MISTER GLORIA.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER. A.
MEMBERS IN THIS.
NORMALLY HIGHLY POLARIZED DEBATE
ABOUT GUN VIOLENCE I RISE THIS
AFTERNOON TO BRING FORWARD A
BILL WHICH I BELIEVE SHOULD
RECEIVE UNANIMOUS SUPPORT ON
THIS FLOOR.
AB TWENTY ONE OH THREE WOULD
ESTABLISH MINIMUM COMMONSENSE
STANDARDS FOR INDIVIDUALS
WISHING TO LEGALLY CARRY A
LOADED CONCEALED WEAPON.
AB WHAT TWENTY ONE OH THREE
WOULD REQUIRE ALL CONCEALED
WEAPON TRAINING COURSES
REQUIRED BY EXISTING OUGHT TO BE
AT LEAST EIGHT HOURS IN LENGTH.
STATE LAW CURRENTLY. ALLOWS FOR
A MAXIMUM OF SIXTEEN HOURS FOR
THESE TRYING TO TRAINING COURSES
BUT HAS NO MINIMUM.
THE BILL ALSO REQUIRES CONCEALED
CARRY PERMITS HE'S TO ACTUALLY
DEMONSTRATE PROFICIENCY ON A
FIRING RANGE.
LASTLY THIS BILL REQUIRE
SHERIFFS AND POLICE CHIEFS TO
DEVELOP SPECIFIC LIVEFYRE
PROFICIENCY STANDARDS FOR
CONCEALED WEAPON APPLICANTS.
AND THAT THOSE STANDARDS ARE
BEING TO BE MADE PUBLIC TO
AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC.
IN CRAFTING THIS LEGISLATION. WE
WORK CLOSELY WITH A.
PROFESSIONALS ON BEHALF AYE AND
RELIED HEAVILY ON BEST PRACTICES
THAT HAVE BEEN ADOPTED BY
CONCEALED WEAPON LICENSING
AUTHORITIES.
AB TWENTY ONE A THREE
EFFECTIVELY CODIFIES INDUSTRY
STANDARDS ENSURES ALL
INDIVIDUALS WITH THE CONCEALED
WEAPONS LICENSE ARE ADEQUATELY
TRAINED.
I ASK THAT YOU JOIN WITH ME THE
CALIFORNIA STATE SHERIFFS
ASSOCIATION AND MOMS DEMAND
ACTION IN
SUPPORT OF THIS IMPORTANT
COMMONSENSE MEASURE I ASK YOUR
AYE THOSE.
THANK YOU MISTER GLORIA MISTER
GIPSON YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH MISTER
SPEAKER AND MEMBERS I RISE IN
SUPPORT OF ASSEMBLY BILL TWENTY
ONCE ALL THREE THAT REQUIRES
THERE BE A EIGHT HOUR AT LEAST
EIGHT HOUR TRAINING. IN ORDER TO
QUALIFY FOR A LICENSE TO HAVE A
CONCEALED WEAPON THIS BILL IS A
COMMON SENSE PIECE OF
LEGISLATION ALL PEOPLE WHO ARE
ALLOWED TO CARRY A FIREARM IN
THE PUBLIC SHOULD. KNOW HOW TO
USE THAT BAR ARM IN A VERY SAFE
MATTER I WANT TO THANK THE I'M
KINDA GENTLEMAN FROM SAN DIEGO
FOR BRINGING FORTH THIS
LEGISLATION AND CERTAINLY WOULD.
ASK MY COLLEAGUES FOR YOUR AYE
VOTE ON ASSEMBLY BILL TWENTY ONE
ZERO THREE.
THANK YOU MISS GIPSON.
MR SHAMUS YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
I RISE BECAUSE I THINK.
.
RESPONSIBLE GUN OWNERSHIP IS
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT.
AND IF YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE A
WEAPON YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND.
HOW IT'S CONDUCTED?
BUT I HAVE A OUT A QUESTION TO
THE AUTHOR.
WITHOUT OBJECTION.
QUESTION THE AUTHOR I KNOW READ
YOUR BILL WITH INTEREST AND I
NOTICE THAT THERE'S.
NO PLACE IN HERE. ALLOW ANY
EXCEPTION.
FOR THOSE WHO HAVE SERVED IN THE
MILITARY CHEN QUALIFIED WITH THE
WEAPON.
AND FOR BACKGROUND INFORMATION
ON THIS.
EVERY YEAR.
EVERY YEAR THAT YOU'RE IN THE
MILITARY YOU'RE REQUIRED TO
SPEND ONE WEEK.
IN PREPARATION.
WE CALL SNAPPING CLEANING
CLASSES EVERYTHING ELSE.
AND THEN THE FOLLOWING WEEK.
