California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has vowed to continue pressing for legislation that would provide health insurance to the uninsured in California.
The health care bill had been closely watched across the United States because of California's size and the rising anxiety among Americans about the escalating cost and lack of availability of affordable health insurance.
Nearly 47 million Americans, or 16 percent of the population, were without health insurance in 2005.
Health care has become a major issue in the presidential campaign, with leading candidates acknowledging that changes are needed, and some advocating plans to expand coverage.
