5 New CA Laws That Will Take Effect July 1
- California will enact nearly 200 new laws on July 1, 2025, covering consumer protections, labor standards, mental health, and safety measures statewide.

- These laws aim to enhance consumer control, improve worker protections, support mental health interventions, and promote transparency in commerce and labor.