MORE THAN A WEEK FORTY HOURS
BECAUSE IT ALWAYS STARTS ABOUT
FOUR O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING. TO
FOR AN EVENING SIXTEEN HUNDRED.
WELL WE ACTUALLY SHOOT LITERALLY
HUNDREDS OF ROUNDS BOTH RIFLE
AND PISTOL.
I'VE DONE THAT FOR OF MY THREE
DECADES IN THE MARINE CORPS
QUALIFIED EXPERT AND RIFLE AND
PISTOL.
WITH THIS BILL RECOGNIZE THE
TRAINING THAT I HAVE THAT I
DON'T HAVE TO GO THROUGH SOME
EIGHT HOUR CLASS. BECAUSE I HAVE
LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF HOURS IN
TRAINING.
DOES THIS BILL BECKETT EXCEPTION
OF FOR THOSE WHO ARE SERVE OUR
COUNTRY.
HAPPY TRY RESPOND MR.
THE SPEAKER I WOULD SAY THAT
CURRENTLY ITS CURRENT FORM IT
DOES NOT.
THIS IS THE FIRST OF THAT ISSUE
HAS BEEN RAISED IT WITH GONE
THROUGH.
TO COMMITTEES OF THIS
LEGISLATURE THAT IT SHOULD NOT
BEEN BROUGHT UP BEFORE.
BUT WE ARE CLEARLY NOT AT THE
FINISH LINE SOME HAPPY TO WORK
WITH MEMBERS MEMBERS TO ADDRESS
ADDITIONAL CONCERNS OF RIGHT NOW
THERE IS NO MINIMUM REQUIREMENT.
AS YOU RIGHTLY KNOW THOSE WHO
SERVE IN THE ARMED FORCES DO YOU
HAVE A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF
TRAINING THE SAME CANNOT BE SAID
FOR MANY OF THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE
CONCEALED CARRY PERMITS TO OR
ENOUGH IN OUR COMMUNITY TODAY IN
CALIFORNIA.
AND MISTER DALLI YOU ARE
RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER MEMBERS
A.
AS SOMEONE WHO HAS THE PRIVILEGE
TO.
.
HOLD ONE OF THESE PERMITS I
WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY THAT
TIME.
I'VE HAD IT FOR MANY MANY YEARS.
DID SIXTEEN HOURS OF TRAINING.
.
AND THEN YOU HAVE TO EVERY OTHER
YEAR YOU HAVE TO DO. A REFRESHER
COURSE.
AND I DID THE TRAINING I AM
GOING TO SUPPORT THE BILL TODAY
BECAUSE I I KNOW THAT LAW
ENFORCEMENT SUPPORTS IT AND MOST
THE FOLKS TO.
CARRY THESE PERMITS ALREADY.
MEET THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENT OF
THIS BILL. BUT MY QUESTION IS
THAT TIME YOU KNOW I FIND IT
REALLY FASCINATING THAT TO ON
THIS FLOOR WE REGULATELAW
ABIDING CITIZENS THIS BILL IS
BASICALLY. AN ADDITION TO THE
REGULATION THAT WE ALREADY HAVE.
THE BAR SET HIGHER. AND WE HAVE
THOUSANDS OF FELONS.
IN CALIFORNIA.
WHO HAVE FIREARMS
THROUGH THE APPS PROGRAM THAT WE
DON'T?
GO DO SOMETHING ABOUT AND THAT'S
THE FRUSTRATING PART OF YESES
SOMEBODY WHO.
MEETS THE LAW AND THEIR
QUIETNESS OF LAWS IS TO SEE
FOLKS BE ABLE TO.
BREAK THE LAW AND NOT US GO
AFTER SO I WILL BE SUPPORTING
YOUR BILL TODAY BUT I WOULD.
LIKE TO SEE THIS THIS ASSEMBLY
IN THIS HOUSE AGO AFTER THE
FOLKS WHO ARE BREAKING THE LAWS
AND NOT AFTER AND PERMIT LAW
ABIDING CITIZENS.
ENGLISH DALLY MS MELINDA'S YOU
ARE RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER.
PERMISSION TO READ.
WITHOUT OBJECTION THANK YOU.
I AM EXTREMELY PROUD OF THE
PROGRAM THAT WE HAVE HERE IN
CALIFORNIA ARE CALIFORNIA CCW
PERMIT HOLDERS I WOULD SAY
THERE'S NO PROBLEMS. WE HAVEN'T
HAD ANY PROBLEMS IN CALIFORNIA
RECEIVED W. HOLDERS I THINK IT
IS BECAUSE OF THE EXISTING
SYSTEM. WE HAVEN'T HAD ANY
INCIDENTS I'VE HEARD OF HEARING
CALIFORNIA SO IT'S NOT CHANGED
SOMETHING A FORMULA THAT IS
WORKING EXTREMELY WELL.
