One new legislative proposal would require that ride
share drivers have the same background check as taxi and bus drivers. I
know back in ancient days when I had a license to hack a cab I had to
have the cops do my fingerprints and undergo a background check because
they don't want rapists, pervs and people who rolls drunks doing that
sort of work. Makes sense.
There
is also an interesting ballot proposition that so far isn't getting
much ink. If passed it would prohibit any member of the legislature who
voted for Proposition 50 from running for elected office in the state
for ten years. This mirrors the prohibition imposed on members of the
maybe now non-function citizens group who used to do legislative
boundaries. They were specifically prohibited from running for any
office for ten years as otherwise they might be tempted to tweak
boundaries for their personal benefit. Payback is a bitch. I would
however not bet on this one making it to the ballot. If it does I
wouldn't be surprised if it passed.
