BEHALF OF SENATOR WIENER SB
THREE ONE FOUR WILL PROVIDE
MUCH NEEDED RELIEF FOR
CALIFORNIA'S LOCAL RESTAURANTS
AND BARS TO ENSURE THEY'RE ABLE
TO RECOVER ECONOMICALLY AFTER
THE COVER NINETEEN PANDEMIC.
EARLIER THIS YEAR THIS
COMMITTEE HEARD ASSEMBLY BILL
SIXTY ONE WHICH TOGETHER WITH
SB THREE ONE FOUR WOULD CREATE
A NECESSARY LIFELINE FOR
RESTAURANTS AND BARS. THE
PANDEMIC HAS DEVASTATED SMALL
BUSINESSES PARTICULARLY IN THE
HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY AT AN
ALARMING RATE SINCE THE FIRST
DAY HOME ORDER THIS INDUSTRY
HAS SUSTAINED. A BIG ECONOMIC
HIT AND CONTINUES TO STRUGGLE
TO REGAIN ALL THAT HAS BEEN
LOST. AS WE TRY TO REGAIN A
SENSE OF NORMALCY MANY OF OUR
LOCAL BUSINESSES WILL BE ONE
STEP AWAY FROM BANKRUPTCY AND
EASING ARBITRARY ABC
RESTRICTIONS WILL BE CRITICAL
TO THEIR SUCCESS AFTER THE
PANDEMIC AND BEYOND.
RESTAURANTS AND BARS THROUGHOUT
THE STATE ARE IN DIRE NEED OF
FLEXIBILITY WITHINTHE A. B. C.
ACT AS MANY OF ANTIQUATED LAWS
INCLUDED IN IT MAKE IT MUCH
HARDER TO CONDUCT BUSINESS. SB
THREE ONE FOUR PROVIDES
FLEXIBILITY FOR RESTAURANTS AND
BARS IN FOUR WAYS. FIRST
BUSINESSES THAT HAVE A COVER
NINETEEN TEMPORARY EXPANSION
PERMIT. WILL BE ALLOWED TO
CONTINUE OPERATING FOR AT LEAST
ONE YEAR AFTER THE EMERGENCY
ORDER SELECTED. YOU CAN APPLY
FOR PERMANENT PROMISES
EXPANSION AT THE SAME TIME.
THIS EXPANDED OUTDOOR SEATING
AND SERVICE AREAS HAVE ALLOWED
RESTAURANTS AND BARS TO SURVIVE
AND HAVE BEEN WILDLY POPULAR
WITH THE PUBLIC. IF AFTER ONE
YEAR GRACE PERIOD BUSINESS HAS
SUBMITTED AN APPLICATION FOR
PERMANENT EXPANSION A. B. C.
CAN EXTEND THE GRACE PERIOD IF
THEY SO CHOOSE. SECOND THIS
BILL ALLOWS MANUFACTURERS THE
ABILITY TO SHARE A COMMON
LICENSE AREA WITH MULTIPLE
LICENSE RETAILERS SUCH AS BARS
RESTAURANTS OR OTHER
MANUFACTURERS. THIRD THE BILL
ALLOWS BUSINESSES TO USE A
CATERING LICENSE AT ONE
LOCATION THIRTY SIX TIMES
INCREASING THE ALLOWABLE LIMIT
FROM TWENTY FOUR. LASTLY
CURRENTLY AN EVENT MUST SUBMIT
THEIR PERMIT APPLICATION TO A.
B. C. MORE THAN THIRTY DAYS
BEFORE THE EVENT. THIS BILL
WILL INCREASE THE SPIRIT OF THE
TIME TO NINETY DAYS BEFORE AN
AND INSTEAD OF THE CURRENT
THIRTY DAY WINDOW. THESE
CHANGES WILL HELP US ADAPT AND
MOVE FORWARD FROM THE
CHALLENGES WE FACE DURING THE
PANDEMIC AND ENSURE THAT IN THE
FUTURE THESE REGULATIONS ARE
MORE USER FRIENDLY FOR THESE
BUSINESSES. WITH ME HERE TODAY

THREE EIGHTY NINE THE WORLD
FAMOUS ILLUSTRIOUS MISTER DODD.
