Governor Newsom issues statement on preserving ban on large-capacity gun magazines

Los Angeles, California – California took a major step forward in correcting the damage from 50 years of neglect to the state’s mental health system with the passage of Proposition 1. This historic measure — a signature priority of Governor Gavin Newsom — adds rocket fuel to California’s overhaul of the state’s behavioral health systems. It provides a full range of mental health and substance abuse care, with new accountability metrics to ensure local governments deliver for their communities.

“When the executive branch disagrees with a court ruling, the answer isn’t to ignore it — it’s to appeal to a higher court.

We did that. We won. That’s how law and order works.”
