AB 282, as introduced, Eggman. Home furnishings.
Existing law, the Home Furnishings and Thermal Insulation Act, provides for the licensure and regulation of, among others, upholstered-furniture manufacturers by the Bureau of Electronic and Appliance Repair, Home Furnishings, and Thermal Insulation. Existing law defines “upholstered furniture” for purpose of the act.
This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to that definition.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no. State-mandated local program: no.
