OF CALIFORNIA REPRESENTS THE
LARGEST CBD MARKET IN UNITED

FORTY FIVE LAST YEAR THERE ARE
STILL QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT IS

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH FAQ HAS
FURTHER MUDDIED THE WATERS BY

YOU'D LIKE TO MAKE A COMMENT
PLEASE PRESS ONE AND THEN ZERO
AT THIS POINT. OKAY THERE ARE NO

THANK YOU VERY MUCH BRING IT

OR COMMENTS ON THE BILL. SEEING
NONE ASSEMBLY MEMBER SMITH WOULD
YOU LIKE TO CLOSE. THANK YOU SIR
AS I MENTIONED EARLIER THE CAP
ONLINE UNLICENSED WORK. HAS NOT
BEEN ADJUSTED SINCE NINETEEN
NINETY EIGHT. INFLATION IS
INCREASED BY 74% SINCE THAT TIME
. MEANING THAT THESE HANDY MAN
ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE IN TWENTY
TWENTY TO. ON NINETEEN NINETY
BUYING POWER. IT IS THE INTENT
OF THIS LEGISLATION TO ALLOW FOR
SUCH OVER THE THRESHOLD THAT
THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED
. IF IT IS NOT. THEN NEEDS TO BE
STATED POLICY. IN THE LAST FEW
YEARS THIS BILL HAS BEEN TRIED A
NUMBER OF TIMES IN DIFFERENT
WAYS SOME ASKING TO DOUBLE THE
THRESHOLD OTHER SHOT TO TIE IT
TO THE CPI. REGARDLESS OF THE
METHOD TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE.
THE DIX DISCLOSURE FROM THIS
COMMITTEE AND FROM GROUPS
OPPOSING THIS BILL HAS BEEN THE
SAME. EVERYONE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT
THIS ISSUE EXIST. TECHNOLOGY
THAT IT WILL AFFECT A
SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF PEOPLE.
AND THEN THEY REFUSED TO ACT- TO
SOMEONE Væ INVENTED CONCERNED
THAT ADDRESSES THAT WILL
INCREASE FRAUD. BUT THE- BUT
THAT WE HAVE EVERYBODY IN THIS
ROOM I WOULD LIKE TO ASK FOR
INPUT ON THIS ISSUE. I WOULD BE
HAPPY TO AMEND THIS BILL IN A
WAY THAT BENEFITS ALL PARTIES
INCLUDING INDIVIDUALS WHO
PERFORM THIS TYPE OF WORK.
INDIVIDUALS THAT DON'T HAVE A
VOICE IN SACRAMENTO. SO I ASK
AGAIN. THAT IF WE HAVE A
THRESHOLD FOR UNLICENSED
CONTRACTING WORK HOW CAN WE
ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. AS A RETIRED
CONTRACTOR IT'S NOT THE ELEVATOR
OPERATOR THE REMODEL THE LUMBER
ALONE IS GOING TO COST MORE THAN
FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS THE DRYWALL
ALONE IS GOING TO COST MORE THAN
FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS. THAT IS
NOT THE FRAUD THAT WE'RE AFTER
I'M TRYING TO BE THE VOICE FOR
THE LITTLE MAN. AT THAT TIME A
RETREAT REQUEST AN AYE VOTE.
THANK YOU ASSEMBLY MEMBER SMITH.
WHAT WHILE I UNDERSTAND IN AND
VERY MUCH APPRECIATE. YOUR
INTENT I'M CONCERNED THAT THIS
BILL WOULDPUT HOMEOWNERS AT
GREATER FINANCIAL RISK BY
ALLOWING UNLICENSED INDIVIDUALS.
TO PERFORM CONSTRUCTION WORK AND
OTHER HOME IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS
WHEN LABOR COSTS FIVE HUNDRED
DOLLARS OR LESS. BUT THERE IS NO
LIMIT ON THE COST OF MATERIALS.
THE BILL ALSO RECEIVED LATE
OPPOSITION LAST WEEK WHICH RAISE
A NUMBER OF POLICY CONCERNS THAT
WARRANT ADDITIONAL
CONSIDERATION. CONSEQUENTLY I AM
UNABLE TO SUPPORT THIS BILL
TODAY- MR SECRETARY PLEASE CALL
VOTE. THE MOTION IS TO PASS TO
APPROPRIATIONS BERMAN NO BERMAN
NO FLORA. FLOOR HI BLOOM. BLOOM
NO BONTA. CAN CAN I CUNNINGHAM
FONG. FONG I GIPSON. GIPSON
GRAYSON GRAYSON NOW IRWIN LEAN.
LINO MCCARTY MEDINA SALAS SMITH. SMITH I THINK WARD FOR NOW
WEBER WEBER NOW. OTHER VOTERS
FORTY SEVEN WILL LEAVE IT OPEN
FOR ABSENT MEMBERS- THANK YOU
SUMMER SMITH I LOOK FOR TO
SUPPORTING YOUR BILL ON CONSENT
LATER TODAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH
FOR YOUR TIME. SO WITH THAT I
SEE DOCTOR ARAMBULA. READY TO
ROCK AND ROLL I DON'T NUMBER
ELEVEN AB TWENTY TWO SIXTY FIVE.
REMEMBER. THANK YOU MR CHAIRMAN
MEMBERS READY WHEN YOU ARE THINK
IT ARAMBULA I WOULD FIRST LIKE
TO THANK THE COMMITTEE CHAIR AND
THE COMMITTEE STAFF FOR THE
SUGGESTED AMOUNT IN ORDER TO
CONTINUE THE CONVERSATIONS
FURTHER I AGREED TO THESE
AMENDMENTS AS OUTLINED IN THE
COMMITTEE OF. ANALYSIS AB TWENTY
TWO SIXTY FIVE WILL HELP
CALIFORNIA CONSUMERS SAFEGUARD
OPIOID MEDICATIONS AND REDUCE
THE ACT OF PILFERING. A POWERFUL
ON RAMP TO THE NATION'S OPIOID
ADDICTION CRISIS. THIS BILL
WOULD REQUIRE A PHARMACIST TO
PROVIDE A SCHEDULED OR TWO AND
PRESCRIPTION DRUGS IN A LOCKABLE
CONTAINER. PRESCRIPTIONS SUCH AS
MORPHINE OXYCODONE AND RITALIN.
BILL FOR IN THE ACT OF SNEAKING
A SMALL NUMBER OF PILLS HOPING
THAT IT WILL GO UNDETECTED IS
THE LEADING CAUSE OF OUR YOUTH
OPIOID ABUSE HERE IN AMERICA.
THE OUTDATED CHILD RESISTANCE
PRESCRIPTION VIALS CURRENTLY IN
USE HAVE NOT BEEN MODIFIED IN
OVER FIFTY YEARS. WHEN THE
FEDERAL POISON PREVENTION
PACKAGING ACT WAS ENACTED IN
NINETEEN SEVENTY. THE GOAL BACK
THEN WAS FOR US TO PREVENT
CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF FIVE
FROM GAINING ACCESS TO ASPIRIN.
