Call to Action – Opposition Needed on AB 2557

The AB 2557 (Ortega) “Oppose” Coalition is asking for your immediate assistance with members of the Senate Appropriations Committee. Time is short – please call the offices today!

AB 2557 is currently on the Committee’s suspense file, and the Coalition has met with every member of the Committee. But more is needed. In advance of the suspense file hearing on Thursday, August 15, 2024, we need CFCA members to reach out to the committee members listed below if you know them or have a relationship with them and ask them to vote no. Attached is the coalition letter for your talking points. 

Please let Legislative Assistant Brett Moore now at bmoore@calchiefs.org if you can help with any of the below listed committee members. 

AB 2557 would impose new requirements on the governing bodies of local agencies that wish to contract out for certain services, as specified, including posting contracts and related documents on the local agency’s website and providing advance notice to the public agency’s affected workforce union representative, as specified. The bill would also require public contracts for functions currently or previously performed by unionized public employees to include specified information beginning July 1, 2026.
