AND LET ME GO OVER THE

00:01:19.212 --> 00:01:20.180

OBVIOUSLY WE'RE NOT THERE YET.

00:01:54.714 --> 00:01:56.816
BUT DO APPRECIATE THE VICE

WE'LL TAKE THOSE UP. SO OFF AND

00:02:23.877 --> 00:02:26.479

00:02:26.546 --> 00:02:28.248
AND I KNOW WE HAVE THE AUTHOR

AND YOU MAY BEGIN YOUR

00:02:34.320 --> 00:02:35.321
PRESENTATION AT ANY TIME.

00:02:35.388 --> 00:02:36.422
WELCOME TO THE SENATE

00:02:36.489 --> 00:02:42.195
TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE. THANK

00:02:42.262 --> 00:02:44.697

CHAIR. AND MR. VICE CHAIR AND

00:02:46.232 --> 00:02:48.668
COMMITTEE MEMBERS. I'M REALLY

00:02:48.735 --> 00:02:50.470
PROUD TO BE HERE TODAY TO

00:02:50.537 --> 00:02:53.306
PRESENT ASSEMBLY BILL 1830, A

00:02:53.373 --> 00:02:54.841
MEASURE TO PREVENT DRUNK

00:02:54.908 --> 00:02:57.644
DRIVING TRAGEDIES BEFORE A CAR

00:02:57.710 --> 00:03:02.015
EVEN STARTS. CALIFORNIA AND

00:03:02.081 --> 00:03:03.783
AMERICA IS IN THE MIDST OF A

00:03:03.850 --> 00:03:06.319
DRUNK DRIVING EPIDEMIC. DRUNK

00:03:06.386 --> 00:03:09.188
DRIVERS KILL 37 PEOPLE ON

00:03:09.255 --> 00:03:11.691
AMERICAN ROADS EACH AND EVERY

00:03:11.758 --> 00:03:14.961
DAY. TRAGICALLY, CALIFORNIA IS

00:03:15.028 --> 00:03:17.797
THE EPICENTER OF THIS CRISIS,

00:03:17.864 --> 00:03:21.434
WITH EIGHT OUT OF THE TEN

00:03:21.501 --> 00:03:23.603
DEADLIEST CITIES FOR DUI DEATHS

00:03:23.670 --> 00:03:25.371
RIGHT HERE IN THE STATE OF

00:03:25.438 --> 00:03:27.907
CALIFORNIA. THESE ARE

00:03:27.974 --> 00:03:29.709
PREVENTABLE, PREVENTABLE

00:03:29.776 --> 00:03:31.477
TRAGEDIES AND PREVENTABLE

00:03:31.544 --> 00:03:33.413
DEATHS. AND THE GOOD NEWS IS

00:03:33.479 --> 00:03:35.114
THERE ARE STEPS THAT WE CAN

00:03:35.181 --> 00:03:36.916
TAKE TO MAKE OUR ROADS SAFER

00:03:36.983 --> 00:03:38.351
AND TO SAVE LIVES IN

00:03:38.418 --> 00:03:39.819
COMMUNITIES ALL ACROSS THE

00:03:39.886 --> 00:03:41.888
STATE. I WANT TO THANK YOUR

00:03:41.955 --> 00:03:44.123
STAFF, COMMITTEE STAFF, THE

00:03:44.190 --> 00:03:45.258
ADMINISTRATION, AND THE DMV FOR

00:03:45.325 --> 00:03:47.727
THE EXTENSIVE WORK THAT HAS

00:03:47.794 --> 00:03:50.597
GONE INTO THIS BILL, AND I'LL

00:03:50.663 --> 00:03:52.065
SAY THAT WHAT'S BEFORE YOU

00:03:52.131 --> 00:03:53.933
TODAY IS THE PRODUCT OF MONTHS

00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:56.102
OF TECHNICAL NEGOTIATIONS WITH

00:03:56.169 --> 00:03:58.171
THE DMV AND THE ADMINISTRATION

00:03:58.237 --> 00:03:59.973
TO BUILD AN IGNITION INTERLOCK

00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:02.442
DEVICE PROGRAM THAT WORKS AT

00:04:02.508 --> 00:04:05.311
STATEWIDE SCALE. FOR NEARLY TWO

00:04:05.378 --> 00:04:07.280
DECADES, COLLEAGUES HAVE WORKED

00:04:07.347 --> 00:04:09.015
TO PASS SOME VERSION VERSION OF

00:04:09.082 --> 00:04:12.118
THIS MEASURE. AND MY TEAM AND I

00:04:12.185 --> 00:04:13.987
HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THIS BILL

00:04:14.053 --> 00:04:16.522
FOR THE PAST THREE YEARS. I DO

00:04:16.589 --> 00:04:17.991
BELIEVE THAT WITH YOUR HELP AND

00:04:18.057 --> 00:04:20.093
OUR SHARED COMMITMENT TO MAKING

00:04:20.159 --> 00:04:21.728
CALIFORNIA ROADS SAFER, THIS IS

00:04:21.794 --> 00:04:24.097
THE YEAR THAT WE GET IT DONE. I

00:04:24.163 --> 00:04:25.765
AM GOING TO GO INTO A FAIR BIT

00:04:25.832 --> 00:04:26.866
OF DETAIL ABOUT THE BILL,

00:04:26.933 --> 00:04:28.601
BECAUSE I KNOW THERE'S BEEN

00:04:28.668 --> 00:04:29.702
SOME QUESTIONS AND SOME BACK

00:04:29.769 --> 00:04:31.671
AND FORTH. SO WHAT DOES THE

00:04:31.738 --> 00:04:34.874
BILL DO? SO THE BILL REPLACES

00:04:34.941 --> 00:04:37.076
THE LIMITED REPEATEDLY EXTENDED

00:04:37.143 --> 00:04:39.178
PILOT PROGRAM WITH ONE

00:04:39.245 --> 00:04:42.048
PERMANENT STATEWIDE ID IGNITION

00:04:42.115 --> 00:04:44.250
INTERLOCK DEVICE PROGRAM, WHICH

00:04:44.317 --> 00:04:45.718
CONSOLIDATES YEARS OF

00:04:45.785 --> 00:04:47.487
OVERLAPPING AND SOMETIMES

00:04:47.553 --> 00:04:49.656
CONFLICTING STATUTES INTO A

00:04:49.722 --> 00:04:51.824
SINGLE AND COHERENT FRAMEWORK.

00:04:51.891 --> 00:04:53.593
THE BILL REQUIRES AN IGNITION

00:04:53.660 --> 00:04:55.428
INTERLOCK DEVICE FOR EVERY

00:04:55.495 --> 00:04:57.930
ALCOHOL INVOLVED DUI CONVICTION,

00:04:57.997 --> 00:04:59.766
INCLUDING FIRST TIME OFFENDERS.

00:04:59.832 --> 00:05:01.834
THIS ALIGNS CALIFORNIA WITH THE

00:05:01.901 --> 00:05:03.803
POLICIES OF 35 OTHER STATES

00:05:03.870 --> 00:05:06.272
THAT ALREADY REQUIRE IDS FOR

00:05:06.339 --> 00:05:08.708
ALL CONVICTED DRUNK DRIVERS.

00:05:08.775 --> 00:05:10.877
THE BILL EXPANDS AND BETTER

00:05:10.943 --> 00:05:12.679
TARGETS CALIFORNIA'S FINANCIAL

00:05:12.745 --> 00:05:14.213
ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, ALREADY THE

00:05:14.280 --> 00:05:16.249
MOST GENEROUS IN THE NATION,

00:05:16.315 --> 00:05:17.450
BECAUSE WE WANT TO ENSURE THAT

00:05:17.517 --> 00:05:19.252
COST IS NOT A BARRIER TO

00:05:19.318 --> 00:05:20.586
COMPLIANCE. THE BILL

00:05:20.653 --> 00:05:21.688
ESTABLISHES A SEPARATE

00:05:21.754 --> 00:05:24.190
FRAMEWORK FOR DRUG ONLY DUI

00:05:24.257 --> 00:05:25.658
OFFENSES, RECOGNIZING THAT

00:05:25.725 --> 00:05:28.194
CURRENTLY AN ID CAN ONLY DETECT

00:05:28.261 --> 00:05:30.329
ALCOHOL, NOT DRUG USAGE. THE

00:05:30.396 --> 00:05:31.531
BILL CREATES A CLEAR PATHWAY

00:05:31.597 --> 00:05:33.166
FOR ALCOHOL RELATED DUI

00:05:33.232 --> 00:05:34.333
OFFENDERS TO REMAIN MOBILE FOR

00:05:34.400 --> 00:05:36.836
ALL PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL

00:05:36.903 --> 00:05:38.638
OBLIGATIONS. IT ALSO DECOUPLES

00:05:38.705 --> 00:05:40.773
THE RUNNING OF THE ID TERM FROM

00:05:40.840 --> 00:05:41.808
COMPLETION OF OTHER

00:05:41.874 --> 00:05:43.509
REINSTATEMENT REQUIREMENTS,

00:05:43.576 --> 00:05:44.744
CREATING AN IMPORTANT

00:05:44.811 --> 00:05:45.978
DISTINCTION BETWEEN FINISHING

00:05:46.045 --> 00:05:48.314
THE ID CLOCK AND ELIGIBILITY

00:05:48.381 --> 00:05:51.918
FOR FULL REINSTATEMENT IN

00:05:51.984 --> 00:05:54.787
CALIFORNIA IN 2023 ALONE,

00:05:54.854 --> 00:05:56.556
IGNITION INTERLOCK DEVICES

00:05:56.622 --> 00:05:59.125
STOPPED MORE THAN 30,000

00:05:59.192 --> 00:06:03.096
ATTEMPTS TO START A CAR, 30,000

00:06:03.162 --> 00:06:04.831
DOCUMENTED MOMENTS WHERE THIS

00:06:04.897 --> 00:06:06.699
TECHNOLOGY KEPT A DRUNK DRIVER

00:06:06.766 --> 00:06:10.303
OFF THE ROAD. WE KNOW THAT IDS

00:06:10.369 --> 00:06:12.438
WORK BECAUSE IN THE 35 STATES

00:06:12.505 --> 00:06:14.941
THAT HAVE A UNIVERSAL IGNITION

00:06:15.007 --> 00:06:17.076
INTERLOCK REQUIREMENT, WE HAVE

00:06:17.143 --> 00:06:20.346
SEEN ALCOHOL AND ALCOHOL

00:06:20.413 --> 00:06:22.515
FATALITIES AND ACCIDENTS

00:06:22.582 --> 00:06:23.716
DECLINE. AT THE SAME TIME THAT

00:06:23.783 --> 00:06:26.486
WE'VE SEEN CALIFORNIA RATES OF

00:06:26.552 --> 00:06:29.756
DUI DEATHS AND DUI ACCIDENTS

00:06:29.822 --> 00:06:31.524
INCREASE PRECIPITOUSLY.

00:06:31.591 --> 00:06:34.060
CALIFORNIA'S OWN DMV FOUND THAT

00:06:34.127 --> 00:06:37.263
IDS ARE 74% MORE EFFECTIVE THAN

00:06:37.330 --> 00:06:38.698
LICENSE SUSPENSION ALONE AT

00:06:38.765 --> 00:06:40.867
REDUCING RECIDIVISM AMONG FIRST

00:06:40.933 --> 00:06:42.668
TIME OFFENDERS IN THE FIRST SIX

00:06:42.735 --> 00:06:44.470
MONTHS AFTER CONVICTION. AND

00:06:44.537 --> 00:06:47.006
THE CDC HAS FOUND THAT IDS

00:06:47.073 --> 00:06:49.275
REDUCE REPEAT DUI OFFENSES BY

00:06:49.342 --> 00:06:52.779
SOME 70%. I'LL SAY THAT TWO

00:06:52.845 --> 00:06:54.247
ISSUES HAVE COME UP

00:06:54.313 --> 00:06:55.281
CONSISTENTLY IN SOME

00:06:55.348 --> 00:06:56.349
STAKEHOLDER CONVERSATIONS, SO I

00:06:56.415 --> 00:06:57.784
WANT TO ADDRESS BOTH OF THOSE

00:06:57.850 --> 00:06:59.752
DIRECTLY IN MY OPENING COMMENTS.

00:06:59.819 --> 00:07:02.121
THE FIRST IS RELATED TO

00:07:02.188 --> 00:07:03.923
MANUFACTURING MANUFACTURE

00:07:03.990 --> 00:07:05.024
COMPLIANCE, AND WE SPOKE ABOUT

00:07:05.091 --> 00:07:06.459
THIS AT SOME LENGTH IN THIS

00:07:06.526 --> 00:07:08.261
MORNING'S PUBLIC SAFETY HEARING.

00:07:08.327 --> 00:07:09.662
WE CERTAINLY HAVE HEARD AND

00:07:09.729 --> 00:07:10.496
TAKE SERIOUSLY CONCERNS THAT

00:07:10.563 --> 00:07:13.132
NOT EVERY CERTIFIED ID

00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:15.268
MANUFACTURER HAS CONSISTENTLY

00:07:15.334 --> 00:07:17.503
COMPLIED WITH EXISTING INCOME

00:07:17.570 --> 00:07:19.605
VERIFICATION AND REDUCED FEE

00:07:19.672 --> 00:07:20.740
REQUIREMENTS. THAT'S A REAL

00:07:20.807 --> 00:07:22.141
PROBLEM THAT WE RECOGNIZE AND

00:07:22.208 --> 00:07:24.710
WILL CONTINUE TO WORK HAND IN

00:07:24.777 --> 00:07:26.445
HAND WITH THE DMV, THE

00:07:26.512 --> 00:07:27.914
ADMINISTRATION, AND WITH YOUR

00:07:27.980 --> 00:07:30.449
COMMITTEE AND STAFF TO ENSURE

00:07:30.516 --> 00:07:32.018
THAT WE HAVE STRONG OVERSIGHT

00:07:32.084 --> 00:07:34.387
AND ENFORCEMENT RELATED TO THE

00:07:34.453 --> 00:07:35.521
MANUFACTURERS AND INSTALLERS OF

00:07:35.588 --> 00:07:37.957
THIS DEVICE AS WELL. AND THEN

00:07:38.024 --> 00:07:39.192
SECOND IS RELATED TO REPORTING

00:07:39.258 --> 00:07:41.961
AND DATA COLLECTION. THIS BILL

00:07:42.028 --> 00:07:43.329
HAS INCLUDED REPORTING

00:07:43.396 --> 00:07:45.164
REQUIREMENTS OF THE DMV

00:07:45.231 --> 00:07:46.599
LANGUAGE THAT WAS CAREFULLY

00:07:46.666 --> 00:07:47.600
NEGOTIATED, AND THAT WE

00:07:47.667 --> 00:07:50.570
CERTAINLY SUPPORT AND STAND BY.

