Many legislative observers nicknamed 2018 as the “Year of the #MeToo Movement,” as state houses across the country (including California) introduced and enacted a wave of state laws designed to combat sexual harassment in the workplace. However, if the early weeks of this year are any indication, this trend of legislative activity will continue well into 2019 and beyond.

In California, a pair of proposals that were vetoed by Governor Jerry Brown in 2018 have already been re-introduced, illustrating that newly-sworn-in Governor Gavin Newsom will be put to an early test on #MeToo-inspired legislation.
