AB 1841 would make Native American Day, observed each year on the fourth Friday of September, a paid holiday for state employees once lawmakers provide funding for it.
"We have great remorse over the violent beginnings of this state [and] a strong commitment to forging a better path forward together," Newsom said.
What changes under AB 1841 is how the day is treated for state workers.
California courts already close for Native American Day. A 2021 law made it a judicial holiday beginning in 2022, replacing Columbus Day on the court calendar without adding another paid day off for court employees.
The measure was part of a package of laws Newsom signed Friday involving California tribes.
The package also included a bill extending the state's formal apology for historical violence and other harms against Native Americans to the Legislature and courts, along with a separate law making the Governor's Office of Tribal Affairs permanent.
