AB 35 (Alvarez, D) Safe Drinking Water, Wildfire Prevention, Drought Preparedness, and Clean Air Bond Act of 2024: Administrative Procedure Act: exemption: program guidelines and selection criteria.

Current Text: 06/11/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/11/2026 - Read second time and amended. Re-referred to Com. on APPR.

Calendar: 06/22/26 S-APPROPRIATIONS 10 a.m. - 1021 O Street, Room 2200 CERVANTES, SABRINA, Chair Location: 06/09/2026 - Senate Appropriations
Summary: This bill would exempt regulations needed to implement programs funded by the 2024 $10 billion Safe Drinking Water, Wildfire Prevention, Drought Preparedness, and Clean Air Bond Act from the Administrative Procedure Act and would make the measure effective immediately as an urgency statute.

It would also require state entities administering competitive grant programs under the exemption to prepare draft solicitation and evaluation guidelines, share them with legislative committees, hold a noticed public meeting, and submit them to the Secretary of the Natural Resources Agency for posting online, while allowing certain previously developed guidelines and selection criteria to be used.

AB 736 (Wicks, D) The Affordable Housing Bond Act of 2026.

Current Text: 04/10/2025 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 05/14/2026 - From committee: Do pass. (Ayes 5. Noes 0.) (May 14). Read second time. Ordered to third reading.

Calendar: 06/18/26 #74 S-ASSEMBLY BILLS - THIRD READING FILE Location: 05/14/2026 - Senate THIRD READING
Summary: Under existing law, various assistance programs support emergency housing, multifamily housing, farmworker housing, home ownership for very low-income and low-income households, and down payment assistance for first-time home buyers. The law also permits issuing bonds to fund these programs and related projects, like infill development and housing-related parks. The bill, the Affordable Housing Bond Act of 2026, seeks to authorize $10 billion in bonds to support affordable rental and home ownership programs, such as the Multifamily Housing Program, the CalHome Program, and the Joe Serna Jr. Farmworker Housing Grant Program.

To take effect, this bill needs to be approved by voters in the June 2, 2026, statewide primary election, and it has been declared an urgency statute to ensure immediate implementation if passed.

AB 1383 (McKinnor, D) Public employees’ retirement benefits.

Current Text: 05/13/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 05/13/2026 - From committee chair, with author's amendments: Amend, and re-refer to committee. Read second time, amended, and re-referred to Com. on L., P.E. & R.

Location: 05/06/2026 - Senate Labor, Public Employment and Retirement Summary: The bill would change pension rules for new members of the Public Employees’ Retirement System (PERS) and the State Teachers’ Retirement System (STRS) starting January 1, 2027, by limiting pensionable compensation, adjusting benefit formulas, and allowing certain negotiated safety-member formulas.

It would apply new caps tied to federal benefit-base percentages, require STRS new members to follow specified limits, and create new safety retirement formulas at age 55 for employees first hired on or after that date. It also would let public employers and unions negotiate prospective increases or, in some cases, higher or lower safety plans through collective bargaining, and it would increase appropriations from pension funds.

AB 1546 (Schultz, D) Vehicles: driving under the influence.

Current Text: 01/05/2026 - Introduced HTML PDF
Status: 06/03/2026 - Referred to Com. on PUB. S.

Calendar: 06/23/26 S-PUBLIC SAFETY 8:30 a.m. - State Capitol, Room 112 ARREGUÍN, JESSE, Chair Location: 06/03/2026 - Senate Public Safety
Summary: Existing law in California penalizes individuals convicted of DUI offenses with imprisonment ranging from 120 days to one year and fines, especially if the offense occurs within 10 years of previous DUI offenses.

This bill introduces a "wobbler" penalty, allowing such convictions to be categorized as either a misdemeanor or a felony, leading to potential imprisonment for up to three years and fines. The bill also increases penalties for repeat offenses, mandating extended periods of license revocation and installation of ignition interlock devices.

The new penalties apply to those with multiple prior convictions within a specified timeframe. No reimbursement from the state is required for implementing this bill, as stated in the California Constitution.

AB 1567 (Ta, R) General plan: annual report: congregate and residential care for the elderly.

Current Text: 03/16/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/17/2026 - From committee: Amend, and do pass as amended and re-refer to Com. on APPR. with recommendation: To Consent Calendar. (Ayes 10. Noes 0.) (June 16).

Calendar: 06/18/26 #1 S-ASSEMBLY BILLS - SECOND READING FILE Location: 06/17/2026 - Senate Appropriations
Summary: The Planning and Zoning law mandates that every planning agency must develop, and each county and city legislative body must adopt, a comprehensive long-term general plan that includes various specified elements, such as a housing element. This housing element must be updated according to a defined schedule.

Once any part of the general plan is adopted, the law requires the planning agency to submit an annual report by April 1 to certain entities, detailing specific information. The Department of Housing and Community Development, in collaboration with councils of governments, determines the current and future housing needs of each region.

Each council, or the department for areas without councils, must create a final regional housing need plan that allocates the housing need share to each city and county, aligning with specified objectives. This bill allows planning agencies, starting from the 7th revision of the housing element, to report the number of units approved for elderly congregate care or residential care facilities, counting up to 15% towards a jurisdiction's regional housing need allocation for any income category.

AB 1602 (Rubio, Blanca, D) Foster youth: disaster aid assistance.

Current Text: 01/16/2026 - Introduced HTML PDF
Status: 06/16/2026 - From committee: Do pass and re-refer to Com. on APPR. with recommendation: To Consent Calendar. (Ayes 5. Noes 0.) (June 15). Re-referred to Com. on APPR.

Location: 06/16/2026 - Senate Appropriations
Summary: Existing law oversees foster youth placement and child welfare services, aiming to protect child welfare, prevent unnecessary family separations, and reunite families when possible. It mandates that the State Department of Social Services coordinates emergency response services and requires counties to have disaster response plans, which the department reviews and updates. This bill introduces the Child Welfare Disaster Response Program, funded by a dedicated account, to assist foster children and caregivers during disasters.

