and I couldn't agree with you more. We're going to show the nation how we can coexist with data centers. So with that, I respectfully request an aye vote.

Buenos dias, Mr. Speaker and members. AB 2795 is back on concurrence from the Senate. With that, I respectfully ask for a yes vote. Thank you.

Senator AB 1049 is back in concurrence. Senate amendments make technical changes. These amendments ensure the state and counties have the system capacity needed to implement the bill accurately and without disrupting food assistance. This is a two-year bill my office has worked on in partnership with the Food for All Coalition, and we are proud to ask for an aye vote.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker and members. This is yet another bill in the Assembly's effort to ensure the data centers here in California work not just for the companies that are building them, but also for our constituents. This is a transparency bill on energy that will ensure that our grid is able to stand up to the needs of these data centers. And it also empowers local communities to have information about not only the energy, but the noise and other impacts it's going to have on local communities so they can make good decisions as well. With that, I respectfully ask for your aye vote on this bill.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We are struggling with how we can ensure that these data centers are sustainable. And I believe that the bills that are being offered right now are well intended. They respond to the concerns, the justified concerns about energy consumption and water consumption of these massive data centers. The problem is we're looking at it just from the standpoint of regulation rather than innovation. The data centers themselves are remarkable innovation. Artificial intelligence, mobile computing, allowing us to do so many things to make our lives better. If our country doesn't lead in artificial intelligence and data centers, if China does, we are going to put ourselves at a severe economic and national security disadvantage. So we can't kill the golden goose, but we want to make sure the golden goose doesn't crap in the tent, in the hen house. We've got to make sure that these are sustainable operations, sustainable from water and energy. And so I agree with the goal here, but all we're doing is we're offering cost, regulation, and mandate. What that means is the data centers will just simply go somewhere else. So the jobs go away. The environment's going to be impacted somewhere else. What if we can have a both-and? I am not yet seeing legislation from this body that both allows us to keep the jobs and the economic benefits while protecting our environment and our communities And so I looking forward to bills that do a both and I making this commitment If you are interested in having data centers that provide jobs without the environmental impacts, let's do this on a bipartisan basis. Let's challenge the data center operators. Bring us projects that are net neutral on water. Bring us projects that give energy back to the grid. Bring us projects that will not cost the rate payers for water or energy anymore. I believe they will do that. Now, what we have to offer in exchange is regulatory flexibility and incentives. Nothing in these bills provides that model. So that's what I want to challenge us to work on for the next legislative session. This is an important issue. We're hearing from our constituents up and down the state of California. Let's listen to that concern, but let's also enact responsible win-win policies. Thank you.

I want to rise in strong support of AB 1577. I would encourage our colleague from San Diego to actually read the bills that are actually on the floor. Every one of these bills, I think, approaches data centers from the philosophy that we understand the importance to our innovation economy in California. We understand what an important component they can be, but they're really focused on making sure that we are protecting our citizens and also getting the benefits of data centers. And every single one of the bills, whether it be in the water area and the energy area and the one that I'm carrying or the one that my colleague from Orinda is carrying, which is actually merely providing requirements so that we can understand better what these data centers are doing so that we can actually do the things that are important to keep data centers in the state of California and get the jobs and the economic impacts and making sure that we remain in a leadership position as part of the innovation economy, but at the same time make sure that they're working for Californians. And if you look at the bills, the bills do have incentives in them. I mean, if you look at the bills, all the things that our colleague from San Diego said that they don't have, have in the bills. So I'd encourage all of you to read the three bills, and I think you're going to understand that the philosophy is basically harnessing the benefits of data centers and making sure that data centers are protecting and that we're assuring that unintended consequences of them are being dealt with. So with that, I strongly support AB 1577.

