Capitol Weekly – Is ‘carrier of last resort’ on its way out?

In this Capitol Weekly article, Tracy Rhine, Senior Policy Advocate for the Rural County Representatives of California, acknowledged the amendments made to AB 470, writing that “we recognize the efforts made to acknowledge our concerns, and we look forward to additional engagement as the bill progresses.” Her statement reflected how stakeholder negotiations shifted RCRC from opposition to neutrality, a pivotal step that allowed the bill to advance further than previous attempts to phase out California’s carrier of last resort policy.