Upon legislative appropriation, funds would address needs such as housing, clothing, and transportation within 180 days of a local or state emergency. County agencies and tribes could apply for these funds, and the department is tasked with setting eligibility criteria and distributing guidance through written instructions.

AB 1621 (Wilson, D) Planning and Zoning Law: postentitlement phase permits: Housing Accountability Act.

Current Text: 06/03/2026 - Amended HTML PDF

Page 2 ends

Status: 06/10/2026 - From committee: Do pass and re-refer to Com. on HOUSING. (Ayes 6. Noes 0.) (June 10).

Re-referred to Com. on HOUSING.

Location: 06/10/2026 - Senate Housing
Summary: The bill would tighten and shorten procedures for postentitlement phase permits, limit plan check reviews to two, accelerate appeal deadlines for housing projects, and expand enforcement under the Housing Accountability Act.

It would also change tolling rules for outside agency reviews, allow applicants to seek a writ of mandate if appeals are denied or untimely, make related violations enforceable statewide, and declare that no state reimbursement is required.

AB 1662 (Wilson, D) Misdemeanor diversion.

Current Text: 06/03/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/16/2026 - From committee: Do pass and re-refer to Com. on TRANS. (Ayes 6. Noes 0.) (June 16). Rereferred to Com. on TRANS.

Location: 06/16/2026 - Senate Transportation
Summary: This bill would require notice to the Department of Motor Vehicles when a defendant receives diversion in a case that otherwise would have required an abstract of conviction to be sent, and it would make the prosecutor responsible for ensuring that notice is provided.

It also states that the measure creates a state-mandated local program because it increases duties for local officials, and any reimbursable costs would be paid under existing state reimbursement procedures if the Commission on State Mandates makes that determination.

AB 1680 (Calderon, D) California FAIR Plan Association.

Current Text: 06/15/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/15/2026 - From committee chair, with author's amendments: Amend, and re-refer to committee. Read second time, amended, and re-referred to Com. on INS.

Location: 06/03/2026 - Senate Insurance
Summary: The bill would require the California FAIR Plan Association to correct violations identified by the Insurance Commissioner and would increase or specify civil penalties for failures and other violations related to the association.

It would authorize the commissioner or a designee to order corrective action after examinations or operational reports, impose penalties of up to $20,000 for not complying in time, set penalties of up to $10,000 per violation or $20,000 for willful acts, and require changes to policy limits and additional fair rental value coverage offerings for renters’ insurance.

AB 1715 (Schiavo, D) Public utilities: reporting.

Current Text: 03/19/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/17/2026 - From committee: Amend, and do pass as amended and re-refer to Com. on APPR. (Ayes

14. Noes 2.) (June 16).

Calendar: 06/18/26 #35 S-ASSEMBLY BILLS - SECOND READING FILE Location: 06/16/2026 - Senate Appropriations
Summary: This bill concerns the regulation of electrical and gas corporations by the Public Utilities Commission.

The bill requires these corporations to report on taxpayer funding over $1,000,000 that they have applied for or

Page 3 ends

received. It mandates that corporations disclose this information when seeking ratepayer funding, and the commission may impose penalties for non-compliance. Additionally, any financial benefits from taxpayer funding must be promptly delivered to ratepayers. The commission is tasked with providing an annual report, starting January 1, 2028, summarizing these financial activities and demonstrating ratepayer savings. The bill's provisions will expire on January 1, 2037. The bill also necessitates the creation of an online database of public utility advice letters by June 1, 2028. Public utilities must link any rate change notifications to the relevant advice letters. Lastly, violations of this bill's provisions would be a crime under the Public Utilities Act, potentially leading to a statemandated local program. The bill specifies that no reimbursement is required by the state for implementing these changes.

AB 1751 (Quirk-Silva, D) Missing Middle Townhome Ownership Act.

Current Text: 06/17/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/17/2026 - From committee chair, with author's amendments: Amend, and re-refer to committee. Read second time, amended, and re-referred to Com. on HOUSING.

Calendar: 06/24/26 S-HOUSING SPECIAL ORDER 1:30 p.m. - State Capitol, Room 112 ARREGUÍN, JESSE, Chair
Location: 06/15/2026 - Senate Housing
Summary: The bill would create a ministerial approval process for qualifying townhome housing development projects and related subdivision maps, while exempting San Francisco and expanding the CEQA exemption for ministerial projects.

It would define townhomes and townhome development projects, allow local agencies to deny projects only for specific adverse public health and safety impacts that cannot be feasibly mitigated, permit local implementation ordinances, and state that the measure imposes a state-mandated local program but requires no reimbursement.

AB 1761 (Rogers, D) Electricity: calculation methodology: data disclosure.

Current Text: 03/19/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/10/2026 - Referred to Com. on E., U & C.

Calendar: 06/30/26 S-ENERGY, UTILITIES AND COMMUNICATIONS 9 a.m. - 1021 O Street, Room 1200 ALLEN, BENJAMIN, Chair
Location: 06/10/2026 - Senate Energy, Utilities and Communications Summary: Existing law gives the Public Utilities Commission authority over public utilities, including the ability to set fair and reasonable rates for electrical corporations. The proposed bill mandates the commission to ensure transparency by making all data used for decisions or calculations on charges imposed on electricity customers accessible to load-serving entities and ratepayer advocates. This includes costs linked to contracts, corporationowned generation, and other resources. The bill requires this data to be publicly disclosed, except for marketsensitive information. Violations of these provisions would be considered a crime under the Public Utilities Act.

Additionally, the bill states that it does not require state reimbursement to local agencies for costs, as per certain existing statutory provisions.

AB 1813 (Ward, D) Electricity: customer renewable energy subscription program.

