July 10 was the deadline for bills in the California Legislature to be passed by the appropriate policy committees in the house other than the one they started in (Assembly for Senate bills; Senate for Assembly bills). Six bills have met this deadline and will continue to move forward through the legislative process:
· AB 574: Prohibiting Smoking
at Hospitals (Hill – D, San Mateo)
· AB 625: Prohibiting Sale or Distribution of Novelty Lighters (Lieu – D, Torrance)
· SB 4: Prohibiting Smoking in State Parks and State Beaches (Oropeza – D, Long Beach)
· SB 53: Authorizing the Attorney General to Negotiate Amendments to the Master Settlement Agreement (DeSaulnier – D, Concord)
· SB 364: Prohibiting Cancer Center Leadership from also Holding a Leadership Position for a Tobacco Company (Florez – D, Shafter)
· SB 400: Including Electronic Cigarettes in the Definition of a Tobacco Product (Corbett – D, San Leandro)
In addition, there have been several other significant legislative developments that have occurred in the past month related to these six bills and to other tobacco-related bills. These include SB 4 getting amended so that the prohibition on smoking in state parks would no longer be a requirement; SB 600: Increasing the State Tobacco Tax (Padilla – D, San Fernando Valley) getting placed on the suspense file of the Senate Revenue and Taxation Committee; and SB 603: Creating Annual Fee and Limiting Issuance of State Tobacco Retailer License (Padilla – D, San Fernando Valley) being pulled from consideration before a committee hearing so that it will not see further legislative action this year.