00:07:50.636 --> 00:07:52.371
THE GOAL OF THIS MEASURE IS

00:07:52.438 --> 00:07:54.140
REALLY QUITE SIMPLE. AS I SAID,

00:07:54.207 --> 00:07:57.777
THE GOAL OF AB 1830 IS TO SAVE

00:07:57.844 --> 00:07:59.912
LIVES BEFORE THE CAR EVEN

00:07:59.979 --> 00:08:01.681
STARTS. I THINK TOGETHER WE ARE

00:08:01.747 --> 00:08:03.182
IN A POSITION TO MAKE

00:08:03.249 --> 00:08:05.017
MEANINGFUL PROGRESS, TO MAKE

00:08:05.084 --> 00:08:07.453
CALIFORNIA ROADS SAFER, AND TO

00:08:07.520 --> 00:08:08.955
PROTECT FAMILIES AND

00:08:09.021 --> 00:08:11.057
COMMUNITIES ACROSS OUR STATE.

00:08:11.123 --> 00:08:13.626
I'M REALLY HONORED TO BE JOINED

00:08:13.693 --> 00:08:16.562

APPRECIATE IT. GOOD AFTERNOON,

00:08:58.004 --> 00:09:00.072
CHAIR MEMBERS. MY NAME IS COLIN

00:09:00.139 --> 00:09:01.173
CAMPBELL, A MEMBER OF MADD'S

00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:03.676
NATIONAL BOARD OF DIRECTORS. ON

00:09:03.743 --> 00:09:05.211
JUNE 12TH, 2019, I WAS DRIVING

00:09:05.278 --> 00:09:07.246
MY FAMILY ON VACATION IN JOSHUA

00:09:07.313 --> 00:09:09.048
TREE AND A DRUNK DRIVER GOING

00:09:09.115 --> 00:09:10.516
90 MILES AN HOUR SLAMMED INTO

00:09:10.583 --> 00:09:12.685
OUR CAR. I WAS DRIVING WITH MY

00:09:12.752 --> 00:09:14.487
DAUGHTER, 17 YEAR OLD RUBY. SHE

00:09:14.553 --> 00:09:15.888
HAD JUST GOTTEN A MERIT

00:09:15.955 --> 00:09:17.423
SCHOLARSHIP TO STUDY AT THE ART

00:09:17.490 --> 00:09:19.458
INSTITUTE OF CHICAGO, AND MY 14

00:09:19.525 --> 00:09:22.028
YEAR OLD SON, HART, AND HE WAS

00:09:22.094 --> 00:09:23.429
GOING TO HAVE A WONDERFUL

00:09:23.496 --> 00:09:24.830
SUMMER DATING GIRLS AND PLAYING

00:09:24.897 --> 00:09:28.134
VIDEO GAMES. I WAS KNOCKED

00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:29.635
UNCONSCIOUS IN THE CRASH WHEN I

00:09:29.702 --> 00:09:31.304
CAME TO AND LOOKED IN THE BACK

00:09:31.370 --> 00:09:33.205
SEAT. I SAW RUBY AND HART, AND

00:09:33.272 --> 00:09:34.373
THEIR EYES WERE WIDE OPEN AND

00:09:34.440 --> 00:09:35.641
THEIR PUPILS WERE PITCH BLACK

00:09:35.708 --> 00:09:37.443
AND THEIR NECKS WERE SNAPPED

00:09:37.510 --> 00:09:40.346
AND BOTH MY CHILDREN WERE DEAD.

00:09:40.413 --> 00:09:41.781
THE WOMAN WHO KILLED MY

00:09:41.847 --> 00:09:43.783
CHILDREN DROVE DRUNK REPEATEDLY.

00:09:43.849 --> 00:09:45.751
THERE WERE SEVERAL CHANCES FOR

00:09:45.818 --> 00:09:47.920
JUDGES TO ASSIGN AN ID, BUT

00:09:47.987 --> 00:09:49.388
EVERY TIME THEY USE JUDICIAL

00:09:49.455 --> 00:09:50.890
DISCRETION AND DID NOT DO THAT.

00:09:50.957 --> 00:09:52.224
AND THAT'S WHY MY CHILDREN ARE

00:09:52.291 --> 00:09:55.227
DEAD TONIGHT. SO I HAVE BEEN

00:09:55.294 --> 00:09:57.630
THROUGH THE RESTORATIVE JUSTICE

00:09:57.697 --> 00:09:58.698
PROGRAM WITH THE WOMAN WHO

00:09:58.764 --> 00:10:00.833
KILLED MY CHILDREN. HER NAME IS

00:10:00.900 --> 00:10:03.002
NICOLE PACKER. I WENT TO PRISON.

00:10:03.069 --> 00:10:04.236
I SAT WITH HER. I TALKED WITH

00:10:04.303 --> 00:10:06.305
HER FOR 4.5 HOURS. I LEARNED

00:10:06.372 --> 00:10:08.808
ABOUT HER LIFE, I HUMANIZED HER.

00:10:08.874 --> 00:10:10.209
SHE IS A MOTHER WITH THREE

00:10:10.276 --> 00:10:13.112
YOUNG CHILDREN. SHE WAS

00:10:13.179 --> 00:10:14.113
STRUGGLING WITH ALCOHOL AND

00:10:14.180 --> 00:10:16.015
DRUG ADDICTION HER ENTIRE LIFE,

00:10:16.082 --> 00:10:17.783
AND NOW SHE HAS TO LIVE WITH

00:10:17.850 --> 00:10:19.452
THE BURDEN OF HAVING KILLED MY

00:10:19.518 --> 00:10:21.454
CHILDREN. A MOTHER WHO KILLED

00:10:21.520 --> 00:10:23.622
CHILDREN. SO IF SHE HAD HAD AN

00:10:23.689 --> 00:10:25.458
ID DEVICE, IT WOULD HAVE SAVED

00:10:25.524 --> 00:10:26.625
HER. IT WOULD HAVE SAVED HER

00:10:26.692 --> 00:10:28.094
FAMILY. SHE WOULD DO ANYTHING

00:10:28.160 --> 00:10:30.029
TO HAVE THAT DEVICE RIGHT NOW,

00:10:30.096 --> 00:10:31.831
RIGHT? BUT SHE DIDN'T. AND NOW

00:10:31.897 --> 00:10:33.099
SHE HAS TO LIVE WITH WHAT SHE'S

00:10:33.165 --> 00:10:36.068
DONE. AND SO I URGE YOU, I URGE

00:10:36.135 --> 00:10:37.803
YOU TO CONSIDER HOW IMPORTANT

00:10:37.870 --> 00:10:39.238
IT IS THAT WE DON'T HAVE

00:10:39.305 --> 00:10:40.239
JUDICIAL DISCRETION IN THIS

00:10:40.306 --> 00:10:42.408
CASE, BECAUSE WHAT ON EARTH

00:10:42.475 --> 00:10:45.211
COULD POSSIBLY ALLOW FOR

00:10:45.277 --> 00:10:47.013
SOMEONE TO SAY, IT'S OKAY THAT

00:10:47.079 --> 00:10:49.482
YOU DROVE DRUNK. WE TRUST YOU

00:10:49.548 --> 00:10:50.683
AND WE DON'T WANT TO GIVE YOU

00:10:50.750 --> 00:10:52.718
THIS, THIS BENEFIT, THIS

00:10:52.785 --> 00:10:53.819
BENEFIT THAT COULD SAVE YOUR

00:10:53.886 --> 00:10:55.254
LIFE AND THE LIVES OF OTHER

00:10:55.321 --> 00:10:57.056
PEOPLE. IT'S NOT A PUNITIVE LAW.

00:10:57.123 --> 00:10:58.724
THAT'S WHY I LOVE THIS LAW SO

00:10:58.791 --> 00:11:00.326
MUCH. IT'S NOT PUNITIVE. IT'S

00:11:00.393 --> 00:11:01.727
PROTECTIVE. IT'S PROTECTING

00:11:01.794 --> 00:11:03.396
DRUNK DRIVERS FROM DESTROYING

00:11:03.462 --> 00:11:04.630
THEIR LIVES AND OTHER PEOPLE'S

00:11:04.697 --> 00:11:06.632
LIVES. SO I URGE YOU TO TO SAY

00:11:06.699 --> 00:11:12.171
YES TO THIS BILL. THANK YOU.

00:11:12.238 --> 00:11:13.639

00:11:15.474 --> 00:11:16.642
PRESIDENT OF CALIFORNIA POLICE

00:11:16.709 --> 00:11:17.943
CHIEFS ASSOCIATION, HERE IN

00:11:18.010 --> 00:11:21.547
STRONG SUPPORT OF AB 1830. I

00:11:21.614 --> 00:11:23.349
CAN TELL YOU THAT AS A POLICE

00:11:23.416 --> 00:11:24.483
OFFICER, AS A POLICE CHIEF,

00:11:24.550 --> 00:11:25.818
I'VE HEARD MANY CONVERSATIONS

00:11:25.885 --> 00:11:28.754
LIKE THIS. I'VE ON VIEWED AND

00:11:28.821 --> 00:11:30.523
RESPONDED TO MANY PREVENTABLE

00:11:30.589 --> 00:11:31.590
COLLISIONS. AND MANY OF THOSE

00:11:31.657 --> 00:11:34.126
WERE WERE PREVENTABLE, FATAL

00:11:34.193 --> 00:11:37.730
DUI, DRIVING COLLISIONS. THEY

00:11:37.797 --> 00:11:41.300
OFTEN OCCUPY MY MIND ON CERTAIN

00:11:41.367 --> 00:11:42.535
DATES. AS A POLICE CHIEF, I'VE

00:11:42.601 --> 00:11:44.470
SAT WITH FAMILIES AND TRIED TO

00:11:44.537 --> 00:11:45.671
MAKE SOME SENSE OF IT, TO TRY

00:11:45.738 --> 00:11:47.540
TO BRING WORDS OF COMFORT. AND

00:11:47.606 --> 00:11:50.309
AS DIFFICULT AS THAT IS,

00:11:50.376 --> 00:11:51.410
NOTHING IS MORE DIFFICULT THAN

00:11:51.477 --> 00:11:52.845
IT'S WHEN IT'S CAUSED BY A

00:11:52.912 --> 00:11:55.347
REPEAT OFFENDER, BECAUSE THEN

00:11:55.414 --> 00:11:57.183
IT'S, WELL, WHERE WAS THE

00:11:57.249 --> 00:11:59.685
SYSTEM? WHERE WAS JUSTICE? AND

00:11:59.752 --> 00:12:01.520
SO WHAT WE HAVE FOUND, WHAT WE

00:12:01.587 --> 00:12:03.456
SEE IS IN CALIFORNIA, THERE'S

00:12:03.522 --> 00:12:06.192
OVER 1350 FATAL DUI COLLISIONS

00:12:06.258 --> 00:12:08.260
EACH YEAR. THAT NUMBER SEEMS TO

00:12:08.327 --> 00:12:09.829
BE GROWING. BUT THE

00:12:09.895 --> 00:12:13.399
IMPLEMENTATION OF ID WITH THE

00:12:13.466 --> 00:12:15.234
SECOND OFFENDER IS NOT IT'S NOT

00:12:15.301 --> 00:12:16.435
GOOD ENOUGH. WE NEED THAT WITH

00:12:16.502 --> 00:12:18.437
THE FIRST OFFENSE DUI DRIVING

00:12:18.504 --> 00:12:20.172
THIS BILL WILL DO JUST THAT.

00:12:20.239 --> 00:12:21.640
HAVE SOME CLARITY, SOME

00:12:21.707 --> 00:12:24.877
LANGUAGE CLEANUP. BUT JUST AS

00:12:24.944 --> 00:12:26.846
AS THE WITNESS SAID, YOU KNOW,

00:12:26.912 --> 00:12:29.882
WE CAN BRING LIFE BACK NOT ONLY

00:12:29.949 --> 00:12:31.884
TO THE LOST, BUT TO THE TO THE

00:12:31.951 --> 00:12:32.985
SUSPECT, TO THE PERSON THAT

00:12:33.052 --> 00:12:35.321
WOULD CAUSE THESE TRAGEDIES.

00:12:35.387 --> 00:12:36.755
AND SO WITH THAT, I WOULD JUST

00:12:36.822 --> 00:12:38.591
SUBMIT IN STRONG SUPPORT OF

00:12:38.657 --> 00:12:42.161

RESPECTFULLY OPPOSE THIS BILL

00:15:16.382 --> 00:15:18.751
FOR MULTIPLE REASONS. ONE OF

00:15:18.817 --> 00:15:22.254
THEM IS. WE CANNOT IGNORE THE

00:15:22.321 --> 00:15:24.156
FACT THAT THERE ARE PRIVATE

00:15:24.223 --> 00:15:25.724
VENDORS SUPPORTING THIS BILL

00:15:25.791 --> 00:15:27.059
THAT ARE WAITING TO MAKE SOME

00:15:27.126 --> 00:15:29.228
MONEY OFF OF THIS BILL. THAT IS

00:15:29.295 --> 00:15:32.031

00:15:40.039 --> 00:15:41.407
PUBLIC SAFETY IS SO IMPORTANT,

00:15:41.473 --> 00:15:42.508

00:15:42.574 --> 00:15:44.310
INTERLOCK DEVICES FREE TO BEGIN

00:15:46.912 --> 00:15:49.715
THAT'S AN OPTION WITH THIS BILL.

