Charter Bill Results Roll in as Legislative Session Ends

SACRAMENTO — The California Legislature has officially wrapped up the first year of the legislative session, going a day into overtime to finish voting on a plethora of bills.

Last night on September 12th, AB 84 and SB 494 — two concerning bills for charter schools that CPC has been monitoring — were put in the inactive file. This means the bills may be resurrected in January if their authors so choose.

Earlier today, SB 414 was passed, and it now goes to the Governor’s desk for a signature or veto. Anyone who wants to urge the Governor to act one way or the other on SB 414 should contact the Governor as soon as possible. While his deadline to act on the bill is October 13th, he can take action as soon as he chooses.
