Pending Senate Bill 1005 (Florez – 2007)
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.
Labor Code section 3762 is proposed to be amended by Senate Bill 1005 of the current 2007-2008 Legislative Session.

Senate Bill 1005 was assigned to the Senate Committee on Labor and Industrial Relations where policy issues raised by the bill were considered. (See Exhibits #2 and #3)
Senate Bill 1005, as last amended on March 28, 2007, described this bill, in part, as follows:
