(b) If the amount of funding provided by the federal government pursuant to Part C of the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act for the 1993–94 fiscal year, or any fiscal year thereafter, is not sufficient to fund the full increased costs of participation in this federal program by the local educational agencies, as required pursuant to this title, for infants and toddlers from birth to two years of age, inclusive, identified pursuant to Section 95014, and that lack of federal funding would require an increased contribution from the General Fund or a contribution from a local educational agency in order to fund those required and supplemental costs, the state shall terminate its participation in the program. Termination of the program shall occur on July 1 if local educational agencies have been notified of the termination prior to March 10 of that calendar year.

2023 California Code › Government Code - GOV › TITLE 15 - OFFICE OF CHILD DEVELOPMENT AND EDUCATION › CHAPTER 3 - Academic Volunteers and Mentors › ARTICLE 1 - General Provisions › Section 96101.

96101. The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(a) Every California child is encouraged to have a caring adult who, along with parents and teachers, is able to offer support, friendship, encouragement, and motivation to help the child excel academically and lead a productive life.
(b) As a society, we look to a child’s family to provide a supportive home environment and realize that the primary responsibility for childrearing must remain with the family. However, we are keenly aware of increases in child abuse and neglect, the escalation of drug and alcohol abuse, and that many children who could excel in school are not receiving all the help and support they need to succeed.
(c) Untapped human resources exist in local communities throughout the state that can provide many children with an additional caring person, in support of the family and school system, to volunteer as a positive academic role model or mentor. These individuals will help those children progress in school and help direct and reinforce the many opportunities that will further enhance each child’s life.
(d) The private sector throughout California should be commended for its generous financial support of public schools. Now there is another significant contribution they can and must make to California’s children and youth— the investment of human capital in our children’s future as academic volunteers and mentors.
(e) Programs such as the 100 Black Men, which provides encouragement and support to children through the use of mentors, have resulted in significant increases in graduation rates at the secondary level and in much improved enrollment rates in postsecondary education for some of our most vulnerable youth.
(f) Local, regional, and statewide resource referral systems must be established to more efficiently link children and potential academic volunteers and mentors with existing programs and organizations.
(g) Volunteer and mentor service must be encouraged and appropriately recognized.
(Added by Stats. 1992, Ch. 901, Sec. 1. Effective January 1, 1993.)
2023 California Code › Government Code - GOV › TITLE 15 - OFFICE OF CHILD DEVELOPMENT AND EDUCATION › CHAPTER 3 - Academic Volunteers and Mentors › ARTICLE 2 - Administration › Section 96102.

96102. In order to develop a statewide strategy to provide academic support and guidance to each child who requires it, there is hereby created the Academic Volunteer and Mentor Service Program, to be administered by the office of the Governor. The Governor shall do all of the following:
(a) Develop a statewide plan with the goal of matching every child who needs one with an academic mentor. For purposes of this chapter, “academic mentor” or “academic volunteer and mentor” means a volunteer who, as a participant in a local project funded under this chapter, supports the needs of the individual child with whom the volunteer is matched, including, but not limited to, strengthening the child’s academic preparation and achievement.
(b) Develop state standards for the operation of local projects for the provision of academic volunteer and mentor services.
(c) Develop a system for funding school districts and county superintendents of schools. These procedures shall be based on local need, including, but not limited to, all of the following indicators:
(1) Size of schoolage population.
(2) School dropout rates.
(3) Pupil achievement.
(d) Develop and implement a statewide public awareness and recruitment campaign for academic mentors.
(e) Develop and implement a strategy to encourage and promote state employees to become academic mentors within their community.
(f) Compile a statewide resource directory of successful academic mentor programs and organizations.

(b) Grant funding awarded under this chapter shall be expended exclusively for the recruitment, screening, training, and placement of academic mentors in accordance with the purposes of this chapter, and for evaluation of the program established in this chapter. Each entity receiving grant funding under this chapter shall consult, and cooperate with, any teacher in whose classroom it is proposed that an academic mentor be placed.
(c) No funds appropriated for the purposes of this chapter shall be allocated to any private school.
(d) No displacement of any certificated or classified school employee shall occur as a result of the use of any academic mentor pursuant to this chapter.

(6) A statement of how the applicant intends to recruit, screen, train, and place academic mentors.
(7) A statement of how the entity will ensure that (A) academic volunteers and mentors will be required to undergo the same criminal and health checks that school employees are subject to prior to employment, and (B) no displacement of existing school employees will occur as a result of the use of academic volunteers and mentors.
(8) A statement of the efforts the applicant will make to maximize the use of existing state, federal, and local funds from both public and private sources for the purposes of the project.
(9) A plan for integration of the applicant’s efforts with other community-based children’s services.
(c) Each recipient of grant funding under this chapter shall comply with the standards developed by the office of the Governor pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 96102.

