Gov. Gavin Newsom has vetoed a bill by a state senator from San Francisco that sought to strip tax-exempt status from any nonprofits in California that participated in or incited insurrection like the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.
SAN FRANCISCO -- Gov. Gavin Newsom has vetoed a bill by a state senator from San Francisco that sought to strip tax-exempt status from any nonprofits in California that participated in or incited insurrection like the attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
The attack on the Capitol last year by supporters of former President Donald Trump led to the deaths of five people and injured many others while Congress was certifying the victory of President Joe Biden over Trump in the November 2020 election. The language in SB 834 said the offending nonprofits would be identified as such by the state attorney general, but the veto message sent by Newsom late Thursday rejected that proposal.
In response to the veto by Newsom, Wiener said Friday that he must"respectfully disagree" with the governor's decision.