THOSE ARE THE WORDS OF THE
CHAIRMAN OF THE PUBLIC SAFETY
COMMITTEE HERE IN THE ASSEMBLY.
SO.
WE HAVE SOME MEMBERS WHO SEEM TO
AGREE WITH ME THAT THE SYSTEM IS
WORKING.
.
SOME OF THE.
MEMBERS OF ALREADY SPOKEN HAVE
BROUGHT ISSUES WITH THIS BILL.
THE FACT THAT IT DOESN'T ADDRESS
THE TRAINING THAT MILITARY
MEMBERS MAY HAVE HAD.
THE FACT THAT.
COUNTY SHERIFFS ARE REALLY
ALREADY IMPLEMENTING THESE TYPES
OF REQUIREMENTS.
SO IT SEEMS.
I JUST I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE
POINT OF THIS BILL BRINKLEY.
DON'T FIX SOMETHING THAT ISN'T
BROKEN.
THESE REQUIREMENTS ALREADY IN
PLACE AND I.
I MYSELF DON'T KNOW OF ANY
PROBLEMS THAT WE'VE HAD WITH CCW
HOLDERS IN THE STATE I KNOW WHAT
THE PROBLEMS WE'VE HAD WITH
PEOPLE WHO AREN'T SUPPOSED TO
HAVE GUNS. LIKE THOSE THAT ARE
ON ON THE APPS DATABASE I KNOW
WHAT THE PROBLEMS OF THEM BOYS
CCW HOLDERS.
I'M NOT AWARE OF THEM SO I WOULD
URGE NO VOTE.
MISTER HARPER YOU ARE RECOGNIZED
THANK YOU VERY MUCH MISTER
SPEAKER AND MEMBERS.
ONE THINGS I THINK IT'S
IMPORTANT RECOGNIZES THAT WE
FIND OURSELVES IN THE BLIND.
OF THIS CONCEALED CARRY PERMIT
ISSUE IN LARGE PART BECAUSE OF
THE STATE LEGISLATURE'S DECISION
TO BAN OPEN CARRY.
BECAUSE IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION
ABOUT PERSONS FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT
TO BE ABLE TO CARRY A FIREARM IF
YOU BANNED OPEN CARRY.
AND YOU TRY TO MAKE IT AS
DIFFICULT AS POSSIBLE TO HAVE A
CONCEALED WEAPON. THEN YOU'RE
PUTTING PEOPLE IN AN INABILITY
BE ABLE EXERCISE THEIR OWN
SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS.
ONE OF THINGS THAT I DO QUESTION
HERE IS WATER THE COSTS
WHAT'S GOING TO BE THE BURDEN TO
BE ABLE TO GO THROUGH A PROGRAM
LIKE THIS. IN OUR WE INDEED
SETTING UP A SYSTEM WHERE PEOPLE
HAVE TO HAVE A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF
MONEY A CERTAIN. AMOUNT OF
WEALTH JUST TO SIMPLY EXERCISE
THEIR RIGHT TO BEAR A FIREARM.
MISTER SPEAKER A.
I ASK THIS QUESTION AND I URGE A
NO VOTE ON THIS BILL.
SEEING NO ADDITIONAL DISCUSSION
OR DEBATE ON THE ITEM BEFORE THE
ASSEMBLY.
MISTER GLORIA YOU MAY CLOSE
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER I WANT
TO THANK MY COLLEAGUES FOR
ROBUST DEBATE ON THIS IMPORTANT
PIECE OF LEGISLATION.
AND JUST TO BE RESPONSIVE
BECAUSE I RECOGNIZE THIS IS THE
MID POINT IN THE LEGISLATIVE
PROCESS OF BUT WE CAN HAVE
ADDITIONAL CONVERSATIONS ABOUT
PROVISIONS IN THIS BILL AS THEY
ADDRESS OUR MILITARY VETERANS I
BELIEVE WE TAKEN AT LEAST TWO
VOTES. LIKE THAT ALREADY THE
SESSION WE COULD PROBABLY DO
THAT AGAIN.
I WOULD SAY THAT IF YOU'RE
INTERESTED IN ADDRESSING
ADDITIONAL GUN SAFETY
LEGISLATION.
THE VOTERS OF CALIFORNIA OF
INVESTED THAT ABILITY IN EVERY
SINGLE ONE OF US AND YOU CAN
INTRODUCE A BILL IF YOU WANT TO
TAKE THAT ON.
THE LAST THING I WANT TO ADDRESS
THE CONCERN THAT I HAVE HEARD
THROUGHOUT THE LEGISLATIVE
PROCESS BY SOME WHO WOULD LIKE
TO SUGGEST THAT THIS IS A
SOLUTION IN SEARCH OF A PROBLEM.
AND I REJECT THAT ARGUMENT
FORCEFULLY.
BECAUSE THE ANSWER THAT QUESTION
REALLY ASK WHY CAN'T WE HOW WHY
DO WE WAIT UNTIL WE HAVE A
TRAGEDY OF SOME KIND FOR US TO
PUT FORWARD A PIECE OF
LEGISLATION THAT IS REALLY WHAT
THAT ARGUMENT IS. AND I DON'T
THINK WHAT ANY OF US WANT TO SEE
ANOTHER TRAGEDY WE CAN TAKE
ACTION TODAY NOT TO PENALIZE LAW
ABIDING. GUN OWNERS BUT TO
SIMPLY TO ASK THEM TO PROVE
PROFICIENCY THE ABILITY TO%
UTILIZE AND STORE THEIR GUN
SAFELY.
THAT'S NOTHING THERE'S NOTHING
WRONG WITH THAT THERE IS A
MINIMUM STANDARD OF FOR FOLKS TO
FOLLOW ON AND I DON'T SEE THAT
AS BURDENSOME.
IMPORTANTLY THE SHERIFF'S DON'T
SEE THAT AS BURDENSOME WHAT THIS
DOES IS STANDARDIZED ACROSS THIS
GREAT STATE OF OURS WELL WITH
THE MINIMUM STANDARDS BEFORE HE
PERMITTED TO WALK AROUND IN
PUBLIC WITH A LOADED GUN.
AND SO. I THINK THIS IS WHERE
THE LEGISLATION IT'S COMMONSENSE
LEGISLATION JUST A FEW WEEKS AGO
ALL OF YOUR OFFICES WERE VISITED
BY CITIZEN VOLUNTEERS OFTEN MANY
OF THEM IN RED SHIRTS MANY OF
THEM OTHER SOME OF THEM FATHERS.
SOME OF THEM SURVIVORS OF GUN
VIOLENCE
ASKING YOU TO SUPPORT THIS BILL.
AND SO I SAY THIS AFTERNOON
COLLEAGUES THAT I ASK YOU TO
JOIN ME IN ESTABLISHING.
SOME MODEST BUT MEANINGFUL GUN
SAFETY LEGISLATION FOR THOSE WHO
WISH TO WALK AROUND IN PUBLIC
WITH A LOADED GUN.
LET'S SHOW THOSE VOLUNTEERS WHO
VISIT YOU JUST A FEW WEEKS AGO.
THAT IN THIS STATE.
THAT IN CALIFORNIA UNLIKE IN
WASHINGTON DC THAT WE CAN DO

MR LOW. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
MISTER SPEAKER AB NINETEEN FORTY
SEVEN MAINTAINS INTEGRITY OF
ELECTORAL PROCESS.
BY LIMITING THE ABILITY OF
SIGNATURE GATHER TO RECEIVE
PAYMENT BY SIGNATURE OF THESE
INDIVIDUALS ARE COMMONLY
REFERRED TO AS BOUNTY HUNTERS.
THIS PRACTICE THEIR GRADES THE
INTEGRITY OF OUR DIRECT
DEMOCRACY AND THIS STEP PROCESS
BECAUSE THE BEHAVIOR IS BASED ON
THE BOUNTY HUNTERS BOTTOM LINE
AND NOT THE POLICY.
THIS BILL HELPS MAINTAIN THAT
TAKE B. OF THE INITIATIVE
PROCESS AND STILL ALLOWS FOR
INDIVIDUALS TO BE PAID. HOURLY
OF OR BY STIPEND I RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR AYE VOTE.
THANK YOU MISTER LOWE MISTER
HARPER YOUR RECOGNIZE THANK YOU
VERY MUCH I MISTER SPEAKER AND
MEMBERS. AYE THIS BILL IN MY
OPINION IS A SALT ON THE
GRASSROOTS PROCESS OF COLLECTING
BALLOT ISSUES HERE IN THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA.
ACCORDING TO A REPORT BY THE
NONPARTISAN CENTER FOR
GOVERNMENTAL STUDIES NO I
CALIFORNIA INITIATIVES IS WIDELY
EXCLUSIVELY ON VOLUNTEER SINCE
NINETEEN EIGHTY TWO. AND VERY
FEW HAVE USED VOLUNTEERS AT ALL
IT INDICATES THAT THERE'S A
DIFFICULTY IN ORGANIZING TO
STATING A GRASSROOTS MOVEMENT
CAPABLE OF COLLECTING SEVERAL
HUNDRED THOUSAND SIGNATURES.
I WOULD ARGUE THAT INSTEAD
EIGHTY.
EXTENSION OF THE PERIOD OF BE
ABLE TO GATHER SIGNATURES TO A
FULL YEAR WOULD ACTUALLY.
ACCOMPLISH WHAT THE AUTHOR IS
TRYING TO SEE.
