2024 Departing Members – STATE ASSEMBLY

On November 5, 2024, voters will cast their ballot on federal, state, and local races, along with 10 statewide propositions and hundreds of local ballot measures. How many state legislators will be departing this year?

Every two years, all 80 seats of the State Assembly and half of the 40 seats in the State Senate are up for election. There will be a dozen new members of the Senate and two dozen new members of the Assembly when the Legislature convenes its next 2-year Session on Monday, December 2. There could be more if any legislator running for re-election is unsuccessful.

The following includes the 24 departing State Assembly Members.

On December 2, the Legislature will convene their 2025-26 Legislative Session. So, how many new legislators will be seated at that time?

For the State Assembly, assuming the status quo regarding those state assembly members running for re-election (i.e., that they will win their seats again next month), there will be at least 24 new state assembly members.

The following are the 24 departing Assembly Members, in alphabetical order (along with their party affiliation and district number), and whether their departure is due to term limits or whether they have additional years to serve:
