SR 93 California Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relative to Jim Plunkett.

This Senate Resolution urges the Pro Football Hall of Fame to induct legendary quarterback Jim Plunkett into its hall for the Class of 2027. The bill highlights Plunkett's historic achievements, including winning two Super Bowls as the only Latino player to do so and being the first Latino selected first overall in the NFL Draft. It notes that despite his accolades and previous nominations, he has not yet been inducted and requires 80 percent of the votes from the selection committee to be honored. The resolution formally requests the Hall of Fame to consider his induction as a matter of pride for California residents.

MODERATE

This is the transition from the Amended Senate version to the Enrolled version of SR 93, a resolution urging the Pro Football Hall of Fame Selection Committee to induct Jim Plunkett for the Class of 2027. The changes are primarily formatting and editorial: standard enrollment elements were added (adoption date, attestation line), the coauthor list was removed from the header, and two minor wording corrections were made in the WHEREAS clauses.

TECHNICAL

The phrase 'first person of color Hispanic to quarterback a team to a Super Bowl victory' was simplified to 'first Hispanic to quarterback a team to a Super Bowl victory.'

A duplicated/typo phrase 'remains the one of only two starting quarterback quarterbacks with two Super Bowl rings' was corrected to 'remains one of only two starting quarterbacks with two Super Bowl rings.'

Standard enrollment elements added: adoption date (April 20, 2026), attestation line for the Secretary of the Senate, and updated header identifying the 2025-26 regular session.

The list of coauthors (18 additional senators) was removed from the enrolled version header, leaving only 'Introduced by Senator Cortese.'
