What happened

Well supportedReported by 15 independent outlets

The California Legislature sent several bills to Governor Gavin Newsom for consideration, with the Governor having until September 30 to approve or veto them. One package, Assembly Bill 1896, proposes barring certain former immigration enforcement officers and contractors from public employment across the state, including police work, if the Governor signs it. Separately, Assembly Bill 2222 seeks to provide refundable payroll tax credits of up to $20,000 per reporter for small, independent newsrooms.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

AB 1896 would establish new disclosure requirements for applicants seeking police training, requiring them to disclose past work in immigration enforcement under penalty of perjury. If signed, the bill would mandate these changes begin on January 1, 2028. The successful passage of AB 2222 could provide baseline economic stability for small media outlets.
