LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 82, Committee on Budget. State government.
(1) The Alcoholic Beverage Control Act, administered by the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, regulates the granting of licenses for the manufacture, distribution, and sale of alcoholic beverages within the state. Existing law prohibits a person from performing duties that include the sale or service of alcoholic beverages for consumption on premises licensed by the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, and management of that person, without a valid alcohol server certification. Existing law requires a licensee to ensure that each alcohol server it employs has a valid alcohol server certification and to maintain records of certifications for inspection by the department. Existing law prohibits a licensee, beginning on July 1, 2021, from employing or continuing to employ an alcohol server without a valid alcohol server certification.
This bill would instead prohibit a licensee from employing or continuing to employ an alcohol server without a valid alcohol server certification beginning on July 1, 2022, and would make other conforming changes.
(2) The Control, Regulate and Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act (AUMA), an initiative measure approved as Proposition 64 at the November 8, 2016, statewide general election, authorizes a person who obtains a state license under AUMA to engage in commercial adult-use cannabis activity pursuant to that license and applicable local ordinances. The Medicinal and Adult-Use Cannabis Regulation and Safety Act (MAUCRSA), among other things, consolidates the licensure and regulation of commercial medicinal and adult-use cannabis activities.
MAUCRSA gives the Bureau of Cannabis Control in the Department of Consumer Affairs the power, duty, purpose, responsibility, and jurisdiction to regulate commercial cannabis activity in the state as provided by the act, but generally divides responsibility for the state licensure and regulation of commercial cannabis activity among the Bureau of Cannabis Control, the Department of Food and Agriculture, and the State Department of Public Health. MAUCRSA imposes duties on the Bureau of Cannabis Control with respect to the creation, issuance, denial, suspension, and revocation of licenses issued for microbusinesses, transportation, storage, distribution, testing, and sale of cannabis and cannabis products pursuant to MAUCRSA. MAUCRSA authorizes the Director of Consumer Affairs to employ and appoint all employees necessary to properly administer the work of the bureau, in accordance with civil service laws and regulations. MAUCRSA requires the Director of Consumer Affairs to ensure that a sufficient number of employees are qualified peace officers for purposes of enforcing MAUCRSA and authorizes a licensing authority to make or cause to be made any investigation as it deems necessary to carry out its duties under MAUCRSA.
Existing law provides that certain persons are peace officers whose authority extends to any place in the state for the purpose of performing their primary duty, as specified. Existing law classifies, among others, persons in the Department of Consumer Affairs who have been designated as peace officers with that authority as state peace officer/firefighter members under the Public Employees’ Retirement System (PERS). Employees classified as safety members under PERS, including state peace officer/firefighter members, are generally entitled to higher benefits and subject to higher contribution rates than employees classified as miscellaneous or general members. Under existing law, member contributions to PERS are deposited in the Public Employees’ Retirement Fund, a continuously appropriated fund.
Under this bill, the chief of enforcement, and all investigators, inspectors, and deputies of the bureau identified by the Director of Consumer Affairs would have the authority of peace officers extending to any place in the state while engaged in exercising their powers or performing their duties imposed upon them in investigating the laws administered by the department or commencing directly or indirectly any criminal prosecution arising from any investigation conducted under these laws. The bill would authorize the bureau to employ peace officers, as specified. Under the bill, those individuals identified by the director would be peace officers for purposes of the public employee retirement benefits described above if their primary duty is as set forth in this bill. The bill would make an appropriation by increasing the amount of employee contributions to the Public Employees’ Retirement Fund.
The bill would also allow the bureau to employ individuals who are not peace officers to provide investigative services.
AUMA authorizes the Legislature to amend, by a majority vote, certain provisions of the act to implement specified substantive provisions, provided that the amendments are consistent with and further the purposes and intent of the act.
This bill would declare that its provisions implement specified substantive provisions of AUMA and are consistent with and further the purposes and intent of AUMA.
(3) Existing law requires the Attorney General to register data brokers, as defined, and requires the Attorney General to create a page on its internet website where the information provided by data brokers is accessible to the public. Existing law further requires data brokers to pay a registration fee not to exceed the reasonable costs of establishing and maintaining that internet website. A data broker that fails to register as required is subject to injunction and is liable for civil penalties, fees, and costs in an action brought in the name of the people of the State of California by the Attorney General. Existing law requires any penalties, fees, and expenses recovered in such an action to be deposited in the Consumer Privacy Fund established by the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018. Under existing law, those revenues are intended to offset costs incurred by the state courts and the Attorney General in connection with the data broker registration provisions.
This bill would require data broker registration fees to be deposited in the Data Brokers’ Registry Fund, which the bill would create in the State Treasury, to be available for expenditure by the Department of Justice, upon appropriation by the Legislature, to offset the internet website costs described above.
(4) Existing law recognizes various holidays, including March 31, known as Cesar Chavez Day. Existing law provides that if March 31 falls upon a Sunday, the Monday following is a holiday.
This bill would specify that, if March 31 falls on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, the Legislature may observe the holiday on the preceding Friday, the preceding Monday, or the following Friday.
(5) Existing law establishes within the Department of Industrial Relations the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, also known as the Labor Commissioner’s Office and headed by the Labor Commissioner, for the purpose of enforcing labor laws. The Labor Commissioner is authorized to investigate employee complaints. Existing law authorizes the Labor Commissioner, after investigation and upon determination that wages or monetary benefits are due and unpaid to any worker in the State of California, to collect those wages or benefits on behalf of the worker.
