5 New CA Laws That Will Take Effect July 1
- California will implement almost 200 new laws on July 1, 2025, covering consumer protections, wage increases, and mental health updates.
- These laws follow legislative efforts to expand fertility treatment access, update the CARE Court program, and improve consumer rights for subscriptions and rentals.
- Key measures include requiring affirmative consent for subscription renewals, mandatory upfront disclosure of short-term rental cleaning fees, increased minimum wages in several cities, and improved CARE Act court notifications.
- For example, hotel and airport workers in Los Angeles will see wages rise to $22.50 per hour, and violators of rental fee rules face fines up to $10,000.
- These changes aim to enhance consumer transparency, protect workers, and support mental health care access while setting standards that may influence broader policy trends.
