'I would caution him from doing that.” Gov. Gavin Newsom responded to Texas leader Greg Abbott over his comments regarding California’s gun control efforts.
"Gov. Abbott just namechecked the state of California," Newsom said."I would caution him from doing that. Particularly, and you just go to the CDC website and look at that gun murder rate, in 2020, it was 67% higher than the state of California in 2020."
"We're here resolved, focused, energetically on moving well over a dozen bills forward, getting them to my desk, where I will enthusiastically be signing these bills by the end of next month," Newsom said. The state already requires strict waiting periods for gun purchases, background checks for buying both guns and ammunition, and limits assault-style weapons and ammunition magazines that hold more than 10 bullets.
Benitez and Nelson both declined comment through spokesmen. Abbott’s office did not immediately comment.