00:15:49.782 --> 00:15:50.783
THERE'S ALSO THIS INTERLOCK

00:15:50.849 --> 00:15:51.850
DEVICE THAT'S BEING TREATED AS

00:15:51.917 --> 00:15:54.753
A MENTAL HEALTH RESOURCE. THIS

00:15:54.820 --> 00:15:56.588
INTERLOCK DEVICE IS NOT A REHAB

00:15:56.655 --> 00:15:58.357
COUNSELOR. IT'S NOT A THERAPIST.

00:15:58.424 --> 00:16:00.159
THIS INTERLOCK DEVICE IS A

00:16:00.225 --> 00:16:02.728
MACHINE. AND IT SEEMS LIKE A

00:16:02.795 --> 00:16:05.531
LOT OF TALK HAS BEEN DONE ABOUT

00:16:05.597 --> 00:16:08.801
PEOPLE WHO COMMIT MULTIPLE DUIS.

00:16:08.867 --> 00:16:12.037
AND STATISTICS SHOW THAT ABOUT

00:16:12.104 --> 00:16:13.972
95% OF PEOPLE THAT GET CHARGED

00:16:14.039 --> 00:16:15.474
WITH A FIRST TIME DUI, THEY

00:16:15.541 --> 00:16:16.709
DON'T GET CHARGED AGAIN. AND

00:16:16.775 --> 00:16:17.976
THEN THERE'S THIS BEHAVIORAL

00:16:18.043 --> 00:16:19.578
PATTERN THAT APPEARS WITH

00:16:19.645 --> 00:16:21.480
MULTIPLE DUI CHARGES IN A

00:16:21.547 --> 00:16:22.848
PERSON'S BACKGROUND, WHICH IS

00:16:22.915 --> 00:16:24.283
RECOGNIZED IN THE DSM FIVE AS A

00:16:24.350 --> 00:16:28.253
SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER ISSUE.

00:16:28.320 --> 00:16:30.823
AND THIS LAW IS GOING TO

00:16:30.889 --> 00:16:32.925
DISPROPORTIONATELY IMPACT POOR

00:16:32.991 --> 00:16:35.494
PEOPLE. AND THIS LAW IS TAKING

00:16:35.561 --> 00:16:37.196
AWAY DISCRETION FROM A JUDGE TO

00:16:37.262 --> 00:16:39.398
BE ABLE TO BALANCE THE FACTS OF

00:16:39.465 --> 00:16:41.200
EACH CASE, TO MAKE THE

00:16:41.266 --> 00:16:41.900
DETERMINATION, IF THIS

00:16:41.967 --> 00:16:43.435
INTERLOCK DEVICE MAKES SENSE

00:16:43.502 --> 00:16:46.271
FOR THAT CASE AND IS GOING TO

00:16:46.338 --> 00:16:48.040
IMPOSE POTENTIALLY AN

00:16:48.107 --> 00:16:48.774
UNREASONABLE CONDITION ON

00:16:48.841 --> 00:16:50.008
SOMEONE WHO CANNOT AFFORD TO

00:16:50.075 --> 00:16:52.077
MEET THIS CONDITION, AND PEOPLE

00:16:52.144 --> 00:16:53.078
THAT ARE GOING TO BE IMPACTED

00:16:53.145 --> 00:16:54.780
ARE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO

00:16:54.847 --> 00:16:55.948
FOLLOW THE LAW, NOT BECAUSE

00:16:56.014 --> 00:16:57.649
THEY'RE EVIL OR BECAUSE THEY

00:16:57.716 --> 00:16:59.351
WANT TO BE DEFIANT, BUT BECAUSE

00:16:59.418 --> 00:17:00.786
THEY CANNOT AFFORD TO FOLLOW

00:17:00.853 --> 00:17:02.621
THE LAW, MAKING THEM VULNERABLE

00:17:02.688 --> 00:17:04.223
TO A REVOLVING, NEVER ENDING

00:17:04.289 --> 00:17:06.525
DOOR OF INCARCERATION. IT SEEMS

00:17:06.592 --> 00:17:09.294
THAT THIS BILL DOESN'T EVEN

00:17:09.361 --> 00:17:11.063
HONOR THE PRINCIPLE OF WHEN

00:17:11.130 --> 00:17:12.865
SOMEONE AGREEING TO BE IN

00:17:12.931 --> 00:17:14.800
CUSTODY FOR THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT

00:17:14.867 --> 00:17:16.502
OF TIME UNDER THE LAW, THAT

00:17:16.568 --> 00:17:17.903
THEY STILL HAVE TO BE PUNISHED

00:17:17.970 --> 00:17:19.738
EVEN FURTHER BY NOT BEING ABLE

00:17:19.805 --> 00:17:21.974
TO GET THEIR DRIVER'S LICENSE.

00:17:22.040 --> 00:17:23.942
AND I JUST WANT TO SAY, WRAP IT

00:17:24.009 --> 00:17:25.144
UP WITH A PERSONAL STORY OF

00:17:25.210 --> 00:17:26.945
MINE. I HAD AN INTERLOCK DEVICE

00:17:27.012 --> 00:17:29.214
IN MY CAR FOR MY FIRST DUI, AND

00:17:29.281 --> 00:17:31.150
THEN I WAS CHARGED AGAIN FOR A

00:17:31.216 --> 00:17:32.284
SECOND DUI, AND I GOT AN

00:17:32.351 --> 00:17:33.752
INTERLOCK DEVICE IN MY CAR

00:17:33.819 --> 00:17:35.888
AGAIN. BUT THE DIFFERENCE WAS

00:17:35.954 --> 00:17:37.356
THAT WITH THE SECOND TIME DUI,

00:17:37.423 --> 00:17:39.925
I ACTUALLY WENT TO REHAB AND I

00:17:39.992 --> 00:17:41.527
WAS ABLE TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE.

00:17:41.593 --> 00:17:42.928
IT WAS NOT THE INTERLOCK DEVICE

00:17:42.995 --> 00:17:44.563
THAT CHANGED THE BEHAVIORAL

00:17:44.630 --> 00:17:47.132
PATTERN, AND I HAVE NOT DONE

00:17:47.199 --> 00:17:48.567
THE SAME ACT. I'VE BEEN SOBER

00:17:48.634 --> 00:17:51.036
FOR TEN YEARS, AND THE

00:17:51.103 --> 00:17:52.137
COMMUNITY IS SAFER BECAUSE OF

00:17:52.204 --> 00:17:55.441
THAT. CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR

00:17:55.507 --> 00:17:56.508
SOBRIETY. THANK YOU. NEXT

00:17:56.575 --> 00:17:57.810
WITNESS. YEAH, THANK YOU, MR.

00:17:57.876 --> 00:17:58.944
CHAIR. MEMBERS. IGNACIO

00:17:59.011 --> 00:18:00.012
HERNANDEZ, ON BEHALF OF THE

00:18:00.078 --> 00:18:00.946
CALIFORNIA ATTORNEYS FOR

00:18:01.013 --> 00:18:02.247
CRIMINAL JUSTICE STATEWIDE

00:18:02.314 --> 00:18:03.315
ASSOCIATION OF CRIMINAL DEFENSE

00:18:03.382 --> 00:18:05.484
ATTORNEYS, WE RESPECTFULLY ARE

00:18:05.551 --> 00:18:07.653
IN OPPOSITION. A COUPLE OF

00:18:07.719 --> 00:18:09.321
THINGS. ONE IS OBVIOUSLY, I

00:18:09.388 --> 00:18:10.422
RESPECT THE AUTHOR ON QUITE A

00:18:10.489 --> 00:18:12.291
BIT, AND I'VE HAD LOTS OF

00:18:12.357 --> 00:18:13.292
CONVERSATIONS WITH THE AUTHOR'S

00:18:13.358 --> 00:18:14.493
OFFICE AND LOTS OF RESPECT FOR

00:18:14.560 --> 00:18:15.527
THE WITNESS WHO TESTIFIED

00:18:15.594 --> 00:18:17.663
EARLIER ABOUT TRAGEDY AND

00:18:17.729 --> 00:18:19.131
PUBLIC POLICY PROCESS IS MUCH

00:18:19.198 --> 00:18:20.566
BETTER WHEN THOSE THAT ARE

00:18:20.632 --> 00:18:21.700
IMPACTED CAN SHARE THEIR

00:18:21.767 --> 00:18:22.935
STORIES. SO I APPRECIATIVE OF

00:18:23.001 --> 00:18:24.670
THAT. OUR OPPOSITION IS REALLY

00:18:24.736 --> 00:18:25.971
KIND OF IN THREE CATEGORIES.

00:18:26.038 --> 00:18:29.208
NUMBER ONE, THE JUDICIAL

00:18:29.274 --> 00:18:30.676
DISCRETION PIECE THAT IS IN

00:18:30.742 --> 00:18:32.478
PLACE IN CURRENT LAW IS

00:18:32.544 --> 00:18:34.546
CRITICAL. DUI IS ONE OF THE

00:18:34.613 --> 00:18:35.614
ONLY CRIMINAL OFFENSES IN WHICH

00:18:35.681 --> 00:18:37.149
THERE IS A WIDE VARIETY OF

00:18:37.216 --> 00:18:38.951
OFFENDERS. THERE ARE THOSE WHO

00:18:39.017 --> 00:18:40.352
HAD, YOU KNOW, HALF A DRINK,

00:18:40.419 --> 00:18:42.621
TWO TO MANY TO THOSE WHO HAVE A

00:18:42.688 --> 00:18:44.356
VERY SERIOUS ALCOHOL PROBLEM

00:18:44.423 --> 00:18:45.757
AND ARE LIKELY TO BE REPEAT

00:18:45.824 --> 00:18:47.226
OFFENDERS AND EVERYBODY IN

00:18:47.292 --> 00:18:48.627
BETWEEN. SO THAT'S WHY THE

00:18:48.694 --> 00:18:50.829
JUDICIAL DISCRETION HAS BEEN SO

00:18:50.896 --> 00:18:51.930
IMPORTANT. AS WAS STATED

00:18:51.997 --> 00:18:55.901
EARLIER, ONLY WAS IT 96% OF

00:18:55.968 --> 00:18:57.669
FIRST TIME OFFENDERS DO NOT

00:18:57.736 --> 00:18:59.137
REOFFEND IN THE FIRST 12 MONTHS

00:18:59.204 --> 00:19:00.272
AFTER THEIR FIRST OFFENSE. THAT

00:19:00.339 --> 00:19:01.740
IS ACCORDING TO THE DMV, AND

00:19:01.807 --> 00:19:02.841
THAT STATISTIC HAS STAYED

00:19:02.908 --> 00:19:03.942
PRETTY MUCH THE SAME FOR THE

00:19:04.009 --> 00:19:07.379
LAST DECADE. SO WE'RE NOW BE BE

00:19:07.446 --> 00:19:08.680
REMOVING JUDICIAL DISCRETION

00:19:08.747 --> 00:19:12.384
FOR A JUDGE TO MANDATE AN ID ON

00:19:12.451 --> 00:19:15.287
90% OF 96% OF OFFENDERS WHO ARE

00:19:15.354 --> 00:19:16.955
NOT A RISK OF REOFFENDING

00:19:17.022 --> 00:19:18.290
WITHIN A YEAR. SO THAT'S WHERE

00:19:18.357 --> 00:19:20.325
WE STRUGGLE. WE BELIEVE IT'S

00:19:20.392 --> 00:19:22.895
MORE IMPACTFUL TO HAVE A MORE

00:19:22.961 --> 00:19:24.296
FOCUSED APPROACH. WE'VE OFFERED

00:19:24.363 --> 00:19:26.098
A NUMBER OF AMENDMENTS, ONE OF

00:19:26.164 --> 00:19:29.668
WHICH IS MAKING IT MANDATORY

00:19:29.735 --> 00:19:31.537
FOR A FIRST TIME OFFENDER. IF

00:19:31.603 --> 00:19:33.305
THAT DRIVER HAS A HIGH BLOOD

00:19:33.372 --> 00:19:35.440
ALCOHOL LEVEL AT THE TIME OF

00:19:35.507 --> 00:19:37.643
ARREST, AND THEY HAVE A PRIOR

00:19:37.709 --> 00:19:39.478
MOVING VIOLATION IN THE PAST 2

00:19:39.545 --> 00:19:40.979
TO 3 YEARS, STUDIES SHOW THOSE

00:19:41.046 --> 00:19:42.314
ARE THE FOLKS THAT ARE MORE

00:19:42.381 --> 00:19:44.049
LIKELY TO REOFFEND. SO IF WE

00:19:44.116 --> 00:19:45.884
WANT TO FOCUS ON THOSE, WE'RE

00:19:45.951 --> 00:19:47.686
WILLING TO, YOU KNOW, SETTLE ON

00:19:47.753 --> 00:19:49.254
SOME LANGUAGE ON THAT. IN

00:19:49.321 --> 00:19:50.589
ADDITION, I THINK WE NEED TO

00:19:50.656 --> 00:19:51.990
LOOK AT THERE IS AN OVER

00:19:52.057 --> 00:19:53.091
ENFORCEMENT IN CERTAIN

00:19:53.158 --> 00:19:55.794
COMMUNITIES. DMV STATISTICS

00:19:55.861 --> 00:19:59.164
SHOW ABOUT BETWEEN 48 AND 50%

00:19:59.231 --> 00:20:01.700
OF OF DUI ARRESTS EVERY YEAR IN

00:20:01.767 --> 00:20:03.936
CALIFORNIA. ARE LATINO DRIVERS

00:20:04.002 --> 00:20:04.970
SIGNIFICANTLY ABOVE THE

00:20:05.037 --> 00:20:06.238
POPULATION. SO WE NEED TO LOOK

00:20:06.305 --> 00:20:09.308
AT THAT. AND LASTLY, WE NEED TO

00:20:09.374 --> 00:20:10.742
INCREASE THE PENALTIES FOR

00:20:10.809 --> 00:20:12.578
THOSE MANUFACTURERS THAT ARE

00:20:12.644 --> 00:20:14.179
NOT COMPLYING WITH THE SLIDING

00:20:14.246 --> 00:20:16.114
FEE SCALE. THERE'S A LOT OF

00:20:16.181 --> 00:20:17.282
THOSE IN THE PENALTIES ARE

00:20:17.349 --> 00:20:19.418
PRETTY SMALL, AND NOBODY GETS A

00:20:19.484 --> 00:20:20.819
SUSPENSION AS A BUSINESS FOR

00:20:20.886 --> 00:20:22.554
FAILING TO COMPLY. AND SO WE

00:20:22.621 --> 00:20:23.789
NEED TO LOOK AT ALL OF THOSE

00:20:23.855 --> 00:20:25.624
TOGETHER, AND I THINK WE CAN

00:20:25.691 --> 00:20:27.559
LAND ON SOMETHING IF WE CAN DO

00:20:27.626 --> 00:20:30.495
THAT. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.