This bill, until January 1, 2031, would require the division, by March 1, 2022, and by that date annually thereafter, to submit a report to the Department of Finance and the budget committees and relevant policy committees of the Legislature that includes prescribed information relating to wage claims for the prior calendar year.
(6) Under existing law, the Public Utilities Commission has regulatory authority over public utilities, including telephone corporations. Existing law establishes the California Advanced Services Fund (CASF) in the State Treasury with the goal to approve funding by December 31, 2022, for infrastructure projects that will provide broadband access to no less than 98% of California households in each consortia region, as identified by the commission on or before January 1, 2017. Existing law authorizes the commission to impose a surcharge to collect $330,000,000 for deposit into the CASF beginning January 1, 2018, and continuing through the 2022 calendar year. Existing law establishes 4 accounts, the Broadband Infrastructure Grant Account, the Rural and Urban Regional Broadband Consortia Grant Account, the Broadband Public Housing Account, and the Broadband Adoption Account within the CASF and specifies the amount of moneys to be deposited into each account. Existing law requires that a grant from the Broadband Infrastructure Grant Account not include funding for costs of broadband infrastructure already funded by the federal Connect America Fund program or other similar federal public program that funds that infrastructure.
This bill would delete the requirement that a grant from the Broadband Infrastructure Grant Account not include funding for costs of broadband infrastructure already funded by the federal Connect America Fund program or other similar federal public program. The bill would revise the definition of an “unserved household” for purposes of the CASF.
(7) Existing law provides that the California Workforce Development Board (board) is responsible for assisting the Governor in the development, oversight, and continuous improvement of California’s workforce investment system. Existing law sets forth the intent of the Legislature that California, among other services, deliver comprehensive workforce services to jobseekers, students, and employers through a system of one-stop career centers and that services and resources target high-wage industry sectors with career advancement opportunities.
This bill would establish the Social Entrepreneurs for Economic Development Initiative (SEED Initiative), to be administered by the board, to, among other things, assist economically disadvantaged groups who face significant barriers to employment, including, but not limited to, individuals with limited English proficiency. The bill would, through the SEED Initiative, authorize entrepreneurial training to individuals from the target populations and the award of microgrants to support them in launching or maintaining a small business in California. The bill would provide that information collected from individuals participating in the SEED Initiative would not constitute a record subject to disclosure under the California Public Records Act. The bill would require the board to provide a report to the Legislature by March 1, 2022, regarding the uses and outcomes of the funds provided in the 2020 Budget Act and to include prescribed information.
(8) Existing state sales and use tax laws impose a tax on retailers measured by the gross receipts from the sale of tangible personal property sold at retail in this state or on the storage, use, or other consumption in this state of tangible personal property purchased from a retailer for storage, use, or other consumption in this state. AB 85 of the 2019–20 Regular Session, with respect to specified vehicles sold at retail on and after January 1, 2021, by any licensed dealer, except a new motor vehicle dealer, requires the dealer to pay the applicable sales tax to the Department of Motor Vehicles acting for and on behalf of the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration within 30 days from the date of the sale. AB 85 imposes specified penalties if the dealer makes an application to the Department of Motor Vehicles that is not timely and imposes penalties and interest if the dealer fails to do specified acts. AB 85 also requires, for retail sales of vehicles occurring on and after January 1, 2021, a dealer, other than a new motor vehicle dealer, to submit with a vehicle registration application the payment of the applicable sales tax to the Department of Motor Vehicles.
This bill would require the Department of Motor Vehicles, through the adoption of regulations, to establish any additional requirements for the implementation of AB 85 and would prohibit a dealer from participating in the sale of a used vehicle without complying with the provisions described above. This bill would make the operation of these provisions contingent on the enactment of AB 85 of the 2019–20 Regular Session.
Existing law generally requires the registration of vehicles by the Department of Motor Vehicles and requires that department to issue a certificate of ownership to the legal owner and a registration card to the owner, as specified, upon registering that vehicle. AB 85 requires the Department of Motor Vehicles to withhold the registration or the transfer of registration of any vehicle sold at retail on and after January 1, 2021, to any applicant by any licensed dealer, other than a new motor vehicle dealer, until the dealer pays to the Department of Motor Vehicles the sales tax and any penalties, except as specified.
This bill would eliminate the requirement that Department of Motor Vehicles withhold the registration or the transfer of registration of any vehicle sold at retail on and after January 1, 2021, to any applicant by any licensed dealer, other than a new motor vehicle dealer, until the dealer pays to the department the sales tax and any penalties. This bill would make the operation of this elimination contingent on the enactment of AB 85 of the 2019–20 Regular Session.
(9) Existing law requires specified forms filed with the Department of Motor Vehicles to contain a social security account number. Existing law provides that information provided on those forms regarding a driver’s license or identification card applicant’s social security account number or ineligibility for a social security account number is not a public record and is not subject to disclosure by the department, except for specified reasons.
This bill would expand those exceptions by permitting the Department of Motor Vehicles to disclose that information to the Employment Development Department for purposes relating to tax administration and to ensure compliance with specified requirements, including, among others, unemployment compensation benefit requirements.
(10) Existing constitutional provisions require that a statute that limits the right of access to the meetings of public bodies or the writings of public officials and agencies be adopted with findings demonstrating the interest protected by the limitation and the need for protecting that interest.
This bill would make legislative findings to that effect.
(11) This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as a bill providing for appropriations related to the Budget Bill.

