The League of California Cities delivers for cities year after year. We defend local control through advocacy efforts in the Legislature, at the ballot box, in the courts, and through strategic storytelling that informs and educates the public, policymakers, and opinion leaders. Cal Cities also offers education and training programs designed to teach city officials about new developments in their field and exchange solutions to common challenges facing their cities.

Cal Cities-sponsored bill puts local officials in the driver’s seat
SB 915 would allow local governments to regulate driverless vehicles like taxis
SB 915 faces a steep, but climbable path forward. Last year, the Legislature voted overwhelmingly in favor of a bill that would limit self-driving trucks — despite threats and intense lobbying from major technology companies. The measure was ultimately vetoed by Gov. Gavin Newsom, who argued that the state was already doing enough.
