“It’s no coincidence that California’s budget deficit and Gavin Newsom’s disapproval numbers hit an all-time high on the same day.”
SACRAMENTO – Today, Assembly Republican Leader James Gallagher (Yuba City) issued the following statement on the Legislative Analyst’s report showing that Democrats’ fiscal mismanagement has created a $68 billion budget deficit:
“It’s no coincidence that California’s budget deficit and Gavin Newsom’s disapproval numbers hit an all-time high on the same day. Both are the result of a checked-out governor who’s more interested in chasing the national spotlight than the business of running a state.
“In the last five years, Newsom and legislative Democrats have increased spending by by more than 60%. It’s flat-out unsustainable.
“In spite of this outrageous spending, Californians’ quality of life has collapsed. No wonder people are moving to Florida.”
