Every year, the state and federal governments propose and adopt new laws during the legislative session. The Office of Economic Development and Government Affairs (EDGA) monitors how these proposed laws might impact the County and its residents.
The Legislative Program document outlines the Board of Supervisors’ policy priorities and guides EDGA’s advocacy for the County’s interests. We update it each year with input from County departments, County boards and commissions, community members, and local organizations to make sure it represents the topics that San Diegans care about most.
Once we receive that feedback, EDGA looks for common themes and works with County departments to develop a draft document. In December, EDGA will present a draft 2026 Legislative Program for consideration and approval by the Board of Supervisors.
The Legislative Program has three sections: sponsorship proposals, priority issues, and policy guidelines. You can read more about each part in the FAQs. In recent years, the County of San Diego advocated for policies related to topics like:
Affordable housing and homelessness
Behavioral health
Climate change and the environment
Equity and justice
Public health and access to medical care
Community safety
To review the 2025 Legislative Program and which bills we advocated for this year, visit the Documents section on the right-hand side of the page.
Your input on the 2026 Legislative Program will help make it more accessible, easier to understand, and representative of the region’s most pressing issues.