WHICH IS RELYING LESS ON THE
PAID SIGNATURE GATHERERS MOURN
GRASSROOTS ACTIVITY AND MORE ON
VOLUNTEERS.
I WE ALREADY HAVE A SYSTEM IN
OUR BALLOT INITIATIVES A WHERE
THEY'RE ONLY BEING I HEARD
DURING GENERAL ELECTIONS EVERY
TWO YEARS AND INSTEAD EXTENDING
THE TIME WOULD BE A MUCH BETTER
REVENUE.
ON THIS I BELIEVE THAT THIS
WOULD LIMIT THE PUBLIC'S.
PARTICIPATION IN THE BALLOT
INITIATIVE PROCESS AND I
UNDERSTAND THAT THE STATE
LEGISLATURE.
WOULD BE INTERESTED OFTEN IN
PROTECTING ITS OWN TURF UP
BECAUSE THE BALLOT ISSUE PROCESS
WAS DESIGNED FOR THE VOTERS ARE
TO BE ABLE TO GO AROUND THE
CALIFORNIA STATE LEGISLATURE BUT
INSTEAD. WE SHOULD GRANT THAT
OUT WE SHOULD RECOGNIZE THE
AUTHORITY OF THE VOTERS ON THIS
ISSUE. OF THIS IS GOING TO
INCREASE THE COST FOR INITIATIVE
PARTICIPANTS ARE TRYING TO USE
US SOME SORT OF SALARY.
OR WAGE I EFFORT I IS GOING TO
BE MORE COSTLY INSTEAD OF.
THE PERCH SIGNATURE.
EFFORT OUT WHICH PAYS FOLKS FOR
THE ACTUAL PREDICT PRODUCTIVITY
THAT THE INDEED GIVE AYE TO THE
CAMPAIGN TO QUALIFY SPOT
SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO NOTE THAT
THE GOVERNOR HAS PREVIOUSLY
VETOED SIMILAR LEGISLATION S. B.
C. ONE SIXTY EIGHT WHICH WAS
CARRIED BY CORPORATE NOT.
TWENTY ELEVENI WOULD HAVE DONE
A VERY SIMILAR THING IN IT WAS
VETOED BY GOVERNOR BROWN. I
THINK PART OF THAT IS BECAUSE
GOVERNOR'S EVEN REALIZE THAT
THEY DON'T WANT TO SQUELCH THE
POWER OF THEIR OWN IN FUTURE
GOVERNOR'S BECAUSE SOMETIMES THE
BALLOT INITIATIVE PROCESS. IS
AGAIN AWAY TO GO AROUND THE
STATE LEGISLATURE AND GO
DIRECTLY TO THE VOTERS SOMETHING
THAT I'M SURE THAT EVERY
GOVERNOR WOULD ACTUALLY WANT TO
BE ABLE TO KEEP. AND I ALSO
BELIEVE THAT THIS BILL IS
POTENTIALLY UNCONSTITUTIONAL
CALIFORNIA CARTS OF NOTED AYE
THAT THERE ARE THAT THESE ARE
AMONG THE MOST PRECIOUS RIGHTS
OF OUR DEMOCRATIC PROCESS IT IS
THE DUTY THE COURTS.
JEALOUSLY GUARD OF THESE RIGHTS
FROM LEGISLATIVE INTERFERENCE
I BELIEVE THAT THIS BILL IS ALL
ABOUT LEGISLATIVE INTERFERENCE
AND OBSTRUCTION TO THE BALLOT
INITIATIVE PROCESS I WOULD URGE
MY COLLEAGUES TO VOTE NO. AND
KEEP THEIR HANDS OFF THE BALLOT
ISSUE PROCESS
GIVEN MORE TIME.
BUT I THINK THIS IS
OBSTRUCTIONIST AND DEFINITELY
SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD NOT
THROW UP IN FOUGHT AGAINST THE
VOTERS OF THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA.
I URGE YOU KNOW VOTE.
SEEING NO ADDITIONAL.
DISCUSSION OR DEBATE ON THE ITEM
MR LOW YOU MAY CLOSE THANK YOU
VERY MUCH MS SPEAKER I JUST
WANTED TO REFERENCE THAT THE
STATE OF OREGON HAS PASSED A
SIMILAR LAW. IN WHICH THE COURTS
HAVE A POLL HAVE HELD A THAT
SPECIFIC LAW I'D THAT'S
FUNDAMENTALLY FOCUSES ON AT
GETTING RID OF THE INCENTIVIZING
OF SUCH UNETHICAL CONDUCT. AND
FACT I WAS JUST BUST JUST BUT A
FEW MONTHS AGO I WAS.
AT A GROCERY STORE.
