Governor Gavin Newsom just signed a law that critics say will make it nearly impossible to expose billions in taxpayer fraud, and now a GOP lawmaker is taking him to court.
Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) signed a bill that expands the state's address-protection program to those working in immigration services. Critics of the bill says it impedes journalists and investigations, while supporters believe it protects workers from threats.
California lawmakers have advanced AB 2624, called the "Stop Nick Shirley Act," to block the public posting of information or images of "any designated immigration support services provider, employee, or volunteer, or other individuals residing at the same home address."
