Legislative History
California Collaboration for Youth
The California Collaboration for Youth has had a legislative presence in the State Capitol since 1981. The primary focus of the legislative program is to monitor issues which affect the Collaboration's members, their non-profit status, the rights, duties and responsibilities of board members and volunteers, and a variety of issues relating to the rights and welfare of our constituency, the youth we serve.
Over the past 22 years, the Collaboration has sponsored, co-sponsored, supported or opposed many important measures. The following pages contain the highlights of those measures; bills which are underlined indicate that CCFY either sponsored the measure of took the lead in the passage or defeat of the measure.
Taxation on Snack Foods
TAXATION ON SNACK FOODS
Proposition 163 - 1992 - Passed by voters on the November 1992 ballot, Proposition 163 changes the Constitution to make the taxation of snack food illegal. Legislation introduced during the 1993 Legislative Session, SB 705 (Greene) removed outdated language pertaining to snack foods from state statue.
SB 1473 (Kopp) SB 30 (Boatwright) 1992 - These measures proposed making non-profit youth groups "retailers" for the purpose of charging them tax on their purchase of cookies, candy and other snack foods. Strongly opposed by CCFY, these bills were defeated in the Assembly Revenue and Taxation Committee.
SB 5X (Boatwright), SB 2X (Deddeh) and AB 2181 (Vasconcellos) 1991 - These measures call for the taxation of cookies, candy and other snack foods in an effort to bridge the gap between state revenues and expenditures.

AB 1428 (W. Brown) AB 105 (Moore) 1983 - These tax loop-hole correction measures called for the taxation of candy and confectionery. CCFY opposition brought about specific amendments exempting non-profit youth-serving organizations whose profits from such sales were used to provide programs for children and youth. Both of these measures were defeated.
TAXATION AND FEES ON NON-PROFITS
AB 2523 (Cunneen) 1996 - This bill was introduced in response to an Attorney General opinion stating that under certain circumstances, cities and counties could impose a business fee, license fee or tax if it was measured by standards other than income or gross receipts as specified in previous legislation and constitutional amendment. This bill would prohibit these entities from charging such fees or taxes under any circumstances. Co-sponsored by CCFY, the bill was signed into law by Governor Wilson.
SB 626 /SCR 15 (Roberti) 1993 - This measure provides that no business license fee or tax may be imposed on non-profit organizations already exempt under state and federal statutes by local governments. This bill would become effective if a ballot measure was successfully approved by the voters at the next general election. Strongly supported by CCFY, this measure was passed.
Proposition 176 1994 - This ballot measure was successfully passed by the voters and puts the provisions of SB 626 (Roberti) into the State Constitution. Under the provisions of this proposition, no business license fee or tax may be imposed on non-profit organizations. This proposition became effective on election day, June 7,1994.
State Board of Equalization 1983 - Considered taxation on meals sold at summer camps and during excursions. The Board subsequently took the position that non-profit youth serving organizations should be exempt.
CHARITABLE SOLICITATIONS
AB 1900 (Friedman) 1994 - This measure requires minors 16 and under who are involved in door-to door solicitations and the individuals who transport them, to register with the State Labor Commissioner. Registrants would be required to submit door-to-door permit applications and to pay a fee or be subject to fines up to $10,000. In its original version, non-profits would have been required to meet the provisions of the bill.
Amendments proposed by CCFY and adopted by the author completely exempt 501 (c) 3 non-profits. With these amendments, CCFY withdrew its opposition and supported the measure. The bill was signed into law and became effective January 1,1995.
AB 3443 (Connolly) 1994 - This bill would prohibit any individual or other entity who, for compensation, solicits funds for charitable purposes from retaining more than 50% of the money collected as a fee for fundraising services. Supported by CCFY, the bill was signed into law.

AB 1916 (Harris) 1987 - This measure requires that the fiscal burden for the investigation, enforcement and prosecution of bogus charities be paid by the organizations being prosecuted.

AB 3130 (McAlister) 1986 - This measure would have required all charitable corporations to register with the Attorney General and to pay a fee equal to one-tenth of one percent of their annual income.

CCFY opposed the measure and it was dropped.
AB 3260 (McAlister) 1984 - This bill would have required all non-profit organizations to register with the Attorney General's office, fingerprint volunteers, follow mandated bookkeeping practices, pay a substantial yearly fee and a $10,000 fine for any violation of these provisions. Opposed by CCFY and other non-profit organizations, the bill was defeated.

At CCFY's request, an amendment was added to exempt 501(c)3 non-profit youth serving organizations from these provisions.

CHARITABLE DEDUCTIONS/CONTRIBUTIONS

The Governor cited "liability concerns" in his veto message and indicated he would be willing to sign a future bill which addressed these concerns. CCFY sponsored this bill.
SB 399 (Hart) 1993 - Originally this measure did not contain language concerning the Civic Center Act.

The measure failed in the Assembly.
AB 3723 (Klehs) 1994 - This measure, strongly opposed by CCFY, would have required the Department of Justice to charge all organizations requesting record checks an amount sufficient to cover the costs associated with the development of an expedited criminal records system. Currently non-profit organizations are exempt from having to pay for criminal record checks as provided in AB 1976 (N. Waters) passed in 1985.

