The act requires the department, if it determines that a violation of any state or federal law or regulation relating to the operation or maintenance of the facility warrants the issuance of a citation, to take specified actions regarding federal enforcement remedies and citations. The act prohibits the issuance of both a citation pursuant to state laws and the recommendation that a federal civil monetary penalty be imposed.	us/states/ca	California Legislature	20112012	AB 641	California AB 641 (20112012)	bill	Long-term care.	enacted	Feuer	11	42	10	2011-02-16	2011-10-09	openstates	ocd-bill/b21ea68e-0ddc-44ae-9c90-5361c4d4fba0	http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201120120AB641	76bf95b2cdafa2f07c238f24a3e47a7002896e586631370c8a8d263a0342ad68	2026-07-01	https://data.openstates.org/daily/2026-07-01/public.pgdump	2026-07-06	reported	legislation bill us-ca
