ASSEMBLY BILL 3339 (BROWN – 1974)

CHAPTER 1367, STATUTES OF 1974

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.

Education Code sections 13337.7, 14009, and 24215, and Government Code section 20815 were added with the passage of Assembly Bill 3339 of 1974.  (See Exhibit #1e)  Assembly member Brown introduced this measure pertaining to school employees on March 7, 1974.  (See Exhibit #1a)

Assembly Bill 3339 was assigned to both the Assembly Committees on Education, Committee on Retirement and the Senate Committee on Education where policy issues raised by the bill were considered.  (See Exhibits #3, #4 and #7)  The fiscal ramifications of the bill were considered by the Assembly Committee on Ways and Means and the Senate Committee on Finance.  (See Exhibit #2)  Four amendments were made to Assembly Bill 3339 as the bill proceeded through both Houses.  (See Exhibits #1b through #1e and #2)  Subsequent to legislative approval, Governor Ronald Reagan signed the bill on September 26, 1974 and it was recorded by the Secretary of State on that day as Chapter 1367 of the Statutes of 1974.  (See Exhibit #1f)
 

An Enrolled Bill Report by the State Teachers’ Retirement System contained the following digest of Assembly Bill 3339:

The bill would allow certificated and academic employees of school districts and state universities and colleges to reduce their workload from full-time to part-time duties, and would permit members of STRS who are part-time employees to have their retirement benefits based on full-time employment if the employee and employer elect to make retirement contributions required for full-time employment.  In effect, this is a program for gradual retirement.
