The bills get their first reading after it is introduced and assigned a number. It then goes to committee. It gets a second reading everytime it moves between committees. Once it is done with the committees it will get a third reading which means it will be up for a vote. This will be a critical time.

Thanks for keeping us informed. Thought I'd post a review from your earlier post on what a third reading means.

RED ALERT!!! RED ALERT!!!

There are three bills ready for a vote in the Assembly. Two would turn the entire Sierra Nevada mountain range into a conservancy. The other one would give the state total control over water and private property. Unless these bills are stopped, you can give up on CA.

Ab 1788

RED ALERT, RED ALERT!!!

All bills are to third reading!!!

Ditto the post I just made to you on another thread.

In addition I'd say start the recall effort. I'm behind you.

The Sierra Fund, a Nevada City-based foundation that links donors with conservation projects, is a main proponent of a conservancy for the mountain range and is supporting Laird’s bill. But Izzy Martin, the fund’s Sierra Nevada campaign director and former Nevada County supervisor, said that to increase the chances that the conservancy proposal passes, there is hope that the two bills will become one.

Now there's a barf alert! Izzy Martin was a one-time elected supervisor who won by 12 votes and was defeated in the next primary over her fanatical advocacy of a land use survey/inventory/regulation scheme deceptively called "Natural Heritage 2020."

So nice she has a job, but she also has a very big axe to grind.
