California is considering new legislation that would allow private citizens to enforce the state’s ban on assault weapons and “ghost guns” — home-assembled, unregulated firearms. The measure is modeled after Texas’s abortion ban. This is Governor Gavin Newsom.
Gov. Gavin Newsom: “If Texas can use a law to ban a woman’s right to choose and to put her health at risk, we will use that same law to save lives and improve the health and safety of the people in the state of California. … There is no principled way the U.S. Supreme Court can not uphold this California law — none, period, full stop. It is quite literally modeled after the law they just upheld in Texas.”
