I can’t think of 100 bills that California needs, let alone 1200.

Indeed. And it’s not just the number of bills, but the speed in which they are written, passed, and signed into law. It’s like a contest amongst “legislators” as to who can write the most bills.

A blessed Sabbath, Gerbil Nation!
Good morning, Sven!

I really despise California’s “gut and amend” process for legislation. It should be outlawed.

California govt -- focusing on the important things.

California now has an official state seashell — the black abalone.

A smooth, oval-shaped shell that is dark in color, the black abalone was used by Native American tribes for food, trade, jewelry and ceremonial wear. Now, they’re an endangered species living along the California and Baja California coast.

Assembly member Diane Dixon, R-Newport Beach, who authored the legislation, said the designation of the black abalone as the California state seashell will highlight the state’s natural resources.

“I have nearly 40 miles of the Orange County coastline in my Assembly district, and this measure encourages all Californians to help protect our beautiful shore,” Dixon said. “People come from all over the world to explore our beaches and learn about the ocean and marine life.”

The legislation was approved unanimously in the Assembly and Senate.

Authored by a Republican, no less. I’m glad all of the problems that California and Californians face have been solved.
