THE REINTRODUCTION OF AB TWO
THIRTY THREE THAT PAT
S. HOUSE ON A SEVENTY THREE TO
ONE VOTE.
AB TWELVE FORTY EIGHT PROTECT
THE STUDENT'S RIGHT TO WEAR
CULTURAL ADORNMENTS AT
GRADUATION CEREMONIES.
IN RECENT YEARS SCHOOL BOARDS
HAVE ENFORCED A NO ADORNMENT
POLICY THAT PROHIBITS STUDENTS
FROM WEARING CULTURALLY
APPROPRIATE.
ADORNMENTS AT THEIR SICK
GRADUATION CEREMONIES
FOR EXAMPLE NATIVE AMERICAN
STUDENTS ARE ROUTINELY PREVENT
IT FROM WEARING EAGLE FEATHERS.
WHICH SYMBOLIZE PERSONAL
ACHIEVEMENT IN ONE'S OWN PASSAGE
INTO ADULTHOOD. THESE INCIDENTS
REVEAL THAT NO ADORNMENT
POLICIES PREVENT STUDENTS FROM
RECOGNIZING THEIR CULTURAL
HERITAGE WHILE CELEBRATING THIS
SIGNIFICANT PERSONAL MILESTONE.
NOW SPEAKER CALIFORNIA'S DIVERSE
STATE COMPRISED OF STUDENTS OF
VARIOUS ETHNIC RELIGIOUS AND
CULTURAL BACKGROUNDS. BY
PROTECTING A PUPILS RIGHT TO
WEAR CULTURE ENVIRONMENT.
MEMBERS PLEASE GIVE MR GLORIA
YOUR FULL ATTENTION THANK YOU.
THANK YOU MAN SPEAKER.
BY PROTECTING THE PEOPLE'S RIGHT
TO WEAR CULTURAL ADORNMENTS AT
COMMENCEMENT AB TWELVE FORTY
ENHANCES THE DIVERSITY OF
CALIFORNIA'S ACADEMIC
INSTITUTION. TO ADDRESS THE
GOVERNOR'S VETO MESSAGE I INTEND
TO ONCE AGAIN SAT DOWN WITH THE
OPPOSITION TO NEGOTIATE LANGUAGE
THAT APPROPRIATELY BOUNCES
STUDENTS RIGHTS TO FREE
EXPRESSION WITH THE SCHOOLS
RIGHTS TO PREVENT DISRUPTION
FROM GRADUATION CEREMONIES. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN AYE VOTE
THEY DO NOT A SPEAKER.
THANK YOU MISTER HARPER YOU'RE
RECOGNIZED THANK YOU VERY MUCH
MADAM SPEAKER AND MEMBERS.
GRADUATION CEREMONIES MARK THE
CULMINATION OF ACADEMIC SUCCESS
IT IS ALSO A TIME FOR THE LOCAL
EDUCATION AGENCY GOVERNING BOARD
TO DETERMINE THE FOCUS OF THE
CEREMONIES ON ACADEMIC HONORS
AND ACHIEVEMENT. I AM A HUGE
PROPONENT OF LOCAL CONTROL AND
FREEDOM OF SPEECH WHILE THE
AUTHOR MAY ALLUDE TO IT THIS
BILL IS NOT ABOUT FREEDOM OF
SPEECH. IN FACT THE U. S.
CONSTITUTION ALREADY PROTECT THE
FREE EXERCISE OF RELIGION
INCLUDING WEARING RELIGIOUS
ARTICLES BY STUDENTS.
IN FACT THIS BILL IS IDENTICAL
TO AB TWO THIRTY THREE OF TWENTY
SEVENTEEN AS THE AUTHOR STATED
WHICH MADE IT THROUGH BOTH
HOUSES BUT WAS VETOED BY THE
GOVERNOR. BECAUSE OF THESE
PROTECTIONS ALREADY EXISTS.
MADAM SPEAKER PERMISSION TO READ
FROM THE GOVERNOR'S VETO
MESSAGE.
WITHOUT OBJECTION.
STUDENTS IN CALIFORNIA HAVE A
WELL ESTABLISHED.
