“California Forward has long advocated for giving lawmakers and the public at least 72 hours to review a bill before a final vote. We also know from our extensive consultation with the public that more transparency is essential to improving the public’s confidence in the Legislature.
The ’72-hour rule’ has had bipartisan support in the Legislature and we hope voters get a chance to vote on a measure that would improve their ability to see how the public’s business is conducted in the capitol.”
