CHAPTER 2125, STATUTES OF 1957, established Government Code § 13923. This section allows payroll deduction for an annual charitable fund drive. The Victim Compensation and Government Claims Board (formerly known as the Board of Control) were given responsibility to develop the necessary rules and regulations.

CHAPTER 870, STATUTES OF 1979, amended Government Code § 13923 as follows:

• Required every employee to receive an approved list of charitable organizations, a payroll deduction form, and a designation form.
• Established a process and standards for use by the Board in approving organizations, which apply to manage the State Employees Campaign in a given area (known as the Principal Combined Fund Drive Agency).
• Required the Board to establish procedures by which any tax-exempt agency may receive designations.

CHAPTER 1270, STATUTES OF 1982, made technical, non-substantive changes to Government Code § 13923 in order to reflect reorganization of Title 1, Division 4, Article 6, regarding Salary & Wage Deductions.
