Governor Newsom terminates states of emergency – 3.24.26

SACRAMENTO – Governor Gavin Newsom today signed a proclamation terminating 18 open states of emergency for various prior fires and storms, the counties that remained under a drought state of emergency, and other incidents for which a proclaimed state of emergency is no longer necessary to facilitate response and recovery efforts.

In consultation with local governments, this action reflects that the proclamations are no longer needed.
