AB 117Assembly 20221x

Growing Government Dependency by Providing Electric Bicycle Vouchers to Certain Individuals Based on Income.

Against DEMs
This bill establishes the "Electric Bicycle Incentive Project" to provide vouchers to income-eligible individuals to purchase e-bikes at certain retailers. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as not only do measures such as this provide competitive advantages to government-favored companies, and further hike taxpayer costs, but also disincentivize advancement and grow government dependency by expanding the welfare state.
AB 1227Assembly 20221x

Attacking Second Amendment Rights through Additional Taxes on Firearms and Ammunition - Resulting in a 25% Sales Tax Rate.

With DEMs
The "Gun Violence Prevention, Healing, and Recovery Act" enacts an additional 3.75% sale tax on firearms and ammunition sold in the state. As a result, purchasers of firearms and ammunition may face a sales tax rate of over 25% when factoring in the state tax (11%), local taxes (up to 3.5%) and the federal tax (11%). This taxation also does not include the amount passed onto consumers through the $37.19 fee placed on firearm dealers plus other taxes. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as James Madison and our nation''s other founding fathers understood that the right to keep and bear arms is a crucial individual liberty and protects the citizenry against a tyrannical government. This measure serves to punish law-abiding individuals who wish to exercise their Second Amendment rights through outrageous levels of taxation.
AB 1242Assembly 20221x

Harboring Individuals who Performed Illegal Abortions by Prohibiting Law Enforcement Cooperation with Out-of-State Authorities.

With DEMs
This bill prohibits all California law enforcement agencies from cooperating with, or providing information to any out-of-state agency attempting to apprehend an individual who performed an illegal abortion. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill obstructs the ability for law enforcement to hold abortionists accountable for performing illegal abortions. All abortions are tragedies and every child deserves the right to life.
AB 1279Assembly 20221x

Stifling Economic Growth by Codifying the State''s Disastrous 2045 "Net-Zero" Carbon Goal.

With DEMs
The "California Climate Crisis Act" legally binds the state to its goal of "net-zero" carbon by 2045, and maintain and achieve negative greenhouse gas emissions in the years following. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill further cements the state to its disastrous environmental agenda, which will stifle economic growth and lead to sky-rocketing prices for businesses and consumers.
AB 1410Assembly 20221x

Infringing Private Contracting Rights through Government Overreach into the Governance Practices of Private Condominium Associations

With DEMs
This bill imposes a series of new restrictions on the governing practices of Home Owners Associations (HOAs) and other planned communities. For example, the bill places new regulations on HOAs concerning the ability of owners to rent their units as well as how issues are discussed on social media platforms. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as it is not the role of government to dictate the private contractual agreements and operations of HOAs. HOAs serve as free-market alternatives to government zoning and land use standards, as individuals can choose the restrictiveness of the community they wish to join or select to live on property outside the governance of an HOA.
AB 1594Assembly 20221x

Attempting to Force Firearm Manufacturers Out of Business by Exposing them to Frivolous and Costly Litigation.

With DEMs
The "Firearm Industry Responsibility Act" prohibits a firearm manufacture from manufacturing or marketing a product that is "abnormally dangerous and likely to create an unreasonable risk of harm to public health and safety in California". Additionally, the bill allows individuals to sue a manufacturer for any actions or failure by their distributors to comply with state law if the individual suffers damages from the misuse of a firearm. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as James Madison and our nation''s other founding fathers understood that the right to keep and bear arms is a crucial individual liberty and protects the citizenry against a tyrannical government. This measure is primarily designed to drive firearm manufacturers out of business through an attempt to advance a gun-control agenda.
AB 1632Assembly 20221x

Forcing Private Businesses to Grant Access to Employee Restrooms for Individuals with an "Eligible Medical Condition".