Thank you very much. I also want to add my voice in strong support, not only of this bill, but all of the bills that seek, that's trying to just provide more transparency for, you know, so that we can support and plan for the development of AI infrastructure in the innovation state. I mean, I am very proud of California being the innovation state, of leading the country and the world in innovation. But at the same time, I mean, let's recognize that there is a groundswell of bipartisan frustration with big tech, you know, like putting these burdens on energy costs, on water demands, on our local communities. And I rise because, you know, I saw that one of the very good transparency bills was vetoed last year. And I don understand why we don have we cannot at the very least support innovation while at the same time supporting sustainability making sure that we have the transparency so that we can responsibly plan for the development of artificial intelligence infrastructure in the state of California.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I'd just like to thank my colleague from Irinda. we are on to something, whether it's water, whether it's electricity. Transparency equals coexistence. So I appreciate the bill. I appreciate the sector you're bringing it up in. We're going to get this right, but we cannot get it right without transparency. So thank you so much for the focus on transparency.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. And I rise in opposition to this bill. not because we don't want transparency, but because we see what's happening in the modernization of the world today and where we're at. And a lot of these rules and regulations appear to be like trying to protect the horseshoe industry by banning the car. And we've seen when we've passed on the power and the rules of regulations to the Energy Commission, what do they do? They ban 70% of the tires here on the market utilizing their regulatory powers. And the big threat and the reason why we ask to tread lightly on this is because we know how important it is to modernize and to take necessary steps. We know right now that these data centers are probably not liked by a majority of people. But what we can't do is put a majority of over-erroneous regulations and empower unelected bureaucrat agencies to make that decision for us. This is something that will take a lot of time to make sure that we're factoring in the environmental compliances, the cost onto the general population, and what we need to do to also participate on this modernized arms race. There are foreign adversaries that are working through quantum computing, through other areas that do not like where we're at, that are undermining our goals to take the next step in modernization. And we must tread lightly on that. We should not pass on more power to bureaucratic agencies to create regulatory compliance. That does not work when we need to take a necessary step in modernization. For those reasons, I respectfully ask for your no vote.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise in strong support of AB 1577, and I appreciate the debate on this floor because I think this debate is extremely critical. As someone that represents the Central Valley, I know that the data centers are, you know, scouting places in my region. I want to make sure that we're doing it the right way. I do believe that we need transparency. We need data. If you guys see across the Central Valley, there's a lot of interest. Actually, not too far from my district and the home county that I grew up, Tulare County, they just took a pause because local governments are also looking for guidance. They need information so that they can make the best possible decisions because we're going to have to live with it. And as someone that represents some of the most impoverished communities, I want to make sure that when these investments come into my community, that they're doing it right, that we're not siphoning the water that is needed for agriculture, that we're making sure that our communities are receiving true community benefit not just you know a couple million dollars to you know make people go away That is not the way to do it And I think this information is very critical And I'm looking forward to having a continued policy discussion, not just as we end session, but as we move forward. Because we do want to keep California competitive when it comes to technology and innovation and AI. It's here. We accept that, but we have to create a framework that is going to protect every single community, no matter if you live in Beverly Hills or you live in Huron or in Mendota. All of our communities deserve to have an opportunity to have prosperity without being taken advantage of. And so I support these efforts, and I look forward to continuing to have these discussions in terms of what the future of technology will look like in California.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker and members. And thank you for the spirited debate on this. I think first and foremost, we have to remember who we show up every day to represent, and that is the 40 million people of the state of California, people who today are paying the highest energy rates in the country. This effort started for me two years ago, honestly, before the data center sentiment got to where it is today. And that was because I was, at the time, also the chair of the Privacy Committee, and I was sitting on our Utility and Energy Committee, and we were having a deep conversation about utility rates and what we could do to stop the astronomic rise in rates and really bring them down. And in those conversations, I said to the Energy Commission, which I'm not sure my colleague from Tulare knows what they do, But one of the things they do is that they forecast our energy needs and help plan the grid for California's future to keep the lights on not just for our constituents but also for California's businesses. Keeping the lights on is good for everybody and every business in California. And so I asked the question, well, how are we forecasting the needs of our data centers in our plans? And the answer was, well, we're doing our best, but we don't really know much about it. And that's when I started this conversation about making sure that we had the information to build a grid that would sustain Californians and Californian businesses, but would not shift the cost of these data centers to our rate payers. We want California innovation and we want these businesses to thrive. But everyday Californians who are suffering with the cost of living here should not be paying the price for these data centers. And the bill didn't make it last year, so I'm back this year with the bill in a different form. But it is critically important that we get this information. Our constituents want us to be planning. Just this year, in one of our red districts in the state, we lost our energy provider. The energy provider left that community to go serve data centers and not our constituents. That is not in the best interest of Californians. And this information this bill will provide will ensure that we have energy providers, We have energy. We have transmission. And we put the cost of this energy on the companies that need it and not on everyday Californians. And with that, I respectfully ask for your aye vote.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Members, I rise today to present AB 1930, which is back in the Assembly on concurrence. This bill will require business entities to notify the Office of the Attorney General if they intend to respond to a subpoena or discovery requests regarding abortion and gender-affirming care.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Members, I rise to request that today's session be adjourned in memory of Dr. Jack Edward Foote, who passed away peacefully at his home on August 14th, surrounded by his family. Dr. Foote was a professor of music emeritus at California State University, Sacramento, where for decades he taught bands, saxophone, and music education and advised the university's graduate program performance program. He earned his bachelor's, master's, and doctorate in music education from the University of Oklahoma, where he also assisted with the marching and concert band and taught jazz ensemble. Before Sacramento, Dr. Foote taught in the public schools of Richardson, Texas, and later directed marching, concerts, and jazz ensemble at the University of Colorado Boulder. He was an accomplished saxophonist and clarinetist, performing with the Oklahoma City Symphony and with the big bands of Le Argett and Buddy Morrow. His jazz ensemble appeared on the NBC Today show, and his marching bands performed for a national audience at the Blue Burnet Bowl, the Orange Bowl, and for the Denver Broncos, the Los Angeles Rams, and the San Diego Chargers, and the San Francisco 49ers. He was a prolific composer and arranger with more than 200 musical works to his name, written for professional use including for Coors Brewery and legendary trumpeter Doc Severinsen But for all his accomplishments on stages and podiums across the country Dr Foote heart never strayed far from home He was married to his wife, Judy, for 62 years. They were rarely apart. Husband and wife, yes. But above all, best friends and travel companions who explored the world together, no matter how far his travels took him, his heart remained with his family and his students. His sons, Joel and Jason, could always count on him for counsel and guidance. He carried a well of wisdom and insight that he shared freely and generously. He was known for his huge smile and his quick wit, always the first to offer a joke, and just as often the first to laugh at himself. He took genuine, unguarded interest in the lives and adventures of the people he loved. Dr. Foote was also a proud member of the Chickasaw Nation, a lifelong educator and musician who found beauty in all things and moments, and most of all in people, especially his students and his family. Colleagues Dr. Foote spent a career teaching young magicians not just how to play, but how to listen to each other and to the world around them. That same generosity of spirit defined him at home where he was above all a devoted husband, father and friend. His positivity, his humor, his wisdom and his compassion will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. On behalf of this body, I ask that we adjourn today's session in memory of Dr. Jack Edward Fitt and extend our deepest condolences to his wife, Judy, and his son, Joel, and Jason, and the entire family.

Members, I rise today to adjourn in the memory of Daniel Dan Ford Hollingsworth, a remarkable Californian whose life was defined by faith, family, hard work, and a lifelong commitment to agriculture. Dan was born in Grand Junction, Colorado, one of 10 children, and came to California with his family as a young boy. Growing up in Pomona, he picked peaches for neighboring farmers, participated in 4-H and Future Farmers of America, and developed an early connection to agriculture that would shape the rest of his life. Dan went on to study dairy science at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, graduating in just three years. It was also during those years that he met the love of his life, Joan Clark. Dan and Joan married in 1955 and last year celebrated an extraordinary 70 years together. Over the decades that followed, Dan became a respected voice in California agriculture. He served more than six decades with the Riverside County Farm Bureau, including as its president and as state director of the California Farm Bureau Federation. In 2011, the California Farm Bureau recognized the lifetime of service with its Distinguished Service Award. But Dan's legacy extends well beyond any title or award. It lives on through his family, his faith, and the many people whose lives he touched over the course of nearly a century. Thank you. To Joan and the entire Hollingsworth family, I extend my deepest condolences. I ask the Assembly to adjourn in the memory of Dan Hollingsworth. Thank you, Assemblymember Sanchez. Assemblymember Wallace, you are recognized for your adjournment in memory. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Members, I rise today to ask this body to adjourn in the memory of Dan Hollingsworth, a longtime Riverside County leader whose life and legacy are deeply connected to the communities I have the privilege of representing. Dan and his wife Joan settled in San Jacinto where they purchased a small dairy in 1960. At Dan's Dairy, Dan milked 50 cows while Joan helped bottle the milk, and together they ran home delivery routes throughout the San Jacinto Valley and as far as Idlewild. Their dairy supplied local schools and even the crews constructing the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, with helicopters landing in their front yard to carry milk up the mountain. He was also a public servant, working on the staff of Congressman Victor Vasey. This led him to becoming a force in Riverside Republican politics, where he served twice as chairman of the county central committee. Dan's legacy of service continued to the next generation. His son, Dennis Hollingsworth, was a member of this very body, and then in the state senate, ultimately serving as Senate Republican leader. Dan was a straight shooter. He never minced words and he never told you what he thought you wanted to hear. Dan told you exactly what he believed and exactly where he stood. And more often than not, you were wise to listen to him. That kind of candor and conviction earned him the respect of generations of people who worked alongside him in our communities and in public service. Dan is survived by his beloved wife Joan, his daughters Tina Spurgeon and Marcy Preston, his sons Lenny and Dennis, and his brothers Bob and Charles. Dan left a lasting mark on Riverside County and on those of us who had the privilege of knowing him and I ask this body to adjourn in the memory of Dan Hollingsworth. Thank you Assemblymember Wallace. Members please bring the names to the desk to be printed in the journal. I'll request to adjourn in memory will be deemed read and printed in the journal. We will now return back to our business on the daily file. Now we will be taking up our Senate third reading file. We begin with file item number 46 we will pass and retain on 46. File item 47 that's SB 1296 by Senator Durazo presented by Assemblymember Haney. The The clerk will read. Senate Bill 1296 by Senator Durazo and others, an act relating to Tennessee. Assemblymember Haney, you are recognized. Thank you, Mr. Speaker and members. I rise today to present SB 1296 on behalf of Senator Durazo. This bill will ensure that renters with pets can access clear pet policy information early in the housing search process by requiring the disclosure of pet policies on application materials and rental listings. The bill does not dictate whether a landlord must allow pets, restrict the types of pet policies a landlord may adopt, or limit fees. It simply requires housing providers to share their existing pet policy or no pet policy with prospective applicants. This will bring transparency to pet owners that they need when searching for a home, and I respectfully ask for your aye vote. Thank you, Assemblymember Haney. I'll debate having seized.

Assemblymember El-Hawari, I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but our clerk's entire team up here are all Laker fans. Did you know that? This is all a sea of Laker fans up here.

