Senate Standing Committee on Appropriations

The Senate Committee on Appropriations will now come to order. Sergeants, please contact any absent members and have them join us for the hearing. Today is a very busy day in the capital. There are four other committee hearings, simultaneously, and I understand that five out of our seven members will have several places to be at all at once. So as long as we can establish a quorum, which we will in just a moment, we will get things moving.

We have 73 measures on today's agenda, all but one of which are candidates for suspense file. The authors for all, the suspense bills have waived presentation as usual. However, we will take testimony from the public on every item. The Department of Finance did notify us that they will not have any comments on any of the bills before the committee this morning. Before we begin, I do wanna remind any witnesses to limit their testimony to the fiscal aspect of the bill.

Please refrain from any policy discussions that are lengthy and repeating prior testimony in your comments. Before we begin our hearing testimony on the measures before us today, let's establish a quorum. Madam assistant, please call the roll.

Dalhe here. Grayson?

Grayson here. Richardson? Wahab? Here. Wahab here.

The quorum has been established. Now, we will move on to the business of the day. We will start with AB 1999 by Assembly member Calra. We have Senator Grayson here to present on behalf of Assembly member Calra. The microphone is yours.

Please begin when you're ready.

Thank you so much, madam Chair. Good morning to you and the members. AB 1999 makes numerous common sense changes to veterinarian statute, reducing staffing shortages in California shelters and making veterinary care more accessible for everyday pet owners. These changes include clarifying the immediate or the telemedicine statute, creating a streamlined process for qualified out of state, veterinarians to become licensed shelter veterinarians and narrowing the owner exemption to exclude surgical procedures.

The California Veterinary Medical Board anticipates a minor absorbable cost, and the Office of Information Services notes implementation costs that are absorbable within existing resources.

By making veterinary care more accessible, AB 1999 will reduce the number of sick and unwanted animals that enter shelters and will help alleviate the significant financial strain experienced by the state's animal shelter system. And seeing do we have witnesses with us today? I see none. I just respectfully ask for an aye vote.

Thank you, Senator Grayson. We will move on to witnesses in support. Do we have any witnesses who like to testify in support to AB 1999? Seeing none, do we have any individuals who like to testify in opposition to Assembly Bill 1999? Seeing none, bringing it back to the committee.

Hi there, Adam Lwin with the California Secretary of State's Office. We're not really opposed to this bill. In fact, we understand the concept behind the bill. However, we have significant concerns with the legislation.

It presents significant technical cybersecurity and operational challenges that make implementation not only impractical but potentially dangerous to the integrity of California's election systems. From a fiscal perspective, the Secretary of State initially estimated approximately 1,000,000 for the core vocab modifications.

However, after discussions with our in house technology experts and external vendors, we determined that the estimate reflects only the basic system programming once in the necessary cybersecurity protections and secure file upload capabilities, image validation technology, third party software testing, and implementation are included.

We estimate the one time implementation cost could approach $10,000,000 with additional ongoing operational and security costs thereafter. For these reasons, we respectfully ask the committee to carefully consider both the significant implementation challenges and the fiscal impacts of this measure. Thank you.

Thank you. Do we have any additional witnesses in opposition to AB 1116?

Seeing none.

Bringing it back to the Committee. Seeing no questions or comments, this bill is a suspense file candidate without objection. AB 1116 will move to the suspense file.

Are there any witnesses present who would like to testify in support to AB 1382?

Good morning, Chair, no members. Nickolaus Sackett for proud co-sponsor Social Compassion in Legislation and our thousands of supporters throughout California. Our local and state governments spend over about $400,000,000 annually in operating animal shelter, animal care and control, and that figure does not include the millions spent by nonprofits and private foundations who rescue animals in support of rest shelters.

This bill is really trying to get out ahead of that and stop spread of new designer pets, which will certainly exacerbate the pet overpopulation crisis in our state.

And bypassing this, we can save a lot of money on our shelter that we spend on our shelters. Additionally, as it pertains to court costs, we have reached out to the Judicial Council. Certainly not speaking for them, but their communications to us is that they don't have any cost concerns about this bill. So we hope, that we can move on eventually. So with that, I respectfully ask for your aye vote. Thank you.

Thank you. Are there any additional witnesses who'd like to speak in support to AB 1382?

There any witnesses who like to testify in opposition to AB 1703?

Thank you so much for the opportunity to speak today. We are a small grassroots group of practitioners, internationally trained who serve a community in California in great need. We were very late to come to our to the opposition of the bill as we do not have a a lobbyist. Senator, Cabrillo and Chair Wahab both agreed after our opposition that the bill should be amended.

As a public safety or consumer safety concern, we were able to show that there had never been, damages, in decades of care, caused by any of our parties that we create a very important role in the community in serving the needs of persons who cannot reach care such as ours.

There's enormous damages we believe if this bill were to go through not only to ourselves with loss of our businesses, but criminalization and the extended costs of criminalizing us for providing decades of care without harming anyone. We are currently associate professor staff for the medical schools in California for osteopathic medicine. So we're very confused by why the bill would wanna remove us from providing care within the community where we teach and work in conjunction with physicians.

I guess in closing, we're our greatest concern is that many, many, many of our patients would fall into the potential of disability, which would come back to state to provide care for them because those services that they came to us for have not been able to be provided through any other form of primary care medicine in the State of California. And many feel that they would not have their activity of daily life, their quality of life, or their well-being without our care.

And as we've demonstrated through, the hospice Medical Board of California's extensive, investigations into our histories that we are all law abiding. None of us have broken into law, misrepresented ourselves in any way.

And so, again, we feel unfairly targeted within the bill and we see that the costs have been deferred to the counties in which we reside in practice to carry the cost of incarcerating us for providing care, which is confusing, at the very least, to the State of California and what the cost would be to this appropriations committee. So, thank you very much, and we ask for your no vote.

Thank you to our witness. Are there any additional witnesses in opposition to AB 1703?