Current Text: 04/27/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/17/2026 - From committee: Amend, and do pass as amended and re-refer to Com. on APPR. (Ayes

11. Noes 2.) (June 16).

Calendar: 06/18/26 #36 S-ASSEMBLY BILLS - SECOND READING FILE Location: 06/16/2026 - Senate Appropriations
Summary: This bill amends existing law governing the Public Utilities Commission’s (PUC) oversight of customer renewable energy subscription programs and the creation of community renewable energy (CRE) programs. It tightens program design by promoting low‑income participation, allowing certain customer‑generators to provide subscriber bill credits based on avoided costs if the CRE is classified as a “load‑modifying” resource, and by

Page 4 ends

limiting each CRE project to ≤5 MW generation and ≤5 MW storage and the total program capacity to 4 GW (or ending new enrollments after seven years, whichever comes first). The State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission must, by December 1, 2027, evaluate CREs’ load‑modifying potential and define required attributes; the PUC then has 90 days to set a mechanism to classify CREs and another 90 days to adopt or modify the subscription program accordingly. Reporting changes require the PUC to report to the Legislature within 24 months of program adoption/modification and annually thereafter on participating CREs and subscribers; that reporting requirement sunsets January 1, 2034. Because PUC orders are enforceable as crimes, implementing the bill creates a state‑mandated local program, but the bill asserts no state reimbursement is required for that mandate.

AB 1821 (Pacheco, D) California Public Records Act: methods of submission, fees, and agency response time.

Current Text: 06/10/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/10/2026 - Referred to Com. on JUD. From committee chair, with author's amendments: Amend, and re-refer to committee. Read second time, amended, and re-referred to Com. on JUD.

Location: 06/10/2026 - Senate Judiciary
Summary: This bill would change California Public Records Act procedures by requiring agencies to designate official methods for record requests, imposing new fees and court procedures for certain commercial or malicious requests, and extending the response deadline to 10 business days with a possible 14-business-day extension.

It would require agencies to post any changes to request methods online, treat requests submitted through unauthorized methods as not properly filed, and allow fees for search and review time in commercial-use or malicious-intent cases, with exemptions for certain news media, educational, scientific, and government requesters. It also includes legislative findings to support the bill’s compliance with constitutional access requirements.

AB 1914 (Schiavo, D) General plan elements: childcare.

Current Text: 06/08/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/17/2026 - From committee: Do pass and re-refer to Com. on HUMAN S. (Ayes 5. Noes 1.) (June 17).

Re-referred to Com. on HUMAN S.

Location: 06/17/2026 - Senate Human Services
Summary: The bill would require each city, county, or city and county to adopt a childcare plan or include one in its general plan by January 1, 2033, and would declare that this requirement addresses a statewide concern and applies to all cities, including charter cities.

It would amend planning law to make childcare planning part of local general planning and specify that the state need not reimburse local agencies or school districts for the costs of this mandate.

AB 1941 (González, Mark, D) Organized metal theft.

Current Text: 06/04/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/04/2026 - From committee chair, with author's amendments: Amend, and re-refer to committee. Read second time, amended, and re-referred to Com. on PUB. S.

Calendar: 06/23/26 S-PUBLIC SAFETY 8:30 a.m. - State Capitol, Room 112 ARREGUÍN, JESSE, Chair Location: 06/03/2026 - Senate Public Safety
Summary: The bill would create the crime of organized metal theft, covering coordinated theft, possession, receipt, or financing of stolen metal materials, and would punish violations as either misdemeanors or felonies.

It also would expand reporting and information-sharing about commodity metal theft by allowing local law enforcement, public agencies, and private entities to provide theft information to the Department of Justice, which would then make it available to those groups. The bill would declare legislative findings and intent, create a statemandated local program, and specify that no state reimbursement is required.

AB 1976 (Wicks, D) Streets and highways: pedestrian and bicycle facilities.

Current Text: 06/17/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/17/2026 - From committee chair, with author's amendments: Amend, and re-refer to committee. Read second time, amended, and re-referred to Com. on L. GOV.

Calendar: 06/23/26 S-LOCAL GOVERNMENT 9 a.m. - 1021 O Street, Room 2200 DURAZO, MARÍA ELENA, Chair
Location: 06/10/2026 - Senate Local Government
Summary: This bill would restrict local governments from delaying, reconsidering, or terminating certain pedestrian and bicycle safety projects after they are far along, limit petition requirements for traffic-calming measures, and exempt pedestrian mall establishment or expansion from CEQA.

It also specifies that these rules apply statewide, including to charter cities, and provides for state reimbursement if the bill creates mandated local costs. The bill would require continued compliance with specified labor and project requirements for exempted projects.

AB 2005 (Ahrens, D) Housing developments: urban lot split: owner-occupancy.

Current Text: 05/07/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/10/2026 - From committee: Do pass and re-refer to Com. on HOUSING. (Ayes 5. Noes 1.) (June 10).

Re-referred to Com. on HOUSING.

Calendar: 06/30/26 S-HOUSING 2:30 p.m. or upon adjournment of Energy, Utilities and Communications Committee - 1021 O Street, Room 1200 ARREGUÍN, JESSE, Chair Location: 06/10/2026 - Senate Housing
Summary: This bill changes urban lot split rules by giving applicants two owner-occupancy options, adding notice and recording requirements for one option, and limiting local agencies from imposing extra conditions on urban lot split projects.

It would let an applicant either promise to live in one unit for at least three years or agree to sell both parcels with a three-year owner-occupancy requirement for the buyer, while also allowing certain LLC or trust representatives to qualify, creating civil penalties for some violations, and requiring disclosure of the occupancy requirement on sale.

AB 2037 (Patterson, R) Wildfire Mitigation Aging and Disability Grant Pilot Program.

Current Text: 05/18/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/10/2026 - Referred to Com. on HUMAN S.

Calendar: 06/29/26 S-HUMAN SERVICES 3 p.m. or upon adjournment of Session - 1021 O Street, Room 2200 BECKER, JOSH, Chair
Location: 06/10/2026 - Senate Human Services
Summary: The bill would create a Wildfire Mitigation Aging and Disability Grant Pilot Program, administered by the California Department of Aging and local area agencies, to provide competitive grants that help seniors and people with disabilities protect their own properties from wildfires.

