California lawmakers sent Gov. Gavin Newsom a bill that would establish a presumption that skin cancer is compensable for certain first responders.
S.B. 391, which unanimously passed both the Senate and Assembly this week, would add state game wardens and park rangers to the list of workers eligible for the presumption that skin cancer arose out of employment.
Gov. Newsom has until Oct. 14 to sign the bill, veto it or allow it to become law without his signature.