Senate Bill 99 by Senator Blakespeare and others, an act related to protective orders. Assemblymember Stephanie, you are recognized. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise to present SB 99, which strengthens protections for military families experiencing domestic violence. Right now, gaps between military and civilian systems can leave survivors without the protection they need. Military protective orders can protect survivors on and off base, but civilian law enforcement cannot enforce them. In one case, a military spouse moved off base to escape her abuser and was stopped. She repeatedly called 911, but local police did not notify the military. SB 99 closes that gap by creating a clear process for civilian law enforcement and military authorities to communicate. It also makes clear that judges can consider a military protective order when deciding whether to issue a domestic violence restraining order. Survivors should never be left unprotected simply because their abuse crosses jurisdictional lines. I respectfully ask for an aye vote. Thank you, Assemblymember Stephanie. I'll debate having ceased.

An act led to disaster preparedness. Assemblymember Calderon, you are recognized. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise to present SB 1153 on behalf of Senator Caballero. This bill provides a practical and reasonable approach to wildfire preparedness in California. In response to our unprecedented wildfires over the last decade, our public water systems have invested significant resources and time to prepare for future wildfire events. Public water systems were designed to provide customers with safe and reliable drinking water and to help extinguish structural fires in their communities, not to function as wildfire defense or suppression systems. SB 1153 improves local emergency planning, clarifies the role and capabilities of water systems during wildfire events, protects ratepayers, and supports future investment infrastructure, all while identifying wildfire suppression and hardening strategies the state can invest in. This bill has received bipartisan support and no no votes. I respectfully ask for your aye vote. Thank you, Assemblymember Calderon. All debate having ceased, clerk will open the roll.

As an attorney, I'm so excited to tell you about this bill.

Hence, you can see why I'm so excited to talk about this as an attorney. This will ensure we protect the privacy of patients undergoing a medical or psychological evaluation, treatment, or procedure.

Current law authorizes the California Insurance Commissioner to conduct examinations of insurers to evaluate their market practices and verify that insurers operate fairly and in compliance with state law. While most insurers voluntarily comply with actions proposed in an examination, there is no clear mechanism to require remediation of any violations. SB 1209 would allow the Insurance Commissioner to assess a fine to an insurer for failing to address corrective actions proposed in an examination. I respectfully ask for an aye vote. Thank you. Assemblymember Calderon. All debate having ceased. Clerk will open the roll. All members vote who desire to vote. All members vote who desire to vote. Cook will close the roll and tally the votes.

Assemblymember Dixon, you are recognized. Good afternoon, Madam Speaker and colleagues. AB 1918, also known as the Ink of Hope Act, is back today on concurrence. The amendments were technical and allow for a more reasonable timeframe for tattoo artists to complete the required training. AB 1918 would require tattoo shops to post a human trafficking notice with information on the signs of human trafficking and how to contact the National Human Trafficking Hotline. Additionally, tattoo artists would be required to complete at least 20 minutes of training to recognize the signs of human trafficking and how to report those signs to the appropriate law enforcement agency. AB 1918 has passed through the Assembly and the Senate with unanimous support and has received no opposition and is supported by Three Strands Global Foundation, the Little Hoover Commission and the Loyola Marymount University Law School. It gives me great pleasure to also tell you that my idea came directly from a fellow legislator in Tennessee, member of the State Senate of Tennessee. And when I was attending a conference in Orange County last winter, I heard about this bill because the author was sharing. We were all sharing information on bills that we've passed or done or pursued on human trafficking. Well, I'm delighted to share with you the author of the bill, State Senator Becky Massey from Tennessee, is standing at the back of the room, and the Speaker pro tem, would you like to, Majority Leader, why would you like to announce?

Do you want to do the vote first?

No?

Thank you, Madam Speaker. Earlier this year, I had the honor of going and touring the operations that were going on during the Super Bowl about sex trafficking. And the people that were saved through that process was incredible. But there was a man there that he's a tattoo artist. And he travels the country doing cover-ups for people that are the victims of sex trafficking. And we talked through that as a tattoo artist, he was able to find some of these girls that were being trafficked, young women that were being trafficked. and then he went through the training that after these girls had gone through the trauma of how to cover up the tattoos and things like that. So this is such a necessary bill. I truly think you're going to change so many people's lives. So thank you and as we say goodbye to you, you are truly leaving your mark and so many lives will be changed. Thank you, Madam Speaker.

And with that, I respectfully ask that you join the member from Oakland with your aye vote. Thank you assembly member all debate

Assemblymember Gabriel, the clerk will read. Senate Bill 869 by Senator Weber Pearson, an act relating to restaurant menus. Assemblymember Gabriel, you are recognized. Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. I rise to present SB 869 on behalf of Senator Weber Pearson, a measure focused on transparency, consumer awareness, and public health. This bill would require chain restaurants with 20 or more locations to place a clear added sugar icon on drive-thru menus next to beverages that contain extremely high levels of added sugar, specifically beverages containing one 100% or more of the recommended daily value of added sugar in a single serving. This bill would also require a brief factual statement explaining what this symbol means so consumers can make informed decisions. All other menus would either place the icon next to beverages with a statement describing the icon or have a QR code with a descriptor that link that would convey additional information. The QR code would link to the restaurant digital menu or nutritional guide that would have the icon next to beverages that meet the 100% threshold. Because the reality is that decisions are often made quickly at a menu board, at a counter, or a phone app, consumers discern information that is clear, visible, and easy to understand in those moments. The senator recently took floor amendments that moved the California Restaurant Association and Grocers Association to neutral. This bill takes a practical and balanced approach by pulling only to large chain restaurants. California has long been a leader in public health and consumer transparency and SB 968 continues the tradition with a straightforward evidence-based policy. Members, this is a simple bill with a simple goal, giving consumers better information about the beverages they purchase every day. Thank you and on behalf of the Senator, I respectfully

Mr. Laurent Dau.

