THOUSAND TEACHER VACANCIES
ACROSS CALIFORNIA DURING THAT
TWENTY TWENTY ONE TWENTY TWENTY
TWO SCHOOL YEAR. AND OUR
SUPERINTENDENT THURMAN HAS MADE
MAKING SURE WE HAVE ADEQUATE
TEACHERS AND INCREASE OUR
PIPELINE A PRIORITY AND I'M
PROUD THAT HE IS SPONSORING THIS
BILL AND BROUGHT IT TO OUR

WHAT WE CAN- WITH THIS PRUDENT
MEASURE. THERE'S NOT ENOUGH
INDIVIDUALS AND ENTERING THE

SOLVE THIS ISSUE BY LIFTING
MCALISTER'S COMPENSATION CAP ON

COMMENTS TO THE CONCERNS AROUND
CAL STIRS RESILIENCY IN THE
RESILIENCY OF THE OF THE FUND
ITSELF. SCALPS U. S. B. HAS BEEN
A CONSISTENT LEADER AND MATURING
THAT THERE ARE NO SIGNIFICANT
HITS TO THE FUND WANT TO MAKE
SURE THAT IT'S ALWAYS. SUPPORTED
THERE'S ALSO ADDITIONAL DOLLARS
IN THE STATE BUDGET TO HELP
SUPPORT. LOCAL DISTRICTS COVER
THEIR LOOK OBLIGATION COSTS
CONTINUE TO RISE WITHIN
CHARACTERS SO THIS IS NOT AN
ISSUE THAT WE TAKE LIGHTLY- BUT
ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COIN.
WE'RE ACTUALLY FACING A REAL
CRISIS WE HAVE CLASSROOMS THAT
DO NOT HAVE TEACHERS WE HAVE
SCHOOLS THAT DON'T HAVE
PRINCIPLES. AND SO THIS IS ONE
OF THE FEW TOOLS THE LEGISLATURE
CAN PROVIDE THAT PROVIDES AN
IMMEDIATE OPPORTUNITY FOR
DISTRICTS TO BRING. TEACHERS
BACK INTO THE CLASSROOM WE THANK
THE LEGISLATURE THE
SUPERINTENDENT TO MISTER
PORTANTINO OTHERS FOR THEIR
LEADERSHIP IN PROVIDING
ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT INTO
TEACHER RECRUITMENT RETENTION
DOLLARS. FIVE BILLION DOLLARS
OVER IN TWENTY ONE TWENTY TWO
LOW RATE WILL. ROLLED OUT OVER A
PERIOD OF FIVE YEARS HUGE
INVESTMENT YET WE THAT MONEY IS
NOW JUST STARTING TO GO OUT. SO
WE ARE NOT SEEING THE FRUITS OF
THAT LABOR YET. THIS IS A
TEMPORARY IF YOU WILL SOLUTION
THAT CAN HELP AT LEAST BRIDGE A
SMALL PIECE OF THAT GAP. SO THAT
OUR STUDENTS CAN HAVE THE HIGH
QUALITY TEACHER THAT THEY
DESERVE SO. WITH THAT WE SHOULD
GET THE OPPORTUNITY. THANKS VERY

. ANY OTHER TWEENER IS IN THE
AUDIENCE. OKAY WITNESSES IN
OPPOSITION PLEASE COME FOR. GOOD
AFTERNOON MISTER CHAIR AND-
MEMBERS FROM HERE ON BEHALF OF
THE CALIFORNIA TEACHERS
ASSOCIATION RESPECTFULLY IN
OPPOSITION TO SENATE BILL SEVEN
SIX FIVE OF PRIMARILY REGARDING
THE PROVISIONS ABOUT BRINGING
BACK A RETIRE REASON I WANT TO
THANK- THE CHAIR AND THINK
COMMITTEE STUFF AS WELL AS THANK
THE AUTHOR AND THE SPONSORS FOR.
TAKING AN AMENDMENT THAT WAS
REALLY IMPORTANT TO OUR
ORGANIZATION AND LIMITING THE
ABILITY OF RETIREES TO COME BACK
TO- HIGH PAID MANAGEMENT-
POSITION SO WE APPRECIATE THAT I
THINK IT MAKES THE BILL MUCH
BETTER THREE THINGS I WANT TO
LIFT UP. WE CAN RIGHT NOW BRING
BACK RETIREES WITHOUT THIS BILL
. IF THOSE RETIREES WANT TO
CONTINUE TO RECEIVE A MONTHLY
RETIREMENT CHECK THEN WE HAVE A
HUNDRED A DAY WAITING PERIOD AND
WE HAVE- AND EARNINGS CAPEN AND
YOUR EARNINGS CUP. AND OUR FOLKS
HONESTLY LIKE THE ANNUAL
EARNINGS CAP BECAUSE IT PROVIDES
SOME PROTECTION IT'S A GOOD
SAFEGUARD- BUT JUST TO BE FRANK
A RETIREE CAN COME BACK WHILE
RECEIVING. THIS RETIREMENT CHECK
EVERY MONTH AND SUBSTITUTE EVERY
DAY FOR AN ENTIRE SCHOOL YEAR
WITHOUT HITTING THAT CAP-
THIRDLY THERE THERE'S EVEN A WAY
FOR AN EMPLOYER TO GET AROUND A
HUNDRED NINETY DAY WAITING
PERIOD RIGHT NOW- AND IT'S NOT
REALLY THAT COMPLICATED IT'S
BASICALLY A SCHOOL BOARD
RESOLUTION NOW OUR FOLKS DON'T
LIKE THE HUNDRED EIGHTY DAY
WAITING PERIOD. ARE THEY LIKE IT
TO GO AWAY BUT THIS PROPOSAL
WOULD ALLOW RETIREES TO COME
BACK TO A FULL TIME TEACHING
POSITION WHILE THEY ARE
RECEIVING A MONTHLY. RETIREMENT
CHECK AND WHAT WE DON'T WANT TO
DO IS PROVIDE FUEL FOR PENSION
CRITICS. WHAT WE DON'T WANT TO
DO IS- ENCOURAGE A POLICY. SHIFT
TOWARD BRINGING BACK RETIRED
WORKERS RATHER THAN FIND WAYS TO
ATTRACT FRESH TALENT. AND WE
DON'T WANT TO CREATE
OPPORTUNITIES FOR ABUSE IN THIS
LAW WHICH IS WHY WE'VE MADE
SEVERAL ADDITIONAL. REQUESTS FOR
OTHER SAFEGUARDS AND GUARD RAILS
TO BE PLACED INTO THE BILL HAPPY
TO DISCUSS IN DETAIL WHAT SOME
OF THE ANTICIPATED PROBLEMS WE
THINK WE'LL SEE AND WHAT I
PROPOSE SOLUTIONS ARE. IF THOSE
QUESTIONS ARISE BUT AS PROPOSED
TO BE AMENDED CTA. OPPOSES THE
BILL AND URGES YOU KNOW BOTH. I
THANK YOU ANY OTHER WITNESSES IN
OPPOSITION TO THE BILL. SEEING
NO ONE COMING FORWARD. LET'S SET
A TAKE A QUICK- VOTE TWO STOPS
QUORUM. MADAM SECRETARY PLEASE
CALL THE ROLL. RESURGENT HERE
MESSAGES HERE DALLI. DALLI HERE
ONE CARDIO. ON CARILLO HERE
HOOVER. WHO OVER HERE LEE. LEE
HERE MCCARTY. QUIRK-SILVA WORKS
OVER HERE. OKAY WE HAVE A CORE.
PUBLIC COMMENTS IN OPPOSITION
TO. SB SEVEN SIX FIVE. SEEING NO
ONE COMING FORWARD. LET ME BRING
IT BACK TO THE COMMITTEE ANY
QUESTIONS FROM THE COMMITTEE.
MISTER CUTTING HORSE LIKE TO
MAKE A MOTION TO MOVE THE BILL
BUT I ALSO WANT TO THANK THE
AUTHOR AND THE- WITNESSES IN
SUPPORT. OF I BELIEVE THAT THIS
IS A MEASURE THAT WILL ADDRESS
WHAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE A LACK
OF- FEATURES. I DO APPRECIATE
THE COMMENTS FROM CTA I THINK OF
ALL THE COMMENTS HOWEVER. US A
PARENT WITH TWO KIDS IN THIRD
GRADE GOING TO FOURTH GRADE. I
L. OFF TO HEAR MY COULD STILL BE
THAT THEY ALSO TWO DUDES IN THE
CLASSROOM. THEY DO A GREAT JOB
HOWEVER WE NEED TO ALSO ADDRESS
THE LACK OF NEW TEACHERS COMING
IN- I'VE SEEN ALSO MY DISTRICTS
WHERE NEW FEATURES COMING INTO
THE PROFESSION. SOME OF THEM
LEAVE WITHIN TWO YEARS I THINK
THAT WE NEED TO FIND A WAY TO
ATTRACT THOSE NEEDING THAT NEW
TALENT COMING AND- BY RETAINING
THEM IS THE CHARLIE CHARLIE BUT
WE HAVE THE FACE. SO FOR THOSE
REASONS THE CITY AGAIN I
UNDERSTAND THE CONCERNS- BUT
GIVEN THE SITUATION THAT WE'RE
IN- THAT'S A GOOD MEASURE TO
KEEP TEACHERS IN OUR SCHOOLS
TEACHING ARCHITECTS. OFFERED A
RECENT. THANK THERE'S A MOTION
IS- OUR SECOND. SECOND BY OF I
SHOULD. STRUGGLE OVER. I THINK
M. IN. YOU KNOW SAN I WAS A JUST
CARRY BECAUSE I DO I THAT YOU'RE
TRYING TO GET OUT HERE- BUT
WOULD LOVE TO KIND OF HEAR YOUR-
TO SOME OF THE CAN. RAISED I
THINK BY THE OPPOSITION. I DO
YOU KNOW- OBVIOUSLY THE MORE NEW
TEACHERS WE CAN RECRUIT THAT'S
ALSO YOU KNOW NEEDS TO BE A
PRIORITY AS WELL- I WE OBVIOUSLY
HAVE TO DO SOMETHING TO ADDRESS
OUR TEACHER SHORTAGE BUT I WAS
KIND OF CURIOUS. WHAT TO SIMILAR
THOUGHTS WERE IN RESPONSE TO
THE- OR OR OR THE SUPERINTENDENT
EITHER EITHER ONE YEAH I MEAN I
MAKE A QUICK COMMENT I MEAN. AN
EXPERIENCED TEACHER WHO WANTS TO
COME BACK AND TEACH I THINK IT'S
AN ASSET. TO THE SCHOOL
COMMUNITY. AND SO WE HAVE AN
OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE IT EASIER
FOR EXPERIENCED TEACHERS TO COME
BACK TO THE CLASSROOM. I THINK
WE IT'S INCUMBENT UPON US IN
PARTICULAR GIVEN THE CRISIS IN
THE SHORTAGE OF TEACHERS AND SO.
YOU KNOW WITH ANY PROFESSION THE
LONGER YOU DO IT THE BETTER YOU
GET AT IT. AND SO HERE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO GET EXPERIENCED
TEACHERS BACK IN THE CLASSROOM.
I THINK WE SHOULD TAKE IT AND
THAT'S WHY I WAS PLEASED WITH
THE SUPER CARE BROUGHT CONCEPT
TO ME AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE HERE
. TO THE CHAIR I THANK YOU FOR
YOUR QUESTION ASSEMBLY MEMBER-
WHY WOULD WE PUNISH A TEACHER
WHO WANTS TO COME BACK AND HELP
OUT SHORT TERM. IN THE SOLUTION.
IF WE ESTABLISH A PENALTY ON
THEIR PENSION AND THEIR ABILITY
TO EARN SOME MONEY WHY THEY ARE
HELPING. RICHEST PUNISHING THEM.
THERE IS A PRECEDENT. FOR HOW WE
CAN DO THIS WITH CARTWHEELS IT
HAS BEEN DONE BEFORE- THROUGH
EXECUTIVE ORDER. BUT WE'RE
BRINGING IT TO THE LEGISLATURE
BECAUSE WE BELIEVE THAT THOSE
ACTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN. BY THE
LEGISLATURE CAN THERE ARE
GUARDRAILS TO PROTECT AGAINST
ANY KIND OF ABUSE. THAT MIGHT
TAKE PLACE AND- WITH ALL DUE
RESPECT I APPRECIATE- YOU KNOW
OUR TEACHERS- IN THE IN CCA'S
POSITION. BUT WE CAN'T WAIT ANY
LONGER. IF YOU'VE HEARD FROM A
SINGLE PRINCIPAL. OR TEACHER WHO
IS IN A CLASSROOM WHO'S FEELING
THE FATIGUE. YOU KNOW NOT TAKEN
THIS ACTION MIGHT ACTUALLY.
CONTRIBUTE TO MORE PEOPLE
LEAVING THE PROFESSION. BECAUSE
OF THE IMBALANCE OF WHAT THEY
TEACHERS HAVE TO TAKE ON. YOU
KNOW CLASSES GET DOUBLED UP. YOU
KNOW- TEACHERS HAVE SUBS WHO ARE
NOT. DIRECTLY ENGAGED IN WHAT
WE'RE DOING IN OUR SCHOOLS AND-
AND SO THIS IS A MEASURE THAT
IS- THOUGHTFUL HAS GUARDRAILS-
AND WITH ALL DUE RESPECT TO MY
COLLEAGUE FROM CTA. ALL THOSE
PROVISIONS ABOUT BEING ABLE TO
DO THIS WITHOUT. ACTION ALL
THOSE THINGS SO COMPLICATED TAKE
A LOT OF TIME. IN OUR SCHOOLS
CAN'T WAIT- IT WE CAN DO THIS
THERE'S A PRECEDENT FOR IT- WE
ARE RECRUITING EVERY AGENCY THAT
DOES RECRUITMENT IS OUT THERE
RECRUITING. BUT THE NATION IS
EXPERIENCING A SHORTAGE AND THIS
BILL BY THE WAY IT WOULD
INCREASE THE RESIDENCIES TYPE IN
THE FORTY THOUSAND DOLLARS- THAT
IS NOW IN THE BUDGET THAT IS
BEING VOTED ON. SO RECRUITMENT
EFFORTS ARE TAKING PLACE BUT WE
NEED A SHORT TERM MEASURE TO
SUPPORT THOSE WHO ARE IN OUR
CLASSROOMS TO SUPPORT OUR
TEACHERS AND OUR STUDENTS AGAIN
I RESPECTFULLY URGE YOUR AYE
VOTE. SB SEVEN SIX FIVE. THANK
YOU. MS COOPER- AFTERNOON I TO
SUPPORT THIS BILL AS SOMEONE
WHO'S BEEN. INVOLVED IN
EDUCATION FOR MY ENTIRE
PROFESSION BEFORE I CAME HERE
AND MY HUSBAND WHO CURRENTLY
TEACHES IN JUNIOR HIGH- ONE OF
THE THINGS. THAT WERE SEEN OUR
MANY MANY SUBS ON CAMPUSES. AND
WHAT'S HAPPENING IS WHEN THEY
CAN'T GET SUBSTITUTES THEN
PEOPLE WORKING IN OTHER
POSITIONS AT THE SCHOOL SIGN ARE
THEN ASKED TO SUB SO MY HUSBAND
AND NOW SINCE. I WAS IN A
POSITION OF A COACHING MENTORING
AND MANY TIMES HE WOULD BE ASKED
TO SUB BECAUSE SOMEBODY ELSE
DIDN'T SHOW UP IN THE POSITION
HE HAD WOULD BE CHANGED. BUT
SECONDLY DURING THE PANDEMIC I'M
AGING MYSELF HERE BUT I JUST
TURNED SIXTY MANY OF MY- CLOSEST
FRIENDS WHO TAUGHT FOR THIRTY
YEARS. REALLY MADE THE DECISION
TO RETIRE EARLY- THEY RETIRED.
EVEN BEFORE THE AGE OF SIXTY-
BECAUSE OF ALL OF THE- SCENARIO
THAT INVOLVED WITH THE PER. THE
PANDEMIC WAS NOT ONLY TEACHING
ONLINE BUT TEACHING STUDENTS IN
THE CLASS- PHYSICALLY IN THE
CLASS AND TEACH YOU KNOW ONLINE
AT THE SAME TIME I DOUBT SOME OF
YOU GUYS TO TRY THAT IT'S A IT'S
A- VERY UNUSUAL TRICKS TO TEACH.
KIDS IN THE CLASSROOM AND ONLINE
AT THE SAME TIME ESPECIALLY WHEN
THEY'RE REALLY LITTLE BUT THE
POINT IS THAT I HAD MANY MANY
FELLOW TEACHERS THAT I KNOW WHO
RETIRED EARLY AND CERTAINLY
COMING BACK SHORT TERM WOULD BE
I THINK NOT ONLY GOOD FOR THE
STAFF BUT THEY BRING A LOT OF
WISDOM. TWO EIGHT TEAM- AND SOME
OF THEM LEFT EARLY BECAUSE OF
THOSE SCENARIOS BUT WOULD BE
HAPPY TO COME BACK ON SHORT TERM
RIGHT AS WE INCREASE OUR-
WORKFORCE AND I AGREE WE NEED TO
LOOK AT THAT AS SERIOUSLY AS WE
LOOK AT BRINGING THESE TEACHERS
BACK. BUT I THINK THIS IS A
GREAT SHORT. TERM TERM SOLUTION
I SUPPORT IT. ALL RIGHT MR LEE.
I JUST WANNA- THANK SAN FOR HIS
BILL IT I. THE PREMISE AND I
APPRECIATE THE PROMISE OF TRYING
TO GET MORE CLASSROOMS YOU KNOW
STOCKS THAT'S REAL BIG RIDGES IN
CRISIS WE HAVE RIGHT NOW. I DO.
THINK THERE ARE SOME VALID
CONCERNS BEING BROUGHT UP OF
COURSE RIGHT NOW AND FOR A WHILE
TODAY NOT TO BE ABLE SUPPORTED I
DO HOPE THAT YOU'LL BE ABLE TO
WORK OUT SOME LANGUAGE
AMENDMENTS AS OPPOSED TO THE
OTHER. COMMITTEES AND AVAILABLE
SUPPORT ON THE FLOOR. ANY
FURTHER THIS IS YOUR DOLLY.
THANK YOU I'M I WILL BE
SUPPORTING- THIS BILL TODAY
THANK YOU FOR BRINGING IT
FORWARD I THINK IT'S ALSO- HELPS
CLARIFY FOR SCHOOL WORK. MEMBERS
AS THEY'RE TRYING TO HIRE THIS
IS AVAILABLE THERE ARE YES THERE
ARE WAYS TO GET AROUND IT AS YOU
MENTIONED I THINK THIS IS ALL
OFFERS CLARIFICATION FOR THEM AS
ARE TRYING TO FILL THESE EMPTY
POSITIONS. I THANK I THINK IT
WILL ALSO BRING- EXPERIENCED
TEACHERS BACK TO THE CAMPUSES AS
WE HAVE NEW TEACHERS COMING
THROUGH THE CREDENTIALING
PROCESS AND HOPEFULLY THEY'LL
HAVE MENTORS ON THEIR CAMPUSES.
TO BE ABLE TO REACH AS ARE GOING
THROUGH THAT PROCESS AND HELP
THEM GET. YOU KNOW QUICKER
THROUGH. AND JUST MORE SUPPORT I
KNOW MY ROLE SCHOOLS. IF YOU
HAVE A TEACHER CURRENTLY ON A
WAIVER EMERGENCY WAIVER GOING
THROUGH THE PARTICULARLY
PROCESS. THEY MIGHT NOT HAVE AN
EXTRA TEACHER ON THAT CAMPUS.
WHOSE VETERAN WHO COULD COME
ALONGSIDE THEM AND HELP THEM. SO
I THINK THIS IS JUST ANOTHER
TOOL IN THE TOOLBOX AND I JUST
APPRECIATE IT THANK YOU. THE
RATE. SEEN NO OTHER. REQUEST TO
SPEAK FROM THE COMMITTEE. OF A
FIRST FOR CENTER PORTANTINO

