Assemblymember Kristin Olsen (R- Modesto) recently submitted a letter to the Assembly Budget Committee requesting a vote on Assembly Constitutional Amendment 1, a bill that would improve legislative transparency by requiring all bills, including the state budget, to be in print for at least three days before being taken up for a vote. “Californians overwhelmingly support an open and transparent government, so it is disappointing that the Budget Committee has been unwilling to take a stand on ACA 1,” Olsen said. “I remain committed to this effort to help restore the public’s confidence in our system of government.”
