SB 777 (2007) c. 569

Some bill research does not include the Governor's file because at the time we researched the bill, the sitting Governor had not released his chaptered bill file. If the Governor's file is not included with this particular research, please contact our office (1-530-666-1917 or quote@legintent.com) and we will be happy to provide this file at no charge if it is available. Please Note: Governor files did not exist prior to 1943.

SB 777, c. 569: Discrimination re education. Revises the current list of prohibited bases of discrimination and the kinds of prohibited instruction, activities, and instructional materials in the Education Code, and instead refers to the protected characteristics contained in the definition of hate crimes in the Penal Code. Also defines disability, gender, nationality, race or ethnicity, religion, and sexual orientation for this purpose.  This bill changes the current references to "handicapped" individuals in the Education Code to, instead, refer to individuals with physical disabilities.
