California Gov. Gavin Newsom Says His Anti-Republican Ads Are Retribution for Recall Efforts
The 25-minute interview with Newsom followed the governor officially signing into legislation the Community Assistant, Recovery and Empowerment act, which he crafted to address the homeless issue in California. The bill will provide court-ordered care to the unhoused with severe mental disorders.
"We see this manifested in California like no other state," Newsom said."It's not unique to California, it's just worse here. It's an important issue that we haven't been able to address." "There's sectors of our economy where workers don't have a voice, where they don't have a choice, where their health and safety are often compromised," Newsom said."A disproportionate number of women and minorities work in that sector. And it's not just all teenagers, working for a few hours a week to make their way up, you have moms, people who work 20 years in the fast-food industry. And they're stuck.
