California AB23 proposes to reduce the cost of living by reforming regulations and suspending state taxes and fees on gasoline and utilities.

California AB23, known as the Cost of Living Reduction Act of 2025, aims to lower the cost of living by reforming regulations and suspending state taxes and fees on gasoline and utilities. The Public Utilities Commission is required to post a dashboard comparing California's energy prices to the national average and identify contributing taxes, fees, regulations, and policies. If California's average energy prices exceed the national average by more than 10%, the commission must suspend certain fees and taxes.