Against DEMs
This bill requires all publicly serving businesses to provide individuals with an "eligible medical condition" (such as inflammatory bowel disease) access to their toilet facilities. The access must be provided even if the toilet facility is otherwise only available to employees, and a business can be fined $100 for each case of non-compliance. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as lawmakers should not further grow the regulatory state and impose mandates on private businesses to account for the near endless list of medical conditions that individuals may face. Such one-size-fits all mandates may also result in abuse of business restrooms - especially when considering California''s extremely high homeless rates.
AB 1666Assembly 20221x

Making California a "Sanctuary State for Abortion" by Prohibiting Enforcement of Civil Actions by Individuals or Entities from Other States.

With DEMs
This bill prevents the California court system from enforcing or satisfying civil judgements from individuals or entities that run contrary to state law concerning receiving or inducing an abortion. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill obstructs the ability for individuals to hold abortionists accountable for performing illegal abortions. All abortions are tragedies and every child deserves the right to life.
AB 1738Assembly 20221x

Advancing New Electric Vehicle Charging Station Mandates on Existing Multi-Family Dwellings, Hotels and other Commercial Buildings.

With DEMs
This bill requires the Department of Housing and Community Development to adopt new regulations which require the installation of electric vehicle charging stations at certain existing commercial buildings including multi-family dwellings, hotels and non-residential developments. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as the free market - not government employees - is best equipped to determine the need, placement and amount of electric vehicle charging stations and infrastructure. Empowering the DHCD to impose mandates may inflict significant financial harm onto some smaller businesses.
AB 1778Assembly 20221x

Blocking Infrastructure and Freeway Expansions to Prevent "Racist Roadways".

With DEMs
This bill requires consultation of the "California Healthy Places Index" when determining freeway expansion projects. According to the sponsor, the bill is designed to end "systemic racism" resulting from freeway expansion projects in low-income communities of color. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this politicized measure will merely increase travel and commute times across the state, while further driving up taxpayer costs and delays in critical infrastructure projects.
AB 1851Assembly 20221x

Hiking Taxpayer Costs by Expanding Prevailing Wage Mandates to Include the Hauling of Construction Materials To and From Job Sites.

With DEMs
This bill expands the application of the state''s prevailing wage mandate to include hauling of materials to and from a publicly-funded construction site, such as paving, grading and fill. The prevailing wage originates from the Davis-Bacon Act a depression-era policy that forces government contractors to pay their employees above-market wages when working public works projects. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as prevailing wage mandates needlessly drive-up taxpayer costs by imposing significant additional costs onto government contractors.
AB 1918Assembly 20221x

Forcing Taxpayers to Fund Scholarships and Training for Abortion Providers by Establishing the "California Reproductive Health Service Corps".

With DEMs
This bill establishes the California Reproductive Health Service Corps "for the purposes of recruiting, training, and retaining a diverse workforce of reproductive health care professionals in underserved areas." The bill directs funding towards scholarships, stipends for living expenses and childcare, and loan repayment for providers who work at a "corps-approved site". Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as taxpayers should not fund scholarships or loan repayments for any industry, let alone an industry which faces strong opposition by a significant portion of the population.
AB 1951Assembly 20221x

Increasing Tax Burdens on Other Individuals and Businesses through an Expansion of Sales Tax Exemptions for Research and Development and the Manufacturing Sector.

Against DEMs
This bill replaces the partial sales tax exemption for manufacturing equipment and research and development with a full sales tax exemption through 2028. This exemption covers items such as machinery, computers and special purpose buildings used for manufacturing or research and development. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as all state and local tax codes should be constructed in a broadly applied manner with as low of rates as possible for everyone. The central planning and tax cronyism enacted under this measure provides special benefits and advantages to the manufacturing industry while shifting tax burdens to all other industries and companies that do not share the same business model. Instead, lawmakers should instead utilize the $500 million in tax savings to provide a broad tax cut across all industries, which will allow the free market to provide far greater job and business growth.
AB 2026Assembly 20221x

Increasing Consumer Costs and Shipping Damage by Banning Online Retailers from Utilizing Single-Use Plastic Envelopes, Bubble Wrap and Styrofoam.

With DEMs
This bill prohibits online retailers from utilizing single-use plastic envelopes, cushioning, bubble wrap, or polystyrene to ship products to consumers. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as not only will this bill significantly drive up consumer product costs but also increase the likelihood of damage during the shipping process. imposes additional government restrictions on businesses and drives up prices in favor of an environmental agenda.
AB 2091Assembly 20221x

Hiding the Practice of Abortion by Prohibiting Healthcare Providers, Insurers and Employers from Responding to Subpoenas Requesting Medical Information Related to Abortion.

With DEMs
This bill prohibits healthcare providers, insurers, contractors, and employers from releasing medical information related to an individual seeking or obtaining an abortion in response to a subpoena or request based on another state''s law. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as all abortions are tragedies and every child deserves the right to life.
AB 2098Assembly 20221x

Allowing the State Medical Board to Punish Doctors for Spreading Alleged "Misinformation" about COVID-19.

With DEMs
This bill declares that physicians and surgeons commit "unprofessional conduct" if they "disseminate misinformation" related to COVID-19, including false or misleading information regarding the nature and risks of the virus, its prevention and treatment; and the development, safety, and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines". Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this politicized measure promotes government censorship and prevents physicians from best serving their patients - which is especially problematic considering the everchanging guidelines and determinations being made by the government concerning COVID-19.
AB 2133Assembly 20221x

Placing Enormous New Costs on Businesses and Consumers by Mandating a 55% (Previously 40%) Reduction in Greenhouse Gas Emissions by 2030.

With DEMs
This bill requires the California Air Resource Board (CARB) to adopt much more stringent reductions in Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. Under the bill, the state''s GHG emissions must be reduced at least 55% (previously 40%) below 1990 levels by 2030. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this stringent mandate will have dire consequences on economic and business growth, which will ultimately be felt by consumers nationwide through higher product prices.
AB 2134Assembly 20221x

Providing "Free" Abortions to Women Earning up to 400% of the Federal Poverty Level.

With DEMs
This bill establishes the California Reproductive Health Equity Program, which provides no cost or reduced cost abortion services to women earning up to 400% of the federal poverty level. Additionally, the bill requires health insurers which provide plans without abortion coverage to religious employers, to provide written notice to those enrollees that they may be eligible for no cost abortions through the state program. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as regardless of ones view on abortion, it is not the role of government to provide such coverage and force the costs onto taxpayers, many of whom have deep religious objections to the practice.
AB 2183Assembly 20221x

Hiking Consumer Costs and Empowering Union Leaders by Unionizing the Agricultural Industry through a Card-Check System.

With DEMs
This bill makes it much easier for union leaders to unionize agricultural workers across the state''s 30,000 farms. Specifically, the bill authorizes usage of a "card check" system which allows leaders to publicly pressure workers into unionizing, as opposed to the existing "secret ballot voting" system. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this measure will subject agricultural workers to significant new levels of intimidation and harassment to unionize by labor leaders. Measures such as this highlight the importance of "Right to Work" legislation, which protects the ability of individuals to work without joining a labor union.
AB 2199Assembly 20221x

Forcing Taxpayers to Fund Additional Doula Services Through the Creation of the "Birthing Justice for California Families Pilot Project".

Against DEMs
This bill establishes the "Birthing Justice for California Families Pilot Project", which funds community-based doula groups to provide services to individuals who are otherwise not eligible under the state''s Medicaid system. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this measure further increases government dependency under a state system that already provides benefits to a substantial portion of the population through Medi-Cal. Lawmakers should instead work to reduce barriers for charitable organizations to direct aid and assistance to those that truly need it, not expand the ineffective welfare state.
AB 2201Assembly 20221x

Weakening Property Rights by Placing Costly and Excessive Regulatory Barriers to Drill New Groundwater Wells.

With DEMs
This bill requires local agencies which permit groundwater wells to obtain written verification stating a proposed well will not "undermine sustainable groundwater management or cause well interference". This additional statewide mandate is expected to significantly raise costs for well applicants and potentially limit the ability of some landowners to utilize the groundwater beneath their property. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as well drilling is already regulated at the local level and this additional state-wide regulatory barrier places significant costs onto businesses and may provide favor to certain landowners while infringing the property rights of others.
AB 2205Assembly 20221x

Funneling More Funds to Abortion by Imposing New Reporting Requirements on the $1 Monthly Abortion Surcharge on all Healthcare Plans.