It would require eligible applicants to submit specified information, including proof of need, and would allow grant funds to pay for contractors or other qualified service providers to complete wildfire mitigation work. Area agencies on aging would be required to keep certain records and report data to the department after the pilot ends, including the number of applicants and the total amount distributed, and the program would become inoperative on January 1, 2030, at which point the provisions would be repealed.

AB 2041 (Carrillo, D) Emergency medical services.

Page 6 ends

Current Text: 05/18/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/11/2026 - From committee: Do pass and re-refer to Com. on APPR. (Ayes 10. Noes 0.) (June 10). Rereferred to Com. on APPR.

Calendar: 06/22/26 S-APPROPRIATIONS 10 a.m. - 1021 O Street, Room 2200 CERVANTES, SABRINA, Chair Location: 06/11/2026 - Senate Appropriations
Summary: Existing law requires local public agencies to maintain basic emergency telephone systems and sets standards for emergency response services, including a requirement that certain agencies provide prearrival medical instructions to 911 callers by January 1, 2027.

This bill would require any public safety agency that was not already providing those prearrival instructions by January 1, 2026, to report its compliance status to its local emergency medical services agency by January 31, 2027.

AB 2074 (Haney, D) Regional transit hub districts: downtown housing developments.

Current Text: 06/16/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/16/2026 - From committee chair, with author's amendments: Amend, and re-refer to committee. Read second time, amended, and re-referred to Com. on HOUSING.

Calendar: 06/30/26 S-HOUSING 2:30 p.m. or upon adjournment of Energy, Utilities and Communications Committee - 1021 O Street, Room 1200 ARREGUÍN, JESSE, Chair Location: 06/15/2026 - Senate Housing
Summary: This bill would require major transit cities to create regional transit hub districts by July 1, 2027, allow certain downtown housing developments in those districts, and provide streamlined ministerial approval for eligible projects.

It would also establish a continuously appropriated Downtown Revitalization Loan Fund to support such developments through loans from the California Housing Finance Agency. The bill claims statewide concern, applies to charter cities, and addresses state reimbursement rules for any local costs imposed by the mandate.

AB 2192 (Gonzalez, Jeff, R) Sales and use taxes: farm equipment and machinery.

Current Text: 04/20/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 04/27/2026 - In committee: Set, second hearing. Held under submission.

Location: 04/21/2026 - Assembly Revenue and Taxation
Summary: The bill allows the existing state sales and use tax exemption for farm equipment, machinery, and parts used primarily to produce and harvest agricultural products to be incorporated into local sales and use taxes (including those under the Bradley‑Burns law) by deleting the current provision that excludes that incorporation; this change is temporary and would expire January 1, 2032. Because local tax revenues could be reduced, the bill also appropriates General Fund money to the State Controller to reimburse affected counties and cities for those revenue losses. It further tightens requirements for any new tax‑expenditure bill by adding additional information obligations on top of existing requirements (specific purposes, performance indicators, and data collection). The measure would take effect immediately as a tax levy.

AB 2214 (Jackson, D) Government finance: deposits.

Current Text: 04/13/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 04/14/2026 - Re-referred to Com. on B. & F.

Location: 04/13/2026 - Assembly Local Government

Page 7 ends

Summary: Current law places certain surplus state funds in the Pooled Money Investment Account (PMIA) and generally requires banks receiving those deposits to post securities worth at least 110% of the deposit. The bill creates a Community Reinvestment Account (CRA) inside the PMIA, requires the Treasurer to transfer $4 billion into it (constituting an appropriation), and directs deposits from the CRA to go only to institutions that commit to specified lending activities—chiefly verified small-business lending in underserved census tracts and first-time or first-generation homebuyer lending, with at least 50% of CRA funds used for defined affordable housing lending.

For CRA deposits (and for a related Small Business Lending Time Deposit Program), the collateral requirement is lowered so securities must equal at least 90% of the deposit. Institutions receiving CRA deposits must file quarterly nonidentifying performance reports to the Treasurer, who must publish the data publicly.

AB 2296 (Papan, D) Planning and zoning: housing element: regional housing needs allocation.

Current Text: 05/18/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/10/2026 - Referred to Com. on HOUSING.

Calendar: 06/24/26 S-HOUSING 1:30 p.m. - State Capitol, Room 112 ARREGUÍN, JESSE, Chair Location: 06/10/2026 - Senate Housing
Summary: The bill would extend several deadlines in the regional housing need and housing element allocation process, while stating legislative intent to consider future revision deadlines based on smaller regional groupings and jurisdiction size.

Specifically, it would give cities and counties more time to form subregional entities, give councils of governments more time to determine subregional housing need shares, and move earlier deadlines for developing allocation methodologies and draft plans, except for a specified 2027 cycle exception. It would also create a state-mandated local program but declare that no state reimbursement is required.

AB 2313 (Berman, D) Gas corporations: gas distribution service line replacements: alternatives.

Current Text: 05/22/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/10/2026 - Referred to Com. on E., U & C.

Calendar: 06/30/26 S-ENERGY, UTILITIES AND COMMUNICATIONS 9 a.m. - 1021 O Street, Room 1200 ALLEN, BENJAMIN, Chair
Location: 06/10/2026 - Senate Energy, Utilities and Communications Summary: The bill would require the Public Utilities Commission to create a Gas Distribution Service Line Replacement Alternatives Program by January 1, 2028, offering incentives to certain residential gas customers to use alternatives and stop gas service instead of replacing a gas distribution service line.

It would exempt emergency replacements, require annual review and reporting to the Legislature beginning in 2029, and repeal the program on January 1, 2035. Because violations of commission actions would be crimes, the bill would create a state-mandated local program, but it states that no reimbursement is required.

AB 2415 (Hoover, R) Transit-oriented housing developments: alternative plans.

Current Text: 04/23/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/10/2026 - Referred to Coms. on HOUSING and L. GOV.

