Legislative Update

State Capitol

I’m very pleased to report that Governor Schwarzenegger has signed all five of my bills that passed the Legislature in 2009:

Good Samaritan Protection Act (SB 39): Indemnifies registered Disaster Service Volunteers rendering all forms of emergency care from liability of civil damages

Retired Officers Badges (SB 169): Allows local and state law enforcement agencies to issue honorary retiree badges to officers following their dedicated service to the public

Escrow Industry Fee Limits (SB 204): Places limits on fees, levied against licensed escrow agents and businesses by the Department of Corporations, in order to create a more favorable business environment for California’s escrow industry

Taxpayer Protection (SB 321): Increases the integrity and transparency of local benefit assessment elections

Probation Reform (SB 431): Improves probation oversight and facilitates community reintegration by establishing that an adult probationer’s county of residence will be responsible for the terms of that individual’s probation.
