Additional Categories of Bills Over the Past Few Sessions

Last week, I put together a chart from the past fifteen years of the California Legislature and the number of bills each 2-year Session under 14 categories in comparison to the number of bills introduced that session. In the following chart, I came up with eight additional categories of bills that can be tracked and examined.

The following is the chart and per Session data:

Session	Sunset Date	Contingent Enactment	Double-Jointed	Pilot Project	Applies to All Cities	Retroactive Effect	Public Right of Access Disclaimer	Disclaim Gift of Public Funds
2023	257	7	102	45	63	59	71	22
2021 – 22	485	16	221	90	82	137	156	43
2019 – 20	422	10	140	75	74	171	129	18
2017 – 18	415	4	213	92	15	99	110	11
2015 – 16	372	6	188	83	4	114	100	9