THANK YOU MR CHAIRMAN MEMBERS I
WOULD LIKE TO BEGIN BY
ACCEPTING ALL THE AMENDMENTS
LISTED IN AL-SISI'S. I ALSO
WANT TO THANK YOU AND YOUR
COMMITTEE STAFFER YOU WORK ON
THE BILL THIS BILL DOES TWO
THINGS THE FIRST IS TO CODIFY
LAST YEAR'S REGULATORY RELIEF
THAT ALLOWED RESTAURANTS. THE
ABILITY TO SELL BOTH PRE
PACKAGED ALCOHOL DRINKS IT
PREMIXED DRINKS TO CUSTOMERS AS
FAR AS THEIR- TO GO MEALS
ORDER. THE ABILITY TO CALL
ALCOHOLIC DRINKS IS BEEN A LIFE
WHY DO OUR RESTAURANT IN.
INDUSTRY DURING COVERT NINETEEN
THIS BILL SIMPLY EXTENDS THE
AUTHORITY FOR FIVE YEARS IN
GIVES RESTAURANTS THE OPTION TO
BE ABLE TO PROVIDE. FIVE
ALCOHOL DRINKS AS PART OF THEIR
MAIL ORDER. IN ADDITION THE
BILL REQUIRES THIRD PARTY
DELIVERY COMPANIES WHO ARE
DELIVERING ALCOHOL BE HAPPY
I'LL CALL LICENSEE. TO OBTAIN A
PERMIT FOR THE DEPARTMENT ABC.
I WANT TO POINT OUT- TO BE VERY
CLEAR THAT THIS DOES NOT
LEGALIZE OF DELIVERY OF
ALCOHOL. BY THIRD PARTY
DELIVERY COMPANIES. THAT
CLEARLY IS ALREADY TAKING PLACE
IT WILL CONTINUE TO OCCUR
REGARDLESS OF THIS BILL. WHAT
THIS BILL DOES IS PROVIDE TO
COMMONSENSE APPROACH TO GIVE
THE DEPARTMENT OF ABC. THE
NECESSARY OVERSIGHT TO ENSURE
THE DELIVERIES ARE BEING DONE
IN A RESPONSIBLE MANNER THE
PROTECTS AGAINST UNDERAGE
DRINKING IN OVER INTOXICATION.
SPECIFICALLY THIS BILL REQUIRES
DELIVERY DRIVERS WHO ARE
DELIVERING ALCOHOL TO COMPLETED
TRAINING IT AUTHORIZES ABC TO
IMPOSE FINES ON THIRD PARTY
DELIVERY COMPANIES. NOT
DELIVERY DRIVERS I DON'T THINK
SO AND WITH THE AMENDMENTS
TAKEN TODAY. THIS BILL MAKES A
VERY CLEAR THE DEPARTMENT BBC
CAN SUSPEND OR REVOKE A
CONSUMER DELIVERY SERVICE
PERMIT. WHEN THE CIRCUMSTANCES
WARRANT SUCH DISCIPLINE I'LL
CONTINUE TO WORK CLOSELY WITH
THIS COMMITTEE STAKEHOLDERS.
AND THE DEPARTMENT ABC TO
ENSURE THAT THIS BILL IS BOTH
WORKABLE AND ENFORCEABLE WITH
ME. IT JOHN LATIMER ON BEHALF
OF SEVEN ELEVEN IN THE
CALIFORNIA RETAILERS
ASSOCIATION. MISTER SUTTON
MISTER SAID WANT TO GO AHEAD
AND START YOUR TESTIMONY AND-
SUPPORT. GOOD AFTERNOON MR
CHAIRMAN MEMBERS MATT SUTTON OF
THE CALIFORNIA RESTAURANT
ASSOCIATION IN SUPPORT OF THE
LEGISLATION I THINK SENATOR
DODD EXPLAINED IT WELL THIS IS
ACTUALLY ADDING PROTECTIONS TO
EXISTING LAW WELL MAKING A
SLIGHT EXPANSION OF WHAT CAN BE
DELIVERED AND I WOULD JUST
POINT OUT THAT RESTAURANTS. MAY
BE ALLOWED TO REOPEN FULLY
SINCE JUNE FIFTEENTH THAT WE
ARE NOWHERE NEAR FULLY RE OPEN
AND CONSUMER DEMANDS AND
DESIRES HAVE CHANGED AND A BILL
LIKE THIS ALLOWS US TO CONTINUE
TO FULFILL THOSE DESIRES OF
CONSUMERS AND COMMUNITIES IN A
SAFE WAY AND SO WE ARE IN
SUPPORT. THE Q. NEXT WITNESS
THE SLAMMER. MR CHAIRMAN
MEMBERS JOHN LATIMER ON BEHALF
OF THE RETAILERS ASSOCIATION
SEVEN ELEVEN AND I WOULD BUILD
UPON- FOR MR SUTTON SAID
SPEAKING JUST TO THE DELIVERY
PORTION OF THE BILL FOR A
MOMENT. AGAIN I THINK THE
AUTHOR EXPLAINED IT WELL THIS
IS CURRENTLY LEGAL HOWEVER. IT
IS NOT JUST SIMPLY HOW DO WE
KEEP THIS GOING IN A POST
PANDEMIC ENVIRONMENT THE USE OF
DELIVERY SERVICES BY CONSUMERS
HAS BEEN RISING YEAR AFTER YEAR
BECAUSE IT'S AN IMPORTANT
VALUABLE. BENEFIT TO THEM. ONE
OF MY CLIENTS SEVEN ELEVEN
STORES ALONE DID OVER HALF A
MILLION TRANSACTIONS LAST YEAR.
BEGIN PRE COVERED THROUGH
COVERT OVER HALF MILLION
TRANSACTIONS THAN DID INVOLVE
THE SALE OF ALCOHOL.THAT'S
LEGAL AND PERMISSIBLE TODAY
HOWEVER WHEN THERE IS A BREAK
DOWN IN THE DELIVERY WHEN
THERE'S A MISTAKE MADE ANY
MINOR IS GIVEN ACCESS TO THAT
PRODUCT THE ABC HAS NO. MEANS
REGULATORY LEAD TO ATTACH ANY
RESPONSIBILITY TO A DELIVERY
COMPANY INSTEAD THEY COME BACK
TO YOUR RETAILER YOUR
RESTAURANT IN YOUR DISTRICT. WE
WANT TO WORK WITH THE DELIVERY
COMPANIES THEY'RE REALLY
IMPORTANT PARTNERS AGAIN
THEY'RE VALUABLE TO OUR TO OUR
CONSTITUENTS OUR CUSTOMERS IN
YOUR CONSTITUENTS HOWEVER. WE
HAVE TO ESTABLISH A REGULATORY
MODEL FOR THEM WHERE BY THE
DEPARTMENT AN ENFORCE AGAINST
THEM IF IT'S NECESSARY. THAT
DOESN'T HURT THE DELIVERY
COMPANIES IT DOESN'T HURT THE
DRIVERS FRANKLY IT MAKE SURE
THAT THE PENALTY GOES TO THE
DELIVERY COMPANY. SO WE THINK
THIS IS AN IMPORTANT STEP THAT
HELPS KEEP THIS GREAT
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN RETAIL
RESTAURANT AND DELIVERY
COMPANIES GOING. LEADER DRIVE
UP. THANK YOU. SO WE'RE GONNA
GO INTO THE GALLERIA IF ANY
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WOULD
LIKE TO SPEAK IN OPPOSITION. IN
THE GALLERY. SEEING NONE WE'RE
GONNA MOVE ON TO- THE PHONES
THERE IS A ONE WITNESS- LISTED
IN OPPOSITION- SHANE GOODMAN
FROM THE COOPERATIVE TEAMSTERS
AND- MODERATOR WOULD YOU PLEASE
OPEN THE LINE FOR MISTER
GOODMAN. LEVINE IS OPEN. MR
HEARING MEMBERS MAC BRIDE IN
NEWER SHANE GOT TO MEN HERE ON
BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA
TEAMSTERS WE'RE RESPECTFULLY
OPPOSE UNLESS AMENDED SB THREE
EIGHTY NINE WELL WE RECOGNIZE
THE CRITICAL ROLE I'LL CALL THE
GUY WAS PLAYING FIFTEEN
RESTAURANTS DURING THE PANDEMIC
ANY EFFORT TO EXTEND ALCOHOL
DELIVERY MUST DO SO WITH THE
SAFETY OF WORKERS AND CONSUMERS
AND MINE. HAS DRAFTED SB THREE
EIGHTY NINE WOULD CREATE A
CONSUMER DELIVERY SERVICE
PERMITS FOR THIRD PARTY
DELIVERY PLATFORMS NEGATIVELY
THIS CHANGE WILL SHIFT
LIABILITY FROM RESTAURANT THE
VULNERABLE DELIVERY DRIVERS
MANY OF WHOM ARE CLASSIFIED AS
INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS WE
APPRECIATED CENTER DOTTED THE
KNOWLEDGE THEY NEED TO IMPROVE
THE STATUS QUO OR ALCOHOL
DELIVERIES ARE TAKING PLACE
RIGHT NOW WITHOUT ANY OVERSIGHT
THAT'S REFLECTING THE AUTHOR'S
WILLINGNESS TO WORK WITH THE
COMMITTEE ON THE STEP THAT
PENALTY STRUCTURE. WITHOUT MORE
OVERSIGHT FOR THE ABC AS WELL
THAT SAID IT IS UNCLEAR- WHO
THE PENALTY ACTUALLY FALLS ON
OUR READING IS THAT BECAUSE THE
CLASSIFICATION THE DRIVERS AND
INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS THE
PENALTIES COULD BE PUSHED OFF
OF THE LICENSE CONSUMER
DELIVERY SERVICE ARTIST'S WORK
FORCE AS WE KNOW THESE DRIVERS
ACTED HARMONY IN THE DISCRETION
TO DETERMINE WHO RECEIVE
ALCOHOL OR TO REFUSE TO EVERY.
