TO THE FOURTH OF JULY. OPEN ON
THE RESOLUTION. THANK YOU, MR
SPEAKER AND MEMBERS. THANK YOU
FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT
HR 40 TO COMMEMORATE A
COMMEMORATING JULY 4TH ASKED
INDEPENDENCE DAY. 247 YEARS AGO,
THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
WAS SIGNED, BRINGING FORTH A NEW
NATION, THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA. THIS DAY IS A
REPRESENTATION OF FREEDOM,
LIBERTY AND INDEPENDENCE A DAY
WHERE OUR FOREBEARERS AND SHRINE
THAT ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL.
LATER OUR COUNTRY CAME TO
UNDERSTAND THAT THIS APPLIED TO
MORE THAN LANDOWNING MEN THAT
WOMEN, PEOPLE OF COLOR AND OTHER
MINORITY GROUPS ALSO DESERVE THE
RIGHTS. THEY DESCRIBED. SELF
EVIDENT AND UNALIENABLE. LIKE
OUR COUNTRY TODAY, OUR FOUNDING
FATHERS WERE FILLED WITH
CONTRADICTIONS. A MAN WHO
ENSLAVED OUT THERE HUMAN BEINGS,
WROTE THE WROTE THIS ORANGE
RHETORIC OF THE DECLARATION THAT
CONTINUES TO INSPIRE THOSE IN
SEARCH OF FREEDOM. OTHERS
PROFITED OFF OF AN ECONOMIC
SYSTEM WHOLEHEARTEDLY WHOLLY
DEPENDENT ON ENSLAVED PEOPLE.
THEREFORE WHILE WE STRONGLY
CONDEMNED THOSE ACTIONS, WE ALSO
RECOGNIZE THE BRAVERY OF THOSE
WHO RISKED OR GAVE THEIR LIVES
TO ESTABLISH OUR COUNTRY AND
HONOR THE BRILLIANCE FOUND IN
THE SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT THAT
THEY DESIGNED THEY CREATED A
GOVERNMENT THAT RULED NOT BY THE
SO CALLED DIVINE RIDE OF A KING
OR A QUEEN, BUT BY THE CONSENT
OF THE GOVERNED. THOSE FOUNDERS
DID NOT KNOW IF THEIR GRAND
EXPERIMENT IN SELF GOVERNANCE
WOULD WORK. BUT HERE WE ARE 247
YEARS LATER, WE STAND HERE
TOGETHER AS A TESTAMENT TO THOSE
IDEAS AND BEACON OF HOPE TO SO
MANY ACROSS THE WORLD. IN
SUPPORTING THIS RESOLUTION. I
ASKED THAT WE ALL AS
CALIFORNIANS AND AMERICANS
RECOMMIT OURSELVES TO THOSE
VALUES FOUND IN OUR FOUNDING
DOCUMENT AND WORK. TO PROTECT
THE RIGHTS OF ALL OF US TO LIFE,
LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF
HAPPINESS. I ALSO JUST WANT TO
SAY THAT I HOPE THAT AS WE GO
BACK TO OUR DISTRICTS THIS
TOMORROW TO CELEBRATE JULY 4TH.
WE CONTINUE TO WORK HARD TO
ENSURE THAT WE RECOMMIT
OURSELVES TO THOSE VALUES. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR EYE
BOAT ON HR 42. THANK YOU.
SOMEONE HISTORIA AND SOME MEMBER
SILLY. YOU'RE RECOGNIZED ON THE
RESOLUTION. THANK YOU, MR
SPEAKER. I RISE WITH GREAT
HUMILITY AND GRATITUDE AND
CELEBRATION OF THE BIRTH OF OUR
NATION. AMONGST ALL THE NOISE
DIVISION AND POLITICS. WE HAVE
FORGOTTEN WHO WE ARE AS A
PEOPLE. AND WHAT THE UNITED
STATES IS REALLY ABOUT. AMERICA
IS NOT SOME PLOT OF LAND OR AN
ETHNIC GROUP. AMERICA IS AN
IDEA. A REVOLUTIONARY IDEA THAT
OUR FOUNDING FATHERS CAPTURED
AND DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
ON JULY 4TH 17 76. THAT ALL MEN
AND WOMEN ARE CREATED EQUAL THAT
THEY ARE ENDOWED BY THEIR
CREATOR WITH UNALIENABLE RIGHTS.
