You're Invited: California Commission on Disability Access Business Community Stakeholder Summit | Tuesday, February 24 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM via Zoom

CCDA, on which BOMA California's Sarahann Shapiro serves, invites members of the business community to participate in a Business Community Stakeholder Summit as part of our ongoing strategic planning process. CCDA is currently developing a five-year Strategic Plan that will be completed in 2026 and will guide the Commission’s work through 2030.

This summit is intentionally designed as a facilitated listening and discussion session to gather perspectives from business stakeholders that may help inform this process. The summit will provide an opportunity for business stakeholders to engage in dialogue with one another and share insights related to accessibility, compliance, and partnership with CCDA. Input shared during the discussion will be considered alongside other stakeholder feedback as CCDA continues to refine its strategic direction.

Key Bills in Motion

AB 1439 (R. Garcia) – Pension Investments and Labor Standards (Oppose)

AB 1439 restricts pension fund investments in development projects unless they meet specific labor standards, creating legal conflicts with existing agreements and reducing overall housing investment. The bill increases project costs and further strains statewide affordability.

STATUS: The bill passed the Assembly Floor on a 44-36 vote and will move to the Senate.

SB 667 (Archuleta) – Rail Operations and Safety Restrictions - (Oppose)

SB 667 would impose new operational restrictions and liability exposure on freight rail operations, creating significant uncertainty for rail-dependent supply chains across California. By expanding regulatory requirements beyond existing federal rail safety standards, the bill risks disrupting goods movement, increasing costs for shippers and consumers, and undermining statewide economic and infrastructure reliability.

STATUS: The bill passed the Senate Floor on a 26-11 vote and will move to the Assembly.
