On May 5, California AB 1396 passed the Assembly Elections Committee unanimously. It deletes state laws that tell the Democratic Party how to be organized. It also provides that the party will keep a copy of its rules on the internet.

Seems a tad bit silly to be that detailed about how one party should run its internal affairs. Was this due to the civil rights movement?
No, California started regulating the structure of qualified political parties in the 1910’s. It was an outgrowth of the progressive movement.
So the Democrat Party wants to be de-regulated? That is quite a change from their attitude toward other enterprises.
