California's governor has signed a bill limiting conservatorships that grant legal guardianship over individuals. He did so after after Britney Spears’ conservatorship case generated national attention amid her attempts to regain control over her finances.

“This measure is an important step to empower Californians with disabilities to get needed support in caring for themselves and their finances, while maintaining control over their lives to the greatest extent possible,” Newsom wrote in a signing statement, calling the new law a “transformative reform to protect self-determination for all Californians.”

Fans and advocates rallied online and in person to bring attention to Spears’ situation. Documentaries by The New York Times and Netflix on the effects of Spears’ conservatorship brought renewed spotlight to the case and the conservatorship process more broadly. She was a 26-year-old new mother who had several public mental health struggles during the height of her career in 2008, when her father sought the conservatorship, at first on a temporary basis.

Newsom relaxes refinery rules as California gas prices soarSACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday announced that oil refineries could start selling more polluting winter-blend gasoline ahead of schedule to ease soaring fuel prices, directly contradicting his own goals for reducing climate pollutants. Gas is going to start climbing again. The strategic reserve oil is about to end. It won’t matter once the US strategic oil spigot is closed prices for gas will skyrocket.

I imagine everyone who did vote for him has a bumper sticker that says, 'Honk your horn to thank me, I voted for Governor Newsom.'
