2:53:01] assembly member berman seeks to
[2:53:04] safeguard the integrity of our
[2:53:06] elections a task that is not
[2:53:08] only become more challenging
[2:53:09] with the incredible advancement
[2:53:12] in technology one of the most
[2:53:14] troubling recentdevelopments
[2:53:15] is the invention and
[2:53:19] proliferation. Of deep fakes
[2:53:20] which are extremely convincing
[2:53:23] fabricated photos videos audio
[2:53:25] recordings of someone appearing
[2:53:27] to say or do something that
[2:53:29] they did not. The ability to
[2:53:31] tribute a speech and conduct to
[2:53:34] a candidate is false with his
[2:53:36] never even happened makes deep
[2:53:38] takes a powerful and dangerous
[2:53:42] new tool in the arsenal of
[2:53:43] those who want to wage mission
[2:53:46] formation campaigns. In January
[2:53:48] our united states director of
[2:53:50] national intelligence dan coats
[2:53:52] warned the deep bakes will
[2:53:54] probably be among the tactics
[2:53:56] used to disrupt the twenty
[2:53:58] twenty elections and with those
[2:53:59] twenty twenty elections around
[2:54:02] the corner. We must do more to
[2:54:05] curb the proliferation of deep
[2:54:06] fakes or other manipulated
[2:54:09] media. The language of the bill
[2:54:09] on the read it specifically
[2:54:12] says. A deep take means that
[2:54:15] that a maternal deceptive audio
[2:54:18] or visual media to mean an
[2:54:20] image or recording visual
[2:54:21] recording that has been
[2:54:24] intentionally manipulated. To
[2:54:25] alter the appearance speech
[2:54:27] your conduct of a candid so as
[2:54:28] to create a significant
[2:54:29] likelihood of causing a
[2:54:32] reasonable person to understand
[2:54:33] of experienced expression
[2:54:35] expressive conduct content of
[2:54:36] the image or recording in a
[2:54:38] manner that is fundamentally
[2:54:39] different. From the
[2:54:41] understanding or experience
[2:54:42] that a person would have had if
[2:54:43] the person we're hearing or
[2:54:46] seeing are the on altered
[2:54:47] original version of the image
[2:54:50] or recording. In this says that
[2:54:52] you've got this this basically
[2:54:56] says for some of the period of
[2:54:56] sixty days of the election.
[2:54:57] That makes it illegal. The last
[2:54:58] thing I want to raise the
[2:54:59] constitutional out alley the
[2:55:01] issue and I want to raise. A
[2:55:03] letter that was written by the
[2:55:05] united states the u. S. C. C.
[2:55:07] Berkeley school of law dean.
[2:55:09] One sherman and ski and what he
[2:55:11] said is with respect to the
[2:55:12] constitutionality because x.
[2:55:14] Important as we-try to deal
[2:55:15] with these balances on the
[2:55:17] floor. Although this bill would
[2:55:20] regulate its its prohibition of
[2:55:22] deep the it regulate speech. Is
[2:55:24] prohibition of deep takes would
[2:55:25] not violate the first
[2:55:27] amendment. Fall speech at times
[2:55:29] is protected but often the
[2:55:30] government is allowed to
[2:55:31] prohibited without running
[2:55:33] afoul of the constitution. For
[2:55:36] example lying in the court room
[2:55:38] under oath perjury is not
[2:55:38] protected by the first
[2:55:39] amendment even though it
[2:55:42] speech. The supreme court has
[2:55:43] been clear. The false and
[2:55:45] deceptive advertising has no
[2:55:47] constitutional protection more
[2:55:50] importantly the board has said
[2:55:52] that speech which is defamatory
[2:55:53] of public officials public
[2:55:57] figures. Has not first abed but
[2:55:59] protection. The speed of the-
[2:56:04] ball sir axe. Out with reckless
[2:56:09] disregard for the truth. Six in
[2:56:09] the portents of preventing
[2:56:10] wrongful harm to reputation and
[2:56:11] protecting the marketplace of
[2:56:12] ideas justifies. That liability
[2:56:14] for fall speech ab seven thirty
[2:56:15] the matter which we have before
[2:56:17] us serve these purposes and use
[2:56:19] this exact uses exact legal
[2:56:21] standard. It prohibits deep
[2:56:22] takes in the political realm
[2:56:23] applies only when the false
[2:56:26] images were knowingly or
[2:56:27] recklessly created or
[2:56:28] disseminate and disseminated.
[2:56:30] The technology for deep takes
[2:56:32] advancing quickly the law must
[2:56:35] be kept up. And deal with the
[2:56:36] serious problem I ask your aye
[2:56:39] vote. Thank you senator verges
[2:56:41] on this item. Thank you Mister
[2:56:45] President. Couple of a quick
[2:56:48] comments and we with your to
[2:56:49] with your up to like to pose a
[2:56:51] question to the author of in
[2:56:52] her toward were to take
[2:56:55] question certainly this is I
[2:56:57] think very telling of our time
[2:57:00] we need to protections of this
[2:57:02] of this sort. And I think all
[2:57:04] of us understand that there are
[2:57:07] instances where people can blur
[2:57:10] the lines between advocacy and
[2:57:13] outright manipulation and the
[2:57:15] first amendment being as it is
[2:57:17] we've grown accustomed to
[2:57:19] virtually everything but those
[2:57:22] days. Are are are certainly I
[2:57:24] think of in the past given the
[2:57:25] technology that exists right
[2:57:28] now in the interference that we
[2:57:29] know that has occurred in the
[2:57:31] last election it will can occur
[2:57:33] in all future elections so I
[2:57:35] think this is absolutely
[2:57:39] essential my question to the
[2:57:44] floor manager on this. Is. The
[2:57:45] bonus will the onus May be on
[2:57:46] the aggrieved party. To
[2:57:48] vindicate themselves or will
[2:57:51] the media outlet. That releases
[2:57:55] it be the be those responsible
[2:57:57] party. For the plight. To the
[2:57:58] chair the plaintiff would have
[2:58:00] to prove because it's something
[2:58:01] like this if there was a
[2:58:03] broadcaster whatever. They
[2:58:04] would have to prove the
[2:58:06] plaintiff in the case which
[2:58:07] would not be the broadcaster
[2:58:09] the news media it. Would have
[2:58:10] to put would have to prove.
[2:58:13] That those who broadcast this
[2:58:14] or printed this did so with
[2:58:16] actual malice so the burden
[2:58:17] would be on the plaintiff in
[2:58:18] the standard is about the
[2:58:19] highest standard you could
[2:58:21] make. Because it is very
[2:58:22] challenging this this whole
[2:58:24] thing we've got what technology
[2:58:26] is just mind numbingly
[2:58:27] difficult. Where we have these
[2:58:29] very important principles of
[2:58:31] free speech but we have them
[2:58:32] being that they're being
[2:58:34] recklessly disregarded
[2:58:35] technology in foreign
[2:58:37] government. So we have to
[2:58:38] figure out. How to do it so
[2:58:43] this appears to be a pretty
[2:58:45] carefully crafted and narrower
[2:58:45] than the offer one. Measure in
[2:58:48] order to be respectful of those
[2:58:51] constitution concern so.
[2:58:57] Example. Imagine a in a steamed
[2:58:58] leader in our community. Bob
[2:59:00] hertzberg. All of a sudden is
[2:59:02] put out there on facebook as
[2:59:05] being pro republican. Ballot if
[2:59:07] the with the facebook on
[2:59:09] posting of that. Which facebook
[2:59:11] be held to account are only it
[2:59:14] would be through a news outlet
[2:59:17] like a media source. No the
[2:59:21] under the under the law the
[2:59:23] under section two thirty of the
[2:59:25] federal communications decency
[2:59:27] act no social platforms our
[2:59:28] platforms are immune from
[2:59:30] liability under those theories
[2:59:32] so that is pr empted by the
[2:59:33] federal government. And they
[2:59:37] are not otherwise liable or
[2:59:38] this is definitely a step in
[2:59:40] the right direction thank you.
[2:59:42] Thank you center stone. Thank
[2:59:43] you Mister President I
[2:59:45] respectfully rise in opposition
[2:59:46] to ab seven thirty and I think
[2:59:49] that the california news
[2:59:50] publishers association
[2:59:53] encapsulates the reason quote
[2:59:55] the inevitable result if a. B.
[2:59:56] Seven thirty were to become law
[2:59:59] would be a profound chilling
[3:00:00] effect on political speech the
[3:00:03] very thing. The first amendment
[3:00:06] was designed to prevent for
[3:00:08] those reasons supporting our
[3:00:09] constitution or to note vote
[3:00:11] and ab seven thirty. Thank you
[3:00:13] any additional discussion or
[3:00:15] debate on this item. Seen in
[3:00:16] hearing nine sooner hertzberg
[3:00:18] which ought to close. The point
[3:00:20] thank you very much the point
[3:00:21] about a chilling effect is
[3:00:24] important. Very important there
[3:00:26] is no question about that and
[3:00:28] this is the real challenge that
[3:00:29] e face with these new kinds of
[3:00:31] technologies we saw the speaker
[3:00:32] of the house in washington.
[3:00:34] Being completely manipulated
[3:00:36] through a video three million
[3:00:38] people watch that and it looked
[3:00:39] like it was accurate and today
[3:00:40] the technology is even more
[3:00:43] sophisticated. And so this
[3:00:45] measure has been narrowed it is
[3:00:47] best as you possibly can I
[3:00:49] think that one sherman in skis
[3:00:50] a point of view the dean of the
[3:00:52] law school constitutional
[3:00:55] scholar. The reason I read it
[3:00:56] said it best because and very
[3:00:58] sensitive to those issues. So
[3:00:59] the argument is in so many of
[3:01:00] these things we talked about on
[3:01:01] this floor the last numbers
[3:01:02] today's these delicate
[3:01:05] balances. Balances in terms of
[3:01:07] rights of folks and obligations
[3:01:09] and responsibilities. And so
[3:01:11] now we have this new issue
[3:01:12] weapon ising the internet in
[3:01:14] the way that. No one could ever
[3:01:16] have imagined. And so how do
[3:01:18] you deal with those kinds of
[3:01:19] things how do you balance these
[3:01:20] things that the framers of the
[3:01:21] constitution never would have
[3:01:23] ever dreamed of. And so the
[3:01:25] question is I think as it's
[3:01:26] narrowly drafted targets the
[3:01:28] core political speech. Without
[3:01:30] regard to legitimacy commentary
[3:01:32] and criticism parody and satire
[3:01:34] reenactments of real events.
[3:01:36] The and the like tse types of
[3:01:38] things are not being taken are
[3:01:40] are not being drawn in this is
[3:01:41] about where somebody engages
[3:01:44] the malicious behavior. All on
[3:01:47] the internet. And just is
[3:01:49] completely false and takes the
[3:01:51] situation where in the very
[3:01:52] supreme court cases in the
[3:01:54] public officials have been told
[3:01:56] limited. To give new tools in
[3:01:59] that regard and I think being
[3:02:03] particularly sensitive. To
[3:02:04] chill in fact I think it
[3:02:04] strikes the right balance last
[3:02:09] year I bought. Thank you hall

[3:03:14] Moving on now to file item
[3:03:14] fifty two senator hill are you
[3:03:17] prepared for this item. Thank.
[3:03:19] You Mister Secretary please
[3:03:21] rate assembly bill nine twenty
[3:03:22] by assembly member
[3:03:23] petrie-norris anak ruling of
[3:03:25] health. Video thank you Mister
[3:03:26] President colleagues as a
[3:03:28] principal co author I proudly
[3:03:30] present a. B. Nine twenty by
[3:03:33] assembly woman petrie-norris
[3:03:33] eighty nine twenty protection
[3:03:34] substance abuse patients in
[3:03:37] recovery by requiring all out
[3:03:39] patient treatment programs to
[3:03:40] be licensed with the department
[3:03:42] of health care services.
[3:03:44] Earlier this year this body
[3:03:45] unanimously approved this
[3:03:48] policy in my bill sb three
[3:03:49] twenty five and I appreciate
[3:03:51] our author senator from a
[3:03:53] good senor from laguna gal.
[3:03:55] This measure has known no known

[3:04:05] senator stone thank you Mister
[3:04:06] President I strongly stand in
[3:04:09] support of ab nine twenty it's
[3:04:10] unfortunate that I had a bill.
[3:04:13] That was I held in the assembly
[3:04:15] appropriations that would of
[3:04:16] put alcoholism but the land
[3:04:18] from an act which is kind of
[3:04:19] unfortunate but-this bill. I
[3:04:22] think it's gonna stem the tide
[3:04:25] of inappropriate therapies that
[3:04:26] are out there that are robbing
[3:04:27] people of their savings and
[3:04:28] trying to help their loved
[3:04:30] ones. This is the kind of
[3:04:31] legislation that we need to
[3:04:32] make sure we have honest
[3:04:34] providers out there that are
[3:04:35] trying to help people some of
[3:04:38] the most difficult addictions.
[3:04:39] Namely alcoholism in the state
[3:04:43] and so I. Firmly requests and
[3:04:44] high vote on maybe nine twenty.

[3:05:10] seeking treatment and find
[3:05:12] themselves into very reputable
[3:05:15] ob treatment centers that
[3:05:16] really I use them merely

[3:07:48] file item fifty three senator
[3:07:49] glazier you're prepared for
[3:07:52] this measure. The secretary
[3:07:53] when you're ready please rate
[3:07:55] assembly bill ten eighty six by
[3:07:57] assembly member bauer k. Hand
[3:07:58] an act relating to parks and
[3:08:00] recreation. Center glazer for
[3:08:01] george thank you Mister
[3:08:02] President members I'm pleased
[3:08:04] to present this bill on behalf
[3:08:05] of assembly woman the back of
[3:08:07] our que han it's a bill that
[3:08:09] would allow the department of
[3:08:09] parks and recrtion to sell a
[3:08:12] portion of the carnegie state.
[3:08:13] Vehicle recreation area for
[3:08:17] conservation purposes. If the
[3:08:18] department determines it's in
[3:08:19] the public's interest.
[3:08:20] Currently there is an off
[3:08:21] highway vehicle parked right
[3:08:26] next door. Has been down in
[3:08:29] recent years. This parcel this
[3:08:31] expansion parcel has been.
[3:08:33] Under litigation for quite some
[3:08:36] time it's very controversial.
[3:08:38] And this bill all it does is it
[3:08:39] doesn't require a sale it says
[3:08:41] that if the department.
[3:08:42] Determines in their interests
[3:08:44] that. Sale would be appropriate
[3:08:46] to give them the ability to do
[3:08:47] that. And keep in mind that we
[3:08:49] have an advisory committee of
[3:08:50] off road enthusiasts advising
[3:08:52] the department is the off
[3:08:54] highway. Vehicle commission and
[3:08:55] so the department in
[3:08:56] consultation of the commission
[3:08:57] they make that determination.
[3:08:58] This bill would give them the
[3:09:00] opportunity to sell the
[3:09:01] property now one of the
[3:09:03] provisions of this bill is it
[3:09:05] sets a minimum selling price.
[3:09:07] Doesn't that just follow the
[3:09:10] typical sales surplus land
[3:09:11] protocols it says yes that's
[3:09:14] what will happen but it can't
[3:09:15] kill anything below than what
[3:09:18] the purchase price wise. I want
[3:09:20] to say that this measure
[3:09:21] supported by city in and the
[3:09:26] county of alameda. Because it
[3:09:26] is special ecological value of
[3:09:29] this parcel the sierra club the
[3:09:30] native plant society the
[3:09:32] audubon society of all come out
[3:09:36] in support. Of this bill and
[3:09:36] with that respectfully ask for
[3:09:39] an aye vote. Thank you senator
[3:09:43] borchers. Question for the
[3:09:45] author our or of fields of for
[3:09:47] manager please enter glazer we
[3:09:50] to question happy to yes. Is
[3:09:51] there any reversionary language
[3:09:54] that should a purchaser assume
[3:09:57] title that would keep them from
[3:09:58] selling it to by any other
[3:10:01] entity. And pocketing the fair
[3:10:05] market value. I don't think
[3:10:06] that the thank you for your
[3:10:09] question there's no intention
[3:10:10] to have that be the case it's
[3:10:12] my understanding that there's a
[3:10:14] rules in which we dispose of
[3:10:16] surplus property the state.
[3:10:17] Provides the opportunity for to
[3:10:19] go to a public agencies first
[3:10:21] so the idea that it could ever
[3:10:23] be used for that type of
[3:10:24] activity would be very low this
[3:10:28] is rural land is not urban land
[3:10:29] this is out in the hinterlands
[3:10:32] of. Of alameda county I does it
[3:10:33] have the traditional developing
[3:10:35] rights one might expect in that
[3:10:36] type of area so I don't think
[3:10:39] that. Issue is really in play
[3:10:41] and certainly the department
[3:10:44] could take that into account if
[3:10:44] they were to choose to buy.
[3:10:47] Declare the land surplus. Are
[3:10:48] my only concern is that when
[3:10:50] you're dealing with a-land
[3:10:53] like this. That if you're a-
[3:10:55] bass line is the purchase price
[3:10:58] but it's-that's twenty. Years
[3:11:01] dated. Why they would be using
[3:11:03] the fair market value today.
[3:11:05] And the last would be a
[3:11:07] reversionary clause that the
[3:11:08] property of sold to a third
[3:11:10] party or intent to be sold to a
[3:11:11] third party would automatically
[3:11:13] revert to the state. Of in or
[3:11:16] some sort of conservancy I
[3:11:17] would say this that if that was
[3:11:19] ever an issue I've certainly
[3:11:19] has my commitment and I'll
[3:11:21] check with the author as well.
[3:11:23] To make sure that that would
[3:11:24] not that's not a purpose of
[3:11:25] what this mean that measure
[3:11:26] intends to do and we certainly
[3:11:28] wouldn't want that to be the
[3:11:29] result of a it's really an
[3:11:31] attempt to. If they decide the
[3:11:33] conflict has gone on too long
[3:11:33] the hundreds of thousands
[3:11:35] litigation has gone on for too
[3:11:37] long. That that there's a that
[3:11:38] it can be preserved in
[3:11:43] conservation and permanently
[3:11:44] that's really the goal to give
[3:11:44] them that option. If they so
[3:11:49] choose. Center stone. I think
[3:11:52] it was fair if I if I May ask
[3:11:53] the author of the lord for
[3:11:55] manager question please. We
[3:11:56] take a question yes thank you
[3:11:58] center. And I'm just using my
[3:12:00] recall here or the last time we
[3:12:02] have this being discussed I was
[3:12:04] opposed to it because if I
[3:12:06] remember correct and I. Find
[3:12:08] the to be corrected please
[3:12:10] correct me. That it was hv fees
[3:12:12] at were originally choir did
[3:12:15] use to buy this property. If
[3:12:17] that is the case and if nine
[3:12:19] million dollars is in fact the
[3:12:21] selling price of the property
[3:12:22] with the nine million dollars
[3:12:24] be returned to the a tree fun.
[3:12:27] So we can mitigate the loss of
[3:12:28] always she land in the state of
[3:12:30] california. Thank you senator
[3:12:31] for your question. And yes the
[3:12:32] requirements of the bill is
[3:12:34] that if the property was sold
[3:12:35] again that's an option the
[3:12:37] department would have. Not a
[3:12:39] requirement of this bill. That
[3:12:40] the funds to be returned to the
[3:12:42] o. H. Be fine to be used for
[3:12:45] only hd purposes. And so those
[3:12:46] who are enthusiasts of the
[3:12:47] sport in this bill is in no way
[3:12:49] as-an attempt to a take away
[3:12:51] that recreational opportunity.
[3:12:55] You would you would get
[3:12:55] resources that are locked down
[3:12:56] now going for nothing. And he'd
[3:12:57] be able to get those resources
[3:12:59] back and hopefully find other
[3:13:01] appropriate places to support
[3:13:04] that activity in that would be
[3:13:04] and that. And that's the bill
[3:13:07] provides for that. Thank you.
[3:13:08] Senator I appreciate you
[3:13:12] answering the question. I think
[3:13:13] it's very appropriate that
[3:13:15] since each the funds to pay for
[3:13:16] this property if it's to be
[3:13:17] sold at the ocean go back into
[3:13:19] the hv fun to maybe find more
[3:13:21] appropriate to a piece of land
[3:13:22] in the state of california we
[3:13:24] know over twenty years said.
[3:13:25] Things happen things become
[3:13:26] either more urbanites are
[3:13:28] things going to habitat as
[3:13:29] we've seen in riverside county
[3:13:30] where we have probably one of
[3:13:32] the most progressive habitt
[3:13:33] conservation plans in the
[3:13:36] country with a hundred fifty
[3:13:37] three thousand acres slated to
[3:13:40] be put into conservation but as
[3:13:41] a former each Vi
[3:13:43] user and many
[3:13:45] that use each piece of my
[3:13:47] district. I'm pleased to hear
[3:13:49] that the nine million dollars
[3:13:50] will go back into the which the
[3:13:54] fund I hope that if there is a
[3:13:56] capital gain on this property
[3:13:57] that the good senator will
[3:13:59] maintain its commitment which I
[3:14:00] believe that he will to make
[3:14:02] sure that the hd fund hopefully
[3:14:05] will be we made whole with that
[3:14:07] appreciation and with that i
[3:14:12] stand in support of. This
[3:14:12] measure thank you. Thank you
[3:14:16] senator white culture. I rise
[3:14:18] as a-proud. Resident of
[3:14:18] alameda county Mister President
[3:14:19] rise since. Our in support of
[3:14:20] this measure I think the
[3:14:21] members of the senate chen the
[3:14:22] understand that. Alameda county
[3:14:24] has passed measure d. Which
[3:14:27] limits the development on any
[3:14:29] county open space. The one
[3:14:30] housing units per hundred so
[3:14:32] while this particular piece of
[3:14:34] legislation. Doesn't have
[3:14:36] revisionary language in it
[3:14:38] there are there are in place
[3:14:40] protection said that this.
[3:14:41] Property will remain
[3:14:44] essentially open space again I
[3:14:45] think the floor manager. And
[3:14:47] behalf of the author has. Has
[3:14:49] highlighted the ecological
[3:14:52] uniqueness of this property
[3:14:57] which is the-being protected
[3:14:59] under our current rules the sg
[3:15:00] has the ability to give a
[3:15:02] discount for open space land
[3:15:04] and I think that the discussion
[3:15:06] this vocal one with the sg
[3:15:08] should measure passed this
[3:15:10] house single wanting to gain
[3:15:11] the governor's signature is
[3:15:13] still be a discussion on the
[3:15:16] value that open space also my
[3:15:18] understanding that the
[3:15:20] legislation is written right
[3:15:21] now all the money will go to
[3:15:24] the off road vehicle fund so if
[3:15:26] there's any surplus that's-not
[3:15:28] surplus by the negotiated.
[3:15:30] Amount and this is will be fair
[3:15:32] by in one of the arms is state
[3:15:34] government so I plug the author
[3:15:38] and the floor manager for the
[3:15:39] hard work to persistent work on
[3:15:40] this issue and I would urge an
[3:15:42] aye vote. Thank you senator
[3:15:43] jones thank you Mister
[3:15:44] President and I do appreciate
[3:15:45] the authors hard work on this
[3:15:47] he's been very consistent on
[3:15:50] that. Almost to a fault I think
[3:15:52] and I just know I want to talk
[3:15:54] to the process here. This
[3:15:55] bill's been heard a couple of
[3:15:57] times this year. It was held in
[3:16:00] the assembly the senate bill
[3:16:02] was here. Earlier version of
[3:16:04] this and then all of a sudden
[3:16:06] this week we have a jail break
[3:16:09] on a. B. Ten eighty six. So is
[3:16:11] concerned about the process on
[3:16:17] this and-the. The just a
[3:16:17] process and I would urge no
[3:16:21] vote thank you. Traditions that
[3:16:22] sort of looking for traditions
[3:16:24] thank you. Any additional
[3:16:26] discussion or debate on this
[3:16:28] item he nine senator glazer
[3:16:29] which ought to close thank you
[3:16:31] Mister President let me close
[3:16:32] and talking about the process
[3:16:35] so. This bill in it at the
[3:16:37] constance's this bill were
[3:16:38] heard here in the senate a
[3:16:39] couple times to different
[3:16:40] hearings and was her on the
[3:16:41] floor and passed out earlier
[3:16:43] this year. And this particular
[3:16:45] bills had three hearings in the
[3:16:46] senate prior to the floor
[3:16:49] discussion today. And for those
[3:16:51] who are veterans all know that
[3:16:53] a similar bill almost identical
[3:16:55] was introduced in heard and
[3:16:56] passed out of the senate a year
[3:16:58] ago. So there's been quite a
[3:17:00] lot of discussion on this bill
[3:17:01] and it's almost exactly the
[3:17:03] same form we have it today and
[3:17:04] so I would are make the
[3:17:06] argument that. This is that a
[3:17:07] plot plenty of that vetting and
[3:17:12] I think it's good it's. It's
[3:17:12] for prefers take action on this
[3:17:15] today and finally all that
[3:17:16] hearing process I know we have
[3:17:17] a lot of off road enthusiasts
[3:17:19] in the senate. I myself.
[3:17:21] haven't really gotten on one of
[3:17:21] those bikes yet but I'm very
[3:17:22] open to the idea just so you
[3:17:24] know. Yeah and I know that
[3:17:25] there's a worry that somehow
[3:17:27] this is gonna. I take away
[3:17:28] opportunities for those who
[3:17:31] enjoy that sport. And many of
[3:17:32] those folks live in my district
[3:17:34] in the me just assure you that.
[3:17:35] We have an off road. Vehicle
[3:17:38] parked right next door. And
[3:17:40] it's a great outlet one of
[3:17:41] eight in the state. This
[3:17:43] doesn't change that and anyway.
[3:17:46] And that. Resolving this issue
[3:17:46] and I hope the parks department
[3:17:49] of parks can do that quickly.
[3:17:50] Has the potential to bring a
[3:17:51] lot more resources back into
[3:17:54] the hd fine. So that that that
[3:17:58] activity can be promoted. Where
[3:17:59] it's appropriate in california
[3:18:00] with that I respectfully ask
[3:18:02] for either. Thank you all

