Bills from Sen. Anthony Portantino and Sen. Dave Cortese that were authored in response to the 'Rust' tragedy are being 'held in committee' in the California Senate's Appropriations Committee, and one senator says failure of industry stakeholders to bridge their differences is to blame.
Portantino added, “Rather than draft a unilateral solution, I decided it’s best to reiterate the challenge by holding both non-consensus bills in committee. Should there be an agreement forthcoming, I’d be willing and eager to entertain it before the end of the legislative session.”
In his own statement about the development, Cortese said, “It’s a powerful and ruthless industry. First the industry killed Halyna. Then they killed the bill that would’ve made people like her safe.” He added, “Despite setbacks, I’m committed to real reforms that will protect our workers.” While both bills call for greater regulation of firearms and blanks on set as well as safety training, SB 829 seeks to require a fire code official to be present during the use of firearms and blanks and to require the Office of the State Fire Marshal to develop safety courses for crewmembers, while SB 831 looks to tackle a broader range of safety concerns by necessitating a “set safety supervisor.
