PECG’s sponsored bill (AB 1729) to provide flexible telework rights for PECG members, and all eligible state employees, was referred to the Suspense File by the Senate Appropriations Committee. The Committee is expected to take up the Suspense File, including AB 1729, on August 13.
At this time, PECG is encouraging members to reach out to their Senator and request that they vote for the bill. Doing so will help build support for AB 1729 among the Senate Appropriations Committee members and all Senators.
