The California Privacy Rights Act of 2020, approved by the voters as Proposition 24 at the November 3, 2020, statewide general election, amended, added to, and reenacted the CCPA.

This bill would declare that its provisions further the purposes and intent of the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020.
