Legislative Process

Overview

Legislative Process

The legislature will reconvene for the start of the 2023-2024 Legislative Session on January 4, 2023.  As the first year of the two-year session, legislators will have the opportunity to bring forward fresh solutions to address California’s most pressing issues. 2023 brings the highest number of newly elected officials to Sacramento as Californians voted for the first time in November 2022 for California’s newly established legislative districts in response to the 2020 Census. Legislators have until February 17, 2023, to introduce bills this year. For more information about the legislative process please see the links below.
