California Gov. Gavin Newsom slammed the Republican controlled Congress following the shooting at a mall in Allen, Texas killed on Saturday afternoon.
“This is freedom?? To be shot at a mall? Shot at school? Shot at church? Shot at the movies?” the Democrat governor wrote in a Twitter post. “We have become a nation that is more focused on the right to kill than the right to live.”
In September 2022, Newsom signed into law a number of bills aimed at expanding access to abortion in the state, vowing to keep California a “safe haven” for those wanting to take the lives of the unborn.
From Fox News:
The two term governor has previously called out Republicans for inaction on the issue of gun control, doubling down on the need for federal gun control reform. "This is not what the American people want," Gov. Newsom continued. An hour following the governors initial post, he slammed Texas Governor Greg Abbott for cutting mental health funding. "This is your reminder that @GregAbbott_TX cut $211 million in mental health funding," Newsom wrote.
