Assembly approves bill extending short‑term rental data access to tribes

California State Assembly · August 20, 2026

Summary

SB 594, presented by Assemblymember Wallace on behalf of Senator Padilla, would allow federally recognized tribes access to short‑term rental facilitator data to aid tax administration; the Assembly passed the bill (I 63, no 0).

Assemblymember Wallace presented SB 594 on the Assembly floor, explaining the measure would extend to federally recognized tribes the same access to short‑term rental facilitator information that cities and counties receive. Wallace said tribes "face greater difficulty collecting revenue that supports essential services" without the data and urged support for the bipartisan bill.

Debate concluded and the clerk recorded the vote: "I 63, no 0." The measure passed and will proceed according to the Assembly's referral and enrollment procedures. Sponsors characterized the bill as a technical but consequential extension of existing tax‑administration authority.
