Senate Defeats Amendments To Weaken FEPC Bill In California
In Sacramento the Senate rejected amendments by Sen. Hugh Burns aimed at limiting the five member FEPC commission and curbing its powers. The Assembly already approved Gov. Brown’s fair employment practices bill, which would prohibit discrimination and establish a formal commission with hearings investigations and orders to stop discriminatory practices. Senate leaders argued Burns’ changes would cripple enforcement while Burns warned against a rubber stamp, though he voted for the final measure in its enacted form.
