State Issues
Week of January 14, 2019 State Issues Legislative Analyst This week, the Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) released its overview of Governor Newsom’s budget proposal for FY Report on State 2019-20 that was presented last week, and saw a new leader selected to lead this non-partisan organization. The Budget Legislature appointed a new state Legislative Analyst to fill the role Mac Taylor has held for 10 years. They named Gabriel Petek to the post, who most recently worked for Standard and Poor’s Global Ratings San Francisco Office where he is currently the state’s primary credit analyst. He takes the reins on February 4. In addition to getting a new chief, the LAO released its overview of the Governor’s January budget highlighting that that state’s budget position continues to be strong. They also focus on the fact that the Governor’s proposed budget prioritizes the repayments of state debts and a great deal of one-time funding. Nearly half of the discretionary spending is earmarked to pay down state liabilities, including unfunded retirement liabilities and budget debts. Twenty-five (25) percent of the discretionary spending is for one time or temporary funding proposals, and 15 percent for discretionary reserves. The LAO applauds the Governor’s decision to focus on the repayment of state debts. The LAO points out one thing that many took note of – the Governor has outlined many priorities for budgetary spending. And at least some of the proposals are not fully fleshed out or reflected in the budget document. The LAO was not critical of this but pointed out that these un-finalized proposals give the Legislature the opportunity to weigh in with the Administration and have their say in its development.

May 19, 2020 Senator Scott Wiener California State Senate Sacramento
May 19, 2020 Senator Scott Wiener California State Senate Sacramento, CA 95814 Via email to: [email protected] cc: [email protected] & [email protected] Re: OPPOSITION of SB 939 – UNFAIRLY NEGATES LEASES & UNEVENLY HARMS BUSINESSES Dear Senator Wiener: Established in 1924, Central City Association is an advocacy organization committed to the vibrancy of Downtown Los Angeles and increasing investment in the region. As you know from our support of SB 50 and SB 827, we are strong advocates for walkable and inclusive communities and greatly appreciate the work you have done to support businesses across California; however, we strongly oppose SB 939 as proposed. CCA understands the impossible fiscal challenges that businesses are facing across the state due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but we believe SB 939 unfairly benefits one business over another. COVID-19 will continue to impact the health and safety of our communities and businesses. As a membership organization that represents approximately 400 organizations in LA County, we know that all businesses are impacted by this pandemic. However, SB 939 only provides protection to a small segment, while shifting economic harm to other private businesses and removing rights from commercial property owners. Governor Newsom has shown strong leadership in issuing a series of executive orders limiting evictions, including Executive Order N-28-20 which gives local government the ability to protect commercial tenants from evictions. Legislative leadership has also proposed a plan that helps lessors and lessees. We request your bill be changed to protect all businesses and not a special subset.

Build Back Boldly Budget Proposes Eight Transformative Proposals and Key Subcommittee Packages
BUILD BACK BOLDLY Senate Democrats Budget Priorities for 2021-22 and Beyond Senator Toni G. Atkins Senator Nancy Skinner President pro Tempore Chair, Committee on Budget and Fiscal Review Senator John Laird Senator Susan Talamantes Eggman Senator Maria Elena Durazo Chair, Subcommittee 1 Chair, Subcommittee 3 Chair, Subcommittee 5 Senator Bob Wieckowski Senator Anna Caballero Chair, Subcommittee 2 Chair, Subcommittee 4 4.13.21 BUILD BACK BOLDLY Introduction Background The Build Back Boldly budget embraces the once-a-generation opportunity for California to make bold transformative progress as the economy rebounds from the COVID-19 crisis: • A decade of responsible budgeting enabled California to endure the recession without massive, widespread program cuts or middle class tax increases – which means that unlike in past recoveries, the budget does not need to first restore billions and billions in program cuts before making new investments. • Tens of billions of available one-time and ongoing General Fund revenues and federal American Rescue Plan funds provide historic levels of resources to take bold action to address existing crisis and make bold transformative progress. • A proactive federal government that largely shares California’s values appears poised to make bold changes for infrastructure, safety net programs, and health care – all of which will spur the national and state economies to soar and therefore pave the way for more bold transformative progress in California. The Build Back Boldly budget embraces the “California Way” attitude that has lead the nation in progressive change and “busted” the myths that progressive policies are bad for the economy. From a tax system that relies most on those that can most afford to pay, to expanding the Obamacare subsidies to the middle class, to fighting climate change, to implementing criminal justice reforms, to expanding paid family leave, to phasing in the $15 minimum wage – California has been the progressive leader.

Rural Caucus Newsletter 8-13-2019
August 13, 2019 Top of the Agenda: Fire Insurance Crisis Dear Fellow Rural Caucus Members, Here is the agenda for our meeting in San Jose, Friday August 23. Topic A is Fire Insurance. This is our opportunity to meet with Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara, hear from some of our counties on actions they are taking, and insert the Rural Caucus into the conversation as the Legislature formulates new laws (in the next four weeks) on how to mitigate the crisis. These laws do not even have numbers yet. They are just being negotiated. We will also be voting on proposed amendments to the Rural Plank for the 2020 CDP Platform, posted on our website. Very importantly, we need to rally against AB 1366 (Gonzalez) - Voice over Internet Protocol and Internet Protocol enabled communications services, which extends the providers’ free reign over what is essentially phone service. We know that without oversight, the telecoms always give short-shrift to our rural communities. Our position has changed: Back in May, at our meeting in San Francisco, we voted to support, if amended, to ensure enforceable, reliable and resilient access to 911, minimum standards for the reliability and quality of the State’s communications grid - especially in times of emergency - consumer protection and to maintain the State’s universal service programs that support communities across the state, such as the deaf, disabled, poor, rural, schools and nonprofit entities – in the Public Utilities Code.” Unfortunately, the bill, as amended is far too weak. We need to now stop it in Appropriations … or perhaps ultimately with the Governor’s veto.
