It is likely to pass within days and go the the governor’s desk where it is expected to be signed into law.

The “trial edition adult at 18, more features unlocked with time” adulthood is ridiculous. Pick one age for everything and stick with it. Entering into a binding contract, buying booze, joining the military, buying smokes, getting married, buying handguns, voting. 18? 21? Pick one.

Alex Padilla, let’ raise the voting at to 21 also and the age to bank loan and the age to join the Army needs to be 21 too since 18 year olds are too mentally immature to make good decisions.
