This bill died with 2017-2018 Regular Session. It reached “Passed Assembly” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.

This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Summary

Existing law requires the Director of the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development, not later than February 1, 2019, to provide to the Legislature a strategy for international trade and investment that includes, at minimum, certain specified information, including, among other things, policy goals, objectives, and recommendations necessary to implement a comprehensive international trade and investment program for the state. Existing law requires that this strategy be updated as specified every 5 years. This bill would require that this strategy additionally include an analysis and identification of dominant and emerging foreign markets for California goods and services, including, but not limited to, the state's top trade partners of Mexico and Canada and potential new markets located in Africa and the Caribbean.