NEARBY IN WHICH I SAW PITCH IN
THERE TOGETHER COME TO ME AND
ASKED ME. TO SIGN THIS
PARTICULAR PETITION AND AS I
BEGAN TO ENGAGE IN A THOUGHTFUL
DIALOG INDIVIDUAL THEN QUICKLY
REALIZED THAT IT WAS NOT WORTH
THIS INDIVIDUALS TIME TO TALK TO
ME ABOUT THIS ISSUE. AND MOVED
ON TO THE NEXT PERSON WE DON'T
WANT TO ALLOW THIS PROCESS TO
CONTINUE THIS INDEED THESE
INDIVIDUALS CAN STILL BE PAID.

THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER I RISE
TODAY IS CHAIR OF THE CALIFORNIA
LEGISLATIVE BLACK CAUCUS.
TO PRESENT ACR NINETY A WHICH
RECOGNIZES THE FIFTIETH
ANNIVERSARY OF THE POOR PEOPLE'S
CAMPAIGN.
LED BY SOUTHERN CHRISTIAN
LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE AND DOCTOR
MARTIN LUTHER KING JUNIOR THE
POOR PEOPLE'S CAMPAIGN BROUGHT
TOGETHER POOR PEOPLE ACROSS THE
NATION TO IMPROVE THE LIVES. OF
ALL AMERICANS AFFECTED BY
POVERTY.
THE POOR PEOPLE'S CAMPAIGN MAKE
EXPANDED THE GOALS OF SCLC
BEYOND CIVIL RIGHTS FOR AFRICAN
AMERICANS
THE CORNERSTONE EVENT OF THE
CAMPAIGN WAS TO BE A NEW MARCH
ON WASHINGTON. ORIGINALLY SET
FOR APRIL TWENTY SIX TWENTY
SECOND NINETEEN SIXTY EIGHT. BUT
WAS POSTPONED BY TO MAY TWELFTH
NINETEEN SIXTY EIGHT AFTER THE
ASSASSINATION OF DR KING.
THE POOR PEOPLE'S CAMPAIGN WAS
THE LAST ORGANIZED EFFORT BY DR
KING BEFORE HIS DEATH.
DESPITE THESE EFFORTS THE STATUS
OF POOR PEOPLE HAS NOT CHANGED
FOR THE BETTER AT ALL.
IMPOVERISHED INDIVIDUALS AND
FAMILIES FACE DEVASTATING
HOUSING CRISIS.
FOOD DESERT'S BROKEN SCHOOL
SYSTEMS AND JOB INSTABILITY.
AS WE REMEMBER ANOTHER GREAT
WORK OF DOCTOR KING AND THE SCLC
WE MUST REMIND OURSELVES THAT
WE'RE LIVING IN A TIME WHERE THE
AMERICAN DREAM. SEEMS
UNATTAINABLE WERE INCOME
INEQUALITY CONTINUES TO POLARIZE
AND WHERE THE ACHIEVEMENT GAP
WIDENS.
WE HEAR THAT EDUCATION IS THE
GREAT EQUALIZER. BUT NOT BY
ITSELF.
ACCORDING TO STUDIES BY THE
NATIONAL BUREAU OF ECONOMIC
RESEARCH AT UC BERKELEY. DR KING
EMPHASIZED THE NEED FOR POOR
WHITES BLACKS LATINOS ASIANS AND
NATIVE AMERICANS TO UNITE.
HE ASSERTED THAT THE POOR
PEOPLE'S CAMPAIGN WOULD ONLY BE
SUCCESSFUL IF THE POOR COULD
COME TOGETHER ACROSS ALL THE
OBSTACLES AND BARRIERS SET UP TO
DIVIDE US.
THE POOR PEOPLE'S CAMPAIGN NEW
THAT POVERTY HAS NO RACE.
WE AS LEGISLATORS MUST DO OUR
PART IN ENSURING THAT NO ONE
REMAINS IN THE SHADOWS WORDS
LEFT BEHIND.
AS HUMAN BEINGS THERE MUST BE A
COMMON THREAD OF COMPASSION
AMONG ALL OF US.
AND A DESIRE TO DO MORE FOR
THOSE WHO HAVE LESS.
THE BLACK CAUCUS IS PROUD TO
ACKNOWLEDGE THE WORK IT OF GREAT
LEADERS LIKE DOCTOR KING AND
URGE YOU ALL TO FOLLOW IN HIS
FOOTSTEPS TO UNITE AS A HUMAN
RACE. DESPITE PERCEIVED
DIFFERENCES.
OR BARRIERS.
COLLEAGUES I HUMBLY ASK FOR YOUR
AYE VOTE ON HR NINETY EIGHT. AND
I RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT THE
FIRST ROW BE OPENED FOR CO

KALRA. BE ADDED AS A JOINT
AUTHOR ON THIS MEASURE.

OUR COLLEAGUE FROM PASADENA.
