California Governor Gavin Newsom on Saturday vetoed a bill that would have paid unemployment benefits to striking workers, and had drawn strong support from labor unions and from his fellow Democrats in the state legislature.

Fuck you, Newsome. I think pay for striking workers would be overwhelmingly popular with voters. I’m voting against this turkey next chance I get.

    If I strike, I get strike pay from my union day one of the strike. The government should not be paying for striking members.