Mr. Speaker and members, I request a unanimous consent to suspend Assembly Rule 118 to allow Assemblymember Schiavo to have guests seated at her desk today.

Mr. Speaker and members, I request unanimous consent to return AB 1294 Assemblymember Haney to the Senate for further action.

Senate Bill 58 by Senator Padilla and others in act relating to air pollution

to present SB 58 by my colleague who represents the Tijuana River Valley area just like I do, Senator Padilla. This bill is about hydrogen sulfide, which is a colorless, highly toxic gas with a strong odor detectable at very low concentration and is formed during bacterial decomposition of human and animal waste, something that unfortunately we are now suffering from in the Tijuana River Valley as a result of this crisis that you've heard about we speak about many times before. Exposure to hydrogen sulfide has been associated with health symptoms, including respiratory and gastrointestinal issues, headaches, fatigue, nausea, skin irritation, and respiratory irritation. In our district, the Tijuana River Valley has been identified as a hotspot of hydrogen sulfide emissions, exposing our constituents and harming their health. This data comes from researchers from respected institutions like the Scripps Institution of Oceanography out of UC San Diego. The Salton Sea has also been identified as a hotspot for hydrogen sulfide. Community researchers monitored these areas and found that monitoring and response procedures are inefficient as concentrations of this gas is often found at higher levels than is found otherwise in the outdoors. Unfortunately, the state's current framework for hydrogen sulfide does not take into account the unique nature of fugitive and natural sources of hydrogen sulfide as is occurring in the Tijuana River Valley. SB 58 addresses this gap by requiring CARB in consultation with our local air districts, public health agencies, water boards, emergency response officials, tribal governments, academic partners and community organizations to develop statewide guidelines and a response framework for hydrogen sulfide SB 58 seeks to protect the public health of Californians by strengthening the ability to respond to emergencies of hydrogen sulfide being released from unregulated sources. The bill is a bipartisan bill, received no votes, and I respectfully ask that you vote aye on this very important measure for our

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. And this bill is part of a package of bills that this legislative body has taken action on in a bipartisan way to deal with the environmental crisis in the Tijuana River Valley. I represent a portion of the border with Mexico, as does my colleague from San Diego and my colleague from Imperial County in Riverside. I cannot tell you how frustrating it is to have many decades of federal inaction on this issue, but also many decades of state government inaction on this issue. It has been very frustrating. A bipartisan group of legislators asked the governor to declare a state of emergency. He refused to do that. And so now we have to keep passing bills to stay on top of government agencies to say, hey, do something, do something. What do you need? What legislative framework can we put in place? How do we light a fire? We have high rates of asthma, other serious diseases. When our surfers go into the ocean, they come back with various diseases and rashes. Border patrol agents have literally gone home, taken off their boots after wading into the river, and the laces on the boots overnight dissolve. They're diagnosed with all sorts of illnesses. This is a major environmental issue. As it relates to air quality, which is what this bill relates to, we've had a number of academic studies of air quality and they all come back raising serious concerns. The local government, what do they do? They offer residents a limited number of, and this is no joke, home air purifiers. That's what they're giving residents in San Diego County. This is not a partisan issue. This is bipartisan. I would like you to understand that the Trump administration has actually taken some aggressive action on this. the State Department, our interagency, International River Agency. We got a new executive director appointed by the Trump administration who's much more aggressive on this. The EPA, the U.S. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin has created a task force and has repeatedly come down to the border. They brought us additional financial resources, which, by the way, our congressional delegation on a bipartisan basis has also done good work to get resources. But I want us not just to end with these bills. We'll have a new governor next year, Governor Hilton or Mr. Becerra. But what we need to do is see if that governor can light a fire under these agencies and what we can do on our side, on the legislative side, to finally resolve this issue. It has been 40 years, 50 years of an environmental crisis. We have the ability and the technology to end this and to provide relief to our residents. Please, let's make sure we keep up progress on this issue. With that, I urge an aye vote on SB 58. And thank you for your support for the other bills related to it.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I want to thank the entire San Diego delegation for the support to this issue. Even though it may not fall directly in their districts, there has been consistent support. We have, and that's this body, and I want to thank all of you. You have consistently, unanimously supported calls for emergencies on this to previous federal administrations, the current federal administration. We need all the help we can get. This is a crisis of real, real serious proportions. Now it's not just the water. Now it's literally in the air, and it's hurting people. It's making people sick, and we need to create standards. This is another tool that we need to have in California. I really want to, again, thank Senator Padilla for all his efforts on this, and I ask all of you for your eye vote. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Senate Bill 1337 by Senator Richardson, an act relating to energy.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise to present SB 1337 on behalf of Senator Richardson. SB 1337 requires the CEC to seek to enter into memoranda of understanding with relevant air districts and local governments with transportation, fuels, refining facilities within their jurisdictions. These memoranda of understandings will enable coordination needed to support management of the transportation fuel sector and ensure public health, labor, and consumer protections are maintained. This bill passed out of the Assembly Utilities Energy Committee unanimously and has no opposition. I respectfully ask for an aye vote.

