Summary:
The Senate Public Safety Committee met first as a subcommittee because it lacked a quorum, then later reconvened with a quorum to take formal action. The committee heard SB 239, which would allow a sentencing aggravation factor for criminal threats made against local election officials and other local public officials. The author and supporters, including the California Municipal Clerks Association and Monterey County, said the bill responds to rising threats and intimidation against election workers and local officials; there was no opposition. The committee later voted to concur in the Assembly amendments and passed the bill 6-0.
The committee also heard AB 282, which would make it a felony to seize, assist in seizing, or direct the seizure of ballots, election records, or certified voting technology before election results are certified. Supporters, including SEIU California, argued the bill would protect election integrity and prevent disruption of certification; one witness registered a “tweener” position, expressing concern about creating a new crime. Some members questioned whether the bill duplicated existing law or addressed a real California problem, but others supported it as a proactive safeguard. The committee voted to send the bill to the Elections Committee on a 5-1 vote.
AB 2727, as amended, was presented as a measure to strengthen the review process for elderly parole and sexually violent predator cases by requiring a sexual dangerousness screening, additional Board of Parole Hearings training, and related safeguards. Support came from prosecutors, sheriffs, police chiefs, and victims’ advocates, who said the bill would help ensure dangerous offenders are properly screened before release. Several members raised concerns about the bill’s new 180-day timeframe for completing reviews, arguing it could hold people in custody longer than necessary and should be shortened or reworked, but others said the added time was needed to complete the process. The committee passed AB 2727 to Appropriations on a 5-1 vote.
Finally, the committee heard AB 2760, which would prohibit federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies from purchasing or using electric shock gloves and similar wearable conducted-energy devices. Supporters, including immigrant rights, disability rights, and criminal justice groups, argued the devices are unsafe, untested, and especially concerning in immigration enforcement settings. Law enforcement opposition said the bill would ban an emerging less-lethal tool before it has been adequately studied and would not apply to federal agencies anyway, while some members said they were uneasy about banning new technology without more research but still supported the bill. The committee sent AB 2760 to Appropriations on a 5-1 vote.
