Summary
The California Constitution establishes the Public Utilities Commission, with jurisdiction over all public utilities. Under the California Constitution, the commission consists of 5 members appointed by the Governor and approved by the Senate, a majority of the membership concurring, for staggered 6-year terms. This measure would provide that the commission instead consists of 4 members elected from distinct Public Utilities Commission districts for staggered 4-year terms. The measure would subject members of the commission to certain provisions of the California Constitution that are applicable to other state officers, including those provisions related to recall, compensation, impeachment, conflicts of interest, elections, and redistricting.