[3:27:11] item three center winner are
[3:27:17] you prepared. Mister Secretary
[3:27:21] please you breed dyed senate
[3:27:21] bill two sixty eight by senator
[3:27:22] winner and actually new
[3:27:26] elections winner. I thank you
[3:27:29] very much Mister President how
[3:27:32] colleagues sb to sixty eight is
[3:27:34] a bill to ensure that when
[3:27:37] parcel taxes in bonds from
[3:27:38] local government entities go to
[3:27:40] the voters that the voters have
[3:27:42] complete and accurate
[3:27:44] information about those ballot
[3:27:47] measures under legislation
[3:27:50] passed a few years ago. The
[3:27:52] requirement is that in the
[3:27:52] seventy five word ballot
[3:27:55] question by governments are
[3:27:57] required to put quorum court
[3:28:00] how much people will pay the
[3:28:02] problem is that four tiered
[3:28:05] parcel taxes it's impossible to
[3:28:07] fit that information within
[3:28:08] seventy five words and for
[3:28:10] bonds it's completely
[3:28:12] speculative because you do not
[3:28:14] know how much people will pay
[3:28:15] until you actually sell the
[3:28:17] bond at a particular interest
[3:28:20] rate which is impossible to
[3:28:23] predict at the time the voters
[3:28:28] are voting. On the measure. Hi
[3:28:29] sir sb two sixty eight will
[3:28:30] address this problem. By moving
[3:28:31] that information a require even
[3:28:32] more information than currently
[3:28:34] required and voter guide. And
[3:28:37] by requiring a parenthetical
[3:28:38] within the seventy five word
[3:28:40] ballot question that will state
[3:28:43] quote see voter guide for tax
[3:28:45] rate information the voters
[3:28:46] will be referred to the voter
[3:28:47] guide it will be clear that
[3:28:49] it's a tax. By and they will be
[3:28:51] able to get all the information
[3:28:53] they need and we will be able
[3:28:56] to have comprehensible seventy
[3:28:57] five word ballot questions and
[3:28:59] cities and school districts and
[3:29:01] counties will continue to be
[3:29:03] able to have. Progressive
[3:29:05] tiered parcel taxes I
[3:29:06] respectfully ask for an aye
[3:29:10] vote. Thank you any for the
[3:29:12] description of it on this item.

[3:30:44] Secretary you May read senate
[3:30:45] bill six ninety six with
[3:30:47] senator umberg enact really
[3:30:49] into elections and declared
[3:30:50] throughout the take effect
[3:30:52] immediately on burke. Thank you
[3:30:53] Mister President colleagues of
[3:30:55] the-most rapidly growing
[3:30:57] segment of the voter population
[3:30:59] terms of registration is no
[3:31:01] party preferenceunfortunately
[3:31:02] there's a great deal of
[3:31:04] confusion in california and we
[3:31:05] are the only state that that
[3:31:07] actually permits this on the
[3:31:09] confusion exists because one of
[3:31:11] the parties that one can
[3:31:11] register for is called the
[3:31:14] american independent party. A
[3:31:15] great number of folks as was
[3:31:17] illustrated in various polls
[3:31:19] who register as american
[3:31:20] independent party members
[3:31:22] actually think the registering
[3:31:25] as independence or what is now
[3:31:27] termed as no party preference
[3:31:28] that is not the case the
[3:31:30] consequences of registering is
[3:31:31] an american independent party
[3:31:33] member when you think you're
[3:31:34] registering as an actual
[3:31:36] independent. One of the
[3:31:38] consequences you can't vote so
[3:31:39] for example in the democratic
[3:31:41] primary presidential primary
[3:31:43] for President With this bill
[3:31:46] does is simply says that you
[3:31:48] can't have a party that has the
[3:31:50] word independent or decline to
[3:31:52] state or no party preference or
[3:31:53] variation of those words in the
[3:31:55] designation. In order to make
[3:31:57] sure that the folks who want to
[3:31:59] register as independence that
[3:32:00] they register as eight and are
[3:32:03] no party preference person you
[3:32:06] can't create misleading titles
[3:32:09] that. Are for example connected
[3:32:11] the democratic or republican
[3:32:13] party you couldn't say you're
[3:32:14] an american democratic party
[3:32:18] member or a republican american
[3:32:19] party member because that would
[3:32:21] e confusing hello this bill
[3:32:24] does is it simply says that you
[3:32:25] May not use the word
[3:32:27] independent decline to state or
[3:32:31] no party preference in the
[3:32:31] title. Of a-local party
[3:32:39] tonight. Surgery prepare on the
[3:32:40] yeah yeah very much should just
[3:32:41] in support of the measure
[3:32:42] -
[3:32:43] before us senate romberg it you
[3:32:44] know in in two thousand sixteen
[3:32:46] the los angeles times to the
[3:32:47] study. The story where they
[3:32:50] found that. 73% of the people
[3:32:51] who signed up for the american
[3:32:53] independent party on mistakenly
[3:32:55] thought that they were being on
[3:32:57] affiliated goes to the point.
[3:32:58] That was made in the
[3:33:01] presentation about the
[3:33:02] confusion and the only point I
[3:33:04] want to add is. You don't. Fish
[3:33:07] right to vote. All of the
[3:33:08] things that we're doing around
[3:33:11] voting. To enhance it to make
[3:33:13] it easier to give people
[3:33:15] options to participate in
[3:33:17] everything that we do. Nothing
[3:33:19] is more important than making
[3:33:21] sure there's no confusion in
[3:33:24] the process and when you have
[3:33:27] 73% of the people. Who actually
[3:33:28] thought that they were a part
[3:33:29] part of a note no party
[3:33:30] preference when in fact this
[3:33:33] party is the party that nominee
[3:33:34] in nineteen sixty eight was
[3:33:35] george wallace. I don't make
[3:33:37] that for a statement about
[3:33:39] whether on one side or the
[3:33:40] other I just make it for a
[3:33:41] statement that I suspected
[3:33:43] people knew that. And knew what
[3:33:44] the political philosophy of
[3:33:45] that party was that used the
[3:33:47] word independent. That there
[3:33:51] was clear confusion I was
[3:33:51] supported by the los angeles
[3:33:55] times last year I vote. Thank
[3:33:57] you senator morlock. Thank you
[3:33:58] Mister President I rise in
[3:33:59] opposition to senate bill six
[3:34:03] nine six and. I wrote it this
[3:34:06] morning before fashion started.
[3:34:10] But I see sb six nine six as a
[3:34:10] blatantly oppressive and
[3:34:13] tyrannical maneuver. But what's
[3:34:18] new. About strong arming in
[3:34:22] this chamber call exist
[3:34:23] legislature has gone after one
[3:34:25] positions who are trying to
[3:34:27] protect infants against
[3:34:28] vaccines they May be severely
[3:34:30] allergic to those who hunt
[3:34:32] bobcats three spiritual
[3:34:34] counselors who are perceived to
[3:34:36] be addressing the topic of
[3:34:38] conversion therapy for the for
[3:34:40] industry in california five the
[3:34:42] gig economy I'll stop there. It
[3:34:45] only makes sense to go after.
[3:34:46] An entire political party now I
[3:34:47] not we're having such a good
[3:34:49] role this year. This
[3:34:51] legislature is bold in its
[3:34:53] bullying go boulder global go
[3:34:55] home I guess but this but this
[3:34:57] is center mark we're gonna
[3:34:57] shoes speak to the merits of
[3:35:01] the bill. Thank you Mister
[3:35:07] President do a great job. The
[3:35:10] definition of bali is to seek
[3:35:11] to harm intimidate or coerce
[3:35:13] someone perceived as vulnerable.
[3:35:15] Can decimate the a. I. P.'s
[3:35:17] name because can but the optics
[3:35:20] mac the political bullying. And
[3:35:23] we make laws to stop bullying.
[3:35:27] How ironic. Instead of
[3:35:28] encouraging citizens to do a
[3:35:30] little research take a civics
[3:35:32] tutorial anything to prevent
[3:35:32] them from embarrassing
[3:35:35] themselves sacramento takes
[3:35:36] away the potential because of
[3:35:39] someone's looking inept. The
[3:35:41] art of which we're asking to
[3:35:44] speak to the merits of the bill.
[3:35:45] Thank you Mister President one
[3:35:48] of our Mister President. By
[3:35:50] workplace sooner jones. Thank
[3:35:52] you Mister President make you
[3:35:54] point another point is I
[3:35:55] understood that there was a
[3:35:56] point of order on the other
[3:35:58] side of the chambers I'm not
[3:35:59] sure that the point of order
[3:36:01] was recognized. And if the
[3:36:02] person making the point of
[3:36:05] order would like to rise and
[3:36:05] give their point of order I
[3:36:06] think that would be appropriate
[3:36:09] for the chamber. Center jacqui
[3:36:11] smith below is a point of order
[3:36:13] this is not your main to the
[3:36:15] essence of the bill we had a
[3:36:16] discussion earlier this morning
[3:36:18] about flame throwing
[3:36:19] respectfully from the
[3:36:21] opposition from the minority
[3:36:24] leader wells well taken and it
[3:36:26] has to be applied by both sides
[3:36:27] I am objecting is a point of
[3:36:30] order that the discussion now
[3:36:32] is flame throwing against the
[3:36:34] party in power it is not about
[3:36:36] the issue in the bill entry.
[3:36:39] Before us today and it's that
[3:36:39] basis upon which I am
[3:36:56] projection
[3:37:02] . Thank you. The
[3:37:05] point of order is well taken
[3:37:05] and we're still gonna should
[3:37:06] remain to the subject of the
[3:37:07] bill. President I apologize for
[3:37:11] the. Disturbance that I've
[3:37:12] caused I did not mean to do
[3:37:13] that I just want to make a
[3:37:15] point of conclude by saying
[3:37:16] that the american independent
[3:37:18] party. Has been around longer
[3:37:24] than many of us have been alive.
[3:37:26] I think it's a strange tactic
[3:37:27] Mister President I think it's a
[3:37:32] shame. Thank you very much.
[3:37:34] Thank you any further
[3:37:34] discussion and debate on this
[3:37:39] item yes. Yes. Consider borders
[3:37:40] I concede so you might think it
[3:37:43] was President. I have to admit.
[3:37:45] When I look at party
[3:37:48] designations I get confused.
[3:37:50] When I see american independent
[3:37:51] are the independent is it some
[3:37:53] other organization the lot of
[3:37:56] these things are misleading and
[3:37:56] we had an issue not that long
[3:38:00] ago on. How do we protect the
[3:38:03] first amendment rights well
[3:38:06] still preserving our-our our
[3:38:08] democratic process or or the
[3:38:09] integrity of the voting
[3:38:12] process. It seems like we tried
[3:38:15] to nearly tailor our solutions.
[3:38:18] But this one seems to have the
[3:38:18] opportunity that May have been
[3:38:22] missed. Would it not have been.
[3:38:25] More helpful to protect the
[3:38:28] integrity of our process by
[3:38:30] requesting or even mandating
[3:38:31] for that matter I disclosure on
[3:38:34] any forms that says the
[3:38:37] american independent party is.
[3:38:39] A party that doesn't
[3:38:41] necessarily identify itself as
[3:38:43] independent or some variation
[3:38:46] thereof that informs the public
[3:38:48] that the title the reading May
[3:38:51] not be is as accurate as the
[3:38:53] label that they're interpreting.
[3:38:54] So what I'm what I'm getting at
[3:38:55] with all of this is that there
[3:38:58] is a solution to the problem
[3:39:01] but the bill here. I don't
[3:39:03] think it is it is satisfactory
[3:39:06] so I guess I'm all allen here
[3:39:09] that this is it this could be
[3:39:12] the right step forward but it's
[3:39:13] not drafted. Appropriately my
[3:39:17] opinion. Thank you. Any
[3:39:20] additional script senator bates.
[3:39:24] Low mileage. Thank you Mister
[3:39:25] President a question for the
[3:39:29] author. Senator bob hertzberg
[3:39:31] would you take the question I'm
[3:39:32] certain will be the high point
[3:39:35] of my day yes. Surveys and
[3:39:37] messy because a good senator
[3:39:38] from laguna miguel is asking it
[3:39:41] right. Anyway I am I'm curious
[3:39:42] as to whether the american
[3:39:44] independent party as a
[3:39:47] designation of a party exist
[3:39:49] across the nation or just in
[3:39:50] the state of california. But
[3:39:53] just in the state of california
[3:39:54] just from the thank you that
[3:39:58] was my question. Thank you. Any
[3:39:58] addition discussions debate on
[3:40:02] this item. Nineteen nine center
[3:40:03] on burke would you like to
[3:40:05] close thank you Miss Present
[3:40:08] and to further respond to my
[3:40:11] good friend the senator from
[3:40:19] laguna miguel. We're talking
[3:40:20] about here today terms of a
[3:40:23] party designation this this
[3:40:24] bill is enjoyed bipartisan
[3:40:27] support in the assembly in fact
[3:40:28] I think is 20% the republican
[3:40:31] caucus actually voted for it.
[3:40:32] It is endorsed and supported by
[3:40:33] the association of county
[3:40:35] clerks and election officials
[3:40:37] in it goes to our interests our
[3:40:39] collective interests and in
[3:40:40] ensuring that that voters
[3:40:42] aren't misled. When you go to
[3:40:43] the dmv and you have an
[3:40:45] opportunity to choose a party
[3:40:46] american independent party
[3:40:48] starts is the first party. Of
[3:40:51] using your independent. Can you
[3:40:52] check american independent
[3:40:54] party and that's why we've seen
[3:40:55] at least I think that's what we
[3:40:57] see in. Its growth being so
[3:40:59] dramatic in the last few years.
[3:41:01] If the party which is to be the
[3:41:03] american party they May do so.
[3:41:04] If they wish to be the
[3:41:05] constitutional party which is
[3:41:07] sort of their derivation other
[3:41:09] states they May do so but what
[3:41:10] they can't do is they can't
[3:41:12] confuse voters. By choosing a
[3:41:15] name that many people associate
[3:41:16] with being independent when in
[3:41:18] fact they are not. Here tonight
[3:41:22] vote. Thank you August bait

