The 2024 California legislative season is over. The Legislature had until Aug. 31, 2024, to pass bills, and Gov. Gavin Newsom had until Sept. 30, 2024, to sign or veto them. The bills signed by the governor take effect Jan. 1, 2025.
The 2024 legislative session was fairly quiet as it relates to the California workers' compensation process. Aside from the electronic signature provision, it is probably more notable for the bills that were vetoed than those signed into law.