BRINGING THIS BILL FORWARD THAT-

ARM I DO WANT TO- YOU KNOW
RESPECT- CTA'S- CONCERNS- YOU
KNOW. NORMALLY I WOULD BE A
SUPPORT OF- THERE THE REQUEST

. QUIRK-SILVA HI QUIRK-SILVA I.
FIVE HOURS OF THE BILLS. THANK
YOU SUPERINTENDENT OF COURSE US
WE HAVE A- NEXT FILE ITEM
FOURTEEN. SB FIVE NINE SIX.
THANK YOU- A- CHAIR AND MEMBERS
ARE PRESENTING SB FIVE NINE SIX
WHICH WOULD EXPAND THE CURRENT
TEACHER PROTECTIONS FRANKLY. I
WISH I WASN'T PRESENTING- SB
FIVE NINE SIX I WISH WE DIDN'T
HAVE A SITUATION. WHERE TEACHERS
WERE BEING THREATENS HARASSED
INTIMIDATED FRANKLY FOR
FOLLOWING STATE LAW AND TEACHING
IN INCLUSIVE CURRICULUM- KIND OF
MAKES ME SAD- YOU KNOW I. WELL I
CAN MANY OF US WE GREW UP IN A
TIME WHERE. WE TREATED EACH
OTHER WITH RESPECT AND
COMPASSION AND DIGNITY AND GRACE
AND EVEN WHEN WE DISAGREED.
DISAGREEMENT RICE FOR THE LEVEL
OF THREATS AND WHERE PEOPLE FELT
THAT THEIR LIVES AND THEIR
FAMILIES WERE WERE AT STAKE AND
SO- WITH THIS BILL SEEKS TO DO
IS VERY SIMPLE. IF YOU'RE
PERFORMING YOUR DUTY UNDER THE
LAW. WHEN YOU'RE IN YOUR PRIVATE
TIME. YOU CAN'T BE THREATENED
HARASSED. AND INTIMIDATED SIMPLY
FOR FOLLOWING STATE LAW- AND WE
HAVE A SITUATION WHERE EDUCATORS
IN OUR STATE. OR FOLLOWING STATE
LAW HAVE BEEN HARASSED AND
INTIMIDATED AND THREATENED- AND
THAT'S ALL IT DOES IT DOES NOT
INFRINGE UPON ANYBODY'S RIGHT.
TO GO TO A SCHOOL BOARD MEETING
AN ADVOCATE FOR THEIR CHILDREN
IT DOESN'T INFRINGE UPON
ANYBODY'S RIGHT TO GO TO A PTA
MEETING AN ADVOCATE FOR THEIR
CHILD. DOESN'T INFRINGE UPON
ANYBODY'S RIGHT TO GO TO AN IEP
MEETING AN ADVOCATE FOR THEIR
CHILD IT TAKES ABSOLUTELY NO
CONSTITUTIONALLY PROTECTED
RIGHTS AWAY. IT SIMPLY SAYS THAT
WHEN THAT TEACHER IS ON THEIR
OWN TIME IN THE COFFEE SHOP.
DON'T THREATEN THEIR LIFE. I
DON'T HARASSMENT AND FRANKLY
MOST PEOPLE AREN'T GOING TO
HARASS ANYBODY ARE GOING TO
THREATEN AND IF YOU'RE NOT GONNA
DO IT THIS BILL POSES NO THREAT
TO YOU. BUT IF YOU WANT A
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT. YOU THINK IT
IS YOUR FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT. TO
THREATEN AND HARASS AND
INTIMIDATE SOMEBODY. ONLY
STAYING LONG. THEN THIS BILL
AFFECTS YOU. BUT MOST PEOPLE
DON'T FEEL THAT WAY MOST PEOPLE
WANT. THE PLUMBER TO BE ABLE TO
. HI CARE HOUSE ACCORDING TO
STATE LAW AND NOT BE HARASSED
WHEN THEY WERE IN THE START.
MOST PEOPLE WHAT THE NURSE. WHO
FOLLOW STATE LAW. TO BE AT THE
MOVIE THEATER AND NOT BE
HARASSED WITH THEIR FAMILY MOST
PEOPLE WANT THEIR SON OR
DAUGHTER. WHO HAS ANOTHER
PROFESSION TO BE ABLE TO DO
THEIR PROFESSION UNDER STATE LAW
AND IN THEIR PRIVATE LIFE NOT
FACE. HARASSMENT OR INTIMIDATION
OR FRANKLY THAT'S RIGHT. THAT'S
WHAT WE EXPECTED THE CIVIL JUST
KIND CARING AND LOVING SOCIETY.
AND THAT'S SIMPLY WHAT THIS BILL
DOES. IT SAYS IF YOUR TEACHING
SOMETHING OR YOU'RE AN EDUCATOR
AND YOU'RE FOLLOWING STATE LAW.
YOUR PRIVATE TIME IS NOT THE
TIME FOR SOMEBODY TO COME UP.
AND HARASS. AND INTIMIDATE YOU.
SO WITH THAT I HAVE WITH ME A
REPRESENTATIVES FROM BOTH CTA.
AND CFT TONY TRIGGER OWN TIFFANY
MOCK TO SPEAK TO THE BILL SO
THANK YOU. THANK YOU MISTER
CHAIR COUNTY TRIGGER ON BEHALF
OF THE CALIFORNIA TEACHERS
ASSOCIATION. IN TWENTY TWENTY TO
THE RAF CORPORATION REALLY
RELEASED THE RESULTS OF THE
SURVEY OF ALMOST FOUR THOUSAND
TEACHERS. AND PRINCIPALS
NATIONWIDE SHOWING AMONG OTHER
THINGS THAT 61% OF PRINCIPLES.
AND 37% OF TEACHERS SURVEYED
REPORTED. EXPERIENCING
HARASSMENT ABOUT POLITICIZED
TOPICS WHICH CONTRIBUTED TO BURN
OUT REQUEST JOB RELATED STRESS
AND SYMPTOMS OF DEPRESSION.
ADDITIONALLY SCHOOLS A
PARTICULARLY TEACHERS HAVE
INCREASINGLY BECOME TARGETS OF
PARENTS AND OTHER INDIVIDUALS
AND GROUPS. SEEKING TO LIMIT
SPECIFIC TYPES OF INSTRUCTIONAL
LIKE CRITICAL RACE THEORY AND
TOPICS RELATED TO GENDER AND
SEXUALITY. R. C. K. MEMBERS
BELIEVE SCHOOL EMPLOYEES SHOULD
BE SAFE FROM AGGRESSIVE AND
VIOLENT BEHAVIORS AS WELL AS
PHYSICAL VERBAL AND
PSYCHOLOGICAL ABUSE PARTICULARLY
GIVEN THE DOCUMENTED INCREASES.
IN THE NUMBER OF CONFRONTATIONAL
ACTIVITIES. FACED BY SCHOOL
EMPLOYEES WE BELIEVE ALL EFFORTS
TO ESTABLISH PRACTICES AND
PROTOCOLS GUARANTEEING THE
SAFETY OF TEACHERS MUST BE
IMMEDIATE AND FAR REACHING SUCH
EFFORTS BENEFIT THE SCHOOL
COMMUNITY. BY IMPACTING TEACHER
RETENTION AND RECRUITMENT AND
ENSURING APPROPRIATE CONDUCT
WITHIN THE COMMUNITY AT LARGE
STE ACKNOWLEDGING THE EDUCATION
WORKFORCE SHORTAGES AND THE
ONGOING ISSUES AROUND TEACHER
RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION. SB
FIVE NINE SIX OFFERS AN
ADDITIONAL LAYER OF SAFETY AND
SECURITY FOR OUR THAT OUR
TEACHERS DESERVE NCTA
RESPECTFULLY REQUEST AN AYE VOTE
ON SB. FIVE NINE SIX. TIVITY
MARKS AFTERNOON OF THE HE SO
MUCH JUST IS WELL FURTHER IN OUR
ALSO BUILDING THIS THE TEST AND
THE BACKGROUND FOR THE BILL HIT
THAT TOPIC FOR. PEOPLE THE
AUTHOR NOTED SHOULD BE FREE FROM
HARASSMENT WHEN THEY'RE NOT AT
WORK BUT I WILL ALSO SAY THAT I
GREW UP AROUND TEACHERS I GREW
UP. ON A BLOCK WITH THREE OF MY
PHONE FEATURES AND THEY WALK THE
STREETS THEY RAN INTO IN THE
GROCERY STORE. IT WAS WONDERFUL
I NOW LIVE IN A NEW COMMUNITY
WHICH IS VERY MUCH LIKE THE ONE
I GREW UP WITH AND I LIFT MY TO
TEACHERS BUT THESE TEACHERS
DON'T GO OUT OF THEIR- HOUSE
THEY THEY HELP ME AS A NEIGHBOR
THEIR SPEARS. HERE TO GO JUST
WALK DOWN THE STREET AND THEY'RE
NOT EVEN TEACHING THE
CONTROVERSIAL TOPICS THAT YOU
SEEN THEIR EXPERIENCED TEACHERS
WHO WE VALUE AS NOTED IN THE
LAST BUILT WITH THE STAFFING
CRISIS AND THEY HAVE CHILDREN OF
THEIR OWN. WE DON'T RECOMMEND
THE PROFESSION BECAUSE THEY SAY
IT'S NOT WHAT IT USED TO BE.
THIS BILL WILL NOT FIX ALL OF
THAT AS WE KNOW BUT IT IS A
SMALL MEASURE THAT GOES TO THE
HEART OF WHERE WE ARE IN THE
STATE H. WHAT THE STATISTICS AND
ANALYSIS. THE GREAT. WE REALLY
TO SEEK A SIMPLE STEPS TO MAKING
A MORE CIVIL SOCIETY SO THAT WE
CAN. GO SEE OUR NEIGHBORS. AT
THE GROCERY. DOWN THE STREET

