Seriously- Why would he veto this?
Not in full control?
Or he’s trying to win political points for a run for president?
Which seems more logical?
Regardless, THANK YOU GOD!

“To the Members of the California State Assembly:
“I am returning Assembly Bill 957 without my signature.
This legislation would require a court, when determining the best interests of a child in a child custody or visitation proceeding, to consider, among other comprehensive factors, a parent's affirmation of the child's gender identity or gender expression.
I appreciate the passion and values that led the author to introduce this bill. I share a deep commitment to advancing the rights of transgender Californians, an effort that has guided my decisions through many decades in public office.
That said, I urge caution when the Executive and Legislative branches of state government attempt to dictate - in prescriptive terms that single out one characteristic - legal standards for the Judicial branch to apply. Other-minded elected officials, in California and other states, could very well use this strategy to diminish the civil rights of vulnerable communities.
Moreover, a court, under existing law, is required to consider a child's health, safety, and welfare when determining the best interests of a child in these proceedings, including the parent's affirmation of the child's gender identity.”
As a Californian, I definitely consider it a significant event. Newsom clearly did the right thing here, for whatever reason. The Assembly needs some scrutiny though.
It appears as though Newsom is instructing his judicial lieutenants to accomplish their intent with a law that is already booked.
"Moreover, a court, under existing law, is required to consider a child's health, safety, and welfare when determining the best interests of a child in these proceedings, including the parent's affirmation of the child's gender identity.”
No Californian would ever vote for him for President. We see the truth when we go to the gas station and see $6.50 a gallon. Or go to the grocery store where every item costs more. The average family is barely making it
"I’m surprised he vetoed this….

he's running for president, this confirms it. He needed to NOT do this to have a chance.
Newsom 2024
Exactly. He's gonna run for president.
😉🙂
Exactly…
When you realize this, it’s not shocking at all
I did not see this coming. Q said to track events from Sept 21-25. I think this may count as an event😄!

In the Mighty name of Jesus we pray, "Destroy Oh Lord and divide their tongues" Psalm 55:9🙏🙏🙏

Yeah, that would be used against him in a presidential run. He couldn't sign it.
