Maddy summaryThis House Resolution (HR 44) recognizes and commends homeless service providers in California during November 2025, designating it as "Homelessness Awareness Month." It acknowledges the critical work of these providers - public and nonprofit staff who deliver services like outreach, housing navigation, and support to people experiencing homelessness. The resolution highlights challenges they face, including low wages and staffing difficulties, but does not create new policies or allocate funding. As a symbolic gesture, it aims to raise awareness of their role in addressing homelessness.

Maddy summaryThis is a commemorative resolution (not a law), passed by the California Assembly on August 18, 2025. It recognizes the 105th anniversary of the 19th Amendment's ratification (August 18, 1920), which guaranteed women the right to vote. The resolution acknowledges California's earlier 1911 suffrage victory and notes that women of color and women with disabilities faced continued barriers to voting until the Voting Rights Act (1965) and ADA (1990), respectively. The Assembly urges all Californians to celebrate this milestone.

Existing law, the Knox-Keene Health Care Service Plan Act of 1975, provides for the licensure and regulation of health care service plans by the Department of Managed Health Care, and makes a willful violation of the act a crime. Existing law provides for the regulation of health insurers by the Department of Insurance. Existing law requires a health care service plan contract or health insurance policy to provide coverage for behavioral health treatment for pervasive developmental disorder or autism. This bill would prohibit a health care service plan contract or health insurance policy issued, amended, or renewed on or after January 1, 2026, from requiring an enrollee or insured previously diagnosed with pervasive developmental disorder or autism to receive a rediagnosis to maintain coverage for behavioral health treatment for their condition. The bill would require a treatment plan to be made available to the plan or insurer upon request. Because a willful violation of this provision by a health care service plan would be a crime, the 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 no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.

Existing property tax law permits, at the election of the assessee, the installment payment of delinquent taxes on tax-defaulted property under an installment payment plan. Existing law also permits a one-year deferral of payment under an existing installment plan if the county was declared by the Governor to be in a state of emergency or disaster due to a major misfortune or calamity and specified conditions are met, including that the installment plan was already in existence at the time deferral is requested by the assessee or the agent of the assessee. This bill would modify the above-described condition to be that the installment plan was already in existence, or that the taxpayer had submitted an application for the installment plan, at the time deferral is requested by the assessee or the agent of the assessee. The bill would also remove an obsolete definition from these provisions.

Maddy summaryACR 93 designates October 23, 2025, as "Aromatic L-Amino Acid Decarboxylase Deficiency Awareness Day" in California. The bill does not create new laws or alter regulations; it is a ceremonial resolution to raise public awareness about Aromatic L-Amino Acid Decarboxylase Deficiency (AADC deficiency), a rare genetic disorder affecting dopamine and serotonin production. It directly affects the AADC deficiency patient community and their families by promoting recognition of the condition.

Maddy summaryACR 99 designates June 29, 2025, as Scleroderma Awareness Day in California.
