The San Jose Mercury News provided this laundry list of the changes that will come if Davis signs the bills into law:
- If you're a state employee, your health plan will cover the cost of an AIDS vaccine if it becomes available.
- State court workers will get the state holiday honoring Cesar Chavez.
- If you work as a day laborer in construction, the contractor will be your official employer, not the temporary agency that sent you there. If you get hurt, the contractor pays your workers compensation.
- Sheepherders who tend California's flocks will be paid more and get the same working conditions that most workers enjoy: 10 minutes off for every four hours of work and tools provided by the employer.
- Those out of work will find monthly unemployment benefits raised from $230 to $450 over the next three years.
- The state will forgive the student loans of new doctors who practice in areas with doctor shortages.
- Law school graduates who go into public interest law will get as much as $11,000 to pay off their student loans.