Calendar: 06/24/26 S-HOUSING 1:30 p.m. - State Capitol, Room 112 ARREGUÍN, JESSE, Chair Location: 06/10/2026 - Senate Housing
Summary: Current law says that on sites zoned for residential mixed or commercial use within specified distances of a transit stop, housing projects that meet certain requirements must be allowed as transit-oriented housing developments. Those rules automatically apply to local agencies beginning July 1, 2026, unless the agency adopts a local ordinance or a specified “transit-oriented development (TOD) alternative plan.” Existing law requires such alternative plans not to reduce the capacity of any TOD zone—measured by total housing units or residential floor area—by more than 50%, and it defines key terms for this framework. This bill would permit a TOD

Page 8 ends

alternative plan to reduce capacity by more than 50% in up to one TOD zone, provided the plan satisfies certain conditions.

AB 2463 (Petrie-Norris, D) Public Utilities Commission: rates: returns on equity.

Current Text: 04/13/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/16/2026 - From committee: Do pass and re-refer to Com. on APPR. (Ayes 17. Noes 0.) (June 16). Rereferred to Com. on APPR.

Location: 06/16/2026 - Senate Appropriations
Summary: The bill requires the Public Utilities Commission (which regulates electric and gas utilities and sets just and reasonable rates) to be more transparent when it sets an authorized return on equity (ROE). For any ROE decision issued on or after January 1, 2028, the commission must disclose the analytical basis for its ROE determination, including each financial model used and an analysis of how the utility’s credit quality relates to the authorized ROE. If the commission’s methodology in a cost-of-capital proceeding materially departs from the methodology disclosed in the most recent prior decision for that same utility, it must identify each material departure and provide a reasoned explanation. The commission must open a rulemaking to update its cost-ofcapital determinations and consider a related long-term plan, and it must include analysis of utility credit-rating trends in its annual report to the Legislature. Because violating a commission order is a crime, the bill creates a state-mandated local program, but it specifies that no state reimbursement is required under the stated statutory provision.

AB 2464 (Wicks, D) Energy: firm zero-carbon resources.

Current Text: 03/26/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/10/2026 - Referred to Com. on E., U & C.

Location: 06/10/2026 - Senate Energy, Utilities and Communications Summary: The bill requires the California Energy Commission, working with the Public Utilities Commission, to deliver to the Legislature by January 1, 2028 a statewide assessment of the role and necessity of firm zero‑carbon resources for meeting the state’s clean‑energy and reliability goals (including the 100% zero‑carbon by 2045 policy). The report must evaluate potential technologies and integration strategies, provide procurement and planning recommendations to deploy and support firm zero‑carbon resources, project current and future renewable and firm zero‑carbon generation capacity, analyze reliability under varying system conditions, and estimate the cost and emissions implications.

AB 2493 (Petrie-Norris, D) Electrical corporations: interconnection: transmission: permitting: auditor.

Current Text: 04/13/2026 - Amended HTML PDF

Calendar: 06/24/26 S-ENERGY, UTILITIES AND COMMUNICATIONS 9 a.m. - 1021 O Street, Room 1200 ALLEN, BENJAMIN, Chair
Location: 06/10/2026 - Senate Energy, Utilities and Communications Summary: The bill directs the California Public Utilities Commission (PUC), which already regulates electrical utilities, to require large electric utilities to begin permitting projects that need PUC approval within one year after either the Independent System Operator (ISO) adopts a transmission plan or a generator interconnection agreement is executed, with limited extensions allowed for good cause and PUC enforcement if deadlines are missed. Starting January 1, 2027, the PUC must also require those utilities to retain independent third‑party auditors to annually review transmission and interconnection filings, the utilities’ progress on required network upgrades, compliance with permitting deadlines, and adherence to any PUC‑ordered remedies; the auditor must report to the PUC and the commission must issue remedial directives within 90 days if deficiencies are found.

Because violations of PUC orders are criminal under existing law, these new requirements become part of the Public Utilities Act and create a state‑mandated local program; the bill states that no state reimbursement to local agencies is required for the mandated costs for a specified reason.

AB 2516 (Petrie-Norris, D) California Grid Manufacturing Initiative.

Current Text: 04/13/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/10/2026 - Referred to Coms. on E., U & C. and B. P. & E.D.

Calendar: 06/24/26 S-ENERGY, UTILITIES AND COMMUNICATIONS 9 a.m. - 1021 O Street, Room 1200 ALLEN, BENJAMIN, Chair
Location: 06/10/2026 - Senate Energy, Utilities and Communications Summary: This bill directs the Energy Unit within GO‑Biz to create the California Grid Manufacturing Initiative to identify and centrally procure “critical electricity grid components,” and to incentivize new or expanded in‑state manufacturing of those components. It requires public utilities to submit, by January 1, 2028 and periodically thereafter, projections of unmet purchasing needs for such components and allows the Energy Unit to coordinate pooled procurements; utilities may precommit to buy under specified conditions that become binding if met. The Energy Unit may issue competitive solicitations, provide financial assistance, form production joint ventures, and offer bond financing to build domestic manufacturing capacity. The Public Utilities Commission may permit recovery of initiative costs only if they are just, reasonable, cost‑effective and aligned with state energy policy, and any procurement savings below market price must be credited to ratepayers. The bill creates a continuously appropriated California Grid Manufacturing Initiative Revolving Fund with Manufacturing Incentive and Procurement accounts, authorizes the I‑Bank to issue revenue bonds for the initiative, and declares certain state‑mandated local duties (including criminal penalties tied to commission orders); it also specifies that no state reimbursement to local agencies is required for specified reasons.

AB 2576 (Harabedian, D) Transit-oriented development: exclusions: historic sites.

Current Text: 06/15/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/15/2026 - From committee chair, with author's amendments: Amend, and re-refer to committee. Read second time, amended, and re-referred to Com. on HOUSING.

Calendar: 06/24/26 S-HOUSING 1:30 p.m. - State Capitol, Room 112 ARREGUÍN, JESSE, Chair Location: 05/13/2026 - Senate Housing
Summary: The bill would expand existing exclusions from transit-oriented housing development rules to include certain historic properties listed on the State Historic Resources Inventory before January 1, 2025.