ABOUT HALF OF THE ASIAN PACIFIC
ISLANDER LEGISLATIVE CAUCUS I
RISE IN SUPPORT OF HR NINETY
EIGHT. IN COMMEMORATION OF THE
FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY OF THE POOR
PEOPLE'S CAMPAIGN.
IN MAY OF NINETEEN SIXTY SEVEN
DOCTOR MARTIN LUTHER KING JUNIOR
DESCRIBED THE SOCIAL CLIMATE
CHANGE. AS A SHIFT FROM THE ERA
OF CIVIL RIGHTS TO THE ERA OF
HUMAN RIGHTS.
DOCTOR KING'S WORDS AND POWERFUL
IDEAS TO A NOT THE POOR PEOPLE'S
CAMPAIGN SERVED AS A BEACON OF
HOPE FOR THOSE WHO ARE
SUFFERING.
AND REMAINED AS A MESSAGE OF
UNITY.
HE CALLED FOR MASS ORGANIZATION
AS THE KEY TO EMPOWERMENT CHANGE
AND REFORM.
TODAY FIFTY YEARS SINCE THE
CAMPAIGN BEGAN WE REFLECT UPON
THE CONDITION OF LIFE IN
AMERICA.
AND IN OUR HOME OF CALIFORNIA.
THE API COMMUNITY THE POVERTY
RATE REMAINS A MAJOR CONCERN
ESPECIALLY WHEN WE DIG DEEPER
INTO THE ASIAN NATIVE. NATIVE
HAWAIIAN AND PACIFIC ISLANDERS
SUBGROUPS.
IN CALIFORNIA THE NUMBER OF
API'S LIVING IN POVERTY IS
NEARLY AT FIVE HUNDRED FORTY
THOUSAND. THE NUMBER FOR NATIVE
HAWAIIAN AND PACIFIC ISLANDER
COMMUNITIES IN CALIFORNIA'S
NEARLY A TWENTY SEVEN THOUSAND.
WE SEE THESE NUMBERS ON THE RISE
CAUSED BY MANY DIFFERENT FACTORS
INCLUDING CALIFORNIA'S HOUSING
CRISIS A LOT OF HELP ACCESS. BUT
ALSO BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF
HONEST DIALOGUE WITH ERIC
COMMUNITIES ABOUT POVERTY.
ON TUESDAY MAY TWENTY FIRST
NINETEEN SIXTY EIGHT. THOUSANDS
OF POOR PEOPLE SET UP A TENT
CITY ON THE CAPITOL MALL FORCING
THOSE IN THE HALLS OF POWER TO
SEE THE FACES OF THE POOR WHO
HAD COME TO LOBBY THEIR ELECTED
REPRESENTATIVES.
THIS WAS RESURRECTION CITY.
THE CLIMAX OF THE POOR PEOPLE'S
CAMPAIGN UP PRESENCE IN OUR
NATION'S CAPITAL A SOLIDARITY

SIXTY EIGHT WILL BETWEEN FIFTY
THOUSAND A HUNDRED THOUSAND
PEOPLE.
PROTESTING RATTLING AND CALLING
ON THEIR LEADERS. IN THE CAPITAL
TO ACTUALLY LISTEN TO THEIR
CONCERNS.
THE NEXT DAY BEGAN THE BEGINNING
A FORCEFUL POLICE ACTION TO
DISBAND THE CAMP.
AS WE LOOK BACK ON THE POOR
PEOPLE'S CAMPAIGN WE RECOGNIZE
THAT WE STILL LIVE IN A SOCIETY
WHERE MILLIONS OF OUR COMMUNITY
MEMBERS UNDER RESOURCED. AND
THAT ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL
INEQUITY STILL EXIST.
AS WE REFLECT ON RESURRECTION
CITY LET US RESURRECT OUR FIGHT.
FOR ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL JUSTICE
WE MUST CONTINUE TO FIGHT FOR
ACT EQUITABLE ECONOMIC
OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL AND REMEMBER
THAT THE UNDERLYING CORE. OF THE
POOR PEOPLE'S CAMPAIGN WAS AN
ECONOMIC BILL OF RIGHTS WITH
VERY SPECIFIC BUDGET AND POLICY
DEMANDS A CONGRESS INCLUDING A
THIRTY BILLION DOLLAR ANTI
POVERTY PACKAGE AS WE GO THROUGH
BILLS AND BUDGET THIS YEAR. LET

THIS GONZALEZ FLETCHER.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER I RISE
TODAY TO PRESENT SB SEVEN EIGHTY
FIVE WHICH WOULD PROHIBIT THE
INCLUSION OF A PERSON'S
IMMIGRATION STATUS IN A PUBLIC
COURT RECORD UNLESS THE PARTY
SEEKING ITS INCLUSION OBTAINS A
RULING BY THE PRESIDING JUDGE.
THAT THE EVIDENCE IS RELEVANT.
