California League of Women Voters (LWVC) Advocacy
Thanks to those who have answered the call for 2025 Action Alerts to support civil rights, election protections, reproductive healthcare and racial justice. The following League-sponsored bills became California Law in 2025:
SJR-1 (Wiener) – Rescinding previous applications for a federal constitutional convention. Rescinds all of California’s prior calls for a Constitutional Convention, closing the door on a process that could have put the Constitution at risk. This bill has passed and is on its way to the federal government to be officially tallied.
SB 42 (Umberg) – California Fair Elections Act. This sends the measure to the November 2026 ballot, giving voters the power to decide whether to lift the ban on public financing of campaigns and reduce the influence of money in politics.
AB 260 (Aguiar-Curry) – Sexual and reproductive health care. Protects access to medication abortion, ensuring that patients, providers, and facilities can continue to provide safe, legal, and accessible reproductive healthcare.
AB 1071 (Kaltra) – Criminal procedure; discrimination. Revises and clarifies procedures for pursuing relief for violations of the Racial Justice Act (RJA) and provides judges more discretion in fashioning a remedy to a violation.
