In recent weeks Newsom has vetoed -

And last year he vetoed a bill that would have banned solitary confinement lasting longer than 15 days - something that the UN considers torture.

    I missed that one.

    Lawmakers can override a governor’s veto with a two-thirds vote, but they have not tried in decades.

    . . .the governor vetoed Wiener’s Senate Bill 90, which caps the cost of insulin at $35 per month. The bill had previously passed the Assembly 79-0 and passed the Senate on 39-0.

    This is perfect football-lucy Democrat behavior, where they get to be on record for supporting something but still make sure it never happens. A supermajority where nothing can happen because the governorship is inevitably a spot to put someone who wants to run for President. The most Blue MAGA state in the country.
