    [4.15.15] Assembly Member Mark Stone, Chair Assembly Judiciary Committee 1020 N Street Room 104 Sacramento, CA 95814 via FAX (916) 319-2188 Re: AB 597 - OPPOSE Dear Assembly Member Stone: The Southern Coalition for Occupational Safety and Health (SoCalCOSH) is writing to strongly oppose AB 597 by Assembly Member Ken Cooley. SoCalCOSH is a grassroots regional organization dedicated exclusively to healthier and safer workplaces through education, advocacy, & empowerment. We represent workers from all industries, including but not limited to construction, factory, and auto workers who are exposed to asbestos daily. When our members or their family are ill and dying from asbestos, they may use state court to hold accountable the manufacturers, premises owners, and others who knew, since the 1930s about the horrendous dangers of asbestos but failed to warn or provide protection from this deadly toxin. AB 597 is designed to force these asbestos victims to jump through expensive and time- consuming legal hoops before they can move forward with a state court claim. The punishment for failing to follow all the bill’s procedures is delay of the victim’s state court case – which will in all likelihood assure those most ill will die before their case can be decided. The bill’s procedures dictate the victim’s legal strategy by requiring them to pursue claims with 50 or so asbestos trust funds before any lawsuit may proceed. Victims of mesothelioma, a disease caused only by asbestos, commonly survive less than a year or so after diagnosis. For them, justice delayed is justice denied. In practical terms, this means the victim and his/her family will be denied fair compensation - that means the corporate bad actors who poisoned the victim enjoy a financial windfall and avoid full accountability.

  • Assemblymember Ash Kalra to Lead Historic California Delegation to India, First-Ever for State Assembly
    For Immediate Release December 3, 2018 Contact: Roseryn Bhudsabourg, Director of Communications Office of Assembly Member Ash Kalra (916) 319-2027 [email protected] Assemblymember Ash Kalra to Lead Historic California Delegation to India, First-Ever for State Assembly SACRAMENTO – Assemblymember Ash Kalra (D-San Jose), who is the first Indian American elected to the State Legislature, will be leading the California State Assembly’s first-ever delegation to India this month. The historic two-week trade delegation, departing December 4, is sanctioned by Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon (D-Lakewood) and will take six legislators to New Delhi, Hyderabad, Vijayawada, Mumbai and Punjab to discuss bilateral relations and have conversations on political, economic, and social developments in California and India. “Our goal is to identify areas where California’s and India’s policy priorities align—with a special focus on tech’s role in enhancing sustainability in agriculture, energy and transportation,” said Assemblymember Kalra. “There is an opportunity here to continue to build long-term relationships between California and India, and explore ways we can work together to achieve our respective goals. In addition, there is strong interest in exploring how we can work together to ensure that, in a connected and tech-based world, democracy can still thrive.” The legislators from California who are part of the delegation are Assemblymembers Cecilia Aguiar-Curry (D-Winters), Richard Bloom (D-Santa Monica), Sharon Quirk-Silva (D-Fullerton), Eloise Gómez Reyes (D-San Bernardino) and Mark Stone (D-Monterey Bay). The delegation is expected to focus on three major issue areas: agriculture, technology and resilience, and citizenship in a digital democracy.

  • January 6, 2021 the Honorable Cecilia Aguiar-Curry California
    January 6, 2021 The Honorable Cecilia Aguiar-Curry California State Assembly State Capitol, Room 5144 Sacramento, California 95814 Re: AB 14 (Aguiar-Curry) – Communications: broadband services: California Advanced Services Fund. Support – As Introduced December 7, 2020 Dear Assembly Member Aguiar-Curry: On behalf of the California State Association of Counties (CSAC), representing all 58 counties in the state, I am pleased to support your AB 14, related to broadband and the infrastructure subsidies needed to deploy it more broadly. Inequitable access to broadband is a longstanding issue, but the COVID-19 pandemic’s effects on students, workers, small businesses, and everyday life has highlighted just how severe and urgent the disparity is. Bringing our infrastructure into the modern era is critical for all communities, whether or not providers consider them profitable. Addressing these issues will undoubtedly require additional resources to be available as soon as possible, so the additional funding AB 14 would authorize—as well as the authority to issue a revenue bond of up to $1 billion—is critically important. Counties also appreciate the explicit authority for Boards of Supervisors to approve the construction and operation of broadband infrastructure and services. For the aforementioned reasons, we support AB 14 and appreciate your efforts on this important issue. We would like to work with you and your co-authors as this bill moves forward to ensure it contains the reforms necessary to achieve the greatest good for the greatest number

  • Lanterman Coalition
    LANTERMAN COALITION Assembly Member, Speaker Toni Atkins State Capitol, 219 Sacramento, CA 95814 Senator, Pro Tem Kevin De Leon State Capitol, 205 Sacramento, CA 95814 Re: Support for Developmental Services Funding and the Health Care Tax Reform Proposal Dear Assembly Member Atkins and Senator De Leon Re: On behalf of The Lanterman Coalition, a coalition of statewide associations and organization advocating for the preservation of the Lanterman Act we urge your support of the Health Care Tax Reform Proposal that will be coming to you for a vote. Typically, we would not be involved in urging any tax related legislation as we are not experts in taxation but we are experts in developmental services and we are painfully aware of the devastated condition of community services for people with developmental disabilities and their families. What we do know about the Health Care Tax Reform Proposal is that if a solution is not found for reforming the structure of this provider tax, health and human services programs will receive the brunt of the budget cuts that would result, as it is discretionary and developmental services historically receive the majority of those cuts. During this state of system collapse, developmental services cannot survive any share of a budget short fall that would exceed $1 billion. More importantly the administration has identified the Health Care Tax Reform Proposal as the source of funding to begin restoration of developmental services and since the system hasn’t seen a true rate increase since 2000 we desperately need this source of funding as soon as possible to stop the closures of important programs across the state.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: June 13, 2018 Media Contacts
    1215 K Street, Suite 1850 Sacramento, CA 95814 916.446.2520 CALCASA.org FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: June 13, 2018 Media Contacts: - Lorena Campos, Communications Coordinator: [email protected] | 916.471.6168 - Jessica Merrill, Communications & Development Manager: [email protected] | (916) 444- 7163, x118 CA Budget Will Include Funding Increases to Address Sexual and Domestic Violence SACRAMENTO — California’s final state budget included $10 million in new funding for Domestic Violence and Sexual Violence Prevention, with $5 million for each the Rape Crisis and the Family Violence Prevention Programs administered by the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services. California Coalition Against Sexual Assault CEO Sandra Henriquez and California Partnership to End Domestic Violence Executive Director Kathy Moore responded with this joint statement: “This is an important step forward, at an historic moment for the movement to end gender-based violence. Although the final funding differs from our original $50 million ask, we recognize that the budget process involves a series of complex negotiations reflecting the core values and priorities of our state. Successfully advocating for a substantial increase in funding, at a time when the state budget is under tremendous demand, is a victory that we can be proud of. This is a move toward greater equity in services for sexual assault and highlights prevention as key in responding to and ending domestic and sexual violence! Specifically, we are proud that this is the first time the State of California has approved an increase in funding to address sexual assault. However, this budget success does not address the disparity in funding between sexual and domestic violence services, and still falls short of our goal of ongoing funding.