[3:43:31] for all californians
[3:43:32] respectfully ask for an aye
[3:43:37] vote. Thank you sooner dally.
[3:43:38] The measure present members I
[3:43:40] have to rise in opposition and
[3:43:42] I didn't have the opportunity
[3:43:44] to wait until we have the
[3:43:46] hearing yesterday on this bill
[3:43:48] and as you know I am in the
[3:43:50] trucking business and wanted
[3:43:52] just share I know this bill's
[3:43:54] going to get out but I want to
[3:43:55] share with you what it's going
[3:43:56] to how it's going to impact.
[3:43:58] The small owner operator in
[3:44:01] into in yup the little guy and
[3:44:02] those who have been really
[3:44:05] affected by ab five in in
[3:44:07] recent legislation as well. The
[3:44:11] reason that the cda is off is
[3:44:12] because-the bill states that
[3:44:13] if you have a brand new vehicle
[3:44:16] you don't have to have. Your
[3:44:18] smog check every two years you
[3:44:20] get a for your pass. Most your
[3:44:23] large trucking companies. Big
[3:44:25] business. Least trucks any
[3:44:28] leeson for four years but-
[3:44:29] three or four hundred thousand
[3:44:30] miles on them and then they
[3:44:33] turn at least in. And they then
[3:44:35] are sold typically do guys like
[3:44:39] me who can't afford to buy a
[3:44:39] new one. Even a used truck can
[3:44:41] be round with the last one I
[3:44:41] purchased was about a hundred
[3:44:44] twenty thousand dollars.
[3:44:46] Additionally if your check
[3:44:48] engine light comes on. You're
[3:44:50] gonna have to go get that that
[3:44:52] you have seventy five days for
[3:44:54] act to go get it checked but I
[3:44:56] wanted to share with you that
[3:44:57] there are like a hundred and
[3:45:00] fifty sensors. On these trucks.
[3:45:02] Now on the most recent truck
[3:45:05] that I. Have purchased. I've
[3:45:07] had it to the shop several
[3:45:07] times because I've had a check
[3:45:10] engine light on. In the truck
[3:45:12] seem to be performing well. But
[3:45:13] it's the sensor itself that
[3:45:17] goes out. From six hundred to a
[3:45:19] thousand dollars is the bill
[3:45:20] every time I have to go in and
[3:45:22] have that checked out. Now the
[3:45:24] truck I used to own the older
[3:45:26] trucks that we were able to
[3:45:29] work on ourselves and run for
[3:45:30] years without taking them to
[3:45:33] the dealers. Did not have air
[3:45:34] quality standards we have today
[3:45:36] obviously. But the technology
[3:45:39] now it's changed. Because that
[3:45:40] technologies changed we don't
[3:45:42] have the ability to be able to
[3:45:44] work on our-vehicles as you
[3:45:47] don't your own cars. And so the
[3:45:48] dealers are all for this
[3:45:50] because what does it do it it
[3:45:52] requires you to go in and many
[3:45:53] of you probably have noticed
[3:45:55] that. If you have a car that
[3:45:56] house the sensors that tell you
[3:45:58] how much air is in the in the
[3:46:01] tires it comes on your-dash
[3:46:02] and you have to take it into
[3:46:04] the tire shop. And many times
[3:46:05] it May be just a cold morning
[3:46:07] because it can debts are a hot
[3:46:09] day where you're traveling or
[3:46:12] the sensor goes out. They're
[3:46:13] required by law to not leave
[3:46:15] that that vehicle leave without
[3:46:17] those check engine lights all.
[3:46:19] Which drives acosta for
[3:46:20] everybody even though it's just
[3:46:22] simply a sensor there's nothing
[3:46:23] wrong safety wise you can take
[3:46:26] a gauge and check your tire and
[3:46:28] many times on the trucks. The
[3:46:30] sensor is the problem itself
[3:46:31] it's not the problem with the
[3:46:32] truck so this is going to
[3:46:35] impact. Small operators more
[3:46:37] than it is the big operators
[3:46:40] and it's kind of obvious the-
[3:46:41] promote more cells of trucks
[3:46:43] and that's why the dealers and
[3:46:45] those guys are happy about it
[3:46:47] but they it's going to drive
[3:46:48] the cost up of transportation
[3:46:50] costs in california. Up in
[3:46:51] there is in a minute in the
[3:46:54] bill to the which I think is a
[3:46:55] good part of the bill which I
[3:46:57] will say is that it requires
[3:46:59] out of state truckers to comply
[3:46:59] -
[3:47:01] with california law which will
[3:47:02] help us be a little more
[3:47:03] compared but the end of the
[3:47:05] day. The small guys going to
[3:47:07] get hurt and it's going to
[3:47:08] drive the cost up of living in
[3:47:12] products in california because
[3:47:13] of this piece election so I
[3:47:13] urge. No vote on this bill
[3:47:16] thank you. Thank you any s.
[3:47:20] Senator girl. Thank you Mister
[3:47:21] President a question the author
[3:47:22] yes turner which to question
[3:47:24] absolutely I realize that there
[3:47:25] is an exemption in the bill are
[3:47:27] at there is a an inclusion in
[3:47:28] the bill for out of state
[3:47:29] truckers an out of state
[3:47:31] vehicles that come from across
[3:47:34] state lines is there a also an
[3:47:34] inclusion for out of country
[3:47:37] vehicles. Do you have to have
[3:47:39] an operation you have to help
[3:47:40] go through a smog check. In
[3:47:42] order to receive an operating
[3:47:43] permit in the state of
[3:47:45] california and it would play
[3:47:47] apply to any truck from
[3:47:48] anywhere being driven in the
[3:47:49] city california so if you can't
[3:47:51] your for truck. Whether from
[3:47:52] out of country whether it's
[3:47:54] from out of state. Cannot pass
[3:47:56] a smog check you will not be
[3:47:59] able to register in california
[3:47:59] and obtain an-operator's
[3:48:01] permit. Thank you I appreciate
[3:48:04] that on my own time. We pass
[3:48:06] legislation in this building
[3:48:08] over the fast past ten years
[3:48:09] and it it deals with them you
[3:48:11] know people's freedom like the
[3:48:12] people in the balcony and also
[3:48:14] people's freedom to operate a
[3:48:16] business entering and do when
[3:48:18] you. When you operate a
[3:48:19] business and you have
[3:48:20] legislation that comes through
[3:48:22] just like my colleague from the
[3:48:23] northern california area said
[3:48:25] from beaver. We go from
[3:48:27] cultural low carbon fuels we go
[3:48:28] from low carbon feels ultra low
[3:48:30] covered feels to alter alter to
[3:48:32] non existent to now emissions
[3:48:34] and the turnover rates for
[3:48:36] these these the expense and the
[3:48:38] turnover rates for these pieces
[3:48:39] of equipment for business to
[3:48:41] operate in the state of
[3:48:42] california is completely
[3:48:44] overwhelming. And so having
[3:48:45] that in mind and that's the way
[3:48:46] that businesses are now
[3:48:48] struggling with making sure
[3:48:49] that they comply with the
[3:48:50] current rules under the air
[3:48:51] resources board in the
[3:48:53] equipment that they've already
[3:48:55] bought it is not yet out of
[3:48:58] compliance. I would urge a no
[3:49:04] vote. Center her title. Thank
[3:49:06] you Mister President you know I
[3:49:09] want to start off by. Speaking
[3:49:10] a little bit of truth and I
[3:49:13] know that my colleague from
[3:49:15] chino knows this very wall that
[3:49:15] I've been a little bit
[3:49:17] reluctant to be supportive of
[3:49:19] this bill. Because the district
[3:49:22] has you know that they're just
[3:49:22] they have concerns about
[3:49:26] additional. Regulation and one
[3:49:29] not right but-I ultimately
[3:49:32] decided to support this bill
[3:49:32] because it's the right thing to
[3:49:35] do. And it's the right thing to
[3:49:38] do for my district mobile
[3:49:39] source pollution is one of the
[3:49:42] largest contributors to air. In
[3:49:44] the southern central valley.
[3:49:45] And it's a tough vote for me
[3:49:47] but it's the right thing to do.
[3:49:48] I am pleased to see the
[3:49:50] amendments. That word that
[3:49:51] address many of the
[3:49:54] opposition's concerns. And this
[3:49:56] bill I think strikes the right
[3:49:57] balance and recognizes the
[3:49:59] central role that heavy duty
[3:50:01] trucks play in my district
[3:50:03] while also reducing emissions.
[3:50:04] Of harmful pollutants from
[3:50:06] mobile sources. And without
[3:50:09] colleagues I urge you to vote
[3:50:12] I. On sb two sixty. Q. Any
[3:50:14] additional discussion or debate
[3:50:17] on this item. Cena more
[3:50:18] microphones senator labor would
[3:50:20] you like to close. Thank you
[3:50:21] Mister President and thank you
[3:50:23] to the good senator from saying
[3:50:24] I appreciate that this is it
[3:50:25] May be a tough blow for her
[3:50:27] thank you very much. But what
[3:50:28] I'd like to say members if this
[3:50:30] is our third year we've been
[3:50:32] working on this with everyone
[3:50:33] involved with all the
[3:50:35] stakeholders involved. And you
[3:50:36] know what a good negotiation is
[3:50:38] a good negotiations when
[3:50:39] everybody walks away a little
[3:50:43] bit happy a little bit unhappy
[3:50:44] and that's the balance that we
[3:50:46] have achieved here. All these
[3:50:47] incredibly important but so was
[3:50:49] our small businesses and that's
[3:50:51] why we took every single
[3:50:54] amendment that ag asked us to
[3:50:56] take. Except for one and that
[3:50:57] will go to the h. Q. Empty for
[3:50:59] mobile sourcing to make sure
[3:51:01] and they have committed the rb
[3:51:03] has come a qb has committed. To
[3:51:05] doing mbile source testing so
[3:51:07] you don't have to drive a
[3:51:08] hundred or two hundred miles.
[3:51:10] To get your vehicletested. I
[3:51:12] think this is a bill that does
[3:51:14] what we all want to do here in
[3:51:15] the state of california it what
[3:51:16] we all want to do here on this
[3:51:18] floor. That's to make sure that
[3:51:20] businesses can still operate.
[3:51:22] And be profitable but we also
[3:51:23] still have clean air to breathe
[3:51:24] you've heard me talk about when
[3:51:26] I was a little girl. In the
[3:51:27] seventies and you couldn't see
[3:51:29] the mountains. And things have
[3:51:30] gotten better the skies are
[3:51:32] blue or but we also know that
[3:51:34] the particulates are smaller.
[3:51:36] And we have more work to do we
[3:51:37] know that some of the worst air
[3:51:39] quality is in the central
[3:51:40] valley. And in the inland
[3:51:43] empire this bill over ten years
[3:51:44] will be the equivalent of
[3:51:47] taking three hundred and
[3:51:48] seventy five thousand. Ig
[3:51:50] diesel trucks the works
[3:51:53] polluters. Off of the street. I
[3:51:57] thank you all very much for
[3:51:57] your consideration and I
[3:51:58] respectfully ask for an aye
[3:52:01] vote. Thank you all debate

[4:03:39] an aye vote. Thank you center
[4:03:42] grow on the side of. Thank you
[4:03:43] Mister President question of
[4:03:44] the author majority to question
[4:03:46] of course. Thank you how long
[4:03:47] will it take for funding from
[4:03:48] the stress to actually get in
[4:03:49] the hands of homeowners to help
[4:03:53] them. Well I don't know
[4:03:56] offhand. If you needed before
[4:03:58] we take a vote I'd be happy to
[4:03:59] check with staff and find out.
[4:04:01] That be great. My understanding
[4:04:03] it's going to go into a trust
[4:04:05] is going to be governed by
[4:04:05] there'd be into the stock
[4:04:06] market of the stock market
[4:04:08] crashes. And something happens
[4:04:09] to this funding stream we are
[4:04:10] we get prepared to have the
[4:04:12] general fund replaces three in
[4:04:13] a thirty million dollars that
[4:04:15] was originally stolen. From the
[4:04:21] taxpayers. Center center meters
[4:04:23] checking on your first question
[4:04:24] so she's like frankie Mister
[4:04:46] President. We have
[4:04:56] . Find
[4:04:58] everyone about the circumstance
[4:05:01] of my colleague referenced to
[4:05:03] taxpayer dollars being stolen
[4:05:04] there was a court order that
[4:05:06] declared the legislature needed
[4:05:08] to set up the trust that's what
[4:05:11] the trailer bill does to
[4:05:13] establish the trust in January
[4:05:14] hopefully through another
[4:05:15] budget action so would take
[4:05:18] effect immediately another
[4:05:19] piece of legislation would have
[4:05:20] to be introduced on that then
[4:05:22] would allow the disbursement of
[4:05:26] the of the funds so this
[4:05:30] trailer bill. Establishes the.
[4:05:31] Press fun another piece of
[4:05:31] legislation will be
[4:05:33] implemented. To actually
[4:05:36] disperse the funds. At so I
[4:05:37] can't answer your specific
[4:05:39] question about how long it
[4:05:40] would take but that's the time
[4:05:42] frame that we're dealing with.
[4:05:45] Thank you on my own time. I
[4:05:46] think the information that you
[4:05:49] presented is incorrect the
[4:05:50] order does not require the
[4:05:54] legislature to establish a
[4:05:56] trust the order requires the
[4:05:57] three nine thirty one million
[4:05:57] dollars to be returned to the
[4:05:59] homeowners. And senate
[4:06:00] republicans have been
[4:06:02] advocating for this return of
[4:06:03] these funds were struck for
[4:06:05] struggling homeowners since two
[4:06:06] thousand and fifteen we've
[4:06:07] heard stories of homeowners
[4:06:08] that are still waiting
[4:06:09] desperately for these funds
[4:06:12] that were promised in the two
[4:06:14] thousand and thirteen fourteen
[4:06:16] budgets money was taken from
[4:06:18] these holdovers and put in
[4:06:19] different parts of the budget
[4:06:21] but the majority party. This
[4:06:23] group of individuals then went
[4:06:25] to our then attorney general to
[4:06:26] file a lawsuit this is
[4:06:27] background on this and she
[4:06:29] refused to follow lawsuit or
[4:06:31] work with the administration to
[4:06:32] return these three or thirty
[4:06:34] one million dollars. So we
[4:06:36] stood beside we as republicans
[4:06:37] the national asian coalition

[4:06:52] million dollars was tended only
[4:06:55] to help homeowners homeowners
[4:06:58] and should be returned. For
[4:06:58] people that were taking
[4:07:00] advantage of during mortgage
[4:07:02] and foreclosure crisis this
[4:07:04] bill right here that we're
[4:07:05] discussing today will invest
[4:07:07] these funds an unknown ways and
[4:07:09] not return this money to the
[4:07:12] homeowners. This government did
[4:07:13] not even take up the fight on
[4:07:15] behalf of the people in order
[4:07:17] to return this three nine
[4:07:18] thirty one million dollars to
[4:07:19] the people or the homeowners

[4:07:25] nonprofit indonesian nonprofit
[4:07:27] led by a very strong woman
[4:07:29] advocated and filed a lawsuit
[4:07:31] against this. State of
[4:07:33] california to get this money
[4:07:35] back and they have written
[4:07:38] oppose letter to this piece of
[4:07:41] legislation today because it
[4:07:43] does not return the money to
[4:07:45] the homeowners it puts the plan
[4:07:47] in a trust and establishes
[4:07:51] another government.
[4:08:01] Bureaucratic agency. I didn't.
[4:08:03] motor fans ad this vote right
[4:08:04] here today is just another
[4:08:07] delay for these individuals and
[4:08:08] the homeowners of the state of
[4:08:10] california not to receive this
[4:08:12] money and I urge a no vote.
[4:08:14] Thank you any additional debate
[4:08:19] senator bates. Thank you Mister
[4:08:20] President I to rise in
[4:08:24] opposition to ab one one three
[4:08:25] as we know the state's ream
[4:08:27] court ruled that the three
[4:08:28] hundred thirty one million
[4:08:29] dollars from the settlement
[4:08:31] with the nation's largest
[4:08:32] mortgage banks to how
[4:08:33] california's homeowners
[4:08:36] victimized by illegal lending
[4:08:37] practices during the mortgage
[4:08:40] mortgage crisis was unlawfully
[4:08:42] taken by governor brown and his
[4:08:43] financial officers and diverted
[4:08:45] to the state's general fund.
[4:08:47] This three hundred and thirty
[4:08:48] one million dollars was
[4:08:50] intended to only help
[4:08:52] homeowners who were abused by
[4:08:54] lenders during the mortgage and
[4:08:55] foreclosure crisis and now we
[4:08:57] are being asked to use it for a
[4:08:59] myriad of other purposes as set
[4:09:01] forth in the legislation better
[4:09:03] again questionable given the
[4:09:05] explicit rulings by the courts
[4:09:07] this many should be directed to
[4:09:08] a program that has been
[4:09:11] extremely valuable called keep
[4:09:13] your home california. The free
[4:09:15] mortgage assistance program
[4:09:18] that has helped more than
[4:09:18] eighty four thousand nine
[4:09:19] hundred and fifty homeowners
[4:09:21] who face financial hardship in
[4:09:23] worried about losing their home
[4:09:24] the governor senior housing
[4:09:26] adviser when she was executive
[4:09:28] director of the california
[4:09:30] housing finance agency stated
[4:09:31] and I quote. Keep your home
[4:09:33] california has been a very
[4:09:35] effective program helping
[4:09:37] homeowners deal with their
[4:09:41] financial challenges and avoid.
[4:09:42] Foreclosure as they get back on
[4:09:46] their feet. End quote. Skews me
[4:09:47] this state manage program
[4:09:47] allows homeowners to avoid
[4:09:49] foreclosure by providing as
[4:09:51] much as a hundred thousand0
[4:09:54] dollars in assistance keep your
[4:09:55] home california provides a
[4:09:57] second chance to struggling
[4:09:59] homeowners. The keep your home
[4:10:00] california program is presently
[4:10:02] closed because all of the funds
[4:10:04] that were provided to the state
[4:10:04] of california
[4:10:05] to prevent
[4:10:07] foreclosures that was over
[4:10:09] about two billion dollars. Have
[4:10:10] already been provided to
[4:10:11] approved homeowners are
[4:10:13] committed to qualify to
[4:10:15] homeowners this type of effort
[4:10:16] that the margin mortgage
[4:10:18] settlement was supposed to
[4:10:20] fund. It already exists every
[4:10:22] penny of this settlement money
[4:10:24] should go to reinstate the keep
[4:10:26] your home california program.
[4:10:29] Ab one thirteen does not help
[4:10:30] this were the program in most
[4:10:33] of those affected by in the
[4:10:34] short term by the mortgage
[4:10:37] crisis I recommend a no vote
[4:10:38] thank you Mister Craddick
[4:10:40] sooner very to sb one thirteen.
[4:10:43] Sb one thirteen oz senator y.
[4:10:47] Kaski. President I rise in
[4:10:49] support of the sb one thirteen
[4:10:51] let's be clear if we vote no on
[4:10:54] sb one thirteen nobody gets any
[4:10:56] money. The three hundred and
[4:10:57] thirty one million dollars
[4:10:59] nothing happens it's fine to
[4:11:01] criticize the slow motion of
[4:11:04] state government. That's that's
[4:11:06] fine but this is going to
[4:11:07] transfer the money into the
[4:11:09] national. Mortgage special
[4:11:12] deposit fine and will proceed
[4:11:13] in a timely manner as the
[4:11:14] Chairman Of the budget
[4:11:15] committee is said at the
[4:11:17] beginning of January to make
[4:11:18] sure that every penny of this
[4:11:20] money goes to the people a
[4:11:21] wrist. Who are entitled to a
[4:11:25] region I vote. Thank you
[4:11:28] senator nielsen. Mr leading
[4:11:31] chen the senate I would. Urge a
[4:11:33] no vote again. To me is this is
[4:11:36] a trifling with our process a
[4:11:39] complicated new system. That is
[4:11:42] and will be risky. And going to
[4:11:44] be directed funds if. That
[4:11:46] would passed input into law
[4:11:48] some of these funds will be
[4:11:50] directed to areas that might
[4:11:52] facilitate a certain sector.
[4:11:54] They have an opportunity to
[4:11:56] should curse of housing but it
[4:11:57] is not what we've looked at
[4:11:59] historically as providing
[4:12:02] housing in california. It until
[4:12:04] I think and I argue that it's
[4:12:06] of corruption of the process
[4:12:07] and manipulation of the
[4:12:10] process. And therefore we
[4:12:13] should vote no. Thanks center
[4:12:14] nielsen center jones. I thank
[4:12:16] you Mister President I have a
[4:12:19] letter that the minority leader
[4:12:21] received recently many of the
[4:12:23] points of all of the points in
[4:12:24] the letter actually have been
[4:12:25] debated through the budget
[4:12:28] process and the hearing process
[4:12:30] I did want to quote just a
[4:12:33] short part of it if I could
[4:12:33] Mister Present have permission
[4:12:37] to read. Are you are you asking
[4:12:39] for perjury. Yes sir product
[4:12:40] thank you. And I did get a
[4:12:42] commitment. From the republican
[4:12:44] leader that she will disperse
[4:12:45] this letter to the other
[4:12:47] members if the suit would like
[4:12:49] to have it. But it's from the
[4:12:50] national asian american
[4:12:53] coalition. There see is a faith
[4:12:55] but presidency is faith parties
[4:12:58] to. And the opening paragraph
[4:13:00] the national asian american
[4:13:01] coalition and the national
[4:13:03] diversity coalition. Reiterate
[4:13:05] its fervent call for the
[4:13:07] administrative and legislative
[4:13:08] leaders of the state of
[4:13:10] california. To do the right
[4:13:12] thing in regards of the return
[4:13:13] of the three hundred and thirty
[4:13:14] one million dollars. To the
[4:13:16] national mortgage special
[4:13:19] deposit fund in m. S. D. F.
[4:13:21] That is to utilize and disperse
[4:13:22] the fun in a manner that will
[4:13:25] not delay the original intent.
[4:13:26] Of delivering aid and
[4:13:27] assistance to homeowners in
[4:13:30] distress. There's a-five
[4:13:32] there's six points that they
[4:13:33] make that up that all been
[4:13:38] brought up. But I'll close with
[4:13:38] just by reading the last point
[4:13:41] number six. Homeowners have
[4:13:42] already waited too long for
[4:13:43] these settlement funds to
[4:13:45] actually provide assistance.
[4:13:47] This I needed investment scheme
[4:13:49] appears to delay immediate
[4:13:52] action and results. Instead of
[4:13:56] this bill the state should
[4:13:56] simply use the funds to
[4:13:58] directly assist homeowners this
[4:14:00] year. Mister President I ask
[4:14:02] for a no vote on sb one
[4:14:03] thirteen. Thank you center
[4:14:06] stone. Thank you Mister
[4:14:08] President this is a classic
[4:14:11] governmental bait and switch
[4:14:13] the state should not take money
[4:14:15] that was legally obtained for
[4:14:18] one purpose and then using it
[4:14:20] for another purpose. You know.
[4:14:22] We have a twenty two billion
[4:14:23] dollar surplus in the state of
[4:14:25] california. And it was an order
[4:14:26] the said that this three
[4:14:27] hundred and thirty one million
[4:14:28] dollars that was supposed to be
[4:14:30] used to help those that were
[4:14:33] taken advantage of during the
[4:14:35] mortgage crisis would get that
[4:14:38] money and be able to. Hopefully
[4:14:38] rebound to get back on their
[4:14:41] feet. Look at our homeless
[4:14:42] population in the state of
[4:14:44] california look at our poverty
[4:14:46] over eighteen percent. We
[4:14:48] should be fast tracking this
[4:14:49] three hundred and thirty one
[4:14:50] million dollars and not putting
[4:14:51] it into a special trust.
[4:14:53] Because basically by putting in
[4:14:54] this trust you're looking at
[4:14:56] creating an endowment that's
[4:14:57] not what the supplement said
[4:14:58] we're not creating an
[4:15:00] endowment. To use interest on
[4:15:01] money to help a finite number
[4:15:02] of people and I will say a
[4:15:04] small finite of people. Rather
[4:15:06] than a much larger group of
[4:15:08] people the need to help today
[4:15:09] not ten years from now are
[4:15:11] citizens of the state of
[4:15:12] california. Have waited seven
[4:15:14] years. To get reimbursed for
[4:15:16] the abuses that they suffered
[4:15:18] in the state of california and
[4:15:19] if the democrats in the
[4:15:20] legislature that are holding
[4:15:22] this money up. For that reason
[4:15:24] let's stand for the forty
[4:15:25] million people the state of
[4:15:26] california especially those
[4:15:27] they're taking advantage of
[4:15:29] during the mortgage crisis.
[4:15:30] Let's get to the money to the
[4:15:31] rifle people so they can maybe
[4:15:33] buy a home or rent a home and
[4:15:34] get their cells off the
[4:15:36] streets. I stand up for the
[4:15:36] citizens of the state
[4:15:38] california were heard in the
[4:15:41] mortgage crisis. I hope you
[4:15:42] will too by supporting us be
[4:15:45] one one three. Thank you any

[4:44:10] dollars for the california
[4:44:12] state university in two billion
[4:44:13] dollars to the university of
[4:44:15] california. Recent amendments
[4:44:17] to this bill reflect changes
[4:44:18] requested by the
[4:44:20] administration. In consultation
[4:44:22] with the authors office and
[4:44:24] senate and assembly leadership.
[4:44:25] The bill makes changes to the
[4:44:27] k. Through twelve school
[4:44:28] facility program including the
[4:44:30] following. Increasing the state
[4:44:32] match for low well districts
[4:44:33] and districts with higher
[4:44:35] percentage of low income foster
[4:44:38] care. An e. L. Students. By

[4:44:41] certain applications including
[4:44:43] health and safety. Applications
[4:44:45] that remediate lead in drinking
[4:44:49] water that provide. A priority
[4:44:49] for lower well districts and
[4:44:52] for overcrowded schools. By
[4:44:53] allowing state bond funds to be
[4:44:56] used for the construction of
[4:44:56] preschool classrooms kitchens
[4:44:57] in space for counselors and
[4:44:59] nurses. By adjusting the cap on
[4:45:01] local bonding to augment school

[4:45:09] And also until January first

[4:45:54] to adopt five year affordable
[4:45:57] student housing plans. Members
[4:45:59] the need is great. In fact much
[4:46:00] greater than what is provided
[4:46:03] in this bill. But this bond is
[4:46:07] in is an important step forward
[4:46:07] for all of our educational
[4:46:08] institutions and there's an aye
[4:46:12] vote. Any description of it on
[4:46:14] the item senator morlock. Risk
[4:46:18] President. Colleagues I rise in
[4:46:21] opposition to a. B. Forty eight
[4:46:22] colleagues I have some good
[4:46:24] news and I have some bad news.
[4:46:26] So start with the bad news.
[4:46:28] California's unrestricted net
[4:46:30] deficit grew by forty three
[4:46:32] point eight billion dollars.
[4:46:34] And the last year. The
[4:46:36] unrestricted net deficit for
[4:46:38] June thirty twenty seventeen
[4:46:39] was a hundred and sixty nine
[4:46:41] point five billion. For the
[4:46:43] year ended June thirty twenty
[4:46:44] eighteen it's now two hundred
[4:46:46] and thirteen point three
[4:46:48] billion dollars. The major
[4:46:49] reason for the increase
[4:46:51] colleagues was because the
[4:46:52] government accounting standards
[4:46:54] board that requires finally
[4:46:56] that unfunded actuarial accrued
[4:46:58] liabilities for retiree medical
[4:46:59] plans be included on the
[4:47:01] balance sheet. So in this last
[4:47:03] year california's balance sheet
[4:47:05] is more miserable by another
[4:47:07] twenty five percent. The good
[4:47:09] news is that there were three
[4:47:12] states that there on restricted
[4:47:13] that deficits group much more
[4:47:16] than ours. Illinois grew by
[4:47:17] forty eight point seven
[4:47:20] billion. New jersey by sixty
[4:47:22] five point two billion. And
[4:47:23] taxes by seventy nine point
[4:47:26] five billion. Traditionally
[4:47:28] every year california's had the
[4:47:29] largest unrestricted net
[4:47:32] deficit always placing and
[4:47:32] fifty of place but this year
[4:47:35] there's some good news. Because
[4:47:36] new jersey had such a large
[4:47:39] increase it is now at two
[4:47:40] hundred and fourteen point one
[4:47:42] billion dollars it just edged
[4:47:44] out california with the largest
[4:47:46] on funded. Are should be
[4:47:48] unrestricted net deficit be
[4:47:49] this out by knows the word in
[4:47:50] forty ninth place which is
[4:47:52] probably where we should be
[4:47:53] being a forty niner from long
[4:47:55] beach state kinda cool but
[4:47:57] texas a group to a hundred and
[4:47:59] four point six billion. So if
[4:48:01] you combine those four states
[4:48:03] their unrestricted net deficits
[4:48:04] total of three quarters of a
[4:48:05] trillion dollars. Colleagues
[4:48:06] california doesn't need more
[4:48:10] debt. And if it is paid out of
[4:48:13] the general fund as opposed to
[4:48:15] prop ninety eight the interest
[4:48:16] and principal payments will
[4:48:18] crowd out other critical
[4:48:20] program funding looking at
[4:48:21] fifteen billion dollars you're
[4:48:22] probably looking at another
[4:48:23] eight hundred million dollars a
[4:48:26] year. In interest and principal
[4:48:27] payments colleagues we've also
[4:48:31] seen the an inverted yield
[4:48:32] curve arrive again I've dealt
[4:48:34] with this in times past than it
[4:48:37] did portends a recession is on
[4:48:39] the horizon horizon adding it
[4:48:41] so adding more bond payments
[4:48:43] which are fixed costs to our
[4:48:44] budget will be very imprudent
[4:48:46] at this time. Consequently
[4:48:48] regardless of how good the
[4:48:50] causes for borrowing with too
[4:48:52] much debt of all poll tax
[4:48:53] system growing pension
[4:48:55] contribution costs and a
[4:48:56] potential recessionon the
[4:48:58] horizon I would urge a no vote
[4:48:59] in advice at this legislature
[4:49:00] focus on paying cash for
[4:49:02] improvements and setting funds
[4:49:04] aside now for its future
[4:49:05] maintenance just like we
[4:49:07] require homeowners associations
[4:49:08] to do. Thank you Mister
[4:49:11] President and I urge a no vote
[4:49:15] on a. B. Forty eight. Thank you
[4:49:18] senator borders. Thank you
[4:49:20] Mister President and I also
[4:49:21] want to thank you for being as
[4:49:24] nimble as you you have been in
[4:49:26] making this this new venue work
[4:49:31] out for all of us. A I have
[4:49:31] great respect for my colleague
[4:49:34] from the orange county. Now
[4:49:37] however there are certain needs
[4:49:40] that are essential in our state.
[4:49:42] That at this point cannot be
[4:49:44] satisfied by a general fund
[4:49:47] expenditure. We have in under
[4:49:50] this proposal we have two
[4:49:51] billion they'll be going to
[4:49:52] communicate all ages two
[4:49:54] billion to uc's in two billion
[4:49:58] to see issues on top of the
[4:49:58] nine that would be going to the
[4:50:02] k. Through twelve. I have some
[4:50:05] serious reservations about some
[4:50:07] of the poison pills. Better
[4:50:10] that are in this. And the
[4:50:11] question that I've had to ask
[4:50:15] myself is the needs so great
[4:50:18] that we must. Move this forward
[4:50:20] and moving this forward is not
[4:50:22] a legislative act in terminus
[4:50:25] it is giving the voters the
[4:50:26] opportunity to make a decision
[4:50:28] on this issue. And I believe it
[4:50:30] is my responsibility has
[4:50:32] represent of the central valley
[4:50:33] one of others one of many
[4:50:36] others is to give this
[4:50:37] opportunity to the voters in
[4:50:41] california. I'm a big champion
[4:50:43] of university california c.
[4:50:44] Issues in our communicators
[4:50:46] occasion systems. And the
[4:50:48] infrastructure needs that we
[4:50:52] have. Are much greater than our
[4:50:53] general fund could ever muster
[4:50:56] in any given year or even three
[4:50:58] or four five years so out of
[4:51:01] necessity this infrastructure
[4:51:03] investment is necessary because
[4:51:04] there is just simply no other
[4:51:06] alternative. I am going to be
[4:51:08] casting an aye vote I encourage
[4:51:11] my colleagues to do the same.
[4:51:12] Maybe not because they agree
[4:51:15] with all of the provisions in
[4:51:17] this piece of legislation. But
[4:51:19] giving californians the
[4:51:22] opportunity and the to vote on
[4:51:24] this and the determination to
[4:51:25] reach their own conclusion I
[4:51:27] think is essential and that is
[4:51:29] while be casting an aye vote in
[4:51:31] favor are of higher education.
[4:51:34] Thank you. Center hertzberg.
[4:51:38] Thank you of. Mister President.
[4:51:42] In the last twenty years. We
[4:51:44] have authorized forty eight
[4:51:46] billion dollars in facilities
[4:51:49] bonds for k. Through fourteen
[4:51:50] u. K. Through twelve community
[4:51:53] colleges the issues and the uc
[4:51:55] system make it sixty three
[4:51:57] billion dollars of facilities.
[4:51:59] Indeed there will be some debt
[4:52:00] burden and I think what was
[4:52:02] indicated by to hear million
[4:52:03] dollars a year is probably
[4:52:05] pretty accurate. And we now
[4:52:08] have eighty one billion dollars
[4:52:09] in state and local funding for
[4:52:11] schools. But is every member in
[4:52:14] this senate. And I think most
[4:52:17] members a california understand
[4:52:18] that education is the core of
[4:52:21] upward mobility. To the matter
[4:52:22] is that are you people foot
[4:52:24] spending in k. To twelve is way
[4:52:27] below what it should be. The
[4:52:28] notion of modernizing
[4:52:30] facilities that we have been
[4:52:31] engaged in is something that is
[4:52:33] critically important. And then
[4:52:34] if you're gonna put a small
[4:52:36] burden of debt what better
[4:52:39] place to do that then for
[4:52:41] education for upward mobility
[4:52:42] for providing opportunities
[4:52:43] when you look at every
[4:52:45] economist left to right
[4:52:46] wherever hey are on this
[4:52:48] political spectrum it is all
[4:52:49] about education is the core we
[4:52:51] talk about it. In the
[4:52:52] opportunity today with
[4:52:53] modernizing these facilities
[4:52:55] with new technologies and
[4:52:56] things that we never dreamed of
[4:52:58] before. Is just extraordinary
[4:53:00] so this is the right thing to
[4:53:02] do I stand in strong support of
[4:53:05] this and I thank the author for
[4:53:08] this authors in both houses for
[4:53:09] this measure. Thank you sir
[4:53:12] nielsen. Down on the senate
[4:53:15] this unfortunate day. For the
[4:53:17] state senate a historic day it
[4:53:20] is also in this respect with
[4:53:23] this bill a fortunate day. The
[4:53:24] fortunate day where we can
[4:53:28] stand up for the a priority I
[4:53:29] think that generally all
[4:53:31] californians hold. For the
[4:53:33] public dollars in the state
[4:53:37] public safety and education. I
[4:53:37] believe is to remain at the
[4:53:42] very top. I spent many many
[4:53:43] years serving on the state
[4:53:45] allocation board I got to learn
[4:53:46] very up front and very
[4:53:59] personally the plight of school
[4:53:59] construction deferred
[4:53:59] maintenance rehabilitation.
[4:53:59] Throughout california through
[4:53:59] trying times then. And even now.
[4:54:01] Many of those facilities have.
[4:54:04] Declined even more not having
[4:54:10] been able to be. Rehabilitated.
[4:54:10] Or have maintenance being
[4:54:12] deferred that's a historic
[4:54:15] problem. And though we have
[4:54:17] declining enrollment in some
[4:54:20] schools in california those are
[4:54:20] generally schools that all have
[4:54:23] huge. Deferred maintenance
[4:54:26] challenge and we will have a
[4:54:29] growing enrollment. Throughout
[4:54:34] higher education. Historically
[4:54:36] their capital outlay issues
[4:54:38] deferred maintenance etcetera
[4:54:40] have been funded through the
[4:54:44] state wide bonds. Local
[4:54:44] districts a region's do not
[4:54:48] have the capability. To come up
[4:54:49] with the amount of money that
[4:54:51] is required. For k. Twelve
[4:54:53] education. That higher
[4:54:58] education. And the previous
[4:55:01] bond that had been passed.
[4:55:02] Because of the financial plight
[4:55:05] of the state. Prior
[4:55:06] administrations have been a
[4:55:08] little tight. And getting money
[4:55:11] out. That we've gone through a
[4:55:14] long trough. Without having
[4:55:18] another bonta for. And
[4:55:19] without having sufficient money
[4:55:22] to keep up. Allocated by that
[4:55:27] board. Now is more time in a
[4:55:30] timely than ever. Because the
[4:55:35] need is greater. We all are
[4:55:36] sensitive to the bonded
[4:55:38] indebtedness of california but
[4:55:40] that is not a product I argue
[4:55:42] up k. Twelve education or
[4:55:44] higher education construction
[4:55:47] etcetera bonds. It is a
[4:55:49] plethora of bonds that we have
[4:55:50] lacked for many many other
[4:55:53] purposes. Far less important in
[4:55:57] education. Then I say in these
[4:55:59] times we have got to harken. To
[4:56:03] the highest of priorities. And
[4:56:05] this most assuredly should
[4:56:08] remain our highest priority. We
[4:56:11] cannot sacrifice those
[4:56:14] institutional facilities needs
[4:56:15] for other other five or ten
[4:56:17] years which is what we will
[4:56:19] indoor if we do not. Pass this
[4:56:23] measure. And then encourage our
[4:56:25] citizens of california to
[4:56:28] support the educational needs
[4:56:30] of our youth. Our young people
[4:56:33] and even our adults. One last
[4:56:36] thing I am pleased that in the
[4:56:39] last several days. The
[4:56:41] community colleges have been
[4:56:44] put back to the perry pursue
[4:56:47] status they were a behind. Csu
[4:56:51] and you see. They needed a
[4:56:53] little bit more resources there
[4:56:56] vital part and the master plan
[4:56:57] that we reviewed in the
[4:57:00] eighties set them equal the csu
[4:57:02] and you see full partners in
[4:57:04] the tripartite system of higher
[4:57:06] education in california full
[4:57:09] partners that being the case
[4:57:10] I'm glad now they are full
[4:57:14] partners in sharing some of the
[4:57:14] proceeds from the bond. I
[4:57:18] region I vote. Thank you is
[4:57:20] there any further discussion
[4:57:21] debate on this item. Hearing
[4:57:23] seen on senator glazer would
[4:57:25] you like to close this for
[4:57:26] President Members thank you
[4:57:27] thank you to the senators who
[4:57:28] spoke appreciate the thoughtful
[4:57:30] comments. Particular appreciate
[4:57:32] the support from the us senator
[4:57:33] from fresno the san fernando
[4:57:35] valley and to hannah. And it
[4:57:38] gives you a clear understanding
[4:57:38] of the compromise and consensus
[4:57:40] building that went into this
[4:57:42] measure it enjoys bipartisan
[4:57:44] support. And that happened
[4:57:45] because of the great leadership
[4:57:46] of our governor of our
[4:57:48] President Pro tem speaker the
[4:57:49] assembly and all the
[4:57:50] stakeholders who were involved
[4:57:52] in these discussions to bring
[4:57:53] this measure before you. And
[4:57:54] certainly I'd be remiss without
[4:57:57] acknowledging the good work of
[4:57:58] the education chair in the
[4:57:59] assembly the joint authored
[4:58:01] with me assembly member donald.
[4:58:03] At the end of the day with this
[4:58:04] measure the voters are going to
[4:58:06] make the final decision. But we
[4:58:08] all know as it has so
[4:58:09] articulately been expressed
[4:58:11] tonight the education of our
[4:58:13] youth is the most important
[4:58:14] thing that we do it is a
[4:58:17] priority. I hope that you agree
[4:58:21] I help the voters agree that I
[4:58:22] respectfully ask for either in
[4:58:26] ab forty eight. Thank you.

[5:00:47] of the most vulnerable people
[5:00:49] in our society workers are
[5:00:51] often subject to low wages and

[5:02:54] forty two senator also are you
[5:02:56] prepared for this measure.
[5:02:57] Mister Secretary will you
[5:03:00] please read. Assembly bill
[5:03:02] seventeen forty seven by
[5:03:02] assembly member gonzalez an act
[5:03:06] relating to law enforcement.
[5:03:07] Whenever you're ready senator
[5:03:09] dorado thank you Mister
[5:03:13] President up members ab
[5:03:15] seventeen forty seven. What
[5:03:17] better prevent misuse of
[5:03:18] statewide law enforcement
[5:03:20] databases specifically the
[5:03:22] california law enforcement
[5:03:24] helical telecommunications
[5:03:26] system class class is a law
[5:03:28] enforcement communications
[5:03:30] network available to all public
[5:03:32] agencies of law enforcement
[5:03:34] within the state it provides
[5:03:35] all law enforcement and
[5:03:37] criminal justice agencies with
[5:03:39] the capability of obtaining
[5:03:41] information directly from state
[5:03:44] and federal of federal and
[5:03:46] state computerized information
[5:03:48] files. Recent reports of
[5:03:49] uncovered that some federal
[5:03:51] agencies have been accessing
[5:03:54] state run databases concerning
[5:03:56] information about individuals
[5:03:58] with licenses that were made
[5:04:01] available under ab sixty this
[5:04:02] is a breach of public trust and
[5:04:04] we must implement guidelines to
[5:04:06] protect california residents
[5:04:07] this bill requires
[5:04:09] justification for inquiries
[5:04:12] seeking information other than
[5:04:14] criminal history information.
[5:04:16] Available through clouds this
[5:04:18] bill also authorizes the
[5:04:19] attorney general to conduct
[5:04:21] audits investigations to
[5:04:23] monitor subscriber compliance
[5:04:25] of clouds this bill is needed
[5:04:28] to prevent state resources from
[5:04:29] being used for federal
[5:04:31] immigration enforcement it is
[5:04:33] important that proper measures
[5:04:35] are in place to justify
[5:04:37] inquiries in clubs and allow
[5:04:39] for audits and investigations
[5:04:40] to take place that would
[5:04:44] identify misuse. For these
[5:04:45] reasons I respectfully ask for
[5:04:51] an aye vote. Thank you any
[5:04:53] discussion debate center stone.
[5:04:54] Thank you mr President First of
[5:04:55] all thank you for doing such a
[5:04:56] great job in your adaptation
[5:04:56] today in our staff thank you. I
[5:04:59] rise today in opposition to
[5:05:00] seventeen forty seven ab
[5:05:00] seventeen forty seven will
[5:05:02] prohibit california law
[5:05:03] enforcement agencies from
[5:05:05] sharing databases with former
[5:05:06] federal immigration enforcement
[5:05:10] agencies back in two thousand
[5:05:11] seventeen this legislature
[5:05:13] passed sb fifty four the place
[5:05:14] guidelines on the sharing of
[5:05:16] information to allow. Local law
[5:05:18] enforcement agencies to
[5:05:19] continue sharing information
[5:05:21] regarding critical public
[5:05:22] safety threats and federal law
[5:05:25] enforcement agencies will also
[5:05:26] limiting the use of information
[5:05:27] solely for immigration
[5:05:31] enforcement purposes sb fifty
[5:05:32] four was highly controversial
[5:05:33] and took many months of
[5:05:35] negotiations to get various
[5:05:38] peace officer organizations to
[5:05:40] remove their opposition. Here
[5:05:43] here we are two years later and
[5:05:44] this same legislature is now
[5:05:46] proposing a measure that has a
[5:05:49] strikingly similar language to
[5:05:50] what was once negotiated and
[5:05:54] removed in sb fifty four again
[5:05:55] promises made promises not
[5:05:58] kept. It is the duty of our
[5:06:00] peace officers to ensure the
[5:06:02] safety of all californians
[5:06:04] regardless of immigration
[5:06:06] status peace officers must
[5:06:07] collaborate with federal law
[5:06:10] enforcement agencies to avert
[5:06:12] very real threats posed by
[5:06:14] foreign trans transnational
[5:06:18] criminal cartels. Terrace and
[5:06:19] other statewide and national
[5:06:21] threats sharing information
[5:06:23] helps to make sure that there
[5:06:26] is success in operations
[5:06:27] sharing information keeps
[5:06:31] california safe. This bait and
[5:06:38] switch is unconscious couple.
[5:06:39] And for those reasons I urge a
[5:06:40] no vote on ab seventeen forty
[5:06:42] seven thank you for your time.
[5:06:42] If you were gonna ask that you
[5:06:44] can to keep. The voices down we
[5:06:46] can read a really cares is hard
[5:06:47] here center borders or-on the
[5:06:48] side of. Thank you Mister
[5:06:51] President in a-in dark irony
[5:06:53] I'm looking at this proposed
[5:06:57] legislation as-individuals and
[5:06:58] law enforcement are we now
[5:07:00] wearing handcuffs. That's what
[5:07:02] this legislation does it hand
[5:07:05] cuffs law enforcement to the
[5:07:08] idea that we are taking. A year
[5:07:10] burden of proof normally
[5:07:12] reserved for the court room hey
[5:07:14] now incorporating it into the
[5:07:16] law enforcement process to
[5:07:22] conduct investigations. This is.
[5:07:23] This is an assault on. Law
[5:07:27] enforcement process. And hi we
[5:07:31] see a lot of bills. Some of the
[5:07:33] more controversial but a what
[5:07:35] I'm seeing repeatedly is this
[5:07:38] idea that law enforcement is
[5:07:41] guilty before presumed innocent.
[5:07:42] When we should be reserving
[5:07:44] that type of accountability for
[5:07:47] those who are accused so I
[5:07:48] would ask my colleagues to take
[5:07:51] a close look at this. This is
[5:07:54] handcuffing law enforcement.
[5:07:56] Exchanging information that's
[5:07:59] not what our system is about I
[5:08:01] would encourage my colleagues
[5:08:02] to vote no on this piece of
[5:08:04] legislation there will be
[5:08:06] others no doubt that will come
[5:08:08] in this cycle or in the next
[5:08:10] cycle but this I think crosses
[5:08:12] the line and I ask you to
[5:08:14] respect law enforcement's line.
[5:08:17] I would urge a no vote. Thank
[5:08:20] you any further discussion or
[5:08:23] debate on this item. Senior
[5:08:24] nine senator also would you
[5:08:26] like to close thank you this
[5:08:28] bill requires justification for
[5:08:30] increased seeking information
[5:08:33] other than criminal history
[5:08:35] information available to
[5:08:39] through class I would ask my
[5:08:39] colleagues to support and ask
[5:08:43] for an aye vote. Thank you all

[5:16:18] Secretary please read. Assembly
[5:16:21] assembly bill one seventy by
[5:16:21] assembly member gonzalez an act
[5:16:23] relating to employment. Your
[5:16:24] itchell when you're ready
[5:16:25] thank you very much Mister
[5:16:27] President I rise to present
[5:16:29] assembly bill one seventy by
[5:16:31] assembly member gonzalez bill
[5:16:33] that gives both large and small
[5:16:35] newspapers an additional one
[5:16:38] year to comply with the twenty
[5:16:40] eighteen dynamix ruling. As we
[5:16:41] all know our community
[5:16:43] newspapers are hurting and in
[5:16:46] serious jeopardy both large and
[5:16:48] small publications are facing
[5:16:50] challenges with the advertisers
[5:16:51] moving to the internet and
[5:16:54] online aggregators of news
[5:16:54] cutting the local newspapers
[5:16:57] out. Recently decied dynamix
[5:16:58] decision by the california
[5:17:01] supreme court adds to these
[5:17:01] challenges by converting
[5:17:02] newspaper carriers and
[5:17:05] distributors from independent
[5:17:08] contractors to employees. It's
[5:17:09] the small community newspapers
[5:17:10] that we all have in our own
[5:17:12] areas newspapers that serve
[5:17:14] rule california monolingual
[5:17:16] communities it's the ethnic
[5:17:18] papers that sells weeklies that
[5:17:19] so many of our constituents
[5:17:23] rely on to access critical news
[5:17:25] every day. The jewish journal
[5:17:27] culver city news beverly press
[5:17:30] the korean times our weekly the
[5:17:31] la set no those are just a
[5:17:33] handful in my very own district
[5:17:36] who I know will be impacted if
[5:17:38] we don't take action and give
[5:17:40] them time to figure out a way
[5:17:44] to comply with the new. Supreme
[5:17:48] court ruling hand state law.
[5:17:49] This time will ensure that the
[5:17:51] newspapers can adjust their
[5:17:52] delivery methods to comply with
[5:17:54] the law. Without facing
[5:17:57] disastrous liability while also
[5:17:58] ensuring that the newspaper
[5:18:00] industry eventually complies
[5:18:01] with dynamics and ensure that
[5:18:03] the newspaper carriers are
[5:18:05] fairly paid and protected by
[5:18:07] california labor law. I asked
[5:18:13] for an aye vote. Thank you any.
[5:18:14] Discussion and debate center
[5:18:16] bates I have a an amendment to
[5:18:20] at the desk. Mr sector please
[5:18:22] read the amendment amendments
[5:18:25] by senator bates for that one
[5:18:27] but you May proceed thank you.
[5:18:29] Members are this amendment is
[5:18:30] quite simple it would provide
[5:18:33] an exemption for up for maybe
[5:18:35] five for newspaper carriers or
[5:18:37] newspaper distributors these
[5:18:39] are local newspaper delivery
[5:18:41] people for most this is a
[5:18:43] supplemental source of income
[5:18:44] many deliver multiple
[5:18:45] newspapers on their routes
[5:18:47] which is slow certainly on my
[5:18:49] home. From the mercury news
[5:18:51] group editorial let me read May
[5:18:55] I read. Quote california
[5:18:56] legislators should not in
[5:18:57] danger newspapers lawmakers
[5:18:59] debating the future of the gig
[5:19:01] economy are threatening the for
[5:19:02] staying ability of legacy
[5:19:04] industries the sacramento bee
[5:19:06] editorial stated by requiring
[5:19:08] newspapers to extend employee
[5:19:10] benefits and protections. To
[5:19:12] all and newspaper carriers ab
[5:19:13] five would make newspaper
[5:19:15] delivery economically
[5:19:17] economically impossible the
[5:19:19] loss of prince revenue from
[5:19:21] scrapping the print edition of
[5:19:23] the paper with then deal a
[5:19:24] severe blow to both the
[5:19:26] newspaper industries viability
[5:19:29] and their mission. A one year
[5:19:31] delay is not sufficient we can
[5:19:33] fix this specific problem with
[5:19:36] ab five today we can adopt this
[5:19:37] amendment it is simple it is
[5:19:41] reasonable in s. Urgently
[5:19:41] needed I urge your support of
[5:19:46] this amendment. Mr majority

[5:21:54] flaw of ab five selecting
[5:21:55] industries are not clear
[5:21:59] factors. That's a greatly. As I

[5:23:58] there any additional discussion
[5:24:02] of the bill in chief. Center
[5:24:06] more mark are you. Yes center
[5:24:06] morlock thank you Mister
[5:24:09] President. Colleagues so
[5:24:10] wednesday evening I proffered
[5:24:14] an amendment to the for one
[5:24:16] year the implementation of ab
[5:24:19] five for the gig economy. I
[5:24:20] lamented that ab five pick
[5:24:23] winners and losers. Ab one
[5:24:24] seventy proves my point thank
[5:24:28] you. The owners of dynamics
[5:24:29] have done the state a huge
[5:24:31] disservice. They made a big
[5:24:34] mistake. But government makes
[5:24:37] mistakes to. When a salesman
[5:24:39] comes in and convention to do
[5:24:40] something that seems attractive
[5:24:43] but is not appropriate can we
[5:24:48] all say rta abuse. But a hodge
[5:24:48] podge strategy makes the
[5:24:51] legislature. A little
[5:24:54] dysfunctional and maybe not
[5:24:56] have a good grasp on income tax
[5:24:58] and personal off personnel law
[5:25:00] and therefore I suggest and
[5:25:03] strongly recommend a nobody no
[5:25:04] vote on ab one seventy thank
[5:25:05] you Mister President. You
[5:25:08] center dallas. Name is resident
[5:25:11] members I also. Come up to rise
[5:25:13] in opposition to this bill I
[5:25:16] spoke in very high detail about
[5:25:19] the dynamics case and-picking
[5:25:20] winners and losers in. The
[5:25:24] state assembly senate you know
[5:25:25] mark twain quoted did never
[5:25:27] pick a fight with people who
[5:25:30] buy ink by the barrel. And I'm
[5:25:32] not trying to pick a fight with
[5:25:35] my local papers by any means.
[5:25:37] But the problem here is that I
[5:25:38] have a hospital that cannot
[5:25:40] higher now an anesthesiologist
[5:25:41] part time to come and do
[5:25:43] surgery in my rule community
[5:25:46] because we didn't exempts them.
[5:25:48] Long with there's a physical
[5:25:48] therapist along with infinite
[5:25:51] truckers. There are really
[5:25:52] thousands of people who need
[5:25:54] this exemption and this
[5:25:56] legislature's picking winners
[5:25:57] and losers perfect example this
[5:26:00] bill right here. We need to do
[5:26:02] a visit a business exemption.
[5:26:05] Yes was dynamax wrong
[5:26:09] absolutely they were employees.
[5:26:10] Then they ten ninety nine them
[5:26:13] and made them. Contractors
[5:26:15] there are several people out
[5:26:16] there are in business that ten
[5:26:17] ninety nine each other every
[5:26:19] day such as myself I do the
[5:26:19] same things with business to
[5:26:22] business. We need to take this
[5:26:25] serious and we need to exempt
[5:26:27] the thousands of people who are
[5:26:28] doing the right thing in
[5:26:30] business to business. Fired a
[5:26:30] no vote on this bill we're
[5:26:33] gonna be doing this. All year
[5:26:35] next year if we're gonna pick
[5:26:37] one at a time. Let's fix it
[5:26:38] right take care of all those
[5:26:39] people who were doing business
[5:26:40] to business. And go out to
[5:26:42] those bad actors like dynamax.
[5:26:43] And the people who are
[5:26:45] exploiting workers absolutely.
[5:26:46] But this is not going to work
[5:26:48] we're gonna be doing this. All
[5:26:51] next year genova. Thank you
[5:26:54] center stone. Mister President
[5:26:57] colleagues a. B. One seventy as
[5:27:00] we know is a sister bill to ab
[5:27:01] five exempts newspaper
[5:27:03] distributors for one year. From
[5:27:04] the dynamics application and I
[5:27:07] share the same. Viewpoints is
[5:27:09] my speaker right before our
[5:27:10] from northern california at
[5:27:12] that. We don't condone with
[5:27:16] dynamics did. And to broad
[5:27:18] brush can throw the baby out
[5:27:19] with the bathwater as were
[5:27:21] doing is going to hurt the
[5:27:23] fifth largest economy in the
[5:27:25] world although this bill does
[5:27:27] marginal and temporary relief
[5:27:29] to one of the many industries
[5:27:30] negatively impacted by the
[5:27:31] dynamics decision the fact
[5:27:34] remains. That this bill
[5:27:36] represents yet again another
[5:27:37] car about for a favorite
[5:27:40] industry ab one seventy as one
[5:27:41] more example of the
[5:27:45] legislature's pickinginners
[5:27:47] and picking losers this measure
[5:27:48] sister bill ab five provided
[5:27:50] exemptions for many
[5:27:52] professions. That have the
[5:27:54] money to get lobbyist up here
[5:27:57] and spend money and get the
[5:27:59] desired outcome but it barely
[5:28:01] scratches the surface of all of
[5:28:03] the affected industries that
[5:28:05] are gonna be negatively
[5:28:08] impacted. By this bill.
[5:28:09] California businesses need a
[5:28:10] holistic approach to the
[5:28:11] problems created by the
[5:28:13] dynamics decision. We need a
[5:28:15] method applies to all
[5:28:16] industries in california not
[5:28:18] just those fortunate enough to
[5:28:21] get themselves added to the ab
[5:28:24] five car about trade. The fact
[5:28:25] that there's even a car about
[5:28:28] train perfectly demonstrates
[5:28:30] that the dynamax decision is
[5:28:33] wrong in other words. Of the
[5:28:35] author of ab tat ab one
[5:28:37] seventies twenty nine ten
[5:28:39] hearing I'm quoting her this is
[5:28:41] the first time I'd ever carried
[5:28:42] a bill that I am definitely
[5:28:45] opposed to I would be lying if
[5:28:45] I said this wasn't
[5:28:48] heartbreaking for me. This May
[5:28:50] be one of the few times I agree
[5:28:51] with the assembly
[5:28:53] appropriations chair ab one
[5:28:56] seventy. Breaks my heart as
[5:29:08] well just like the all powerful
[5:29:08] chair of the assembly
[5:29:08] appropriations committee I'm
[5:29:08] opposed to the policy. Behind
[5:29:08] the bill however. Because I am
[5:29:09] in support of legislation that
[5:29:09] helps businesses in the state
[5:29:10] of california. I urge you to
[5:29:13] vote yes on ab one seventy.
[5:29:16] Thank you senator also. This is
[5:29:19] very. Very confusing testimony
[5:29:25] sometimes. I rise to support
[5:29:28] this bill but I also rise to
[5:29:31] raise concerns I agree home
[5:29:34] port in the free press is an we
[5:29:36] also want to make sure as those
[5:29:38] businesses thrive at the
[5:29:39] workers to deliver those
[5:29:43] newspapers are given the proper
[5:29:43] worker protections and working
[5:29:46] conditions. His newspaper
[5:29:47] delivery carriers of the ones
[5:29:49] who wake up at two o'clock in
[5:29:51] the morning to make sure the
[5:29:52] papers are delivered by four
[5:29:55] am. They did not get days off
[5:29:57] the cars get damaged they must
[5:30:00] cover many miles and gas all at
[5:30:00] their own expense. So
[5:30:03] colleagues. I rise to support
[5:30:06] because this bill was amended
[5:30:08] to include a one year delay.
[5:30:10] From the dynamics requirements
[5:30:13] for newspaper carriers. Because
[5:30:16] of the one year I surprised to
[5:30:20] support and urge your support.
[5:30:22] Raza senator girl. Thank you
[5:30:25] Mister President we're so glad
[5:30:26] that the author is listen to
[5:30:28] the senate republican caucus in
[5:30:28] issue distillate for those
[5:30:30] newspaper industries whose
[5:30:32] livelihoods will be threatened
[5:30:35] by ab five but those
[5:30:36] independent contractors are not
[5:30:39] alone. The their individuals
[5:30:40] and other industries out there
[5:30:43] still seeking a carve out of ab
[5:30:44] five these included trucking
[5:30:45] industry including single truck
[5:30:48] owner operators brokers medical
[5:30:50] professions low professionals
[5:30:51] lab techs nurse
[5:30:53] anesthesiologists. Optometrists
[5:30:55] physical therapists respiratory
[5:30:57] therapist massage therapist
[5:30:59] social workers occupational sex
[5:31:01] therapist speech therapist
[5:31:03] behavioral serra but therapist
[5:31:04] truck drivers repair person
[5:31:06] caters taxi cab drivers
[5:31:08] register professional foresters
[5:31:09] license timber operators
[5:31:11] interpreter interpreters
[5:31:16] musicians rabbis franchisees.
[5:31:16] In franchise or it's just to
[5:31:21] name a few. That's why we
[5:31:21] brought forth today's
[5:31:22] amendments to this bill because
[5:31:23] we assn instead of picking
[5:31:27] winners and losers for this
[5:31:27] body in this legislature to
[5:31:27] create a delayed implementation
[5:31:28] for all industries across the
[5:31:29] board so that this bill can be
[5:31:31] worked out proprly. But a vote
[5:31:33] for this bill because it does
[5:31:34] to a one year deal it does
[5:31:36] provide a one year delay for
[5:31:38] our newspapers that desperately
[5:31:41] need it. But I want to
[5:31:42] challenge you to think about
[5:31:44] the fact that the intended
[5:31:46] target of this bill the gig
[5:31:49] economy bird left door dash.
[5:31:51] Let's see door dash uber eats
[5:31:54] postmasters x. Setter at. Those
[5:31:55] people are not even gonna be
[5:31:57] covered under this bill because
[5:31:59] they have a legitimate argument
[5:32:00] that hopefully will go to court
[5:32:03] and win about being a platform
[5:32:06] and not an employer you have
[5:32:08] people that access aid.
[5:32:11] Beautifully created platform
[5:32:13] that allows you to get online
[5:32:14] and figure out where people are
[5:32:16] requesting services and then
[5:32:18] gain resources by providing
[5:32:19] services the people that use
[5:32:21] the same platform so they're
[5:32:22] not even drivers these people
[5:32:24] don't even work for you bring
[5:32:25] left and someone fortunately
[5:32:27] they're probably a many a lot
[5:32:28] of people out there that are
[5:32:30] going to be hurt by this
[5:32:33] particular piece of legislation
[5:32:35] but I do applaud the author for
[5:32:36] the one year xtension for the
[5:32:38] newspaper industry because it's
[5:32:39] desperately needed and I would
[5:32:41] ask of for it a an aye vote on
[5:32:43] this to supporter newspaper
[5:32:44] friends. But these car about
[5:32:46] sperm are and the ones that are
[5:32:48] not the ones that are being

[5:42:02] applied overwhelmingly to low

[5:42:10] this is the most common sense
[5:42:11] enhancement and repealing it

[5:42:37] concerned about domestic
[5:42:39] violence and some issues that
[5:42:42] that take our that will not
[5:42:44] allow just returnees to pursue
[5:42:46] an ad eight a sentence
[5:42:47] enhancement for repeat
[5:42:49] offenders of domestic violence
[5:42:50] and that this chamber
[5:42:51] continually says that they want
[5:42:52] to protect women in these
[5:42:53] incidents encampments
[5:42:55] enhancements. Being taken away
[5:42:56] with this particular piece
[5:42:58] piece of legislation are not
[5:43:00] helpful for our district
[5:43:01] attorneys who continually to
[5:43:04] oppose this bill because they
[5:43:05] won't be able to add since
[5:43:07] encampments to enhancements to
[5:43:10] repeat offenders especially on
[5:43:11] domestic violence issues I.
[5:43:14] Urge a no vote. Thank you. Any

[5:43:18] on this item. Hearing seeing
[5:43:20] none sir winner to like to
[5:43:22] close I thank you thank you
[5:43:24] Mister President I would like
[5:43:26] to close and I we've been
[5:43:28] hearing this alive from the
[5:43:30] district attorney's and not the
[5:43:33] senator from. The minority
[5:43:35] leader to it's repeated at
[5:43:37] which is completely inaccurate
[5:43:40] there is a separate sentence
[5:43:42] enhancement that is only for
[5:43:44] repeat domestic violence
[5:43:46] offenders repeat domestic
[5:43:47] violence offenders receive a
[5:43:50] sentence on top a new has been
[5:43:52] on top of their sentence that
[5:43:53] is typically one two or three
[5:43:56] years longer. And in addition
[5:43:59] if there is great bodily injury
[5:44:01] as a result of that domestic
[5:44:02] violence there is an additional
[5:44:04] harsh enhancement on top of
[5:44:07] that so I wanted to express my
[5:44:08] disappointment at the district
[5:44:09] attorney's continue to spread
[5:44:11] this misinformation that the
[5:44:13] method that repealing this will
[5:44:15] mean no one has been for
[5:44:16] repeat. Domestic violence
[5:44:18] offenders there is a separate
[5:44:21] harsher enhancement only for
[5:44:23] people who are at repeat
[5:44:24] convictions for domestic
[5:44:26] violence the same is true of
[5:44:27] child abuse because they've all
[5:44:29] also spread that same

[6:02:10] Secretary please rate. Assembly
[6:02:12] bill ten sixty six by
[6:02:13] assemblymember gonzalez an
[6:02:15] accolade unemployment
[6:02:16] compensation and making a
[6:02:19] preparation there for. When
[6:02:20] you're ready thank you Mister
[6:02:25] President. Members we have an
[6:02:27] opportunity to do something
[6:02:29] today that we don't always have
[6:02:31] an opportunity to do we many
[6:02:33] times tip the scales in the
[6:02:36] favor of large corporations and
[6:02:38] large companies rarely do we
[6:02:40] ever get to tip the scales in
[6:02:42] the favor of workers today we
[6:02:45] have an opportunity to do that
[6:02:48] I rise 2% ab ten sixty six
[6:02:48] which would provide
[6:02:50] unemployment insurance for
[6:02:51] striking and locked out
[6:02:55] workers. Why is this important
[6:02:55] why should we tip the scales in
[6:02:58] favor of working people because
[6:03:00] we do so much for corporations
[6:03:02] we want corporations to be
[6:03:04] successful absolutely but we
[6:03:06] also want them to share their
[6:03:08] money and their profits with
[6:03:09] the people. That push the money
[6:03:11] up to them. We know that
[6:03:13] earlier this year actions last
[6:03:17] year the President Of the
[6:03:18] united states. Granted a tax
[6:03:21] cuts to corporations. And we
[6:03:23] were all told that that tax cut
[6:03:26] would trickle down to workers
[6:03:28] and that's not what happened we
[6:03:29] know that these corporations
[6:03:31] took that money and plowed back
[6:03:32] into their shareholders and the
[6:03:35] board members. I just want to
[6:03:36] give you a couple examples of
[6:03:37] what could have happened with
[6:03:39] that money cvs could have given
[6:03:41] every single one of their
[6:03:43] workers and eighteen thousand
[6:03:46] dollar raise but they didn't
[6:03:47] eighteen thousand dollars when
[6:03:49] you make minimum wage eighteen
[6:03:50] thousand dollars is life
[6:03:52] changing that can keep someone
[6:03:54] out of losing apartment. That
[6:03:56] can move a family out of a one
[6:03:58] bedroom home apartment into a
[6:04:00] three bedroom apartment. Home
[6:04:02] depot could have also given
[6:04:04] each one of their employees and
[6:04:04] eighteen thousand dollar race
[6:04:07] but they didn't mcdonald's
[6:04:08] could have given everyone of
[6:04:11] their workers worldwide a four
[6:04:12] thousand dollar reyes and that
[6:04:14] didn't happen because the money
[6:04:16] never trickles down to the
[6:04:17] workers the money stays with
[6:04:19] the corporations and stays with
[6:04:21] the shareholders and the board
[6:04:23] members. Your price and okay
[6:04:24] connie label what is this have
[6:04:26] to do with locked out workers
[6:04:27] let me tell you what it has to
[6:04:29] do with locked out workers this
[6:04:30] is very personal to me because
[6:04:32] as most of you know I was a
[6:04:37] labor union boss for many years
[6:04:38] and I love that job because I
[6:04:39] love representing workers
[6:04:41] because I know that when people
[6:04:43] have a job that can pay the
[6:04:45] bills. Help all the communities
[6:04:47] that we all live work and help
[6:04:48] the constituents that we
[6:04:51] represent in two thousand three
[6:04:54] it was a long time ago. We knew
[6:04:56] that bargaining was going to be
[6:04:58] different with the grocery
[6:05:00] stores are we represented the
[6:05:01] three big corporations
[6:05:05] albertsons ralphs vons. So what
[6:05:07] we did as they were union
[6:05:09] bosses is we went out and spoke
[6:05:10] to all of our members and we
[6:05:11] said he sent these are going to
[6:05:15] be. Tough negotiations. What
[6:05:22] you be ready. Right now you pay
[6:05:24] nothing your healthcare you're
[6:05:24] probably gonna have to start
[6:05:25] paying a twenty five dollar
[6:05:25] copay. And you don't remember
[6:05:26] said they said we get it we
[6:05:26] know this was before obamacare
[6:05:27] this is before we saw increases
[6:05:29] or decreases in health care.
[6:05:30] This is when we were at the
[6:05:30] bargaining table and we were
[6:05:32] seeing. Double digit increases
[6:05:33] in health care. The workers
[6:05:34] understood and they said we're
[6:05:37] ready we'll do what we need to
[6:05:37] do were happy to pay a little
[6:05:40] bit more. What we couldn't know
[6:05:44] as a nion at that time. Was at
[6:05:45] these three corporations were
[6:05:47] planning a strike. They were
[6:05:48] playing to put something on the
[6:05:50] table that would be so
[6:05:52] detrimental to these workers.
[6:05:53] That would leave them no choice
[6:05:56] but to go on strike. But we met
[6:05:57] with thirty nine bargaining
[6:06:00] sessions with these employers.
[6:06:02] And after thirty nine
[6:06:03] bargaining sessions.
[6:06:06] Unfortunately we called a
[6:06:07] strike and the members at all
[6:06:09] voted on this. And what people
[6:06:10] who don't work in the labor
[6:06:12] movement don't know. Is that
[6:06:13] when you have a multi
[6:06:16] bargaining. Unit you have each
[6:06:17] unit vote to go on strike but
[6:06:19] that unit doesn't know which
[6:06:20] one of them the strike might be
[6:06:21] called against. And we make
[6:06:23] that decision at the bargaining
[6:06:24] table and it's usually the
[6:06:26] employer that's the worst at
[6:06:27] the table in this case it was
[6:06:30] vaughn's up here it's safe way.
[6:06:31] And the reason they were the
[6:06:32] worst is because when we were
[6:06:34] at the table. Some of the
[6:06:35] comments they made were
[6:06:38] comments like this I'll never
[6:06:39] forget this woman su road
[6:06:41] check. And she said. It's not
[6:06:42] that we don't want that we
[6:06:44] can't afford to give pay raises
[6:06:45] we don't want to give pay
[6:06:47] raises because a monkey could
[6:06:49] do the job of all of our
[6:06:53] employees. You imagine that
[6:06:54] telling you thinking of your
[6:06:57] employees as monkeys. So we
[6:06:58] called the strike against
[6:07:01] bonds. On October sixth third
[6:07:02] of October eleventh of two
[6:07:05] thousand three. I within twelve
[6:07:07] hours albertsons and ralph had
[6:07:09] locked out all of the workers
[6:07:10] they retaliated against their
[6:07:13] workers. And within twenty four
[6:07:14] hours eight hundred fifty nine
[6:07:15] picket lines have been
[6:07:17] established in southern
[6:07:18] california and what would
[6:07:20] ultimately be the longest and
[6:07:23] most cut costly strike in the
[6:07:26] history of the united states.
[6:07:28] The three ceos bird dillon and
[6:07:31] johnston put out letters to all
[6:07:32] of their workers and they said
[6:07:35] we don't care strike as long as
[6:07:36] you want. The offer will never
[6:07:39] get better. But we kept hope
[6:07:41] alive the offer would get
[6:07:44] better and as the days and the
[6:07:46] weeks and the months wore on.
[6:07:47] It got harder and harder people
[6:07:49] lost their cars people lost
[6:07:52] their homes. In the third month
[6:07:54] of the strike members ran out
[6:07:56] of their benefits so for all of
[6:07:57] us who are healthy that was
[6:07:59] okay. But for the workers were
[6:08:02] battling cancer cancer I will
[6:08:04] never forget the I'll w. You
[6:08:05] the longshoremen's union
[6:08:07] stepped up. They found out
[6:08:09] every single member who had
[6:08:11] cancer and they paid their
[6:08:12] healthcare premiums to make
[6:08:14] sure that they wouldn't lose
[6:08:15] their medical benefits while
[6:08:17] they were battling cancer. But
[6:08:19] you know what district it
[6:08:20] blinded come down the picket
[6:08:22] lines did come down because the
[6:08:24] ofer did get better. On
[6:08:27] February twenty seventh of two
[6:08:28] thousand four after four and a
[6:08:30] half months this pick the
[6:08:33] picket lines came down. It's
[6:08:34] still sometimes hard for me to
[6:08:34] talk about it's very emotional
[6:08:37] because no one goes on strike
[6:08:38] unless they feel like they have
[6:08:40] absolutely nothing else to do.
[6:08:42] Our there's no other way out
[6:08:43] people don't give up their
[6:08:47] wages because they don't think
[6:08:48] that they just know there's no
[6:08:48] other way out their backs are
[6:08:51] to the wall. I look at the
[6:08:54] seventy thousand workers. Fifty
[6:08:55] thousand of them who were
[6:08:56] locked out of some of the
[6:08:58] bravest people I will ever
[6:09:00] know. And after the strike was
[6:09:01] over what the company said to
[6:09:06] us was. We plan to take a hit
[6:09:07] because we wanted to break the
[6:09:09] union. And what I never
[6:09:10] understood about that statement
[6:09:13] is when you break the union me
[6:09:14] as the President Of the union
[6:09:15] you're not breaking me. You're
[6:09:17] trying to break all the workers
[6:09:19] the people who work for you
[6:09:21] every day and make money if
[6:09:22] those workers don't show up to
[6:09:23] work these corporations don't
[6:09:25] make any money. So when you
[6:09:26] want to break the union you're
[6:09:28] not harming me you're harming
[6:09:29] the workers that are doing the
[6:09:31] job for you. Those companies
[6:09:34] were willing to lose two
[6:09:35] billion dollars an attempt to
[6:09:38] break the union attempted to
[6:09:43] retaliate. Against the workers.
[6:09:44] Ab ten sixty six would do. What
[6:09:45] tipped the scales. Just a
[6:09:48] little bit to help workers. So
[6:09:50] that if you were locked out you
[6:09:51] can receive unemployment
[6:09:54] benefits. Unemployment benefits
[6:09:56] are only 26% of your actual
[6:09:58] wages. If you're on strike
[6:10:00] after four weeks you would be
[6:10:02] entitled to receive
[6:10:04] unemployment benefits. So
[6:10:06] members. I just ask you today.
[6:10:08] We're always so willing to tip
[6:10:11] the scales in the favor of
[6:10:12] corporations. Who never help
[6:10:14] their workers. Today could we
[6:10:16] tip the scales in the favor of
[6:10:17] workers the people that we all
[6:10:20] represent they're trying to
[6:10:21] make ends meet. I respectfully
[6:10:25] ask for an aye vote. Any
[6:10:25] discussion debate on this items
[6:10:28] center stone. Thank you Mister
[6:10:31] President and colleagues and I.
[6:10:33] I sit here in amazement when I
[6:10:34] hear my colleague from chino
[6:10:36] say that can we once tipped the
[6:10:38] scales in the favor of unions
[6:10:40] and union workers. And not in
[6:10:43] favor of corporations. My
[6:10:47] friends this is just another.
[6:10:48] Another bill in the sequence of
[6:10:52] union. Bills they were saying
[6:10:53] part of the union caucus
[6:10:55] priorities and it's just kind
[6:10:58] of disconcerting to. Hear the
[6:11:01] vilification of corporate
[6:11:04] companies that do business in
[6:11:05] the state of california that
[6:11:08] contribute to us have been the
[6:11:08] fifth largest economy in the
[6:11:11] world. And you know it you talk
[6:11:14] about the greed of corporations
[6:11:15] well what do they do with their
[6:11:17] profits. Most of them are
[6:11:19] publicly held corporations and
[6:11:21] many of our senior citizens
[6:11:25] actually get dividends when
[6:11:25] those companies do well. They
[6:11:28] do well. And with the stresses
[6:11:30] that are senior citizens have
[6:11:32] today with social security
[6:11:34] which barely pays a-living
[6:11:38] wage and medicare supplements
[6:11:41] that they have to pay for they
[6:11:41] need this income so that they
[6:11:43] don't become homeless. In their
[6:11:49] golden years. Hero. I'll bet
[6:11:50] you there's not one person in
[6:11:53] here except me it is actually
[6:11:55] owned a business that made it
[6:11:58] union had unanimous loyalties
[6:12:00] and served in the private
[6:12:02] sector. Having twenty thousand.
[6:12:05] Union members. And while I was
[6:12:07] on the board of supervisors in
[6:12:09] the city of temecula. Never had
[6:12:14] one strike. Believe it or not.
[6:12:15] Contrary to my rhetoric in
[6:12:19] comments and marking the union
[6:12:22] caucus this past week I've had
[6:12:24] a very good relationship with
[6:12:27] labor and my twenty seven years
[6:12:29] of being an elected official.
[6:12:31] And in my years of owning my
[6:12:32] union pharmacies and having
[6:12:35] employees with very little turn
[6:12:36] around. Because there will
[6:12:38] taking care of. But my friends
[6:12:40] I must respectfully rise in
[6:12:43] opposition to this bill. My
[6:12:44] worry is that providing
[6:12:46] unemployment benefits to
[6:12:46] existing workers who choose to
[6:12:49] go on strike. We would be
[6:12:51] removing an incentive for the
[6:12:52] employees to come to the
[6:12:55] bargaining table and negotiate
[6:12:57] in good faith for the more.
[6:12:59] Unemployment insurance is not
[6:13:00] for workers that have
[6:13:03] voluntarily left a job. Ab ten
[6:13:05] sixty six goes beyond that. And
[6:13:07] provides these benefits to
[6:13:10] workers that are still employed.
[6:13:11] Unions already planned for
[6:13:13] financial assistance for
[6:13:14] striking members with striking
[6:13:17] accounts funded by union dues
[6:13:18] which always getting more
[6:13:20] expensive and never coming
[6:13:22] down. And special assessments.
[6:13:24] Well I will admit that this is
[6:13:25] a creative way for unions to
[6:13:26] eliminate the need to create a
[6:13:28] reserve for the striking
[6:13:30] members. Thereby freeing up
[6:13:32] much of their needed funds I
[6:13:34] just don't believe. The
[6:13:36] unemployment insurance program
[6:13:38] was established to boost the
[6:13:41] coffers of unions. This in all
[6:13:45] likelihood. As many as of the
[6:13:46] other pieces of union
[6:13:47] legislation that we seen this
[6:13:50] past week. Is in response to
[6:13:51] the janice decision and I know
[6:13:52] the unions are upset about the
[6:13:55] chance decision. And this is a
[6:13:57] way. For them to try to
[6:14:00] overcome. Their disdain. For
[6:14:03] that supreme court decision.
[6:14:06] Again let's reserve our
[6:14:07] employment funds for those that
[6:14:09] are truly unemployed. Have lost
[6:14:12] their jobs or been terminated.
[6:14:13] For those reasons I ask a no
[6:14:17] vote. Thank you any additional
[6:14:18] discussion debate on this item
[6:14:22] senator stern. Thank you Mister
[6:14:24] President members I wanted to
[6:14:28] add one. I wanted to add one
[6:14:31] pieces of information to this
[6:14:33] debate to the extent it's
[6:14:37] helpful to understand. The
[6:14:40] author's intent. A letter to
[6:14:42] the journal was negotiated last
[6:14:45] night. That is currently
[6:14:47] pending at the assembly desk
[6:14:49] should the bill will pass and
[6:14:51] be heard on concurrence and
[6:14:53] I'll just read permission to
[6:14:54] read from this letter to the
[6:14:57] journal. Permission granted
[6:15:00] okay a to ensure successful in
[6:15:02] the implementation of this
[6:15:04] legislation it is my intent to
[6:15:05] work with the administration
[6:15:09] and edt. To review data on the
[6:15:10] impacts of this policy change
[6:15:12] on the u. I. Programs.
[6:15:14] Including the interplay with
[6:15:15] any labor dispute related
[6:15:17] settlement agreements. And
[6:15:19] whether this policy change
[6:15:20] would impact fund's solvency in
[6:15:22] any way as well as other
[6:15:25] implementation details. Should
[6:15:29] the policy change under ab ten
[6:15:30] sixty six result in anything
[6:15:33] more than a negligible impact
[6:15:35] on the unemployment insurance
[6:15:37] fund it is my intent that
[6:15:39] additional legislative or
[6:15:42] regulatory action be psued to
[6:15:44] limit. Any adverse fiscal
[6:15:47] impacts on the fund. I know
[6:15:49] that this was a central issue
[6:15:51] of concerned in terms of the
[6:15:53] solvency of the fund and there
[6:15:56] are there competing sets of
[6:15:59] information about the impact of
[6:16:02] this legislation but I thought
[6:16:04] that clarifying the author's
[6:16:06] intent should it pass and
[6:16:09] arrive at the assembly would be
[6:16:09] helpful in making your
[6:16:13] decision. Thank you members. Do
[6:16:13] any additional discussion
[6:16:15] debates yes center moreau thank
[6:16:19] you sir thank you very much. I
[6:16:19] just want to make a few
[6:16:21] comments about. But the
[6:16:23] presentation of this bill as
[6:16:26] well as some other bills.
[6:16:27] Lincoln said that a house
[6:16:29] divided will fall and it's
[6:16:31] interesting when people make
[6:16:35] their-arguments on this floor.
[6:16:37] The pit a neighbor against
[6:16:38] neighbor friend against friend
[6:16:40] business against. Other
[6:16:42] businesses and industries just
[6:16:44] like ab five is a perfect
[6:16:46] example of that winners verses
[6:16:49] losers and now we pit employees
[6:16:51] against employers just to be
[6:16:52] able to get a bill through. And
[6:16:54] again the unions are doing
[6:16:56] damage to our country and our
[6:16:59] state I'm convinced that and
[6:17:01] this is becoming a union st and
[6:17:03] we will lose more jobs and
[6:17:05] counter that this bill as well
[6:17:08] as ab five. And again I think
[6:17:10] the point that I just wanna say
[6:17:13] is I just think the way the
[6:17:17] bill is presented it this body
[6:17:21] tends to. Pet. People against
[6:17:21] people so I spoke my piece
[6:17:24] thank you very much. Thank you
[6:17:24] any additional discussion of it
[6:17:27] on the side of. Xenon surly
[6:17:29] which ought to close thank you
[6:17:31] Mister President of I've I feel
[6:17:33] badly that two of the speakers
[6:17:34] to not listen to anything that
[6:17:37] I said. This is not about the
[6:17:38] genesis asian I was talking
[6:17:40] about an experience that
[6:17:42] happened sixteen you years ago
[6:17:44] well before the janice decision
[6:17:47] ever came into being. And I was
[6:17:50] not speaking about ab five and
[6:17:51] you know I'm not hitting anyone
[6:17:53] against each other I'm tying
[6:17:53] to make sure that people
[6:17:56] understand that working people
[6:17:58] are living around us every day
[6:17:59] that would working people don't
[6:18:02] succeed none of us succeed. And
[6:18:04] people you know I was in the
[6:18:07] labor movement for thirty years
[6:18:08] from the time I was a senior in
[6:18:09] high school until I took this
[6:18:12] job and in thirty years there
[6:18:14] was one strike. Is a massive
[6:18:16] strike but there was one strike
[6:18:17] because people don't take it
[6:18:20] lightly members do not choose
[6:18:23] to give up everything because-
[6:18:24] they think it's going to be
[6:18:30] easy. And in a win win. The
[6:18:31] call of my colleague from
[6:18:32] temecula talks about a union
[6:18:32] fund what's called a strike
[6:18:35] fund and yes we do you junior
[6:18:36] induced to put that away. But
[6:18:38] in my local union which was
[6:18:40] solvent and we were very frugal
[6:18:41] with our money we had two
[6:18:43] million dollars. We are never
[6:18:44] going to be able to treat
[6:18:46] compete with the corporation
[6:18:48] who set aside two billion
[6:18:50] dollars. To lose two million
[6:18:52] versus two billion. So again
[6:18:54] I'm just going to ask all of
[6:18:56] you think about tipping the
[6:18:58] scales towards workers today we
[6:19:00] don't mind practicing corporate
[6:19:01] welfare when we have
[6:19:03] corporations. They teach their
[6:19:05] employees how to go on welfare
[6:19:08] and how to go on food stamps we
[6:19:08] don't seem to have a problem
[6:19:12] with that. Let's do something
[6:19:12] for workers today I
[6:19:13] respectfully ask for an aye
[6:19:17] vote. Thank you all debate

[6:21:40] sector please rate. Assembly
[6:21:42] bill twelve a two by
[6:21:43] assemblymember chao an accolade
[6:21:46] to privacy. Jackson thank you
[6:21:48] mister President Colleagues
[6:21:50] this is a very straightforward
[6:21:52] measure to address an issue
[6:21:54] that affects every consumer in
[6:21:55] the state of california which
[6:21:58] is the buying and selling. Of
[6:22:00] our personal information last
[6:22:02] year we enacted the california
[6:22:04] consumer privacy act and in
[6:22:07] doing so this legislature gave
[6:22:07] californians many of the
[6:22:14] necessary. Thank you gave me a
[6:22:17] are last year we by enacting
[6:22:18] this legislation the california
[6:22:19] consumer privacy act the
[6:22:22] legislature gave californian
[6:22:25] many of the necessary tools to
[6:22:26] take charge of their personal
[6:22:29] information. Strting January
[6:22:30] one twenty twenty californians
[6:22:32] will be able to exercise our
[6:22:34] individual rights to monitor
[6:22:37] and control how are data is
[6:22:40] used sold. Or otherwise
[6:22:42] exchange but these rights are
[6:22:44] only as good as a consumers
[6:22:47] power to enforce them and a key
[6:22:48] component of taking charge is
[6:22:51] to simply know. What businesses
[6:22:52] are holding your personal
[6:22:55] information. To that end this
[6:22:56] bill seeks to ensure that data
[6:22:59] brokers. To find generally as
[6:23:01] businesses that are collecting
[6:23:03] and selling the personal
[6:23:05] information of consumers with
[6:23:06] whom they have no direct
[6:23:09] relationship. It will require
[6:23:10] that these data brokers
[6:23:12] register with the attorney
[6:23:13] general so we know who they
[6:23:16] are. The attorney general would
[6:23:17] then be required to create a
[6:23:19] registry and host that
[6:23:22] information on its website. By
[6:23:24] requiring data brokers to
[6:23:28] register with the state we can
[6:23:32] take a small legislative step.
[6:23:33] That imposes minimal burdens on
[6:23:34] the businesses that benefit
[6:23:34] from the exchange of our
[6:23:36] information and it power
[6:23:38] consumers to exercise their
[6:23:40] rights under the law with that
[6:23:41] I respectfully ask for your aye
[6:23:44] vote. Any description of it on
[6:23:46] this I don't senator to burke.
[6:23:47] Yeah I think it's a completely
[6:23:48] consistent with the underlying
[6:23:51] architecture and purpose in
[6:23:52] framework. Of the privacy act I
[6:23:55] ask your support. Thank you in
[6:23:56] addition is scripture to bet on
[6:23:59] this item. Xenon senator
[6:24:01] jackson's ought to close this
[6:24:03] thank you I agree I wish this
[6:24:05] were stronger I wish we had. A
[6:24:07] greater ability to know who
[6:24:09] these data brokers are because
[6:24:10] you're not people with whom we
[6:24:12] have a direct relationship but
[6:24:14] this is a good start to require
[6:24:16] that the data brokers who do in
[6:24:19] fact take and use and sell our
[6:24:21] information. At least have to
[6:24:22] register with the attorney
[6:24:24] general so that we can then go
[6:24:27] from there to try to find out
[6:24:28] who they are and what they're
[6:24:30] doing with that information
[6:24:31] without I would respectfully
[6:24:33] ask for your aye vote.

[7:34:37] relating to recycling. Centers
[7:34:41] skinner. Thank you Mister
[7:34:44] President members. This bill.
[7:34:46] Helps address the fact that our
[7:34:48] recycling markets have
[7:34:50] collapsed due to the countries
[7:34:52] in asia that we used to rely on
[7:34:54] to sell all of our recycling
[7:34:55] products are not buying them
[7:34:58] any longer. And so instead what
[7:35:01] we expected to recycle are
[7:35:05] filling our landfills this is a.
[7:35:07] Bill that sends a market signal.
[7:35:10] That will benefit our in state
[7:35:13] plastic bottle of manufacturers
[7:35:16] to help us close the route loop
[7:35:19] in recycling. It establishes a
[7:35:21] time frame for bottled beverage
[7:35:23] manufacturers to achieve a
[7:35:25] minimum recycled content. The
[7:35:28] amendments that removed the low
[7:35:32] the 75% content have pulled off
[7:35:34] the following opposition the
[7:35:35] cal chamber is no longer

[8:04:58] Members were ready to take up

[8:05:06] eighteen by senator jackson.
[8:05:07] Senator jackson's ready Mister
[8:05:10] Secretary please read. Assembly
[8:05:12] bill two eighteen by assembly
[8:05:14] member assembly member gonzalez
[8:05:15] and act really to childhood
[8:05:16] sexual assault senator
[8:05:18] jackson's. Thank you Mister
[8:05:19] President good morning
[8:05:23] colleagues today I present to
[8:05:26] you ab twenty two eighteen. By
[8:05:29] assembly member gonzalez this
[8:05:30] measure would extend the civil
[8:05:33] stature it'll limitations for
[8:05:34] victims of childhood sexual
[8:05:37] assault. For mage twenty six to
[8:05:39] age forty and in cases of the
[8:05:42] late discovery from three years
[8:05:45] after the discovery to five the
[8:05:46] bill would also increase the
[8:05:48] amount of damages recoverable
[8:05:50] in instances where there was a
[8:05:52] cover up. Which led to the
[8:05:55] abuse and allow for short three
[8:05:57] year window for past victims
[8:05:59] who a slip through the cracks.
[8:06:01] We know in the research clearly
[8:06:03] shows that it can take decades
[8:06:06] for most victims to be ready to
[8:06:08] come forward to actually even
[8:06:10] to recognize that this event
[8:06:11] which shape in suppressing this
[8:06:14] horrific event or events. Had
[8:06:15] they been suppressing for
[8:06:18] decades were in fact up part of
[8:06:21] their lives and impacted a
[8:06:23] great deal of their lives. It
[8:06:25] is then when they come forward
[8:06:27] but unfortunately the statute
[8:06:30] does allow them to be able to
[8:06:35] seek redress. So this denies
[8:06:36] justice to victims it allows
[8:06:37] the perpetrators of the abuse
[8:06:39] in those complicit to continue
[8:06:41] praying on children or
[8:06:43] otherwise turning a blind eye
[8:06:45] we all of heard the stories.
[8:06:47] And the power that these
[8:06:50] individuals have had over these
[8:06:52] usually youngsters bringing
[8:06:55] this abuse in the shame and-
[8:06:57] difficulties connecting with
[8:06:59] life and being able to live a
[8:07:00] normal life. Until they go
[8:07:03] through therapy. Which can take
[8:07:06] some time so the last time
[8:07:07] california open the window for
[8:07:12] old cases. In twenty two
[8:07:12] thousand three nine hundred
[8:07:13] victims came forward the
[8:07:15] exposed over two hundred and
[8:07:18] fifty child molesters and save
[8:07:19] thousands of children from
[8:07:21] becoming future targets.
[8:07:22] However we know there are many
[8:07:24] who are still out there. Who
[8:07:25] would not made the connection
[8:07:27] between their abuse and current
[8:07:29] psychological injury at the
[8:07:31] time. Of the opening when they
[8:07:33] would have qualified to be able
[8:07:34] to bring these cases because of
[8:07:36] our how our laws currently
[8:07:38] written they will never have a
[8:07:39] chance to come forward and
[8:07:41] pursue legal crane claims. We
[8:07:43] know we can never a race the
[8:07:45] pain but this measure will
[8:07:47] expand access to justice for
[8:07:48] victims of childhood sexual
[8:07:50] assault by granting the more
[8:07:52] time to pursue their legal
[8:07:54] remedies. This hopefully will
[8:07:56] help expose perpetrators who
[8:07:57] have been going on for years
[8:08:00] and de decades abusing our most
[8:08:02] vulnerable youth. And this will
[8:08:05] hold them accountable I
[8:08:06] respectfully ask for your aye
[8:08:12] vote. Any description of the
[8:08:13] bait on the side on senator
[8:08:14] morlock. Thank you Mister
[8:08:18] President. I agree with the
[8:08:20] poor manager that are writing
[8:08:23] the wrongs of past since is a
[8:08:23] right justin and just thing to
[8:08:27] do. And concur that the
[8:08:28] psychological illness caused
[8:08:31] by. Childhood sexual abuses is
[8:08:34] not disputed. This harm
[8:08:35] requires expensive and time
[8:08:37] consuming counseling and
[8:08:38] including for some spiritual
[8:08:41] counseling colleagues there is
[8:08:43] nothing more frustrating than a
[8:08:45] self inflicted wound all the
[8:08:48] more so if it is intentional.
[8:08:50] Ab two one eight exposes
[8:08:51] california strap school
[8:08:53] districtthe potential lawsuit
[8:08:53] settlements that are not
[8:08:55] covered by insurance and in the
[8:08:58] remote chance that they are.
[8:09:00] We'll see insurance premium
[8:09:00] skyrocket. Or carriers
[8:09:03] disappear. We're already seeing
[8:09:05] that with the homeowners in w.
[8:09:09] You aye areas. Of california's
[8:09:10] nine hundred and forty audited
[8:09:13] school districts only 9510%
[8:09:14] have positive unrestricted
[8:09:17] depositions what further cuts
[8:09:19] will have to be made. We should
[8:09:21] not should the school districts
[8:09:24] in the foot I urge a no vote.
[8:09:25] On ab two one eight thank you
[8:09:28] Mister President. The further
[8:09:29] discussion or debate on this
[8:09:31] item center skinner. Thank you
[8:09:33] Mister President members I
[8:09:34] speak in strong support of this
[8:09:39] item. As a person who was
[8:09:42] sexually abused as a child. And
[8:09:45] while I never forgot about that
[8:09:50] abuse I. Was on able to deal
[8:09:54] with it or. Get myself the
[8:09:59] therapy I needed I dispirited I
[8:10:00] was not able to do so until I
[8:10:02] was adult and in fact what
[8:10:05] triggered. My ability to
[8:10:08] confront it. Was when my own
[8:10:11] daughter became the age that I
[8:10:12] was when my bi
[8:10:15] yu started. The
[8:10:18] data shows. That most people
[8:10:23] who were abused as children. It
[8:10:27] happens because they they are
[8:10:27] taken advantage of by someone
[8:10:29] who they trust and they're not
[8:10:30] in a setting in a householder
[8:10:33] other setting where they feel
[8:10:37] they are able. To convey what
[8:10:38] happened to them and be
[8:10:41] protected. And so you carry
[8:10:43] that with yu which keeps you
[8:10:45] from being able to convey it
[8:10:47] and thus act to protect
[8:10:49] yourself until the moment that
[8:10:52] you are either in adequate
[8:10:54] therapy. Or you break. That can
[8:10:58] be. Thirty forty fifty years
[8:11:03] after the abuse. So to deny
[8:11:06] anyone from being able to seek
[8:11:08] the appropriate damages to deal
[8:11:10] with the consequences of that
[8:11:12] abuse is wrong I stand in
[8:11:17] strong support thank you. It is
[8:11:20] still testimony senate bill.
[8:11:23] Yes this this sir issue is been
[8:11:24] legislated in the past I%
[8:11:27] introduced the bill twice
[8:11:29] vetoed twice by governor jerry
[8:11:32] brown I hope our new governor
[8:11:34] has a different opinion about
[8:11:36] this issue and I your support
[8:11:38] of this this this is a long
[8:11:39] time coming with we've been
[8:11:41] trying to get this bill
[8:11:44] establish for the last. Eight
[8:11:47] or nine years and arjun aye
[8:11:48] vote on it it was a bi partisan
[8:11:51] support we put on the
[8:11:52] governor's desk I think two or
[8:11:54] maybe three times and it was
[8:11:58] always vetoed so let's get this
[8:11:59] bill signed by the governor.
[8:12:02] Arjun aye vote. Thank you any
[8:12:04] additional witnesses. Testimony
[8:12:08] and this on this issue. Here
[8:12:08] nineteen nine center jackson
[8:12:10] would you like to close this
[8:12:10] thank you you know this is a
[8:12:15] horrific. Crime that is been
[8:12:16] perpetuated on for too many of
[8:12:19] our young people. With the
[8:12:20] complicity of groups like the
[8:12:26] church. And it is beyond time
[8:12:28] that we made it very clear that
[8:12:31] these victims deserve their day
[8:12:33] in court deserve their
[8:12:36] vindication and their trust us.
[8:12:38] It is a beyond times that we
[8:12:40] make it very clear that we're
[8:12:41] not going to condone or
[8:12:43] tolerate this behavior going
[8:12:45] forward. This bill helps those
[8:12:47] victims try to heal and get the
[8:12:50] justice they so rightly deserve
[8:12:50] and with that I would
[8:12:51] respectfully ask for your aye

