California Senate Labor, Public Employment and Retirement Committee Passes AB5 Without Amendment

California Franchise Network

July 10, 2019

By: Thomas M. O’Connell

Executive Summary

The California Senate Labor, Public Employment and Retirement passed AB5 along party lines. The bill now moves to the Senate’s Appropriations Committee for consideration.

Analysis

On July 10, 2019, California Senate Labor, Public Employment and Retirement Committee passed AB5 without amendment. Votes were as follows:

Ayes

Gerald Hill (D) – 19th Senate District

Hannah-Beth Jackson (D) – 19th Senate District

Holly Mitchell (D) – 30th Senate District

Richard Pan (D) – 6th Senate District

Noes

Mike Morell (R) – 40th Senate District

NVR

None

The bill will now move to the California Senate Appropriations Committee.

Looking Forward

The fact that the Labor, Public Employment, and Retirement Committee passed AB5 along party lines is not surprising. However, the fact it moved out of this committee without amendment is quite surprising. There are still numerous industries that should receive consideration for carve outs from the Dynamex “ABC” Test and the bill is getting closer and closer to the governor’s desk with Appropriations and then the Senate At-Large left before it goes back to the Assembly.
