Assemblymember Greg Wallis has introduced AB 2063, a bill aimed at increasing transparency in California’s legislative process. The proposed measure would require that position letters submitted through the Legislature’s online portal be made publicly available alongside other bill information starting with the 2027–28 Regular Session.

These position letters, which come from organizations, unions, businesses, and advocacy groups, inform lawmakers about how proposed laws may affect different groups. Under AB 2063, these documents would be posted electronically in a single location to make it easier for Californians to see who is weighing in on legislation that could impact their lives. This change builds on existing practices of sharing bill texts, histories, analyses, and votes to promote greater public understanding and participation.

Wallis stated: “This commonsense step builds on the state’s existing system for sharing bill texts, histories, analyses, and votes, helping to foster greater public understanding and participation.”

Greg Wallis represents the Coachella Valley area and serves on several legislative committees including Budget and Economic Development. According to his official biography (source), he participates in community activities such as coaching young golfers and supporting youth organizations. He focuses on policies intended to make California more affordable, safe, and vibrant by supporting education initiatives, public safety efforts, essential services (source), water storage improvements, energy reliability enhancements (source), and youth career preparation programs. Wallis also participates in the Problem Solvers Caucus to emphasize bipartisan cooperation (source).

The introduction of AB 2063 reflects ongoing efforts by some legislators to provide more accessible information about the influences shaping proposed laws.
