SIGNING ORDER. HE IS NOT HERE.
SO. OKAY, WE WILL GO TO MISS
REYES, YOU WILL BE PRESENTING AB
1842.
AND I SEE YOU HAVE A WITNESS.
YOUR WITNESS WILL HAVE TWO
MINUTES TO PRESENT. THANK YOU,
MADAM CHAIR. COMMITTEE MEMBERS,
THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO
PRESENT AB 1842. THIS BILL
PROHIBITS COMMERCIAL HEALTH
INSURERS FROM IMPOSING PRIOR
AUTHORIZATION RULES THAT CREATE
BARRIERS TO ACCESSING MEDICATION
ASSISTED TREATMENT. MEDICATIONS
SUCH AS YOU. BUPRENORPHINE,
BUPRENORPHINE, BUPRENORPHINE, OR
LONG ACTING NALTREXONE CAN
SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE TREATMENT
FOR MANY SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS
BY TREATING, CRAVING WITH AND
WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS. HOWEVER,
MEDICATION ASSISTED TREATMENT IS
UNDERUTILIZED DUE TO PRIOR
AUTHORIZATION REQUIREMENTS,
WHICH CREATE UNNECESSARY
BARRIERS THAT DELAY OR INTERRUPT
ACCESS TO TREATMENT. WHILE THERE
ARE MINOR COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH
THIS BILL, AB 1842 IS AN
IMPORTANT STEP THAT WILL REDUCE
OVERDOSE RATES AND SAVE LIVES.
HERE TO SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THE
BILL IS DOCTOR AMY MULLIN,
PROFESSOR OF EMERGENCY MEDICINE
AND DIVISION CHIEF OF ADDICTION
MEDICINE AT UC DAVIS AND
DIRECTOR OF THE CALIFORNIA
BRIDGE PROGRAM. THANK YOU, MISS
RASIN. JUST BEFORE YOU BEGIN,
I'D LOVE TO ESTABLISH A QUORUM.
I THINK WE HAVE ENOUGH FOLKS
HERE, MADAM SECRETARY. PLEASE
CALL THE ROLL. WIX. HERE. WIX

CALDERON. COUNTER ON HERE. WE
HAVE A QUORUM. THANK YOU. YOU
MAY PROCEED. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH. I'M AMY MULLIN. I'M AN
EMERGENCY PHYSICIAN. I'M ALSO
WORKING WITH OVER 270 OF OUR
ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS ACROSS
CALIFORNIA. WE ARE STARTING
PATIENTS ON MEDICATION ASSISTED
TREATMENT IN THE EMERGENCY
DEPARTMENT. WHEN WE DO THAT, WE
ARE ABLE TO HELP TREAT CRAVINGS
AND WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS FOR
PATIENTS. AND THIS HAS BEEN
SHOWN IN STUDIES TO INCREASE
PATIENTS LIKELIHOOD OF ENGAGING
IN TREATMENT, AS WELL AS LONG
TERME RECOVERY AND REDUCED
DEATHS. HOWEVER, WHEN PATIENTS
N AFTER BEING STABILIZED IN THE
EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT ARE UNABLE
TO ACCESS THAT MEDICATION DUE TO
DELAYS AND DENIALS FROM THE
PHARMACY, THEY GO BACK INTO
WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS. THEY RETURN
TO HAVING CRAVINGS AND OFTEN
RETURN TO USE SO THAT TREATABLE
MOMENT THAT WE HAD ACCESS TO IN
THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT IS
LOST. I HIGHLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO
PASS THIS BILL BECAUSE IT WILL
SAVE LIVES OF CALIFORNIANS.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU. AND WOULD
ANYONE IN THE ROOM LIKE TO SPEAK
IN FAVOR OF THE BILL? PLEASE?
NAME, ORGANIZATION AND POSITION.
THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR. MEMBERS
TIM MADDEN, REPRESENTING THE
CALIFORNIA CHAPTER OF THE
AMERICAN COLLEGE OF EMERGENCY
PHYSICIANS IN SUPPORT. THANK YOU
. GOOD MORNING, MADAM CHAIR, AND
MEMBERS, MARTY LOPEZ WITH THE
CALIFORNIA NURSES ASSOCIATION IN
SUPPORT. THANK YOU. DO WE HAVE
ANY PRIMARY WITNESSES IN
OPPOSITION? ANY ADDITIONAL
WITNESSES LIKE TO EXPRESS
OPPOSITION? GREAT. WE'LL BRING
IT BACK TO THE COMMITTEE. ANY
QUESTIONS? AS OKAY. WOULD YOU
LIKE TO CLOSE? THANK YOU. IT'S
CLEAR THAT THIS MEASURE IS
URGENTLY NEEDED TO ADDRESS THE
CURRENT OVERDOSE CRISIS IN OUR
STATE. I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR
YOUR. AYE VOTE. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH. MISS REYES, DO WE HAVE A
MOTION? A MOTION BY MR. HART, A
SECOND BY MR. ARAMBULA, THE
MOTION IS Dð. PASS IS WITH AN
AYE. IT'S OKAY. OKAY THAT'S
OKAY, AND A ROLL CALL. THANK YOU
.
OKAY, THAT MEASURE IS OUT,
GREAT. NEXT WE HAVE MR. BERMAN'S
NOT HERE. SO, MISS BONTA, YOU
ARE PRESENTING. 2401.
YOU MAY BEGIN. THANK YOU. CHAIR
AND COMMITTEE MEMBERS AB 2041
AIMS TO PROTECT CANDIDATES
ELECTED OFFICIALS, THEIR
FAMILIES AND STAFF BY
AUTHORIZING PERSONAL SECURITY AS
A CAMPAIGN EXPENSE AND EXPANDING
ELIGIBILITY FOR SECURITY.
CANDIDATE SECURITY IS A
NONPARTISAN ISSUE AND HAS
PREVIOUSLY RECEIVED BIPARTISAN
SUPPORT. AB 2041 IS AN IMPACTFUL
BILL THAT WOULD BE A MINOR AND
ABSORBABLE COST. I RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR YOUR I VOTE. THANK YOU,
MISS BONTA. AND YOU HAVE NO
PRIMARY WITNESSES. ARE THERE
ANYONE IN THE ROOM WISH TO
EXPRESS SUPPORT? ANY FOLKS IN
THE ROOM WISH TO EXPRESS
OPPOSITION? WE WILL BRING IT
BACK TO THE COMMITTEE. ANY
QUESTIONS? WOULD YOU LIKE TO
CLOSE? THANK YOU SO MUCH. THIS
IS A VERY IMPORTANT BILL FOR
MANY CANDIDATES AND ELECTED
OFFICIALS TO ENSURE THAT THEY
CAN ENSURE THAT THEY HAVE
PRIVACY AND SECURITY FOR THEIR
FAMILY, STAFF AND LOVED ONES.
THANK YOU, I APPRECIATE YOU
RUNNING THIS BILL AGAIN. I WAS A
BIG SUPPORTER OF THE LAST TIME.
PERSONALLY, I THINK IT'S
IMPORTANT AND HAVE HAD SOME OF
THE EXPERIENCES THAT WOULD
WARRANT SUCH SECURITY MYSELF. SO
THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS UP
AGAIN, DO WE HAVE A MOTION? A
MOTION BY MR. ARAMBULA, SECOND
BY MISS CALDERON. AND IT IS, AN
A ROLL CALL. OH, SORRY. MOTION
IS SORRY. MOTION IS DUE. PASS
WITH AN A ROLL CALL WITH MR.
PATTERSON NOT VOTING. THANK YOU.
WE HAVE MISS PAPIN NEXT. MISS
PAPIN, YOU ARE PRESENTING THE AB
2037. THAT'S RIGHT. GOOD
MORNING, MADAM CHAIR. AND
COMMITTEE MEMBERS. NICE TO BE
WITH YOU THIS MORNING, AB 20
2037 WILL GIVE COUNTY SEALERS
THE AUTHORITY TO TEST AND VERIFY
OWNED EV CHARGERS. MUNICIPALLY
OWNED EV CHARGERS, EXCUSE ME?
COUNTY SEALERS ARE TASKED WITH
TESTING AND VERIFYING COMMERCIAL
MEASUREMENT DEVICES, SUCH AS
YOUR GROCERY STORE SCALES, YOUR
GAS PUMPS. WELL GUESS WHAT? WITH
NEW TECHNOLOGY COMES THE NEED TO
MAKE SURE THAT YOU GET WHAT YOU
PAY FOR WHEN YOU SADDLE ON UP TO
AN EV CHARGER. A MUNICIPALLY
OWNED EV CHARGER, BUT THERE IS
NO, ENTITY IN CHARGE OF THEM AT
THIS MOMENT. SO TO ENSURE
CONFIDENCE, IMPARTIALITY AND
CONSUMER PROTECTION, IT'S
IMPERATIVE THAT COUNTY SEALERS
HAVE CLEAR AUTHORITY TO TEST AND
VERIFY PUBLICLY OWNED EV
CHARGERS WITH INFLATION AND
GROWING INCOME DISPARITY, PEOPLE
ARE EXPERIENCING HARD TIMES.
