MNO Update: Bill AB 1319
As direct result of the Jewish Home’s efforts, Assembly
Member Matt Dababneh introduced Bill AB 1319 on February 27th, 2015. The bill
is proposed as an act to amend the existing legislation that determines the amount
of money low-income individuals will receive each month. If passed, Bill AB
1319 will increase the amount of money allotted to the medically needy seniors
of California from $20 to $50 each month.
On Friday, March 13th, Assembly Member Cheryl R.
Brown, Chair of the Aging and Long-Term Care Committee met with Eisenberg
Village representatives Douglas Tucker, Ashley Teal, and Alison Shaw to discuss
Dababneh’s Bill. Assembly Member Brown informed the Jewish Home representatives
that she fully intends to continue her commitment to the seniors of California
and support AB 1319.
