California didn't accidentally become the world's fourth-largest economy. Working Californians put in the hours, entrepreneurs bet on our future, and key investments and partnerships made us a $4.5 trillion powerhouse. That's the California story — and nobody does it like us.
Under Governor Newsom, California's Economy Tops $4.5 Trillion

What's a better place to sign legislation than atop the Golden Gate Bridge? California is doubling down on our innovation economy by putting a $7.5B research bond before voters in 2028 to build on our research ecosystem, create new jobs, and develop new tech that improves lives.

California is making it easier for students and families to access the services they need to succeed. I just signed a new law to strengthen partnerships between community schools and Promise Neighborhoods — better connecting families with academic, health, and other community-based services.

AI should expand opportunity, not come at the expense of workers. That's why I just signed first-in-the-nation laws to protect California workers as businesses adopt AI.

I’m signing legislation to strengthen independent journalism and help qualifying local news organizations hire and retain journalists in California. A free press isn't supposed to make government comfortable, it’s supposed to make government accountable.

Proud to sign SB 925 at UC Berkeley, accelerating the development of California's quantum and fusion energy industry with a new $30M investment in our state budget. California's always been where the future happens first. Quantum is the next frontier, and we're leading the way.

I just signed legislation to protect California's coast from expanded offshore oil drilling and to expand access to public parks and outdoor spaces. While Donald Trump tries to throw America's public lands away to private developers, California is doing the exact opposite.

California will now certify non-ultra-processed food with a new seal, providing clear info on packages. Washington can talk all they want about "Making America Healthy Again" while food recalls pile up on their watch, but California continues to actually lead the way.

California is enforcing stricter DUI laws to continue the promise of making our communities safer and honoring the lives of those affected by impaired driving. I won't stand by as more lives are lost and more families are forever changed by those who drive under the influence.

I just signed bills that strengthen protections for places of worship and expand security resources for nonprofits across the state. Every Californian should be able to walk into a house of worship without fear, and every nonprofit should be able to bring people together safely.

There’s nothing normal about the path Donald Trump is taking America on. The climate crisis is not complicated. The science is clear. California refuses to go backward.

Affordability and climate action go hand-in-hand — and that couldn’t be more clear than with California’s Cap-and-Invest program.

We’ve got a guy in the White House doubling down on stupid. He calls climate change a “hoax” and a “con job.” That’s the real crisis in this country at the moment.

In the 20 years since California's carbon emission peak in 2004, we've both slashed those emissions by 28% and nearly doubled our economy. The Golden State’s economy is growing BECAUSE of our climate action, not despite it. #ClimateWeekNYC

First, Trump banned independent news from the White House. Now, he's launching what is quite literally state-run TV to try drowning out the fact that he and his corrupt administration are failing the American people. This is truly autocratic behavior from a failed President.