TODAY THOSE SAME CHILD LOCKS ARE
USED TO PROTECT MEDICATIONS
WHICH ARE RANGING. FROM COUGH
MEDICINES TO PRESCRIPTION PAIN
MANAGEMENT MEDICATIONS THAT ARE
EIGHTY TIMES STRONGER THAN
MORPHINE. REQUIRING LOCKING
PRESCRIPTION VIALS FOR POWERFUL
NARCOTICS IS A LOW COST WAY FOR
CALIFORNIA TO MODERNIZE THE
ANTIQUATED FEDERAL LAWS THAT ARE
PARTIALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR
CAUSING THIS NATIONWIDE EPIDEMIC
. THERE ARE TWO WITNESSES HERE
IN SUPPORT OF AB TWENTY TWO SIX
FIVE IT WILL BE PATTY VARGAS WHO
IS REPRESENTING THE RECOVERY
ADVOCACY PROJECT. AND SHERRY
DALY WITH THE CALIFORNIA
CONSORTIUM OF ADDICTION PROGRAMS
AND PROFESSIONALS. THANK YOU DR
ARAMBULA GOOD AUDIBLE CHAIR
MEMBER SHERRY DALY WITH
CALIFORNIA CONSORTIUM OF
ADDICTION PROGRAMS AND
PROFESSIONALS REPRESENTING OVER
TWENTY THOUSAND ADDICTION
COUNSELORS MORE THAN ONE HUNDRED
TREATMENT PROGRAMS THREE HUNDRED
FIFTY WOULD REST AND THOUSANDS
OF PEOPLE RECOVERY THROUGHOUT
THE STATE I'M HERE TODAY TO
VOICE SUPPORT FOR AB TWENTY TWO
SIXTY FIVE BOTH AS AN EXPERT IN
SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER TREATMENT
FIELD AND PERSONALLY AS A
PARENT. FROM A CLINICAL
STANDPOINT WALKING AN IN VERY
EFFECTIVE PREVENTION MEASURE
CONCERNING YOUNG ADULTS AND
ADOLESCENTS THIS AGE GROUP IS
MATURE ENOUGH TO CALCULATE RISK
REWARD POSSIBILITIES FOR THE
ACTIONS STEALING TWO OR THREE
PILLS FROM A CONTAINER PERIOD OF
TIME IS FAR LESS LIKELY TO BE
DETECTED THAN AN ENTIRE
CONTAINER OF MEDITATE MEDICATION
SUDDENLY GOING MISSING THEREFORE
EXPERIMENTING WITH HER
PHARMACEUTICALS FROM HOME
MEDICINE CABINET HAS VERY LITTLE
CONSEQUENCE FROM A PARENTAL
PUNISHMENT PERSPECTIVE BUT FROM
A LIFE AND DEATH STANDPOINT
CONSEQUENCES FROM THIS BEHAVIOR
CAN LITERALLY BE DEADLY.
INCLUDED IN OUR LETTER OF
SUPPORT WITH A NEWS REPORT ABOUT
A FAMILY IN INDIANA WHO
EXPERIENCED THE TRAGEDY THAT CAN
OCCUR WHEN THESE POWERFUL
MEDICATIONS ARE SHARED CASUALLY
AT PARTIES AND MIXED WITH
ALCOHOL. HE SAVAGE HAD TO. SONS
NICK JACK WHO LOVE TALKY
PACHELBEL AND LATE NIGHT
HANGOUTS WHEN IT CAME HOME FROM
COLLEGE TO CELEBRATE YOUNGER
BROTHER JACK'S HIGH SCHOOL
GRADUATION THE TO.ATTEND A
SMALL PARTY WITH FRIENDS WERE
OPIOIDS AND ALCOHOL WERE SHARED.
IN THE MORNING BECKY WENT TO
PICK UP LAUNDRY IN JACK'S ROOM.
AS WE ALL DO WHEN THEY COME HOME
FROM COLLEGE. SHE FOUND HIM
UNRESPONSIVE. UNBELIEVABLY WHILE
SHE WAS ADMINISTERING CPR
PARAMEDICS ARRIVED BUT WENT
TOWARD THE BASEMENT WHERE
ANOTHER CALL FOR ASSISTANCE HAD
BEEN RECEIVED. THAT NIGHT BECKY
LOST TWO OF HER FOUR SONS TO
OPIOID OVERDOSE OVERDOSE. FOR
PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE I'VE
EXPERIENCED PILFERING AND MY OWN
HOME. ALTHOUGH I WAS SPARED THE
HORRIFIC TRAGEDY MISS SAVAGE
SYLLABUS WITH TODAY. AS AN
ADVOCATE A FIELD OF ADDICTION
TREATMENT FOR THREE DECADES I
BELIEVE MY CHILDREN HAD SOMEHOW
BECOME IMMUNE TO SUBSTANCE USE
DISORDER. AFTER ALL I DID ALL
THE RIGHT THINGS I HAD THE TALKS
I GAVE ALL THE PERTINENT
INFORMATION AND I EXCLUDED THEM
FROM ENVIRONMENTS WHERE I
SUSPECTED DRUG AND ALCOHOL.
WOULD BE A- THEY WERE STRAIGHT
EAST MUSICIAN DANCERS. NONE OF
MY- WERE VERY AFFECTED BY THE
DISS. OF A THAT. WHEN MY COLLEGE
AGE HOW RETURNED UNIVERSITY IN
EUROPE. WITH A SIGNIFICANT
SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER DIAGNOSIS
WAS SADDENED AND CONFUSED HOW
THE STARTED. WHO HAD INFLUENCE
MY CHILD. WHY WOULDN'T CHILD
EVER START USING DRUGS ASKED. IT
WAS NOT UNTIL EIGHTY MONTHS
INTRO MY CHILD BECAUSE- THAT I
ASKED SOME OF THOSE QUESTIONS.
ONE MIGHT TRIAL TOLD ME THAT HER
USE BEGAN IN MY HOME. BILL
LEFTOVER NORCO FROM A SURGERY I
WAS SHOCKED IN IN THIS. MY HEART
SANK I THOUGHT IF I ONLY KNEW.
HOW MUCH PAYMENTS UP COULD I
HAVE SAVED MY CHILD LIFE. AND MY
OWN FAMILIES. HOW MUCH TIME DO
WE LOSE AND HOW MUCH MONEY WAS
LOST PAYING FOR MONTHS OF
RESIDENTIAL TREATMENT. ALL
BECAUSE WE DID NOT HAVE AN EARLY
WARNING SYSTEM. IN OUR HOME.
IT'S TOO LATE FOR BECKY AND- OF
PARENTS WHO. DON'T KNOW WHAT
THEY DON'T KNOW. WE CAN CHANGE
THAT WITH AB TWENTY TWO SIXTY
FIVE I RESPECTFULLY URGE DRIVE
UP. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THE
MORNING CHAIR AND MEMBERS. I AM
PATTY VARGAS I'M A STATE
ORGANIZER WITH THE RECOVERY.
