I have compiled another chart from the past sixteen 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 chart below, I compiled data concerning nine additional categories of bills that can be tracked and examined.
The following is the chart and per Session data:
