July 9, 2019 the Honorable Anthony Portantino Chair, Senate
July 9, 2019 The Honorable Anthony Portantino Chair, Senate Appropriations Committee State Capitol, Room 3086 Sacramento, CA 95814 RE: Assembly Bill 1080 (Gonzalez) – SUPPORT IF AMENDED As Amended July 5, 2019 Dear Senator Portantino: On behalf of the Rural County Representatives of California (RCRC), I am writing with respect to Assembly Bill 1080, authored by Assembly Member Lorena Gonzalez, which, among other things, requires manufacturers to source, reduce, and recycle single- use packaging and products sold in California. While we are strongly supportive of what the bill seeks to accomplish, we believe some amendments are vital to avoid costly burdens on local governments. RCRC is an association of thirty-six rural California counties, and the RCRC Board of Directors is comprised of elected supervisors from each of those member counties. California is in the process of implementing SB 1383 (Lara, Chapter 395, 2016), which establishes ambitious goals to reduce landfill disposal of organic waste 75 percent below 2014 levels by 2025. CalRecycle’s far-reaching SB 1383 regulation could cost as much as $20 billion to implement and poses many challenges for local governments. Considering the massive costs local governments will soon face with SB 1383 implementation, it is vital to avoid imposing additional costly requirements on local jurisdictions. Previous versions of AB 1080 appropriately placed compliance obligations on manufacturers and retailers who produce and sell single-use products; however, the June 20 amendments significantly

California Elections and Community College Measures November 2016 Election Round up November 14, 2016
California Elections and Community College Measures November 2016 Election Round Up November 14, 2016 OVERVIEW While the election was last week, ballots are still being counted and final certified results are due to the Secretary of State for presidential electors on December 6, 2016, and for all other state contests on December 9, 2016. The Secretary of State will certify the statewide results by December 16, 2016. Until the results are certified, the outcome of close races may change from what is presented below. Focusing on results affecting California Community Colleges, the election provided mostly positive results including the passage of the statewide bond measure, Proposition 51, as well as a number of local bonds. Californians passed several tax measures including Proposition 55, which will continue to provide funding for education. Voters in San Francisco passed an extension of the parcel tax to help fund the City College of San Francisco as well as another local measure that increases the transfer tax rate for sales of residential and commercial properties. Proponents state, that with the passage of this measure, the City of San Francisco could provide free community college. Funds from this local measure will go to the City’s general fund; however, in July, the Board of Supervisors passed a resolution making the City College of San Francisco free for residents a top priority for the new revenue. If results hold in the State Assembly, the Democrats will have gained a supermajority with three seats switching party hands. However, this could change because one of those seats remains a close contest in Assembly District 55 and all three changes are needed for a supermajority.

Jones Senator Bob Wieckowski California State Capitol Sacramento, CA 95814 Re: AB 1548 (Gabriel): California State Nonprofit Security Grant Program- SUPPORT Dear Senators, On behalf of the Board of Directors, employees and clients of Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of San Francisco, I am writing in support of legislation that will address the alarming rise of anti-immigrant, anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim rhetoric and hate- motivated crime that has been taking place in California in recent years. It is critical that you vote to pass AB 1548 out of the Senate Appropriations Suspense File. The increase in hate motivated violence and the shocking increase in the number of hate groups has made improving security at nonprofit institutions serving other at-risk communities, an urgent priority. This bill will help nonprofit organizations, including but not limited to African Americans, Latinos, Muslims, LGBTQ groups, Sikhs, Asian Americans, immigrants, individuals with disabilities and private nonprofit schools. AB 1548 is urgently needed to provide grant funding for religious and at-risk institutions to strengthen their security and infrastructure. Racism and violence have been a dangerous reality for too long across our nation and in our local communities. Hatred and bigotry are contrary to our values.

May 9, 2019 the Honorable Anthony Portantino Chair, Senate
May 9, 2019 The Honorable Anthony Portantino Chair, Senate Appropriations Committee State Capitol, Room 3086 Sacramento, CA 95814 RE: Senate Bill 632 (Galgiani) – SUPPORT As Amended April 29, 2019 Dear Senator Portantino: On behalf of the Rural County Representatives of California (RCRC), I write to support Senate Bill 632, authored by Senator Cathleen Galgiani, which requires the Board of Forestry to complete its California Environmental Quality Act review of the draft vegetation treatment program environmental impact report by June 30, 2020. RCRC is an association of thirty-six rural California counties, and the RCRC Board of Directors is comprised of elected supervisors from each of those member counties. Over the last several decades, wildfires have grown larger and increased in intensity. This is troubling since high intensity fires are much more ecologically devastating and leads to the growth of fewer-fire-resistant species, thereby adding to future fire risk. RCRC member counties contain much of California’s forested lands and have suffered the vast majority of the State’s most catastrophic wildfire events in the last decade, including the Camp Fire, which completely devastated the City of Paradise and stands on record as the most destructive wildfire in California history with 85 lives lost, nearly 19,000 structures destroyed, and 50,000 people displaced. On January 29, 2019, CAL FIRE Director Thom Porter and Board of Forestry and Fire Protection Chairman Keith Gilless called for the speeding up of “logging and prescribed burns designed to slow wildfires.” They announced that they are starting anew on creating a single environmental review process to cover projects on private land, such as cutting back dense stands of trees and setting controlled fires to burn out thick brush.” CAL FIRE’s recent Community Wildfire Prevention and Mitigation Report recommends certification of the VTP EIR and development of a streamlined permitting process for projects not covered by the VTP EIR.
