AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Billionaire Tax: California voters rejected Proposition 40, a proposed one-time 5% tax on billionaires. Opponents vastly outspent supporters, and the defeat exposed a divide among Democrats over taxing wealth. Climate Rules: A federal appeals court blocked California from requiring companies to report emissions across their supply chains and climate-related financial risks, while allowing rules on emissions from companies’ own operations and purchased energy to stand. Cost of Living: Governor-elect Xavier Becerra says he wants to freeze utility bills and home insurance premiums, but has offered few details. The proposal could put him at odds with powerful industries. Insurance: Jane Kim won the insurance commissioner race after campaigning to overhaul the system, including a state-backed disaster insurance plan and lower costs for consumers.