PROJECT AND ALSO APPEAR PARENT
COACH WITH THE PARTNERSHIP IN
DETECTION. I'M ALSO A MOTHER HER SON TO OPIOID
ADDICTION. AND I HAVE A DAUGHTER
IN RECOVERY NOW. TO BE HONEST I
SELDOM WORRIED ABOUT MY KIDS
PILFERING FROM MY MEDICINE
CABINET MAINLY BECAUSE THERE
WASN'T ANYTHING THERE. BACK THEN
I HAD AN AVERSION TO NARCOTICS
AND I NEVER TOOK ANYTHING
STRONGER THAN ASPIRIN OR
IBUPROFEN. SO IF MY KIDS WANTED
TO EXPERIMENT THEY'RE GONNA HAVE
TO GO ELSEWHERE AND THEY DID.
WHEN MY SON WAS ABOUT SEVENTEEN
I LEARNED THAT HE AND SEVERAL OF
HIS FRIENDS HAD BEEN STEALING
PILLS FROM THEIR PARENTS A
LITTLE HERE. A LITTLE THERE
TRADING AND SELLING BACK AND
FORTH. JOEL'S CONTRIBUTION WAS
HIS OWN ATTAR ALL I HAD NO IDEA
IT WAS A HOT TICKET ON THE
ILLICIT MARKET. I DID
CONVERSATIONS WITH ALL OF MY
KIDS FROM THE AGE OF TEN AND UP
ABOUT THE DANGERS OF ALCOHOL AND
MARIJUANA I WAS A KID FROM THE
SIXTIES. I NEVER EVEN CONSIDERED
TALKING ABOUT PRESCRIPTION
MEDICATIONS WHY DID THEY USE
THESE DRUGS. BECAUSE IT WAS SO
EASY TO GET PLAIN AND SIMPLE.
GREG EXPERIMENTATION DOESN'T
START WITH A NEEDLE IN THE VEIN
IT STARTS WITH DRUGS THAT ARE IS
EASY TO GET AS OPENING YOUR
MOM'S MEDICINE CABINET. RESEARCH
HAS SHOWN THAT UP 280% OF HEROIN
ADDICTS BEGAN BY USING
PRESCRIPTION. OPIOIDS WHAT IF
THERE WAS A SAFEGUARD IN PLACE
THAT MADE IT HARDER FOR THEM TO
ACCESS WHAT IF THAT YOUNG PERSON
HAD TO DO A REALLY QUICK RISK
REWARD ASSESSMENT. SNEAKING A
PILLAR TO HEAR IN THERE VERSUS
TAKING THE WHOLE BOTTLE. LOCKING
PILL VIALS ARE AN EFFECTIVE
MEANS OF PREVENTING. OPIOID
ADDICTION MAKING THAT SNAP
DECISION A WHOLE LOT EASIER. TWO
OF MY KIDS EVENTUALLY GRADUATED
OTHER DRUGS INCLUDING HEROIN IN
MATH AND WE LOST JOEL IN TWENTY
SEVENTEEN. HE WAS A POET HE WAS
A MUSICIAN HE WAS FUNNY AND HE-
HE WAS LOCKED OUT. HE WAS ALSO
BROKEN BY AN UNFORGIVING SYSTEM
AND THE DISEASE HE JUST COULDN'T
BEAT. I WISH I HADN'T BEEN SO
COMPLACENT ASSUMING THAT MY IN
LIGHT AND CONVERSATIONS ABOUT
ALCOHOL AND MARIJUANA ACCURATELY
REPRESENTED WHAT WAS REALLY
GOING ON IN THEIR SCHOOL. IF I
HAD I COULD HAVE POSSIBLY SAVE
THE MANY YEARS THAT THEY LOST TO
ADDICTION ULTIMATELY COSTING MY
SON HIS LIFE. IT COULD HAVE
SAVED OUR FAMILY HUNDREDS OF
THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN
TREATMENT LEGAL FEES AND OTHER
RESIDUAL COST NOT TO MENTION THE
TRAUMA OF CHILD LOST AN
OPPORTUNITY TONIGHT. AB TWENTY
TWO SIXTY FIVE WILL ENSURE THAT
SCHEDULE TWO DRUGS ARE
ACCESSIBLE ONLY BY THOSE WHO
NEED THEM AND I RESPECTFULLY
URGE YOUR AYE VOTE. THANK YOU MS
VARIOUS IMAGE DALY- WE'RE GONNA
MOVE TO A PRIMARY WITNESSES IN
OPPOSITION. I BELIEVE WE HAVE-
MISSOULA HORN. THE CALVET
RETAILERS ASSOCIATION. NEAR ME
HEY GOOD MORNING MISTER CHAIR
AND COMMITTEE MEMBERS THIS IS
WHEN THE GOAL HORN AND I
REPRESENT THE CALIFORNIA
RETAILERS ASSOCIATION AND THE
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF CHAIN
DRUG STORES AND WE ARE
RESPECTFULLY OPPOSED AB TWENTY
TWO SIXTY FIVE M. FIRST IS WHEN
I RECOGNIZE THE AUTHORS
COMMITMENT TO THIS ISSUE M. WE
SHARE THAT COMMITMENT TO COMBAT
PRESCRIPTION DRUG ABUSE AND
THEFT- UNFORTUNATELY WE DON'T
THINK AB TWENTY TWO SIXTY FIVE
IS THE APPROPRIATE SOLUTION AS
DRAFTED- FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS
WE HAVE THREE PRIMARY CONCERNS
THAT I'D LIKE TO HIGHLIGHT
TODAY. FIRST AND WHAT MOST
NOTABLY AB TWENTY TWO SIXTY FIVE
FIVE RAISES SOME SERIOUS SAFETY
QUESTIONS WITH RESPECT TO
PATIENTS BEING ABLE TO ACCESS
THEIR MEDICATIONS SOME PATIENTS
MIGHT HAVE DIFFICULTY OPENING A
LOCKABLE VIAL FOR A NUMBER OF
REASONS- OR THEY MIGHT FORGET
THEIR PASSCODE AND BE UNABLE TO
RETRIEVE IT WHEN THEY NEED IT
LEAVING THEM WITHOUT ACCESS TO
THE MEDICATION. SECOND THIS BILL
WILL PUT SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC
PRESSURE ON PHARMACIES- M.
ALTHOUGH IT DOES REQUIRE
MANUFACTURERS TO REIMBURSE
PHARMACIES FOR THE COSTS OF THE
LOCK WILL BILES PHARMACIES WILL
STILL HAVE TO FRONT LOAD THE
COSTS AND FOLLOW UP WITH
MANUFACTURERS TO RAISE RECEIVE
PAYMENT. PHARMACIES ACTUALLY
INTERACT WITH MANUFACTURERS
DIRECTLY TYPICALLY GO THROUGH
WHOLESALERS SO TO IMPLEMENT THIS
PROCESS WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO SET
UP AN ENTIRE NEW ACCOUNTING
SYSTEM JUST TO RECEIVE
REIMBURSEMENT FOR THE LOCKABLE
VIALS M. IMPLEMENTING THE SYSTEM
AND CONSTANTLY FOLLOWING UP WITH
MANUFACTURERS WILL PLACE A NEW
FINANCIAL BURDEN ON PHARMACIES
AND DISTRACT FROM PATIENT CARE
AND I THINK AS WE HONOR
PHARMACIES ARE INCREDIBLY BUSY
PLACES- M. DISPENSING
MEDICATIONS AM DOING HIS ASIANS
AND TESTING THIS IS ONE MORE
THING THAT WILL- PUT A KINK IN
THE WORK FLOW. MY THIRD AND
FINAL POINT PATIENTS ACTUALLY
ALREADY HAVE ACCESS TO LOCKABLE
VIALS I AM IN TWENTY EIGHTEEN
THE LEGISLATURE ENACTED AB
TWENTY EIGHT FIFTY NINE WHICH
REQUIRES CHAIN PHARMACIES TO
PROMINENTLY DISPLAY AND OFFERED
TO PATIENTS LOCKABLE STORAGE
PRODUCTS INCLUDING LOCKABLE
PRESCRIPTION VIALS M. THE
PATIENTS IF THEY WANT TO USE
THEM THEY THEY ARE ABLE TO DO
IT. THE SLIDE HAS ONLY BEEN IN
EFFECT FOR A BELIEVE THREE YEARS
SO WE THINK IT IS PREMATURE TO
IMPLEMENT A MANDATE WITHOUT
FIRST SEEING IF THE SLOT IS
WORKING AND. SEEING IF IT HAS
BEEN EFFECTIVE IN ACTUALLY CAN
ADDING PRESCRIPTION DRUG- TELL
FRANK. FOR AN ABUSE. M.
DEFINITELY APPRECIATE THE
AMENDMENTS RECOMMENDED THE
COMMITTEE AND- WHICH- THEIR-
THAT PHARMACIES MAINTAIN PATIENT
PASSCODES. BUT UNFORTUNATELY
THESE DO NOT REMOVE THE BURDEN
ON PHARMACIES. AM I THINK WE
COULD GET TO A PLACE THAT WE
COULD REMOVE OUR OPPOSITION. IF
THE LOCKABLE VIALS ARE MADE
VOLUNTARY AND IF THESE-
BURDENSOME ADMINISTRATIVE AND
FINANCIAL REQUIREMENTS ON
PHARMACIES. M. ARE REMOVED I
JUST WANT TO REITERATE WE
ABSOLUTELY SHARE. AND A
COMMITMENT TO FINDING EFFECTIVE
PROVEN WAYS TO COMBAT THE OPIOID
EPIDEMIC. AND WE DEFINITELY WORK
WITH THAT THE AUTHOR IN THE
LEGISLATURE TO DO THIS BUT- AT
THIS TIME WE ARE OPPOSED AB
TWENTY TWO SIXTY FIVE. THANK YOU
. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. WANT TO
OPEN UP TO ANY ADDITIONAL
WITNESSES- IN SUPPORT OR
OPPOSITION IN THE HEARING ROOM

HOW THIS MIGHT BE IMPLEMENTED

I'LL TRY TO PERFECT THE BILL SO
THANK YOU FOR THAT I'LL BE
SUPPORT TODAY. THANK YOU
ASSEMBLY MEMBER. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH. GOT A MOTION. GOTTA SAY.
NEWS OAKLAND DR WEBER. GOOD
MORNING THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR-
FOR BRINGING THIS BILL FOR IT IS
DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT- WE
NEED TO ADDRESS AND WE NEED TO
FIX SOMEONE I THINK ALL OF THE
WITNESSES AS WELL FOR SHARING
YOUR STORIES WITH US. I YOU KNOW
I DEFINITELY WILL BE SUPPORTING
AND I DO HAVE A COUPLE OF JUST
CLARIFYING. SO THE OVERALL COST
- IS IT THE COUPLE DIFFERENT
DOLLARS IN DIFFERENT AREAS IS
THE TOTAL FOR FIFTY FOUR DOLLARS
AND FIFTY CENTS. IS IT TWO
DOLLARS FOR THE VIAL AND THEN
TWO DOLLARS AND FIFTY CENTS BACK
TO THE PHARMACIST. NO IT'S
CHARACTER A TWO TO. PER LOCKABLE
FILE- THE ANTICIPATION AND HAPPY
TO ADDRESS THE- OPPOSITION. BUT
AS WE KNOW PHARMACIES ARE BUSY
PLACES BUT WE'VE HEARD
ANECDOTALLY IT TAKES ABOUT FIVE
SECONDS. FOR THE PHARMACIST TO
BE ABLE TO PROGRAM IN. THE
LOCKABLE PILL VIAL AND SO. WHILE
WE'RE ON THERE ARE OTHERS WHO
WOULD LIKE TO ATTRIBUTE THAT
COST I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR
US TO FOCUS ON. THE MECHANISM
THE LOCKABLE PILL VIAL ITSELF.
OKAY SO WHEN IT SAYS- I WENT RAN
. RECEIVING THE PHARMACY
CLAMORING FOR THE COST OF THE
LOCKABLE FILE NOT TO EXCEED TWO
DOLLARS PROFILE AND FOR THE
PHARMACY DISPENSING COSTS AND
SERVICES RENDERED NOT TO EXCEED
TO FIFTY. I DON'T THINK IT
CHANGES THE DISPENSING SERVICES
I BELIEVE THE PHARMACIST HAS THE
SAME RESPONSIBILITIES IT'S FIVE
SECONDS ADDED TO THEM PROGRAM
AND LOCKABLE PULLED BY I DON'T
THINK IT'S- ANY DIFFERENT FROM
THEM- ADMINISTERING
PRESCRIPTIONS TODAY. OKAY SAID
THAT WOULD NOT AT TWO FIFTY IS
THAT I THINK THAT'S WHAT IT'S
CURRENTLY IT'S KNOTS TO EXCEED
THAT OKAY- IS THERE ANY. THE WAY
THAT YOU CAN SEE- AT SOME. THE
INCREASE COSTS BEING PASSED TO
THE PATIENT. I THINK IT'S
IMPORTANT FOR US TO FOCUS ON THE
FACT THAT MANUFACTURERS HAVE
BEEN PROFITING OFF OF THIS
OPIOID CRISIS FOR QUITE A WHILE
HERE. AND FOR US TO MAKE SURE
THAT WERE DIRECTING THE COST TO
THE MANUFACTURERS IS THE INTENT
OF THE BILL- HI I BELIEVE WHEN
WE LOOK AT THE PROFIT MARGINS OF
MANY OF THESE LARGE COMPANIES AS
WELL WITHIN THEIR- PROFITS TO BE
ABLE TO ABSORB SOME OF THE COST
OF ADMINISTERING THIS THE NEW
AND IMPROVED WAY. I THINK SINCE
IT'S BEEN FIFTY YEARS SINCE
WE'VE DONE CHILD RESISTANT FOX I
THINK IT'S LONG PAST TIME. FOR
US TO LOOK AT THE MEDIUM IN
INSURANCE THE MOST PROTECTIVE
THAT WE CAN TO HELP TO ENSURE
THAT WHAT OCCURRED HERE IS NOT
GOING TO OCCUR AGAIN. NO I AGREE
I WOULD JUST SAY THAT AS IT
MOVES FOR YOU'RE PROBABLY
LOOKING TO SEE IF THERE'S A WAY
IN WHICH WE CAN ENSURE THAT THE
MANUFACTURERS WILL NOT BE ABLE
TO PASS THESE COSTS DOWN TO
PATIENTS BECAUSE PRESCRIPTION
DRUGS. ARE ALREADY EXTREMELY
HIGH FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE AND WE
WOULDN'T WANT THOSE THAT NEED IT
TO HAVE THIS AS A BARRIER- I
WOULD ALSO JUST- YOU KNOW
ENCOURAGE YOU TO. CONTINUE TO
WORK WITH SOME OF THE
OPPOSITION- ONE OF THE THINGS
THAT I DID HAVE DOWN IS THE UP.
