As of September 2026: Opposes final version of AB 1349; urged Newsom to veto

California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a law banning the sale of concert and sports tickets that sellers don't actually own, a practice known as speculative ticketing or 'ghost tickets.' The law, Assembly Bill 1349, also prohibits using software to bypass venue limits and requires resale platforms to take reasonable steps to prevent such listings.
