An act to amend Section 18901.4 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, relating to CalFresh. Sections 1043 and 1045 of the Evidence Code, and to amend Sections 6254 and 12525.5 of the Government Code, relating to racial and identity profiling.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 1039, as amended, Quirk-Silva.
CalFresh: nonminor dependents: supervised independent living placement. Racial and identity profiling: reporting: peace officer.
Existing law, the Racial and Identity Profiling Act of 2015, requires the Attorney General to establish the Racial and Identity Profiling Advisory Board (RIPA) to eliminate racial and identity profiling and to improve diversity and racial and identity sensitivity in law enforcement. Existing law requires the board, among other duties, to work in partnership with state and local law enforcement agencies to review and analyze racial and identity profiling policies and practices across geographic areas in California.
Existing law requires each state and local agency that employs peace officers to annually report to the Attorney General data on all stops, as defined, conducted by the agency’s peace officers for the preceding calendar year. Existing law requires the
reporting to include specified information for each stop, including the time, date, and location of the stop; the reason for the stop; the perceived race or ethnicity, gender, and approximate age of the person stopped, provided that the identification of these characteristics be based on the observation and perception of the peace officer making the stop, and the information not be requested from the person stopped; and specified actions taken by the peace officer during the stop. Existing law requires that the data reported be available to the public, except for the badge number or other unique identifying information of the peace officer involved, which is released to the public only to the extent the release is permissible under state law.
The California Public Records Act requires a state or local agency, as defined, to make public records available for inspection, subject to certain exceptions. Existing law provides that peace officer or custodial officer
personnel records, as defined, and records maintained by any state or local agency relating to complaints against peace officers and custodial officers, or information obtained from those records, are confidential and prohibits the disclosure of those records in any criminal or civil proceeding except by discovery. Existing law describes exceptions to this policy for investigations or proceedings concerning the conduct of peace officers or custodial officers, or an agency or department that employs those officers, conducted by a grand jury, a district attorney’s office, or the Attorney General’s office.
This bill would specify that the name or other means of identifying a peace officer in connection with the information that the peace officer collects pursuant to the Racial and Identity Profiling Act of 2015, as described above, is not subject to disclosure under the California Public Records Act. The bill would also state, in related provisions, that nothing in the
Racial and Identity Profiling Act of 2015 was or is intended to allow public access to, or disclosure of, that information, as specified. The bill would also make technical, nonsubstantive changes to those provisions.
Existing constitutional provisions require that a statute that limits the right of access to the meetings of public bodies or the writings of public officials and agencies be adopted with findings demonstrating the interest protected by the limitation and the need for protecting that interest.
This bill would make legislative findings to that effect.
The California Constitution requires local agencies, for the purpose of ensuring public access to the meetings of public bodies and the writings of public officials and agencies, to comply with a statutory enactment that amends or enacts laws relating to public records or open
meetings and contains findings demonstrating that the enactment furthers the constitutional requirements relating to this purpose.
This bill would make legislative findings to that effect.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
Existing law establishes the Aid to Families with Dependent Children-Foster Care (AFDC-FC) program, under which counties provide payments to foster care providers on behalf of qualified children in foster care. The program is funded by a combination of federal, state, and county funds. Existing law extends AFDC-FC benefits to specified nonminor dependents up to 21 years of age, in accordance with federal provisions. Existing law requires a child or nonminor dependent, in order to be eligible for AFDC-FC benefits, to be placed in one of specified placements. Existing law establishes, as one of those placements, with respect to a nonminor dependent, a supervised independent living placement, defined as an independent supervised setting, as specified in a nonminor dependent’s transitional independent living case plan, in which the youth is living independently pursuant to federal
provisions.
Existing federal law provides for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), known in California as CalFresh, under which supplemental nutrition assistance benefits allocated to the state by the federal government are distributed to eligible individuals by each county and administered by the State Department of Social Services. Existing law, effective July 1, 2010, required the department to propose a Transitional Food Stamps for Foster Youth demonstration project under which certain independent foster care adolescents, as defined, are eligible for the project without regard to income or resources, subject to federal law authorizing demonstration projects, as specified. Existing law required the department, no later than March 1, 2010, to seek all necessary federal approvals to implement the project and requires the project to be implemented only to the extent that federal financial participation is available.
This bill would make a nonminor dependent residing in a supervised independent living placement eligible for CalFresh benefits without regard to income or resources. The bill would require the nonminor dependent to receive the maximum benefit amount allotted for a household size of one. If the nonminor dependent is a custodial parent, the bill would require that he or she receive the maximum benefit amount allotted for his or her household size. The bill would require the department to seek all necessary federal approvals to implement these provisions and would require that these provisions be implemented only to the extent that federal financial participation is available. By increasing the duties of local officials, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state.
Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.

and perception of the peace officer making the stop, and the information shall not be requested from the person stopped.

Notwithstanding any other law, the data reported shall be available to the public, except for the badge number or other unique identifying information of the peace officer involved, which shall be released to the public only to the extent the release is permissible under state law.
Nothing in the act that added this section was or is intended to allow public access to, or disclosure of, the name or other means of identifying a peace officer in connection with the information that the peace officer collects pursuant to subdivisions (a), (b), and (c), as the disclosure of that information could reasonably constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy and jeopardize the safety of that peace officer and his or her family.

The Legislature finds and declares that Section 3 of this act, which amends Section 6254 of the Government Code, imposes a limitation on the public’s right of access to the meetings of public bodies or the writings of public officials and agencies within the meaning of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution. Pursuant to that constitutional provision, the Legislature makes the following findings to demonstrate the interest protected by this limitation and the need for protecting that interest:In order to protect the privacy of a peace
officer who collects information pursuant to the Racial and Identity Profiling Act of 2015, and the privacy of his or her family, and in order to protect their safety, it is necessary to limit the public’s right of access to the name and other means of identifying the peace officer.
SEC. 6.

Pursuant to paragraph (7) of subdivision (b) of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution, the Legislature makes the following findings:This act balances the right of the public to access information reported pursuant to the Racial and Identity Profiling Act of 2015 with the privacy interest of a peace officer who collects that information and the privacy interest of his or her family, thereby furthering the purposes of paragraph (7) of subdivision (b) of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution.
