SB 219

Stopping Delays to Major Climate Corporate Accountability Laws

SB 219 makes common-sense technical amendments while preserving the foundational GHG emissions and climate risk disclosure requirements of the recently passed historic Senate Bill 253, the Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act, and Senate Bill 261, the Climate-Related Financial Disclosure Act of 2023. It includes the requirement for first reporting in 2026, thereby ensuring the people of California benefit from these critical climate transparency laws without delay.
