United States Capitol Building on a clear day.

The deadline for participation closed at 11:59pm on September 14, 2026. Please follow along for updates on the results of public comment and information about the project! In the next couple of months, we will draft the 2027 Legislative Program and get ready to present it to the Board of Supervisors in December.


Every year, the state and federal government develops new laws during the legislative session. The Office of Economic Development and Government Affairs (EDGA) monitors how these policies could impact the County and its residents.

The Legislative Program document outlines the Board of Supervisors’ policy priorities at the state and federal levels. We update it each year with input from County departments, boards and commissions, community members, and local organizations to make sure it represents what San Diegans care about most.

After analyzing this feedback, EDGA will draft the 2027 Legislative Program. In December 2026, we will present the draft for consideration and approval by the Board of Supervisors.


In recent years, the County of San Diego has 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

Learn about the parts of the Legislative Program and which bills we advocated for this year in the Advocacy Documents and FAQ sections of this page.

Your feedback will help make the 2027 Legislative Program more accessible to our communities and responsive to their needs.