THEY MIGHT RUN INTO SOMEONE WHO
WILL THREATEN THEIR LIFE FOR
VERASTEM. AND SO FOR THOSE
REASONS HE IF HE IS PROUD TO

AFTERNOON DOROTHY JOHNSON THE
ASSOCIATION OF CALIFORNIA SCHOOL
ADMINISTRATORS PLEASED TO
SUPPORT. PAMELA GIVES WITH THE
LOS ANGELES COUNTY OFFICE OF
EDUCATION IN SUPPORT OF THE BILL
. ANY FURTHER COMMENTS IN
SUPPORT OF THE BILL. WITNESSES
IN OPPOSITION TO THE BILL. THIS
CALL FOR. HELLO MY NAME IS EDWIN
BUS CANYON I AM A FATHER OF TWO
DAUGHTERS A GLENDALE UNIFIED
SCHOOL DISTRICT- I'M HERE IN
OPPOSITION OF BILL FIVE NINETY
SIX THAT IS THE WRONG BILL AT
THE WRONG TIME- CRIMINALIZING
PARENTS FOR PARTICIPATING FOR
QUESTIONING THE TEACHERS AND
THEIR- WHO ARE TEACHING THEIR
CHILDREN- I WOULD LIKE TO POINT
OUT THAT SB FIVE NICE EXPORTS AS
LAW ENFORCEMENT TO GIVE
MISDEMEANOR CHARGES. THOUSAND
DOLLAR FINES OR SIX MONTHS
IMPRISONMENT- TO TWO PARENTS
WERE TEAMS- TO BE HARASSING OR
ANNOYING AN INDIVIDUAL- UP FOR
LOST MAJORITY EXIST FRESHMAN
LAWS EXIST AND THEY ARE ON THE
BOOKS. I DON'T BELIEVE IT'S
NECESSARY TO PUT THE TEACHERS
INTO A PROTECTED CLASS- AND-
ATTACHED SUCH PUNITIVE DAMAGES
TO- TO THE INDIVIDUAL WHO'S
QUESTIONING THEM MANY TIMES. THE
IDEA THAT A PARENT CAN BE
CHARGED FOR A CRIME FOR
EXERCISING THEIR FREE SPEECH
SPECIFICALLY BY POSTING
INFORMATION ABOUT THEIR CHILD'S
TEACHER ALSO SHOULD MEDIA. IS
NOT THE AMERICA I KNOW IT IS THE
AUTHORITARIAN PTERON I MY FAMILY
FRIENDS. FLED FORTY YEARS AGO-
WE ARE BLESSED TO HAVE A OVERLY
MAJORITY OF TEACHERS ARE
DISTRICT THE PHENOMENAL
TEACHERS- MANY HAVE PLAYED A
SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN MY
DAUGHTER'S LIFE I KNOW THAT MANY
WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO- THIS
BILL PROTECTS THE ACTIVIST
TEACHER WHO INSIST. ON PUSHING
AN APPROPRIATE CURRICULUM AND
THE CLASSROOMS AND I URGE YOU TO
VOTE NO ON SB FIVE NINE SIX
THANK YOU. THANK YOU. ANY
FURTHER WITNESSES IN OPPOSITION
TO THE PROPOSED. I NEED TO ROSY
AND MOTHER OF TWO IN GLENDALE
UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT I
REQUEST REPRESENT USD PARENTS
VOICES THE PARENT ADVOCACY GROUP
WITH OVER SIXTEEN THOUSAND
FOLLOWERS. WE OPPOSED SB FIVE
NINE SIX AUTHORED BY MY DISTRICT
ELECTED SENATOR PORTANTINO. THIS
PERRANCE SILENCING BILLS
INTRODUCED BECAUSE H. U. S. T.
TEACHER THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD
IDEA TO TEACH EIGHT YEAR OLD.
ABOUT IN SEXUALITY PARENTS
VOICED THEIR DISPLEASURE THIS
BILL IS REPLACING IS PLACING
TEACHERS ABOVE PARENTS WHICH
WILL RESULT IN THE CONTINUED
DECLINE. IN PUBLIC SCHOOL
ENROLLMENT IN TWENTY SEVENTEEN
THERE WERE SIX POINT TWO MILLION
K. TWELVE STUDENTS IN CALIFORNIA
PUBLIC SCHOOLS. THIS YEAR THERE
ARE FIVE POINT EIGHT MILLION
IGNORING PARENTS WILL RESULT IN
EVEN LOWER ENROLLMENT NEXT YEAR.
THE BILL DESIGNED TO SHUT
PARENTS ABOUT INDOCTRINATING
TEACHERS WHO ARE SEXUALIZING OUR
KIDS. LAWS ARE ALREADY IN PLACE
THAT ADDRESS HARASSMENT AGAINST
ANY PERSON PERCIVAL CODE BY
TWENTY SEVEN POINT SIX. SB FIVE
NINE SIX WILL GRANT TEACHERS
SPECIAL STATUS BEYOND THE CIVIL
CODE. SO THAT PARENTS CAN FACE
UP TO A THOUSAND DOLLARS IN
FINES OR WHEN YOU'RE IN JAIL.
UNDER THE CIVIL CODE OR HARASSER
FACES A RESTRAINING ORDER. THEFT
IS LEGAL UP TO NINE HUNDRED
FIFTY DOLLARS A DAY IN THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA BUT YOU WANTED
YOUR PARENTS. WHO ARE PROTECTING
OUR KIDS. SB FIVE NINE SIX IS
NOT DONE SB FIVE NINE SIX DOES
AFFECT FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHT. IT
REACHES SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS AND
OFF CAMPUS INTERACTION SUCH A
SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS. THE BILL
ANALYSIS THE INTENT OF THE BILL
IS TO CHILL SPEECH WE KNOW IT
AND YOU KNOW IT. WE SENT TO
SENATOR PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
WHICH ARE YET TO BE ACCEPTED
VOTE NO. PARENTS ARE NOT THE
ENEMY THANK YOU. THANK YOU- ANY
PUBLIC COMMENT AN OP. TO THE
BILL PLEASE COME FORWARD AND
PLEASE LIMIT YOUR- COMMENTS TO
NAME AFFILIATION AND POSITION ON
THE BILL. HI RACHEL BHAGWAT WITH
ACLU CALIFORNIA ACTION WE ARE
RESPECTFULLY WORKING WITH
AUTHORS OFFICE AND MOVING
TOWARDS NEUTRAL THANK YOU. THANK
YOU. ANY FURTHER PUBLIC COMMENTS
IN OPPOSITION TO THE BILL.
SEEING NO ONE COMING FORWARD
BRING IT BACK TO THE COMMITTEE.
QUESTIONS FROM THE COMMITTEE.
WELL. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO
AUTHOR TO KIND OF ADDRESS SOME
OF THOSE STATEMENTS THAT WERE
JUST MADE PARTICULARLY ABOUT
BECAUSE I KNOW YOU MADE IN YOUR
COMMENTS THAT THIS DID NOT
ADDRESS SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS. I
MEAN NOT SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER
SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS. AND YET
THE COMMENTER JUST SAID THAT IT
DID. SO THE BILL DOES NOT
AFFECT. THE SCHOOL OF THE SCHOOL
BOARD MEETING DOES NOT AFFECT
FREE SPEECH IN THE BILL. SAYS
RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES THAT ARE
PROTECTED UNDER FREE SPEECH ARE
STILL PROTECTED IN THE BILL.
THIS JUST AGAIN SOME COMMENTS ON
THIS BILL- IF I HAVE TO FURTHER
CLARIFY THE SCHOOL BOARD PLEASE
I WILL BECAUSE THAT IS NOT THE
INTENDED OFF OF. THE POINT IS.
THAT STILL PART OF THE CLASS
CLASSROOMS TO PART OF THE CAMPUS
IT'S STILL CONSIDERED. SCHOOL
ACTIVITIES. AND SO THAT YOU HAVE
SOME FIGHT SOMEBODY MIGHT HAVE A
MEETING OFF CAMPUS MIGHT
CONSIDER THAT OFF CAMPUS BUT
THAT'S NOT WHAT THE BILL THE
INTENT OF THE BILL IS WHEN
THEY'RE ON THEIR OWN TIME. IN
THEIR OWN PRIVATE LIVES TO BE
PROTECTED. NOT DURING THE CAMPUS
BECAUSE THERE'S ALREADY LAWS IN
PLACE TO PROTECT. SCHOOL
EMPLOYEES WHILE ON CAMPUS BUT
THERE'S NO LAWS IN PLACE WHEN
THEY'RE IN THEIR PRIME TIME AND
SO THAT'S THAT'S THAT'S THE
DISTINCTION THAT THE BUILDINGS.
I APPRECIATE THAT CLARIFICATION
AND PROBABLY WOULD BE HELPFUL IN
THE FUTURE TO EVEN CLARIFY IT
MORE. IN THAT SPEAKS TO WHAT I'M
GOING TO SPEAK ABOUT WHICH IS
THE NARRATIVE AND WE HAVE. JUST
VERY VERY POLARIZED STATEMENTS
THAT CONTINUE TO ESCALATE IN
EVERY SPHERE WHETHER IT'S A
MARKET WHETHER IT'S AT A
HOSPITAL WHERE YOU COULD LOOK
AT. THIS MICROPHONE RIGHT HERE
IN ONE GROUP WILL SAY THAT
MICROPHONE IS BLACK AND SOMEBODY
ELSE WILL SAY NO IT'S NOT BLACK.
IT'S READ. IN THERE IS
ABSOLUTELY NO TOLERANCE FOR ANY
CIVIL DISCORD. SO AS A TEACHER
MYSELF AGAIN SADLY NOT ONLY HAVE
I SEEN TEACHERS LEAVE THE
PROFESSION. FOR MULTIPLE REASONS
BUT IT CERTAINLY IS NOT TRUE
THAT PARENTS DO NOT HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO ENGAGE WITH THEIR
TEACHERS AT ANY TIME. A PARENT
CAN REQUEST A TEACHER CONFERENCE
WITH THEIR- TEACHER. THEY CAN
CALL THE PRINCIPLE AND- ASK FOR
A CONFERENCE WITH THE PRINCIPAL
THEY CAN ASK FOR A CONFERENCE
WITH THE SUPERINTENDENT THEY CAN
GO TO BACK TO SCHOOL NIGHT THEY
CAN GO TO ACTIVITIES ON THE
CAMPUS. THERE ARE MANY MANY
OPPORTUNITIES FOR PARENTS TO
ENGAGE WITH STUDENTS OPS NOT
STUDENTS WITH TEACHERS. AND TO
HAVE A CONVERSATION. WHAT IS.
DIFFERENT THAN A CONVERSATION IS
AN ESCALATION OF YELLING
SCREAMING NAME CALLING.
INAPPROPRIATE POSTS ALL OF THESE
THINGS SO IF WE TAKE THE TEACHER
OUT OF IT AND WE THINK OF A
POLICE OFFICER. IS IT
APPROPRIATE TO SHOW UP AT A
POLICE OFFICERS HOUSE AND-
HABITABLE. AND CALL THEM NAMES
SHOW THEM DOWN DO ALL THESE
THINGS IS IT APPROPRIATE TO DO
THAT TO A NURSE. AND YET THESE
ARE THE THINGS THAT ARE
HAPPENING IN MANY MANY PLACES
ACROSS THE UNITED STATES THAT WE
ARE TAKING FIRST MET AMENDMENT
RIGHTS AND SAYING WE HAVE CAN
AND WILL DO THIS. MANY OF US AS
ELECTED LEADERS HAVE SEEN THIS
ON OWN. CONVERSATIONS OR TOWN
HALLS WHERE PEOPLE SHOW UP
THEY'RE NOT INTERESTED IN
HEARING TWO SIDES ARE TWO POINTS
OF VIEW IT'S JUST WE'RE GONNA
SHOUT YOU DOWN. AND THIS IS
HAPPENING AND IT IS INTIMIDATION
WE HEAR IN OUR OWN BUILDING. ARE
ALL HAVE TO GO THROUGH TRAININGS
TRAININGS ON HOW WE- BEHAVE AS
NOT ONLY ELECTED LEADERS BUT HAS
EMPLOYEES IN THIS BUILDING AND
MANY OF THEM REFERRED TO
HARASSMENT TO THREATENING
ENVIRONMENTS- SO I NOT ONLY
SUPPORT THIS BILL. BUT WE NEED
TO AS A SOCIETY START TO LOOK AT
WHAT ARE WE TEACHING OUR
CHILDREN WHEN WE WANT TO ENGAGE
IN THIS YELLING AND SCREAMING
NAME CALLING I MEAN WE SEE IT
ALL THE TIME WITH VIDEOS OF
PEOPLE IT'S NOT ACCEPTABLE WE
NEEDED THIS DE ESCALATE. AND WE
NEED TO GET BACK TO CIVILITY AND
THIS STARTS WITH PARENTS TO I
HAVE FOUR ADULT KIDS AND TO THE
PARENTS WHO ARE THERE. WHO ARE
SAYING NOTICES SHUTTING MY DOWN
MY VOICE IT'S SIMPLY NOT TRUE IF
YOU WANT TO ENGAGE WITH THE
TEACHER ON YOUR CAMPUS OR ANY
OTHER ADMINISTRATOR YOU SIMPLY
CALL YOU EMAIL AND YOU SAY CAN
WE HAVE A. CONFERENCE CAN WE
MEET. IF YOU SAKE I SHOW UP WITH
SOME. AND YEAH HAVE THAT RIGHT
TO BUT WHEN IT CROSSES THE LINE
OF INTIMIDATION THAT IS A
DIFFERENT STORY AND BY THE WAY
WE SAW SOME REALLY REALLY UGLY
EXAMPLES. OF SOME OF THIS PLAY
OUT RECENTLY AT A GLENDALE
GLENDALE SCHOOL BOARD- IT'S JUST
DEVASTATING TO SEE THIS- AND IN
NO WAY DO I NOT. UNDERSTAND
PARENTS SUPPORTED THEIR
CHILDREN. THAT IS YOUR ROLE YOU
SHOULD FULLY BE ENGAGED BUT THIS
IS ABOUT SAYING WHEN DO WE DE
ESCALATE. SO WITHOUT I MOVE
FORWARD MOTION ON YOUR BILL.
THANK YOU MISTER OVER. THANK
YOU- JUST A COUPLE QUESTIONS-
FIRST WHEN THIS WHEN THIS
APPLIES TO SOCIAL MEDIA POSTINGS
