During a recent bill-signing spree, California Gov. Gavin Newsom approved everything from abortion pills in universities to decriminalizing dining on roadkill.
Newsom passed several measures that never made it past the desk of his predecessor, former Gov. Jerry Brown and issued veto messages for more than 100 others.
Affordable Housing Bill Vetoed
Among the bills that Newsom vetoed was SB-5, which would have allowed counties and cities to use $2 billion a year from property tax revenues to pay for affordable housing projects.