RIGHT TO EXPRESS THEIR VIEWS
THROUGH SYMBOLIC ACTS UNDER THE
STATE EDUCATION CODE AND THE
FREE CLIP SPEECH CLAUSE OF THE
FIRST A MEMBER OF THE U. S.
CONSTITUTION.
UNDER THESE PRECEDENTS
STUDENT EXPRESSION IS CLEARLY
PROTECTED TO THE EXTENT THAT
THERE IS A DISPUTE. ABOUT WHAT A
STUDENT CAN WEAR AT SCHOOL
GRADUATION CEREMONIES I BELIEVE
THAT THOSE CLOSEST.
TO THE PROBLEM.
PRINCIPALS AND DEMOCRATICALLY
ELECTED SCHOOL BOARDS ARE IN THE
BEST POSITION TO MAKE WISE
JUDGMENTS.
MEMBERS I'M NOT OPPOSED TO THE
CONCEPT OF THIS BILL. IN FACT
IDEA HAPPY TO.
VOTE FOR SIMILAR KIND OF
CONCEPT IF I WAS STILL A MEMBER
THE HUNTINGTON BEACH UNION HIGH
SCHOOL DISTRICT BOARD OF
TRUSTEES BUT I CANNOT VOTE FOR
THIS BILL TODAY THE WAY IT
READS.
IT IS LIKELY A RESULT THAT
NUMEROUS LAWSUITS ADMINISTRATORS
SEEK TO MAINTAIN DIGNITY AT
GRADUATION CEREMONIES BY
ALLOWING SOMEONE DORMANT
ADORNMENTS.
WHILE RESTRICTING OTHERS
FOR EXAMPLE.
MANY AMERICANS MAY REGARD A
CONFEDERATE FLAG AS A SYMBOL OF
RACISM. WHILE OTHERS MAY VIEW IT
AS A SYMBOL OF SOUTHERN HERITAGE
AND MAY ABUSE THIS LAW IN ORDER
TO ENCOURAGE THAT OR MORE
INFLAMMATORY SYMBOLS AND A
GRADUATION CEREMONY.
WELL THAT MAY BE CULTURAL TO
SOME MAY NOT BE OFFENSIVE TO
OTHERS AND WILL DISTRACT FROM
WHAT'S THE STUDENTS.
PARENTS AND ACADEMIA ARE THERE
TO ACTUALLY CELEBRATE THE AT THE
CONCLUSION OF THEIR GRADUATION.
LOCAL EDUCATION AGENCY
GOVERNMENT BOARDS SCHOOL BOARDS
SHOULD BE THE ONES TO ENSURE THE
FOCUS OF THE CEREMONIES IS ON
ACADEMIC HONORS AND ACHIEVEMENT.
NOT THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA MY
COLLEAGUES I THINK THAT THIS CAN
BE SOLVED BY OUR LOCAL SCHOOL
BOARDS. AS AND I THINK THE
GOVERNOR HAS AN EXCELLENT POINT
IS VETO MESSAGE I URGE A VOTE IN
OPPOSITION TO THIS BILL.
THANK YOU MISTER GLORIA WOULD
YOU LIKE TO CLOSE.
I WOULD NOT A SPEAKER AND I
THINK MY COLLEAGUE OF MINE TO
BEACH FIRST COMMENTS I MENTIONED
EARLIER MY COMMENTS AT THIS
PREVIOUSLY PASSED THE HOUSE A
SEVENTY THREE TO ONE A LEADER TO
GUESS WHO THE ONE WAS. A WHO
VOTED OPPOSITION TO THIS BILL.
IT WAS STATED THAT THIS BILL
DOES IS AYE IS REDUNDANT TO
EXISTING LAW.
BUT I WOULD TELL YOU THAT YOU
SHOULD ASK THE STUDENTS FROM
PECHANGA.
IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA WHO
DIDN'T WHO ARE NOT ALLOWED TO
WEAR EAGLE FEATHERS AT THEIR
GRADUATION ASK THEM IF THE LAW
IS CLEAR ABOUT THEIR ABILITY TO
WEAR CULTURAL ADORNMENTS AT
GRADUATION CEREMONIES ASKED THE
YOUNG MAN JUST DOWN THE ROAD EL
GROWTH. WHO'S DENIED CULTURAL A
IT WOULD THE ABILITY TO WEAR HIS
CAN TAKE OFF AT HIS GRADUATION
CEREMONY I HAVE THE UTMOST
RESPECT FOR OUR GOVERNOR BUT THE
TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS THIS IS A
PROBLEM THAT IS INVOLVED IN
EVERY ONE OF OUR SCHOOLS. THIS
HAPPENS REGULARLY AND IT
DESERVES CLARIFICATION BY THIS
BODY THAT THE STUDENTS ARE
ENTITLED TO FREE EXPRESSION WITH
THE CAVIAR OF NOT BEING
DISRUPTIVE AND I WOULD SIMPLY
SAY THIS IS ABOUT CULTURAL
ADORNMENTS THIS IS NOT ABOUT
POLITICAL.
OR OTHER THERE IS A REFERENCE
TO CONFEDERATE FLAG FOR WHICH I
DON'T BELIEVE I CAN TAKE CLOTH
AN EAGLE FEATHER.
IOMEGA ANY THESE OTHER THINGS
THAT WE SEE CURRENTLY IN SO MANY
SCHOOL DISTRICTS.
IS.
WOULD NOT BE WOULD WE BE
PERMITTED IT WOULD NOT BE
PERMITTED THE IDEA IS TO CLARIFY
THE LAW TO ALLOW STUDENTS TO
ENJOY THEIR GRADUATION
CEREMONIES WITHOUT LITIGATION I
THINK THAT'S SOMETHING THAT
EVERY MEMBER OF THIS BODY CAN
SUPPORT. WHO WANTS SEVERAL
LAWSUITS WE SHOULDN'T DO THAT
YOU VOTED FOR THIS PREVIOUSLY
PLEASE VOTE TO PASS THIS BILL
AND I APPRECIATE MY COLLEAGUES

HAS NOT OCCURRED OR A CRUDE SO
RARELY IT ONLY HAPPENS IN A ONCE
EVERY TWO HUNDRED YEARS.

GREAT COMMUNITY ORGANIZER AND
CIVIL RIGHTS LEADER FRANCES JEAN
GRICE.
FRANCIS WAS CONSISTENTLY
PASSIONATE ABOUT MAKING HER
COMMUNITY A BETTER PLACE.
SHE CAME TO SAN BERNARDINO FROM
DETROIT IN DECEMBER OF. NINETEEN
SIXTY TWO WITH HER SON AND
DAUGHTER.
NOT ONLY MADE SAN BERNADINE KNOW
HER HOME.
BUT ALSO MADE SANDRA DINO A
BETTER PLACE.
KNOWING THAT EDUCATION WAS A
CENTER OF SUCCESS
FRANCIS SPENT MUCH OF HER TIME.
ADVOCATING FOR EDUCATIONAL
QUALITY IN SAN BERNARDINO
SCHOOLS.
SHE KNEW THAT SEPARATE WAS NOT
EQUAL.
WE JUST WHY SHE HELPED LEAD THE
CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT AGAINST SO
SCHOOL SEGREGATION.
TAKING THE CASE
THE CALIFORNIA SUPREME COURT
WHERE SHE WON.
THIS LED TO HER AND OTHER
ADVOCATES ORGANIZING THE
COMMUNITY LEAGUE OF MOTHERS.
A GROUP WHICH LED THE MOVEMENT
TO INTEGRATE SANDRA DINO
SCHOOLS.
FRANCES DIDN'T STOP THERE WHEN
HE CAME TO THE BETTERMENT OF HER
COMMUNITY.
SHE UP SHE WAS ALSO A LEADER IN
THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE
DEPENDENCY PREVENTION PROGRAM.
A POVERTY PROGRAM WHICH IS NOW
THE COMMUNITY ACTION PARTNERSHIP

COMMUNITY.
ANOTHER FRANCIS IS PROUD
