In recent weeks Newsom has vetoed -
-
A union-supported bill that would have banned driverless testing of autonomous trucks
-
A bill banning caste discrimination
And last year he vetoed a bill that would have banned solitary confinement lasting longer than 15 days - something that the UN considers torture.
He also vetoed $35 price caps for Insulin. What a guy.
I missed that one.
This is perfect Democrat behavior, where they get to be on record for supporting something but still make sure it never happens. A supermajority where nothing can happen because the governorship is inevitably a spot to put someone who wants to run for President. The most Blue MAGA state in the country.
Why is the governor even able to veto something that passed with a veto-proof majority? Sorry pal you already lost.

Perhaps the votes only passed that hard because the congress was confident he would veto it anyway. If the rules changed, so would the votes, probably. Or maybe it would have not even made it to a vote.
also vetoed decriminalizing psilocybin
Just when I was starting to come around to him. Liberals are a curse
