[16:13] file item twenty five center

[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

[35:57] 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] -

[1:52:38] 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

[2:42:13] Miss lottie today senator.

[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.

[2:52:31] 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

[3:03:17] 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

[3:03:28] 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.

[3:04:15] 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

[3:30:44] 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

[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

[4:06:52] 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

[4:07:21] the state of california to non

[4:07:23] profits an african american

[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

[4:44:07] dollars for the california

[4:44:10] community colleges. Two billion

[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

[4:44:40] prioritizing the review of

[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

[4:45:03] and community college districts

[4:45:06] ability to raise local funds.

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

[4:45:10] twenty twenty six the bill way

[4:45:52] issues. And requires uc and csu

[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

[4:57:30] 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.

[5:02:57] 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

[5:10:39] eleventh grade students access.

[5:10:41] To requiredentrance exam for

[5:10:42] college currently students in

[5:10:44] grades three through eight an

[5:10:47] eleventh grader required to

[5:10:48] take the smarter balanced

[5:10:50] assessment this bill allows but

[5:10:52] does not require a school

[5:10:54] districts to administer a

[5:10:56] college entrance exams such as

[5:10:58] the sat or act ste the city

[5:11:00] instead of the state required

[5:11:01] assessment for eleventh grade

[5:11:04] students ab seven fifty one

[5:11:05] requires assessment to meet our

[5:11:07] state academic standards. And

[5:11:09] to ensure that accommodations

[5:11:12] learners and students with

[5:11:13] disabilities as required by

[5:11:15] federal law school districts we

[5:11:17] need to get approval from the

[5:11:18] us department of education

[5:11:20] before administering the

[5:11:22] college entrance exam and prove

[5:11:23] that this assessment would meet

[5:11:24] all state and federal

[5:11:27] requirements ab seven fifty one

[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

[5:21:54] flaw of ab five selecting

[5:21:55] industries are not clear

[5:21:59] factors. That's a greatly. As I

[5:24:02] 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

[5:32:49] left out from this car about

[5:32:51] training left at the station.

[5:32:56] Are unacceptable. Thank you in

[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

[5:43:20] 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

[6:02:08] is ready she's coming Mister

[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

[6:21:37] senator jackson's preparedness

[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

[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

[8:35:15] 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

[8:35:32] in washington role in dc rolls

[8:35:41] regulations or requirements on

[8:35:43] business agriculture or the

[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

[8:36:01] 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

[9:41:59] 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

[10:08:22] 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