With DEMs
This bill imposes new reporting requirements on healthcare insurers regarding the amount of money collected and expended within their segregated accounts to pay for abortion services. Under existing state law, all health insurers must collect $1 per enrollee per month specifically for abortion services. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill likely serves as a new tool to advocate for increased funding and expenditures for abortion services. All abortions are tragedies and every child deserves the right to life.
AB 2223Assembly 20221x

Covering Up Infanticide by Prohibiting Coroner Investigations of Fetal Deaths.

With DEMs
This bill eliminates provisions within the law which require the coroner to investigate certain fetal deaths. The bill also prohibits the use of the coroner''s statements on the death certificate from being used for a criminal prosecution. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as the state should not eliminate critical safeguards which protect newly born children from being murdered under the guise of the tragedy of abortion.
AB 2237Assembly 20221x

Harming the Transportation Sector by Basing Infrastructure Funding and Prioritization on Advancing Climate Goals.

With DEMs
This bill requires county and regional transportation agencies to prioritize transportation projects based on adherence to Sustainable Communities Strategies (SCS) and the state''s climate goals. Additionally, the agencies are prohibited from funding any project that is determined to be inconsistent with the most recent SCS or climate goal by the Air Resource Board. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill will result in greater traffic and commute times for Californians by hindering infrastructure expansion while also unnecessarily driving up transportation project costs for taxpayers.
AB 2247Assembly 20221x

Advancing Government Overreach through a Costly New Reporting and Registration System for Products Containing PFAS Substances.

With DEMs
This bill requires the Department of Toxic Substances Control to construct a publicly accessible platform were manufactures must annually register products that contain perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). There are over 9,000 PFAS in existence which are in hundreds of common household products such as nonstick cookware, furniture, raincoats and shampoo. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as the federal government already monitors PFAS substances and this measure will place significant additional costs on taxpayers, manufacturers, and ultimately consumers.
AB 2320Assembly 20221x

Channeling Tens of Millions of Additional Taxpayer Funds to Providers of Abortion in "Marginalized Communities".

With DEMs
This bill establishes a new pilot program within the California Health and Human Services Agency (CHHSA) which provides additional taxpayer funding to primary care clinics that perform abortion and are located in five counties across different regions of the state. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as it is not the role of government to promote abortion and force payment from taxpayers to advance abortion (many of whom may have strong religious objections).
AB 257Assembly 20221x

Subjecting Restaurants to Unreasonable Labor Union Demands through the Creation of an Unaccountable "Fast Food Council" to Impose Regulations.

With DEMs
The "Fast Food Accountability and Standards Recovery Act" or "FAST Recovery Act," establishes a 10 member fast food council made up of appointees by the Governor, Speaker of the Assembly and Senate rules committee. The council would have power to set minimum wages, working hours and various other labor standards and regulations. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill provides far overreaching powers to a group of individuals who are not accountable to voters. Additionally, the bill drives up consumer costs by subjecting business to unreasonable demands by labor unions.
AB 2608Assembly 20221x

Weakening Election Integrity by Ending the Preservation of Vote by Mail Applications and Expanding Recipients of "Second" Mailed Ballots.

With DEMs
This bill repeals the requirement that the state preserve all applications for mail ballots for 22 months following the date of federal elections, and 6 months from the date of state and local elections. Additionally, election officials are now required to also send a "second ballot" via mail to a "voter representative" upon written request by a voter. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill promotes ballot harvesting as well as weakens safeguards to prevent voter fraud. Such safeguards against fraud are critical to ensuring free and fair elections, an essential component of democracy under our nation''s constitutional republic.
AB 2626Assembly 20221x

Preventing the Medical Board of California from Taking Disciplinary Action Against Physicians Who Performed Illegal Abortions in Other States.

