The bipartisan push to create a national film and TV production tax credit goes beyond just California. This is about making sure that this critical American industry continues to compete globally and support jobs, businesses, and communities across the nation.
A bipartisan group of lawmakers has unveiled new legislation that would create a 20%-30% federal incentive for U.S. film and TV production: • The incentive, stacked with state tax credits, would potentially create the world’s most generous production subsidies. • “If it passes and it stacks clean, shooting in Georgia or California or New York is the best deal on the planet,” says Entertainment Partners’ Joe Chianese. “Nothing overseas comes close.” wp.me/pc8uak-1lHNjK

Today's ruling affirms that in California, we will defend democracy — using every branch of government. The new laws I signed last week add additional protections so attacks like this cannot happen again. People deserve to know their ballot is counted and secure. In California, we will do everything we can to protect that constitutional right — this year, and beyond.

CA continues to lead the world in protecting our communities from climate change. Healthy environments go hand in hand with thriving communities and a strong economy.
There’s nothing normal about the path Donald Trump is taking America on. The climate crisis is not complicated. The science is clear. California refuses to go backward.

Productive meeting today with @AusAmbUSA Moriarty at #ClimateWeekNYC. We're excited to build on the remarkable progress California and Australia have made together through our 2023 MOU — from energy security and affordability to climate resilience and battery storage.

California is PROOF that you don't have to sacrifice your economic future to transition to clean energy. We’ve seen 40% GDP growth since 2019. A reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by double digits. No jurisdiction in America has grown faster than California. Let's disabuse ourselves of the idea that innovative progress gets in the way of economic growth and prosperity.

Thank you @CAgovernor for asking me to join the group of experts advising California on AI safety and security governance. The EO tasks us to explore roles for IVOs, which builds on my work with @Fathom_org, including assessing the efficacy of a kill switch and the adequacy of frontier labs’ safety frameworks.

Today during Climate Week, Governor Gavin Newsom and I announced we've taken the next steps toward Washington joining the California–Québec carbon market in 2027. States and subnational governments are stepping up and leading at a time when the federal government is trying to dismantle U.S. climate policy. Linkage isn’t just good climate policy — it’s smart economics. Linking will unlock greater emissions reductions, lower the cost of clean technologies, and create good‑paying jobs in high‑growth industries. We’re excited to be moving forward.
It’s a deep point of pride that California is moving forward with the process of linking its Cap-and-Invest program to Washington’s carbon market, building on our existing partnership with Québec to cut emissions and toxic global pollution. This means more reliable pollution reductions and local investments, no matter what happens in DC.

I'm introducing the group of experts I've tasked with helping deliver on my executive order to further strengthen California's AI framework — including accelerated independent oversight and advancing the creation of "kill switches" for frontier models. While Trump brainstorms new names, California is taking action. gov.ca.gov/2026/09/23/govern…

Great to be at the @americaisallin event with @CAgovernor to discuss climate, competitiveness, independence. California is doing an impressive job in marrying its climate ambition with spectacular growth. We’ll further step up our collaboration in carbon markets and clean tech.

Climate pollution knows no borders. By joining forces with Quebec and exploring linking our carbon market with Washington’s, we are setting the stage to strengthen pollution reduction and create an even stronger market. Learn more: ow.ly/b9WL50ZQGhZ

We are heating up and choking up. The wets are getting wetter. The dries are getting drier. And the federal government is doubling down on stupid. To get theirs and sell out the American people. Our children. That’s the moment we are living in. This moment requires moral authority.
