AB 1245. This came up before the Assembly Insurance Committee. This bill will phase in a requirement that businesses file their quarterly data and taxes with EDD on line. Small Business California is the sponsor of this bill along with EDD. We sponsored this because we believe it is more efficient and accurate for small business and EDD has estimated it will save $8.4 million. Lori Kammerer, our Governmental Affairs person, and I testified at the Committee hearing. It passed 11 to 1 and will go on to Assembly Appropriations.
SB 608. The so called "Right to Rest" bill would allow homeless to usurp the ability of local jurisdictions across the state to implement voter approved ordinances aimed at protecting and maintaining safe, secure and civil streets. Senator Liu held the bill back recognizing she didn’t have the votes in the Transportation and Housing Committee . She could bring this back, but it is expected that this will not be the case. Small Business California strongly opposed this bill.