FRONT COST BURDEN TO MANY OF THE
PHARMACIES- IT MAY NOT BE THAT
BIG OF A DEAL FOR SOME OF THE
LARGER CHAINS LIKE CVS TO
WALGREENS BUT WE ALWAYS HAVE
LIKE THE SMALLER. YOU KNOW MOM
AND POP PHARMACISTS IN OUR
COMMUNITIES AND- WE WOULDN'T
WANT THIS TO BE TOO MUCH OF A
FINANCIAL BURDEN ON THEM WHERE
THEY'RE UP FRONTING THE MONEY
AND THEN HAVING TO WAIT. THIS
TIME TO GET REIMBURSED BUT THANK
YOU VERY MUCH FOR- DOING THIS
AND I'M LOOKING FOR TO
SUPPORTING IT. THANK YOU AND I
WILL JUST ADD IF I CAN THAT
CURRENTLY WITH CHILD RESISTANCE
LAW- BILES THE PHARMACIES HAVE
TO FRONT LOAD THAT COST AND
INVENTORY THEM AS WELL AND THEY-
ARE NOT ABLE TO BE REIMBURSED OR
REBATE FOR THEM. THAT THIS
ACTUALLY MAY BE ABLE TO ASSESS
SOME OF OUR PHARMACY SINCE WE'RE
CREATING A WAY IN WHICH- THE-
THAT REBAY. ON AND- WILLING TO
WORK THE OFFICE. BUT JUST WANTED
TO HIGHLIGHT AND BRING THAT UP.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH ANY OTHER
QUESTIONS FROM THE COMMITTEE
MEMBERS. CNN DOCTOR I WOULD LIKE
TO CLOSE I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR
AN AYE VOTE WE HEARD HERE TODAY
HOW IT WAS SO EASY FOR SO MANY
OF OUR CHILDREN TO BE ABLE TO
HAVE ACCESS TO THE OPIOID
MEDICATIONS AND THAT LOCKABLE
PILL VIALS ARE AN EFFECTIVE

THIS OPIOID EPIDEMIC WITH OUR
CHILDREN I WOULD JUST HIGHLIGHT

WARNING MORNING. THE JURY
MEMBERS I'M HERE TO DAY 2%
ASSEMBLY BILL TWENTY SEVEN
TWENTY THREE BILL THAT SEEKS TO
UPDATE OUR OUT OF DATE AND
DEEPLY INSUFFICIENT THAT
MICROCHIPPING AND PAT THE FLAWS
. AMBER'S I'M SURE MANY OF YOU
ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE HIGH
PROFILE INSTANCES OF THAT STUFF.
INCLUDING SOME PET OWNERS BEING
ROBBED AT GUNPOINT. NO DOUBT
THERE HAVE BEEN CONSTITUENTS IN
OUR OWN COMMUNITIES WHO HAVE
SUFFERED FROM THE DRAMATIC LOSS
OF A PET. BOB A LOSS OF A PET BY
BAD ACTORS LIKE THIEVES. HOWEVER
IN MANY US CONSTITUENCIES ONE
INDIVIDUAL WITH CONSTITUENT A
CURATIVE LENI WAS JOINING US AS
A WITNESS TODAY SUFFERED THE
THEFT OF HER PET DOG AT THE
HANDS OF THE VERY RESCUE GROUP
WHICH SOLD HER THE DOG. AND
DESPITE THE OBVIOUS OWNERSHIP HE
RETAIN NO EXPLICIT LEGAL RIGHTS
TO HER DOG BECAUSE THE MICROCHIP
WAS REGISTERED WITH THE RESCUE
GROUP. AS THE PRIMARY CONTACT.
IT IS VITAL THAT WE PROTECT OUR
PETS AND CONSUMERS BY ENACTING
AB TWENTY SEVEN TWENTY THREE.
THIS BILL UPDATES PET ADOPTION
AND MICROCHIPS STANDARDS BY
REQUIRING THAT ALL SHELTERS AND
RESCUE GROUPS PROVIDE TO ADOPT.
A TO BRIDE TO ADOPTERS THE
PROPER RESOURCES ACCESS POINTS
AND ASSISTANCE WERE UPDATING THE
PRIMARY CONTACT REGISTERED. TO
THE MICROCHIP IN PLACE IN THE
PAST. WITH THE BILL THAT'S TO BE
ADOPTED. THIS IS CRITICAL TO
ENSURING THAT EVERY NEWLY
ADOPTED COULD BE MICROCHIPPED
WITH INFORMATION REFLECTIVE OF
THEIR TRUE OWNER RATHER THAN THE
INFORMATION. OF THE SHELTER OR
RESCUE GROUP WHICH MERELY HELD
THEM UNTIL THEY FOUND THEIR HOME
. ADDITIONALLY THE BILL WILL
HEIGHTEN STANDARDS OF DUE
DILIGENCE FOR PET ADOPTION. ALL
SHELTERS AND RESCUE GROUPS WILL
BE REQUIRED TO MEET THE
STANDARDS OF ALREADY DILIGENT
AND GOOD ACTING ORGANIZATIONS BY
RELEASING PETS TO OWNERS. WITH
THE MOST MEANINGFUL PROOF OF
OWNERSHIP AS OPPOSED TO SIMPLY
MICROCHIP REGISTRATION UNTIL
OWNERS ONLY SO LONG AS THEY HAVE
NO DOCUMENTED HISTORY OF PET
MISTREATMENT. THIS IN EFFECT
WILL PREVENT BAD ACTORS FROM
RECLAIMING PATHS TO THE
DETRIMENT OF WAR AND LOSS OF THE
PETS TRUE OWNER. AND IT WILL
PREVENT PET ABUSERS FROM
ACCESSING ACCESSING LOW LOST
PETS WHOSE FAMILIES ARE STILL
SEARCHING FOR. LASTLY AB TWENTY
SEVEN TWENTY THREE WILL
INCLUSIVELY CLARIFY THE
DEFINITION OF AT THE- END GIVE
OWNERS GREATER REDRESS TO
REUNITE WITH THEIR PET. AND
INSTANCES OF TRADITIONAL CUT
THAT OFF AND IMPROPER
RECLAMATION. BY SHELTERS AND
RESCUE GROUPS. MY OFFICE SAYS
CONVENE MULTIPLE STAKEHOLDER
GROUPS ON THIS BILL AND I WANT
TO UNDERSCORE THAT I'M COMMITTED
TO ADDRESSING AND ELIMINATING
ANY POTENTIAL NEGATIVE IMPACTS
ON LOCAL SHELTERS. AND RESCUE
GROUPS AS THIS BILL MOVES

STATE ORGANIZATION IS OPPOSED TO
THIS LEGISLATION UNLESS AMENDED
TO ADDRESS CONCERNS THAT WOULD
HAVE A CATASTROPHIC IMPACT ON
THEIR OWNERS IN CALIFORNIA'S
SHELTERS. WHAT WE DO AGREE THAT
SHELTERS AND RESCUES SHOULD NOT
BE LISTED AS THE OWNER ON
MICROCHIPS ONCE CUT FOR A-
YOU'RE SHOWING OPPOSE TO
LIMITING DETERMINE OF OWNERSHIP
THE NAME LISTED ON THE MARKET.
