Apparently Sacramento wants you to have a Happy Thanksgiving and a Merry Christmas. As we head into 2026, a whole slate of anti–Second Amendment bills has died off, while a pro-2A CCW bill, AB 1092, is still alive. Kevin Small and CRPA Legislative Director Rick Travis break down why these bad bills were stopped, how California’s budget mess and your advocacy helped, and what AB 1092 would do by extending CCW license durations from 2 years to 3, then 4 years—cutting costs, easing backlogs, and improving access. They also look ahead to CRPA’s 2026 strategy, including expanded Capitol Days and the WAVE women’s program.