Specifically, it would exempt contributing sites within historic districts on that inventory, as well as parcels individually listed as historical resources on that inventory, if they were designated before January 1, 2025.

SB 16 (Blakespear, D) Mental health: involuntary commitment.

Calendar: 06/23/26 A-HEALTH 1:30 p.m. - 1021 O Street, Room 1100 BONTA, MIA, Chair Location: 06/15/2026 - Assembly Health
Summary: The bill would require county behavioral health directors, rather than merely authorize them, to develop procedures for designating and training professionals under the Lanterman-Petris-Short Act, and it would create a state-mandated local program.

It would also provide that if the Commission on State Mandates finds the bill creates reimbursable state-mandated costs, those costs must be reimbursed under existing statutory procedures.

SB 222 (Wiener, D) Residential heat pump water heater or heat pump HVAC systems.

Page 10 ends

Location: 05/18/2026 - Assembly Housing and Community Development Summary: The bill would create statewide rules to speed and simplify permitting and inspections for residential heat pump water heaters and heat pump HVAC systems, limit related local fees and restrictions, and make certain HOA rules that block these installations unenforceable.

It would require local governments to offer asynchronous inspections and online real-time permitting by set dates, allow only limited local requirements, prohibit permits or inspections for qualifying plug-in-ready window units, and extend protections to common interest developments by invalidating rules that prevent electric appliance replacements or the installation and use of these systems.

SB 327 (McNerney, D) Public utilities: review of accounts: electrical and gas corporations: rates: political influence activities.

Current Text: 06/15/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/15/2026 - Read second time and amended. Re-referred to Com. on APPR.

Location: 06/10/2026 - Assembly Appropriations
Summary: The bill would bar electrical and gas corporations from recovering certain costs related to opposing utility municipalization from ratepayers and would expand the Public Advocate’s authority to obtain information needed to support the Public Utilities Commission’s duties.

It also clarifies that the Public Advocate has the same access to utility accounts and records as the commission.

Because violations would be enforceable under existing law, the bill would create a state-mandated local program but states that no reimbursement is required.

SB 417 (Cabaldon, D) The Affordable Housing Bond Act of 2026.

Current Text: 01/22/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 05/18/2026 - Read second time. Ordered to third reading.

Calendar: 06/18/26 #37 A-THIRD READING FILE - SENATE BILLS Location: 05/18/2026 - Assembly THIRD READING
Summary: Current law includes programs that offer support for different types of housing needs such as emergency housing, multifamily housing, farmworker housing, and home ownership for very low and low-income households. It also covers down payment assistance for first-time home buyers. The law permits the issuance of bonds to fund these housing initiatives as well as related projects like infill development and brownfield cleanup.

The proposed legislation, titled the Affordable Housing Bond Act of 2026, seeks to authorize $10 billion in bonds, which will be used to finance affordable housing and home ownership programs. These programs include the Multifamily Housing Program, the CalHome Program, and the Joe Serna Jr. Farmworker Housing Grant Program.

The bill will be presented to voters during the November 3, 2026, statewide general election and is designed to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.

SB 492 (Menjivar, D) Youth Housing Bond Act of 2026.

address homelessness by moving individuals and families into permanent housing. This bill proposes the Youth Housing Bond Act of 2026, which would enable $1 billion in bonds to fund the Youth Housing Program. This program would provide financial awards to local agencies, nonprofits, and joint ventures to acquire, renovate, or construct youth centers and housing. This proposal will be voted on in the statewide election on November 3, 2026, and is designed to take effect immediately as an urgent measure.

SB 837 (Reyes, D) Disaster and emergency preparedness.

Current Text: 01/05/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 05/04/2026 - Referred to Coms. on AGING & L.T.C and E.M.

Calendar: 06/23/26 A-AGING AND LONG TERM CARE 3 p.m. - State Capitol, Room 444 AHRENS, PATRICK, Chair
Location: 05/04/2026 - Assembly Aging and Long Term Care Summary: Existing law establishes the Aging and Disability Resource Connection (ADRC) program, managed by the California Department of Aging, to help consumers and their families access information on long-term services and supports (LTSS) and assist older adults, caregivers, and persons with disabilities at the local level. ADRC programs are required to offer specific services, including enhanced information and referral services, at convenient hours. The bill mandates that ADRC programs also provide disaster and emergency preparedness training tailored for older adults and people with disabilities to enhance their safety before, during, and after emergencies or natural disasters.

SB 868 (Wiener, D) Electricity: portable solar generation devices.

Current Text: 06/15/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/15/2026 - Read second time and amended. Re-referred to Com. on APPR.

Location: 06/10/2026 - Assembly Appropriations
Summary: The bill would exempt portable solar generation devices from state and utility interconnection requirements and limit what electrical corporations and local publicly owned electric utilities may require of customers using them.

It would bar fees or other mandated actions related to the device or its exported electricity, while allowing utilities to require simple online notice of the device’s address, make, model, and size; it would also create statemandated local program duties but specify that no reimbursement is required.

SB 886 (Padilla, D) California Technology Innovation and Ratepayer Protection Act.

Current Text: 05/14/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/10/2026 - June 10 hearing postponed by committee.

Calendar: 06/24/26 A-UTILITIES AND ENERGY 1:30 p.m. - State Capitol, Room 437 PETRIE-NORRIS, COTTIE, Chair
Location: 06/01/2026 - Assembly Utilities and Energy
Summary: This bill would require the Public Utilities Commission to create by July 1, 2027, a new electricity tariff for participating customers that governs interconnection, service charges, eligibility, cost responsibility, and protections for nonparticipating customers.

The tariff would require disclosure of duplicate interconnection applications, assign transmission upgrade costs to the customer causing them, impose an early termination fee in some cases, require long-term prefunding for new zero-carbon resources and demand response participation, and direct utilities to publish maps of suitable interconnection locations; because violations of commission actions can be criminal offenses, the bill would create a state-mandated local program but state that no reimbursement is required.

