In the early hours of Thursday morning, legislators left the building after a final legislative recess leaving nearly 800 bills for Governor Newsom to sign or veto before September 30. If the governor chooses not to act on these bills, they will become law without his signature. The legislative session adjourns for the year on November 30, and the new legislators elected for the 2023-24 session will be sworn in on December 5, 2022.