With DEMs
This bill prevents the Medical Board of California from suspending or revoking the license of medical professionals who has been punished by another state for performing an illegal abortion. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill obstructs the ability for states to hold abortionists accountable for performing illegal abortions. All abortions are tragedies and every child deserves the right to life.
AB 2784Assembly 20221x

Hiking Consumer Costs by Imposing Recycled Content Mandates for a Wide Range of Common Consumer Plastic Containers.

With DEMs
Beginning in 2025, this bill requires thermoform plastic containers (such as "clamshell" trays for take-out food, plastic egg cartons, bakers trays, etc.) to contain at least 20-30% recycled content. The bill also imposes penalties on producers for non-compliance. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill serves as yet the latest mandate which infringes business and consumer choice for food packaging and unnecessarily drives up cost. The state''s two largest cities have already imposed bans on Styrofoam food containers.
AB 2815Assembly 20221x

Weakening Election Integrity through the Politicized Placement of Ballot Drop Boxes Across All State University Campuses.

With DEMs
This bill requires a ballot drop-off location be placed on each California State University Campus in addition to the other locations required by law. Additionally, when selecting drop-off locations across the state, the bill requires election officials to prioritize community college locations. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill politicizes the placement of ballot drop-off locations due to the very high levels of voting amongst college-age voters for a particular political party. While the state should eliminate all drop boxes, such placement should at least be based on population and determined in a non-politicized manner to ensure free and fair elections.
AB 2840Assembly 20221x

Hindering Economic Growth and Infringing Property Rights through Restrictions on New Logistic Center and Warehouse Construction.

With DEMs
This bill prohibits any warehouse or logistic building greater than 100,000 square feet from being constructed within 1,000 feet of a "sensitive receptor". The bill defines a sensitive receptor as any home, apartment, school, church, hospital, daycare, community center or public playground. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as not only does this bill infringe property and development rights, but it also hikes consumer costs by preventing distribution facilities, such as Amazon, from being centrally located in the communities they serve. This resulting urban sprawl leads to longer delivery times and an unnecessary negative environmental impact.
AB 2847Assembly 20221x

Forcing Taxpayers to Spend Hundreds of Millions Annually to Provide Unemployment Benefits to Illegal Immigrants.

With DEMs
This bill establishes the "Excluded Workers Pilot Program" which provides illegal immigrants with up to 20 weeks of unemployment benefits, at an amount of $300 per week. The bill is estimated to cost state taxpayers $237 million to build out and over $215 million in annual benefit payouts. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as providing individuals who entered the country unlawfully to taxpayer funded welfare benefits merely incentivizes additional illegal immigration. While reforms are needed to the U.S. immigration system to increase the number of skilled individuals who may enter and work in our country, measures such as this undermine reform efforts and plunge taxpayers into further debt.
AB 2870Assembly 20221x

Further Expanding Firearm Seizures Without Due Process Through the "Gun Violence Restraining Order".

With DEMs
This bill expands the state''s "Gun Violence Restraining Order" (GVRO) or "red flag" law to expand the category of persons who may petition a court to issue an order. Specifically, roommates, dating partners and those with "substantial and regular interactions" may now seek to have a firearm immediately taken away from another person through an "ex-parte" (one-sided) petition to a court if the individual alleges the person in possession of the firearm is in danger to themselves or others. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as the one-sided petition violates due process under the law (an individual can''t provide their defense) and this program lacks provisions that prevent nefarious individuals from abusing the system to harass or harm law-abiding individuals, thus unduly infringing their Second Amendment protections and leaving them defenseless.
AB 2974Assembly 20221x

Hiking Taxpayer Costs through an Additional Small Business Procurement Mandate for Infrastructure Projects.

Against DEMs
The "Small Business Procurement and Contract Act" establishes a 25% small business target for infrastructure contracts issued through the $14 billion the state received under the Federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as all government contracting and procurement decisions should be based strictly on factors relating to cost and quality. Contracting quotas and mandates such as this bill merely restrict competition and unnecessarily drive-up taxpayer costs, while also potentially reducing project quality and timeliness.
AB 503Assembly 20221x

Increasing Crime and Harming Public Safety by Placing a 6 Month Limit on Juvenile Probation.

