The California Supreme Court declined to review a petition to remove Gov. Gavin Newson’s emergency powers as many counties remain under a state of emergency.

Assemblymembers James Gallagher and Kevin Kiley filed the petition seeking to remove the governor’s executive power that allows him to bypass the legislative branch. The petition was denied by the court without explanation.