SB 1264 (Lockyer) 1992 - Prior law, which was repealed by its own sunset provisions, provided that persons serving without compensation as directors or officers of non-profit organizations were exempt from personal liability. This measure extended that provision indefinitely. Strongly supported by CCFY, the bill was signed into law.

CHILD CARE
SB 1678 (Hart) 1994 - This measure, co-sponsored by Girl Scouts and the California Collaboration for Youth, establishes more appropriate requirements for school-age daycare.

SB 2397 (Seymour) 1986 - The original version of this measure required all organizations providing recreational programs to be licensed by the Department of Social Services as day care providers.

The professional person offering such services is required to make efforts to notify the minor's parents or guardian.

Public Utilities Commission Opinion 1991 - The PUC determined that transportation provided for children to camps operated by non-profit groups would be exempt from PUC oversight as charter party carriers. The decision was based on the determination that transportation provided by non-profits is not done on a commercial basis. The opinion did not extend to exempt for-profit camps however, despite the fact that the transportation they provide is arguably on the same basis.
GIRL SCOUTS/BOY SCOUTS
SB 1736 (Kelley) 1996 - This measure would authorize the Dept. of Parks & Recreation to extend an agreement with the San Diego Co. Council of Boy Scouts for the use of a portion of Cuyamaca Rancho State Park as a recreational camp. Signed into law.

The Act appropriated $15 million to youth centers and $10 million to youth shelters, including shelters for abused and neglected youth. CCFY staff served on the California Youth Authority Advisory Committee overseeing the implementation of the Act.
MANDATORY SEAT BELT USE
AB 6 (Elder) 1987 - CCFY supported this measure when it was introduced because it contained a provision to require installation of seat belts in school buses. The bill was amended however, to delete that provision when a CHP study was cited which concluded that having seat belts installed on school buses were not effective in reducing bus accident injuries. With that language deletion the CCFY withdrew its support.
Highway Patrol Study 1987 - A legislatively mandated California Highway Patrol study concluded that it was not feasible to install seat belts in school buses and recommended against having them installed. This same year a National Traffic Safety Commission study also determined that seat belts were not needed in school buses. The primary basis for the conclusion reached in both studies had more to do with inadequate bus construction which, in many cases, failed to keep seats securely fastened to the floor during an accident.
AB 4061 (Elder) 1986 - This measure, supported by CCFY, would have required seat belts to be installed on school buses. The measure was defeated in the Senate Transportation Committee as a result of opposition by Greyhound and other bus companies.
AB 1974 (Molina) 1986 - Originally this measure called for the use of seat belts in school buses. The bill was amended however to require the California Highway Patrol to conduct a study on the safety and feasibility of having buses equipped with seat belts.

STATE BUDGET ITEMS
AB 90 Budget Restoration - 1989 - CCFY supported efforts to get funds restored to the state budget that would support juvenile justice programs, battered women's shelters, family counseling services, children's services and programs for abused and neglected children. This proposed budget cut was defeated. The following year the Governor implemented a county "realignment" proposal sending a specified amount of money to counties to spend according to their own priorities.
CHILD ABUSE REPORTING
AB 1133 (O'Connell) 1991 - This bill originally called for volunteers to be included among those individuals required to report suspected or known incidents of child abuse to authorities. Failure to do so could have subjected the volunteer to criminal and civil penalties. CCFY recommended and received an amendment which instead encourages volunteers to obtain training in the recognition of child abuse and to report instances of suspected abuse.
VOLUNTEERS
SB 963 (Watson) 1993 - This measure would have prohibited sexual harassment or any other discrimination against a volunteer or between volunteers, with protections similar to those provided to paid employees. However, the bill would have had the affect of holding the organization responsible for the actions of its volunteers, rather than the volunteer. CCFY sought amendments and ultimately opposed the measure, which was defeated.
AB 1133 (O'Connell) 1991 - This bill originally called for volunteers to be included among those individuals required to report suspected or known incidents of child abuse to authorities. Failure to do so could have subjected the volunteer to criminal and civil penalties. CCFY recommended and received an amendment which instead encourages volunteers to obtain training in the recognition of child abuse and to report instances of suspected abuse.
SCHOOL UNIFORMS
SB 1269 (Wyman) 1994 - This measure allows public schools to adopt school uniform policies dictating dress code standards. CCFY successfully gained an amendment which allows official youth organization uniforms to be worn on days when their organizations have scheduled activities. Signed into law.
UNEMPLOYMENT COMPENSATION
SB 1157 (Mountjoy), AB 1821 (Battin) 1995 - These bills provide that unemployment compensation benefits paid to a claimant who left the employer's employ to take a substantially better job are not chargeable to the account of the employer. The bills would also define misconduct to include insubordination including deliberate disobedience of an employer or authorized representative, any violation of a law of this state or violation of an employer's rule that created a substantial risk of damage to the employer's property or interests or of danger to the life of an employee. CCFY took support positions; both bills were signed into law.