THAT TO SECURE THESE RIGHTS
GOVERNMENTS. ARE INSTITUTED
AMONG MEN DERIVING THEIR JUST
POWERS FROM THE CONSENT OF THE
GOVERNED. SUCH A SIMPLE BUT
PROFOUND CONCEPT. ALL RIGHTS
COME FROM GOD. AND THOSE RIGHTS
ARE LOANED. BY THE PEOPLE TO THE
GOVERNMENT. SOME GOVERNMENT
LEADERS SEEM TO HAVE FORGOTTEN
THIS. THEY BELIEVE THEY OWN US
AND OUR MONEY. ACTING MORE AKIN
TO PUBLIC MASTERS THAN PUBLIC
SERVANTS. AS ELECTED OFFICIALS.
WE TOOK AN OATH TO DEFEND THE
CONSTITUTION AND WE MUST REJECT
AS ELECTED LEADERS. THE URGE TO
MASK MORE POWER. AND THE
SEDUCTION. TO, UH OF TYRANNY.
BECAUSE OUR FOUNDING FATHERS
WERE NOT JUST WORRIED ABOUT THE
TYRANNY OF A KING. THEY WERE
ALSO WORRIED ABOUT THE TYRANNY
OF THE MAJORITY. AND THAT'S WHY
THEY CREATED A REPUBLIC, WHICH
CHECKS AND BALANCES, NOT A
DEMOCRACY. THE CREATION OF THE
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA HAS
BEEN A TREMENDOUS SUCCESS. IN
ITS SHORT LIFE OF OUR NATION. WE
HAVE BEEN HOME TO THE GREATEST
ADVANCES IN SCIENCE TECHNOLOGY,
ARTISTIC CREATIVITY AND HUMAN
RIGHTS. SOME OF THE BEST
SCIENTISTS AND ARTISTS IN
HISTORY WILL TELL YOU THEY CAME
TO AMERICA. TO PURSUE DREAMS
THAT SEEMED FAR TOO BIG OR
EXOTIC FOR THEIR SMALL AND
HUMBLE HOMES. AMERICA IS WHERE
PEOPLE COME TO CHANGE THE WORLD.
BECAUSE WHAT AMERICA PROMISES IS
OPPORTUNITY. THE OPPORTUNITY TO
WORK HARD AND ACHIEVE TREMENDOUS
SUCCESS. IN AMERICA, INDIVIDUALS
HOLD THE KEYS TO THEIR OWN
SUCCESS. YOUR DESTINY IS
DETERMINED BY YOURSELF
DETERMINATION, NOT BY ANY
OUTSIDE FORCE OR SOME GOVERNMENT
AGENCY. SO WHEN PEOPLE SEEK TO
DIVIDE US AND DEMORALIZE US, I
SAY TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
REMEMBER WHO WE ARE. WE ARE NOT
VICTIMS. WE ARE FREE. FREE TO
DECIDE HOW TO LIVE OUR LIVES AND
WHAT TO MAKE OF OURSELVES. DON'T
LET ANYONE DEFINE YOU. OR LIMIT
YOUR CAPABILITIES. THIS FOURTH
OF JULY. LET'S REMEMBER WE ARE
ONE NATION UNITED BEHIND ONE
FLAG. BE PROUD TO BE AN
AMERICAN. BE GRATEFUL FOR THE
SACRIFICES THOSE HAVE MADE FOR
OUR COUNTRY. GO OUT AND
CELEBRATE AND MOST IMPORTANTLY,
LET FREEDOM RING. HAPPY FOURTH
OF JULY. MAY GOD BLESS THE
UNITED STATES. THANK YOU. THANK
YOU, MR ASTLEY AND
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S JIM PATTERSON.
YOU'RE RECOGNIZED ON THE
RESOLUTION. THANK YOU, MR
SPEAKER FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO
RISE AND STRONG SUPPORT. IN THE
MID TO LATE 18 CENTURY. WHILE
SHOW US RULED IN JAPAN. KINGS
RULED IN EUROPE. EMPERORS RULED
IN CHINA. THE CZARS RULED. IN
RUSSIA. OUR FOUNDERS. WE'RE
THINKING OF A NEW AND RADICAL
WAY. TO GOVERN THEMSELVES. AND
SO AT THE RISK OF THEIR LIVES
AND THEIR PROPERTY. THEY CAME
TOGETHER. AND FIRST OF ALL,
CREATED WHAT I CALL THE POETRY
OF OUR LIBERTY. WHICH IS THE
DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE.
THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL AND POWERFUL
AND MEANINGFUL WORDS. THAT
CREATED THE FOUNDATION UPON
WHICH OUR CONSTITUTION WAS
DRAFTED AND RATIFIED THAT
CONSTITUTION BEING THE CONTRACT.
THAT MADE SURE THAT THE POETRY
OF THE DECLARATION WAS LASTING
AND REAL AND CREATED. A NATION
OF BY AND FOR THE PEOPLE. THINK
ABOUT THE RADICAL NOTION. THAT
YOU WOULD GRANT SOVEREIGNTY OF A
NATION. TO THE PEOPLE. THE
PEOPLE BACK THEN UNDER THE SHOW
AGAIN. OR UNDER THE EMPERORS. OR
UNDER THE CZARS ARE UNDER THE
KINGS. WE WERE NOTHING MORE THAN
SERFS. THOSE THERE. FOR THE
PURPOSES OF. AND GRAND IZING AND
ENRICHING OTHERS. AND HERE WAS
THIS GROUP OF INDIVIDUALS. WHO
DRAFTED THAT WONDERFUL PIECE.
PROMISE. THAT WE ARE ALL CREATED
EQUAL. AND WE'RE IN DOWD. BY OUR
CREATOR. WITH CERTAIN
UNALIENABLE RIGHTS THAT CANNOT
BE TAKEN AWAY. THEY CANNOT BE
SEPARATED. FROM OUR PERSONHOOD.
THAT THOSE RIGHTS LIFE. LIBERTY.
THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS. AND
THAT GOVERNMENT IS ORGANIZED. IN
ORDER TO SAFEGUARD THOSE
LIBERTIES. AND FREEDOMS. AND
FROM THE POETRY AND THE CONTRACT
CAME THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA. WHICH HAS BECOME THE
BEACON AND HOPE AND LIGHT. OF
PEOPLE NOT ONLY BORN HERE, BUT
PEOPLE WHO HAVE LOOKED AT US AND
SAID I WANT TO BE A PART. BUT
THE AMERICAN DREAM. AND SO WE
NOW HAVE A COUNTRY. WE HAVE A
COUNTRY WHERE THE SOVEREIGNTY IS
VESTED IN YOU AND I LET'S NOT
EVER FORGET THE IMPORTANCE.
BEING REMINDED WHO'S IN CHARGE
IN AMERICA. IT'S WE, THE PEOPLE.
SO WE, THE PEOPLE. ISN'T THAT AN
ACCOMPLISHMENT? WORTH JOYOUS
CELEBRATION. ON JULY 4TH. HAPPY
FOURTH OF JULY, EVERYBODY GOD
BLESS AMERICA, AND WE SHOULD ALL
BE GRATEFUL THAT WE LIVE IN A
WONDERFUL PLACE WHERE WE ARE IN
CHARGE. WHERE THE SOVEREIGNS AND
WE ARE REPLACED IN HANDS LIKE
OURS. DELEGATED AUTHORITY TO ACT
ON BEHALF OF THE PEOPLE. SO
HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY A LITTLE
HISTORY LESSON TO REMIND
OURSELVES THAT WHAT THEY DID
BACK THEN THAT WE CAN TAKE FOR
GRANTED SO OFTEN. WAS RADICAL.
DANGEROUS. BUT IT WAS BEAUTIFUL
AND POWERFUL. THAT'S WORTH
CELEBRATING TOMORROW. GOD BLESS
AMERICA. THANK YOU SO MUCH. ERIN
PATTERSON, SEEING NO OTHER
MEMBERS WISHING TO ADDRESS THE
RESOLUTION MYSTERY A ANYTHING
FURTHER TO CLOSE. I RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR YOUR SUPPORT, AND I
WOULD YOU LIKE THE FIRST ROLL
OPEN FOR CO AUTHORS? YES,
PLEASE. VERY WELL. WE'LL OPEN

AUTHORS ON HR 42. ALL THOSE VOTE
WHO DESIRE TO VOTE. THIS IS FOR
CO AUTHORS. CLARK WILL CLOSE THE
ROLE. THERE ARE 69 CO AUTHORS
WITHOUT OBJECTION. WE'LL TAKE A
VOICE VOTE ON THE RESOLUTION.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY, AYE. I
WAS SUPPOSED TO SAY, NATE, THE
EYES HAVE IT RESOLUTION IS
ADOPTED. NEXT FILE ITEM. 27.
THIS IS A CR 86 CORCORAN READ.
CAMERA SOLUTION 86 BY SOMEBODY
RECALLING AND OTHERS RELATIVE TO
ANIMALS OPEN ON THE RESOLUTION.
THANK YOU, MR SPEAKER AND
MEMBERS A CR 86 WOULD ENCOURAGE
STATE LOCAL, NONPROFIT AND
PRIVATE PARTNERS TO WORK
TOGETHER TO IMPLEMENT SOLUTIONS
THAT ADDRESS THE STATE'S ANIMAL
SHELTER OVER POPULATION PROBLEM.
CALIFORNIA'S ANIMAL SHELTERS ARE
OVERCROWDED AND OVERWHELMED.
FORTUNATELY SPANNED NEUTER
SURGERIES ARE AN EFFECTIVE MEANS
OF LIMITING THE UNCHECKED PET
POPULATION. HOWEVER UNSUBSIDIZED
SURGERIES ARE EXPENSIVE, COSTING
HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS PER ANIMAL
AND THE SUPPLY OF LOW AND NO
COST SERVICES CANNOT MEET DEMAND
. LEADING TWO MONTHS LONG WAIT
LIST FOR MANY PROCEDURES. THIS
ISSUE IS FURTHER EXACERBATED BY
CHRONIC VETERINARIAN SHORTAGE
THAT LEAVES CRITICAL SPAY AND
NEUTER FACILITIES WITHOUT PROPER
STAFFING. A CR 86 RECOGNIZES THE
MANY COMPOUNDING CAUSES OF
ANIMAL SHELTER, OVERPOPULATION
AND ENCOURAGES THE CREATION,
FUNDING AND STAFFING OF HIGH
VOLUME SPAY AND NEUTER SERVICES
BY PROMOTING AN EFFECTIVE MULTI
PRONGED SOLUTION TO THIS CRISIS.
THIS RESOLUTION AIMS TO
ALLEVIATE THE PRESSURE FELT BY
OUR ANIMAL SHELTERS AND ENSURE
THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO GIVE
VULNERABLE ANIMALS THE CARE THEY
NEED. RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR MY
VOTE. THANK YOU, MR CHOLERA.
SEEING NO MEMBERS WISHING TO
SPEAK ON THIS RESOLUTION CLERK
WILL OPEN THE ROLE. ADAMS NOTED
THE DESIRE TO BUILD ALL THOSE
VOTES WHO DESIRE TO VOTE. CLERK
WILL CLOSE ROLL. TIE THE BOATS.
I 66 NOTE ZERO. THE RESOLUTION
IS ADOPTED. WE WILL PASS TO
RETAIN ON FILE ITEMS 20 THROUGH
66 BRING US TO FILE ITEMS 67
BEFORE WE TAKE UP THE BILL, I
UNDERSTAND WE HAVE AMENDMENTS OF
THE DESK. ON SB 1 49. THE CLERK
WILL READ THE SENATE BILL 1 49,
WITH AMENDMENTS BY
ASSEMBLYMEMBER'S DAVIES
RECOGNIZED ON THE AMENDMENTS.
THANK YOU, MR CHAIR. TODAY A DAY
BEFORE OUR NATION'S BIRTHDAY
CELEBRATION, WE REMEMBER FREEDOM
AND AMERICAN DREAM. FOR MANY
PART OF THE AMERICAN DREAM IS
THE DREAM OF OWNING A HOME. BUT
HERE IN CALIFORNIA, THAT DREAM
IS SLIPPING AWAY FOR MANY
FAMILIES AS WE ARE IN THE
HOUSING AFFORDABILITY CRISIS.
THIS AMENDMENT WILL MAKE SECRETS
ASSUMPTIONS FOR BUILDING NEW
HOUSES IN OUR STATE, ONLY 20% OF
CALIFORNIA HOUSEHOLDS ARE ABLE
TO AFFORD A MEDIUM PRICE HOME.
THE COST OF BUYING BUILDING OR
OWNING A HOME HERE HAS PREVENTED
MANY FROM REALIZING THE AMERICAN
DREAM AND PUSHED THEM TO TAKE
THEIR DREAMS SOMEWHERE ELSE. IT
ALSO MAKES EXEMPTIONS FOR
WILDFIRE MITIGATION. WHICH WILL
HELP PONO OVER HIS HOMEOWNERS IN
HIGH FIRE AREAS WHO ARE
STRUGGLING TO OBTAIN FIRE
INSURANCE. CALIFORNIA'S RANKED
32 IN THE NATION FOR HOUSING
GROWTH, IT'S TIME TO GET SERIOUS
ABOUT BUILDING HOUSING IN
CALIFORNIA. MAKING THESE
EXEMPTIONS IS ONE WAY TO START
ENCOURAGING BUILDERS TO SPEED UP
THE PROCESS OF ADDING REASONABLE
PRICING, HEALTH UNITS, TOURIST
CITIES AND COUNTY. THIS IS ONE
AMENDMENT THAT WE CAN ALL COME
TOGETHER. FOR THE GOOD OF THE
STATE AND ACTUALLY ACHIEVE REAL
RESULTS. COLLEAGUES YOU'VE GOT
NOTHING TO LOSE IN CALIFORNIA
HAS EVERYTHING TO GAIN. THANK
YOU. THANK YOU, MISS DAVIES AND
MAJORITY LEADER REYES. THANK YOU
, MR SPEAKER. I MOVED TO LAY THE
AMENDMENTS ON THE TABLE MOTION
TO LAY ON THE TABLE. BUT MISS
POWER IN A SECONDED IT'S NOT
DEBATABLE. CLARK WILL OPEN THE
ROLE. ALL THOSE VOTES WHO DESIRE
TO VOTE. MAJORITY LEADER IS
ASKING FOR AN I VOTE, MISS
DAVIES IS ASKING FOR A NO VOTE.
CLERK WILL CLOSE ROLL TALLY
VOTES. EYES 54 NOS 13 MOTION
PASSES. MOVING BACK TO THE BILL
. WE WILL OPEN WITH MS POWER CAN
ON FILE ITEM 67 SP 1 49, THE
CLERK WILL READ SENATE BILL 1 49
BY SENATOR CARBONELL AND OTHERS
, AN APPLE, A NEW ENVIRONMENT,
EQUALITY AND MAKING
APPROPRIATION AND FOR DECLARING
THE URGENCY ARABS TAKE EFFECT
IMMEDIATELY. YOU MAY OPEN. THANK
YOU, MR SPEAKER AND MEMBERS I
RISE ON BEHALF OF OUR COLLEAGUE
SENATOR CABALLERO TO PRESENT SP
1 49 SB 1 49 PROVIDES UNIQUE
STREAMLINING BENEFITS. UNDERSEA
QUIT TO ADVANCE CLEAN ENERGY,
WATER, TRANSPORTATION AND
SEMICONDUCTOR MICROELECTRONICS.
PROJECTS WITHOUT REDUCING THE
ENVIRONMENTAL GOVERNMENTAL
TRANSPARENCY BENEFITS OF THE
REVIEW PROCESS. SO TO BE CLEAR.
THIS BILL REQUIRES FULL SEQUEL
REVIEW BUT ALLOWS FOR 270 DAYS
STREAMLINE FOR THOSE PROJECTS
THAT ARE ELIGIBLE. CALIFORNIA
EXPECTS TO MAKE HISTORIC
INVESTMENTS IN INFRASTRUCTURE AS
A RESULT OF FEDERAL FUNDS THAT
ARE AVAILABLE IN THE
INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENT IN
JOBS ACT, THE INFLATION
REDUCTION ACT AND THE CHIPS AND
SCIENCE AGUIAR-CURRY MAYES.
THOSE DOLLARS COMING TO
CALIFORNIA AND ENSURE WE CAN
BUILD THESE PROJECTS TO BRING
THE JOBS AND THE BENEFITS THAT
ALL OF US ARE SEEKING, WHETHER
IT BE IN TRANSPORTATION IN WATER
OR ELSEWHERE. I WANT TO THANK
OUR COLLEAGUE FOR BRINGING UP
HOUSING. THE LEGISLATURE WORKED
HARD TO ENSURE THERE WERE
HOUSING BENEFITS IN THIS BILL.
AS A RESULT, THERE IS AN
EXTENSION OF PRIOR LEGISLATION
TO ENSURE STREAMLINING OF
HOUSING PROJECTS. AND LASTLY, I
WANT TO MENTION A REALLY
IMPORTANT PIECE OF THIS. THERE'S
BEEN CONCERNS ABOUT
ENVIRONMENTALLY COMPLEX PROJECTS
. OBVIOUSLY AS THE CHAIR OF
WATER I UNDERSTAND FIRSTHAND HOW
COMPLEX SOME OF THESE PROJECTS
COULD BE. THE SEQUENCE
STREAMLINING IN THIS BILL IS
SUBJECT TO AN EXTENT FEASIBLE
CLAUSE. SO IF THE COURT WERE TO
FIND THAT A PROJECT WE'RE NOT
FEASIBLE TO BE SUBJECT TO THE
270 DAYS, STREAMLINING, THEN IT
WOULD NOT HAVE TO DO SO. WITH
THAT. I THINK WE HAVE THE
PROTECTIONS WE NEED FOR THE
ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE
PROJECTS. BUT WE'RE ALLOWING
WHERE NECESSARY AND WHERE
POSSIBLE TO MOVE PROJECTS
FORWARD THAT ALL OF US CAN SEE
THE BENEFIT OF FOR EXAMPLE,
FLOODPLAIN EXPANSION, WHICH IS
GOOD FOR OUR ENVIRONMENT AND OUR
COMMUNITIES, ENSURING THAT OUR
WATERWAYS ARE WHINED AND THAT WE
AREN'T SEEING THE SUBSIDENCE. WE
SEE IN THE CENTRAL VALLEY RIGHT
NOW. HOPEFULLY WE CAN MOVE
FASTER AND, UH MORE SWIFTLY ON
PROJECTS THAT WILL PROTECT OUR
COMMUNITIES THAT SAW SUCH HUGE
FLOODING WITH DAM SAFETY AND
OTHER UM LEVY PROJECTS. AND WITH
THAT, I WILL RESPECTFULLY ASK
YOUR I VOTE. THANK YOU, MR BAUER
CANE AMERICANA. LEE, WHO
RECOGNIZED ON THE BILL. THANK
YOU, MR SPEAKER AND MEMBERS
ARISE TODAY TO SPEAK ON MY
CONCERNS WITH WHERE THIS BILL IS
TAKING CALIFORNIA AND THE RISK
OF REMOVING PROTECTIONS FOR OUR
MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES AND
ECOSYSTEMS. HAVE HISTORICALLY
BEEN OPPOSED TO SEEK WHAT
JUDICIAL STREAMLINING GOING BACK
TO MY DAYS AS A LOCAL OFFICIAL
AND MEMBER OF METROPOLITAN
TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION.
OPPOSING SEQUEL EXEMPTIONS FOR
NEW STADIUMS. CALIFORNIA IS A
GLOBAL LEADER IN ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION AND SEQUENCE HAS BEEN
INSTRUMENTAL IN PROTECTING
CALIFORNIA'S NATURAL TREASURES
AND PREVENTING ENVIRONMENTAL
DISASTERS THAT WERE ALL TOO
COMMON IN THE PAST. HOWEVER I
KNOW THAT THIS BILL IS BETTER
TODAY BECAUSE OF THE HARD WORK
AND LONG NIGHTS OF OUR GREAT
LEADERS AND ADVOCATES HERE IN
THE ASSEMBLY. AND IT'S NOT LOST
TO ME THAT THIS IS PART OF A
LARGER BUDGET PROCESS THAT HAS
BEEN THE SUBJECT OF LENGTHY
NEGOTIATIONS. I WANT TO THANK
LEADERSHIP AND SPEAKER REVIS FOR
ENSURING THAT MORE PROTECTIONS
WERE ADDED TO INTO THE BILL, AND
THAT COMPLEX PROJECTS AS MY
COLLEAGUE JUST NOTED. WILL STILL
RECEIVE THE RIGOROUS SCRUTINY
AND PUBLIC TRANSPARENCY THAT
THEY REQUIRE. I WILL BE VOTING
FOR THE BILL TODAY WHILE
MAINTAINING A CLOSE EYE ON THE
REAL WORLD IMPLEMENTATION THAT
FOLLOWS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU,
MR CONNELLY AND SUMMER VIA
POODLE RECOGNIZED ON THE BILL.
THANK YOU, MR SPEAKER MEMBERS. I
RISE IN SUPPORT OF SB 1 49, AND
I JUST WANTED TO COMMEND
EVERYONE INVOLVED IN THESE
NEGOTIATIONS FOR THEIR TIRESOME
EFFORTS. WELL I WISH WE HAD MORE
THAN JUST A FEW WEEKS TO FLESH
OUT SUCH A SUBSTANTIAL PROPOSAL.
THIS FINAL PRODUCT SHOWS THAT
WHAT WE CAN BE WHAT WE CAN
ACCOMPLISH WHEN WE ALL COME
TOGETHER. WHEN THIS PROPOSAL
FIRST CAME OUT GET ALARMED MY
COMMUNITY AND VERY MUCH SO. I AM
PLEASED TO SAY THAT THOSE ALARMS
HAVE SINCE QUIET DOWN. THE
FRAGILE DELTA ECOSYSTEM REMAINS
PROTECTED, AND WE WERE ABLE TO
HELP ADVANCE IMPORTANT PROJECTS
AROUND CALIFORNIA AT THE SAME
TIME, I WANT TO THANK THE AUTHOR
FOR HER HELP. AND THANK YOU ALL
OF YOU FOR TAKING PART OF THIS.
THIS WE'RE VERY LENGTHY
MEETINGS. UM THERE'S NOT ALWAYS
THE RIGHT ANSWER. AND I KNOW
SOMETIMES WE DON'T PLEASE
EVERYONE. BUT I CAN TELL YOU
THAT A LOT OF EFFORTS A LOT OF
FOLKS THAT THAT TOOK THE TIME
THEIR EXPERTISE AND TO GIVE US
OUR EXPERTISE AND MAKING THESE
DECISIONS. UM THAT'S WHY WE'RE
HERE. SO I WANT TO THANK THE
AUTHOR AND I RESPECT THE ASK FOR
MY VOTE. THANK YOU, MR V.
VALLAPUDUA AND SOME MEMBER
VALENCIA RECOGNIZED ON THE BILL
. THANK YOU. AND WHEN I STARTED
MR SPEAKER AND MEMBERS I RISE IN
SUPPORT OF SB 1 49, WHICH WILL
POSITION CALIFORNIA TO BUILD THE
INFRASTRUCTURE OF THE FUTURE. SB
1 49 EXPEDITES JUDICIAL REVIEW
FOR CERTAIN INFRASTRUCTURE
PROJECTS THAT ARE CRITICAL TO
HELP MEET OUR AMBITIOUS CLIMATE
GOALS AND PREPARE FOR CLIMATE
CHANGE IMPACTS. WE MUST ACT NOW
IN ORDER TO PREPARE FOR
POTENTIAL BLACKOUTS, LONG
DROUGHTS AND MASSIVE FLOODS. TO
ENSURE RELIABILITY. OUR STATE
NEEDS MORE RENEWABLE ENERGY
SOURCES AND STORAGE TO COME
ONLINE. THE SAME CAN BE SAID FOR
WATER AND TRANSPORTATION
PROJECTS. THIS BILL WILL HELP
EXPEDITE THE DEVELOPMENT OF
THESE RESOURCES BY ENSURING THAT
IF A PROJECT IS CHALLENGED UNDER
SEQUA, A TIMELY RESPONSE IS
PROVIDED. IT IS POSSIBLE TO
THREAD THE NEEDLE. WE CAN BUILD
INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS
EFFICIENTLY WHILE MAINTAINING A
STRONG JUDICIAL REVIEW PROCESS.
I BELIEVE THAT THIS BILL STRIKES
THAT APPROPRIATE BALANCE. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR A YES VOTE
. GRACIAS THANK YOU, MISTER
