The Assembly Select Committee on Hate Crimes was created in February 2017 in response to the rise of hate crimes throughout the state of California.
Purpose:
- The Assembly Select Committee on Hate Crimes serves as a tool to foster community engagement, open dialogue, and collaboration between elected officials, law enforcement, and communities throughout California.
- The Assembly Select Committee on Hate Crimes’ work plan consists of organizing hearings throughout the State, including convening roundtable discussions, fact-finding visits and meetings. The goal of the committee is to provide a safe forum for discussions and find solutions to keep all communities safe from hate and violence.
