After the U.S. Supreme Court declined to block a Texas state law that bans most abortions there, Gov. Gavin Newsom said he’ll push for a new California law that will bar the manufacture and sale of assault rifles in the state.
“I am outraged by yesterday’s U.S. Supreme Court decision allowing Texas’ ban on most abortion services to remain in place, and largely endorsing Texas’ scheme to insulate its law from the fundamental protections of Roe v. Wade,” Newsom said in a statement Saturday night.
The California anti-gun law, Newsom said, would be modeled on the Texas law that makes abortions illegal after six weeks of pregnancy and allows private citizens to sue doctors or anyone who helps a woman get an abortion to enforce it. Newsom said he was directing his staff to work with the state Legislature and Atty. Gen. Rob Bonta on a new law that would allow private citizens to sue manufacturers or distributors of assault weapons.“If the most efficient way to keep these devastating weapons off our streets is to add the threat of private lawsuits, we should do just that,” Newsom said in the statement.
Only law abiding citizens will follow all the criminals will not… pure genius…
Trying to get rid of the tax base as fast as he can they’re already freaked out by the crime surge…
Hmmm. Finally something done smart.
And I hope he secedes, if their lawlessness can be used to deny women the right to control their bodies, it should certainly be used to protect Californians from gun nuts!
Imma need GavinNewsom to run for President!
Followed by: 'Actually, when we think about it, we can't allow this. Hey, history shows the court isn't perfect. Anywhos back to being political hacks. Next up Missouri's 'Get Your Black Asses Out of That Voting Booth' law. Uh... Constitutional. Next!'
Now that's good governing! Other states need to follow this example!
Fantastic
Gas is 2.66 a gallon at my Walmart, thanks President Biden
Roe will be overturned next summer via Mississippi case SCOTUS ultimately shuts down the SB8 enforcement mechanism after a year of forced births CA law having never left the courts, shut down as well Texas will then just pass an outright abortion ban All part of the plan
This doesn’t go far enough IMO: Ban the gop from operating in the State of California on the basis that they are a terrorist, racist and anti-Democratic organization.
I’m so glad Newsom is working to better California rather than wasting his time on stupid press releases that won’t go anywhere.
The Supreme Court will be forced to smell the “stench” of their own politicization.
Newsom to Texas Republicans:
Newsom is a rockstar!
It’s time to arm yourself. Newson and the Democrats only want to control you. They are promoting chaos and fear in the streets. Only you can protect yourselves, your family and your property in their lawless states/cities.
Guns don't kill people~
WTF? 'Revenge Politics'? The gun manufactures should sue HIM!🤔🤢🤢🤢How Reprehensible!
Coat hanger self harm is as troubling as ghost guns
What a great idea. Let the SC rule against a person’s rights in healthcare and for a person’s rights to keep banned weapons. The stench from this court is palpable.
GOOD FOR HIM!!!!!
Brilliant! GavinNewsom protecting our children!