[8:35:14] one an axe the california
[8:35:15] environmental public health and
[8:35:16] workers defense active twenty
[8:35:16] nineteen. The assembly
[8:35:17] amendments resolve numerous
[8:35:18] concerns over the clean air
[8:35:19] clean water worker safety an
[8:35:20] endangered species provisions
[8:35:22] of the bill. As amended sb one
[8:35:23] makes federal baseline
[8:35:24] standards for environmental and
[8:35:27] worker protection enforceable
[8:35:29] as a matter of state law only
[8:35:31] when the current administration

[8:35:47] some place the same standards
[8:35:48] that have been in pace and in
[8:35:50] some cases for decades. Before
[8:35:52] the arrival of the new
[8:35:54] administration in washington
[8:35:55] and the roll backs that they
[8:35:58] have pushed forward sb one is
[8:35:59] supported by a broad cross
[8:36:01] section of public health worker
[8:36:04] safety in organized labor
[8:36:05] business. And environmental
[8:36:11] groups. I know that there have
[8:36:12] been lake concerns raised by my
[8:36:13] friends in the water in the ag
[8:36:14] community over the potential
[8:36:15] impact of the bill. On the
[8:36:17] voluntary settlement agreements
[8:36:18] and other actions to protect
[8:36:19] bill to water. I would direct
[8:36:21] my colleagues to page thirteen
[8:36:23] line nineteen of the bill which
[8:36:25] is expressly states that the
[8:36:29] bill does not affect the
[8:36:29] process by which those
[8:36:32] agreements are entered into. I
[8:36:33] acknowledge that this is a big
[8:36:35] and important measure I think
[8:36:36] we a living in times that
[8:36:37] demand our urgent action to
[8:36:39] protect our state's natural
[8:36:40] resources our environment and
[8:36:43] worker safety. I would ask for
[8:36:44] your five vote in the
[8:36:47] concurrence of the assembly
[8:36:52] amendments thank you. Thank you
[8:36:53] any description of it on this
[8:36:58] issue center nielsen. This
[8:37:00] President Ladies journal of the
[8:37:02] senate I have to lose
[8:37:03] vigorously oppose this
[8:37:05] legislation is in a sense I
[8:37:06] have been serving. In the state
[8:37:08] legislature. It's rolling back
[8:37:10] twenty years of progress
[8:37:10] towards ending the water wars
[8:37:12] in california. And will
[8:37:16] reignite those water wars. It
[8:37:18] ignores provisions of law that
[8:37:21] indicate that human beings have
[8:37:21] a water right in the state of
[8:37:25] california. Seems to be a
[8:37:30] hysteric reaction to things
[8:37:30] that have gone on in washington
[8:37:37] dc. And if that's it. It's
[8:37:38] going to last a lot longer.
[8:37:42] Meeting. The deficiencies and
[8:37:46] the harm done here. Then a
[8:37:50] federal administration. It will
[8:37:54] do nothing to heal. Or to help
[8:37:55] provide a water around to the
[8:37:57] needy areas of california or to
[8:38:01] replenish our groundwater. Or
[8:38:10] to greece is. On the moment I
[8:38:14] I'm. On the moment in the
[8:38:22] comments the. Big of the that
[8:38:28] was that are here. They are on
[8:38:30] the amendmentsere senator.
[8:38:35] Just make sure. Thank you of
[8:38:39] senator dodd senator nelson v.
[8:38:40] Just be germane to the bill to
[8:38:41] speak to the member to
[8:38:42] appreciate it thank you that's
[8:38:45] what I'm doing. Nothing in that
[8:38:46] that is in this bill that has
[8:38:50] been amended. Will do anything
[8:38:53] but fanning the flames. Of the
[8:38:54] water wars and make it worse.
[8:38:58] In california. The bill read a
[8:39:04] few. Sections here if I May.
[8:39:06] That creates private rights of
[8:39:15] action. And many organizations
[8:39:17] have come to the legislature
[8:39:19] expressing their concerns.
[8:39:21] Asking for some accommodations
[8:39:26] of those concerns. And I would
[8:39:27] say that the backs of been
[8:39:31] rudely turned upon them. And
[8:39:33] not accepted any suggestions to
[8:39:36] improve this legislation. That
[8:39:40] have been in good faith. What
[8:39:42] talk about vuntary settlement
[8:39:43] agreements what I'm talking
[8:39:47] about is in the future. And but
[8:39:48] based on provisions here in and
[8:39:53] as amended. Who is going to
[8:39:56] dare. Have voluntary agreements.
[8:39:58] Because they cannot trust the
[8:39:59] state that's one of the biggest
[8:40:00] problems in this state and
[8:40:03] nation today. The citizens
[8:40:04] cannot trust government to keep
[8:40:08] its word. At the agricultural
[8:40:10] industry through the valleys of
[8:40:12] california will be agree justly
[8:40:16] harmed by this. One of the most
[8:40:19] sweeping attacks. On the
[8:40:20] agricultural industry that is
[8:40:24] so dear to me. That I would
[8:40:25] have experienced in my lifetime
[8:40:28] is embodied. This legislation
[8:40:35] as amended. I ask I in treat.
[8:40:37] For the good of the generations
[8:40:39] this isn't about now this is
[8:40:39] about your children and your
[8:40:44] grandchildren. In two thousand
[8:40:46] and nine when we're negotiating
[8:40:46] a new water plan for the state
[8:40:50] of california. That was much on
[8:40:51] our minds those who did the
[8:40:54] negotiation. What would be the
[8:40:55] water future for the state
[8:41:01] everybody. Not just groups and
[8:41:02] not just water for fish water
[8:41:06] for everybody. In all species.
[8:41:10] This will not get us there. It
[8:41:13] is ill founded. A roll back the
[8:41:16] progress that we have made. And
[8:41:18] here we go reigniting. The
[8:41:27] water wars. Any additional.
[8:41:28] Version of it on the side on
[8:41:28] senator borders. Thank you
[8:41:35] Mister President. I think so
[8:41:38] many of us good. Could find
[8:41:41] issues with some of the
[8:41:44] provisions in this legislation
[8:41:46] soul are probably just pick one
[8:41:48] or two. F. I made direct
[8:41:54] questions to. The author.
[8:41:56] Senator actions we take
[8:41:59] question yes the abortion so
[8:42:00] representing the central valley
[8:42:02] I think you've heard from the
[8:42:03] impassioned words of my
[8:42:06] colleague waters a very
[8:42:08] significant dynamic in our
[8:42:09] region for obvious obvious
[8:42:11] reasons. In one of the things
[8:42:13] that we've had a very difficult
[8:42:16] time dealing with is of course
[8:42:21] the endangered species act. And
[8:42:22] one of the provisions in here
[8:42:23] that concerns me greatly is the
[8:42:28] idea that. The fish and game
[8:42:31] commission could adopt
[8:42:36] regulations that add species to
[8:42:40] that are on the endangered list.
[8:42:41] Better federal action results
[8:42:42] in a decrease of protection so
[8:42:44] my question to you is would it
[8:42:49] not be. Effective to monitor
[8:42:52] the environmental concerns by
[8:42:55] bring back any statutory
[8:42:58] request that doesn't create a
[8:42:59] baseline as this piece
[8:43:03] legislation does. Given the
[8:43:06] smelled issue the salmon issue
[8:43:07] the dynamic and the changing in
[8:43:11] the evolving science that this
[8:43:13] kind of freezes in time would
[8:43:15] not be more effective to bring
[8:43:18] back any these considerations
[8:43:21] to the legislature rather than.
[8:43:26] Are creating a baseline. The
[8:43:28] way this legislation is
[8:43:28] proposed thank you for the
[8:43:30] question and add to my
[8:43:32] lleagues there were many many
[8:43:34] amendments I in in. The process
[8:43:37] of six policy hearings into
[8:43:40] appropriations committees we
[8:43:42] sought to address a number of
[8:43:44] those concerns the baseline hi
[8:43:46] I mean we are not changing
[8:43:48] regulations we are adopting the
[8:43:50] baseline we've added language
[8:43:53] in the bill. To address the
[8:43:55] best possible science that is
[8:43:55] the concern that has been
[8:43:58] expressed again and again we
[8:44:00] added that into the language of
[8:44:02] the bill at the request as we
[8:44:05] did. Negotiations through the
[8:44:10] process. Fishing game his given
[8:44:12] discretion but it they have to
[8:44:13] go through the regulatory
[8:44:17] process to do any change we are
[8:44:19] trying to have a baseline set
[8:44:21] of standards we also talked
[8:44:23] about into my other colleagues.
[8:44:24] The voluntary settlement
[8:44:25] agreements which gets to the
[8:44:28] issue of your the bottom line
[8:44:29] of your question which is
[8:44:32] water. This bill doesn't impact
[8:44:34] the voluntary cell agreements
[8:44:36] we put it into the into the
[8:44:46] language of. The bill it is so.
[8:44:48] We really and truly did work in
[8:44:50] good faith to try to address
[8:44:51] those concerns. It's for in
[8:44:54] terms of the discretion that
[8:44:55] fish and game. Is given it's
[8:44:57] frozen until fishing game is
[8:44:58] able to review it's not
[8:45:01] permanent so we are continuing
[8:45:01] to do the review that's needed
[8:45:03] to be done. And we are trying
[8:45:04] to put into place the
[8:45:06] protections that you have
[8:45:06] outlined in terms of the
[8:45:10] voluntary sell agreement. As it
[8:45:11] relates also to the endangered
[8:45:16] species act let me make May be
[8:45:17] helpful follow up on this if I
[8:45:21] man Mister President. When I
[8:45:23] first moved to when I first
[8:45:24] moved to fresno I had the
[8:45:25] opportunity to clerk. For a
[8:45:27] federal judge who is regarded
[8:45:30] nationally as-the water judge.
[8:45:31] In one of the things that we
[8:45:32] experienced when we went
[8:45:34] through all the litigations
[8:45:36] involving. The endangered
[8:45:38] species act was the biological
[8:45:42] opinions. And what we realize
[8:45:44] over time is that the gre
[8:45:45] latitude the regulatory
[8:45:48] authorities have in determining
[8:45:49] their interpretation of
[8:45:51] biological opinions which is
[8:45:53] why the central valley has
[8:45:56] spent years lobbying. The
[8:45:59] federal authorities to re visit
[8:46:03] their scientific interpretation.
[8:46:05] And it is. Unfortunately come
[8:46:06] to little avail but what I'm
[8:46:09] concerned most about this is
[8:46:11] that if we do succeed at the
[8:46:13] federal level we will then lose
[8:46:16] again at the state level. And
[8:46:18] that is what I'm terribly
[8:46:19] concerned about what this
[8:46:21] legislation is that we have
[8:46:24] fought for a decade or more
[8:46:25] trying to get them to
[8:46:28] understand. That the human
[8:46:31] element is a key component in
[8:46:34] understanding the environmental
[8:46:37] concerns whereas before it was
[8:46:38] only about let's say a delta
[8:46:40] smelt. But we were trying to
[8:46:41] make certain that there was a
[8:46:43] human element that was
[8:46:44] calculated in the environmental
[8:46:49] impact. So now after a decade a
[8:46:50] decade of fighting at the
[8:46:51] federal level we could very
[8:46:53] well see ourselves winning in
[8:46:55] washington and then losing in
[8:46:58] california. In I don't know
[8:47:02] what. Just to come here and say
[8:47:04] we should oppose this I think
[8:47:08] is overly simplistic I think
[8:47:10] that there are there are deep
[8:47:12] systemic and fundamental by
[8:47:16] errors in this legislation that
[8:47:17] by virtue of that baseline on
[8:47:20] does all the political work
[8:47:21] that we have seen at the
[8:47:23] federal level that could be of
[8:47:24] great value to the agricultural
[8:47:27] industry and in all those
[8:47:29] interested parties involving
[8:47:33] the water wars. So all in all
[8:47:38] in my comment my comments here.
[8:47:39] With one last question to you
[8:47:41] if I May. There was in the
[8:47:42] media reports that democrat
[8:47:44] federal representatives
[8:47:46] feinstein in others had
[8:47:48] expressed grave concerns about
[8:47:51] sb one. Have you address those
[8:47:52] concerns or do you have a
[8:47:56] response to. The letter that
[8:47:56] was sent to your office
[8:48:02] regarding sb one. Thank you.
[8:48:05] Well hi I would say. The
[8:48:08] discussions around the
[8:48:10] endangered species act our as
[8:48:15] it relates to water flows and
[8:48:17] the voluntary settle agreements
[8:48:19] has been long and discussion
[8:48:21] and settled at at the state
[8:48:24] level and the federal level
[8:48:25] until we got a new
[8:48:29] administration. These are these
[8:48:30] are protections that have been
[8:48:34] in place for. Forty years so I
[8:48:40] will say. We a the but the
[8:48:43] point is to be able to continue
[8:48:46] to protect endangered species
[8:48:48] that was the intent of the
[8:48:51] federal administrations rolling
[8:48:52] out that we have lived under
[8:48:54] for quite awhile. Our delegate
[8:48:56] and there are people in that
[8:48:58] our representatives at the
[8:48:59] federal level and our
[8:49:01] delegation that want to see
[8:49:03] those standards rolled back to
[8:49:05] this is work that we have done
[8:49:07] over a long period of time at
[8:49:09] the state to protect some
[8:49:10] endangered species and the
[8:49:13] delta eco system. I don't see
[8:49:15] that you find this issue being
[8:49:17] determined along political
[8:49:20] lines it's determined along
[8:49:22] some geographical lines as it
[8:49:24] relates to the issues and
[8:49:27] concerns about water flows. So
[8:49:29] we have debated these issues
[8:49:30] time and time again at the
[8:49:35] state level. And so I do
[8:49:41] believe that. This is an
[8:49:42] attempt to rollback.
[8:49:43] Protections that we put in
[8:49:45] place for our natural resources
[8:49:46] are endangered species so that
[8:49:48] is the point of a large part of
[8:49:56] this legislation. I eight
[8:49:57] democrats and republicans and
[8:49:59] democrats don't always agree I
[8:50:01] mean if it if it is a political
[8:50:02] if you're saying this is a
[8:50:04] political thing again see
[8:50:06] administration obviously it
[8:50:08] isn't it is about. The
[8:50:09] protection immigrant rights
[8:50:15] disagree. Hi and in terms of
[8:50:17] addressing that issue rather
[8:50:19] than have crossed debate. I
[8:50:21] would just say that the very
[8:50:22] reason this legislation is
[8:50:25] necessary is to protect. Our
[8:50:28] resources and maybe five there
[8:50:31] are of political considerations
[8:50:33] by democrats and republicans
[8:50:35] who disagree but these things
[8:50:37] have been debated. Of for well
[8:50:39] over forty years in terms of
[8:50:41] clean air clean water our
[8:50:42] natural resources the
[8:50:44] endangered species act and the
[8:50:45] let the point of this
[8:50:48] legislation is to. Keep those
[8:50:55] protections in place. Or thank
[8:50:58] you very much for answering the
[8:50:58] my inquiries all my final
[8:51:02] comment is. If ever there was a
[8:51:04] piece of legislation that I
[8:51:04] think could benefit from more
[8:51:06] analysis in more discussn I
[8:51:08] think you'd be sb one. This
[8:51:11] would be a perfect candidate if
[8:51:12] thisere rolled over into the
[8:51:15] next legislative cycle. I leave
[8:51:17] that to the vote count at the
[8:51:19] end but I think more
[8:51:21] consultation especially from
[8:51:22] folks in the central valley
[8:51:25] could make this a better piece
[8:51:26] of legislation with more work
[8:51:32] thank you. Thank you sinister.
[8:51:35] Thank you Mister President. I
[8:51:36] do appreciate the line of
[8:51:38] questioning in the responses
[8:51:39] the water chair the senate I
[8:51:41] did want to weigh in is join
[8:51:43] author this legislation. The
[8:51:45] voluntary settlement agreements
[8:51:47] that are currently. Under way
[8:51:48] being negotiated that we've
[8:52:00] actually appropriated funding
[8:52:01] for in our budget this cycle. I
[8:52:01] believe are not only critical
[8:52:01] elements of our states water
[8:52:02] strategy but. They are not
[8:52:06] impeded by this legislation.
[8:52:09] What it really comes down to is
[8:52:10] whether you trust this
[8:52:14] administration to implement
[8:52:14] this legislation in a
[8:52:16] meaningful fashion. That up
[8:52:20] hold those agreements. Bit
[8:52:21] interprets the baseline
[8:52:26] standards and that. Interprets
[8:52:27] existing law which already
[8:52:29] applies the california
[8:52:31] endangered species act for
[8:52:32] instance to the central valley
[8:52:36] project. There is plenty of
[8:52:37] discretion under existing law
[8:52:40] and of sb one passes to make
[8:52:42] sure that we can find smart
[8:52:44] negotiated solutions to
[8:52:45] ensuring that central valley as
[8:52:49] adequate water supply. That
[8:52:49] agriculture is put in a
[8:52:51] sustainable position. But that
[8:52:54] we also don't under cut. An
[8:52:59] extinct our most sacred
[8:53:01] resources that we have here in
[8:53:03] the california ecosystem. We
[8:53:04] didn't want to get put in this
[8:53:07] position. We got forced into
[8:53:12] this legislation. And you May
[8:53:16] call politics. But
[8:53:19] unfortunately washington. Has
[8:53:19] decided to single out this
[8:53:22] state. And try to make an
[8:53:27] example out of us. And this
[8:53:30] legislation is not intended to
[8:53:31] poke this administration in the
[8:53:35] I'd. But it didn't intended is
[8:53:37] status uncertainty to say that
[8:53:40] we can't afford to go backwards.
[8:53:42] And the track we were on was
[8:53:44] working and is still can work
[8:53:45] and I believe this governor can
[8:53:46] make this legislation work. If
[8:53:50] they put their minds to so I'll
[8:53:52] be supporting this measure
[8:53:53] today and I do appreciate the
[8:53:55] pro tem's. Courageous
[8:53:57] leadership in bringing this
[8:53:58] forward in a tough conversation
[8:54:01] that. We never wanted to have
[8:54:04] to have in the first place. By
[8:54:05] this insurance policy for the
[8:54:06] greater good of the state's
[8:54:10] natural resources. And
[8:54:11] agriculture resources is
[8:54:17] critically needed at this time.
[8:54:19] Thank you center y. Cosby. Is
[8:54:21] risen aye to rise in support of
[8:54:22] this measure in and I echo my
[8:54:24] good friend from southern
[8:54:24] california we didn't bring this
[8:54:27] on into our set upon ourselves
[8:54:29] this is brought to us in I
[8:54:31] would remind members that this
[8:54:35] measure sunsets in twenty
[8:54:38] twenty five and-my reading of
[8:54:42] the floor analysis talks about
[8:54:43] the-extra insurance you know.
[8:54:45] Add to legal interpretation
[8:54:47] provision regarding the
[8:54:51] definitions of waste and water
[8:54:53] of the state and-the power or
[8:54:54] the authority that the
[8:54:56] department of fish and game has
[8:54:58] sos not to affect existing
[8:55:04] interpretations we are simply.
[8:55:09] Keeping the status quo and as a.
[8:55:11] Self proclaimed progressive and
[8:55:12] liberal in the city california
[8:55:13] I thinks the keeping the status
[8:55:14] quo is not a big stretch and I
[8:55:17] would urge an aye vote. Thank
[8:55:19] you senator growth thank you
[8:55:20] Mister President I respectfully
[8:55:22] rise in opposition of this bill
[8:55:24] if this bill passes the senate
[8:55:25] with its current amendments the
[8:55:26] only hope for farmers and the
[8:55:28] people who need food and fiber
[8:55:28] is governor's some to veto this
[8:55:31] bill. This problem policies
[8:55:33] purposely designed to get even
[8:55:35] with the administration for
[8:55:35] striving to bring commonsense
[8:55:37] back to clement water. A
[8:55:40] science. And it's been stated
[8:55:42] by the author and also another
[8:55:45] member that spoke. That this is
[8:55:47] forty years of this policy in
[8:55:49] protection is been in place for
[8:55:50] forty years but there's new
[8:55:51] science out there that's
[8:55:53] available. And that's why these
[8:55:55] decisions were made. Sb one
[8:55:57] with these amendments freezes
[8:55:58] environmental science regarding
[8:56:00] how best produced a rebound of
[8:56:02] an endangered species and non
[8:56:03] indigenous fish. In the delta
[8:56:06] bay area ignores at least
[8:56:06] fifteen years worth of new
[8:56:08] science and data. The science
[8:56:10] will be made permanent with
[8:56:13] this be one twenty twenty five.
[8:56:15] For the single fish sb one with
[8:56:16] the amendments. Will continue
[8:56:18] to practice preventing fresh
[8:56:19] water from being captured and
[8:56:21] stored for many families and
[8:56:23] farmers. Before it flows into
[8:56:25] the pacific ocean. During the
[8:56:26] last drought it led to almost
[8:56:27] five hundred thousand acres of
[8:56:28] farmland coming out of
[8:56:31] production. In twenty 5% of
[8:56:33] mandatory water rushing for
[8:56:35] families. With people in the
[8:56:37] central valley and my colleague
[8:56:39] and I serve. That don't have
[8:56:40] running water in the porter
[8:56:42] biliary and then also there's a
[8:56:43] to lee tribe down there they
[8:56:45] has to bring a truck to water
[8:56:47] into their-the people that
[8:56:49] they serve because water shut
[8:56:51] off. Additional cuts to the
[8:56:52] water supply in increase water
[8:56:55] weights will continue. To rise.
[8:56:56] Sb one with the amendments
[8:56:57] prevent surface water
[8:56:59] deliveries necessary to comply
[8:56:59] with the sustainable ground
[8:57:02] water. Management act which was
[8:57:04] passed a few years ago which
[8:57:05] mandates water extracted to the
[8:57:07] pumping. Must be replaced with
[8:57:09] an equal amount of rainfall. A
[8:57:11] and it with an equal amount and
[8:57:12] rainfall is not enough to
[8:57:13] achieve this. And it's
[8:57:16] estimated was cigna alone that
[8:57:17] eight hundred thousand acres of
[8:57:18] farmla wl go out of
[8:57:20] production. I submit to my
[8:57:27] colleagues at this is farm land.
[8:57:28] That produces the food that
[8:57:41] your constituents eat. An. The
[8:57:42] american food supply as a loss
[8:57:44] on the economic impact in job
[8:57:44] loss will be staggering
[8:57:46] especially for central valley
[8:57:48] sb one with the amendments I
[8:57:49] still believe rex voluntary
[8:57:50] agreements were initiated to
[8:57:53] comply with 40% of them paired
[8:57:55] flows and planned approved a
[8:57:55] plan that was approved in
[8:57:57] December of two thousand
[8:57:57] eighteen that alone is
[8:57:59] estimated to take two hundred
[8:57:59] forty thousand acres of farm
[8:58:00] land out of production the
[8:58:03] economic implacable on this
[8:58:04] piece of legislation with the
[8:58:06] amendments and that farm land
[8:58:06] going out of production will
[8:58:08] affect our schools. Are tax
[8:58:10] revenue for fires are fire
[8:58:12] chiefs are police chiefs
[8:58:13] because when you don't have
[8:58:14] land in production for food to
[8:58:16] grow food there's not revenue
[8:58:18] to pay taxes to support that
[8:58:20] it's estimated that from merced
[8:58:22] to bakersfield almost two point
[8:58:24] two million people will a case
[8:58:26] estimated that these entire
[8:58:28] communities could be devastated
[8:58:29] from merced temp to bakersfield
[8:58:30] and in fact almost two million
[8:58:32] people from san fran in the san
[8:58:34] francisco bay area will also
[8:58:39] lose. Water in c. Draconian
[8:58:46] water reductions. Sb one in
[8:58:47] these amendments takes affects
[8:58:48] immediately any remains in
[8:58:49] effect until the President
[8:58:51] Trump's he leaves office and it
[8:58:51] gives california's so
[8:58:52] controller the vast amounts of
[8:58:54] water prevents the federal
[8:58:55] government's. Intervention
[8:58:55] intervention assistance in
[8:58:57] restoring balance for
[8:58:57] beneficial water use for all
[8:59:03] users. This is really. You know
[8:59:05] the central valley is. We
[8:59:06] produce the energy that the
[8:59:07] californians in constituents
[8:59:07] constituents use on a daily
[8:59:13] basis. And we produce the food.
[8:59:15] That your constituents eat and
[8:59:16] we're gonna have to import more
[8:59:17] oral because of bills were
[8:59:19] passed earlier this week and
[8:59:19] we're gonna have to import more
[8:59:20] food if this bill passes.
[8:59:21] Reading the analysis it just
[8:59:22] came off the floor with the
[8:59:24] amendments there's a private
[8:59:26] right of action that was
[8:59:29] mentioned earlier that allows a
[8:59:30] private right action against
[8:59:31] individuals and businesses that
[8:59:34] allegedly cz emergency
[8:59:35] regulations adopted by the or
[8:59:39] be. The cost anticipatd for
[8:59:40] this particular fee increases
[8:59:40] between four hundred thousand
[8:59:43] and three million annually.
[8:59:44] There is anticipating a six
[8:59:45] point eight million dollar in
[8:59:47] special funds one going costs
[8:59:48] are estimated potentially for
[8:59:49] twenty five million dollars
[8:59:51] annually the department of fish
[8:59:53] and wildlife is estimated six
[8:59:54] million for the first year and
[8:59:56] implementation and eleven
[8:59:59] million to on going cost. Their
[9:00:00] resources board another state
[9:00:02] agencies vested median eleven
[9:00:05] million dollars plus twenty
[9:00:06] five million dollars in the
[9:00:06] general fund for the air
[9:00:08] pollution fund the state water
[9:00:10] resources control board says
[9:00:11] it's anticipating the fiscal
[9:00:12] impact about a million dollars
[9:00:14] a spread across various sending
[9:00:16] funding sources. The department
[9:00:18] of justice's it's likely to
[9:00:19] cost nearly three or fifty
[9:00:20] thousand dollars annually and
[9:00:21] the department of industrial
[9:00:26] relations a d. R. Says it's.
[9:00:26] About one point five million
[9:00:33] dollars in range. It's a has x.
[9:00:34] Significant fiscal impact on
[9:00:35] our state but it has a bigger
[9:00:37] impact. O your food supply.
[9:00:39] And so I would respectfully ask
[9:00:41] for a no vote. Thank you
[9:00:43] centers action thank you very
[9:00:44] much I'm I'm not sure would
[9:00:46] bills the minority leaders
[9:00:47] referring to but basically what
[9:00:49] this bill does. As I understand
[9:00:50] it and what the amendments to.
[9:00:52] Is it says it requires the
[9:00:53] state to adopt to be
[9:00:57] regulation. Any federal air
[9:01:01] standard that is weakened. So
[9:01:03] what we've got now the highest
[9:01:04] laws that already exist we're
[9:01:05] going to protect. Because we
[9:01:07] know this administration has
[9:01:08] made a point to try to
[9:01:11] undermine every environmental
[9:01:16] law in the state. I am talking
[9:01:17] to the issue and the issue was
[9:01:23] the amendments. What's more
[9:01:31] back in dc on you guys. It is
[9:01:35] very we kinda like. We would
[9:01:35] you haven't been recognize
[9:01:38] first and we asked for decorum
[9:01:40] and we ask not directed tax on
[9:01:45] each other so visit. State your
[9:01:51] point of order. Is being in the
[9:01:58] nation. To maintain the higher
[9:02:01] federal air standards. That
[9:02:04] exist now if they are weakened
[9:02:05] by the federal government that
[9:02:07] is part of this bill so with
[9:02:09] all due respect I would
[9:02:12] appreciate it if those who. Are
[9:02:15] talking about sb one would talk
[9:02:17] about sb one and I'm talking
[9:02:19] about the amendment it says we
[9:02:21] will the department of
[9:02:22] industrial relations and others
[9:02:25] will adopt various protections
[9:02:27] that were in place in federal
[9:02:31] law or regulation as of January
[9:02:32] twenty seventeen if they are
[9:02:33] subsequently we can to or
[9:02:35] repealed in other words we have
[9:02:39] a baseline. We do not want to
[9:02:41] our environmental laws eroded
[9:02:43] below those bass lines whether
[9:02:45] it's state law or whether it's
[9:02:47] federal law that we have been
[9:02:49] using that's what this bill is
[9:02:51] all about that's what the
[9:02:52] amendments are about and if I
[9:02:55] could refer you. To the section
[9:02:56] regarding a the amendment to
[9:02:58] the private right of action it
[9:03:00] doesn't create a new one each
[9:03:03] assembly says that the provides
[9:03:05] a private right of action to
[9:03:06] enforce certain error water
[9:03:09] standards within california if
[9:03:11] the existing private right of
[9:03:13] action within federal law or
[9:03:16] regulation is weakened to or
[9:03:17] repealed because we know that's
[9:03:19] exactly what is going on in
[9:03:21] washington we want to protect
[9:03:23] our laws we want to protect our
[9:03:25] state these notions. That the
[9:03:27] world is going to come to an
[9:03:31] end our food supply is going to
[9:03:35] come to an end is trust falls.
[9:03:35] This bill says we want to
[9:03:36] protect the standards that are
[9:03:38] in existence as of January
[9:03:38] twenty seventeen before this
[9:03:40] administration came in and
[9:03:41] started undermining and
[9:03:44] weakening those regulations.
[9:03:45] That's what this bill does this
[9:03:47] is totally on point because
[9:03:49] what we're talking about is the
[9:03:52] reduction in the weakening que
[9:03:52] to fight your point of order
[9:03:57] senator. Okay okay all over the
[9:04:01] state. Water based on what you
[9:04:08] guys. Thank you. Were you still
[9:04:10] ste continues speak to the
[9:04:11] member senator jackson thank
[9:04:13] you I am speaking to the
[9:04:14] amendments at least as they
[9:04:16] exist here and it provides any
[9:04:19] state regulation that's adopted
[9:04:20] to ensure protections of
[9:04:24] federal law so of January
[9:04:27] twenty seventeen will sunset in
[9:04:27] twenty twenty five we are
[9:04:28] protect trying to protect the
[9:04:30] environmental laws of the state
[9:04:32] that's what this bill does
[9:04:33] that's what these amendments do
[9:04:35] I want to thank the author for
[9:04:36] doing this we have spent
[9:04:39] decades trying to create strong
[9:04:41] environmental protections to
[9:04:43] advance to protect the future
[9:04:45] of our great state we do not
[9:04:47] want them undemind. That's
[9:04:49] what this bill does and I thank
[9:04:52] the author for bringing in and
[9:04:53] ask for your vote. Thank you
[9:04:56] center hueso. Thank you Mister
[9:04:56] President the point of order.
[9:04:59] Basically confirmed in my mind
[9:05:00] that the opposition doesn't
[9:05:02] understand what this bill is
[9:05:04] really about so. I was going to
[9:05:07] get up and cal clarify but my
[9:05:07] colleague from santa barbara
[9:05:10] did a great job basically.
[9:05:11] Explaining what this bill
[9:05:13] actually does and we talk about
[9:05:15] science coming out of
[9:05:18] washington right now I'm sorry.
[9:05:20] The science it had nothing
[9:05:20] coming out of washington is
[9:05:23] based o science right now. And
[9:05:25] what they are attempting to do
[9:05:28] here in california is
[9:05:31] undermining our ability. To
[9:05:33] solve problems that we have in
[9:05:35] our state. The deal was salt
[9:05:38] water intrusion that seal with
[9:05:39] that deal with the protection
[9:05:42] of endangered species that deal
[9:05:44] with of subsidence it's also
[9:05:46] affect the in. The production
[9:05:48] of crops in our state.
[9:05:51] Subsidence we voter on a bill
[9:05:53] that's funding the frying canal
[9:05:55] that is been affected by
[9:05:57] subsidence we talk about. The
[9:05:59] ground water management this is
[9:06:02] a critical issue in california
[9:06:03] and our survival of salt water
[9:06:06] intrusion overtakes. Our water
[9:06:07] supply in the entire valley
[9:06:09] there goes all of agriculture.
[9:06:11] Everything is destroyed this
[9:06:13] also is an issue that deals
[9:06:14] with our economy and our
[9:06:17] ability to produce. Of food in
[9:06:19] the state so. This is a very
[9:06:21] important bill and I applaud
[9:06:23] the author for taking on this
[9:06:25] issue creating the baseline
[9:06:27] this bill. Will not change
[9:06:34] anything it will not but of. It
[9:06:35] will not. Destroy our state's
[9:06:36] ability to continue to produce
[9:06:39] food but it will. Provide those
[9:06:41] important protections maintain
[9:06:43] them in place the one set of we
[9:06:45] want we've worked for. For
[9:06:46] decades to put in place to put
[9:06:49] our state on a better path and
[9:06:50] we are the largest agricultural
[9:06:53] producer in the countries we-
[9:06:55] things are going well war war
[9:06:57] going in the right direction.
[9:06:59] Science tells us that climate
[9:07:01] change is real we gotta do our
[9:07:03] part this administration's term
[9:07:05] debt though that but what we
[9:07:06] understand a in our community
[9:07:08] here in california. And we're
[9:07:11] fighting for our survival here
[9:07:12] support this bill this is a
[9:07:15] good bill. This bill supports
[9:07:19] every aspect of our economy our
[9:07:22] environment and our quality of
[9:07:25] life please vote yes. To
[9:07:29] senator mining. Your President
[9:07:30] I also rise in support I want
[9:07:32] to thank the pro tem for her
[9:07:34] courage and leadership bringing
[9:07:36] this forward a lot of the focus
[9:07:39] on the amendments that we are
[9:07:41] voting on has been on the
[9:07:43] environmental standards that
[9:07:46] were trying to protect. They do
[9:07:48] have some affect potentially on
[9:07:50] water issues but I just want to
[9:07:53] focus. The future of
[9:07:57] agriculture. Depends in large
[9:08:00] measure on the work force that
[9:08:02] cultivates and harvest the crop.
[9:08:05] In this bill also seeks to
[9:08:06] authorize the occupational
[9:08:08] safety and health standards
[9:08:09] board in the department of
[9:08:11] industrial relations to adopt
[9:08:14] via regulation any worker
[9:08:16] protections that were in place
[9:08:18] in federal law or regulation as
[9:08:21] of January twenty seventeen and
[9:08:22] were subsequently weakened or
[9:08:25] repealed. I would submit that
[9:08:27] worker healtand safe the
[9:08:30] protection of worker protection
[9:08:33] standards are also an equally
[9:08:35] important component of this
[9:08:38] bill and I urge your aye vote.
[9:08:40] Thank you any additional
[9:08:41] discussion or debate on this
[9:08:45] item. Jean hearing on Madam Pro
[9:08:48] tem would you like to close
[9:08:48] thank you Mister President I
[9:08:51] would. You know the whole
[9:08:54] intent in point of this bill is
[9:08:56] to protect us against roll
[9:08:58] backs that are occurring. On
[9:09:00] clean air clean water
[9:09:01] endangered species worker
[9:09:04] protections. Some of the
[9:09:05] statements are I think a little
[9:09:08] bit over broad our state I'm
[9:09:09] I'm gonna make a few points
[9:09:12] just to. Respond to some of the
[9:09:13] comments and questions
[9:09:17] hopefully. It because this is
[9:09:19] such a large bill and we took
[9:09:22] so many amendments. Our state
[9:09:23] has lived and thrived under the
[9:09:26] current esa limits the only
[9:09:28] thing this bill affects again
[9:09:31] is roll backs no new
[9:09:35] regulations no hold science. As
[9:09:37] it relates to the essay nothing
[9:09:39] precludes new science from
[9:09:40] being used we're just saying
[9:09:42] that california will review the
[9:09:44] science and just not trust that
[9:09:47] the science coming. Out of the
[9:09:48] fed's the fed federal
[9:09:51] ministrations true and that's
[9:09:53] why the final discretion rest
[9:09:54] with fish and game. I would
[9:09:57] point out. The at five in the
[9:10:00] last several months. The
[9:10:02] provisions were talking to that
[9:10:04] are esstial to the
[9:10:06] overarching purpose of the bill
[9:10:06] particularly in response to
[9:10:10] recent. The recent actions I
[9:10:12] don't know how else to say it
[9:10:13] out of the current
[9:10:15] administration. Is to sideline
[9:10:18] federal scientists and weakened
[9:10:21] protections for several species
[9:10:23] we saw that there was these the
[9:10:26] new regulations were coming out
[9:10:27] they were over written by the
[9:10:30] federal administration. To get
[9:10:32] new regulations because they
[9:10:34] didn't like the regulations
[9:10:36] were coming from the scientist.
[9:10:38] The first place so they were
[9:10:40] over written by the federal
[9:10:42] administration that is absolute
[9:10:44] evidence that there is an
[9:10:46] attempt to actually override
[9:10:49] the best science. People keep
[9:10:52] asking me of our talking about
[9:10:54] this bill as if we are trying
[9:10:57] not to accept the newest. And
[9:10:59] most updated science we just
[9:11:02] saw evidence of exactly the
[9:11:08] opposite out of. Washington.
[9:11:10] The bill totally preserves full
[9:11:11] discretion for our state
[9:11:13] agencies to assess and apply
[9:11:15] the most current science
[9:11:17] available we put it in the bill
[9:11:19] it's the language in the bill
[9:11:21] it does not in any manner lock
[9:11:26] in old science. References to
[9:11:28] rushing a bill this bill has
[9:11:30] been heard in an unprecedented
[9:11:32] six policy committees three in
[9:11:34] a each house it's been
[9:11:37] reviewed. Extensively and when
[9:11:40] you say stick to the amendments
[9:11:40] there been seventy five
[9:11:44] amendments to this bill. In
[9:11:46] reference to the letters you
[9:11:47] know there been more letters
[9:11:50] from hi congressional members
[9:11:54] to actually one in support. The
[9:11:55] bill of the bill and one that
[9:11:57] ask for amendments we've made
[9:11:59] as I said amendments to address
[9:12:00] the concerns raised in one
[9:12:02] letter but we stayed faithful
[9:12:03] to the support expressed by the
[9:12:06] other. Sb one doesn't in any
[9:12:08] manner affect the standards
[9:12:10] that apply to the water system.
[9:12:12] In california unless again
[9:12:13] their rolled back that's the
[9:12:16] whole point. Our system has
[9:12:18] worked well for decades sb one
[9:12:21] isn't the problem I think it's
[9:12:24] the impact and attack. On the
[9:12:27] forty years worth of work that
[9:12:30] we have done with stakeholders
[9:12:34] through agencies process. That
[9:12:35] is what we're trying to protect
[9:12:38] and I wouldn't. I have a great
[9:12:41] deal of admiration and respect
[9:12:42] for people in the agricultural
[9:12:45] community which is why we met a
[9:12:46] number of times and for many of
[9:12:51] these. Amendments come from. It
[9:12:53] pains me that we haven't been
[9:12:56] able to come to agreement.
[9:12:59] Personally are but this is the
[9:13:00] crux of the discussion that we
[9:13:05] have been having. For decades.
[9:13:06] We talk about people who will
[9:13:08] be impacted when we had the
[9:13:10] last drought we almost lost the
[9:13:13] entire salmon population in
[9:13:18] parts of our state. Because we
[9:13:20] needed that protection in place
[9:13:21] we needed the endangered
[9:13:25] species we have a you know
[9:13:26] people like to talk about the
[9:13:29] little fish the smel. Were
[9:13:30] talking steel head trout were
[9:13:33] talkin salmon were talking
[9:13:36] resident killer whales. Bob
[9:13:37] we're talking about the delta
[9:13:41] ecosystem. I get the dialogue
[9:13:43] and discussion I understand how
[9:13:46] hard this is we are asking
[9:13:49] frankly not to have a rush in
[9:13:51] judgment on clean air clean
[9:13:55] water. Worker protections the
[9:13:57] endangered species or asking
[9:13:59] not to have a rush to judgment
[9:14:03] and redo in six months nine
[9:14:06] months one year all of the work
[9:14:09] that we have done for decades.
[9:14:11] As californians and in fact
[9:14:13] working with federal
[9:14:16] administrations both democrats
[9:14:19] and republicans so. I
[9:14:20] appreciate the depth of feeling
[9:14:23] here and I gotta tell yeah I'e
[9:14:25] never felt more conflicted in
[9:14:29] terms of all of the
[9:14:31] stakeholders that feel feel
[9:14:34] intimately the impact of what
[9:14:36] this legislation is doing but
[9:14:38] frankly it is because there was
[9:14:41] the desire to try to roll back
[9:14:42] components of the endangered
[9:14:47] species act because. Are there
[9:14:48] is something you that many
[9:14:50] would like to see on done in
[9:14:54] the first place so. I
[9:14:56] respectfully ask my colleagues
[9:14:59] to support this. I don't know
[9:15:00] much more what we could have
[9:15:04] done to address every concern.
[9:15:07] In good faith I said I would we
[9:15:10] worked incredibly hard and-I
[9:15:13] would at this very early hour
[9:15:15] in the morning on the
[9:15:19] fourteenth. It'safter midnight
[9:15:20] we're no longer on the
[9:15:22] thirteenth that might be good
[9:15:23] given the things that have
[9:15:24] happened all day and into the
[9:15:26] evening. But I would
[9:15:28] respectfully ask my colleagues
[9:15:30] for an aye vote on sb one we
[9:15:32] should be incredibly proud of
[9:15:33] the work that california has
[9:15:36] done on all of these issues and
[9:15:38] we May not always agree but
[9:15:40] there has been a process. And
[9:15:43] extensive process on each of
[9:15:43] these areas. And this bill
[9:15:46] reflects. Just the strong
[9:15:48] support of that work hat we
[9:15:50] have done I ask for your aye
[9:15:52] vote. Thank you all debate

