Again thank you for your patience in waiting for an answer to your concerns. You had asked what being a former police officer had to do with this issue. Well, Senator Wanggaard takes anything to do with law enforcement seriously, and it is personal because of his background. As passionate as you were against this bill, the Senator is just as passionate when comes to a law enforcement issue. Senator Wanggaard signed onto AB 237 because he believed there was a flaw in the way already written laws were unenforceable.
AB 237 was debated in the Assembly and passed out of committee with both the Democrats and Republicans on that committee voting for it. It passed out of committee on a 9-0 vote. So, this bill had bipartisan support, and as you probably know, in this political environment that is becoming more and more difficult.
By Senator Wanggaard signing onto this bill it allowed us to debate the issue with other Legislators and with the Senator's constituents. After listening to other Legislators, and the Senator's constituents, Senator Wanggaard has elected not to bring AB 237 forward in the Senate, essentially stopping it.
If you have any other concerns on this, or any other issue, feel free to contact our office.
