Gov. Gavin Newsom has finished off this year’s legislative session, signing 890 bills — and rejecting 156 others — over the last several weeks.
FILE – California Gov. Gavin Newsom announces a proposal to build 1,200 small homes across the state to reduce homelessness in Sacramento Calif., on March 16, 2023. Newsom signed two laws on Wednesday, Oct. 11, 2023, to fast-track low-income housing on surplus land owned by nonprofit colleges and religious institutions and to streamline the housing permitting process. California will soon be home to a task force dedicated to fentanyl overdose prevention.
“Newsom has been put in a position of serving as the legislature’s adult supervision,” said Dan Schnur, a political analyst and professor at the University of California-Berkeley, the University of Southern California and Pepperdine University. “He indulges their instincts when he can, but there are certain points, particularly on fiscal and public safety matters, where he has to rein them in.”
Legislation that will trickle down to California’s public school students include bills that will increase support for LGBTQ+ students, prohibit book bans, and mandate schools haveon each campus, among other topics.
With a federal fraud trial underway over the collapse of cryptocurrency giant FTX, Newsom signed a pair of bills, AB 39 and SB 401, aimed at providing some oversight. He even penned a signing message for AB 39 saying “stronger consumer and investor protections will prevent fraud and ensure bad actors are held accountable.”
Newsom’s veto rates — 15% in 2023, 14% in 2022, 8% in 2021, and 13% in 2020 — have been more or less in line with his Democratic predecessor, Jerry Brown, and lower than those of Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger, according to the Senate research office survey.