MICROCHIP FOR SIMPLY ONE OF MANY

LIMITING. TO THE MICROCHIP ONLY
WITHIN THE CAPABILITY OF ID TAG
LICENSES AND YEARS OF VETERINARY

BILL AT THIS TIME RESPECTFULLY
REQUEST YOUR NOSE UP THANK YOU.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH OF A WE HAVE
ONE A THIS IN A WIN IS AN
OPPOSITE MS. YEAH GOOD MORNING
SHERRY MAY IS JOY TOP AND I AM
THE DIRECTOR OF GOVERNMENT
RELATIONS PERCENT HUMANE SOCIETY
. I'D LIKE TO START BY. THE
AUTHOR IN HIS FOR TACKLE THIS
COMP IS. THERE IS A WAY THING WE
HOLD AGREE UPON THAT IS IT IS
NOT AND- WITH BEST PRACTICES TO
ALLOW FOR RESCUE GROUPS OR
SHELTERS. TO REMAIN THE PRIMARY
CONTACT ON A MICROCHIP ONCE
UNLAWFUL ADOPTION IS TAKING
PLACE. THAT IS REALLY THE HEART
OF THIS ISSUE AND WHAT ALLOW THE
RESCUE GROUP INVOLVED IN
MISCELLANEOUS CASE TO STILL HER
DOG AND PRESENT TO THE COURT
THEMSELVES AND THE RIGHTFUL
OWNER. WHERE WE DIVERGE IS THE
PROVISION THAT ALLOWS- ANIMALS
ONLY TO BE RECLAIMED IF THEY
HAVE UP TO DATE MICROCHIPS. WELL
A USEFUL TOOL MICROCHIPPING IS
AN IMPERFECT TECHNOLOGY. UNTIL
FAIRLY RECENTLY SAN DIEGO HUMANE
ERRONEOUSLY ASSUMES THAT BECAUSE
WE PROVIDED INFORMATION TO NEW
PET OWNERS ON HOW TO REGISTER
THEMSELVES ON THE CHIP THAT IT
WAS HAPPENING. IT WAS ONLY WHEN
IMPLEMENTING THE PROVISIONS OF
THE MANDATORY MICROCHIP BILL
THAT PASSED TWO YEARS AGO THAT
WE REALIZE MANY DOCTORS NEVER
FOLLOWED THROUGH. WELL WE NOW
HAVE AN AUTOMATED PUSH FROM ARE
SHELTERING SOFTWARE MICROCHIP
COMPANY WE CONTRACT WHEN. THERE
COULD BE THOUSANDS OF LAWFUL
ADOPTIONS INVALIDATED BY THIS
LEGISLATION BECAUSE THE CHIPS
WERE NEVER UPDATED ARE
REGISTERED. FURTHER THERE ARE
DOZENS OF MICROCHIP aPANIES
AND THEY DO NOT ALWAYS SHARE
INFORMATION AMONG THEMSELVES OR
USE A SINGLE PLATFORM TO OF THE
ORDER INFORMATION WHEN WHICH
EMIT TRANSFERS OF OWNERSHIP TAKE
PLACE. SHELTERS NAVIGATE THESE
CHALLENGES BY UTILIZING MORE
THAN ONE SOURCE OF OWNERSHIP
DOCUMENTATION. THERE ARE
HUNDREDS OF SHELTERS THROUGHOUT
THE STATE WERE EFFECTIVELY
NAVIGATING THE PROCESS OF
RETURNING PETS TO THEIR RIGHTFUL
OWNERS AND ARE EXERCISING THEIR
DUE DILIGENCE IN DOING SO. SAN
DIEGO HUMANE SOCIETY'S RECLAIM
RATE FOR DOGS FOUR TIMES GREATER
THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE AND
EIGHT TIMES GREATER FOR CAPS.
IT'S OUR ABILITY TO USE THAT-
MANY TOOLS OF OWNER
IDENTIFICATION SUCH AS COLLARS
WITH TAGS VACCINATION HISTORY
VETERINARY RECORDS AND OTHER
DOCUMENTATION TO PROVE OWNERSHIP
THAT ALLOWS SAN DIEGO HUMANE.
SOCIETY TO BE SO SUCCESSFUL WITH
A PROGRAMS. WE HAVE OFFERED
AMENDMENTS THE OTHER OFFICE THAT
FILL OUT A- AND CAN. WALKING TO
ALLOW SOME DOING IN THE REAR.
EFFORTS TO USE THEIR EXPERT AND
JUDGE. IN THE BASS AND OF LOS
PETS IN THE- WE OUR HIS. OPEN TO
ENGAGE AND WE WILL FORWARD TO.
CHANGES THAT WILL REMOVE OUR
OPPOSITION UNTIL THEN
UNFORTUNATELY WE RESPECTFULLY
REQUEST FILLS OUT. THANK YOU
VERY MUCH. ANY ADDITIONAL
WITNESSES IN SUPPORT OR
OPPOSITION TO THE BILL IF YOU
WANT TO ADD ON IS A ME TOO IN
THE HEARING ROOM RIGHT NOW.
SEEING NONE. LET'S GO TO THE
PHONE LINES FOR ANY. GONNA ADD
ON ME TO WITNESSES IN SUPPORT OR
OPPOSITION. THANK YOU MISTER
CHAIR IF YOU'D LIKE TO MAKE A
COMMENT PLEASE PRESS ONE ZERO AT
THIS TIME. AND THERE ARE NO
COMMENTS TO DISPLAY MISTER
CHAIR. THANK YOU VERY MUCH WANT
TO BRING IT BACK TO COLLEAGUES
FOR ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS.
GEN THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR FOR
THE OPPORTUNITY AND SOME HOME
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BRING THIS
LEGISLATION OVER TO- THE YEAR-
COMMITTEE. ON I THINK THIS IS A
FOR LEGISLATION AS IT'S GOING TO
PREVENT SOME NEFARIOUS ISSUES
HAPPEN IN TERMS OF SHELTERS
PREMATURE RULING- BUT IN GOAL OF
THE ANIMAL CAT OR DOG OR EVEN IN
SOME CASES SELLING- THE- CAT OR
DOG. SO MY QUESTION IS MOSTLY IN
TECHNICAL IN TERMS OF ITS
IMPLEMENTATION- IN THE EVENT.
