A Quick Update on our Legislative Efforts

The Surrogate Stalker Act (AB 534) has passed out of the Senate Public Safety Committee. Not only did the bill pass but the chair, Sen. Gloria Romero, also asked to be a joint author (which should help it move through the Senate). It will go to the Senate Appropriations Committee next.

Also good news to report on the Water Polo Bill (AB 2104); it has passed unanimously out of the Assembly Public Safety Committee. The Chair of this committee, Assemblyman Jose Solorio, was instrumental in its passage. It now heads to the Assembly Appropriations Committee.

Unfortunately the Ice Cream Truck Bill (AB 2169) has essentially failed. It is a complicated story but it basically hit some roadblocks in the Business and Professions Committee. We are disappointed about this and hope that something else can be done in the future.

We will keep you posted on the bills moving forward and let you know how to help get them through the next committees.

Have you seen Scott Stanford's latest website called secretsnapshots.com? It's based on the article published by the OC Register.

Is Cameron still trying to pass AB 2104, or did the attention die down?
