Former Rep. Doug Ose, R-Calif., criticized a Newsom proposal requesting $25 million in additional funding to beef up agencies for potential legal battles with the Trump administration.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom's latest efforts to 'Trump-proof' his state are being slammed as a 'total waste' by some Republicans, particularly as he eyes the chance to sign a bill including $25 million in additional funding for potential legal fights with the incoming administration. 'I wish my elected leaders would spend their time solving problems rather than creating more problems,' former California Rep.
The majority Democratic state legislature is expected to introduce such proposed legislation in the coming weeks. If approved, California's Justice Department and state agencies would receive extra funding for court battles regarding areas like reproductive rights, environmental protection and immigration, according to Reuters. Officials anticipate the legislation will be signed into law before Inauguration Day on Jan. 20.
Most people in California are struggling so hard and so desperately just to keep their heads above water. They don't have time to confront the governor on this kind of foolishness. This is just talk. This is just more of the same from Newsom,' he critiqued. 'He said he'd enforce the death penalty. He immediately said no. He said he'd finish high speed rail. Now we're 100 billion in and we're nowhere near completion. He said he'd fix K-12. It's a total failure.
