Legislation sponsored by LWVC that was signed into law:
Voting rights:
AB 1037 (Berman) and SB 77 (Umberg) are wins that will modernize the way that voters are notified of and correct errors on ballot envelopes so that every eligible vote is counted in California, and every voter is heard.
AB 292 (Pellerin) provides information directly on No Party Preference presidential primary ballots regarding how to request a partisan ballot and makes it easier to replace the original ballot.
Climate:
SB 253 (Wiener), the Climate Accountability Act is a groundbreaking advance that will require companies doing business in California to publicly disclose annual greenhouse gas emissions.
Affordable Housing:
SB 423 (Wiener) will extend SB 35’s streamlined building permitting process (which sunsets in 2026) to 2036 for cities that are behind on meeting state-mandated housing goals.
