This bill strikes certain provisions from the law that required the governor to appoint two members recommended by the State Bar to judicial nominating commissions. It also strikes a provision prohibiting more than 4 members of the same party from serving on such a commission. CPAC believes that appointees should be selected based on their fitness for the role and not on their favored status with the State Bar, believes that this measure helps direct the process toward this end, and supported this bill. The House passed this bill on March 1, 2023 by a vote of 52-15 and the bill later became law.
