SB 1427, as introduced, Pavley. Workforce development: developmentally disabled individuals.
The federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act provides for workforce investment activities, including activities in which states may participate. Existing law also provides for the Medi-Cal program, which is administered by the State Department of Health Care Services, under which qualified low-income individuals receive health care services. The Medi-Cal program is, in part, governed and funded by federal Medicaid Program provisions. Existing federal law provides for various home- and community-based services waivers.
This bill would express the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation that would ensure that individuals with developmental disabilities who are earning income do not lose their vocational opportunities and earning power due to changes related to the home- and community-based services settings rule, the implementation of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act, or the debate over the use of productivity-based pay.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no. State-mandated local program: no.