WHEN EVERY DOLLAR COUNTS, IT'S
CRITICAL THAT YOU GET WHAT YOU
PAY FOR. IN THAT SAME VEIN, THE
WORDS YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING
FOR THIS BILL COMES AT NO
SIGNIFICANT COST TO THE STATE,
SO HERE TO TESTIFY WITH ME
TODAY, I'M HONORED TO HAVE PAT
STERLING ON BEHALF OF THE COUNTY
SEALERS. THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR.
MEMBERS, MATTHEW SEIBERLING, ON
BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA
AGRICULTURAL COMMISSIONERS AND
SEALERS ASSOCIATION. AS THE
MEMBER STATED, THIS PROGRAM IS
FUNDED ENTIRELY BY USER FEES FOR
REGISTRATION FEES FOR ANYBODY
THAT'S USING A COMMERCIAL
WEIGHING AND MEASURING DEVICE IN
THE MARKETPLACE. AND WE'RE
APPLYING THIS TO EV CHARGERS
THAT ARE OWNED OR PARTIALLY
OWNED BY CITIES, COUNTIES OR THE
STATE, BUT THE PRINCIPAL REASON
THAT WE'RE PUSHING THIS BILL IS
ESSENTIALLY THE UNIVERSE OF
THESE TYPES OF DEVICES THAT WERE
OWNED BY PUBLIC AGENCIES WAS
VERY SMALL FOR DECADES. LARGELY
LIMITED TO SCALES AT COUNTY
REFUGE SITES. BUT NOW, WITH THE
NEW WORLD OF EV CHARGERS AND THE
BUSINESS MODEL THAT ARE BEING
OFFERED BY CITIES, WE NEEDED
CLEAR AUTHORITY TO GO IN AND
MAKE SURE AGAIN THAT THE
CUSTOMER IS GETTING WHAT THEY
PAY FOR AND URGENT, I VOTE.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU. ARE THERE
ANY OTHER ADDITIONAL WITNESSES
WISH TO EXPRESS SUPPORT? ANYONE
IN THE ROOM WISH TO EXPRESS
OPPOSITION? OKAY, WE WILL BRING
IT BACK TO COMMITTEE. ANY
QUESTIONS IS OKAY. WOULD YOU
LIKE TO CLOSE DISRESPECT REQUEST
AND I VOTE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR
TIME. GREAT. DO WE HAVE A
MOTION, WE'VE GOT A MOTION. AND
DO WE HAVE A SECOND? OKAY,
GREAT, LET'S SEE, MISS PEPIN, AB
2037 RECOMMENDS A DO PASS, A
ROLL CALL. THANK YOU. AND WE
HAVE MISS MCKENNA. YOU ARE
PRESENTING A B 3127.
GOOD MORNING, MADAM CHAIR. OH,
CAN YOU TURN ON THE MIC, PLEASE?
THANK YOU. EVERY TIME. GOOD
MORNING, MADAM CHAIR. AND
MEMBERS, I AM HERE TO PRESENT AB
3000 127, A BILL THAT WOULD
REMOVE MANDATED REPORTING FROM
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SITUATIONS.
EXCEPT FOR FIREARM AND LIFE
THREATENING INJURIES. AS THE
BILL AND ANALYST STATES, THIS
BILL WOULD LIKELY HAVE NO STATE
COST AND POSSIBLY MINOR COST
SAVING TO THE COURT IN COUNTIES,
SOMETHING THAT IS MUCH NEEDED IN
THE TIME OF A BUDGET DEFICIT.
AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR
VOTE. THANK YOU AND ANY FOLKS IN
THE ROOM WISH TO EXPRESS SUPPORT
. ANY WITNESSES IN OPPOSITION?
WE WILL BRING IT BACK TO
COMMITTEE. ANY QUESTIONS FROM
COLLEAGUES? OKAY. DO WE HAVE.

YES. I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR
