After a summer, characterized by masked federal agents retaining immigrants in Los Angeles, California’s legislation adopted two measures on Thursday, which seek to force law enforcement officers.
The bills of the Senate 627 and 805 were among the most notorious, who passed in the last days of this year’s legislative session. They would ban locals, outside the countries and federal law enforcement officers of Supporting facial coversas well as requires employees to be easily recognizablerespectively.
The measures crossed party lines, such as Republicans in opposition. Police unions also oppose the proposed ban on the mask.
Although today it should be the last day of the session, legislators are expected to extend their work on Saturday to give final votes to some deals at the last moment they have achieved this week. Those who pass will head to the Gavor News’ desk for his signature or veto, and those who are not dead for the year.

As one of the best to lobby California last year, Google has poured millions of dollars to influence the government’s government. But his involvement in some suggestions is not always clear, emphasizing the theft ways in which the technological giant tries to form policiesReport CalMatters’ Harry Johnson and Yue Stella YuS
He quietly orchestrated a California proposed campaign and was so steal that legislators did not see the company’s fingerprints until Calmatters informed them.
In April, the company began to turn to small business using emails lists by calling them to sign a petition opposed to a measure that will require browsers to give way to users to say websites automatically not to share their personal information With third parties.
However, this propaganda campaign did not seem to be coming directly from Google, but more recently the “related trading advice”, which Google supports financially. Google himself has never taken a public position on the measure.
Although Google’s tactics are not illegal, it causes concern among some defenders who are critical of Big Tech’s influence.
In sections of the San Joaquin Valley, which rarely receive enough water to grow food, farmers and ranches facing fruitless, dried land, have the opportunity to generate a new crop: solar energy. But a bill that aims to encourage more farmers to install solar panels Divide the farmerswrites Calmatters’ Rachel BeckerS
According to a 60-year law known as the Williamson Act, farmers can conclude contracts with local authorities that allow them to pay less than their ownership tax as long as they use their land for agriculture. To cancel the contract before the end of its time leads to steep penalty fees.
But AB 1156If accepted, it would allow farmers to stop contracts and avoid fees if they use their land to capture solar energy, although their ownership tax will still increase. The bill will help the state achieve its clean energy goals, as the generation of solar energy requires hundreds of thousands of acres.
Although some farmers welcome alternative use for their dried land, others claim that the bill undermines agricultural regions and stops in the neighboring economies that help the agricultural industry operate.
CalMatters columnist Dan Walters: It has been more than a year since California adopted a law to increase the minimum wage for fast food workers, but it is still unclear what its impact was both the industry and the workersS
