Newsom approves Uber ballot pause
California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a bill aimed at reducing inflated medical billing in personal injury cases related to car accidents. The legislation, SB 623, caps medical charges in lawsuits involving ride-share accidents and enhances background checks for Uber drivers, taking effect after January 1, 2027. The law results from negotiations between Uber and California trial attorneys, and it also addresses issues related to doctors and investors inflating medical bills through lien arrangements. Both Uber and lawyers had proposed competing ballot measures, but these were withdrawn following the legislation’s enactment.