FOR EXAMPLE IS THAT SOMETHING
THAT. IS IT'S CLEAR SO UNDER THE
LAW WE THERE'S ALREADY. FREE
SPEECH COMPONENTS THE BILL MAKES
IT VERY CLEAR THAT IF SOMEBODY'S
ACTUALLY SIZING CONSTITUTIONALLY
PROTECTED SPEECH- FOR EXAMPLE.
PEOPLE HAVE FREE SPEECH FOR YOU
CAN'T YELL FIRE IN A CROWDED.
THE- MOVIE THEATER I MEAN FOR
THE OF THOSE COMMONSENSE.
UNDERSTANDINGS OF WHAT FREE
SPEECH IS ARE BEING CHANGED BY
THIS BUT IF YOU'RE ON SOCIAL
MEDIA THREATENING SOMEBODY'S
LIFE SAYING I'M GONNA COME TO
YOUR HOUSE AND I'M GOING TO KILL
YOU. THAT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED
THAT'S DIFFERENT THAN SAYING I
DON'T LIKE. MY TEACHERS GOT I
MEAN IT'S HARD TO ANSWER THE
QUESTION WITHOUT KNOWING THE
ACTUAL CONTEXT OF THE FREQUENCY
AND ALL OF THE OTHER
IMPLICATIONS HERE TO THE PROPER
LAW ENFORCEMENT FOLKS EVALUATE
WHEN THEY ASSESS THESE THINGS
BUT INTERIOR THREAT OR
HARASSMENT COULD COULD HAPPEN
ONLINE IF IT'S OUTSIDE THE
SCHOOL DAY- THE OUTSIDE RIGHT. I
MEAN IN THEORY IT COULD APPLY TO
IN THEORY THERE CON MY NUMBER.
THERE'S COULD BE SOMEBODY
THREATENING SOMEBODY'S LIFE
ONLINE AND THAT PERSON GOT THEIR
THREATEN SOMEBODY'S LIFE I MEAN
WOULD YOU THREATEN SOMEBODY'S
LIFE ONLINE. I WOULD NOT LIST
YOU WOULD NOT. SO WHEN YOU CASE
IF BE GERMANE BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT
PAYING ONLINE FRIEND. LIFE IF
YOU SURE YOU MIGHT ON SOCIAL
MEDIA EXPRESSION DISAPPOINTED
WITH SOMEBODY THAT'S A
DIFFERENT. RIGHT ISSUE YEAH I
THINK- OKAY THAT'S HELPFUL SO.
AND THEN THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO
THE PROTECTION OF SCHOOL BOARD
MEMBERS CORRECT IT'S JUST
TEACHERS OR WOULD ALSO EXTEND TO
ALL SCHOOL EMPLOYEES CALLED
POLICE- IN THEIR PRIVATE LIFE
AGAIN OKAY. WE'RE MAKING A
DISTINCTION BETWEEN WHEN YOU'RE
ON CAMPUS HAVING NORMAL REGULAR
INTERACTIONS WITH YOU AGAIN THIS
DOES NOT TAKE AWAY AN OCCURRENCE
RIGHTS. DURING THE NORMAL COURSE
OF SCHOOL BUSINESS BUT IF YOU'RE
ON YOUR OWN TIME. IF YOU'RE IN
THE STARBUCKS WITH YOUR FAMILY
YEAH SOMEBODY SHOULDN'T COME UP
TO YOU AND THREATEN YOUR LIFE.
THANK YOU- THROUGH THE CHAIR I
WAS ACTUALLY CURIOUS IF ACL YOU
WOULDN'T MIND JUST. GOING A
LITTLE DEEPER INTO YOUR- WITH
THE BILL- BECAUSE I'M TRYING TO.
LIKE IS IT FIRST AMENDMENT
CONCERNS LIKE I'M REALLY CURIOUS
WHAT. THE CONCERN IS A FROM THE
ACLU. IF I MADE IT WITH YEAH
WHERE THEY COME OUT SURE- WE ARE
WEAK THEY HAVE SUBMITTED A LIST
OF AMENDMENTS AND- I BELIEVE
WE'RE GOING TO TAKE. OKAY ALMOST
ALL OF THEIR MOMENTS OTHER
SKILLS AND WE'RE STILL TRYING TO
FIGURE OUT. BUT WE'RE WE'RE I
THINK WE'RE ON A GOOD PATH SO
ANYWAY BUT THAT'S HELPFUL YEAH
I'M SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES. THE
FACT IS THE REPRESENTED FOR THE
ACLU. YES. HI THERE- THANK YOU
AND I WANT TO REITERATE THAT WE
HAVE MET WITH SENATOR
PORTANTINO'S OFFICE AND HIS
STAFF AND- ON HAVE SUBMITTED
SOME THOUGHTS AND HE'S BEEN VERY
GENEROUS AND DISGUSTING AND- YOU
KNOW AS- TAKING THOSE SERIOUSLY-
I'M SORRY I'M JUST LOOKING
QUICKLY AT. OUR ON LETTER IT YOU
KNOW WE SUPPORT WE SHARE CENTER
PORTANTINO'S CONCERN IN SUPPORT
OF TEACHERS AND I THINK-
GENERALLY WE FELT THAT EXISTING
LAW AROUND ON CRIMINAL STALKING
HARASSMENT COVERED. A LOT OF-
WHAT WAS SORT OF IN THE SPELL
AND WANTED TO IT ALSO MAKE SURE
THAT- WE WERE PROTECTING
STUDENTS AND NOT CRIMINALIZING
STUDENTS. ON THAT SIDE ALL OF
THIS IS BEING DISCUSSED WITH THE
AUTHOR'S OFFICE AND I YOU KNOW
WANT TO BE RESPECTFUL OF THAT
CONVERSATION OF THAT
RELATIONSHIP THANK YOU. AND IF I
COULD ADD TO WE HAVE GOTTEN AS
THE PARENTS WHO ARE CRITICAL OF
THE WE HAVE THEIR AMENDMENTS TO
AND WE'RE LOOKING AT THOSE OKAY.
PERFECT I APPRECIATE THAT I
THANK YOU FOR CONTINUING. TO
WORK WITH THOSE GROUPS I'M GONNA
JUST SAY. I GONNA BE SUPPORTING
BILL TODAY- BECAUSE- AS PASSION
IS AS THESE MANY OF THESE ISSUES
ARE AND I THINK THERE'S A LOT OF
PASSIONATE ISSUES TO GET
DISCUSSES OUR SCHOOL BOARD
MEETINGS. IN YET YOU KNOW IN OUR
SCHOOL DISTRICTS- I THINK THERE
IS A WAY TO GO ABOUT THIS IN A
CIVIL WAY WE CAN HAVE THESE
DIALOGUES IN THE CIVIL WAY- AND
I ACTUALLY BELIEVE THAT THE VAST
MAJORITY OF PARENTS ARE DOING
THAT- I THINK THAT IN. IN MOST
CASES AS SOMEONE THAT SERVED ON
THE SCHOOL BOARD THROUGHOUT THE
PANDEMIC I WE GOT INTO SOME
REALLY PASSIONATE DEBATES AND
ARGUMENTS- WHEN IT CAME TO RE
OPENING SCHOOLS AND FIGHTING FOR
OUR KIDS AND SO- AND AS A PARENT
MYSELF YOU KNOW I THINK IT'S
REALLY IMPORTANT THAT WERE ABLE
TO HAVE THOSE DISCUSSIONS. SO I
DO I DO NOT SUPPORT THREATS OR
HARASSMENT AND THEY DO SUPPORT
CIVIL DIALOGUE SITE AND THAT'S
WHY I'M IN SUPPORT YOUR BILL
TODAY- I WOULD THOUGH ADD A
COMMENT IN THIS ISN'T
NECESSARILY DIRECTED YOU CENTER.
BUT I THINK ANOTHER THING THAT
WOULD VASTLY HELP THE SITUATION
IN CALIFORNIA IS TO STOP
INJECTING POLITICS INTO OUR
CLASSROOMS. I TO START HAVING
GREATER RESPECT FOR PARENTAL
RIGHTS- TO HAVE A GREATER
RESPECT. FOR THE DIFFERENCES OF
OPINION THAT EXIST AT THE LOCAL
LEVEL- AND TO ACTUALLY FOCUSED
ON TEACHING OUR KIDS HOW TO READ
AND WRITE. AND GETTING AWAY FROM
POLITICS IN THE CLASSROOM WE ARE
FIFTIETH. IN LITERACY IN OUR
STATE WE ARE FAILING OUR LOW
INCOME STUDENTS WE ARE FAILING-
SO MANY OF OUR KIDS IN THE STATE
IN OUR SCHOOLS- AND THAT'S WHAT
I THINK WE NEED TO BE FOCUSED
ON- IMPROVING. AT AND NOT
INJECTING POLITICS INTO THE
CLASSROOM- BUT WITHOUT SAID I
WILL BE SUPPORT FOR YOUR BILL
TODAY THANK YOU. THANK YOU UP
FRAZIER DOLLAR. THANK YOU. SO I
WILL I'M REALLY NOT THE BILL
TODAY. TO LOOK TOWARDS AS
AMENDMENTS THAT YOU'RE GOING TO
BE TAKING AT THE NEXT STEP SAID
LOOK AT THOSE- AS WELL. NO I
AGREE IT'S AN ALARMING RATE OF
STUDENTS THAT ARE NOT RETURNING
BACK TO OUR SCHOOLS. AND WE
REALLY NEED TO LOOK AT PARENTS
ARE IMPORTANT. IN THOSE
CONVERSATIONS AND TO MAKE SURE
THAT OUR KIDS ARE BACK ON OUR
CAMPUSES. SO I LOOK FOR THE TO
THE AMENDMENTS PARTICULARLY FROM
PARENT GROUPS THAT YOU'RE
LOOKING AT THOSE AND TO SEE IF I
CAN- GET TO A SUPPORT IN THE
FUTURE. THANK YOU. SAYING NO
FURTHER. COMMENTS FROM THE
COMMITTEE. SIR PORTANTINO THANK
YOU VERY MUCH AGAIN. FOR
ADDRESSING A VERY TIMELY ISSUE I
THINK WE ALL RECOGNIZE. L- NOT
ONLY DIVISIVE BUT- THE
COARSENESS OF- OF- DISCOURSE- I
HAS AS BECOME. YOU KNOW TOO
OFTEN. YOU KNOW CROSSING THE
LINE TO- THREATENING OR
HARASSING LIKE. YOU KNOW I
CERTAINLY- YOU KNOW MY ONE OF MY
FIRST REACTIONS WELL WE SHOULD
EXTEND THIS TO STATE LEGISLATORS
YOU KNOW I THINK WE CAN ALL THE-
YOU KNOW THE RECORD I'M NOT
OFFERING THEM. OKAY. BUT THE-
YOU KNOW I THINK THAT RAISES.
IMPORTANT QUESTIONS- IN TERMS
OF- YOU KNOW WHAT. CONDUCT
CROSSES THE LINE AND WHERE TO
DRAW THE LINE AND- I. CONCUR
WITH THE- MIKE MY COLLEAGUE
FROM- FULSOME THAT- THAT- YOU
KNOW WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT
WE ARE. PROTECTING OUR TEACHERS-
DRAWING THE LINE BUT NOT IN A
WAY THAT- THAT WOULD INFRINGE ON
FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS I KNOW
THAT YOU HAVE THE- BILL LANGUAGE
IN YOUR BILL THAT- CONCERTS THE
PROTECTED ACTIVITY IS NOT
INCLUDED- BUT LIKE FOR EXAMPLE.
THE LANGUAGE OF THE DEFINITION
OF HARASSMENT THIS SERIOUSLY
ALARMS ANNOYS OR HARASSES THE
PERSON- I MEAN I CAN SEE HOW
THAT- MIGHT INVITE. SOME LAWYERS
TO- TO CHALLENGE THAT LANGUAGE-
BUT- AGAIN I MEAN I DISAPPOINTED
THAT THIS BILL DOESN'T LOOK LIKE
IT'S GOING TO JUDICIARY WHERE I
THINK THEY WOULD BE- ABLE TO
MORE FULLY EXPLORE THE FIRST
AMENDMENT ISSUES BUT I FULLY
SUPPORT THE- THE GOAL INTENT- OF
THE BILL. AND- SO WITH THAT-
CENTER PORTANTINO WHICH LIKE TO
CLOSE BY I APPRECIATE THAT ALL
OF THE INPUT- I ALWAYS LIKE TO
SAY IF YOU HAVE CONCERNS FROM
THE LEFT AND THE RIGHT YOU MUST
BE. HITTING THE RIGHT SWEET SPOT
AND SO CLEARLY WEEK WE HAVE
CONCERNS FROM FROM MULTIPLE
PERSPECTIVES WHICH I THINK IS A
GOOD THING AND I THINK THE
CONVERSATION TODAY WAS HEALTHY
AND PRODUCTIVE- I AM GOING TO
TAKE ALL OF YOUR COMMENTS BACK.
WE ALL WANT THE BEST PUBLIC
POLICY HERE AS I SAID IN THE
BEGINNING IT MAKES ME SAD THAT
I'M EVEN PRESENTING THIS BILL
YOU KNOW I THINK BACK TO- YOU
KNOW THE BE ATTITUDES YOU KNOW
BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS FOR
THEY SHALL BE THE CHILDREN OF
GOD AND I THINK. I THINK IT WAS
CHOSEN SPECIFICALLY OF ALL OF
THE BEATITUDES THAT. WHEN YOU
TRY TO MAKE PEACE IT'S THE MOST
DIFFICULT TASK WHICH IS WHY.
THAT'S THE LINE- AND SO. YOU
KNOW WE'RE TRYING TO MAKE SURE
THAT THOSE WHO WE TRUST OUR KIDS
WITH. ARE MALIGNED IN
INTIMIDATION THREATEN BECAUSE
THEY'RE FOLLOWING STATE LAW. AND
IF PEOPLE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH
STATE LAW THAT'S A DIFFERENT
ISSUE. TAKE THOSE COMPLAINTS TO
YOUR LAWMAKERS. YOU KNOW. THIS
ALSO ASSUMES THAT A TEACHER
MIGHT BE TEACHING SOMETHING THAT
THEY DON'T EVEN AGREE WITH WHAT
THEY'RE TEACHING UNDER THE LAW.
YOU SHOULD NOT BE FACED WITH
THREATS IN THEIR PRIVATE LIFE
AND SO I REALLY APPRECIATE THE
DEPTH OF THE CONVERSATION WE'RE
GOING TO CONTINUE TO WORK ON
THIS IT'S A SERIOUS. ISSUE FROM
ALL PERSPECTIVES THAT HAVE BEEN
RAISED TODAY. AND REST ASSURED
THAT WE'RE GOING TO GIVE IT THAT
CARE THAT IT NEEDS AND HOPEFULLY
GET SOMETHING. ON THE GOVERNOR'S
DESK THAT ADDRESSES CONCERNS BUT
ALSO PROTECTS THOSE FOLKS WHO
WHO ARE ON SCHOOL CAMPUSES SO
WITH THAT I RESPECTFULLY ASK

ON THE APPROACH ADOPTED FOR
INSTALLING ELECTRIC VEHICLE

FEDERAL AND STATE. REQUIREMENTS
BUT IT WILL NOT TRIGGER THE
SECONDARY IMPROVEMENTS TO THE
OTHER AREAS OF THE CAMPUS THAT
MADE CAMPUS CHEATING TOO
EXPENSIVE TO BUILD. FOR INSTANCE
A SHADE STRUCTURE THE COST
EIGHTY THOUSAND DOLLARS TO
PURCHASE AND INSTALL. THE FINAL
PRICE TAG THAT IS HUNDREDS OF

ABOUT SB FIVE FOR ONE THAT'S THE
TOWARDS. THE HARDWARE OF. WERE
C. IN OUR- RIGHT NOW WE'RE
SEEING THAT OVER FIFTY PER. OF
S. ARE HELD BY OUR YOUNG IN THE-
ARE OUR OUR YOUTH AND MY BILL IS
LOOKING TO ADDRESS THAT IS ALSO
LOOKING TO ADDRESS AND PROVIDE
GREATER ACCESS TO INDIVIDUALS
WHO WISH TO OBTAIN. THE HPV
VACCINE. WE'RE LOOKING TO
ADDRESS THE EPIDEMIC IN
CALIFORNIA'S TRUTH IMPROVE OUR
PUBLIC HEALTH OUTCOMES AND BY
EXPANDING LIKE A MAKESHIFT AND
MENTION ACCESS TO CONDOMS IN ALL
THEIR HIGH SCHOOLS AND PUBLIC
HIGH SCHOOLS I WILL BE TAKING
THE COMMITTEE AMENDMENTS THANK
YOU SO MUCH FOR WORKING WITH MY
TEAM ON THAT. SPECIFICALLY THIS
BILL IS LOOKING TO DO FOR
DIFFERENT THINGS. IT'S REQUIRING
HIGH SCHOOLS TO PROVIDE ACCESS
TO BOTH INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL
CONDOMS FREE FOR OUR HIGH SCHOOL
STUDENTS TO WITH THE BAHRAIN
HIGH SCHOOLS FROM PROHIBITING
CONDOMS TO BE DISTRIBUTED WHEN
EIGHT SEX EDUCATION- COURSES
BEING OFFERED- ANY CLASSES THAT
ARE BEING OFFERED BY COMMUNITY
THAT GOING TOWARDS GOING TO
THEIR SCHOOLS. THREE IT
PROHIBITS PHARMACIES ARE
RETAILERS FROM ASKING FOR AN I.
D. ONE PURCHASING A CONDOM RIGHT
NOW THERE IS NO STATE LAW THAT
REQUIRES AN INDIVIDUAL TO
PRODUCE AN IDEA TO CLICK TO SHOW
THAT THEY'RE EIGHTEEN YEARS OLD
TO PURCHASE A CONDOM. THERE IS
NO LAW ON THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA SAYS YOU HAVE TO BE
X. AMOUNT OF AGES TO PURCHASE OF
CONDOM YET PEOPLE ARE ASKING
INDIVIDUALS TO PER TO- PRODUCING
ID. AND FOURTH IT'S ENSURING
THAT THERE'S NO WRONG DOOR FOR
THE HPV VACCINE IT'S ASKING FOR
EVERY SINGLE FAMILY PACKED TO
PROVIDE PACKED TO PROVIDE THE
HPV VACCINES FOR INDIVIDUALS
TWELVE YEARS AND OLDER. CURRENT
STATE CURRENT LAW IN THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA ALLOWS A TWELVE
YEAR OLD TO MAKE THEIR OWN
REPRODUCTIVE DECISION THIS JUST
GOES IN LINE WITH THAT IS NOT
CHANGING THE AGE IS JUST SAYING
THAT SHOULD THEY WISH TO GO TO A
FAMILY PACK. EVERY SINGLE FAMILY
PACK SHOULD HAVE THAT AVAILABLE
WE'RE EXPERIENCE A CRISIS AND
THIS IS OUR WAY TO ENSURE THAT
THEY HAVE- ACCESS TO THESE
ENTITIES. I RECOGNIZE I AM NOT A
PARENT BUT I CAN I RECOGNIZE I
WAS THE DAUGHTER- MY MOM WAS
ALWAYS WITH ME TWENTY FOUR SEVEN
PARENTS HERE YOU CAN ALWAYS BE
WITH YOUR CHILDREN. TWENTY FOUR
SEVEN. I'M NOT SAYING THAT I'M
NOT TAKING AWAY THE CONVERSATION
OF A PARENT AND THE CHILD TO
HAVE SHOULD THEY WISH TO BE
SEXUALLY ACTIVE. HOWEVER BECAUSE
WE ADULTS ARE NOT WITH CHILDREN
TWENTY FOUR SEVEN IT IS SAFE TO
ASSUME THAT THEY'RE IN. IT AND
THERE ARE. SOME I'M INTO. WHO
ARE YOU WITH THAT PRACTICE
SUCKS. AND WHEN THEY'RE BEING
TURNED AWAY FROM HER CONDO IT'S
NOT DETERRING THEM FROM.
PRACTICE PRACTICING SEX IT'S
ACTUALLY HAVING THEM. PROJECTS
UNSAFE SEX. THE CDC ACTUALLY
JUST ABOUT A MONTH AGO A MONTH
AND A HALF MAYBE TWO MONTHS AGO
CAME OUT WITH THEIR MOST RECENT
REPORT. ON THE WRECKS RISKS WITH
OUR CHILDREN WE'RE SEEING A
HIGHER. RATE OF INDIVIDUALS NOT
UTILIZING CONDOMS ONE IN. FIVE
WOMEN RIGHT NOW GROSS- HAVE AN
STI- WE'RE SEEING A DECREASE IN
CONDOM USAGE WILL WANT TO MAKE
SURE THAT. THESE ARE ACCESSIBLE
IN OUR SCHOOLS. THIS IS A NEW
PHENOMENON- THE CONDOM
AVAILABILITY PROGRAMS IN SCHOOLS
BEGAN IN THE EARLY. NINETIES
WERE SEEN- L. A. U. S. T. IN LA.
THE SERGEANTS UNIFIED DISTRICT
HAVEN'T HAVING THEM THE SAN
FRANCISCO UNIFIED DISTRICT
HAVING THEM WE WANT TO MAKE SURE
THERE'S EQUITY ACROSS THE ENTIRE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA. WE ALL KNOW
IN A ROW AREAS THERE'S NOT A LOT
OF ACCESS TO HEALTH EQUITY-
SHOULD YOU NOT HAVE ACCESS TO
PROTECTIVE- TO CONDOMS AND YOU
HAVE AN STI YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE
ACCESS TO A COMMUNITY CLINIC YOU
MIGHT NOT HAVE ACCESS TO A
HOSPITAL- BECAUSE- YOU. WHEN YOU
NEED TREATMENT FOR AN STI SO WE
WANT TO BE PREVENTATIVE IN THAT
MATTER. HERE WITH ME- TO TALK
ABOUT THIS AND PROVIDE TESTIMONY
AS THIS BILL IS BEING LED. BY
YOUTH I'M VERY PROUD OF THAT IS
SIERRA LOW- AN IMPEACH PROJECT
DIRECTOR OF CALIFORNIA SCHOOL
BASED HEALTH ALLIANCE BUT ALSO
ESPERANZA BOWER. WHO JUST
GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL. IN
AS A SACRAMENTO RESIDENT. HI MY
NAME IS SIERRA AND I'M SO
HEALTH. DIRECT WITH THE K.
SCHOOL BASED HEALTH. I SPENT
OVER SEVEN YEARS WORKING IN
SCHOOL BASED HEALTH CENTERS- AT
PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND HELPING
INCREASE STUDENTS ACCESS TO HIGH
QUALITY HEALTHCARE. THE
CALIFORNIA SCHOOL BASED HEALTH
ALLIANCE HOME SUPPORTER OF
AROUND FOUR HUNDRED SCHOOL BASED
HEALTH AND WELLNESS CENTRES IN
K. THROUGH TWELVE SCHOOLS ACROSS
CALIFORNIA. SCHOOL BASED HEALTH
CENTERS PROVIDE FREE MEDICAL AND
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CARE AND MANY
ALSO PROVIDE DENTAL CARE
OPTOMETRY SERVICES. AND A
VARIETY OF ANCILLARY SERVICES
ALL OF WHICH ARE YOU CENTER.
RESEARCH SHOWS THAT SCHOOL BASED
HEALTH CENTERS HAVE A POSITIVE
IMPACT ON ABSENCES DROPOUT RATES
DISCIPLINARY PROBLEMS AND OTHER
ACADEMIC OUTCOMES OVERALL SCHOOL
BASED HEALTH CENTERS ENHANCE.
ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE BY
BRINGING MEDICALLY ACCURATE AND
AGE APPROPRIATE CARE DIRECTLY TO
OUR STUDENTS SPEND MOST OF THEIR
TIME AT SCHOOL. CALIFORNIA YOUTH
AGES FIFTEEN TO TWENTY FOUR MAKE
UP OVER HALF OF ALL SEXUALLY
TRANSMITTED INFECTION OR STI
CASES. THEY MAKE UP ABOUT 60% OF
COMMITTEE CASE CASES ONE OF THE
MOST COMMON S. T. EYES WHICH CAN
LEAD TO SERIOUS HEALTH
CONSEQUENCES IF LEFT UNTREATED.
COMES ARE THE ONLY FORM OF BIRTH
CONTROL OTHER PROTECT AGAINST
STI'S. STEADY SHOW THAT IN HIGH
SCHOOLS ARE CONDOMS ARE READILY
AVAILABLE YOUNG PEOPLE WHO ARE
SEXUALLY ACTIVE ARE TWICE AS
LIKELY AS OTHER STUDENTS TO HAVE
USED A CONDOM DURING THEIR LAST
SEXUAL ENCOUNTER. MAKING CONDOMS
MORE WIDELY AVAILABLE DOES NOT
ENCOURAGE YOUNG PEOPLE TO BECOME
SEXUALLY ACTIVE. BY HAVING FREE
CONDOMS AT SCHOOL YOUNG PEOPLE
WHO ARE SEXUALLY ACTIVE WILL BE
ABLE TO MAKE SAFER AND HEALTHIER
CHOICES. IN ADDITION ACCESS TO
CONDOMS REDUCES THE STIGMA
SURROUNDING SEXUAL HEALTH. AND
ENCOURAGES CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULTS. A
CONVERSATION THEY MAY NOT HAVE
BEEN ABLE TO HAVE OTHERWISE.
THAT'S EMPOWERING YOUNG PEOPLE
TO. MAKE EDUCATED DECISIONS
ABOUT THEIR HEALTH. THE
CALIFORNIA SCHOOL BASED HEALTH
ALLIANCE. STRONGLY SUPPORTS SB
FIVE FOUR ONE TO MAKE CONDOMS.
FREE AND ACCESSIBLE IN PUBLIC
HIGH SCHOOLS ULTIMATELY
INCREASING THEIR AVAILABILITY.
AND HELPING REDUCE THE
DISPROPORTIONATE BURDEN OF SCI'S
AN UNPLANNED PREGNANCIES ON
YOUNG PEOPLE. ASSEMBLY MEMBER
MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE HELLO
MY NAME IS ESPERANZA BILL OR AND
I'M A DIRECTOR OF ORGANIZING FOR
GENERATION UP IN A RECENT
GRADUATE FROM ROSE MY HIGH
SCHOOL. I AM HONORED TO TESTIFY
IN FAVOR OF SB FIVE FOUR ONE A
PROPOSED BILL THAT WOULD REQUIRE
FREE CONDOMS TO BE MADE
AVAILABLE TO STUDENTS WITHIN
SCHOOLS. AS I NAVIGATED THE
CHALLENGING JOURNEY OF
ADOLESCENCE I WITNESSED
FIRSTHAND THE PRESSURES THAT
YOUNG PEOPLE FACE DAILY IN OUR
LIVES. WE'RE CONSTANTLY BEING
SENT MIXED SIGNALS ABOUT OUR
RELATIONSHIPS SEXUALITY AND ARE
EXPECTED TO MAKE RESPONSIBLE
DECISIONS. IT'S WITHIN THIS
CONTEXT THAT I FIRMLY ADVOCATE
FOR YOUR SUPPORT ON THIS BILL.
CONDOMS ARE MORE THAN JUST
ROBERT THEY REPRESENTS SAFETY
AND EMPOWERMENT IN ARE THE KEY
TO PROMOTING RESPONSIBLE
BEHAVIOR. AS WE EXPLORE AND
DISCOVER OUR OWN IDENTITIES THEY
SAFEGUARD OUR PHYSICAL AND
EMOTIONAL WELL BEING. ENSURING
CONDOM ACCESSIBILITY IN SCHOOLS
ACKNOWLEDGES THE REALITY OF
TEENAGE RELATIONSHIPS AND
PROTECTS THOSE WHO ARE ENGAGED
IN SEXUAL RELATIONSHIPS.
ALTHOUGH IT IS A COMMON ARGUMENT
I CAN ASSURE YOU THAT MAKING
CONDOMS AVAILABLE IN SCHOOLS
DOES NOT PROMOTE PROMISCUITY.
INSTEAD IT SENT A POWERFUL
MESSAGE THAT OUR STATE
PRIORITIZES THE HEALTH AND
SAFETY OF ITS YOU. I HAVE
FRIENDS WHO HAVE MADE THE
DECISION TO HAVE SEX ALTHOUGH I
FIND THAT THE ONES WHO'VE BEEN
TAUGHT TO BE SHAMEFUL ABOUT IT.
AND WE'RE NOT PROVIDED WITH
NECESSARY SUPPORT ENDED UP BEING
MORE SECRETIVE AND PUTTING
THEMSELVES IN DANGER BECAUSE
THEY WOULD RATHER TAKE THE RISKS
THEY FACE TROUBLE AND SHAME FOR
ATTEMPTING TO ACCESS CONDOMS. MY
FRIENDS WHO DID THAT WERE
PROVIDED SUPPORT WE'RE THE ONES
THAT PRACTICE SAFE SEX AND WHEN
SOMETHING DID END UP WRONG THEY
WERE THE FIRST TO SPEAK UP ABOUT
IT AND GOT THE ATTENTION THEY
NEED IT. THE DIFFERENCE HERE IS
NOT THEIR DECISION IT IS HOW
SAFE THEY WORK DOING SOME. BY
SUPPORTING THE SPELL WEAK
KNOWLEDGE OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO
PROTECT THE VULNERABLE EDUCATE
ONE ANOTHER AND FOSTER FUTURE
WHERE GROWTH IS NURTURED IN OUR
YOUTH ARE EMPOWERED. THAT IS WHY
WE URGE YOU TO SUPPORT THIS BILL
THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
THANK YOU VERY MUCH A PUBLIC

GROUP REPRESENTING THOUSANDS OF
MEMBERS ACROSS CALIFORNIA
PARENTS. TEACHERS GUARDIANS
GRANDPARENTS AND TODAY GIVEN
THIS OPPORTUNITY I WOULD LIKE TO
JUST INFORM YOU OF SOME OF THE
CONCERNS THAT WE'VE HEARD FROM
OUR MEMBERS. AND WE'RE NOT
NECESSARILY IN OPPOSITION BUT
THERE ARE SOME CONCERNS AND- I
AM. HERE WHETHER THIS- MANY OF
OUR MEMBERS EXPRESSED THAT IT
SHOULD BE UP TO EACH SCHOOL
DISTRICT TO DECIDE WHETHER A
SCHOOL SHOULD PROVIDE FREE
CONDOMS ON CAMPUS OR NOT. SB
FIVE FOUR ONE MAKES IT A
STATEWIDE MANDATE WHICH TRAMPLES
ON THE LOCAL CONTROL EACH SCHOOL
DISTRICT SERVES A VERY UNIQUE
POPULATION AND OUR MEMBERS
STRONGLY BELIEVES THE SCHOOL
BOARD MEMBERS THAT ARE LOCALLY
ELECTED SHOULD BE MAKING LOCAL
DECISIONS THAT AFFECT THE
FAMILIES THEY SERVE INCLUDING.
THE DECISION ON DISTRIBUTING
CONDOMS TO STUDENTS. MANY OF OUR
MEMBERS APPRECIATE REPRODUCTIVE
HEALTH LESSONS BEING PART OF
EDUCATION AT HIGH SCHOOL HOWEVER
HAVING CONDOMS AVAILABLE ALL THE
TIME IS NOT SOMETHING THEY
BELIEVE IS. NEEDED OR-
APPROPRIATE A SCHOOL'S MAIN
FOCUS SHOULD BE ACADEMICS. M.
MOREOVER SB FIVE FOUR ONE WITH
EXTENT DISTRIBUTION OF CONDOMS
TO GREAT SEVEN EIGHT WHICH IS
SOMETHING OUR MEMBERS WERE ALSO
CONCERNED ABOUT BECAUSE OF THE
AGE OF THE STUDENT. M. SOME OF
OUR MEMBERS. EXPRESSED THAT SB
FIVE FOUR ONE. IS A BILL THAT
WOULD THE TO DIMINISH ROLE OF
PARENTS WERE TRYING ROLL BACK
POLICE THAT'S AS THE CHILDREN.
AND AT WHICH IS. ABOUT OF THE
CHILDREN IN MIDDLE SCHOOL AND
RATHER THAN LEAVE THIS MOTHERING
THE HOME THIS BILL USES THE
POWER OF THE STATE TO IMPOSE THE
POLICY ON EVERY SCHOOL
REGARDLESS OF WHAT PARENTS WANT
IN THE- LOCAL COMMUNITY. SO HERE
ARE THE CONCERNS WE HAVE AND IN
CONCLUSION WE HAVE OUR MEMBERS I
WOULD LIKE YOU TO CONSIDER. THAT
MANY PARENTS AND GUARDIANS IN
CALIFORNIA BELIEVE THAT THE
STATE OFTEN TRIES TO. TAKE MORE
OF A PARENTAL ROLE AND WHEN
PARENTS SHOULD BE THE ONES
ALWAYS IN CHARGE. THIS IS ONE OF
THE REASONS MANY OF OUR MEMBERS
ALREADY EXIST AT THE PUBLIC
SCHOOL SYSTEM AND MEN THERE ARE
STILL CONSIDERING. OUR GOAL AS
OUR S. C. P. UNION IS TO RESTORE
PARENTAL TRUST IN PUBLIC
EDUCATION AND TO PROVIDE
ALTERNATIVES FOR PARENTS. THAT'S
ALREADY LOST THIS TRUST THANK

THANKS SO MUCH I'M PRESENTING SP
THREE FORTY EIGHT I'M ACCEPTING
THE COMMITTEES AMENDMENTS THAT
ARE OUTLINED IN THE ANALYSIS ALL
OF THEM. ON CALIFORNIA VERY
PROUDLY IS THE FIRST STATE IN
OUR NATION TO PROVIDE OUR K.
THROUGH TWELVE PUBLIC SCHOOL
STUDENTS UNIVERSAL MEALS AND
OTHER WORDS OF FREE FREE TWO
MEALS A DAY FOR ALL OF OUR
STUDENTS AND WITH THIS GREAT
ACHIEVEMENT. MANY MANY OF OUR
STUDENTS NO LONGER GO TO SCHOOL
HUNGRY THEY MAY ARRIVE HUNGRY
BUT THEY'RE NO LONGER AT SCHOOL
HUNGRY. I'M. BUT THIS IS A GREAT
THING BUT IT'S ALSO NOW WE'RE IN
THE POSITION OF PROVIDING FOR
MANY OF THESE KIDS OVER HALF THE
CALORIES THAT THEY GET IN A DAY.
SO WE WANT TO ENSURE THAT THE
MEALS WE PROVIDE. MEET ALL THE
GRID NUTRITION STANDARDS AND
WITH THE RISE IN DIABETES AND
VARIOUS OTHER- HEALTH PROBLEMS
THAT CAN BECOME CHRONIC FOR OUR
CHILDREN. WHAT THIS BILL DOES SB
THREE FORTY EIGHT IS
STRENGTHENED OUR NUTRITION
GUIDELINES AND INSURERS THAT.
OUR MEALS MEET THE ACADEMY OF
PEDIATRICS GUIDELINES FOR THE
AMOUNT OF ADDED SUGAR AND SALT
SO YES ADDED SUGAR AND SO CAN
STILL BE THERE. IT'S JUST LEVELS
THAT THE AT THE CALAMY
PEDIATRICS RECOMMEND-
ADDITIONALLY THE BILL- MAKE SURE
THAT SCHOOL SKI OF OUR CHILDREN
ADEQUATE TIME TO EAT. AND
INCREASES CALIFORNIA'S
PARTICIPATION IN THE NEW FEDERAL
SUMMER SCHOOL PROGRAM- AND OUR
BUDGET THAT WE JUST PASSED
INCLUDES OUR ABILITY TO APPLY TO
THE FEDS FOR THAT WHICH WOULD
ENABLE US TO ACHIEVE AT LEAST
FOUR HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS SO.
SO THAT'S WHAT THIS BILL DOES
AND I'D LIKE MY WITNESSES IN
SUPPORT I HAVE AARON PRIMER
WHO'S A DIETARY MANAGER AND
DIRECTOR FOOD NUTRITION AT SAN
LUIS COASTAL UNIFIED SCHOOL
DISTRICT. AND DOCTOR AL SARRAF
AN INTERNAL MEDICINE PHYSICIAN
IN LOS ANGELES. THANK YOUNG GOOD
EVENING CHAIR MURATSUCHI
HONORABLE MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE MY NAME IS ERIN PRIMER
AND I AM THE DIRECTOR OF FOOD
NUTRITION SERVICES AT SAN LUIS
COASTAL K. TWELVE DISTRICT ON
THE BEAUTIFUL CENTRAL COAST OF
CALIFORNIA WITH FIFTEEN SCHOOL
SITE SEVENTY SIX HUNDRED
STUDENTS. AND JUST UNDER 40%
FREE AND REDUCED SINCE THE
PANDEMIC AND LAUNCH OF UNIVERSAL
FREE MEALS IN CALIFORNIA WE'VE
SEEN A 52% INCREASE IN OUR DAILY
MEAL PARTICIPATION. TOGETHER MY
TEAMSTERS OVER TWELVE THOUSAND
MEALS EACH DAY ACROSS BREAKFAST
LUNCH AND SUPPER PROGRAMS. THIS
INCREASE REVENUE FROM UNIVERSAL
FREE MEALS HAS NOT ONLY RESULTED
IN ADDITIONAL FUNDING FOR HIGH
QUALITY LOCALLY SOURCED FOODS
BUT ALSO NEW EQUIPMENT AND THE
OPPORTUNITY TO HIRE AND TRAIN
MORE STUFF. THE FORMULA IS
SIMPLE GOOD FOOD PLUS FREE FOOD
EQUALS AN INCREASE BILL
PARTICIPATION AND A BETTER
SCHOOL MEAL PROGRAM PLUS HAPPY
KIDS. THIS IMPORTANT LEGISLATION
BEFORE YOU TODAY AIMS TO ALIGN
THE NUTRITIONAL STANDARDS OF
SCHOOL MEALS WITH WHAT IS
MEDICALLY PROVEN TO BE THE BEST
FOR CHILDREN'S LEARNING WELLNESS
AND LONG TERM QUALITY OF LIFE.
ONE THING WE KNOW FOR SURE IS
THAT HUNGRY KIDS CAN'T LEARN BUT
EQUALLY IMPORTANT IS THE QUALITY
OF THOSE MEALS. ACCESS TO DAILY
CONSISTENT NUTRITIOUS FOOD IT'S
CRITICAL TO SUPPORT COGNITIVE
DEVELOPMENT AND MENTAL ACUITY.
ESPECIALLY WHEN WE KNOW THAT FOR
MANY KIDS SCHOOL IS WHERE THEY
GET THEIR PRIMARY SOURCE OF FOOD
EVERY DAY WHY WOULDN'T WE DO
EVERYTHING WITHIN OUR POWER TO
ENSURE THOSE MEALS ARE
DELICIOUS. HEALTHY AND DESIRED
BY OUR STUDENTS. THE PROPOSED
CHANGES IN THIS BILL MAY SEEM
OVERWHELMING AT FIRST IN FACT WE
ALL FELT THE SAME TREPIDATION
AND UNCERTAINTY WITH THE HEALTHY
HUNGER FREE KIDS ACTIVE TWENTY
TEN. BUT ALL ROSE TO THE
CHALLENGE. NOT ONLY WAS IT THE
RIGHT THING TO DO BACK THEN IT
IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO NOW. SB
THREE FORTY EIGHT IS THE
OPPORTUNITY TO SUPPORT SCHOOLS
IN ADVANCING OUR SHARED GOAL OF
TRULY NOURISHING ALL CALIFORNIA
KIDS. INTENTIONALLY SHIFTING OUR
PROCUREMENT AND BUILDING
RELATIONSHIPS WITH LOCAL GROWERS
TO SOURCE FRESH INGREDIENTS TO
CREATE DELICIOUS MEALS TAKES
TIME. THAT IS POSSIBLE WE WORK
WITH THE LOCAL BAKERY TO CREATE
A DELICIOUS LOW SUGAR CHOCOLATE
MUFFIN. THAT KIDS LOVE AND MEET
OUR NUTRITIONAL STANDARDS WHICH
REMOVES FIFTEEN POUNDS OF ADDED
SUGAR FROM OUR STUDENTS DIET
ANNUALLY. TURN AROUND. I
RESPECTFULLY URGE THE ASSEMBLY
EDUCATION COMMITTEE TO SUPPORT
SB THREE FORTY EIGHT. THIS NOT
ONLY BUILDS UPON WHAT WE STARTED
WITH SCHOOL MEALS FOR ALL BUT
ALSO TAKES US TO WHERE WE ARE
GOING TO ENSURE THE BEST CHANCE
FOR CHILDREN THREE TO SIX THAT'S
NOT BEING. THANK YOU FOR THE
OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE FEEDBACK
ON THIS CRITICAL MATTER. THANK
YOU. GOOD AFTERNOON CHAIR- CG.
AND HONORABLE MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE. I'M DOCTOR LENA ALSO
RAP AND I WORK IN A SCHOOL BASED
HEALTH CLINIC NEAR DOWNTOWN LOS
ANGELES. BEHIND A HIGH SCHOOL IN
PROPERTY SHARED BY L. A. U. S.
T. I'VE BEEN IN PRACTICE FOR
MORE THAN THIRTY YEARS AND I'VE
SEEN AN ALARMING INCREASE IN
OBESITY AND TYPE TWO DIABETES
AMONG CHILDREN. AND YOUTH. I
ALSO WORK WITH THE STUDENT
ADVISORY BOARD AT BELMONT HIGH
SCHOOL. GIVING PRESENTATIONS ON
DIABETES AND OBESITY AND THEY IN
TURN USE SOCIAL MEDIA TO PROMOTE
HEALTH EDUCATION AMONG THEIR
PEERS. I AM PLEASED TO BE HERE
TODAY AS I'VE SEEN FIRSTHAND THE
IMPACT OF POOR NUTRITION AND
FOOD AND SECURITY. HAS ON OUR
CHILDREN AND COMMUNITY.
CURRENTLY ONE THIRD OF CHILDREN
ARE NOT ONLY AT AN UNHEALTHY
WEIGHT. BUT ARE ALSO AT
INCREASED RISK OF DEVELOPING
HEART DISEASE AND TYPE TWO
DIABETES. YOU NOW HAVE HEALTH
CONDITIONS PREVIOUSLY ONLY
ASSOCIATED WITH ADULTS LIKE HIGH
BLOOD PRESSURE AND HIGH
CHOLESTEROL. A CONTRIBUTING
FACTOR IS POOR NUTRITION AND
DIET I'VE WITNESSED CASES OF
TYPE TWO BY DIABETES AND PRE
DIABETES IN YOUTH. WHICH WAS
UNHEARD OF WHILE PRACTICING IN
MY EARLIER YEARS I'VE SEEN CASES
OF TYPE TWO DIABETES IN CHILDREN
AS YOUNG AS TWELVE YEARS OLD
WHICH REALLY WAS EYE OPENING.
THE CHILD WAS NOT EMOTIONALLY
EQUIPPED TO HANDLE. A OR
COMPREHEND THE SCOPE OF THE
HEALTH CONDITION AND BESIDES THE
NORMAL PRE ADOLESCENT ISSUES SHE
HAD TO DEAL WITH THIS WAS ONE
MORE THING IT. AND TOOK AN
EMOTIONAL TOLL ON BOTH I ALSO
WITNESSED THIS WHEN I HAD A
THREE YEAR OLD PATIENT WITH HIGH
BLOOD PRESSURE. CHILDREN CONSUME
FAR TOO MUCH SODIUM AND ADDED
SUGARS AND TOO FEW FRUITS AND
VEGETABLES FOR EXAMPLE FOR
EXAMPLE ONLY 35% OF CHILDREN
MEET THE DIETARY GUIDELINES FOR
AMERICANS ADDED SUGAR
RECOMMENDATION. GIVEN THAT MANY
KIDS GET MOST OF THEIR MEALS AT
SCHOOL WE NEED TO ENSURE THEY
ARE NUTRITIOUS. I FLEW UP FROM
LOS ANGELES TO SUPPORT THIS BILL
BECAUSE ESTABLISHING SCHOOL MEAL
STANDARDS WOULD PROMOTE A
POSITIVE FOOD ENVIRONMENT AND
ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION FOR A
LIFETIME OF HEALTHY BEHAVIORS. I
URGE YOU TO SUPPORT SB THREE
FORTY EIGHT A CRITICAL BILL TO
ADDRESS THIS HEALTH CRISIS
INVEST IN THE HEALTH OF OUR
FUTURE AND PROMOTE NUTRITION AT
A YOUNG AGE. THANK YOU FOR

TESTIFY TODAY. THANK YOU. L.

AFTERNOON MARTHA ALBERTSON LA
UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT IN
SUPPORT. ALL RIGHT. WITNESSES IN
OPPOSITION TO THE BILL. PLEASE
COME FORWARD. SEEING NONE I
PUBLIC COMMENTS IN OPPOSITION TO
THE BILL. SEEING NONE IN THE
BACK TO THE COMMITTEE ANY
COMMENTS QUESTIONS FROM THE
COMMITTEE MS QUIRK-SILVA. I'M
BEING A LITTLE TALKIE TODAY BUT
IT BRINGS BACK MY- TEACHING
PROFESSION AS- AS MOST TEACHERS
IN IN THE SCHOOL I TAUGHT IN
WHICH WAS TITLED ONE IN. FULLER
TENN MANY MANY OF OUR STUDENTS
DID HAVE FREE AND REDUCED LUNCH
AND- ONE DAY I SERIOUSLY WANT BY
THE BREAKFAST TABLE ON MY WAY TO
CLASS AND I SAW THAT THE STUDENT
WAS EATING FRUIT LOOPS WITH THE
CHOCOLATE MILK POURED IN TO THE
FRUIT LOOPS AND HRO. HAHA AND
THIS IS LIKE TEN YEARS AGO OR
LONGER MAYBE EVEN LONGER AND IT
REALLY COMPELLED ME TO STARTED
AN INITIATIVE WITHIN OUR SCHOOL
WHICH WAS ALL ABOUT AND WE HAD
WORKED WITH A LOCAL HOSPITAL ON-
A WHITE MALE. IN TAKING AWAY THE
CHOCOLATE MILK THAT WAS VERY
CONTROVERSY OLD AT THAT TIME.
AND THEN OF COURSE THE LOCAL
DOCTORS PUT A CLINIC INTO OUR
SCHOOL NEIGHBORHOOD RIGHT BEHIND
THE SCHOOL. AND THE FIRST THING
THAT THE DOCTOR DID WAS COME TO
THE STAFF AND SHOW US THE SIGNS
OF EARLY NOT ONLY- DIABETES BUT
OBESITY AS IT WAS. MAINLY LATINO
SCHOOL AND EXACTLY THE
CONDITIONS WE SHOULD BE LOOKING
FOR AND OF COURSE. WE MANY OF US
DID NOT KNOW THAT SO THE SIGNS
ON THEIR ARM BEHIND THEIR NECK
AND A LOT OF IT HAD TO DO WITH.
THE JUICES THOSE TYPE OF THINGS
THAT THEY WERE ACTUALLY GETTING
FROM SCHOOL SO WHEN I LOOK AT
THIS ANALYSIS ON PAGE FOUR- JUST
NOTING THAT- YES THERE WILL BE
CHOICES OF MILK BUT NOT
NECESSARILY CHOCOLATE MILK. AND
I HEARD MANY TIMES WILL THE KIDS
WON'T DRINK YET WELL THE KIDS
WON'T EAT THE VEGETABLES AND
THAT IS TRUE IN ANY OF US WHO'VE
WORKED ON CAMPUS. KNOW THAT BUT
THEY WON'T IF THERE'S OTHER
CHOICES SO IF YOU PUT A BROWNIE
OR CHURRO AND THEN A PATH OF
CARROTS OR APPLES. THAT OF
COURSE MANY OF A MOMENT BUT IF
YOU ONLY PUT THE WATER OR THE
MILK AND CREAM THE CARE IT'S AND
THEN SOME TYPE OF MAIN MAIL.
IT'S AMAZING HOW QUICKLY THEY
WILL ADAPT BUT IT'S THE CHOICES
THE OTHER THING IS THAT
CALIFORNIA IS RICH IN
AGRICULTURE AND RICH IN FRUITS
AND VEGETABLES AND NUTS AND WHY
NO WE CAN'T HAVE CERTAIN NUTS ON
CAMPUSES. BUT SO MANY GREAT
CHOICES AND SO MANY GREAT MEALS-
AND GIVING THEM CHOICES WHETHER
IT'S SALAD BARS I DID A BILL A
HANDFUL YEARS AGO TO ENCOURAGE
SCHOOL DISTRICTS TO GO BACK TO
ACTUALLY COOKING BECAUSE IF YOU
REMEMBER. WE TOOK OUT ALL OUR
COOKING EQUIPMENT BECAUSE WE
BOUGHT SO MUCH PROCESSED FOOD
AND NOW THERE IS SOME TRENDS NOT
ENOUGH TO GO BACK TO THAT AND
THERE'S FEDERAL GRANTS SO. I OF
COURSE FULLY SUPPORT THIS BUT I
DO KNOW THAT. KIDS AND YOUNG
ADULTS WILL MOVE TOWARDS
HEALTHIER FOODS IF WE- TAKE SOME
OF THE OTHER UNHEALTHY CHOICES
AWAY. THANK YOU FOR BRINGING
THIS BILL FORWARD AND I'M OF THE
BILL. THANK YOU. MISTER OVER. MY
COLLEAGUE FROM FULLER TENNIS NOT
TALKING AS MUCH AS ME SO-
PROBABLY I'M TAKING THE CAKE ON
THIS THIS HEARING BUT- I JUST
WANNA THANK YOU SENATOR FOR YOUR
WORK ON THIS IMPORTANT ISSUE. AS
AN ISSUE IT'S REALLY CLOSE TO MY
HEART I PARTICULARLY APPRECIATE-
THE PROVISIONS ON THAT ALLOWING
FOR MORE TIME I THINK THAT IS
PROBABLY THE- COMPLAINT I GET
MOST FOR MY KIDS- THEY JUST
DON'T HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO EAT
THEIR LUNCH SO- THAT IS I THINK
A VERY MEANINGFUL- CHANGE- AND I
ALSO APPRECIATE YOU TAKING THE
AMENDMENTS TO ADDRESS SOME OF
THE CHARTER SCHOOLS CONCERNS-
AND IF YOU WOULD HAVE ME WOULD
LOVE TO BE A CO AUTHOR. THANKS
THANK YOU VISSCHER DOLLAR. THANK
YOU- THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS
FORWARD ACTUALLY- OUR OLDEST SON
WHEN HE WAS IN KINDERGARTEN- I
STARTED A BREAKFAST BILL. AND HE
WAS EATING BREAKFAST BEFORE HE
LEFT. BUT HE WENT BY THE
CAFETERIA WITH THE CINNAMON
ROLLS AND I REALLY THOUGHT THEY
WERE THE SIDES OF HIS HEAD- AND
I WAS COVERING THE CHASE STALLEY
. HAVING A CINNAMON ROLL IN THE
MORNING AS HE THE JUST. PICKED
ONE UP EVERYDAY AFTER HE'D
ALREADY HAD BREAKFAST. SO AND I
WAS HORRIFIED AS PARENTS. AND
THEN I WENT TO SCHOOL AND FOUND
OUT THAT WE WERE SERVING THESE
GIANT CINNAMON ROLLS TWO. YOU
KNOW WE LITTLE BOYS AT FIVE
YEARS OLD AND THEN EXPECTING
THEM TO SIT THROUGH AND SIT.
CRISS CROSS APPLESAUCE IN A
CIRCLE. I THIS IS VERY OF.
BECAUSE A OF YOU NEED TO IS
MAJOR. YOU KNOW IT'S FOR THE
VERY. WHAT WHAT THEY NEED TO GO
THROUGH THAT THEY NEED FOR THEIR
BRAINS AND- I JUST I REALLY
APPRECIATE THIS AND I'M I'M
ANXIOUS TO SEE WHAT HOW IT MOVES
FORWARD AND- WHAT WE CAN DO AND
I AGREE AGRICULTURE IS THAT. YOU
KNOW WORK HAVE EVERYTHING WE CAN
IMAGINE. HERE IN CALIFORNIA AND
TO BE ABLE TO PARTNER LOCALLY
WITH OUR FOOD CO OPS OR WHATEVER
WE NEED TO DO ON FEDERAL LEVELS
AS WELL. SO THANK YOU SO MUCH
FOR BRING THE SUPPORT AND I'LL
SECOND THE MOTION. THANK YOU
MOTIONS AND MADE AND SECONDED TO
SEEING NO FURTHER COMMENTS.
CENTER THANK YOU FOR BRINGING
THIS IMPORTANT MEASURE FORWARD
I- YOU KNOW WELL THAT WE WANT TO
SHARE WITH YOU BY MY WIFE IS
FROM JAPAN AND- YOU KNOW WITH
THEY THEY HAVE SOME OF THE- MOST
AMAZING HEALTHY MEALS. SERVED
IN. SCHOOLS IN JAPAN AND- YOU
KNOW. AS WE OUR REYES HAVE BEEN
RAISING OUR- OUR DAUGHTER- HERE
IN KENT CALIFORNIA PUBLIC SCHOOL
IN CALIFORNIA. I YOU KNOW SHE-
WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED ALWAYS
COMPLAINING ABOUT ALL THE
UNHEALTHY FOOD BEING SERVED IN
IN IN SCHOOLS- I AM. JUST
CURIOUS IS SO DOES THIS MEAN
LIKE I KNOW THAT MY DAUGHTER WAS
ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT HOW ALL THE
KIDS WHO GO FOR THE PIZZA AND
NOT EAT APPLES. BUT I MEAN DOES
THIS MEAN THAT PIECE WAS WILL
NOT BE SERVED IN APPLE'S WILL
ONLY BE THAT. THE CHOICE. NO
NEVER WOULD. THERE'S MOST PIZZA
NOT ALL SOME PIZZA AND A DOES
HAVE ADDED SUGAR BELIEVE IT OR
NOT BUT IT THERE ARE MANY PIECES
THAT DO NOT HAVE ADDED SUGAR.
AND SALT LEVELS ON PIZZA CAN
OBVIOUSLY- YOU KNOW. THE WE HAVE
A LOT OF CONTROL OVER THAT. SO
IT DOESN'T ELIMINATE PIZZA AT
ALL AND IT DOESN'T FORCING THE
CHILD TO EAT THE APPLE. BUT IT
ALSO PRETTY CLEAR FIGHT IT DOES
NOT ELIMINATE CHOCOLATE MILK
THERE ARE CHOCOLATE MILKS OUT
THERE WITH SEVEN GRAMS OF SUGAR.
AND THAT MORE THAN MEETS THE
GUIDELINES YOU COULD HAVE A
CHOCOLATE MILK AND A MUFFIN LIKE
LOUIS COASTAL PROVIDES. AND
STILL MEET THE GUIDELINES. OF
THERE ARE SOME CHOCOLATE MILK SO
UNFORTUNATELY THERE UP TO TWENTY
GRAMS OF SUGAR AND SCHOOL
DISTRICTS WOULD HAVE TO BE VERY
CAREFUL ABOUT THOSE- OR OR IF
THEY DECIDE ON DAY EXT DAY TO
HAVE THAT. OUT TO LUNCH THEN
THEY MIGHT NOT HAVE ANOTHER REAL
HIGH SUGAR ITEMS. SO IT DOESN'T
ELIMINATE SUGAR. IT DOESN'T
ELIMINATE CHOCOLATE MILK IT JUST
MAKE SURE THAT THE MEALS ON ANY
GIVEN DAY MEET. THE ACADEMY OF
PEDIATRIC GUIDELINES. OKAY
WONDERFUL I WANTED TO- GIVE
SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR STAFF
CHELSEA KELLY WORKED HARD ON ON
THIS BILL. AND SPECIFICALLY SHE-

NINETY FOUR WOULD PROHIBIT
SCHOOL DISTRICT GOVERNING BOARDS
FROM TERMINATING A DISTRICT
SUPERINTENDENT OR ASSISTANT
SUPERINTENDENT WITHOUT BECAUSE
UNTIL IT UNTIL AT LEAST THIRTY
DAYS AFTER A GENERAL ELECTION.
THIS COOLING OFF PERIOD
FOLLOWING ELECTION IS IMPORTANT
TO ALLOW NEW BOARD MEMBERS
BECOME ACCLIMATED AND WELL
INFORMED OF THEIR BY BETTER
EQUIPPING A GOVERNING BOARD TO
RESPONSIBLY DELIBERATE ACT UPON
SIGNIFICANT PERSONNEL ACTIONS
UNDER EXISTING CALIFORNIA LAW.
SCHOOL DISTRICT GOVERNING BOARDS
REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A SEVENTY
TWO HOUR NOTICE PRIOR TO
CONVENING ANY REGULAR MEETING OF
THE BOARD BUT ONLY A TWENTY FOUR
HOUR NOTICE BEFORE CONVENING A
SPECIAL MEETING OF THE BOARD
WITH EVEN LESS TIME REQUIRED FOR
THE NOTICING. OF AN EMERGENCY
MEETING CURRENT LAW DOES NOT
PRESCRIBE THE ACTIONS WHICH MAY
OR MAY NOT BE TAKEN AT SPECIAL
OR MERCY ME TO SCHOOL DISTRICT
GOVERNING BOARDS ABSENT
EXTENUATING CIRCUMSTANCES
CHANGING CHANGES IN SENIOR
SCHOOL LEADERSHIP. ARE ALWAYS
BEST MADE FOLLOWING FOR
CONSIDERATION AT THROUGH
DISCUSSION BY ALL AFFECTED
PARTIES THE CURRENT LACK OF
REQUIRED ADVANCE NOTICE. RUNS
DIRECTLY COUNTER TO THAT
PRINCIPLE I S. AS BEEN
ILLUSTRATED RECENTLY BY MULTIPLE
EVENTS IN DISTRICTS. ACROSS THE
STATE FOR THOSE OF US WHO SERVED
IN PUBLIC OFFICE- IT'S FAIRLY
CLEAR THAT NEWLY ELECTED MEMBERS
OF THE GOVERNING BODY GENERALLY
NEED SOME TIME TO BECOME FULLY
CONVERSANT. IN THE OFTEN COMPLEX
INNER WORKINGS OF GOVERNANCE IT
GIVEN THE COMPLEXITY OF
CALIFORNIA EDUCATION THIS IS
ESPECIALLY TRUE. FOR NEWLY
ELECTED MEMBERS OF SCHOOL
BOARDS. WHO NO MATTER THEIR
BACKGROUND FACES SUBSTANTIAL
LEARNING CURVE UPON ASSUMING.
THEIR NEW RESPONSIBILITIES UNDER
ITS COMMONSENSE PROVISIONS SB.
FOUR NINETY FOUR WILL ENSURE
GREATER CHANCE SEE AN ACCOUNT OF

CALIFORNIA TEACHERS. ASSOCIATION
I AM RESPECTFULLY ASK YOUR UNCLE
. GOOD AFTERNOON MISTER CHAMBERS
THE JOHNS OF THE ASSOCIATION OF
CALIFORNIA SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS
PLEASE ANY SPONSORS OF THIS
MEASURE APPRECIATE CENTER
NEWMAN'S LEADERSHIP ON THE
ISSUE. ALSO APPRECIATE THE WORK
OF THE COMMITTEE STAFF AND TO
ADDRESS ANY POSSIBLE CONCERNS
AND GABI FOUND A GOOD SOLUTION
TO KEEP THIS. IMPORTANT ISSUE
MOVING FORWARD. AND FOR US THIS
IS REALLY FOR STUDENTS IT'S FOR
PARENTS. IT'S FOR TEACHERS IT'S
FOR OTHER ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF
SCHOOL LEADERSHIP PLAYS A KEY
ROLE IN ATTRACTING RETAINING
HIGH QUALITY EDUCATORS AND
PROVIDING. OUR STUDENTS THE
TOOLS THEY NEED TO BECOME CAREER
COLLEGE READY. SO THIS ISSUE
CAME TO OUR ATTENTION LAST YEAR
AXEL'S ALERTED TO INCIDENTS
ABRUPT DISMISSALS WITH ONLY
TWENTY FOUR HOUR NOTICE
SOMETIMES OVER A HOLIDAY WEEKEND
SOMETIMES DURING A HOLIDAY
BREAK. UP OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER A
NEW BOARD WAS SEATED. I JUST
CAME THROUGH REPORTS FROM A
MEMBERSHIP IN CONCERNS ABOUT
STABILITY AND ALSO OF COURSE THE
MEDIA. THIS EMERGING OR TACTIC
IS SHOWING UP IN MANY DIFFERENT
PARTS OF OUR STATE NOT JUST- IN
THE SENATORS DISTRICT. AMBUR
CONCERNED BECAUSE WE FEEL THIS
SEVERELY LIMITS OPPORTUNITIES
FOR PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT. FOR THE
LARGER SCHOOLS COMMUNITY AND
THESE ARE DECISIONS THAT HAVE
REAL LASTING CONSEQUENCES. IT
CAN ALSO INCREASE FEAR. FURTHER
DESTABILIZE THE DISTRICT AT A
TIME IN SCHOOLS AS WE HEARD ARE
THE FRONTLINE OF MANY HIGHLY
POLITICIZED ISSUES. AND WE THINK
THIS IS A REASONABLE MEASURE HI.
I HAVE. A SMALL CHANGE THAT WILL
LIKELY NOT HAVE TO BE PUT INTO
EFFECT. PROBABLY BUT WILL BE
CRITICALLY IMPORTANT TO CREATE A
LITTLE MORE STABILITY IN THOSE
RARE SITUATIONS AND FOR THOSE
REASONS WE RESPECT REQUEST DRIVE
OUT THANK YOU. MISTER CHAIRMAN
BIRDS IN H. OUT THE CALIFORNIA
TEACHERS ASSOCIATION- SPEAKING
IN SUPPORT OF SB FOUR X. FOUR
NINE FOUR. A SCHOOL SCHOOL
BOARDS MUST CONDUCT THEIR
BUSINESSES OPEN OPENLY AND- NOT
DOING SO IS A THREAT TO
DEMOCRACY PUBLIC EDUCATION AND
PUBLIC EMPLOYEES- AS ALLUDED TO-
BY THE AUTHOR AND- I MISS
JOHNSON- THE DECISION TO
TERMINATE- VERY SUPERINTENDENTS
ACROSS THE STATE AND IN HIS
DISTRICT. ARM HAS CREATED A
CHILLING EFFECT FOR TEACHERS A
SUPERINTENDENT SET THE TONE AND
OVERSEES DAY TO DAY BUSINESS OF
THE SCHOOL. BARRING THE
SUPERINTENDENT IS EXTREMELY
DESTRUCTIVE TO THE SCHOOL AND
DIRECTLY IMPACTS EDUCATOR AND
STUDENTS- THE FIRING AND- THE
SENATORS DISTRICT I CREATED A
CIVIL SITUATION AND- WHICH THERE
WAS NO ACCOUNTABILITY. AND
INSTABILITY IN ANSWERED
UNCERTAINTY BUT WAS BROUGHT THE
DISTRICT LATE LEGACY EDUCATORS
EDUCATORS I GREW UP- AND
GRADUATED FROM THE SCHOOL
APPARENTLY TEACHING AT EDUCATORS
THAT HAVE CHILDREN IN THE SCHOOL
DISTRICT EDUCATORS THAT WANT TO
STAY AND GIVE BACK TO THEIR
COMMUNITY. ARE LEAVING IN DROVES
TO FIND MORE STABLE EMPLOYMENT
OPPORTUNITIES- WITH AN EDUCATOR
SHORTAGE THERE GLADLY- THEY KNOW
THAT THEY THERE ARE SAFE FOR
SCHOOL DISTRICT FIFTY CHEN AND I
WILL GLADLY RECEIVE THEM. ONE
EDUCATOR TOLD ME I JUST NEED
SOMEONE IN CHARGE TO HOLD ON THE
FOR THAT PERSON'S WHICH SCHOOL
DISTRICTS FOR THE EASE OF MIND
KNOW THAT THEIR WORK WILL BE
IMPACTED AND THAT THEY CAN SEE
AND HEAR WHAT THEY SAY AND-
TEACH. WHAT BECAUSE OF
TELEVISION TO THEM AND THEIR
CHILDREN. EDUCATORS IN
NEIGHBORING DISTRICTS IN ORANGE
COUNTY AND SURROUNDING- COUNTIES
ARE WATCHING HANDS AROUND
WONDERING IF THE SAME WILL
HAPPEN IN THEIR DISTRICTS. AND
WONDERING IF THEIR JOBS WILL
ALSO BE IMPACTED. THIS ALL
FORCING IMPACTS THE STUDENTS WHO
LOSE QUALITY EDUCATORS FROM THE
COMMUNITY AND CAUSE DISRUPTION
AND EDUCATOR. EDUCATION I'M SB
FIVE FOUR NINE FOUR IS A
CRITICAL BILL THAT ENSURES
STABILITY FOR EDUCATORS AND
STUDENTS. AND FOR THOSE REASONS
YOU TAKE OR GET YOUR AYE. AYE

REASONABLE CHANGE I JUST WANTED
TO SAY THANK YOU FOR WORKING
WITH C. S. B. ON THIS I DID
SHARE THEIR CONCERNS WITH THE
BILL- YOU KNOW AS MENTIONED BY
ONE OF THE PROPONENTS- IT IS
INCREDIBLY DISRUPTIVE TO FIRE
SUPERINTENDENT SOMETIMES. THAT
DESTRUCTION IS NECESSARY
SOMETIMES IT'S NECESSARY TO MOVE
ON AND BOARDS NEED TO BE ABLE TO
DO THAT- AND HAVE THE ****. TO
DO THAT- BUT I ALSO THINK YOU
KNOW- GIVEN THE NARROW. FOCUS OF
YOUR BILL I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT
THAT BOARDS ALSO HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE THAT
DISCUSSION. AND GET TO KNOW
THEIR SUPERINTENDENT BEFORE
MAKING THAT DECISION AND SO-
I'LL BE SUPPORTING THE BILL
TODAY THANK YOU. THANK YOU MR
GARCIA. MOTIONS MADE. SECOND BY