(2) In approving infrastructure projects, the commission shall do both of the following:
(A) Approve projects that provide last-mile broadband access to households that are unserved by an existing facility-based broadband provider, and, upon accomplishment of the goal of the program specified in paragraph (1), also approve projects pursuant to paragraph (15) of subdivision (f).

(3) The commission may collect a sum not to exceed three hundred thirty million dollars ($330,000,000) for a sum total of moneys collected by imposing the surcharge described in paragraph (1). The commission may collect the sum beginning with the calendar year starting on January 1, 2018, and continuing through the 2022 calendar year, in an amount not to exceed sixty-six million dollars ($66,000,000) per year, unless the commission determines that collecting a higher amount in any year will not result in an increase in the total amount of all surcharges collected from telephone customers that year.
(e) All moneys in the California Advanced Services Fund shall be available, upon appropriation by the Legislature, to the commission for the program administered by the commission pursuant to this section, including the costs incurred by the commission in developing, implementing, and administering the program and the fund.

(iii) If the existing facility-based broadband provider is unable to complete the deployment of broadband within the delineated unserved area within 180 days, the provider shall provide the commission with information to demonstrate what progress has been made or challenges faced in completing the deployment. If the commission finds that the provider is making progress towards the completion of the deployment, the commission shall extend the time to complete the project beyond the 180 days. If the commission finds that the provider is not making progress towards completing the deployment, the delineated unserved area shall be eligible for funding pursuant to this subdivision.
(B) (i) Except for information specified in clause (ii), information submitted to the commission that includes the provider’s plans for future broadband deployment shall not be publicly disclosed.
(ii) The commission may publicly disclose information regarding the area designated for a broadband deployment, the number of households or locations to be served, and the estimated date by which the deployment will be completed.

