SB 560 (Smallwood- Cuevas) – Decriminalize Benefit Overpayments
This bill would authorize counties to process public benefits overpayments like CalFresh through their administrative penalty system. By updating the law so overpayment cases can be handled administratively, county workers will be empowered to ensure reporting paperwork is corrected and overpayments are repaid, without traumatizing and destabilizing vulnerable families.
