SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California lawmakers on Tuesday advanced a bill that would let legislative leaders raise and spend more money to help their preferred candidates.Their vote came despite opposition from open-government groups who argued the bill would spur more pay-to-play politics at the Capitol.The bill would let leaders in the Legislature operate fundraising committees governed like state and county party committees. Such committees have higher contribution limits than regular campaigns and can give unlimited amounts to help state candidates.Senators voted 3-2 to advance the bill out of a committee.Lawmakers supporting the proposal argue it would help them combat the influence of independent expenditures. They also argue the bill would increase transparency by requiring more frequent disclosures by party and legislative leadership committees. 873

Roughly 27 million Americans are claiming some form of unemployment according to the Department of Labor as of late August, and that means millions are without employer-provided health insurance benefits.An estimated 12 million people in this country have lost their health insurance during the COVID-19 pandemic, based on research from the Economic Policy Institute. The group looked at net employment levels between February and August 2020, and job churn levels to estimate losses of health insurance coverage.They say roughly 6.2 million workers right now have lost health insurance that they previously got through their employer. The number was closer to 9 million initially in March and April, but estimates show roughly 2.9 million workers have gotten jobs between April and July.When you consider spouses and family members covered by a person’s employer-provided health insurance benefit, the number of Americans without health insurance during the pandemic is estimated around 12 million.The study also looked at opportunities to get coverage. They found Medicaid in certain states has been increasing enrollment, with five million additional people signing up between February and June 2020.For people who find themselves in this situation, there are some options. It basically comes down to three options: through COBRA, on the Affordable Care Act subsidized marketplace or by enrolling in a public plan like Medicaid or Medicare.If a spouse has employer-provided benefits, or a parent if you are 26 or younger, look into joining their plan within 30 days of losing benefits. 1596

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (KGTV) - A California lawmaker is proposing a series of new laws that would increase police records transparency and reform the state's 9-1-1 system.State Senator Nancy Skinner's Senate Bill 776 would expand public access to all records involving police use of force, provide access to all disciplinary records involving officers who have engaged in racist, homophobic, or anti-Semitic behavior, and allow the public access to sustained findings of wrongful arrests and wrongful searches.It would also require access to the above records even when an officer resigns before the agency's investigation is complete and mandates that an agency, before hiring any candidate who has prior law enforcement experience, to inquire and review the officer's prior history of complaints, disciplinary hearings, and uses of force among other things."The purpose of my bill, SB 776, is to expand our ability to get records on a whole host of different officer misconduct and disciplinary actions so that we can hold agencies accountable and so we can begin to build trust again," Skinner said.The proposal comes after Skinner's Senate Bill 1421 changed decades-old law enforcement transparency laws.SB 1421, which went into effect in 2019, requires departments to release records of officer-involved shootings and major uses of force, officer dishonesty, and confirmed cases of sexual assault to the public.Shortly after the bill became law, several police associations in San Diego County sued to block the release of records, arguing Senate Bill 1421 doesn't contain any express provision or language requiring retro-activity or any clear indication that the legislature intended the statute to operate retroactively. They claimed the bill eliminates the longstanding statutory confidentiality of specified peace officer or custodial officer personnel records.A judge ruled SB 1421 applies retroactively to all records.Senator Skinner also proposed SB 773.According to her office, the bill would reform the state's 9-1-1 system so that calls concerning mental health, homelessness, and other issues not requiring police intervention can go to an appropriate social services agency. 2197

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Insurance claims have topped billion for the November wildfires in California, making them the most expensive in state history.The figure released Wednesday by Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara covers the fire that destroyed the town of Paradise and two Southern California blazes.Most of the damages relate to the Paradise fire, which killed 85 people and destroyed nearly 19,000 buildings."While last year's tragic wildfires turned thousands of people's lives upside down, insurance is helping to rebuild and recover," Lara said in a news release during Wildfire Preparedness Week.California experienced some of its deadliest and most destructive wildfires in its history in 2017 and 2018. A series of sweeping fires in late 2017 had been the most expensive, with claims topping .8 billion.The increasing destruction is making it harder and more costly for people to obtain homeowners insurance.The insurance department has started collecting data on policy non-renewals to better assess patterns and locations where coverage is being dropped, Lara said earlier this year.When insurers decline to renew policies, state law requires them to notify customers about other options. The state has a pooled insurance plan of last result known as the "FAIR plan."California lawmakers are grappling this year with ways to address the cost and destruction of wildfires.Pacific Gas & Electric Corp., the state's largest utility, filed for bankruptcy in January, saying it could not afford potentially tens of billions of dollars in liability costs related to fires.State law makes utilities financially liable for damages from wildfires caused by their equipment, even if they aren't found to be negligent. 1745

According to Cal Matters, those in favor of the measure, including Governor Gavin Newsom, say it will focus on modernizing schools as opposed to new construction. Those against proposition 13, including the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association, say it would cause an increase in local property taxes and add to state debt and interest costs. “Like all bond debt, that must be paid ahead of any other priorities, even law enforcement,” the association says. “If there is a recession, too much debt puts us at risk of a reduction in services or demands for emergency tax increases at the worst possible time.”RELATED: Here's what happens if Measure C passesClick here to read more from the association.
