Two major consumer backed bills clearing the first committee test in Sacramento move to the Senate floor. The Dunlap price advertising bill would lift bans in health professions and allow pricing for eyeglasses exams and dental services while Gregorio's licensing board reform would raise public membership on state licensing boards. Industry groups oppose, while Gov Brown’s administration backs both measures. The opposite fate for a separate liquor licensing reform plan is noted as the Senate Governmental Organization Committee recommended rejection 8-0, citing industry and rehab group opposition.