(B) All or a significant portion of the project deploys last-mile infrastructure to provide service to unserved households. Projects that only deploy middle-mile infrastructure are not eligible for grant funding. For a project that includes funding for middle-mile infrastructure, the commission shall verify that the proposed middle-mile infrastructure is indispensable for accessing the last-mile infrastructure.
(C) (i) Except as provided in clause (ii), until July 1, 2020, the project is not located in a census block where an existing facility-based broadband provider has accepted federal funds for broadband deployment from Phase II of the Connect America Fund, unless the existing facility-based broadband provider has notified the commission before July 1, 2020, that it has completed its Connect America Fund deployment in the census block.
(ii) An existing facility-based broadband provider is eligible for a grant pursuant to this subdivision to supplement a grant pursuant to Phase II of the Connect America Fund to expand broadband service within identified census blocks, as needed.
(6) (A) An individual household or property owner shall be eligible to apply for a grant to offset the costs of connecting the household or property to an existing or proposed facility-based broadband provider. Any infrastructure built to connect a household or property with funds provided under this paragraph shall become the property of, and part of, the network of the facility-based broadband provider to which it is connected.
(B) (i) In approving a project pursuant to this paragraph, the commission shall consider limiting funding to households based on income so that funds are provided only to households that would not otherwise be able to afford a line extension to the property, limiting the amount of grants on a per-household basis, and requiring a percentage of the project to be paid by the household or the owner of the property.
(ii) The aggregate amount of grants awarded pursuant to this paragraph shall not exceed five million dollars ($5,000,000).

(13) The commission may require each infrastructure grant applicant to indicate steps taken to first obtain any available funding from the Connect America Fund program or similar federal public programs that fund broadband infrastructure.

The commission may require an applicant to provide match funding, and shall not deny funding for a project solely because the applicant is receiving funding from another source.

(c) Application to the Department of Motor Vehicles by the dealer shall not relieve the dealer of the obligation to file a return with the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration under Section 6452. The dealer shall file a return as specified in Section 6453.
(d) If the dealer fails to make an application to the Department of Motor Vehicles, fails to pay the amount of sales tax due, or fails to timely file a return with the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration under Section 6452, interest and penalties shall apply with respect to the unpaid amount as provided in Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 6451).

 Article 6 (commencing with Section 14106) is added to Chapter 3 of Division 7 of the Unemployment Insurance Code, to read:
Article  6. Social Entrepreneurs for Economic Development Initiative

14106.
 The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(a) Numerous studies have indicated the significant economic contributions of immigrants to this state and the nation as a whole. Businesses launched by immigrant entrepreneurs create millions of jobs, generate billions of dollars in revenue, and help revitalize communities.
(b) California has the highest concentration of immigrant business owners in the nation. From 2007 to 2011, immigrants founded 44 percent of new businesses in the state. In 2016, undocumented immigrant entrepreneurs generated over $3 billion in business income in California.
(c) In 2017, individuals eligible for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) earned over $23 billion in income and paid almost $1.8 billion in state and local taxes; more than 43,000 were entrepreneurs, providing jobs and supporting local economies. Individuals granted Temporary Protected Status (TPS) earned over $7 billion in 2017, and paid more than $890 million in federal taxes and over $650 million in state and local taxes.
(d) Individuals who are not United States citizens or lawful permanent residents, or who are limited English proficient, face multiple impediments that may prevent them from securing and maintaining gainful employment. For example, due to actions at the federal level, DACA and TPS recipients, who are vital members of our communities and spark economic development, have been deprived of or are at risk of being denied certain federal protections, which will result in economic hardship for them and their families.
(e) It is in the best interest of the State of California to enable these individuals to continue contributing to the economic vibrancy of this state, by supporting entrepreneurial opportunities to start and grow small businesses that will open up paths to economic self-sufficiency.

14106.5.
 For purposes of this article, the following terms have the following meanings:
(a) “California Workforce Development Board” or “board” means the California Workforce Development Board established pursuant to Article 1 (commencing with Section 14010).
(b) “SEED Initiative” or “SEED” means the Social Entrepreneurs for Economic Development Initiative.
(c) “Target populations” means either of the following:
(1) Individuals with limited English proficiency, regardless of immigration or citizenship status.
(2) Individuals who are neither United States citizens nor lawful permanent residents, which includes, but is not limited to, individuals who have been granted Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) or Temporary Protected Status (TPS) under federal law.

14107.
 (a) This article establishes the Social Entrepreneurs for Economic Development Initiative, to be administered by the California Workforce Development Board.
(b) The SEED Initiative is aimed at economically disadvantaged groups who face significant barriers to employment, specifically individuals with limited English proficiency, or individuals who are neither United States citizens nor lawful permanent residents. While this includes individuals who have been granted DACA or TPS, the SEED Initiative is open to all individuals in the target populations, including but not limited to other immigrants, refugees and asylees, and United States citizens.
(c) The purpose of the SEED Initiative is to support burgeoning entrepreneurship of individuals in SEED target populations, which will also increase the economic diversity of the state and help spur business innovation. Efforts funded under SEED are intended to supplement and be aligned with the broader workforce and education system in California.
(d) It is the intent of the Legislature to allow persons who are not lawfully present in the United States, as members of the SEED target populations, to participate in and benefit from the SEED Initiative, and this section is therefore enacted pursuant to Section 1621(d) of Title 8 of the United States Code.

