A bill to allow Amsterdam-style cannabis cafes in California has been vetoed by Gov. Gavin Newsom, according to Assemblymember Matt Haney, who authored the legislation.
Newsom, we get it - you want to run for president. But don’t fuck up my state to do it.
You’ve done ok in CA when you’ve kept your mouth shut and followed in Brown’s footsteps, but this latest bullshit display of throwing widely popular progressive initiatives (this one passed 66 to 9) under the bus is a slap in the face to all Californians, proving yet again that you’re an empty neo-liberal suit playing progressive to pander to the public.
California is not your billboard for a future presidential run. Do your damn job and stop using your veto pen to try to appeal to voters who aren’t even your constituents yet.
I find it interesting how people who were voted in can just completely go against their voter’s wishes and nobody can do anything about it until their term is up (at least in a timely fashion, as far as I know). That really sucks
Seems pretty broken doesn’t it? Makes me wonder what they are there for in the first place if it’s not to represent us. There’s gotta be a better way, especially with all the technology we have nowadays.
