AI Summary

This bill would create the Joint Legislative Committee on Children and Youth, with 18 members appointed by the Senate Committee on Rules and the Speaker of the Assembly. The committee would be tasked with developing "California's Promise to its Children and Youth," a framework for the care and welfare of children and youth in various contexts, such as health care, nutrition, homeless assistance, education, and foster care. The bill would require the committee to consider the existing Bill of Rights for the Children and Youth of California, if enacted, in developing the framework. The committee would also be required to develop a plan to implement the framework by January 1, 2024, and to identify and propose comprehensive tax reform solutions to ensure adequate funding for the implementation.