14108.
 (a) The SEED Initiative shall provide entrepreneurial training to individuals from the target populations and award microgrants to support them in launching or maintaining a small business in California.
(b) Eligible uses of SEED funds include, but are not limited to, the development and implementation of the following SEED program components for any target population: an immigrant entrepreneurship training curriculum; microgrants and technical assistance to support small business development aimed at addressing a social problem or meeting a community need; community education and outreach about SEED; program evaluation; and program administration.
(c) The board shall administer the SEED Initiative through nonprofit community-based organizations that will develop and implement SEED program components.

14109.
 For purposes of implementing the SEED Initiative, no entity or person shall seek information that is unnecessary to determine eligibility, including whether the individual is unlawfully present in the United States. Information that may be collected from individuals participating in the SEED Initiative shall not constitute a record subject to disclosure under Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 6250) of Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code.

14110.
 (a) The board shall provide a report to the Legislature by March 1, 2022, regarding the uses and outcomes of the funds provided in the 2020 Budget Act. The report shall include, at a minimum, the following information:
(1) The amount of funding provided for each of the following: training curriculum, microgrants, community education and outreach, program evaluation, and program administration.
(2) The number of microgrant applications, the number of awarded grants, and the average dollar amount of the grant.
(3) The geographic distribution of grants and activities.
(4) The number of people enrolled in the SEED entrepreneurial training.
(5) The number of people who completed the SEED entrepreneurial training.
(6) Evaluation of the effectiveness of the SEED entrepreneurial training, outreach, and materials developed.
(7) The types of industries and business sectors in which the microgrants were made.
(b) (1) A report to be submitted pursuant to subdivision (a) shall be submitted in compliance with Section 9795 of the Government Code.

 Section 11713 of the Vehicle Code is amended to read:

11713.
 A holder of a license issued under this article shall not do any of the following:
(a) Make or disseminate, or cause to be made or disseminated, before the public in this state, in a newspaper or other publication, or an advertising device, or by public outcry or proclamation, or in any other manner or means whatever, a statement that is untrue or misleading and that is known, or that by the exercise of reasonable care should be known, to be untrue or misleading; or to so make or disseminate, or cause to be so disseminated, a statement as part of a plan or scheme with the intent not to sell a vehicle or service so advertised at the price stated therein, or as so advertised.
(b) (1) (A) Advertise or offer for sale or exchange in any manner, a vehicle not actually for sale at the premises of the dealer or available to the dealer directly from the manufacturer or distributor of the vehicle at the time of the advertisement or offer. However, a dealer who has been issued an autobroker’s endorsement to the dealer’s license may advertise the dealer’s service of arranging or negotiating the purchase of a new motor vehicle from a franchised new motor vehicle dealer and may specify the line-makes and models of those new vehicles. Autobrokering service advertisements may not advertise the price or payment terms of a vehicle and shall disclose that the advertiser is an autobroker or auto buying service, and shall clearly and conspicuously state the following: “All new cars arranged for sale are subject to price and availability from the selling franchised new car dealer.”
(B) As to printed advertisements, the disclosure statement required by subparagraph (A) shall be printed in not less than 10-point bold type size and shall be textually segregated from the other portions of the printed advertisement.

(3) Radio advertisements of a duration of less than 11 seconds that do not reference specific line-makes or models of motor vehicles are exempt from the disclosure statement required in subparagraph (A).

(g) Include, as an added cost to the selling price of a vehicle, an amount for licensing or transfer of title of the vehicle, which is not due to the state unless, prior to the sale, that amount has been paid by a dealer to the state in order to avoid penalties that would have accrued because of late payment of the fees. However, a dealer may collect from the second purchaser of a vehicle a prorated fee based upon the number of months remaining in the registration year for that vehicle, if the vehicle had been previously sold by the dealer and the sale was subsequently rescinded and all the fees that were paid, as required by this code and Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 10751) of Part 5 of Division 2 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, were returned to the first purchaser of the vehicle.
(h) Employ a person as a salesperson who has not been licensed pursuant to Article 2 (commencing with Section 11800), and whose license is not displayed on the premises of the dealer as required by Section 11812, or willfully fail to notify the department by mail within 10 days of the employment or termination of employment of a salesperson.