00:20:30.562 --> 00:20:32.698
WITNESSES IN OPPOSITION. YOU

00:20:32.764 --> 00:20:34.166
MAY COME FORWARD AND IDENTIFY

00:20:34.232 --> 00:20:36.268
YOURSELF AND STATE OPPOSITION.

EVERYONE. LET ME BRING IT BACK

00:21:03.495 --> 00:21:04.730
TO THE DÍAS. LET ME COMMENT

00:21:04.796 --> 00:21:08.333
FIRST, WHICH IS OUT OF ORDER

00:21:08.400 --> 00:21:09.768
COMPARED TO. WE USUALLY DO IT,

00:21:09.835 --> 00:21:12.671
BUT WE ON ONE HAND HAD A

00:21:12.738 --> 00:21:17.042
BEAUTIFUL SOBRIETY STORY IN THE

00:21:17.109 --> 00:21:18.410
CONTEXT OF WHAT'S YOUR STORY?

00:21:18.477 --> 00:21:19.845
THANK YOU FOR SHARING THAT. AND

00:21:19.911 --> 00:21:24.883
WE HAVE, YOU KNOW, PROBABLY.

00:21:24.950 --> 00:21:26.685
THE WORST TRAGEDY THAT WE'VE

00:21:26.752 --> 00:21:28.120
WE'VE HEARD TESTIMONY ON IN

00:21:28.186 --> 00:21:29.621
THIS COMMITTEE SINCE I'VE BEEN

00:21:29.688 --> 00:21:31.723
CHAIR AND WE'VE HEARD SOME VERY

00:21:31.790 --> 00:21:34.526
TRAGIC CONSEQUENCES TO A NUMBER

00:21:34.593 --> 00:21:36.828
OF THINGS IN THE WORLD OF

00:21:36.895 --> 00:21:37.896
TRANSPORTATION. SO I WANT TO

00:21:37.963 --> 00:21:40.032
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT WANT TO

00:21:40.098 --> 00:21:45.404
ACKNOWLEDGE OTHERS WHO ARE

00:21:45.470 --> 00:21:46.505
MONITORING, YOU KNOW, THE

00:21:46.571 --> 00:21:48.006
PROCEEDINGS HERE TODAY OR IN

THE LEGISLATORS IN THE ROOM,

00:21:54.880 --> 00:21:55.914
INCLUDING THE AUTHOR, AS I

00:21:55.981 --> 00:21:57.315

PUBLIC SAFETY. I WANT TO

00:22:00.218 --> 00:22:01.586
ACKNOWLEDGE ALL THAT. I WANT TO

00:22:01.653 --> 00:22:06.324
MAKE IT VERY CLEAR THAT I'M.

00:22:06.391 --> 00:22:08.460
THERE'S SOMETHING THAT THE

00:22:08.527 --> 00:22:10.295
OPPOSITION IS AFTER THAT'S VERY

00:22:10.362 --> 00:22:11.730
COMPELLING TO ME. THERE'S OTHER

00:22:11.797 --> 00:22:13.832
THINGS THAT I'M WILLING TO BE A

00:22:13.899 --> 00:22:14.966
LOT MORE AGGRESSIVE ABOUT IN

00:22:15.033 --> 00:22:17.135
TERMS OF SUPPORTING LEGISLATION.

00:22:17.202 --> 00:22:19.304
AND MAYBE IF MY CONCERNS ARE

00:22:19.371 --> 00:22:20.706
RESOLVED BY THE TIME IT GETS TO

00:22:20.772 --> 00:22:21.807
THE FLOOR, I COULD BE

00:22:21.873 --> 00:22:25.010
SUPPORTIVE. YOU KNOW, I'M

00:22:25.077 --> 00:22:26.812
CERTAINLY WILLING TO DO THAT.

00:22:26.878 --> 00:22:29.748
BUT COMING INTO THIS HEARING,

00:22:29.815 --> 00:22:31.216
DESPITE THE FACT THAT I KNOW

00:22:31.283 --> 00:22:32.951
THE COAUTHORS WELL, ONE OF THEM

00:22:33.018 --> 00:22:34.352
IS MY SEATMATE. WE TALK ABOUT

00:22:34.419 --> 00:22:37.255
THIS ISSUE REGULARLY. I

00:22:37.322 --> 00:22:40.192
MENTIONED THE SENATOR ARCHULETA

00:22:40.258 --> 00:22:42.360
WEEKS AGO, WELL BEFORE THE JULY

00:22:42.427 --> 00:22:43.762
RECESS, THAT I HAD A CONCERN

00:22:43.829 --> 00:22:45.464
ABOUT DUE PROCESS. AND I WANT

00:22:45.530 --> 00:22:48.133
TO BE CLEAR ABOUT THAT. I HAVE

00:22:48.200 --> 00:22:49.301
ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT IN MY MIND

00:22:49.367 --> 00:22:51.136
THAT ANYTHING THAT WE DO WITH

00:22:51.203 --> 00:22:52.370
ID NEEDS TO BE UNIVERSAL. IT

00:22:52.437 --> 00:22:54.306
NEEDS TO BE IN ALL 58 COUNTIES,

00:22:54.372 --> 00:22:57.042
AND THERE NEEDS TO BE A LACK OF

00:22:57.109 --> 00:22:59.211
DISCRETION IN TERMS OF COUNTIES

00:22:59.277 --> 00:23:02.481
ENFORCING STATE LAW. AND I

00:23:02.547 --> 00:23:03.648
COMMEND THE AUTHOR FOR TRYING

00:23:03.715 --> 00:23:06.084
TO CREATE SOME KIND OF A

00:23:06.151 --> 00:23:08.286
UNIFORM STANDARD HERE. CLEARLY,

00:23:08.353 --> 00:23:10.722
THAT'S NEEDED. WHEN WE RAN

00:23:10.789 --> 00:23:12.524
INFORMATIONAL HEARINGS WITH THE

00:23:12.591 --> 00:23:15.060
PUBLIC SAFETY CHAIR, SENATOR

00:23:15.127 --> 00:23:17.529
ERIC KEEN, HERE IN THIS ROOM

00:23:17.596 --> 00:23:19.331
NOT SO LONG AGO, IT WAS VERY

00:23:19.397 --> 00:23:21.900
CLEAR THAT WE NEED WE NEED

00:23:21.967 --> 00:23:26.204
ACTION. WE NEED CHANGES. AND

00:23:26.271 --> 00:23:28.039
FRANKLY, SOME OF THOSE CHANGES

00:23:28.106 --> 00:23:30.108
PERHAPS ARE NEEDED WITH OUR OWN

00:23:30.175 --> 00:23:33.044
AGENCIES HERE, INCLUDING DMV.

00:23:33.111 --> 00:23:36.014
BUT LET ME PULL BACK TO IF I

00:23:36.081 --> 00:23:37.149
THINK ALL THOSE THINGS, THEN

00:23:37.215 --> 00:23:40.585
WHY WOULDN'T I BE AN AYE VOTE?

00:23:40.652 --> 00:23:44.222
MY CONCERN IS IS WRAPPED UP IN

00:23:44.289 --> 00:23:48.527
A ONE SENTENCE AMENDMENT. I

00:23:48.593 --> 00:23:51.863
ASKED FOR YESTERDAY AND IT WAS

00:23:51.930 --> 00:23:54.966
NOT AGREED TO. AUTHOR DOESN'T

00:23:55.033 --> 00:23:56.501
WANT TO GO THERE. EVIDENTLY

00:23:56.568 --> 00:23:57.936
SPONSORS DON'T WANT TO GO THERE.

00:23:58.003 --> 00:23:59.838
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE CAUSE OF

00:23:59.905 --> 00:24:02.207
THE RESISTANCE IS, BUT THAT

00:24:02.274 --> 00:24:04.709
THAT SENTENCE SAYS WHERE

00:24:04.776 --> 00:24:07.612
THERE'S A JUDICIAL FINDING OF

00:24:07.679 --> 00:24:09.781
EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCES,

00:24:09.848 --> 00:24:13.018
AND I'D CERTAINLY BE OPEN TO

00:24:13.084 --> 00:24:14.586
WHAT THAT WORD MEANS. I THINK

00:24:14.653 --> 00:24:16.855
OF IT AS EXIGENT CIRCUMSTANCES

00:24:16.922 --> 00:24:18.023
WHERE THERE'S A JUDICIAL

00:24:18.089 --> 00:24:19.791
FINDING, THEN THE JUDGE SHALL

00:24:19.858 --> 00:24:20.926
HAVE DISCRETION AS TO WHETHER

00:24:20.992 --> 00:24:24.162
TO TO IMPLEMENT THE ID, MEANING

00:24:24.229 --> 00:24:27.732
THE JUDGE HAS TO IN IN COURT

00:24:27.799 --> 00:24:29.935
INDICATE WHAT THE FINDING IS

00:24:30.001 --> 00:24:31.403
AND WHY IT'S SO COMPELLING THAT

00:24:31.469 --> 00:24:33.305
YOU WOULD NOT, ON A FIRST TIME

00:24:33.371 --> 00:24:36.808
OFFENDER, APPLY AN ID

00:24:36.875 --> 00:24:37.876
REQUIREMENT AS PART OF

00:24:37.943 --> 00:24:39.411
SENTENCING. IF WE DON'T ALLOW

00:24:39.477 --> 00:24:41.046
THAT IN THE BILL, IT CAN NEVER

00:24:41.112 --> 00:24:42.914
HAPPEN. IT COULD NEVER BE

00:24:42.981 --> 00:24:44.249
ARGUED. YOU COULD BE IN THE

00:24:44.316 --> 00:24:46.518
MIDDLE OF A 7.0 EARTHQUAKE, AND

00:24:46.585 --> 00:24:47.686
SOMEBODY CAN TAKE OFF IN THEIR

00:24:47.752 --> 00:24:49.521
CAR WITH TWO DRINKS UNDER THEIR

00:24:49.588 --> 00:24:50.589
BELT TO RESCUE SOMEBODY ELSE,

00:24:50.655 --> 00:24:52.490
AND THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE AN ID,

00:24:52.557 --> 00:24:53.558
BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THE LAW

00:24:53.625 --> 00:24:54.726
SAYS. THERE'S NO EXCLUSION FOR

00:24:54.793 --> 00:24:56.561
ANY KIND OF EXIGENT

00:24:56.628 --> 00:24:57.829
CIRCUMSTANCE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT

00:24:57.896 --> 00:24:59.798
ALL THE CIRCUMSTANCES ARE. I

00:24:59.865 --> 00:25:02.000
KNOW THAT I WOULD MAKE A CHOICE

00:25:02.067 --> 00:25:04.035
IN MY SITUATION IF IT CAME DOWN

00:25:04.102 --> 00:25:06.338
TO SAVING A LIFE, NOT KILLING

00:25:06.404 --> 00:25:08.106
SOMEBODY AS WE JUST HEARD ABOUT,

00:25:08.173 --> 00:25:12.410
BUT SAVING A LIFE. PERHAPS

00:25:12.477 --> 00:25:14.246
SOMEBODY IN LABOR WHO IS

00:25:14.312 --> 00:25:15.046
PREMATURE OR SOMETHING LIKE

00:25:15.113 --> 00:25:17.849
THAT. I WOULD MOVE INTO MY

00:25:17.916 --> 00:25:20.018
VEHICLE IF I FELT THAT I WAS

00:25:20.085 --> 00:25:21.453
COMPETENT TO DRIVE. THAT'S ME.

00:25:21.519 --> 00:25:24.689
AND I WOULD EXPECT MY DEFENSE

00:25:24.756 --> 00:25:26.791
ATTORNEY TO AT LEAST MAKE THAT

00:25:26.858 --> 00:25:28.660
ARGUMENT TO AT LEAST MAKE THAT

00:25:28.727 --> 00:25:30.395
ARGUMENT TO THE JUDGE. AND THIS

00:25:30.462 --> 00:25:32.564
BILL FORECLOSES ANY ATTORNEY

00:25:32.631 --> 00:25:35.767
FROM EVEN MAKING A

00:25:35.834 --> 00:25:37.269
REPRESENTATIVE ARGUMENT AS TO

00:25:37.335 --> 00:25:40.171
WHAT WHAT THESE EXTRAORDINARY

00:25:40.238 --> 00:25:41.206
CIRCUMSTANCES, CIRCUMSTANCES

00:25:41.273 --> 00:25:43.375
ARE. I'M NOT SURE IF THAT

00:25:43.441 --> 00:25:46.311
ARGUMENT IS MADE. IF IN A

00:25:46.378 --> 00:25:47.679
THOUSAND, A THOUSAND TIMES, IF

00:25:47.746 --> 00:25:49.314
YOU GET A DIFFERENT OUTCOME IN

00:25:49.381 --> 00:25:51.983
ANY OF THOSE CASES. BUT MY

00:25:52.050 --> 00:25:54.219
SENSE OF JUSTICE AS AN ATTORNEY

00:25:54.286 --> 00:25:56.388
IS THAT YOU NEED TO ALLOW THAT

00:25:56.454 --> 00:25:57.856
ARGUMENT TO BE MADE IN COURT

00:25:57.923 --> 00:25:59.925
AND THEN A JUDGE, AND IT HAS TO

00:25:59.991 --> 00:26:02.093
BE IT HAS TO BE REAL. A JUDGE

00:26:02.160 --> 00:26:03.929
HAS TO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO

00:26:03.995 --> 00:26:08.667
SAY, YOU KNOW. THIS IS THE 1 IN

00:26:08.733 --> 00:26:14.306
1000 CIRCUMSTANCES THAT. WE'RE

00:26:14.372 --> 00:26:15.807
GOING TO TAKE A DIFFERENT PATH.