98002. (a) The Governor is authorized to execute on behalf of this state a Gaming Compact containing the terms set forth in Section 98004, and shall do so as a ministerial act, without preconditions, within 30 days after receiving a request from a tribe, accompanied by or in the form of a duly enacted resolution of the tribe’s governing body, to enter into such a compact.
(b) If any federally recognized tribe having jurisdiction over Indian lands in California requests that the Governor enter into negotiations for a Tribal-State compact under federal law, including but not limited to the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (25 U.S.C. Sec. 2701 et seq.) (hereafter “IGRA”), on terms different than those prescribed in the Gaming Compact in Section 98004, the Governor shall enter into those negotiations pursuant to that federal law and without preconditions, and is authorized to reach agreement and execute that compact on behalf of the state, which authority shall not require action by the Legislature so long as the compact does not expand the scope of class III gaming permitted under a Gaming Compact under this chapter, create or confer additional powers on any agency of this state that are inconsistent with the terms of a Gaming Compact, or infringe upon the power of the Legislature to appropriate and authorize the expenditure of funds from the State Treasury. Any action by the Legislature that expands the scope of class III gaming permitted in any Tribal-State compact between the state and a tribe beyond that authorized and permitted in the Gaming Compact set forth in Section 98004 may not be deemed to be in conflict with, or prohibited by, this chapter.
(c) The Governor is authorized and directed to execute, as a ministerial act on behalf of the state, any additional documents that may be necessary to implement this chapter or any Tribal-State compact entered into pursuant to this chapter.

Without limiting the foregoing, the State of California also submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of the United States in any action brought against the state by any federally recognized California Indian tribe asserting any cause of action arising from the state’s refusal to enter into negotiations with that tribe for the purpose of entering into a different Tribal-State compact pursuant to IGRA or to conduct those negotiations in good faith, the state’s refusal to enter into negotiations concerning the amendment of a Tribal-State compact to which the state is a party, or to negotiate in good faith concerning that amendment, or the state’s violation of the terms of any Tribal-State compact to which the state is or may become a party.

Without limiting the foregoing, and notwithstanding any other provision of law, the following forms of gaming specifically are permitted and authorized to be conducted on Indian lands by a tribe that has entered into a Tribal-State compact with the state pursuant to this chapter, IGRA, or any other law:
(a) Any card games that were operated on any Indian reservation in California on or before January 1, 1998, provided that, with respect to card games that are not within class II of IGRA (which class II games are not affected by this chapter), those card games shall pay prizes solely in accordance with a players’ pool prize system in which one or more segregated pools of funds that have been collected from player wagers are irrevocably dedicated to the prospective award of prizes in those card games or other lottery games, promotions, or contests and in which the house neither has acquired nor can acquire any interest. The tribe may set and collect a fee from players on a per play, per amount wagered, or time-period basis, and may seed the pools in the form of loans or promotional expenses, provided that the seeding is not used to pay prizes previously won.
(b) Any gaming or gambling device, provided that the devices do not dispense coins or currency and are not activated by handles, and prizes therefrom are awarded solely from one or more segregated pools of funds (1) that have been collected from player wagers, (2) that are irrevocably dedicated to the prospective award of prizes in such games or in other lottery games, contests, tournaments, or prize pool promotions, and (3) in which the house neither has acquired nor can acquire any interest. The tribe may set and collect a fee from players on a per play, per amount wagered, or time-period basis, and may seed the pools in the form of loans or promotional expenses, provided that the seeding is not used to pay prizes previously won. The introduction, possession, manufacture, repair, or transportation of gaming devices that are authorized by the terms of any Tribal-State gaming compact between the State of California and any federally recognized Indian tribe exercising jurisdiction over Indian lands in California is lawful in this state.
(c) The operation of any lottery game, including, but not limited to, drawings, raffles, match games, and instant lottery ticket games.

2023 California Code › Government Code - GOV › TITLE 17 - CALIFORNIA FISCAL RECOVERY FINANCING ACT › CHAPTER 1 - General Provisions › Section 99002.

99002. The Legislature finds and declares as follows:
(a) The bonds authorized to be issued by the authority under this title, and any ancillary obligations entered into with respect to the bonds, are not a debt or liability of the state subject to Section 1 of Article XVI of the California Constitution. The appropriation, if any, by the Legislature of special sales tax revenues to the California Fiscal Recovery Financing Authority created in Section 99004 is not payment on a debt or liability of the state subject to Section 1 of Article XVI of the California Constitution.
(b) Temporary special sales tax revenues deposited in the Fiscal Recovery Fund created in Section 99008 do not constitute General Fund revenues for the purposes of Section 8 of Article XVI of the California Constitution or any other provision of law.
(c) It is the intent of the Legislature that the moneys deposited in the Fiscal Recovery Fund shall not be available for any purpose other than payment of the principal, interest, premium, if any, and replenishment of reserves of the bonds, payment of ancillary obligations, or payment of administrative expenses of the California Fiscal Recovery Financing Authority.
(d) It is the intent of the Legislature that the proceeds of the bonds issued pursuant to this title shall be used solely to eliminate the accumulated budget deficit identified as of June 30, 2003, or to refund outstanding bonds issued for that purpose. It is further the intent of the Legislature that any bonds issued pursuant to this title, and any ancillary obligations entered into in relation to those bonds, be repaid in the shortest practicable time consistent with favorable bond ratings and marketing considerations. Any legislation that results in an extension of the period during which the additional special sales taxes provided for in Sections 6051.5 and 6201.5 of the Revenue and Taxation Code are imposed beyond the time necessary to satisfy any obligations incurred to eliminate the accumulated budget deficit identified as of June 30, 2003 shall be deemed to be an increase in taxes requiring a two-thirds vote of each house of the Legislature.
(e) It is the intent of the Legislature that the only appropriation made by this title is set forth in subdivision (d) of Section 99008.