Clerk will read.

Assemblymember Rogers, you are recognized. Thank you so much, Mr. Speaker. I'm here today to present Senate Bill 1423 on behalf of Senator Stern, which requires the Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation to create a consolidated online platform to make a core set of statewide standards, spatial planning data sets publicly available. This is not new regulations or new requirements, just a tool for folks to be able to utilize, and I respectfully ask for an aye vote.

The clerk will read.

Assemblymember Bauer-Cahan, you are recognized. Thank you, Mr. Speaker and members. California is a leader in consumer privacy, and I'm honored to present this bill on behalf of the Pro Tem that updates and expands the right Californians have as it relates to privacy in their insurance. California voters enacted a constitutional right to privacy over 50 years ago and reaffirmed that commitment with the enactment of the California Consumer Privacy Act and the California Privacy Rights Act. but the pro tem realized and has worked for years to correct the fact that our insurance laws which are separate have not been updated since the 1980s and do not contemplate all the ways consumer data is collected and shared today. Specifically the bill prohibits the sale of consumer data and gives consumers more agency over the sharing of their personal information than insurance companies collect. SV 354 gives consumers the right to correct inaccurate information. Consumers are given the right to know what categories of information are collected and with whom it is shared. And finally, they'll be able to delete inaccurate or unnecessary information that insurance companies may hold. This is an important step to bring the insurance industry into alignment with modern consumer privacy standards. And I respectfully ask for your aye vote.

Clerk will read. Senate Bill 327 by Senator McNerney and others in act relating to public utilities.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. SB 327 is a ratepayer protection bill that is closely modeled off of last year's SB 24, which passed the Assembly floor but was vetoed due to a clerical error. SB 327 will bring increased accountability to the state's investor-owned utilities and ensure ratepayer dollars will not be used inappropriately. I respectfully ask for an aye vote.

The clerk will read. Senate Bill 1347 by Senator Nilo, an act relating to pupil health.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise to present this support support measure, SB 1347, on behalf of Senator Nilo, relating to stock albuterol in schools. SB 1347 is a simple cleanup measure that clarifies the existing law for the stocking of albuterol in public schools. Recent amendments were technical in nature and at the request of the CDPH and the Board of Pharmacy. In 2023, the legislature passed AB 1283 on a bipartisan basis, which authorized stock albuterol in public schools. Since the passage of AB 1283, the state has made access to preschool a priority and is now expanded to universal preschool. SB 1347 clarifies that stock albuterol is authorized in all public schools, which now includes preschool. I respectfully ask for your aye vote.

The clerk will read.

Assemblymember Gibson, you are recognized. Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker and members. Members you have heard me talk about Martha King Community Hospital time and time again on this floor So assembly bill 2405 is a straightforward public patient safety measure that would establish a consistent statewide standard for transport of individuals on a 5150 whole our hospitals are being pushed to the breaking point with rising demand, limited resources, and exhausted staff making increasingly difficult to provide a timely and highly qualified care of our community that our community depends on. Facilities like Martha King Community Hospitals located in my district, South Los Angeles, provides critical care to some of the state's most vulnerable at-risk individuals. To address the concerns of oppositions, the Senate amendments are as follows. Clarify that a person being transported by law enforcement must be taken to the closest appropriate designated hospital. Two, remove reporting requirements from law enforcement. Allow flexibility for patient choice. And allow law enforcement to adhere to local written policies and agreement. Assembly Bill 2405 would ensure that vulnerable Californians are able to receive the timely medical services that they deserve, and it would provide a relief to impacted hospitals like Martha King Hospital. I respectfully ask, but I vote.

Clerk will read.

Assemblymember Bryan, you are recognized. Thank you, Mr. Speaker and colleagues. I rise to present AB 1457, a bill that promotes community engagement and environmental justice element development and sets compliance deadlines for existing requirements. This bill is sponsored by the Department of Justice, and I respectfully ask for your aye vote.

The clerk will read.

Assemblymember Soria, you are recognized. Thank you, Mr. Speaker and members. AB 2728 will clarify existing law to ensure California's groundwater management law is working as intended. Under SGMA, groundwater sustainability agencies may collect fees from large groundwater extractors to cover the cost of groundwater monitoring while specifically exempting the de minimis extractors, those that pump less than two acres per fee. However, some agencies depend on other local entities to perform groundwater monitoring that are subject to fee rules under Prop 218 and Prop 26 that create legal confusion on whether they can exempt de minimis extractors under SGMA. In order to eliminate legal confusion, AB 2728 clarifies that the existing groundwater monitoring fee exemption under SGMA meets the legal requirements under Prop 218 and 26. This bill has no opposition and has received no no votes. I respectfully ask for an aye vote.

Thank you very much. I am presenting Assembly Bill 1381, a bill with the goal of protecting students from teachers committing sexual and other egregious misconduct, while also protecting the due process rights of teachers. A recent ProPublica article about teacher misconduct in California highlights serious gaps in our current system of screening and identifying those applying for teaching jobs with a history of sexual and other egregious misconduct This bill is building on the efforts of bipartisan effort, including my colleague, our colleague from Lodi and our colleague from Rancho Santa Margarita, to one, ensure that there is a penalty or potential penalty for teacher job applicants who fail to disclose any past history of sexual misconduct, egregious misconduct. And it also proposes to penalize school districts, superintendents for failing to fully investigate any past history of egregious misconduct. This bill is part of the conversation that we're going to be having in the next couple of days about how do we address the issue of public entity liability. We know that there's been a lot of discussions about how do we prevent, in the first place, child sexual assaults from taking place in our schools. This bill is part of the solution to address the prevention of these tragedies. This bill has no opposition. Respectfully ask for an aye vote.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker and colleagues. AB 672 is a simple, straightforward bill that extends a much-needed tax exemption to assist in the making or refurbishing of low-income housing for our community land trusts. Respectfully ask for your aye vote. Thank you.

assembly member gibson you are recognized thank you very much mr speaker assembly bill 1519 is back with amendments from the Senate. It's the bipartisan support. No, no votes. Respectfully

Thank you, Mr. Speaker and members. AB 1650 is back on concurrence. Senate amendments move PORAC from opposed to neutral. This bill requires privately owned vehicles rented or leased by government agencies for enforcement purposes to be clearly identified with decals, with enforcement mechanisms to ensure compliance. This bill is about safety, transparency, and accountability. For these reasons, I respectfully ask for your aye vote. Thank you.

All right. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am pleased to have Assembly Bill 1755 back on concurrence. This is a Women's Caucus priority. There is no opposition. There are also no known votes. And this is to change how we deal with CalWORKs and the 100-hour rule. I'm super excited to be able to bring this bill forward, and I respectfully ask for an aye vote.

Thank you. I rise in support of this bill as a co-author. And having grown up in a family that used this, this is always a limit where actually a lot of families stopped working because they couldn't in the fear of losing their benefits. So out of respect for the author, thank you for bringing this attention and allowing families to try to work their way out of poverty. And I respectfully ask for your aye vote.

I'll do it again. I respectfully ask for an aye vote.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. AB 1891 is back on concurrence and will allocate 10% of Cal Fire's GGRF monies to beneficial fire. Senate amendments address uncertainty within GGRF funds by broadening the scope of the 10% funding source and allows other sources to be used in the future. The amendments also clarify the 25% allocation to California Native American tribes is part of the 10% funding from GGRF. This bill has received bipartisan support, no opposition, and no no votes. Respectfully ask for an aye vote.

Yes, Mr. Speaker, members. AB 1967 is back in the Assembly on concurrence. AB 1967 will require more timely and responsive investigation by a county welfare agency whenever a youth seeks to enter foster care through self-petition. Senate amendments incorporated technical assistance from the administration and the Department of Social Services. I respectfully ask for your aye vote.

Well, thank you, Mr. Speaker. AB 2539 is back for concurrence. This bill will ratify the tribal state gaming compact between the state of California and the Yurok tribe of the Yurok Reservation. The Yurok tribe is dedicated to protecting natural resources in their homeland and beyond. As the largest tribe in California, with more than 5,000 enrolled members, this compact will protect their public health and economic well-being. I ask for your aye vote for the Yurok people.

It's really tackling one of the things we don't talk about in terms of housing production, local interpretations of the state building code. Amendments in the Senate removed the original contents of the bill, which were absorbed in AB 130 last year, and now it would require the California Building Standards Commission to decide appeals resulting from the administration of state building standards and promulgate code interpretations. It would further require the Commission to review an appeal with stakeholders including but not limited to representatives of the building industry, local agencies having authority to enforce a state building standard, and labor organizations. I will note that AB 306 has received bipartisan support in both houses, no pressure, but it passed earlier today out of the Senate 40-0 and out of the Assembly Housing Committee unanimously on a 12-0 vote. I respectfully urge your aye vote today. Thank you Assembly Member.

Good afternoon, Mr. Speaker and members. AB 750 is back on concurrence. This bill expands access in the Department of Housing and Community Development's portfolio reinvestment program to challenge developments in need of rehabilitation to avoid the loss of precious affordable housing in California. I respectfully ask for an aye vote. Thank you, Assemblymember Quirk-Silva.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. AB 956 is back on concurrence. This bill clarifies existing ADU law by allowing a homeowner to build up to two detached ADUs on a property, provided those units comply with all existing requirements related to size, height, setbacks, as well as health and safety. The amendments taken the Senate maintain consistency with SB 9 and avoid inadvertently triggering density bonus law. I respectfully ask for your aye vote.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Members, AB 2181 is back on concurrence. This bill is co-sponsored by Unite Here International and Unite Here Local 11 and supported by the California Hotel and Lodging Association and Cal Travel Association. AB 2181 is a narrow clarification that ensures that density bonus potential can only be used in valuations for hotels or motels when they are real, approved, and vested. It simply ensures that ground lease rent resets reflect reality, not speculation. This bill is narrow in scope and intentionally focuses on hotels. It is a technical fix with real-world impact. It protects hospitality workers, prevents speculative valuation practices, and keeps housing policy tied to actual production. Thank you, and I respectfully ask for your aye vote.

Thank you. This is SB 750 on behalf of Senator Cortese. this bill will require the California Housing Financing Agency to conduct a comprehensive assessment of potential credit enhancement mechanisms designed to reduce borrowing costs for housing projects that receive financial assistance. It was significantly narrowed from a prior version of the bill. There is no new program. It's just an assessment to determine how these enhancements could complement the state's existing finance tools. An aye vote simply allows CalHFA to study whether these financing tools can help to close gaps so that we can get more affordable homes built. On behalf of Senator Cortese, respectfully ask for your aye vote.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker and members. I am proud to rise here on behalf of Senator Stern to present SB 1128. When my oldest was in TK, she came home with a school-issued laptop, a Chromebook, which made, like, no sense to me. Why are our TK and kindergartners getting laptops? Again, they should be out learning, having social and emotional learning, and learning how to write and read and all these things, and they don't need devices for it. So this bill calls into question that exact practice. It ensures that our local districts won't require students in TK and kindergarten to have school-issued electronic devices. Parents can opt out of that. It also encourages them to review their screen time policies with input from teachers and parents and requires CDE to curate and maintain resources for age-appropriate screen time and device use, as well as guidance on how to transition take-home devices into classroom-based devices by July 1, 2027. And I will say the broader question around what kind of devices our kids are using in school and how much screen time they have in school, I think, is a big question that we will have to confront more next year. I think it's not just TK and K, but all of our elementary schools and how our over-reliance on technology in our schools has been a problem. But we'll confront more of that next year. So with that, respectfully ask for an aye vote.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I'll be brief. I just want to thank the author for bringing this bill forward. I could not agree more with the previous comments, and I do think this is something we'll need to address in future years. I think it's really critical that we reassess the technology we're using in our classrooms, and I respectfully ask for an aye vote.

Respectfully ask for an aye vote.

welfare. Assemblymember Aarons, you are recognized. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise today to present SB 1421 on behalf of Senator McGuire, which aims to reduce poverty and expand college access for current and former foster youth. I respectfully ask for your aye vote. Thank you, Assemblymember

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Members, AB 2168 makes a series of modest, common-sense improvements to ensure California's active transportation program funds are spent effectively and efficiently. Senate amendments now clarify and add provisions requiring ATP applicants to coordinate with transit agencies. Again, this makes modest changes to the guidelines for how funds can be spent. In fact, in most impact provisions makes it clear that money can be clawed back from governments that don't spend it reasonably in a reasonable amount of time. With that, respectfully ask for an aye vote.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker and members. I rise to present AB 1856. back on concurrence. This builds on the work I did last year, AB 1043, which established the age signal law here in California, which goes into effect January 1. This is some cleanup legislation, but essentially what this allows us to do is have platforms understand the age of the people on their platforms so that we can then put forth thoughtful guardrails to keep our kids safe online And with that I respectfully ask for an aye vote Thank you Assemblymember Wicks All debate having ceased clerk will open the roll

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I'm pleased to present AB 2298. That's returned on concurrent Senate amendments narrow the bill to aid implementation with that I respectfully ask for an aye vote

concurrent Senate amendments add narrow provisions of the bill to add implementation at a six-month delay to most provisions this is sports port bill and I respectfully ask for your aye vote thank you assemblymember Irwin

Thank you, Mr. Speaker and members. I rise to present AB 2173, which will ratify the amendments to the tribal state gaming compact between the state and the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians. Agua Caliente's reservation encompasses a large part of my district, which includes the cities of Palm Springs, Rancho Mirage, and Cathedral City. The Tribe's a wonderful partner, working closely with our local governments and communities. They're a major economic engine employing over 3,000 Californians who work within the gaming and non-gaming tribal economic development ventures. This makes them one of the largest employers in the Coachella Valley. The amended compact we ratify today allows a path to growth for the Tribe's gaming facilities to meet customer demand through December 31, 2061, while preserving the Tribe's longstanding commitment to support non-gaming and limited gaming tribes. It's truly an honor to stand here and ask for your aye vote on the ratification of the amended compact for Agua Caliente.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. AB 1448 is back on concurrence, which continues California's leadership against offshore oil drilling. Senate amendments were made to prohibit new federal offshore oil and gas development from using existing state infrastructure. The bill also prevents new state offshore oil leases in national marine sanctuaries in cases of directional drilling. As the federal government considers new offshore oil leasing opportunities, AB 1448 and Cheers California has safeguards in place to respond. I respectfully ask for an aye vote.

Sir. Thank you Thank you. Thank you. . Thank you.
