CA Regulatory Explainer: Overview of the California Rulemaking Process

CA Regulatory Explainer: Overview of the California Rulemaking Process  By Chris Micheli   California has over 200 State agencies, departments, boards, and commissions that make public policy through their authority to adopt regulations. A list of State agencies that have adopted regulations can be found on the website of California’s Office of Administrative Law (OAL), which is found at www.oal.ca.gov   OAL’s website also provides direct access to the California Code of Regulations (CCR), which is organized under various subject matter titles, of which there are 28 titles. These titles contain the over 60,000 state regulations that are currently in effect.   California’s Administrative Procedure Act (APA) contains required procedures for rule-making and administrative hearings conducted by all of these agencies and departments. The APA is found at Chapter 3.5, 4 and 5 commencing with Section 11340 of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code. ...

An Orientation to the California State Capitol and Swing Space for Lobby Day Attendees

An Orientation to the California State Capitol and Swing Space for Lobby Day Attendees  By Chris Micheli             This article is intended to provide an orientation to the California State Capitol and its accompanying Swing Space for individuals participating in a lobby day.   The State Capitol The California State Capitol is the seat of state government, located in Sacramento. The building houses the chambers of the State Legislature, which is comprised of the Assembly and the Senate, We often refer to this building as the historic side of the Capitol.

Additions and Amendments to California’s Constitution

Additions and Amendments to California’s Constitution  By Chris Micheli To preface this brief article, I readily admit to being a legislative geek as I read and researched our state’s constitution. The current (and second) California Constitution was adopted in 1879. The first one was adopted in 1849, the year before California became a state. Several of its original sections remain unchanged since their adoption 146 years ago. Of course, while the Legislature or the people can place constitutional amendments on the statewide ballot, they are adopted by a majority vote of the electors. By my calculation, there have been just over 355 changes to the state Constitution since its original adoption in 1879. By my count, the current state Constitution contains 32 Articles and 371 sections. Note that 11 of those Articles have been added in their entirety and not changed since their adoption. Contained in those 32 Articles are 243 added sections and 113 amended sections since 1879...