THAT IS WELL REFLECTED IN THE
ABC'S APRIL TWENTY TWENTY
VI THREE IN WHICH THE
DEPARTMENT CONCLUDED THAT
DELIVERY APPS LOG I'M MUCH
WORSE RATED SELLING ALCOHOL TO
MINORS IN FACT IN FOUR OUT OF
FIVE INSTANCES A MINOR COULD BE
EXACTLY ORDER AN ALCOHOLIC
BEVERAGE THROUGH DELIVERY AFTER
IT AFTER A COMPANY THEIR
LICENSE UNDER STATUTE THE NEED
TO SHARE RESPONSIBILITY FOR
PENALTIES RESULTING FROM DRIVER
MISCONDUCT WHICH WOULD SIMPLY
CREATE PARITY WITH BRICK AND
MORTAR LICENSEES WHERE THE
FAILURE RATE AND SELLING TO
MINORS IS SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER-
UNDER EXISTING LAW WHEN HE
DIRECTED PLAYED A LICENSEE
FURNISHES ALCOHOL TO MINORS THE
LIABILITY FALLS THE PERMIT
HOLDER. BE A VICARIOUS
LIABILITY WE SEE NO REASON NOT
TO MERE THAT. EXISTING
STRUCTURE BY ADDING QUITE- FIND
LANGUAGES THE BILL WILL GO LONG
WAY TOWARD THE YOU ACTUALLY
FALL. ALTERNATIVELY COMMAND THE
TRACK TO LIVE OUT CALL COST TO.
THE EMPLOYEES I THE CONSUMER
DELIVERY. YOUR CALIFORNIA
KENNETH DRY ARE TO BE DIRECTING
OF THE- DISPENSARY FOR LARGELY
THE SAME RE. EITHER WAY WE
WOULD INSIST HE BILL CREATES A
MORE ROBUST LICENSING STRUCTURE
SO THAT COMPANIES LICENSES
CONSUMER DELIVERY SERVICES IN
THE STATE ACTUALLY CARRY
LIABILITY. AS THE BILL MOVES
FORWARD TO THE NEXT COMMITTEE
WILL CONTINUE TO WORK WITH
DOCTOR ON POTENTIAL FIXES. I TO

SB SEVEN TWENTY ONE A BILL THAT
WOULD DESIGNATE. AUGUST TWENTY
SIX IS CALIFORNIA FORMER PER
DAY. ONE OF THE CONTRIBUTIONS
FARMWORKERS PROVIDE TO THE
STATE. AS AS MANY OF YOU KNOW
CALIFORNIA IS NUMBER ONE IN OUR
CULTURE AND- THAT- DEPENDS ON
SKILLED LABOR TO. SUSTAIN A
FIFTY BILLION DOLLAR INDUSTRY
THE STATE PRODUCES OVER FOUR
HUNDRED DIFFERENT COMMODITIES
INCLUDING TWO THIRDS OF ALL
FRUITS AND NUTS IN THE UNITED
STATES MORE THAN ONE THIRD OF
ALL THE VEGETABLES IN THE
UNITED STATES CALIFORNIA IS
HOME TO SOME. EIGHT HUNDRED
THOUSAND FARMWORKERS 75% OF
THESE ARE UNDOCUMENTED. SB
SEVEN TWENTY ONE WOULD
ESTABLISH AUGUST TWENTY SIX IS
CALIFORNIA FAR FROM WORKING
DAY. SO THAT WE COULD CELEBRATE.
AND ALSO REFLECT ON ALL THE
THING THE SUFFERERS DUE TO MAKE
CALIFORNIA'S AGRICULTURAL
INDUSTRY NUMBER ONE NATION AN
ATTIC POWERHOUSE IN THE WORLD.

STATEMENTS. SIR PLEASE- NEAR
MAYES PERCY OKAY- OF COURSE I'M
HERE TO TESTIFY IN SUPPORT OF
SB SEVEN TWENTY ONE TO
DESIGNATE AUGUST TWENTY SIX AS
CALIFORNIA FARMWORKER DURING.
IN CALIFORNIA SURGIR COMMITTEE
MEMBERS THE FARMWORKERS EMERGES
ARE ONE EIGHT THE EIGHTEEN
SEVENTY FOUR THE FARMS GROWTH
WHERE DEGREE WHERE LABOR HAD TO
BE HIRED. HIGHER LABOR STARTS
TO CARRY OUT THE CULTIVATION
AND HARVESTING UP THE
AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION IN THE
STATE THE FARMER BECOMES THE
INDISPENSABLE NECESSITY FOR THE
GROWTH OF THE AGRICULTURAL
INDUSTRY OF THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA. THE BEGINNING OF
THE LABOR FORCE INCLUDED
CHINESE AND JAPANESE EVENTUALLY
A LARGE SCALE FARMERS SEEKING.
HIGHER MEXICAN FILIPINO WORKERS.
THE JUSTICES SUFFER GRADUALLY
BECAME KNOWN OUTSIDE THE FARMS.
AND THE FIRST EFFORTS TO
ORGANIZE. ENDING IN BLOODY
CONFRONTATIONS CAME JUST BEFORE
WORLD WAR ONE. THE REVOLUTION
IN MEXICO IN NINETEEN TEN COST
THOUSANDS OF MEXICANS TO FREE
TO THE UNITED STATES. THE
SUPPLIER FARMWORKERS INCREASE
AND IN FACT BY NINETEEN TWENTY
IN CALIFORNIA THE FARMWORKER
LABOR FORCE HAS GROWN TO OVER
TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND. THIS
LABOR FORCE IN LARGE PART
HEALTH THE WORLD WAR ONE EFFORT
BY CONTINUING TO ASSIST IN THE
PRODUCTION OF THE FOOD NEEDED
DURING THIS PERIOD. NOW THE
LAST. IT WAS A LABOR FORCE THAT
WAS XCLUDED FROM THE NATIONAL
LABOR ACT OF NINETEEN THIRTY
FIVE AND CONTINUE TO ALLOW MANY
INEQUITIES THERE WERE NOT
ALLOWED FOR THE REST OF THE
LABOR FORCE IN THE COUNTRY. AND
IS WORLD WAR TWO APPROACH
WHAT'S MORE THE FARMWORKER
COMING FROM MEXICO THROUGH THE
BRACERO PROGRAM SUPPLIED THE
DESPERATELY NEEDED LABOR FORCE
FOR THIS COUNTRY. AFTER THIS
PROGRAM MANDATE THE LABOR FORCE
CONTINUE TO BE MAINTAINED BY
THE INFLUX OF LARGE NUMBERS OF
UNDOCUMENTED FARMWORKERS FROM
MEXICO. THIS SUMMER THE FARM
WORKER WAS A KEY FACTOR TO THE
INITIAL GROWTH OF THE
AGRICULTURAL INDUSTRY OF
CALIFORNIA THE FARM WORKER HELP
MAINTAIN THE PRODUCTION OF FOOD
DURING THE TWO WORLD WARS THE
PHARMACY IS WORKING IN THE
FIELDS PROVIDING FOOD ONE
EXPOSED TO THE TOXIC SMOKE OF
THE WILDFIRES WITHOUT ADEQUATE
PROTECTION A FARM WORKER WAS
PRODUCING FOOD FOR US DURING
THE CORONA VIRUS FOR ENDEMIC
RISKING INFECTION WHILE DOING
THAT. THEY WERE NOT AN
ESSENTIAL WORKFORCE THEY BECAME
A SACRIFICIAL WORK FORCE WHAT
THE CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH THE
FARMWORKER WORKS HAVE BEEN
ADDRESSED THEY HAVE NEVER
FAILED TO PRODUCE THE FOOD
NEEDED IN THE STATE AND FOR THE
NATION THE OVER FIFTY BILLION
DOLLAR AGRICULTURAL INDUSTRY IN
CALIFORNIA IS THE ENVY OF THE
WORLD AND HAS AN ESTIMATED
EIGHT HUNDRED FARMWORKERS DOING
THE WORK AND THEY ARE TRULY ON
RECOGNIZED. BY THE WAY IT IS
ESTIMATED THAT OVER 50% OF
THESE WORKERS ARE UNDOCUMENTED
I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN AYE
