What is CA AB 170 about?
Existing law requires the Governor, from time to time, to examine the organization of all agencies and determine what changes therein are necessary to accomplish specified purposes. Whenever the Governor finds that reorganization is in the public interest, existing law requires the Governor to prepare one or more reorganization plans, as specified. Existing law prescribes the form, content, and procedure of a reorganization plan. Existing law requires the Legislative counsel to prepare for introduction not later than the next regular session of the Legislature occurring more than 90 days after that in which a Governor's reorganization plan takes effect a bill effecting the changes in the reorganization in the statutes as may be necessary to reflect the changes made by the reorganization plan. Existing law, the Governor's Reorganization Plan No. 1 of 2025, which became effective on July 5, 2025, assigns and reorganizes the functions of state government among executive officers and agencies by, among other things, eliminating the Business, Consumer Services, and Housing Agency as of July 1, 2026, and instead establishing the Business and Consumer Services Agency and the California Housing and Homelessness Agency, each composed of specified departments that are currently within the Business, Consumer Services, and Housing Agency, as provided. This bill would enact the statutory changes necessary to reflect portions of the changes in law made by the Governor's Reorganization Plan No. 1 of 2025. The bill would make an appropriation of $300,000 to the Department of Housing and Community Development for the purpose of supplementing existing contracts pursuant to statutory requirements to translate specified guidelines, as specified. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as a bill providing for appropriations related to the Budget Bill.
