California Gov. Gavin Newsom often touts California's leadership on the national stage
California Gov. Gavin Newsom again seized the national spotlight this year as he signed some of the most ambitious laws in the country to raise worker wages and to force companies to disclose a wide range of climate emissions, efforts that further cement the state's — and the governor's — status as a leader on a host of liberal causes.
“They're doing this because, quite honestly, this economy has failed them.” Newsom also vetoed a bill that would have protected domestic workers who get injured or sick on the job and a proposal to save driver jobs while automated semi-trucks are tested for their safety on public roads. In recent years, Californians have had to cope with wildfires, intense heat waves, and violent winds and rain.
