 CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE—

 Assembly Bill

No. 2632

Introduced by Assembly Member Hoover

February 20, 2026

 An act to add Section 20045 to the Business and Professions Code, relating to franchises. An act to add Article 4 (commencing with Section 33060) to Chapter 1 of Part 20 of Division 2 of Title 2 of the Education Code, relating to education and workforce development.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 2632, as amended, Hoover.
 California Franchise Relations Act: fees for a stated purpose. Education and workforce development: statewide framework.

Existing law establishes a system of elementary and secondary education in this state, under which school districts, county offices of education, charter schools, and state special schools provide instruction to pupils in kindergarten and grades 1 to 12, inclusive, at schoolsites throughout the state.

Existing law establishes the University of California, under the administration of the Regents of the University of California, the California State University, under the administration of the Trustees of the California State University, and the California Community Colleges, under the administration of the Board of Governors of the California Community
 Colleges, as the public segments of postsecondary education in the state.

This bill, on or before July 1, 2028, would require the State Board of Education, in partnership with the State Department of Education, to establish a formal framework, to be known as the Vision for California Education, to serve as the primary guiding framework for education policy across the state’s elementary, secondary, and public postsecondary educational systems. The bill would require the vision to achieve specified goals, including, among other goals, establishing clear pathways that connect the state’s elementary, secondary, and public postsecondary educational systems and the workforce, as provided. The bill further would require the state board, on or before January 1, 2030, and every 2 years thereafter, to report to the Legislature on the progress made toward achieving the
 vision’s goals.

Existing law, the California Franchise Relations Act, sets forth certain requirements related to franchises between a franchisor, subfranchisor, and franchisee. For these purposes, the act defines a “franchise fee” as any fee or charge that a franchisee or subfranchisor is required to pay or agrees to pay for the right to enter into a business under a franchise agreement, as specified, but excludes prescribed purchases and payments from that definition. Existing law provides that the act applies to any franchise when either the franchisee is domiciled in this state, or the franchised business is or has been operated in this state.

This bill would prohibit a franchisor from using any fee collected from a franchisee for a stated purpose, as specified, for anything other than the stated purpose and would require that such fees collected be segregated
 from the franchisor’s funds at all times. The bill would prohibit the amount allocated to administrative expenses or overhead from exceeding 10% of the amount collected for a fee for a stated purpose unless the franchisor discloses the exact amount or percentage to be allocated to administration or overhead, as prescribed. The bill would also require a franchisor to provide franchisees with an annual detailed accounting as to the amounts collected and their use and application for any fees for a stated purpose.
