🚨 Nick Shirley is BACK in California—and this time the battle over government transparency, taxpayer dollars and AB 2624 is getting even bigger.
California lawmakers have advanced **AB 2624**, legislation officially titled *Privacy for Immigration Support Services Providers*. Critics have dubbed it the **“Stop Nick Shirley Act,”** arguing that portions of the legislation could discourage citizen journalists and independent investigators from scrutinizing organizations that receive taxpayer funding.
Supporters of AB 2624 strongly disagree, saying the legislation is intended to protect immigration-support workers and providers from harassment, threats, doxxing and violence.
But Nick Shirley isn't backing away.
After gaining national attention for investigations into alleged fraud, waste and abuse, Shirley has returned to California and is turning his attention toward taxpayer-funded programs, nonprofits, hospice operations, daycare subsidies, the state's troubled high-speed rail project and more.
And the timing couldn't be more significant.
The California Senate approved AB 2624 on August 18, sending the amended legislation back to the Assembly for concurrence.
So what exactly does AB 2624 do? Why are critics raising First Amendment concerns? And why has Nick Shirley become the face of the fight against it?
Professor Nez breaks down the controversy, the legislation, Shirley's return to California, and the much bigger question:
**Should government-funded organizations face MORE public scrutiny—or less?**
