CA SB1308

Prohibits California Community Colleges, California State University, and local educational agencies from purchasing non-domestic agricultural food products unless the non-domestic product is more than 25% cheaper, superior in quality, or unavailable domestically in sufficient quantities.

Requests the University of California voluntarily adopt the same non-domestic agricultural product purchasing restrictions.

Modifies existing law for school districts to prioritize California-grown products over domestically-grown products from outside California when prices are comparable and quality is equal.

Becomes operative January 1, 2024, and does not apply to agricultural products purchased through the United States Department of Agriculture or expand/limit California's World Trade Organization obligations.