IMPORTANT DECISIONS AT A SCHOOL
BOARD MAKES IT IS THE- THE
HIRING. AND THE FIRING OF THE
SUPERINTENDENT I AS THE CHIEF
EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF A BUT OF A
SCHOOL DISTRICT AND SO. YOU KNOW
I. EIGHT TO. YOU WORKING WITH
THE COMMITTEE TO NOT ONLY

AND AT NO TIME. WOULD WE PRESUME
TO INTERFERE WITH THE
PREROGATIVES OF A BOARD AND YOU
KNOW MAJORITY RULE MATTERS LOCAL
CONTROL MATTERS. BUT WHETHER YOU
TERMINATE SHE LEADERSHIP- IT IS
IMPORTANT BUT SO IS HOW- AND
WHAT WE'VE SEEN RECENTLY IS
THOSE CHANGE SHOULD BE DONE IN

INSTABILITY THAT HAS ADVERSE
EFFECTS AND EVERYBODY WHO IS

HYDROCHLORIDE TO AN OVERDOSE
VICTIM INCREASING THEIR CHANCES
OF SURVIVAL. ACTION CAN BE TAKEN

THANKING YOUR COMMITTEE STAFFER
WORKING SO CLOSELY WITH MY TEAM.
AND TO YOU CHAIR PERSONALLY FOR
SITTING DOWN WITH ME AND TALKING
ABOUT THIS BILL. I WILL BE
ACCEPTING TWO OF THE COMMITTEES
AMENDMENTS WHICH ARE AS FOLLOWS
TO HELP ADDRESS CHRONIC
ABSENTEEISM CONCERNS WE ARE.
AMENDING THE BILL TO LIMIT THE
AMOUNT OF TIME A STUDENT CAN
SEEK ADDITIONAL GRIEF SERVICES
TO A MAXIMUM OF THREE DAYS
UNLESS THE SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR
GRANTS ADDITIONAL TIME AT THEIR
DISCRETION. AND WE ARE ALSO
REMOVING SOME UNCLEAR LANGUAGE
REGARDING THE CONDITIONS FOR
STUDENTS TO ACCESS BRIEF SUPPORT
AROUND THAT THE TYPE OF DEATH
BUT THE PERSON. I UNFORTUNATELY
EXPERIENCES. ALONG WITH THESE
TWO PROVISIONS SB THREE FIFTY
INCREASES THE AMOUNT OF DAYS
THAT A STUDENT CAN BE EXCUSED
FROM SCHOOL FOLLOWING THE DEATH
OF A LOVED ONE THAT LIVES IN
THEIR HOME FOR THE PURPOSES OF A
FUNERAL. AND TO GRIEVE. SOME OF
YOU MAY REMEMBER THAT ASSEMBLY
MEMBER LOW CARRIED A SIMILAR
BILL TO THIS IN THE LAST COUPLE
OF YEARS FOR PEOPLE AT WORK-
THAT THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO TAKE
FIVE DAYS OFF OF WORK FOR
FUNERALS AND THINGS FOR CLOSE
RELATIVES AND AN EXTENDED
FAMILY. THIS IS ACTUALLY JUST
REFLECT FOR CLOSE FAMILY MEMBERS
THAT LIVE IN YOUR HOME. AND THIS
ADDRESSES THE NEEDS OF STUDENTS
IN CALIFORNIA. STUDENTS WHO
EXPERIENCED THE DEATH OF A LOVED
ONE RIGHT NOW ARE EXCUSE FOR ONE
DAY FROM SCHOOL FOR A FUNERAL IF
AT THE FUNERAL IS IN THE STATE
AND- THREE DAYS IF THEY HAVE TO
TRAVEL OUT OF STATE. I WROTE
THIS BILL PARTIALLY ON PERSONAL
EXPERIENCE FROM SOME OF MY
NEIGHBORS. WHO ARE TWIN EIGHTH
GRADERS. WHOSE MOM DIED IN THE
MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT AND
EXPECTEDLY FROM AN ASTHMA
ATTACK. AND OTHER GET ONE DAY
OFF OF SCHOOL TO GO TO HER
FUNERAL. BUT THE REST OF THE
WEEK THEY HAD TO DEAL WITH
RELATIVES COMING AND GOING AND
FIGURING OUT. WHAT LIFE WOULD
LOOK LIKE WITHOUT A MOM. AND SO
IT SEEMS TO ME THAT AT A MINIMUM
WE COULD GIVE THEM FIVE DAYS TO
SORT THROUGH AT. A FUNERAL IN
PROBABLY THE WORST WEEK OF THEIR
LIVES ONE OUT OF FIVE CHILDREN
IN THE UNITED STATES ARE
GRIEVING THE DEATH OF SOMEONE
CLOSE TO THEM. AND IT'S JUST
SIMPLY NOT ENOUGH TO HEAL AND-
LOOK NO AMOUNT OF TIME. IS GOING
TO HEAL THE WOUNDS. OR FILL THE
HOLE CREATED BY THE LOSS OF A
CLOSE FAMILY MEMBER. BUT WHAT WE
WOULD LIKE TO DO IS GIVE
STUDENTS THE APPROPRIATE AMOUNT
OF MENTAL HEALTH TIME TO AT
LEAST SEEK SOME SERVICES AND
HELP IN. SPEAK TO COUNSELORS THE
ADDITIONS THAT YOUR TEAM HAS
MADE TO THIS BILL ALSO I THINK
MAKE IT BETTER. AND- I AM VERY
GRATEFUL. OUR GOAL HERE IS TO GO
BACK IN TIME WITH YOUNG PEOPLE.
AT THE MOMENT THAT THEY
EXPERIENCE THE WORST TRAUMA THAT
MAY LATER TURN INTO SOMETHING
LIKE. DRUG USE OR SUICIDAL
THOUGHTS OR MENTAL HEALTH
PROBLEMS. AND INSTEAD GIVE THEM
THE TIME AND SUPPORT THEY NEED
TO BE. TO WORK THROUGH. OF THESE
VERY DIFFICULT PROBLEMS. AND NOT
ON TOP OF THAT HAVE TO DEAL WITH
TRUANCY ISSUES. WITH ME TODAY IS

HERE TO ASK FOR YOUR SUPPORT
WITH PASSING SB THREE FIFTY THE
STUDENT SUPPORT FOR MENTAL
HEALTH AND RECONNECT. WHEN MY
DAD PASSED AWAY I DO NOT WANT TO
GO TO SCHOOL HAD SO MANY
FEELINGS GOING ON I JUST NEED
THE TIME TO BE WITH MY FAMILY. I
KNOW THAT IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOT
MISS SCHOOL I HAVE BEEN GETTING
PERFECT ATTENDANCE AWARD SINCE I
WAS IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. BUT
THIS TIME IT WAS DIFFERENT. AT
THE FLIGHT- HIRED A TEN MY
FATHER'S FUNERAL WHICH WOULD
MAKE ME MISS MORE THAN THREE
DAYS OF SCHOOL. WHEN MY MOTHER
TOLD ME MY FATHER PASSED AWAY I
FELT REALLY EMOTIONAL AND SAT. I
HAD A LOT OF NEW FEELINGS I JUST
NEEDED SOME SPACE TO THINK AND
DEAL WITH MY EMOTIONS. I ALREADY
MISSED THREE DAYS OF SCHOOL FOR
STUDENTS LIKE ME WHOSE GRADES
AND ATTENDANCE ARE SUPER
IMPORTANT IT'S IT WAS HARD.
KNOWING THAT MORE ABSENCES WOULD
BE EXCUSED OR NOT BE EXCUSE AND
I COULD BE LABOR TRACK. EVEN
THOUGH IT WAS NOT MY FAULT THAT
I HAD TO MISS SCHOOL AND I WAS
IN OHIO. SB THREE FIFTY WOULD
ALLOW STUDENTS TO HAVE UP TO
FIVE DAYS OF EXCUSE ABSENCES TO
ATTEND FUNERALS AND TO DEAL WITH
HER MENTAL HEALTH. I ASK YOU
PLEASE FOR SB THREE FIFTY ON MY
BEHALF. AND FOR MY FAMILY AND
ALL THE STUDENTS IN CALIFORNIA.
WE WANT TO TAKE THANK THE AUTHOR
FOR CHAMPIONING THIS ISSUES
AFTER THE COVERED PAN TO MAKE IT
BECAME EVEN MORE IMPORTANT FOR
US TO. SUPPORT THE MENTAL HEALTH
OF OUR STUDENTS AND OFFER
ADEQUATE RESOURCES. THE STATE
LAW ALREADY ENSURES THAT PARENTS
TEACHERS AND SCHOOL STAFF
MEMBERS ARE ABLE TO TAKE THE
TIME OFF WITHOUT BEING IMPACTED.
ON A REALLY IMPACTED ON THEIR
EMPLOYMENT. IT IS ONLY RIGHT
THAT THE STATE RECOGNIZE THE
IMPACT OF PRE FUND STUDENTS. WE
DO NOT WANT HEALING TO BECOME

MEMBERS AND THANK YOU FOR THE
MOTION AND SECOND- I'D LIKE TO
BEGIN BY ACCEPTING THE ARE. THE
I THINK THE CA FOR THE OUTLINED
ON PAGE NINE OF THE ANALYSIS- AS
WE KNOW SB THREE NINETY FOUR
WILL REQUIRE THE CALIFORNIA
ENERGY COMMISSION TO COLLABORATE
WITH VARIOUS STATE AGENCIES AND
EDUCATION STAKEHOLDERS TO
DEVELOP A MASTER PLAN FOR
HEALTHY SUSTAINABLE AND CLIMATE
RESILIENT SCHOOLS AS WE KNOW I
STUDENTS. ARE SERVED BY OVER ONE
THOUSAND SCHOOL DISTRICTS THAT
UTILIZE OVER TEN THOUSAND SCHOOL
FACILITIES IN CALIFORNIA
COMPRISING OF ONE HUNDRED TWENTY
FIVE THOUSAND ACRES OF GROUNDS-
BUT WE KNOW THAT THEY PRODUCE
SUBSTANTIAL GHG EMISSIONS AND
CONTRIBUTE TO OTHER
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS. THIS
MASTER PLAN WILL BETTER POSITION
CALIFORNIA SCHOOL DISTRICT TO
TACKLE THE GENERATIONAL
CHALLENGES OF TRANSITIONING TO
CLIMATE RESILIENT FACILITIES
HELP MEET OUR CLIMATE GOALS AND
ULTIMATELY PROTECT OUR STUDENTS
FROM THE EFFECTS OF CLIMATE
CHANGE JUST. FOR TODAY I HAVE
DOCTOR LISA PATEL CLINICAL
ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR AT
PEDIATRICS AT STANFORD AND
TIFFANY MARC. LEGISLATIVE
ADVOCATE WITH THE CALIFORNIA
FEDERATION OF TEACHERS AS WELL
AS JONATHAN KLEIN WITH UNDAUNTED
K. TWELVE FOR TECHNICAL
ASSISTANCE I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR MY VOTE. THANK YOU- THANK
YOU SO MUCH FOR THE OPPORTUNITY
TO TESTIFY MY NAME IS DR LISA
PATEL- I'M AN ENVIRONMENTAL
SCIENTIST MOTHER TO A CHILD AND
SAN FRANCISCO UNIFIED SCHOOL
DISTRICT AS WELL AND I'M HERE IN
SUPPORT OF SB THREE NINETY FOUR
TO SAFEGUARD OUR CHILDREN'S
HEALTH AND A CHANGING CLIMATE.
AS A HOSPITAL BASED PEDIATRICIAN
WHO CARES FOR PREMATURE INFANTS
SIX CHILDREN AND WHILE NEWBORNS.
I HAVE BEEN ON THE FRONT LINES
OF HOW CLIMATE CHANGE IS
AFFECTING OUR CHILDREN'S HEALTH.
AND DOCTORS UNDERSTAND THAT
CLIMATE CHANGE WILL LIKELY BE
THE GREATEST DETERMINANT OF
HEALTH FOR A CHILD BORN TODAY.
OUR SCHOOLS WERE BUILT FOR A
DIFFERENT CENTURY AND IF WE
DON'T ACT NOW TO PREPARE OUR
SCHOOL SYSTEMS IT WILL THREATEN
OUR CHILDREN'S LIFETIME OF
HEALTH AND LEARNING. FOR EXAMPLE
WORSENING HEAT WAVES MAKE
CLASSROOMS ABOUT AIR
CONDITIONING TOO DANGEROUS FOR
KIDS. LAST SEPTEMBER MANY
SCHOOLS IN THE AREA HAD TO CLOSE
EARLY BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T HAVE
H. FAX SYSTEMS TO HANDLE THE
HEAT. IN THE HOSPITAL AND SEE
MORE ATHLETES WITH HEAT STROKE.
THAT CAN RESULT IN KIDNEY DE
IMAGE SEVERE DE HI. AND ON THE
HIGH DAYS OF THE- WE MORE CAN
TURNING UP ASTHMA. AND MORE
EXPECTANT MOTHERS OF PRETERM
LABOR. WE ALSO KNOW THAT HOT
DAYS RESULT IN POOR LEARNING
OUTCOMES WITH BLACK AND HISPANIC
CHILDREN EXPERIENCING A 5% GAP
AND STANDARDIZED TEST SCORES.
COMPARED TO THEIR WHITE
COUNTERPARTS DUE TO HEAT. THE
EPA ESTIMATES THAT HE'D DRIVEN
BY CLIMATE CHANGE WILL RESULT IN
A 7% DECREASE IN ACADEMIC EIGHT
IN YOUR ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT PER
CHILD. AND THIS LOSS TRANSLATES
TO BILLIONS OF DOLLARS LOST
ANNUALLY FROM POOR RATES OF
GRADUATION. POOR PAYING JOBS AND
INABILITY TO PROCURE HEALTH
INSURANCE. WILDFIRE SMOKE ALSO
THREATENS KIDS HEALTH AND
LEARNING. WILDFIRE SMOKE IS TEN
TIMES AS TOXIC AS THE REGULAR
AIR POLLUTION WE BREATHE FROM
BURNING FOSSIL FUELS. AND MANY
OF OUR SCHOOLS ARE NOT EQUIPPED
OR UP TO DATE WITH THAT UPDATED
OR EFFICIENT EIGHT TRACK SYSTEMS
TO KEEP KIDS SAFE. THE EPA
ESTIMATES AN INCREASE OF 11% BY
OUT OF ADVOCATES AS FOR AIR
POLLUTION DRIVEN BY CLIMATE
CHANGE. CHILDREN IN CALIFORNIA
ALREADY MISSED ONE POINT TWO
MILLION DAYS OF SCHOOL FROM
ASTHMA. AND WE PREDICT AN
INCREASE IN BOTH
HOSPITALIZATIONS AND WILDFIRE
SMOKE BY 50% BY TWENTY FIFTY. IT
SHOULD BE MISSION CRITICAL THAT
EVERY SCHOOL OFFERS A STAFFER
SAFE CARE FOR A CHILD TO BREED.
BUT THEY CANNOT GET THERE
WITHOUT HELP. THIS BILL HELPS
ALIGN FEDERAL STATE DOLLARS TO
ENSURE WE USE OUR RESOURCES
WISELY TO CREATE SAFE HEALTHY
SPACES FOR CHILDREN. TO THRIVE
THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THE
OPPORTUNITY. ATIVIDADE WITH FTA