THAT A CAT OR DOG OR ANIMALS
BROUGHT TO THE SHELTER AND IT
DOES HAVE A CHIP. BUT WHAT IS
THE TIME FRAME. OF HOW LONG THE
SHELTERS WILL BE HOLDING ON. TO
THE CATID ALREADY ANIMAL. BEFORE
IN THE EVENT THAT- THE ORIGINAL
OWNER CANNOT BE FOUND. AND THAT
IT CAN BE ADOPTED BY A NEW OWNER
. BRIGITTE THAT.
THIS BILL DOES NOT CHANGE THE
CURRENT STATUTORY TIME FRAMES-
TIME WE DON'T HAVE THE SPECIFIC
AMOUNT OF TIME RIGHT TO SHARE
WITH YOU AT THIS MOMENT BUT IT'S
ALREADY SET IN STATUTE AND THIS
BILL DOES NOT ALTER THE- I THINK
I'VE ALSO HEARD SOME MISLEADING
INFORMATION JUST ONE CLARIFIED
THAT DIED. IN THE EVENT THAT-
ANIMALS FOUND WITH A MICROCHIP.
THAT THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE AN
CHANGE IN TERMS OF. IF THE
ORIGINAL OWNERS NOT FOUND THAT
THIS WOULD EXPEDITE THE ANIMAL
FROM- IN EUTHANIZED OR OR LET GO
IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM JUST
WANTED TO CLARIFY THAT I'M I'M
VERY CONFIDENT THAT ISNOT THE
INTENT OF THE BILL. YOU'RE
YOU'RE RIGHT IT IS NOT INTENT OF
THE BILL- AND I MIGHT JUST ALSO
SAY IT'S NOT THE INTENT OF THE
BILL. TO DO AWAY WITH ANY
CURRENT PRACTICES THAT. RIGHT
ORGANIZATIONS AGENCIES HUMANE
SOCIETIES ARE USING AND- SEEING
GOOD RESULTS BY. WE'RE SORT OF
WALKING INTO AN AREA WHERE
CLEARLY THERE IS A DEFICIENCY.
WE'RE TRYING TO TIGHTEN THAT
PIECE- AND SO WHERE. THE CURRENT
OPPOSITION AS INDICATED THEIR
CONCERNS WE CONTINUE TO WORK
WITH THEM AND WILL COME UP WITH
THE LANGUAGE TO MAKE SURE THAT.
THAT THIS BILL IS TRYING TO DO A
GOOD THING NOT ELIMINATE WHAT
ARE ALREADY SUCCESSFUL
TECHNIQUES THAT ARE BEING USED.
TO REUNITE FAMILIES WITH THEIR
LOSS. THANK YOU MR HOLDEN I
REALLY APPRECIATE THIS BILL AND-
I KNOW THAT TO YOUR REPUTATION
SECOND TO NONE AND- YOU CONTINUE
TO WORK WITH THE OPPOSITION I
LOOK FORWARD TO A SUPPORT YOUR
BILL AT THIS TIME. BECAUSE THANK
YOU VERY MUCH THE SHORT. THANK
AT ONE APPRECIATE THAT YOU'RE
BRINGING THIS BILL FORWARD I
UNDERSTAND THE INTENT IS GOING
TO BE POSITIVE AND I NEED TO
SHARE SOME OF THE CONCERNS OF
THE SAN DIEGO HUMANE SOCIETY I
KNOW THAT YOU'VE BEEN WORKING
WITH MULTIPLE CHAPTERS OF THE
MEANS OF THE MID SIZE ACROSS THE
STATE- AND THAT WILL CONTINUE TO
WORK THEM AS WELL SO TODAY I'LL
BE SUPPORTING THIS BILL- BUT TO
ANY EXTENT THAT WE CAN WORK ON
OPTIONS FOR- DEMONSTRATING
OWNERSHIP. AND ALSO WITH SPECIAL
ATTENTION TO ON HOUSE
INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE BONDED
WITH THEIR PETS I THINK WOULD BE
HELPFUL AS THIS APPROACH IS THE
FLOOR THANK YOU APPRECIATE. YOU
MISTER WARD BONTA AT THANK YOU
FOR BRINGING THIS FORWARD AYE
AYE MY DOG LEGO LOS ALSO THINKS
YOU FOR BRINGING THIS FORWARD. I
WE IN OUR DISTRICT ACTUALLY HAVE
IN MY CITY IN PARTICULAR RELY
SIGNIFICANTLY ON AT NONPROFIT
RESCUE SHELTER TO BE ABLE TO
MOVE THIS FORWARD AND I
APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENTS THAT
ENSURE THAT THERE WON'T BE ANY
ADDITIONAL BURDEN PLACED ON ON
SHELTERS TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT
AND IT'S ALREADY A PART OF OUR
INFRASTRUCTURE- THAT WE CONTINUE
TO UNDER INVEST IN- AS A SOCIETY
AND TO AND HOPING THAT YOU WILL
CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THEIR-
OPPOSITION TO ENSURE THAT THERE
ISN'T ANY ADDITIONAL BURDEN THAT
WE DO HAVE THE ABILITY TO HAVE.
ALL OPPORTUNITIES TO IDENTIFY
OWNERSHIP- TO ENSURE RAINY
REUNIFICATION WHEN THEY NEED NOT
ONLY IN THE CHIP AND KNOW THAT
WE WILL GET THERE I WITH THIS
AND FOR THAT REASON THOSE
REASONS I WILL BE VOTING YES ON
THIS. NAME IS BONTA ANY
ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS
OR MOTIONS OR SECONDS. GOT A
MOTION GOT A SECOND- HOLDEN
WOULD YOU LIKE TO CLOSE- YES
RESEARCHER AND COMMITTEE I FIRST
OF ALL I JUST APPRECIATE- THE
IMPORTANCE OF. THE OPPOSITION'S
CONCERNS AND WE WILL ADDRESS
THEM I WILL TELL YOU THAT THE
SORT OF HIT HOME VERY QUICKLY
YESTERDAY AS I WAS AT THE
AIRPORT IN BURBANK COMING UP
HERE. THE START THIS WEEK AND I
GOT A PANIC CALL FROM MY WIFE
AND SHE SAYS THAT THE BACK GATE
WAS OPEN AND- OUR DOG KOBE WAS
GONE. AND SHE WAS VERY VERY
UPSET. AND THEN OF COURSE I'M-
THEN OKAY WILL DRIVE AROUND THE
NEIGHBORHOOD THE FIRST THING
THAT CAME INTO OUR MIND WAS DO
WE GET A CHIP. AND WE DID BURKE
THERE WE REGISTER THE CHIP YOU
KNOW SO THERE'S ALL THESE THINGS
THAT START RUNNING THROUGH YOUR
MIND AFTER THE FACT- IT IS TO
SAY- HE WAS ON THE NEIGHBOR'S
PORCH. A CHASING AFTER SOMETHING

SECOND ALREADY. QUESTIONS OR
COMMENTS AND COLLEAGUES. SEEING
NONE. I APOLOGIZE HOW DO EVER
SKINNING TWO QUICK NOW IT'S FINE
IT'S FINE- I WANT TO THANK YOU
VERY MUCH FOR INTRODUCING THIS
VERY VERY IMPORTANT BELL- YOU
KNOW I THINK OVER TIME WE HAVE.