SB 905 (Becker, D) Electricity.

Calendar: 06/24/26 A-UTILITIES AND ENERGY 1:30 p.m. - State Capitol, Room 437 PETRIE-NORRIS, COTTIE, Chair
Location: 06/01/2026 - Assembly Utilities and Energy
Summary: The bill expands Public Utilities Commission oversight of electrical corporations by requiring reduced returns on equity for certain capital costs, new performance-based metrics and targets for large utilities, and additional rules on executive compensation, alternative financing, and public grid data disclosure.

It would direct the commission to begin several proceedings by 2028, including a framework for evaluating utility performance and financing options, and to report findings to the Legislature by December 31, 2028, with a later review of the performance framework due by 2030. Because violations of commission actions under the bill could be criminal, it would create a state-mandated local program, while also stating that no reimbursement is required.

SB 907 (Archuleta, D) Driving under the influence and other driving offenses: comprehensive reform.

Calendar: 06/30/26 A-PUBLIC SAFETY 9 a.m. - State Capitol, Room 126 SCHULTZ, NICK, Chair Location: 06/01/2026 - Assembly Public Safety
Summary: This bill increases penalties for certain driving under the influence and hit-and-run offenses by adding sentencing enhancements for prior qualifying convictions within 10 years and expands court advisements about the possible murder consequences of future fatal conduct.

It would impose an additional three-year term for each prior DUI conviction as specified, increase penalties for property-damage and injury/death hit-and-run offenses when tied to prior DUI, reckless driving, or gross vehicular manslaughter violations, and require judges to give the dangerousness advisement even when DUI allegations are dismissed or a lesser plea is entered.

SB 922 (Laird, D) Vehicles: local agency charges: use of streets or highways.

Current Text: 06/17/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 05/26/2026 - Referred to Com. on L. GOV. (Amended text released 6/17/2026) Location: 05/26/2026 - Assembly Local Government
Summary: The bill would narrow an existing ban on local street- or highway-use charges to weight-based fees and would clarify that certain public service-related fees or surcharges for street maintenance are not prohibited.

It also states that local agencies may impose or collect those charges, removes obsolete references, and makes additional technical changes and findings.

SB 924 (Hurtado, D) Low-income energy assistance.

Current Text: 04/20/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/10/2026 - June 10 set for first hearing canceled at the request of author.

Calendar: 06/24/26 A-UTILITIES AND ENERGY 1:30 p.m. - State Capitol, Room 437 PETRIE-NORRIS, COTTIE, Chair
Location: 06/01/2026 - Assembly Utilities and Energy

Page 13 ends

Summary: The bill amends existing law governing the Public Utilities Commission (PUC), which already can require electric and gas utilities to provide home weatherization for low‑income customers when a significant need exists, by adding specific program design and oversight requirements. The PUC must consider cost‑effectiveness at the program level and require utilities to prioritize integrated health, safety, and indoor air quality measures that enable whole‑home improvements, coordinate delivery across fuel and housing types, and allow tenant‑level benefits for rental upgrades while preserving design flexibility. The PUC may also consider non‑energy benefits when setting priorities, must ensure program costs do not create undue ratepayer burdens, and must require utilities to report measurable household affordability outcomes. The bill mandates meaningful public and stakeholder input and alignment of diverse contracting requirements with submitted plans and guidelines, revises the statutory definition of “weatherization,” and notes that violating a PUC order remains a crime; it declares this a state‑mandated local program but specifies no state reimbursement is required.

SB 1003 (Grayson, D) Prohousing enhanced infrastructure financing districts.

Current Text: 05/14/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/17/2026 - VOTE: Do pass and be re-referred to the Committee on [Housing and Community Development] (PASS)
Location: 06/17/2026 - Assembly Housing and Community Development Summary: The bill would allow prohousing-designated cities and counties to create enhanced infrastructure financing districts under specified conditions and would provide greater incentives for jurisdictions and housing projects within those districts.

Specifically, it would authorize prohousing jurisdictions to establish “prohousing enhanced infrastructure financing districts,” set related district requirements, and expand the definition of “prohousing local policies” to include creating such a district. It would also require that the establishing jurisdiction and projects within the district receive enhanced scoring points or preference compared with the baseline given to other prohousing jurisdictions for certain program applications, thereby linking district creation to additional benefits for housing and other community projects.

SB 1005 (Caballero, D) Local agency: payment: rounding amount.

Calendar: 06/18/26 #41 A-THIRD READING FILE - SENATE BILLS (Floor Mgr.- Ward) Location: 06/08/2026 - Assembly THIRD READING
Summary: This bill would allow a local agency, if its governing body adopts a resolution, to round cash payments, refunds, or other cash amounts to the nearest $0.05.

It would apply only to local agencies that choose to participate by majority vote of their governing body, and it would define key terms for implementation. The bill would take effect immediately as an urgency statute.

SB 1014 (Grayson, D) Development projects: preliminary estimate of required improvements: onsite and offsite improvements.

Status: 06/17/2026 - VOTE: Do pass and be re-referred to the Committee on [Housing and Community Development] (PASS)
Location: 06/17/2026 - Assembly Housing and Community Development Summary: This bill would require local governments to provide housing project applicants with timely, itemized information about required improvements and related permit conditions during the application process.

It would let applicants request preliminary estimates or lists of potential improvements, require cities and counties to respond within set deadlines, and require itemized improvement lists before postentitlement permits are issued.

The bill would impose new duties on local agencies, apply statewide including to charter cities, and state that no state reimbursement is required.

SB 1117 (Cervantes, D) Accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units.

Current Text: 02/17/2026 - Introduced HTML PDF
Status: 06/10/2026 - From committee: Do pass and re-refer to Com. on L. GOV. (Ayes 10. Noes 0.) (June 10).

Re-referred to Com. on L. GOV.

