Exciting news! Our Policy Advocate, Annie Thomas, presented #AB276 to the Assembly Human Services Committee today. With a 5-0 vote, the bill moved out of committee and will be heard next at the Assembly Public Safety Committee.
AB 276 ensures that licensed children’s residential programs hire staff under supervision while awaiting out-of-state background checks—aligning CA with federal law & tackling the severe workforce shortage that threatens their ability to care for California’s most vulnerable youth.
Let’s support this crucial step toward giving our providers the workforce they need to deliver the stable, high-quality services these youth rely on.

Our sponsored bill, #AB276, authored by @asmstevebennett, has officially been introduced!
This bill addresses unnecessary delays in out-of-state background checks that disrupts hiring in community care facilities, including children’s residential programs.
The issue? Delays of 9+ months impact program capacity & leave foster youth without the timely care they need.
#AB276 offers a solution: Conditional employment for staff while awaiting the out-of-state clearance, ensuring youth receive care now.
A big THANK YOU to Assemblymember Bennett for championing this critical effort! Together, we can improve access to care for CA’s foster youth.

#AB276 - would authorize a provider of health care who is conducting a forensic medical examination of an apparent victim of sexual assault or strangulation to use telehealth to get instructions/guidance from another trained provider.
I created the Nevada Teacher Recruitment & RETENTION Task Force (#AB276 in 2019) to ensure that the voices of our current, licensed teachers are heard. The solutions come from the impacted!

You’re so welcome! How can plans/discussions on teacher recruitment & RETENTION occur without the actual professional teachers? My #AB276 (2019) does just that, it created the statewide Teacher Recruitment & Retention Task Force-comprised solely of current public school teachers https://t.co/KOj6dWdXHa
.@AndyMatthewsNV said that with Assembly Govt Affairs adjourned, it appears that his public records bill #AB276 is DEAD.
Would have allowed requestors who prevail in public records lawsuit to recoup twice the cost of the suit.

Time to act, transparency advocates! “#AB276 is currently stuck in the Assembly Government Affairs Committee and for procedural reasons we have only 48 hours to save it. It will take a public outcry to make that happen.” https://t.co/FyRlHcVor6
(1/4) My government transparency bill, #AB276, has bipartisan support and deserves a vote before tomorrow's deadline for committee passage. @rkarpel of @nevadapress explains why in the @rgj & tells Nevadans how to make it happen! @NevadaPolicyRI @aclunv

A work session on #AB276 is warranted if legislative leaders want to show that they’re serious about open government. You can show them you support this bill getting a vote! https://t.co/0henXZglrk
This week at #nvleg, Assembly Govt Affairs is hearing a problematic bill that would drastically change the Open Meeting Law (#AB253) but hasn't yet made time for a work session on #AB276. Our legislators should focus on more, not less transparency! @NevadaOpenGov #sunshine
The "secrecy squad" - govt lobbyists paid by you - have been hard at work killing #AB276, just like they tried to kill reform last session. Don't let them win!

The deadline for #AB276 to get a committee vote is this Friday, April 9. We think this bill will cut back on costly public records lawsuits, and deserves to move on. You can share your support for the bill here! https://t.co/0henXZglrk
A bill that would raise the stakes for Nevada agencies that ignore or abuse our public records law is still languishing in committee, and time is running out! #AB276 https://t.co/vdehYsEKfM
My government-transparency bill, #AB276, is garnering support from across the ideological spectrum. But it’s also drawing opposition from a very powerful special-interest group: government itself. Michael Schaus of @NevadaPolicyRI has the details. @ACLUNV

(3/3) Transparency in government should not be a partisan issue. My bill to promote open government, #AB276, got a committee hearing yesterday, and it deserves support from both parties here in NV. Let’s all stand up for the public’s right to know! @NevadaPolicyRI @ACLUNV
(2/3) From the @reviewjournal editorial on #AB276: “The best public records lawsuits are the ones that never have to be filed. A proposal from Assemblyman Andy Matthews would help accomplish that.” @NevadaPolicyRI @ACLUNV
(1/3) Check out this @reviewjournal editorial on #AB276, my bill that would promote open government by strengthening penalties for Public Records Act violations. The RJ calls it “The transparency bill Nevada needs.” They're right! @NevadaPolicyRI @ACLUNV