I'M HAS WE'VE EXPANDED SCOPE OF
PRACTICE- WE RECOGNIZE THAT-
PEOPLE OUTSIDE OF THE
TRADITIONAL YOU KNOW PHYSICIAN-
ODD YOU KNOW HEALTH CARE SETTING
HAVE A SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN-
HEALTH OUTCOMES FOR OUR
COMMUNITIES AND OUR PATIENTS I
THINK- EQUALITY CALIFORNIA
ACTUALLY SAID IT VERY WELL- WHEN
THEY SAID. THAT THIS BILL
ACKNOWLEDGES THE ROLE THAT
PHARMACISTS PLAY IN CLOSING
HEALTH GAPS FOR MARGINALIZED
COMMUNITIES IN CALIFORNIA. I'M I
WAS A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED- TO
SEE THAT WHEN WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT CULTURAL COMPETENCY- WE
ARE ONLY DOING IT FOR AN HOUR.
AND BECAUSE THERE'S SO MUCH THAT
YOU'RE REFERRING TO WITH
CULTURAL WITHIN CULTURAL
COMPETENCY AND ALSO THAT WE
DIDN'T TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO
SEPARATE OR TO ALSO INCLUDE
SPECIFICS ON- THE DISPARITIES
THAT YOU SEE WITHIN THE AFRICAN
AMERICAN LATINO AND NATIVE
AMERICAN AND I KNOW THAT'S A
PART IT SAYS. IT'LL BE A PART OF
IT BUT YOU CAN'T FIT ALL OF THAT
WITHIN AN HOUR- RECOGNIZING THAT
JUST WITH THE PREP IN THE PATH-
YOU KNOW HELPING COMPLIANCE WITH
THAT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT DIABETES
HYPERTENSION AND PEOPLE ARE
COMING IN FROM THEIR MEDICATIONS
WE'VE EXPANDED THE SCOPE FOR
VACCINES AND- WE EVEN HEARD YOU
KNOW PHARMACISTS NOW WHEN IT
PRESCRIBE BIRTH CONTROL PILLS
THAT- THAT INTERACTION. ALSO IS
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT WHEN WE TALK
ABOUT CULTURAL COMPETENCY YES WE
NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE
CULTURALLY COMPETENT WHEN
DEALING WITH LGBTQ PLUS
COMMUNITY BUT THERE'S ALSO
ANOTHER COMMUNITY THAT
MARGINALIZE AND THAT'S OUR ARE
BLACK AND LATINO AND NATIVE
AMERICAN AND SOUTH IT WOULD HAVE
BEEN NICE IF WE HAD OR IF YOU
HAD- MAYBE BROKEN THAT OUT MAYBE
HAD TWO HOURS OF REQUIREMENT- IN
THEIR IN THEIR LICENSURE- OR
MAYBE THAT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT
WE NEED TO ADDRESS BECAUSE THAT.
ASPECT IS IMPORTANT AS WELL. THE
OTHER QUESTION THAT I HAD- IS TO
HAVE YOU GOTTEN ANY PUSH BACK
FROM THE STATE BOARD OF PHARMACY
ON THE REQUIREMENT OF THE
SUBMISSION OF PROOF- VERSUS THE
RANDOM AUDIT THAT THEY USUALLY
DO. THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTIONS
DR WEBER- I'LL SAY TO ANSWER
YOUR FIRST QUESTION OR TO REALLY
ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR FIRST COMMENT-
YOU KNOW THIS IS INTENDED TO BE
EMBEDDED WITHIN THE EXISTING
PRIVACY REQUIREMENTS- AND I
REALLY APPRECIATE THAT WE CAN
FOCUS IN ON. AREAS THAT ARE
IMPORTANT TO THE LGBTQ COMMUNITY
AREAS IN WHICH- MANY IN OUR
COMMUNITY RECOGNIZE THAT WE ARE
AS DIVERSE AS THE GENERAL
POPULATION. AND WE INTEND TO BE
AS INCLUSIVE AS POSSIBLE AND
ADDRESSING THOSE HEALTH
DISPARITIES PARTICULARLY IS THE
ADDRESS OF THE BLACK AND BROWN
COMMUNITY AND ESPECIALLY AS THE
ADDRESS WOMEN'S AND TRANS
RELATED ISSUES AS WELL. WITH
REGARD TO THE SECOND QUESTION-
WE HAVE NOT HEARD FROM THAT
ORGANIZATION YET BUT I WILL
DEFER TO OUR PRIMARY WITNESS
FROM THE PHARMACISTS ASSOCIATION. DR VAN ALLEN IF YOU WANT TO
ADD ANYTHING TO THAT. NO PRESS.
OREGON QUESTION- IF I CAN JUST
CLARIFY I THINK THAT'S THE POINT
REGARDING OUR- OF PRINTING
EDUCATION WILL BE KEY I THANK
CURRENTLY HELPING A TRACK IN THE
PHARMACY CURRICULUM AS
PHARMACISTS. NOT TREATING AND-
ACCUMULATING AND THE SECOND PART
IS. FOR THE BOARD THE PHARMACY
HAVE YET TO IT HEARD ANY- PUSHED. BACK SO FAR. OKAY THANK YOU
BECAUSE I KNOW IT'S THEY THEY
HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT
THEY'RE GIVING LICENSORS. AND
THAT'S WHY THEY USUALLY DO LIKE
YOU KNOW MEDICAL BOARD AND ALL
OF THESE LARGE FORCE JUST TO
KIND OF RANDOM AUDITS TO MAKE
SURE THAT THEIR LICENSEES. ARE
ACTUALLY DOING THEIR
REQUIREMENTS SO THE FACT THAT
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO ACTUALLY
WAIT TO ACTUALLY GET PROOF OF
EACH PERSON MIGHT BE SOMEWHAT
BURDENSOME FOR THEM AND THEY MAY
BE CONTACTING YOU AT SOME POINT.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU DR
WEBER. SOMBERLY GUESTS ARE PROUD
TO BE JOIN AUTHOR ON THIS WITH
YOU AS A MEMBER WARD AND I THINK
IT'S- COURSE REALLY IMPORTANT
THAT WE ARE EDUCATING OUR
PHARMACISTS ABOUT THE UNIQUE
CHALLENGES THAT OUR COMMUNITY
BEACON K. FACES ESPECIALLY WHEN
IT COMES TO THE AIDS EPIDEMIC IN
THAT STILL. LASSEN FOR SOME OF
THE COMMUNITY BUT ALSO JUST A
REMINDER YOU KNOW BY BY
DEFINITION THE LGBTQ COMMUNITY'S
INTERSECTIONAL WE COME FROM ALL
RACES AND BACKGROUNDS IS REALLY
GREAT THAT WE GET THIS IN AND
HOPEFULLY THERE WILL BE MORE
GROUNDWORK LAID FOR MORE
CULTURAL COMPETENCY. AND I WITH
THAT A MOVE THE BILL. ALREADY

SUPPORT. ANY ADDITIONAL
