Summary

The Senate Budget and Fiscal Review Committee Subcommittee No. 4 approved three procedural items during the May 20 hearing: (1) implementation oversight item, (2) a follow-up budget item, and (3) trailer bill language to extend ERF award/expenditure timelines.

At the conclusion of the May 20 California State Senate Subcommittee No. 4 hearing on homelessness, the panel took three roll call votes for agenda items described during the session.

Recorded votes and outcomes

- Item 3: Motion to approve item 3 as budgeted. Vote: Senator Cabaldon — Aye; Senator Nilo — Aye; Senator Smallwood‑Cuevas — Aye. Outcome: approved.

- Item 7: Motion to approve item 7 as proposed. Vote: Senator Cabaldon — Aye; Senator Nilo — Aye; Senator Smallwood‑Cuevas — Aye. Outcome: approved.

- Item 10 (trailer bill for ERF deadlines): Motion to approve the proposed trailer‑bill language (item 10) that would change the ERF obligation/expenditure clock; roll call: Senator Cabaldon — Aye; Senator Nilo — Aye; Senator Smallwood‑Cuevas — Aye. Outcome: approved.

Notes: The votes were unanimous among the subcommittee members present. Several witnesses and analysts had urged the subcommittee to delay major funding decisions until April annual ERF reports and improved HDIS reporting were available; nevertheless the panel approved the trailer‑bill language to start ERF deadlines from award date rather than appropriation date and approved the other administrative items on the agenda.
