Legislative Round-Up: Navigating California’s Public Utility Landscape (Hybrid MCLE Event)

California’s 2026 legislative session has produced significant new developments for the state’s public utilities—and several of the most consequential utility issues remain unresolved. Join the Conference of California Public Utility Counsel (CCPUC) for our 2026 Public Utility Legislative Round-Up in Sacramento.

This MCLE event will provide a comprehensive look at key public utility bills enacted at the close of the 2025–2026 session. Panelists will also discuss practical strategies for participating in the state legislative process—including how and when attorneys can effectively work with key players in the legislative process during bill drafting, stakeholder meetings, and amendment negotiations. Whether you represent regulated utilities, state agencies, or ratepayer organizations, this program will equip you with both the legal updates and the advocacy tools needed for the year ahead.

The In-Person Welcome Reception will be 5:00 pm - 5:30 pm

The MCLE will begin promptly at 5:30

In-person attendees will also have the opportunity to network with colleagues before and after the program, with light bites and refreshments provided.

Registration Fees:

Please note that in-person attendance is limited and registrations will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. We encourage you to register early and join us for a candid and informative conversation with one of the CPUC's newest leaders.
