This legislation will address the affordable housing crisis, Black maternal mortality, social media addiction, medical debt, and more!
Last month, Governor Gavin Newsom signed a long list of bills into law to improve the lives of Californians, and a number of them were sponsored by our Attorney General!
Check out the legislation Rob sponsored that was passed by both chambers of the California State Legislature and signed by Gov. Newsom:
- AB 1893: This will facilitate housing production in cities and counties that fail to adopt a compliant housing element on time, to help alleviate the affordable housing crisis.
- AB 2319: This will reduce the alarming and disproportionate maternal mortality rate of Black women and other pregnant persons of color by ensuring the successful implementation of implicit bias training.
- AB 2432: This will increase penalties for corporate malfeasance, and use those fines to fund much-needed crime victim service programs.
- AB 2695: This will help address the missing and murdered Indigenous persons crisis by requiring law enforcement agencies to collect data on crimes occurring on Indian lands and report that information to the California Department of Justice.
- AB 3042: This will help our state solve more crime by directing funding from criminal fines to essential crime-solving DNA services.
- SB 976: This will help protect our children and teens from social media addiction and adverse mental health effects by requiring parental consent for social media companies to push algorithmic feeds, notifications, and other addictive design features to users under the age of 18.
- SB 1037: This will enhance the Attorney General’s ability to seek civil penalties in court against local governments that violate state housing law, helping us better ensure affordable housing for all.
- SB 1061: This will protect consumers from having their credit scores negatively impacted by medical debt.
Each one of these laws will make a material difference in the lives of countless Californians.
