While announcing the 2023/2024 budget proposal, California Gov. Gavin Newsom said that the state will launch a digital ID in “a matter of months,” and that the state will “do it like no other state has done it.”

California has been working on a digital ID, with the state’s DMV receiving permission to test a Digital ID back in 2021.
