AB 133 (Gabriel) — Budget Act of 2025: Summary

What this bill is

  • Bill number: AB 133
  • Title: Budget Act of 2025
  • Purpose: The bill expresses the Legislature’s intent to enact statutory changes relating to the Budget Act of 2025. It does not itself contain appropriations or substantive budget provisions.
  • Author: Assemblymember Gabriel
  • Status: In committee; hearing postponed by the committee (as of 2025-06-25)

Primary purpose and provisions

  • Core provision: Section 1 states, “It is the intent of the Legislature to enact statutory changes relating to the Budget Act of 2025.”
  • Nature of the bill: An intent and authorizing measure rather than a fiscal or policy bill with immediate programmatic changes.
  • Fiscal/Policy scope: The Digest indicates no appropriation, no fiscal committee involvement, and no local program provisions. The bill is not structured to enact new spending or independent statutory policies by itself.

  • Introduced: January 8, 2025
  • Initial actions:

    • March 17–20, 2025: Passed through floor stages in the Assembly (second reading and third reading) and sent to the Senate. Entries indicate passage with a majority vote (Ayes 53, Noes 17) on March 20.

    • March 18–17, 2025: Various committee actions and reassignments noted.
  • Current status: Still in committee with a hearing postponed, which indicates no immediate movement toward final enactment.

Fiscal and administrative implications

  • Direct fiscal impact: None indicated. No appropriations or expenditures are associated with AB 133 itself.
  • Budget process role: Acts as a framework- or pathway-related measure intended to guide future statutory changes connected to the Budget Act of 2025, rather than to obligate or allocate funds at this stage.
  • Affected entities: No specific programs or agencies are named; the bill would affect subsequent statutory changes that relate to the Budget Act of 2025, pending future legislative action.

Key takeaways

  • AB 133 is an interim, non-fiscal measure focused on signaling legislative intent to enact statutory changes tied to the Budget Act of 2025.
  • It has progressed through general legislative steps but currently has a postponed hearing in committee, delaying any final enactment.
  • Readers should monitor forthcoming committee agendas for whether a hearing is scheduled and whether additional substantive provisions will accompany or follow this intent.
