Why a signature Newsom power move flopped in the last days of the Legislative session
📍 Aftermath
The California legislature collapsed the wildfire liability proposal, with the Assembly and Senate killing the bill after utility complaints, delivering a rare defeat for Governor Newsom. In response, PG&E announced it would scale back planned work and defer billions of dollars in spending.
Coverage of the issue faded after the bill’s failure, leaving the reform effort stalled.
