Under existing law, cotton producers are authorized, after a referendum, to levy an assessment on all cotton producers to fund promotional programs and activities related to the production, improvement, marketing, use, and sale of cotton. In the administration of the program and after collection, the program is required to provide for refunds to cotton growers who do not desire to participate.
This bill would propose a constitutional amendment to delete the requirement for refunds to cotton producers.