00:26:15.874 --> 00:26:19.010
WE HAVE A FACTUAL DUI JUDGE

00:26:19.077 --> 00:26:21.913
CAN'T CHANGE THAT. IT'S A 0.08.

00:26:21.980 --> 00:26:24.416
IT'S A DUI. BUT IF YOU DON'T

00:26:24.482 --> 00:26:27.485
HAVE SOME ABILITY ON SENTENCING

00:26:27.552 --> 00:26:30.522
TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT EXIGENT

00:26:30.588 --> 00:26:31.990
CIRCUMSTANCES, EXTRAORDINARY

00:26:32.057 --> 00:26:33.792
CIRCUMSTANCES, THEN IT DOESN'T

00:26:33.858 --> 00:26:37.028
MATTER IF IT'S MY CHILD OR

00:26:37.095 --> 00:26:41.333
YOURS OR A RECENT GRADUATE FROM

00:26:41.399 --> 00:26:42.968
WEST POINT WHO JUST HAPPENED TO

00:26:43.034 --> 00:26:46.004
GO TO A PARTY AND TAKE OFF AND

00:26:46.071 --> 00:26:47.539
BE RIGHT ON THE EDGE. I DON'T

00:26:47.605 --> 00:26:49.140
KNOW IF THE JUDGE WANTS TO TAKE

00:26:49.207 --> 00:26:52.143
THAT INTO ACCOUNT, BUT I WOULD

00:26:52.210 --> 00:26:55.747
DEFEND AND ARGUE ALL DAY LONG

00:26:55.814 --> 00:26:57.549
THAT THAT THAT DEFENDANT'S

00:26:57.615 --> 00:26:59.017
ATTORNEY HAS THE RIGHT TO MAKE

00:26:59.084 --> 00:27:01.152
THAT ARGUMENT, THAT THIS WAS AN

00:27:01.219 --> 00:27:02.954
EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCE. AND

00:27:03.021 --> 00:27:04.389
WE JUST HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO

00:27:04.456 --> 00:27:07.659
GET THAT IN THE BILL. AND IT'S

00:27:07.726 --> 00:27:09.060
IT'S A COMPELLING ENOUGH

00:27:09.127 --> 00:27:10.195
CONCERN FOR ME, AS YOU CAN

00:27:10.261 --> 00:27:12.063
PROBABLY TELL BY THE WAY I'M

00:27:12.130 --> 00:27:13.264
TALKING ABOUT IT AND THE AMOUNT

00:27:13.331 --> 00:27:14.432
OF TIME I'M SPENDING TALKING

00:27:14.499 --> 00:27:18.403
ABOUT IT. WHICH IS UNLIKE ME AS

00:27:18.470 --> 00:27:19.904
THE CHAIR OF THIS COMMITTEE,

00:27:19.971 --> 00:27:21.740
THAT IT'S IT'S A DEEP CONCERN

00:27:21.806 --> 00:27:22.841
FOR ME. IT'S A DEEP ENOUGH

00:27:22.907 --> 00:27:25.610
CONCERN FOR ME THAT I HAVE TO

00:27:25.677 --> 00:27:29.247
CAST A NO VOTE FOR NOW. AND I

00:27:29.314 --> 00:27:30.849
THINK THAT IN AND OF ITSELF

00:27:30.915 --> 00:27:31.983
WILL ENSURE THAT WE HAVE A

00:27:32.050 --> 00:27:33.852
FLOOR DEBATE IF THE BILL GETS

00:27:33.918 --> 00:27:36.154
THERE. AND AND PERHAPS, YOU

00:27:36.221 --> 00:27:37.422
KNOW, THINGS ARE DIFFERENT IN

00:27:37.489 --> 00:27:39.324
THE BILL BY THE TIME WE GET TO

00:27:39.391 --> 00:27:41.159
THE FLOOR. BUT THAT'S WHERE I'M

00:27:41.226 --> 00:27:43.261
AT, AND I APOLOGIZE TO MY

00:27:43.328 --> 00:27:44.729
COMMITTEE COLLEAGUES,

00:27:44.796 --> 00:27:46.097
ESPECIALLY SENATOR ARCHULETA,

00:27:46.164 --> 00:27:48.666
WHO'S GOT PROBABLY MORE

00:27:48.733 --> 00:27:50.035
COMPELLING THINGS TO SAY THAN I

00:27:50.101 --> 00:27:53.071
COULD EVER SAY FOR SPEAKING

00:27:53.138 --> 00:27:54.272
FIRST AND KIND OF PREEMPTING

00:27:54.339 --> 00:27:55.540
THE CONVERSATION IN THAT SENSE.

00:27:55.607 --> 00:27:56.941
BUT I'M NOT PREEMPTING THE

00:27:57.008 --> 00:27:58.376
CONVERSATION. YOU ALL HAVE YOUR

00:27:58.443 --> 00:27:59.444
OPPORTUNITY NOW TO SPEAK, AND

00:27:59.511 --> 00:28:02.347
I'LL TAKE I ASK FOR A QUORUM

00:28:02.414 --> 00:28:04.382
CALL. DO WE HAVE A QUORUM HERE?

00:28:04.449 --> 00:28:06.017
THANK YOU. VICE CHAIR, QUORUM.

00:28:06.084 --> 00:28:08.420
AND THEN, YEAH, I JUST WANT TO

00:28:08.486 --> 00:28:09.587
MAKE SURE WE HAVE SENATORS

00:28:09.654 --> 00:28:11.723
CORTEZ HERE. CORTEZ HERE.

00:28:11.790 --> 00:28:12.791
STRICKLAND. STRICKLAND HERE.

00:28:12.857 --> 00:28:14.626
ARCHULETA. ARCHULETA HERE.

00:28:14.692 --> 00:28:16.728
ARAGON. HERE. BLAKE. SPEAR.

00:28:16.795 --> 00:28:18.930
DALI. GONZALEZ. GRAYSON.

00:28:18.997 --> 00:28:20.698
GRAYSON. HERE. MENGIBAR.

00:28:20.765 --> 00:28:22.133
RICHARDSON. RICHARDSON HERE.

00:28:22.200 --> 00:28:23.935
SERRATO. VALLADARES. WIENER

00:28:24.002 --> 00:28:27.605
PRESENT. WIENER. HERE. OKAY.

00:28:27.672 --> 00:28:29.808
THANK YOU. WITH A QUORUM, WE'RE

00:28:29.874 --> 00:28:31.543
GOING TO MOVE TO SENATOR

00:28:31.609 --> 00:28:34.212
ARCHULETA NEXT. THANK YOU, MR.

00:28:34.279 --> 00:28:37.415
CHAIR, FOR ALLOWING US TO

00:28:37.482 --> 00:28:40.185
LISTEN INTENSELY. WE I'M SURE

00:28:40.251 --> 00:28:41.820
WE ALL DID IN THE AUDIENCE, ALL

00:28:41.886 --> 00:28:45.090
OF US. WHEN YOU SAID YOU WOULD

00:28:45.156 --> 00:28:47.559
NOT BE ABLE TO SUPPORT THE BILL,

00:28:47.625 --> 00:28:50.028
I RESPECT THAT. I RESPECT YOUR

00:28:50.095 --> 00:28:52.931
OPINION. BUT AS WE TALKED ABOUT,

00:28:52.997 --> 00:28:56.167
AN INDIVIDUAL WHO YOU SAID

00:28:56.234 --> 00:28:57.302
YOU'VE GOT TO FIGHT FOR HIM

00:28:57.368 --> 00:28:59.370
BECAUSE HE SHOULD BE GIVEN AN

00:28:59.437 --> 00:29:01.439
OPPORTUNITY. I THINK THAT IT

00:29:01.506 --> 00:29:03.241
MAKES IT SOUND, WITH ALL DUE

00:29:03.308 --> 00:29:05.743
RESPECT, LIKE WE WERE GOING TO

00:29:05.810 --> 00:29:07.545
HANG THAT INDIVIDUAL BY HIS

00:29:07.612 --> 00:29:10.181
THUMBS IN THE NEXT ROOM FOR 48

00:29:10.248 --> 00:29:11.916
HOURS, OR WE WERE GOING TO

00:29:11.983 --> 00:29:13.251
INCARCERATE HIM FOR THE NEXT

00:29:13.318 --> 00:29:15.520
TEN YEARS IMMEDIATELY, OR WE

00:29:15.587 --> 00:29:18.723
WERE GOING TO REMOVE HIM FROM

00:29:18.790 --> 00:29:20.892
SOCIETY AND HIS FAMILY, FOR

00:29:20.959 --> 00:29:23.428
GOD'S SAKES, THAT IT SOUNDS SO

00:29:23.495 --> 00:29:25.930
PUNITIVE. BUT THIS BILL IS NOT

00:29:25.997 --> 00:29:27.732
PUNITIVE. IT IS PREVENTATIVE.

00:29:27.799 --> 00:29:31.336
IT IS AN AWAKENING HERE IN

00:29:31.402 --> 00:29:32.770
CALIFORNIA, LIKE THE OTHER 30

00:29:32.837 --> 00:29:35.006
STATES IN THIS NATION THAT HAS

00:29:35.073 --> 00:29:37.509
A BILL JUST LIKE THIS SENATE

00:29:37.575 --> 00:29:40.311
BILL. AB, I'M SORRY, NOT

00:29:40.378 --> 00:29:43.515
SENATOR. ASSEMBLY BILL 1830

00:29:43.581 --> 00:29:45.750
ADDRESSES AN ISSUE. AN ISSUE IS

00:29:45.817 --> 00:29:47.886
HOW CAN WE PREVENT PEOPLE FROM

00:29:47.952 --> 00:29:50.021
GOING AND GETTING BEHIND THAT

00:29:50.088 --> 00:29:51.489
WHEEL THE SECOND OR THIRD TIME,

00:29:51.556 --> 00:29:52.957
WHATEVER IT MIGHT BE, AND

00:29:53.024 --> 00:29:54.759
BRINGING AWARENESS TO THE

00:29:54.826 --> 00:29:56.928
JUDGES THAT THEY HAVE THE

00:29:56.995 --> 00:29:59.397
OPPORTUNITY NOW TO SAVE LIVES.

00:29:59.464 --> 00:30:01.933
NOW, I CONGRATULATE YOU FOR

00:30:02.000 --> 00:30:03.735
COMING FORWARD AS A DEFENSE

00:30:03.801 --> 00:30:05.904
ATTORNEY AND REALIZING THAT

00:30:05.970 --> 00:30:07.305
SOCIETY HAS PROTECT YOU. BUT AS

00:30:07.372 --> 00:30:09.507
WE CHEER YOU FOR WHAT YOU'VE

00:30:09.574 --> 00:30:11.676
DONE, WELL, LET'S CHEER THE

00:30:11.743 --> 00:30:13.111
FAMILY THAT ARE STILL BEING

00:30:13.178 --> 00:30:15.280
ABLE TO WALK EVERY SINGLE DAY,

00:30:15.346 --> 00:30:17.215
CHEER MY FAMILY BECAUSE THEY'RE

00:30:17.282 --> 00:30:19.250
ABLE TO GET UP AND GO TO WORK

00:30:19.317 --> 00:30:21.052
EVERY SINGLE DAY. AFTER LOSING

00:30:21.119 --> 00:30:23.154
MY GRANDDAUGHTER, 30 YEARS OLD,

00:30:23.221 --> 00:30:24.822
WITH A MASTER'S AND A WHOLE

00:30:24.889 --> 00:30:26.024
LIFE AHEAD OF HER, AND THAT

00:30:26.090 --> 00:30:28.560
DURING THAT TERRIBLE TRAGEDY ON

00:30:28.626 --> 00:30:30.328
CHRISTMAS EVE, THEY COULD ONLY

00:30:30.395 --> 00:30:31.829
IDENTIFY HER BY HER

00:30:31.896 --> 00:30:34.032
FINGERPRINTS. AND THAT MAN WAS

00:30:34.098 --> 00:30:36.234
ABLE TO WALK. WHY? BECAUSE IT

00:30:36.301 --> 00:30:37.969
WAS HIS SECOND TIME, AND THERE

00:30:38.036 --> 00:30:41.873
WAS NO APPARATUS OF ANY KIND TO

00:30:41.940 --> 00:30:43.708
DETER HIM FROM DRIVING. WELL,

00:30:43.775 --> 00:30:45.810
NOW, THE IGNITION INTERLOCK

00:30:45.877 --> 00:30:48.379
DEVICE IS HERE. IT'S TECHNOLOGY,

00:30:48.446 --> 00:30:50.315
AND IT IS NOT PUNITIVE. AND WE

00:30:50.381 --> 00:30:52.083
TALK ABOUT THE COST. I THINK

00:30:52.150 --> 00:30:55.653
THE COST IS $65 A YEAR OR $65

00:30:55.720 --> 00:30:57.889
FOR A HALF A YEAR. WELL, THAT'S

00:30:57.956 --> 00:31:00.658
A COUPLE OF PACKS OF CIGARETTES,

00:31:00.725 --> 00:31:01.826
$65. MAYBE THAT'S A CASE OF

00:31:01.893 --> 00:31:03.795
BEER, I DON'T KNOW. BUT I WILL

00:31:03.861 --> 00:31:06.731
TELL YOU, IT IS NOT SO

00:31:06.798 --> 00:31:08.166
DETRIMENTAL THAT SOMEONE

00:31:08.233 --> 00:31:09.634
COULDN'T FIGURE IT OUT. AND

00:31:09.701 --> 00:31:11.402
THERE IS SUBSIDIES OUT THERE.

