This bill would exempt the construction of accessory dwelling units (ADUs) in Los Angeles County, and in any county that is subject of a Governor state of emergency declaration that involved damage to housing after February 1, 2025, from the requirements of the Coastal Act. As written, the Coastal Act exemptions are far too broad and ripe for abuse. We're working with the author's office to find language that expedites ADU construction in the Coastal Zone while protecting beach access and coastal resources. (Referred to Senate Housing Committee)
Would overturn California Coastal Commission's action on the increased launch cadence at Vandenberg Air Force Base. Bill raises separation of powers questions. 5/27/25 – No longer active: Author sworn in as United States Attorney for California’s Central District.)
