The California Journalism Competition and Preservation Act, which passed the Assembly in June and moved on to the state Senate, will return to the legislative floor next year.
California Journalism Competition and Preservation Act
The bill passed in the Assembly with bipartisan support June 1 and moved on to the state Senate. A hearing was initially scheduled for July 11, but Wicks’ office announced Friday it would be rescheduled for 2024, picking back up at the same point in the legislative process. “This interim hearing underscores my commitment to protecting journalism, California journalists and the access to a free and vibrant press that is essential to our democracy,” Umberg said in the news release. “My greatest concern is that we enact legislation that is fair, and that the benefits in this bill flow specifically to support local journalists — and in turn, all Californians.”