00:31:11.469 --> 00:31:13.104
THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES THAT

00:31:13.171 --> 00:31:15.139
YOU REPRESENT, THERE ARE MONIES

00:31:15.206 --> 00:31:17.008
OUT THERE FOR THOSE THAT SAY, I

00:31:17.075 --> 00:31:18.743
CAN'T AFFORD IT, AND ANYONE

00:31:18.810 --> 00:31:20.078
WHO'S NOT WORKING, AS YOU

00:31:20.144 --> 00:31:23.281
MENTIONED, ED, GREAT CALIFORNIA

00:31:23.348 --> 00:31:25.450
AGENCY THAT PROVIDES

00:31:25.516 --> 00:31:26.918
OPPORTUNITIES FOR EMPLOYMENT.

00:31:26.985 --> 00:31:29.020
THERE ARE WAYS TO PUT PEOPLE TO

00:31:29.087 --> 00:31:31.289
WORK, TO PUT PEOPLE ON THE PATH

00:31:31.356 --> 00:31:33.925
OF RECOVERY, AND TO ALLOW THEM

00:31:33.992 --> 00:31:37.662
TO UNDERSTAND THAT. MR.

00:31:37.729 --> 00:31:40.198
CAMPBELL JUST LOST HIS TWO

00:31:40.265 --> 00:31:42.700
CHILDREN. I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE

00:31:42.767 --> 00:31:45.670
THAT WHAT I SAW IN COMBAT AS A

00:31:45.737 --> 00:31:47.038
FORMER PARATROOPER WITH THE

00:31:47.105 --> 00:31:48.873
82ND AIRBORNE, THAT WAS ONE

00:31:48.940 --> 00:31:51.142
THING WE VOLUNTEERED TO DO THAT

00:31:51.209 --> 00:31:52.477
WHEN I SERVED IN THE MONTEBELLO

00:31:52.543 --> 00:31:53.911
POLICE DEPARTMENT, WE

00:31:53.978 --> 00:31:55.380
VOLUNTEERED TO SERVE IN LAW

00:31:55.446 --> 00:31:56.381
ENFORCEMENT. THE LAW

00:31:56.447 --> 00:31:57.548
ENFORCEMENT IS OUT THERE IN THE

00:31:57.615 --> 00:31:58.916
COMMUNITY THE HIGHWAY PATROL,

00:31:58.983 --> 00:32:02.186
THE FIRE, THE CHIEFS, THE FIRST

00:32:02.253 --> 00:32:03.388
RESPONDERS, OUR FIRE CHIEFS,

00:32:03.454 --> 00:32:05.757
OUR POLICE OFFICERS ACROSS THE

00:32:05.823 --> 00:32:08.993
NATION, INSURANCE, DOCTORS,

00:32:09.060 --> 00:32:11.195
CLINICS, HOSPITALS THEY WOULD

00:32:11.262 --> 00:32:12.630
ALL SAVE MONEY. THE ENTIRE

00:32:12.697 --> 00:32:14.399
STATE WOULD SAVE MONEY IF WE

00:32:14.465 --> 00:32:16.567
COULD CURTAIL THE DRUNK DRIVER.

00:32:16.634 --> 00:32:18.770
SO THIS BILL JUST OPENING UP

00:32:18.836 --> 00:32:22.040
THE DOOR FOR REHABILITATION, IT

00:32:22.106 --> 00:32:24.175
WILL OPEN UP THE DOOR FOR

00:32:24.242 --> 00:32:24.842
AWARENESS. AND IT WILL

00:32:24.909 --> 00:32:26.311
CERTAINLY MAYBE SAVE A LIFE OR

00:32:26.377 --> 00:32:28.079
TWO EVERY SINGLE HOUR, BECAUSE

00:32:28.146 --> 00:32:29.814
EVERY SINGLE HOUR OF THE DAY

00:32:29.881 --> 00:32:30.815
SOMEBODY IS DRINKING AND

00:32:30.882 --> 00:32:32.083
DRIVING. MAYBE THEY'RE NOT ALL

00:32:32.150 --> 00:32:33.518
CAUGHT, BUT THEY'RE DRINKING

00:32:33.584 --> 00:32:34.619
AND DRIVING AND THEY'RE GOING

00:32:34.686 --> 00:32:37.121
TO KILL SOMEBODY. THIS BILL IS

00:32:37.188 --> 00:32:38.456
SUPPORTED BY EVERYONE THAT I

00:32:38.523 --> 00:32:40.291
KNOW OF, AND I'M CERTAINLY

00:32:40.358 --> 00:32:42.126
SUPPORTIVE. SO, MR. CHAIR, I'M

00:32:42.193 --> 00:32:44.295

00:32:44.362 --> 00:32:46.097
TODAY AND THE SUPPORT THAT I'M

00:32:46.164 --> 00:32:48.032
HOPING THAT YOU REALIZE WILL

00:32:48.099 --> 00:32:49.400
TAKE IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL.

00:32:49.467 --> 00:32:50.935
LET'S PUT THIS BEFORE THE

00:32:51.002 --> 00:32:52.070
VOTERS. LET'S PUT THIS BEFORE

00:32:52.136 --> 00:32:53.271
THE VOTERS AND BEFORE THE

00:32:53.338 --> 00:32:55.406
GOVERNOR'S DESK. AND I REALLY

00:32:55.473 --> 00:32:59.043
THINK THAT AB 1830 SHOULD BE

00:32:59.110 --> 00:33:01.913
GOING FORWARD. AND I THANK MY

00:33:01.979 --> 00:33:04.415
COAUTHOR AND ALL OF THOSE THAT

00:33:04.482 --> 00:33:05.817
SUPPORT OUR CHILDREN. THEY'RE

00:33:05.883 --> 00:33:07.085
ALL GOING BACK TO SCHOOL NEXT

00:33:07.151 --> 00:33:09.487
FEW DAYS. I HAVE TEN

00:33:09.554 --> 00:33:10.922
GRANDCHILDREN ALL GOING BACK TO

00:33:10.988 --> 00:33:13.024
SCHOOL. WELL, WOULDN'T BE LOST

00:33:13.091 --> 00:33:15.360
AGAIN, I DON'T KNOW. BUT I WILL

00:33:15.426 --> 00:33:17.128
TELL YOU, THERE IS NOTHING THAT

00:33:17.195 --> 00:33:18.830
YOU CAN SAY THAT WILL CHANGE MY

00:33:18.896 --> 00:33:20.264
MIND. BUT I THINK THERE IS

00:33:20.331 --> 00:33:22.066
SOMETHING THAT COULD BE SAID TO

00:33:22.133 --> 00:33:23.901
CHANGE YOUR MIND, MR. CHAIR,

00:33:23.968 --> 00:33:26.037
BECAUSE FACTS AND DATA AND

00:33:26.104 --> 00:33:27.805
PROOF. HOW MANY MORE BODIES DO

00:33:27.872 --> 00:33:29.674
WE HAVE TO LAY ON THE TABLE TO

00:33:29.741 --> 00:33:31.008
REALIZE WE'VE GOT TO DO

00:33:31.075 --> 00:33:33.344
SOMETHING? MR. CAMPBELL, YOURS

00:33:33.411 --> 00:33:35.446
ARE TOO MANY. YOUR ANGELS ARE

00:33:35.513 --> 00:33:37.915
IN HEAVEN RIGHT NOW. BUT I

00:33:37.982 --> 00:33:39.684
DON'T KNOW HOW YOU SURVIVE.

00:33:39.751 --> 00:33:41.486
EVERY SINGLE DAY, EVERY

00:33:41.552 --> 00:33:43.654
CHRISTMAS, EVERY HOLIDAY,

00:33:43.721 --> 00:33:45.089
THERE'S A PLATE AT THE TABLE

00:33:45.156 --> 00:33:49.060
AND THE ARCHULETA HOME FOR MY

00:33:49.127 --> 00:33:50.128
GRANDDAUGHTER. AND I BET YOU

00:33:50.194 --> 00:33:51.596
YOU'VE GOT TWO AT YOUR TABLE,

00:33:51.662 --> 00:33:53.364
TOO. YOU THINK ABOUT THAT,

00:33:53.431 --> 00:33:54.799
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN. YOU THINK

00:33:54.866 --> 00:33:56.000
ABOUT WHAT CALIFORNIA IS TRYING

00:33:56.067 --> 00:33:57.802
TO PUT ACROSS TODAY. WE'RE

00:33:57.869 --> 00:33:59.537
TRYING TO SAVE LIVES. HELP US

00:33:59.604 --> 00:34:02.039
DO THAT. SO WITH THAT, I URGE

00:34:02.106 --> 00:34:03.241
EVERYONE TO SUPPORT THIS BILL.

00:34:03.307 --> 00:34:05.143
AND I THANK YOU FOR THE TIME,

00:34:05.209 --> 00:34:07.412
MR. CHAIR. OKAY. THANK YOU.

00:34:07.478 --> 00:34:09.580
SENATOR. ANYONE ELSE? YES,

00:34:09.647 --> 00:34:11.883
SENATOR. THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.

00:34:11.949 --> 00:34:13.751
AND THANK YOU TO THE AUTHOR FOR

00:34:13.818 --> 00:34:15.486
BRINGING THIS FORWARD. REALLY

00:34:15.553 --> 00:34:17.989
GAVE A LOT OF THOUGHT TO WHERE

00:34:18.055 --> 00:34:19.323
WE'RE AT TODAY, AND ESPECIALLY

00:34:19.390 --> 00:34:21.793
WITH THIS BILL. AND WHAT WE

00:34:21.859 --> 00:34:24.729
HEARD TODAY WAS THAT 95% OF

00:34:24.796 --> 00:34:27.331
FOLKS DO NOT RECOMMIT DUI. BUT

00:34:27.398 --> 00:34:29.801
IT WASN'T UNTIL THE SECOND DUI

00:34:29.867 --> 00:34:31.602
THAT RESOURCES AND HELP WAS

00:34:31.669 --> 00:34:33.771
SOUGHT FOR. AND WE ALSO HEARD

00:34:33.838 --> 00:34:36.207
THAT AN EXTRAORDINARY NUMBER

00:34:36.274 --> 00:34:37.308
PERCENTAGE OF FOLKS DON'T

00:34:37.375 --> 00:34:38.843
RECOMMIT IN THE FIRST YEAR. BUT

00:34:38.910 --> 00:34:40.211
WHAT ABOUT THE SECOND YEAR, THE

00:34:40.278 --> 00:34:41.979
THIRD YEAR, THE FOURTH YEAR AND

00:34:42.046 --> 00:34:45.082
ON? AND THE WAY I SEE IT IS THE

00:34:45.149 --> 00:34:47.718
ONLY WAY THIS BILL IMPACTS

00:34:47.785 --> 00:34:50.321
ANYBODY IS BEING CAUGHT

00:34:50.388 --> 00:34:52.790
DRINKING AND DRIVING. AND SO IF

00:34:52.857 --> 00:34:54.992
YOU ARE DRINKING AND DRIVING,

00:34:55.059 --> 00:34:58.162
MY ANSWER WOULD BE JUST STOP.

00:34:58.229 --> 00:35:00.698
HOWEVER, IF IF I'M GOING TO AIR

00:35:00.765 --> 00:35:03.968
TODAY ON A VOTE, I'D RATHER

00:35:04.035 --> 00:35:04.869
INCONVENIENCE THE INDIVIDUAL

00:35:04.936 --> 00:35:06.504
THAT WAS CAUGHT DRINKING AND

00:35:06.571 --> 00:35:08.673
DRIVING RATHER THAN IMPACT THE

00:35:08.739 --> 00:35:10.074
FAMILY WITH SEVERE INJURY OR

00:35:10.141 --> 00:35:12.243
DEATH. AND SO FOR THAT I WILL

00:35:12.310 --> 00:35:17.248
BE SUPPORTING AB 1830 TODAY.

00:35:17.315 --> 00:35:19.083
SENATOR. THANK YOU, MR.

00:35:19.150 --> 00:35:20.418
CHAIRMAN. THANK YOU FOR YOUR

00:35:20.485 --> 00:35:21.986
COMMENTS. TO START THE

00:35:22.053 --> 00:35:24.088
DISCUSSION, I WANT TO THANK THE

00:35:24.155 --> 00:35:25.156
AUTHOR FOR BRINGING THIS BILL

00:35:25.223 --> 00:35:26.257
FORWARD, WHICH IS ADDRESSING A

00:35:26.324 --> 00:35:28.459
REALLY SERIOUS ISSUE THAT HAS

00:35:28.526 --> 00:35:29.494
HONESTLY BEEN OVERLOOKED FOR

00:35:29.560 --> 00:35:31.963
FAR TOO LONG. AND I HOPE THAT

00:35:32.029 --> 00:35:33.197
AT THE END OF THIS YEAR, WE

00:35:33.264 --> 00:35:35.132
LOOK BACK AND THIS IS THE YEAR

00:35:35.199 --> 00:35:36.968
WHERE WE REALLY CHANGE THE WAY

00:35:37.034 --> 00:35:38.135
WE DEAL WITH IMPAIRED AND DRUNK

00:35:38.202 --> 00:35:39.337
DRIVING IN CALIFORNIA. AND THIS

00:35:39.403 --> 00:35:41.138
IS ONE OF A NUMBER OF BILLS

00:35:41.205 --> 00:35:42.306
HAVE BEEN INTRODUCED IN BOTH

00:35:42.373 --> 00:35:44.041
HOUSES, INCLUDING A BILL BY OUR

00:35:44.108 --> 00:35:45.309
COLLEAGUE, SENATOR ARCHULETA,

00:35:45.376 --> 00:35:46.410
THAT'S INTENDING TO DEAL WITH

00:35:46.477 --> 00:35:49.780
THE ISSUE OF OF DRIVING UNDER

00:35:49.847 --> 00:35:51.082
THE INFLUENCE AND INCREASING

00:35:51.148 --> 00:35:54.218
PENALTIES FOR REPEAT OFFENDERS

00:35:54.285 --> 00:35:55.353
AND MAKING SURE THAT WE HAVE

00:35:55.419 --> 00:35:57.588
INCREASED ACCOUNTABILITY AND

00:35:57.655 --> 00:35:58.990
ENFORCEMENT OF THOSE LAWS. AND

00:35:59.056 --> 00:36:00.558
I THINK ABOUT THE HEARING THAT

00:36:00.625 --> 00:36:02.627
WE HAD IN FEBRUARY, WHERE THE

00:36:02.693 --> 00:36:04.896
HEAD OF DMV HERE TALKING ABOUT

00:36:04.962 --> 00:36:07.298
THIS VERY SERIOUS ISSUE, I

00:36:07.365 --> 00:36:08.966
THINK THAT WAS REALLY A CALL TO

00:36:09.033 --> 00:36:11.569
ACTION. THANK YOU FOR THE

00:36:11.636 --> 00:36:12.570
CONVERSATION WE HAD THIS

00:36:12.637 --> 00:36:13.704
MORNING, AND I WANT TO THANK

00:36:13.771 --> 00:36:14.906
THE AUTHOR FOR THE COMMITMENT.

