The California Guaranteed Income Statewide Feasibility Study Act.

Summary

The bill orders the State Department of Social Services to hire one or more qualified contractors to research how a permanent, statewide guaranteed‑income program could be funded, administered, and scaled. It would involve data sharing among several state agencies, a steering committee of pilot‑program operators and participants, and a final feasibility report due by Jan. 1, 2028. The goal is to determine whether expanding the existing pilot to all Californians is practical and beneficial.