RECENTLY WE'VE SEEN A MASSIVE
DROP IN CRIMES BEING REPORTED
FROM THE IMMIGRANT COMMUNITY DUE
TO A FEAR THAT THEIR STATUS WILL
BE REVEALED IN THEY'LL BE
DEPORTED.
WE CANNOT HAVE A SITUATION WHICH
VICTIMS ARE RELUCTANT TO REPORT
CRIMES TESTIFIES WITNESSES OR
PURSUE JUSTICE IN CALIFORNIA
COURTS. THIS BILL IS RECEIVED
UNANIMOUS BIPARTISAN SUPPORT AND
TO ASSEMBLY POLICY COMMITTEES I
RESPECTFULLY ASK YOUR AYE VOTE.

MISTER ALAN. YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
I RISE IN OPPOSITION TO YOU.
SB SEVEN EIGHTY FIVE.
ANOTHER BAD BILL BY.
SENATOR WIENER.
ALL THIS IS DESIGNED INTERFERE
WITH ICE AGES THE GOAL HERE IS
CLEAR TO DISSUADE ICE FROM
SEEKING TO REST INDIVIDUALS IN
COURT SETTINGS.
HOWARD THIS BILL SIMPLY DOES NOT
DO THAT.
S. B. SEVENTY FIVE DOES NOTHING
TO ADDRESS THE UNDERLYING
UNDERLYING REASONS ICE AGENTS
MAY MAKE AN IMMIGRATION RELATED
ARREST AT A COURTHOUSE.
ICE AGENTS DON'T SIT IN
COURTROOMS WAITING FOR
INDIVIDUALS TO BE IDENTIFIED AS
BEING IN THIS COUNTRY ILLEGALLY.
THEY SHOW UP IN THE COURT TO
ARREST A SPECIFIC AND YOU
INDIVIDUAL TARGETED IN ADVANCED.
AS ARTICULATED BY THE U. S.
ATTORNEY GENERAL JEFF SESSIONS.
IN A LETTER TO CALIFORNIA'S
SUPREME COURT CHIEF JUSTICE TANI
KETIL SIX IQ A.
MANY INDIVIDUALS TAKEN TO
BECAUSE THE COURT HOUSE OF
CRIMINAL CONVICTIONS
BUT I NO LONGER TURNED OVER
FEDERAL AGENTS BY LOCAL LAW
ENFORCEMENT FOR COUNTY JAILS.
AS CALIFORNIA'S.
DEMOCRATS UNFORTUNATELY CONTINUE
TO ATTEMPT TO THWART THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT'S ABILITY TO ARREST
INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE COMMITTED
CRIMES IN COUNTY JAILS. ICE
AGENTS ARE BEING FORCED TO MAKE
ARRESTS IN PUBLIC PLACES AND
MUST TAKE SAFETY INTO ACCOUNT.
BECAUSE COURTHOUSE VISITORS ARE
TYPICALLY SCREEN UPON ENTRY TO
SEARCH FOR WEAPONS AND OTHER
CONTRABAND THE SAFETY RISK FOR
THE ARRESTING OFFICERS AND
PERSONS BEING ARRESTED. ARE
SUBSTANTIALLY DECREASED.
WE MUST.
ENSURE THE SAFETY OF OUR FEDERAL
IMMIGRATION AUTHORITIES SB SEVEN
EIGHTY FIVE IS ABOUT IT ALLOWS
YOU BLANKS THAT.
WHAT'S YOUR POINT OF ORDER.
HOUSE THAT HE SPEAKS TO THE
MERIT OF THIS FILM NOT SURE WHAT

PLEASE PROCEED TO CONFINE YOUR
COMMENTS DIRECTLY TO THE BILL IN

UNNECESSARY CURRENT LAW ALREADY

ALL OF OUR IMMIGRANT COMMUNITIES

CHOOSE COMMENTS MISTER CHIU YOU
MAY PROCEED ON THE ITEM THANK
YOU MISTER SPEAKER SINCE THE TWO
THOUSAND SIXTEEN ELECTION WE
HAVE SEEN A SIGNIFICANT DROP. IN
CRIMES THAT ARE BEING REPORTED
BY OUR IMMIGRANT COMMUNITIES
AROUND OUR COUNTRY AND IN
CALIFORNIA WE NEED OUR COURTS TO
BE ACCESSIBLE TO ALL
CALIFORNIANS REGARDLESS OF
IMMIGRANT STATUS. WE CAN HAVE A
SITUATION WHERE VICTIMS WHO
HAPPEN TO BE OF IMMIGRANT
BACKGROUNDS ARE RELUCTANT TO
REPORT CRIMES TESTIFIES
WITNESSES OR PURSUE JUSTICE IN
OUR CALIFORNIA COURTS.
EVERY YEAR WE LISTEN TO THE