00:36:14.972 --> 00:36:17.408
AS THIS BILL MOVES FORWARD TO.

00:36:17.475 --> 00:36:21.379
ONE, MAKE SURE THAT THE ID

00:36:21.445 --> 00:36:23.848
MANUFACTURERS INSTALLERS ARE

00:36:23.915 --> 00:36:24.949
IMPLEMENTING THE PROVISIONS OF

00:36:25.016 --> 00:36:27.118
THIS BILL, PARTICULARLY THE

00:36:27.184 --> 00:36:29.186
DISCOUNT AND AFFORDABILITY

00:36:29.253 --> 00:36:30.254
PIECES, MAKING SURE THERE'S

00:36:30.321 --> 00:36:32.890
PROPER NOTICE TO, YOU KNOW, TO

00:36:32.957 --> 00:36:36.460
PEOPLE WHO OFFEND AROUND THE

00:36:36.527 --> 00:36:40.464
AVAILABILITY OF REDUCED COSTS.

00:36:40.531 --> 00:36:41.666
AND THEN ALSO MAKING SURE THAT

00:36:41.732 --> 00:36:42.934
THERE'S SOME OVERSIGHT AND

00:36:43.000 --> 00:36:45.069
ACCOUNTABILITY OF THE

00:36:45.136 --> 00:36:46.103
INSTALLERS. I THINK THAT'S A

00:36:46.170 --> 00:36:47.271
REALLY KEY PIECE OF THIS AS

00:36:47.338 --> 00:36:49.774
WELL. SO I APPRECIATE THE

00:36:49.840 --> 00:36:50.875
AUTHOR'S COMMITMENT TO

00:36:50.942 --> 00:36:53.044

PUBLIC SAFETY, TRANSPORTATION

00:36:54.912 --> 00:36:56.480
AND OTHER RELEVANT STAKEHOLDERS

00:36:56.547 --> 00:36:58.082
ON THAT PARTICULAR ISSUE. I

00:36:58.149 --> 00:36:59.016
JUST WANT TO CALL ATTENTION,

00:36:59.083 --> 00:37:00.785
SINCE WE HAVE DMV HERE, AND I

00:37:00.851 --> 00:37:01.919
RAISED THIS ISSUE IN THE

00:37:01.986 --> 00:37:04.188
HEARING THIS MORNING AROUND THE

00:37:04.255 --> 00:37:05.289
CHANGE OF THE DEFINITION OF

00:37:05.356 --> 00:37:07.491
PHYSICAL CONTROL. AND IN

00:37:07.558 --> 00:37:08.859
SECTION 12 OF THE BILL UNDER

00:37:08.926 --> 00:37:13.864
SECTION 13352, I THINK THAT WAS

00:37:13.931 --> 00:37:17.168
THIS IS A VERY TECHNICAL CHANGE

00:37:17.234 --> 00:37:18.970
RIGHT NOW. THE STANDARD IS

00:37:19.036 --> 00:37:21.138
DRIVING. BUT THIS USES A NEW

00:37:21.205 --> 00:37:22.540
TERM OF PHYSICAL CONTROL. AND

00:37:22.607 --> 00:37:24.275
SO THERE IS AN ISSUE THAT NEEDS

00:37:24.342 --> 00:37:27.278
TO BE CLARIFIED THAT THIS

00:37:27.345 --> 00:37:28.646
PHYSICAL CONTROL MEAN THAT I'M

00:37:28.713 --> 00:37:30.181
I'M IN THE CAR BUT I'M NOT. THE

00:37:30.247 --> 00:37:32.016
CAR ISN'T ON. I'M NOT DRIVING

00:37:32.083 --> 00:37:34.085
THE CAR. WE WANT PEOPLE TO NOT

00:37:34.151 --> 00:37:36.554
BE DRIVING. WE WANT PEOPLE TO.

00:37:36.621 --> 00:37:38.255
IF MAYBE IF THEY'RE INTOXICATED

00:37:38.322 --> 00:37:40.057
TO, TO SIT THERE AND SOBER UP

00:37:40.124 --> 00:37:41.626
OR SLEEP IT OFF RATHER THAN

00:37:41.692 --> 00:37:43.060
OPERATING A VEHICLE. AND SO I

00:37:43.127 --> 00:37:44.295
WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT IS

00:37:44.362 --> 00:37:46.998
NOT THAT'S NOT AN UNINTENDED

00:37:47.064 --> 00:37:48.065
CONSEQUENCE OF THAT, THAT

00:37:48.132 --> 00:37:49.567
DEFINITIONAL CHANGE. AND SO I

00:37:49.634 --> 00:37:51.202
THINK THAT'S AN ISSUE THAT DOES

00:37:51.268 --> 00:37:52.336
NEED TO BE CLARIFIED, BECAUSE

00:37:52.403 --> 00:37:53.871
IT COULD POTENTIALLY CHANGE THE

00:37:53.938 --> 00:37:55.339
STANDARD OF APPLICABILITY

00:37:55.406 --> 00:37:57.441
THAT'S IN EXISTING LAW. SO IT

00:37:57.508 --> 00:37:59.977
ASKS THE AUTHOR DID EXPRESS AN

00:38:00.044 --> 00:38:01.612
INTEREST IN FURTHER CONFERRING

00:38:01.679 --> 00:38:02.880
WITH THE ADMINISTRATION ON THIS

00:38:02.947 --> 00:38:04.348
ISSUE, AND HOPE THAT WE CAN

00:38:04.415 --> 00:38:05.449
CLARIFY THAT PARTICULAR POINT.

00:38:05.516 --> 00:38:06.884
YES, AND THANK YOU, SENATOR, SO

00:38:06.951 --> 00:38:10.054
MUCH FOR THOSE COMMENTS. AS WE

00:38:10.121 --> 00:38:11.922
SAID IN THIS MORNING'S HEARING,

00:38:11.989 --> 00:38:13.824
CERTAINLY COMMITTED TO GETTING

00:38:13.891 --> 00:38:14.959
BOTH OF THOSE PIECES RIGHT. AND

00:38:15.026 --> 00:38:17.695
AS YOU SAID, WHEN WHEN SOMEONE

00:38:17.762 --> 00:38:19.497
INSTALLS THIS DEVICE, IF IT

00:38:19.563 --> 00:38:20.631
DOESN'T WORK AND DOESN'T START

00:38:20.698 --> 00:38:22.099
THE CAR, THAT'S ACTUALLY THE

00:38:22.166 --> 00:38:23.234
IDEAL OUTCOME. SO WE WANT TO

00:38:23.300 --> 00:38:25.102
ENSURE THAT THERE'S NO, AS YOU

00:38:25.169 --> 00:38:26.170
SAID, UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCE.

00:38:26.237 --> 00:38:27.304
SO I'M CERTAINLY COMMITTED TO

00:38:27.371 --> 00:38:29.173
WORKING WITH THE DMV AND

00:38:29.240 --> 00:38:29.974
ADMINISTRATION TO MAKE SURE

00:38:30.041 --> 00:38:32.343
THAT THAT IS CLARIFIED. SO

00:38:32.410 --> 00:38:34.178
THANK YOU. I KNOW THE DMV

00:38:34.245 --> 00:38:35.179
REPRESENTATIVE. YOU WERE GOING

00:38:35.246 --> 00:38:36.781
TO ADD SOMETHING. YES. I JUST

00:38:36.847 --> 00:38:38.482
WANT TO SAY THAT THE INTENT

00:38:38.549 --> 00:38:40.685
BEHIND THE LANGUAGE, SORRY. AMY

00:38:40.751 --> 00:38:42.820
TANNER WITH DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR

00:38:42.887 --> 00:38:44.989
VEHICLES. THE INTENT OF THE

00:38:45.056 --> 00:38:46.390
LANGUAGE IS NOT TO EXPAND OR

00:38:46.457 --> 00:38:48.225
CHANGE THE DEFINITION OF DUI

00:38:48.292 --> 00:38:50.394
PHYSICAL CONTROL AS PART OF THE

00:38:50.461 --> 00:38:51.829
DEFINITION OF DRIVER AND

00:38:51.896 --> 00:38:54.065
VEHICLE CODE. SECTION 305. SO

00:38:54.131 --> 00:38:56.133
THAT IS THE SAME. THAT REMAINS

00:38:56.200 --> 00:38:57.601
THE LANGUAGE YOU'RE SPEAKING TO

00:38:57.668 --> 00:38:59.737
INTENDS TO ADDRESS THOSE WHO

00:38:59.804 --> 00:39:01.906
RECEIVE A DUI OUT OF STATE. SO

00:39:01.972 --> 00:39:03.340
CALIFORNIA FOR CALIFORNIA

00:39:03.407 --> 00:39:04.375
DRIVER WHO GOES OUT OF STATE

00:39:04.442 --> 00:39:06.610
AND COMMITS A DUI THERE. OTHER

00:39:06.677 --> 00:39:07.678
STATES HAVE DIFFERENT

00:39:07.745 --> 00:39:09.080
DEFINITIONS. THEY USE PHYSICAL

00:39:09.146 --> 00:39:10.281
CONTROL OPERATION. THIS IS JUST

00:39:10.347 --> 00:39:11.882
TO ENSURE THEY CAN BE HELD

00:39:11.949 --> 00:39:14.185
ACCOUNTABLE HERE IN CALIFORNIA

00:39:14.251 --> 00:39:15.953
FOR THAT DUI OUT OF STATE, NOT

00:39:16.020 --> 00:39:17.488
CALIFORNIA DUI. THANK YOU.

00:39:17.555 --> 00:39:19.190
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THAT

00:39:19.256 --> 00:39:20.891
CLARIFICATION. AND THANK YOU TO

00:39:20.958 --> 00:39:21.992
THE AUTHOR FOR BRINGING THIS

00:39:22.059 --> 00:39:23.194
BILL FORWARD. I WILL BE VOTING

00:39:23.260 --> 00:39:26.363
ON TODAY. THANK YOU, SENATOR.

00:39:26.430 --> 00:39:28.265

CAMPBELL SAID, AS SENATOR

00:40:11.442 --> 00:40:12.376
ARCHULETA SAID, THE APPROACH

00:40:12.443 --> 00:40:14.345
THAT WE'RE TAKING IN THIS BILL

00:40:14.411 --> 00:40:16.413
IS NOT INTENDED TO BE PUNITIVE.

00:40:16.480 --> 00:40:19.517
IT IS INTENDED TO BE PREVENTIVE

00:40:19.583 --> 00:40:21.952
AND TO PREVENT TRAGEDIES ACROSS

00:40:22.019 --> 00:40:25.422

00:40:25.489 --> 00:40:28.325
ACROSS THE STATE AND TO PREVENT,

00:40:28.392 --> 00:40:29.760
AS YOU SAID, MR. CAMPBELL,

IN THE ASSEMBLY THAT MAKES

00:43:43.253 --> 00:43:44.688
IMPORTANT CHANGES TO STATE LAW

00:43:44.755 --> 00:43:46.523
TO ENSURE THAT THE GOLDEN GATE

00:43:46.590 --> 00:43:48.492
BRIDGE, AN ICONIC SYMBOL OF OUR

00:43:48.559 --> 00:43:49.593
STATE AND A CRITICAL LINK

00:43:49.660 --> 00:43:51.095

00:43:56.500 --> 00:43:57.601
THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE HIGHWAY

AUTHORITY ALREADY ENJOYED BY

00:44:05.109 --> 00:44:06.577
OTHER SPECIAL DISTRICTS TO TAKE

THAT THE BRIDGE CAN CONTINUE TO

00:44:21.258 --> 00:44:23.727
BE USED IN THE WAKE OF A MAJOR

00:44:23.794 --> 00:44:24.828
EARTHQUAKE. THE DISTRICT WAS

00:44:24.895 --> 00:44:26.630
FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO COUNT ON

00:44:26.697 --> 00:44:28.098
SUBSTANTIAL FEDERAL GRANTS,

TWO MAIN TOWERS AND THE SIDE

SPANS OF THE BRIDGE. IT IS

00:45:15.579 --> 00:45:16.747
THREE TIMES LARGER THAN ANY

00:45:16.814 --> 00:45:18.148
OTHER CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT WE

00:45:18.215 --> 00:45:19.750
HAVE DONE AT THE BRIDGE. THE

PREVIOUS LARGEST CONTRACT WAS

00:45:20.751 --> 00:45:22.419
OUR SUICIDE BARRIER AND SO WE

00:45:22.486 --> 00:45:24.221

IN ALLOWING US TO PROCEED NOT

00:46:04.595 --> 00:46:05.662
SENATOR ARCHULETA, FIRST, WE

00:46:05.729 --> 00:46:07.898
HAVE A MOTION. WE HAVE A MOTION

00:46:07.965 --> 00:46:09.933
PENDING FROM VICE CHAIR. YEAH.

00:46:10.000 --> 00:46:11.135
SENATOR WIENER, I'D JUST LIKE

00:46:11.201 --> 00:46:14.671
TO COMPLIMENT YOU ON THIS BILL.

00:46:14.738 --> 00:46:16.073
YOU ARE SO IN TUNE WITH YOUR

00:46:16.140 --> 00:46:18.208
DISTRICT, WITH YOUR CITY OF SAN

00:46:18.275 --> 00:46:19.643
FRANCISCO. IT'S IT'S

00:46:19.710 --> 00:46:24.348
COMMENDABLE. WE IN SOUTHERN

00:46:24.414 --> 00:46:26.850
CALIFORNIA, WE THINK OF THE THE

00:46:26.917 --> 00:46:29.853
BRIDGE AS A MONUMENT THAT'S

00:46:29.920 --> 00:46:31.555
BEEN THERE FOREVER, NOT

00:46:31.622 --> 00:46:32.589
REALIZING THAT IT DOES

00:46:32.656 --> 00:46:34.091
DETERIORATE. IT DOES NEED

00:46:34.158 --> 00:46:35.492
MAINTENANCE. AND OVER THE YEARS

00:46:35.559 --> 00:46:37.694
AND THE USAGE AND SO ON, NO

00:46:37.761 --> 00:46:40.898
DOUBT. AND $1 BILLION. SO THIS

00:46:40.964 --> 00:46:42.466
BILL JUST GIVES PERMISSION TO

00:46:42.533 --> 00:46:44.401
GO AHEAD AND OPEN UP SOME DOORS

00:46:44.468 --> 00:46:45.936
FOR FUNDING AND SO ON. SO I

00:46:46.003 --> 00:46:47.404
WILL MOVE THE BILL THE

00:46:47.471 --> 00:46:48.805
APPROPRIATE TIME. AND AGAIN,

00:46:48.872 --> 00:46:49.940
CONGRATULATIONS. AND TO SAN

00:46:50.007 --> 00:46:52.943
FRANCISCO. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

00:46:53.010 --> 00:46:53.544
THANK YOU. IF THERE'S NOTHING

00:46:53.610 --> 00:46:56.079
ELSE, I THINK WE HAD A MOTION

00:46:56.146 --> 00:46:57.447
SENATE-TV DIDN'T SEE YOU. THANK

00:46:57.514 --> 00:46:59.650
YOU, MR. CHAIR. THANK YOU. I

00:46:59.716 --> 00:47:00.684
APOLOGIZE WE DIDN'T HAVE A

00:47:00.751 --> 00:47:02.119
CHANCE TO CONNECT. YOU JUST

00:47:02.186 --> 00:47:03.987
CAME OVER QUICKLY. SO A COUPLE

00:47:04.054 --> 00:47:06.857
QUESTIONS. CAN YOU CLARIFY IF

00:47:06.924 --> 00:47:10.127
THIS ALLOWS THE ENTITY TO SEEK

00:47:10.194 --> 00:47:12.963
A BOND WITHOUT A TWO THIRDS

00:47:13.030 --> 00:47:15.432
APPROVAL? AND IN ORDER TO REPAY

00:47:15.499 --> 00:47:17.634
THAT POTENTIALLY TOLLS WILL

00:47:17.701 --> 00:47:19.836
INCREASE. SO I JUST WANT I WANT

00:47:19.903 --> 00:47:21.772
TO KNOW IF, IF, IF VOTERS ARE

00:47:21.838 --> 00:47:23.040
BEING EXCLUDED FROM THE ABILITY

00:47:23.106 --> 00:47:24.708
FOR THIS TO HAPPEN AND IF

00:47:24.775 --> 00:47:25.909
THEY'RE BEING EXCLUDED, WHAT

00:47:25.976 --> 00:47:27.110
ANYTHING INCREASE FOR THEM TO

00:47:27.177 --> 00:47:29.546
HAVE TO PAY FOR. UNBEKNOWNST TO

00:47:29.613 --> 00:47:31.348
THEM, MR. MULLIGAN CAN ANSWER

00:47:31.415 --> 00:47:35.986
THAT. THERE. SO AS CURRENTLY

00:47:36.053 --> 00:47:37.821
CONTEMPLATED, IT WOULD ALLOW

00:47:37.888 --> 00:47:39.590
OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO

00:47:39.656 --> 00:47:41.058
AUTHORIZE CONDUIT FINANCES TO

00:47:41.124 --> 00:47:42.726
BORROW MONEY ABSENT A VOTE OF

00:47:42.793 --> 00:47:43.927
THE PUBLIC. THE SAME THING THAT

00:47:43.994 --> 00:47:45.762
AC TRANSIT CAN DO TODAY, THAT

00:47:45.829 --> 00:47:46.964
BART CAN DO, THAT THE CITY AND

00:47:47.030 --> 00:47:48.966
COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO CAN DO.

00:47:49.032 --> 00:47:52.202
SO MANY PUBLIC AGENCIES WITHIN

00:47:52.269 --> 00:47:53.237
CALIFORNIA HAVE THE ABILITY TO

00:47:53.303 --> 00:47:54.338
BORROW MONEY WITHOUT A VOTE OF

00:47:54.404 --> 00:47:55.772
THE PEOPLE. THE LEGISLATION

00:47:55.839 --> 00:47:57.241
THAT TRIGGERS THAT VOTE OF THE

00:47:57.307 --> 00:47:58.408
PEOPLE WAS DONE BEFORE ANYONE

00:47:58.475 --> 00:48:01.178
IN THIS ROOM PROBABLY WAS ALIVE.

00:48:01.245 --> 00:48:02.646
HARKENING BACK TO DIFFERENT ERA

00:48:02.713 --> 00:48:03.814
WHERE THE BRIDGE DISTRICT WOULD

00:48:03.880 --> 00:48:06.216
HAVE TO FUND AN ELECTION IN SIX

00:48:06.283 --> 00:48:08.018
COUNTIES, SOME OF WHICH ARE ALL

00:48:08.085 --> 00:48:09.353
THE WAY UP TO THE OREGON BORDER.

00:48:09.419 --> 00:48:11.088
AND WE'D HAVE TO HAVE A TWO

00:48:11.154 --> 00:48:12.256
THIRDS VOTE IN EACH COUNTY.

00:48:12.322 --> 00:48:14.124
THAT IS NOT HOW OTHER PUBLIC

00:48:14.191 --> 00:48:15.158
AGENCIES FUNCTION IN THE STATE

00:48:15.225 --> 00:48:17.060
TODAY. OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS

00:48:17.127 --> 00:48:18.195
DOES HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO SET

00:48:18.262 --> 00:48:20.631
OUR TOLLS. THEIR BOARD OF

00:48:20.697 --> 00:48:21.732
DIRECTORS IS COMPRISED OF

00:48:21.798 --> 00:48:22.899
MEMBERS FROM THE SIX COUNTIES

00:48:22.966 --> 00:48:23.934
THAT VOTED TO CREATE THE

00:48:24.001 --> 00:48:25.669
DISTRICT IN THE 1920S, AND

00:48:25.736 --> 00:48:26.737
VOTED TO PUT THEIR FACTORIES,

00:48:26.803 --> 00:48:27.804
VINEYARDS AND HOMES UP AS

00:48:27.871 --> 00:48:29.973
GUARANTEES FOR THE BONDS. SO

00:48:30.040 --> 00:48:31.808
THE TOLLS ARE USED TO MAINTAIN

00:48:31.875 --> 00:48:33.243
AND OPERATE THE BRIDGE. WE ARE

00:48:33.310 --> 00:48:34.411
SOMEWHAT UNIQUE IN THAT WE ALSO

00:48:34.478 --> 00:48:36.213
USE TOLLS TO SUBSIDIZE A BUS

00:48:36.280 --> 00:48:37.581
AND FERRY SYSTEM THAT REMOVES

00:48:37.648 --> 00:48:38.982
THOUSANDS OF CARS FROM HIGHWAY

00:48:39.049 --> 00:48:40.317
101 EVERY DAY FROM THE STREETS

00:48:40.384 --> 00:48:41.985
OF SAN FRANCISCO. AND IF YOU

00:48:42.052 --> 00:48:43.620
WATCH THE MORNING NEWS IN THE

00:48:43.687 --> 00:48:44.721
BAY AREA, THERE'S ONLY ONE

00:48:44.788 --> 00:48:45.822
BRIDGE WHERE CARS TRAVEL THE

00:48:45.889 --> 00:48:47.557
SPEED LIMIT, AND THAT'S OUR

00:48:47.624 --> 00:48:48.558
BRIDGE. AND THAT'S BECAUSE

00:48:48.625 --> 00:48:49.693
TOLLS ARE SUBSIDIZING A BUS AND

00:48:49.760 --> 00:48:51.561
FERRY SYSTEM. SO WE DO RAISE

00:48:51.628 --> 00:48:52.763
TOLLS A LITTLE BIT EVERY YEAR

00:48:52.829 --> 00:48:53.830
TO COVER COSTS, TO PROVIDE

00:48:53.897 --> 00:48:54.965
FIRST CLASS TRANSIT SERVICE,

00:48:55.032 --> 00:48:56.667
BUT ALSO TO PROTECT THE BRIDGE

00:48:56.733 --> 00:48:58.802
FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS. SO

00:48:58.869 --> 00:49:00.637
YOU'VE ALREADY BANKED IN

00:49:00.704 --> 00:49:02.072
BECAUSE THERE'S A THERE'S AN

00:49:02.139 --> 00:49:03.440
OPTION FOR YOU TO PLEDGE TOLL

00:49:03.507 --> 00:49:05.275
REVENUES TO COVER PAYING BACK

00:49:05.342 --> 00:49:06.476
THE LOAN. YOU'VE ALREADY BANKED

00:49:06.543 --> 00:49:08.045
IN YOUR ANNUAL INCREASES OF

00:49:08.111 --> 00:49:09.913
TOLLS TO COVER THIS. IT WON'T

00:49:09.980 --> 00:49:11.581
BE ANOTHER ADDITIONAL INCREASE

00:49:11.648 --> 00:49:12.983
TO COVER THIS LOAN REPAYMENT.

00:49:13.050 --> 00:49:14.718
OUR CURRENT ADOPTED BUDGET FOR

00:49:14.785 --> 00:49:16.453
THIS FISCAL YEAR CONTEMPLATES

00:49:16.520 --> 00:49:18.588
TAKING $50 MILLION FROM TOLLS

00:49:18.655 --> 00:49:20.057
AND SETTING THEM ASIDE FOR

00:49:20.123 --> 00:49:21.091
CAPITAL RESERVES FOR FUTURE

00:49:21.158 --> 00:49:22.859
CAPITAL PROJECTS. LAST YEAR, WE

00:49:22.926 --> 00:49:24.428
SET ASIDE APPROXIMATELY $50

00:49:24.494 --> 00:49:26.430
MILLION ALSO. SO EVERY YEAR WE

00:49:26.496 --> 00:49:27.964
SET ASIDE TOLL DOLLARS FOR

00:49:28.031 --> 00:49:29.766
CAPITAL RESERVES, FOR PROJECTS

00:49:29.833 --> 00:49:30.834
THAT'S TO MATCH FEDERAL FUNDS

00:49:30.901 --> 00:49:32.502
AND ALSO, IF NECESSARY, IF THIS

00:49:32.569 --> 00:49:33.670
WERE TO PASS, TO ALLOW US TO

00:49:33.737 --> 00:49:35.539
BORROW MONEY TO FINALIZE AND

00:49:35.605 --> 00:49:36.573
COMPLETE THE LAST CONSTRUCTION

00:49:36.640 --> 00:49:38.342
PHASE ON THE BRIDGE. OKAY, SO

00:49:38.408 --> 00:49:40.010
YOU ALREADY HAVE THAT SET ASIDE,

00:49:40.077 --> 00:49:41.978
SO THERE'S NO NEED TO INCREASE.

00:49:42.045 --> 00:49:43.947
I CAN'T GUARANTEE THE FUTURE

00:49:44.014 --> 00:49:45.582
BECAUSE TRAFFIC CAN FLUCTUATE

00:49:45.649 --> 00:49:46.850
TODAY. OVERALL, BRIDGE TRAFFIC

00:49:46.917 --> 00:49:47.984
ON THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE IS

00:49:48.051 --> 00:49:49.519
DOWN 13% COMPARED TO

00:49:49.586 --> 00:49:51.355
PRE-PANDEMIC LEVELS. SO WE HAVE

00:49:51.421 --> 00:49:53.490
SHRUNK. TODAY, WE EMPLOY 40%

00:49:53.557 --> 00:49:55.692
FEWER BUS OPERATORS. WE'VE

00:49:55.759 --> 00:49:57.461
GOTTEN SMALLER BASED ON THE

00:49:57.527 --> 00:49:59.563
LESS DEMAND FOR TRANSIT SERVICE.

00:49:59.629 --> 00:50:01.331
WE DID NOT LAY ANYONE OFF. WE

00:50:01.398 --> 00:50:02.599
DID ALL THAT THROUGH ATTRITION,

00:50:02.666 --> 00:50:03.967
BUT WE HAVE SCALED OUR

00:50:04.034 --> 00:50:07.204
ORGANIZATION DOWN BECAUSE WE

00:50:07.270 --> 00:50:08.638
HAVE TO BALANCE OUR BOOKS EVERY

00:50:08.705 --> 00:50:11.141
YEAR. OKAY. THANK YOU. ALL

00:50:11.208 --> 00:50:12.909
RIGHT. IF THERE'S NOTHING ELSE,

00:50:12.976 --> 00:50:16.913
BACK TO THE MOTION. WE HAD TWO

00:50:16.980 --> 00:50:18.048
SENATOR DAHLE GOT THE MOTION.

00:50:18.115 --> 00:50:19.916
WE'LL GO AHEAD AND TAKE A ROLL

00:50:19.983 --> 00:50:21.318
CALL VOTE AT THIS TIME, THE

00:50:21.385 --> 00:50:23.320
MOTION IS THAT THE ASSEMBLY

00:50:23.387 --> 00:50:24.388
