The measure passed on a roll call, 54-11.

Assemblymember Buffy Wicks presented the legislation portion of the budget package as \"SB 119, our human services trailer bill,\" and Assemblymember Gabriel, who presented the bill on the floor, said: \"I am pleased today to present SB 119. This bill makes changes to our CalWORKs program to improve early engagement and help families find pathways to exit poverty.\" Gabriel also said the bill will \"emphasize community based support and family preservation and thereby reduce disparities in the child welfare system.\"

Why it matters: SB 119 changes how California administers core safety-net programs. Supporters described it as a people-centered effort to prevent hunger and help families stabilize through adjustments to CalWORKs and CalFresh-related policy and to strengthen training for mandated reporters in child welfare.

Supporters on the floor said SB 119 modernizes the state's safety net and addresses gaps left by federal budget changes. \"If we want to build a state where every child has a chance to succeed, where no one goes hungry,\" Assemblymember Doctor Sharpless Collins said in urging support, the legislature must invest in CalWORKs and CalFresh. Assemblymember Brian argued the bill was necessary to respond to federal cuts and to protect families.

Opponents criticized the bill for weakening accountability and imposing burdens on taxpayers and counties. \"SB 119 is exactly the problem that taxpayers are crying out for a solution to,\" Assemblymember De Maio said on the floor, arguing the bill includes \"0 reforms to the CalFresh program to deal with the erroneous payment rate\" and that the state had a high erroneous-payment rate in CalFresh. Assemblymember McKenner said the bill \"imposes harsh new work requirements on CalFresh recipients\" and warned it could remove food benefits from hundreds of thousands of Californians.

The floor debate also addressed child-welfare provisions. Gabriel and other supporters said the bill requires development of a standardized curriculum for mandated reporters intended to emphasize community-based supports and family preservation. Supporters said the change is meant to reduce disparities in the child-welfare system; opponents expressed concern about program implementation and county costs.

Formal action: The clerk opened the roll and the measure passed on a roll call vote, Ayes 54, Nos 11. The clerk recorded the tally and announced \"The measure passes.\" The transcript shows the bill was presented under the Senate third reading file as a budget-related measure affecting public social services.

What remains unspecified in the floor record: the bill text refinements and detailed fiscal allocations were discussed in committee and budget subcommittee work referenced by presenters but were not read into the floor record. The transcript does not supply line-item fiscal amounts or a list of specific housing or homelessness programs funded; those details are in the bill text and the budget documents, not in the floor debate.

Assembly action on SB 119 completes the Assembly's floor approval; the transcript records the floor passage but does not show subsequent enrollment or the governor's action.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Assembly Floor Session (1)","oneSentenceSummary","The California State Assembly on June 4 passed SB 119, the human services trailer bill that adjusts CalWORKs and requires standardized child-welfare reporter training; the measure passed 54-11.","taxTitle","California State Assembly, House, Legislative, California","taxId",17099,"location","California","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6551989,"Votes at a glance: Assembly acts on budget and consent items June 4",17,2568785,2586425,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5322109-e9a55083c51565bd58e6228d48236d2f&start=2568&end=2586","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5322109-e9a55083c51565bd58e6228d48236d2f/thumbnail_2568785.jpg","/articles/6551989/California/Votes-at-a-glance-Assembly-acts-on-budget-and-consent-items-June-4","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6551989-bcf4cc7aa8410c98b51cd63075db6370/orig.mp4?Expires=1770619193&Signature=SJ~Dtou-vBX~yhNUgsk0fE6wQdEevY~U11gtw9-t34LAMivYlNdtRmfLLYMM5np5j3hMoHGS9mN~jjROf3vs9p60flK20JqR86Nfme1Z38~6ZVbc0LJ6xfc3EQl7I9KOjQHe-PxxzAm~nhTT7voAuMuA5WH2o8Tnd1tTqjR1GY9NHzBTFh46HgJq66tsz~AYEbzoWZzXJDuWbBTT1eGrtgcUwjHA3TjwvJ4navDVhTsr6BZFCN9eWBzPwpcQowm0dUoh-eFJ8KLAk-UIN5l39uHo4SN7QjZimZ-e6SNBYtBpP4CBBXxGaEXwvR~rR0cHtjlUM7stvut7QebYx0vqzw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The California State Assembly took several floor votes on June 4, including concurrence on AB 1416 (taxation) and adoption of the second-day consent calendar.

The chamber adopted the resolution by voice vote after the author and several members described ginseng's cultural and health significance and introduced a visiting delegation from the Republic of Korea.

Assemblymember Quirk Silva, the resolution's author, said the day would \"honor the excellence of Korean ginseng and the deep cultural ties between the United States and Korea,\" and described ginseng as \"a symbol of wisdom, tradition, and resilience.\" Quirk Silva noted a large Korean American population in his district and asked members for their support.

Assemblymember Mark Gonzalez and other joint authors spoke in support. Gonzalez told members he is a \"frequent consumer of ginseng\" and urged colleagues to support the resolution. The clerk opened the roll for co-authors and the floor added 62 co-authors without objection. The Assembly then took a voice vote and the speaker announced \"The ayes have it. The resolution is adopted.\"

The floor record includes multiple guest introductions tied to the resolution. Quirk Silva introduced visitors from Korea, including officials and representatives from the Korea Agro Trade Center and Korea Ginseng Corp., and told members that ginseng tea had been placed on members' desks.

Formal action: ACR 1 was adopted by voice vote following addition of 62 co-authors. The resolution proclaims October 23 as a day to recognize Korean ginseng; it is ceremonial and does not appropriate funds.

What the floor record does not include: The resolution text in full and any state actions beyond the ceremonial recognition (no appropriation or regulatory change was included in the floor remarks).","The Assembly adopted Assembly Concurrent Resolution 1 on June 4, 2025, establishing Korean Ginseng Day (Oct. 23) to honor the cultural and health significance of Korean ginseng. The resolution drew ceremonial remarks, guest introductions and 62 co-authors before adoption by voice vote.","actionData","errors"]