[9:41:57] actually no highways. Early
[9:41:59] this floor is yours thank you
[9:42:01] Mister President members bear
[9:42:02] with me my cold is kicked into
[9:42:05] high gear I rise today to
[9:42:07] present ab twenty nine a bill
[9:42:08] that resolved the problem that
[9:42:09] has been dividing the san
[9:42:10] gabriel valley for far too
[9:42:13] long. The bill really removes
[9:42:15] the most disputed land of the
[9:42:17] s. R. Seven ten from the
[9:42:18] freeway and expressed code
[9:42:21] express we code a line the law
[9:42:23] with the desires of the cities
[9:42:24] and the finalized caltrans iii
[9:42:27] are. For to long the state has
[9:42:30] attempted to determine what the
[9:42:31] local community. Can do with
[9:42:35] this area. I thank you Mister
[9:42:36] President. Since they felt
[9:42:36] ignored local residents took
[9:42:38] the issue to court and a
[9:42:40] decades long battle began. That
[9:42:42] kept this land stagnant for
[9:42:43] years while the rest of the
[9:42:44] community grew and developed
[9:42:47] around it. Last year la metro
[9:42:49] caltrans to clear the-locally
[9:42:51] preferred alternative. To be
[9:42:53] traffic demand management not a
[9:42:55] freeway this is reflected in
[9:42:57] the finalized yeah they are now
[9:42:58] all of the communities that
[9:43:00] used to be at odds are in at
[9:43:01] the table together. Discussing
[9:43:03] how to move forward in a
[9:43:05] unified fashion this is
[9:43:06] something hat was unfathomable
[9:43:09] just one year ago. Ab twenty
[9:43:09] nine will allow them to build
[9:43:11] affordable housing develop
[9:43:13] green spaces create bike lanes
[9:43:15] and dedicated bu routes
[9:43:17] instead of crowded streets. Mix
[9:43:19] to build mixed use spaces for
[9:43:21] retail housing entertainment.
[9:43:22] And whatever else the
[9:43:24] communities decide the author
[9:43:25] has worked closely with the
[9:43:27] local governments caltrans la
[9:43:29] metro. The la county board of
[9:43:31] supervisors cal state la and
[9:43:33] members on this floor to get
[9:43:35] the bill to where it is today.
[9:43:36] He has worked on for three
[9:43:37] years to get to the point where
[9:43:40] there is consensus on the goal
[9:43:41] and no objections to the
[9:43:43] language. Is a straightforward
[9:43:45] bill that would mean a lot to
[9:43:46] the residents of south
[9:43:48] pasadena. And pasadena this
[9:43:50] bill supported by local cities
[9:43:52] also we would like to offer
[9:43:53] thanks to the senators whose
[9:43:56] districts are impacted by sr

[10:08:14] Respect the california

[10:08:17] for considering a freeway or
[10:08:19] tunnel only after sixty years
[10:08:21] does this bill put a stake in
[10:08:22] the heart of the seven ten
[10:08:24] tomalin my respect goes out to
[10:08:26] some of the folks who are still
[10:08:28] living who started this fight
[10:08:30] sixty years ago. Who made us
[10:08:31] all this happened it also
[10:08:33] restricts caltrans from

[10:09:05] relinquish to the city of
[10:09:07] pasadena the stops and that's