With DEMs
This bill places a 6-month limit on the amount of time a juvenile offender may be placed on probation except in limited cases. Additionally, the court is no longer required to place certain conditions on juvenile probation such as attending counseling, repairing property, performing community service or repaying apprehension costs. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill limits the ability of courts to maintain public safety and protect property rights. This measure is especially troubling considering the enactment of other changes to the criminal justice system which have loosened penalties and led to rising crime rates.
AB 657Assembly 20221x

Incentivizing Abortion by Expediting State Licensure of Doctors and Nurses who Intend to take the Lives of the Unborn.

With DEMs
This bill requires the Medical Board of California, Board of Registered Nursing and other boards to expedite the license application for applicants who demonstrate they intend to perform abortions. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill incentives medical professionals to take the lives of the unborn while delaying the process for all other healthcare providers. All abortions are tragedies and every child deserves the right to life.
SB 1018Assembly 20221x

Expanding the Regulatory State by Placing Costly New Reporting Mandates on Social Media Companies Concerning Content Policy Violations

With DEMs
The "Platform Accountability and Transparency Act" requires social media to publicly disclose how their algorithms push information. This includes statistics on items of content that violated their platform policies and were recommended or amplified through their algorithms. According to the bill''s sponsor, the measure is needed to bring transparency to medical disinformation, such as during the COVID-19 pandemic. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this government overreach into the private sector places significant financial and regulatory costs onto the tech industry, which is ultimately passed down to consumers. Except in cases of fraud or criminal activity, industries are best governed through free market principles whereby consumers hold private companies accountable.
SB 1020Assembly 20221x

Hiking Energy Costs by Imposing Even More Stringent Renewable Energy and Zero-Carbon Electricity Mandates

With DEMs
The "Clean Energy, Jobs, and Affordability Act of 2022" further increases the stringency of a landmark climate bill passed in 2018 which requires all electricity sold in the state to be 100% clean by 2045. SB 1020 establishes additional benchmarks such as requiring 90% of electricity sold be carbon free by 2030 and 95% by 2035. Furthermore, all state agencies must now obtain their power from renewables by 2035. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as these unnecessary new mandates will only further drive-up electricity costs for consumers, businesses and taxpayers. Lawmakers should instead spur economic growth (which ultimately leads to environmental improvement) through an "all of the above" approach to energy procurement.
SB 107Assembly 20221x

Establishing a "Sanctuary State" for Transgender Procedures on Minors

With DEMs
This bill establishes California as a sanctuary state for "gender affirming healthcare" by limiting cooperation with other states seeking to enforce law designed to protect children from such procedures. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this politicized measure disregards the duly enacted laws of other states which protect minors from horrific and irreversible procedures which children are not old enough to consent to.
SB 1137Assembly 20221x

Limiting American Energy Production Through New Draconian Restrictions on Oil and Gas Well Placement.

With DEMs
This bill prohibits construction of any new oil or gas wells within 3,200 feet of a "sensitive receptor" which includes everything from homes, schools, hospitals, and businesses. Additionally, the bill requires existing wells in those areas to comply with additional light, sound and environmental regulations. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill will significantly reduce oil and gas extraction in the state, ultimately harming American energy production and the U.S. economy.
SB 1142Assembly 20221x

Promoting Abortion through the Creation of a State Website to Provide Information on Abortion Providers and How to Obtain Support Services Such as Airfare, Meals and Lodging.

With DEMs
This bill requires the California Health and Human Services Agency to establish a website providing various abortion related information. Such information includes the locations of abortion providers, available practical support services like airfare, lodging, meals, etc., and payment support resources. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as it is not the role of government to promote abortion and force payment from taxpayers to advance abortion (many of whom may have strong religious objections). All abortions are tragedies and every child deserves the right to life.
SB 1162Assembly 20221x

Subjecting Employers to Further Harassment by Expanding the State''s Pay Data Reporting Mandate to Include Contractors and Pay Publishing.

