WONDERFULNESS IN THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CALIFORNIA

by Bob Walsh

This is a sample of the 700+ new laws that the formerly great state of California is dumping on it's citizens and residents in about three days.

AB-1475 substantially restricts the cops ability to release mugshots of criminal suspect on social media.  

AB-974 requires that persons who ride horses on paved roads must wear a helmet if they are under the age of 18.  Anyone riding at night must wear reflective clothing or have a tail light on their horse.  Really.

AB-37 will enshrine permanent vote by mail balloting in CA.  

A new law requires that people who supply Emotional Support Animals notify the purchaser in writing that these animals are not entitled to the same treatment as guide dogs and service animals.  It also places restrictions on doctors who recommend emotional support animals.  Among those requirements is that the doctor must have had a professional relationship of more than 30 days with the patient before making the recommendation.

AB-825 requires that companies who hold genetic data information must report data breaches to theircustomers.

AB-1033 requires that employers offer unpaid leave under the Family Rights Act to care for parents-in-law.

AB-286 makes it illegal for food delivery companies to appropriate tips intended for the drivers.
