USLege brings all California legislative and regulatory activity into one powerful, AI-powered platform. From the floor to committee rooms to state agency rulemaking, we track bills, votes, amendments, hearings, and regulations in real time, so you never have to bounce between fragmented sites or cobble together updates by hand.

USLege uses advanced AI to:

  • Transcribe, alert, analyze, and summarize every legislative and agency meeting
  • Track key conversations in real time, across committees and departments
  • Surface the exact moments you care about, without watching hours of video

California · Frequently asked

What teams ask about tracking California.

Yes. USLege tracks bills, amendments, votes, and hearings across the California Legislature, State Assembly and Senate, from introduction through committee to the floor, alongside state agency rulemaking. USLege provides live searchable hearing video across the vast majority of states, including California, backed by transcripts that cover all 50 states.
What is Capitol Confidential Pro?
Capitol Confidential Pro is the Pro tier of Hearst Newspapers' California statehouse newsletter, combined with full access to the USLege platform. It's part of a 2026 partnership between USLege and Hearst Newspapers, available in California and New York, co-branded as Capitol Confidential Pro powered by USLege.
Can USLege track California outside of active floor sessions?
Yes. The California Legislature is one of the nation's few full-time state legislatures, and much of its policy work happens in committee and in state agency rulemaking between floor votes. USLege tracks that activity continuously, not just scheduled votes.
Does USLege capture California committee testimony, not just bill status?
Yes. USLege uses AI to transcribe, alert on, and summarize California legislative and agency meetings, turning spoken testimony and floor debate into searchable, actionable insight.
Does USLege cover local government in California?
Yes. Alongside the Legislature and state agencies, USLege is built for teams that also track local government activity across California. If your team needs a meeting USLege does not yet cover, send the link and it gets added to the archive.
Is my California work secure, and does USLege train AI on my data?
Your work is private. USLege is SOC 2 Type II and TX-RAMP certified, and never trains on customer data. See the Security & Trust page for current certifications.
How fast can my team start tracking California?
Fast. Most teams are set up in 15 minutes today and tracking California bills, hearings, and rules the same afternoon. Onboarding and unlimited team training are included, and migration off your current tool is included.