Location: 06/10/2026 - Assembly Local Government
Summary: This bill is related to the development of accessory dwelling units (ADUs) in California. Under existing law, local agencies can create ADUs via ordinance or ministerial approval if no ordinance is in place, following specific standards. Fees for constructing ADUs must adhere to the Mitigation Fee Act. Impact fees cannot be charged on ADUs with 750 square feet or less of livable space. For ADUs larger than 750 square feet, fees must be proportional to the main dwelling's size. The bill proposes that fees for ADUs only apply to the area beyond 750 square feet. This bill would change how local agencies calculate these fees, creating a state-mandated local program, and asserts that these changes are of statewide concern, affecting all cities, including charter cities. The bill also specifies that no state reimbursement is required for certain costs imposed by the act.

SB 1138 (Padilla, D) Load-serving entities: resource adequacy requirements.

Current Text: 06/15/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/15/2026 - Read second time and amended. Re-referred to Com. on APPR.

Location: 06/10/2026 - Assembly Appropriations
Summary: This bill would require the Public Utilities Commission to allow load-serving entities to meet up to 25 percent of their resource adequacy obligations through short-term transactions with other load-serving entities, subject to commission rules and possible suspension or adjustment.

It would also require those transactions to be measured in the same time unit used for resource adequacy compliance. Because violations of commission actions enforcing the bill could be crimes, the bill would create a state-mandated local program, but it states that no state reimbursement would be required.

SB 1168 (McNerney, D) Data centers: rate structures.

Current Text: 06/15/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/15/2026 - From committee with author's amendments. Read second time and amended. Re-referred to Com. on U. & E.

Calendar: 06/24/26 A-UTILITIES AND ENERGY 1:30 p.m. - State Capitol, Room 437 PETRIE-NORRIS, COTTIE, Chair
Location: 06/04/2026 - Assembly Utilities and Energy
Summary: The bill would require the Public Utilities Commission to evaluate rate structures so that data centers pay a reasonable share of the costs they create for transmission and distribution, as well as their proportionate share of load-related increases and needed power procurements.

The bill also intends to keep these measures consistent with integrated resource planning requirements and to reduce cost pressure on residential customers by shifting more of the relevant costs to data centers.

SB 1172 (Hurtado, D) Bradley-Burns Uniform Local Sales and Use Tax Law: tax sharing agreements.

Current Text: 04/23/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/17/2026 - VOTE: Do pass and be re-referred to the Committee on [Revenue and Taxation] (PASS)

Page 15 ends

Location: 06/17/2026 - Assembly Revenue and Taxation
Summary: Existing law bars local agencies from making agreements that directly or indirectly divert, rebate, or transfer Bradley-Burns sales and use tax revenue in a way that reduces the amount another local agency would otherwise receive, and requires proposed agreements that do reduce such revenue to be posted online for at least 30 days before approval. This bill adds a cap on consultant pay for a “tax sharing agreement” (any agreement that causes such diversion): a consultant cannot be paid more than the lower of 5% of the total tax revenues shared under the agreement or $250,000. It excludes agreements with the agency’s own staff or unpaid technical advisers, applies only to agreements entered on or after January 1, 2027, and includes findings that the rule is a statewide concern that applies to all cities, including charter cities.

SB 1187 (Durazo, D) Open meetings: majority.

Current Text: 02/19/2026 - Introduced HTML PDF
Status: 05/18/2026 - Referred to Com. on L. GOV.

Location: 05/18/2026 - Assembly Local Government
Summary: The Ralph M. Brown Act mandates that meetings of a local legislative body be open to the public, allowing participation and attendance, with certain exceptions. A "meeting" is defined as any gathering of a majority of the legislative body's members to discuss or act on matters within their jurisdiction. The proposed bill clarifies that "majority" refers to more than half the total seats of the legislative body, including vacant seats.

Additionally, it aligns with constitutional provisions that require statutes limiting public access to meetings or documents to be justified by a demonstrated need. The bill asserts its compliance with these constitutional requirements to ensure transparency in public meetings and records.

SB 1218 (Arreguín, D) Refusal of registration: illegal dumping violation penalties.

Current Text: 05/14/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/08/2026 - Referred to Com. on TRANS.

Calendar: 06/29/26 A-TRANSPORTATION 2:30 p.m. - 1021 O Street, Room 1100 WILSON, LORI, Chair Location: 06/08/2026 - Assembly Transportation
Summary: Current law requires the Department of Motor Vehicles to refuse vehicle registration renewals when an owner or lessee has delinquent parking violations, and it already criminalizes illegal dumping of waste on roads or public areas and, in some cases, dumping in commercial quantities.

The bill would extend the same vehicle registration renewal refusal process to illegal dumping violations by requiring the DMV to refuse to renew the registration when the registered owner or lessee has been mailed a notice of a delinquent illegal dumping violation.

SB 1233 (Allen, D) Public utilities: rates.

Current Text: 06/15/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/15/2026 - Read second time and amended. Re-referred to Com. on APPR.

Location: 06/10/2026 - Assembly Appropriations
Summary: This bill would require electrical and gas utilities seeking rate changes to provide specified information, and it would require the Public Utilities Commission to consider wildfire risk reduction efforts when approving electrical rate changes.

It would also expand the commission’s annual report on utility costs by adding five-year expenditure comparisons by functional category for each utility, require the underlying source data to be published online, and specify that no state reimbursement is required for the resulting mandate.

SB 1349 (Gonzalez, D) Taxation: tax expenditures: Legislative Analyst’s Office: assessment, report, and recommendation.

Current Text: 06/17/2026 - Amended HTML PDF
Status: 06/17/2026 - Read second time and amended. Re-referred to Com. on APPR.

Location: 06/16/2026 - Assembly Appropriations
Summary: The bill would require the Legislative Analyst’s Office to evaluate major state tax expenditures, publish reports with recommendations for the Legislature, and identify possible savings from reducing or limiting those expenditures.

The reports would be issued annually from 2028 through 2032, with legislative committees holding joint public hearings on them, and state tax agencies would have to provide anonymized taxpayer data with privacy protections as needed. The bill would repeal these provisions on January 1, 2033.