With DEMs
This bill further expands the reporting requirement placed on employers which requires them to disclose pay rates by job category according to race, sex and ethnicity. Now employers must publish their pay scales and employers with 100 or more contractors must also disclose this information for their contracted workers. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this further government intrusion into the marketplace infringes confidential employer and worker contracting rights, while also subjecting employer to additional public harassment.
SB 1234Assembly 20221x

Increasing Government Dependency by Providing STD Treatment to all LGBTQ Individuals at the Expense of Taxpayers.

With DEMs
This bill expands Family PACT (government-provided healthcare) to include prevention and treatment of sexually transmitted diseases for individuals who already may be insured and are not at risk of experiencing or causing an unintended pregnancy. The bill is primarily directed at LGBTQ individuals who may have confidentiality concerns using their insurance for treatment. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill further grows government-provided healthcare and dependency while also estimated to place tens of millions of dollars of additional costs onto taxpayers.
SB 1314Assembly 20221x

Hindering Energy Production through a Prohibition on "Concentrated Carbon Dioxide Fluid" for Oil Extraction.

With DEMs
This bill bans the use of carbon dioxide fluid (collected through carbon capture technologies) from being utilized in oil extraction. This fluid serves as a helpful solvent in promoting oil flow. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill serves as yet another unnecessary barrier towards American energy production, ultimately harming the entire U.S. economy through higher energy costs.
SB 1327Assembly 20221x

Attacking Firearm Owners and Second Amendment Rights by Allowing Anyone to Sue Another Individual Who Constructs, Transports or Sells a Firearm Banned by the State.

With DEMs
This bill, modeled after the Texas law allowing anyone to file lawsuits alleging violations of abortion laws, allows anyone to sue another individual who constructs, transports or offers for sale a firearm banned by the state, such as an "assault weapon" or unserialized firearm. Like the Texas law, the bill offers bounties of at least $10,000 for prevailing claimants. fi. The bill even includes language that the provisions will become inoperative if the Texas statute is struck down by the Texas Supreme Court or U.S. Supreme Court. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as James Madison and our nation''s other founding fathers understood that the right to keep and bear arms is a crucial individual liberty and protects the citizenry against a tyrannical government. Lawmakers should not infringe the Second Amendment rights of their own state residents to politicize the actions taken by other states.
SB 1343Assembly 20221x

Threatening School Choice by Forcing Charter Schools to Participate in Costly State Retirement Programs.

With DEMs
This bill requires all new charter schools to participate in either the state''s Teachers'' Retirement System (CalSTRS) or the Public Employees'' Retirement System (CalPERS) as opposed to offering their own 401k style plans. This change would subject charter schools to additional regulations and costs. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this new mandate harms school choice by making it more costly to operate a charter school. This bill is primarily designed to help bail out the state pension system as California has some of the highest unfunded pension liabilities in the country.
SB 1375Assembly 20221x

Allowing Nurse Practitioners and Nurse Midwives to Take the Lives of Unborn Children Through Abortion without Supervision of a Doctor.

With DEMs
This bill permits nurse practitioners and nurse-midwives to perform first trimester abortions without the supervision of a physician. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as this bill allows over 20,000 additional individuals to now take the lives of the unborn. All abortions are tragedies and every child deserves the right to life.
SB 1391Assembly 20221x

Threatening Businesses with Higher Costs by Increasing the Stringency of the State''s Cap-and-Trade Program.

With DEMs
This bill authorizes the State Air Resources Board every three years to review and increase the stringency of the state''s cap-and-trade program for greenhouse gases. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as the state''s cap-and-trade program already places enormous unnecessary costs on businesses. This measure will further worsen the situation by allowing unaccountable government employees within ARB to inflict even greater harm to the state''s business climate.
SB 222Assembly 20221x

Growing Government Dependency by Providing "Water Rate Assistance" to Certain Utility Payers based on Income.

With DEMs
This bill creates a new "Water Rate Assistance Program" which would require taxpayers to subsidize the water and wastewater utility bills of certain individuals based on income. Oppose is the Club for Growth''s Position as further growing the size and scope of the government welfare state disincentivizes advancement and traps individuals into government dependency and poverty. The private sector, through charitable initiatives, is best equipped to help support those in need and work to make them self-sufficient.
