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.

    I’m honestly surprised that Newsom did this veto. What a slap in the face to his constituent base!

      Why? The other comments list a bunch of perfectly good reasons for this veto
