“We’re going to control the controllable, the things we have control of,” Gov. Gavin Newsom said during an event at the state Capitol. “California leads this national conversation. When California moves, other states move in the same direction.”

Gov. Gavin Newsom and top legislative Democrats pledged Wednesday to expedite more than a dozen bills aimed at reducing gun violence in California, promising to quickly pass laws that would allow private citizens to sue firearm manufacturers and distributors as well as require school officials to investigate credible threats of a mass shooting, following the violent attack Tuesday on a school in Texas.

The mass shooting of at least 19 children and two adults at a Uvalde, Texas, elementary school Tuesday prompted the leaders to take a harder look at how California could step up its efforts to address gun violence, they said. The bill passed the Senate on Tuesday on a 24-10 vote, and now heads to the Assembly. It was prompted by Newsom, who urged state lawmakers in December to use the U.S. Supreme Court’s refusal to block the Texas abortion law as the impetus to craft a similar bill in California that would target the gun industry.

Newsom and legislative leaders said they plan to pass and sign as many of the bills as possible before they break for a summer recess on July 1.Assembly Republican leader James Gallagher criticized state Democrats for the decision to speed up the review of bills in the wake of this week’s Texas attack.

It’s election time.. He’s all talk no action

I just remember the 2019 Saugus High School shooting and heard the same shit, to the point of knowing a friend of one of the victims being contacted by one of the politicians for a photo op without even saying how are they, never sat right after that

You suck on prevention. We need serious enforcement of existing laws and stronger ability to lock up the mentally ill that won’t get help on their own.

Don't let this fraud, failure & friend of the NWO take away your right to bear arms. If you enjoy stepping over homeless ppl, Draconian vaccine mandates, anti-family education, higher taxes, etc., then vote him in again & kiss your ss good bye. Cali's swirling down the toilet.
