Unfortunately, that isn't true. Every year since 1990 or so has seen a net domestic migration out of California (here are the numbers; you can get them from the source at the U.S. Census web site but it requires more poking around and search queries as near as I can tell).

Since 1990 the entire population growth of California has been from internal reproduction, legal foreign immigration, and illegal foreign immigration.
