Newsom urged to halt progressives' 'scheming' to derail popular anti-crime initiative
Fox News
California's U.S. House Republicans are urging Gov. Newsom and state Dems to halt their 'cynical' efforts at legislative end-runs to thwart a popular bipartisan anti-crime ballot initiative.
But Newsom and Golden State Democrats oppose the initiative and are working to fast-track their own public safety bills pertaining to curbing criminal retail theft without reforming Prop. 47. Some Democrats plan to introduce inoperability clauses into the set of proposed public safety bills to prevent them from going into effect if voters approve the Prop 47 reforms. They contend that it's a way to ensure there aren't any inconsistencies in the law. Jamie Joseph is a writer who covers politics. She leads Fox News Digital coverage of the Senate.
"This measure will repeal the most problematic provisions of Proposition 47 from 2014. It is a vitally needed policy correction to address the growing problems of retail theft, open-air drug markets, and homelessness in our state," Kiley wrote in a letter to Newsom on Tuesday.
