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.

An Enrolled Bill Memorandum to Governor Brown on September 9, 1982, summarized Assembly Bill 3229 as follows:

This bill would specify that Los Angeles County must provide the same life, disability, hospital or health insurance benefits for retired members as it does for its active members. The bill also provides that these benefits would remain in effect for as long as similar benefits are provided any active members in county service.
