Hi John,

I've just published a new blog post:
[link removed] Newsom's "Tent
Pole"

The other day, Newsom boasted California is a "tent pole" of the
American economy. It's an odd claim for a state with the highest
unemployment and a $73 billion deficit. It's also an odd choice of
words: when Californians think of tents, economic prosperity isn't
exactly what comes to mind.

On that note, the audit of state homelessness spending is out. The
results are infuriating: "California spent $24 billion to tackle
homelessness over the past five years but didn't consistently track
whether the huge outlay of public money actually improved the
situation."

I first asked for the audit in 2020 and was one vote away from getting
it approved when Newsom killed it, pressuring three legislators to
"abstain." Incredibly, the Committee Chair actually tried to cancel
the vote
as
Newsom's aides eyed him from the witness table.

But last year, the audit was finally approved at the request of Asm.
Josh Hoover. Now we know why Newsom desperately didn't want it: the
findings are even worse than I expected. The state simply "stopped
tracking spending on programs and whether programs were working."

Meanwhile, yesterday I convened my Subcommittee for a hearing on
stopping Biden's anti-Independent Contractor rule, which will destroy
millions of jobs. The hearing produced a stunning admission
from the
Democrats' chosen witness, who was there to toe Biden's line.

I asked if she supported forcing independent workers to become employees
"

**against their will**." She replied, "absolutely." As the head of
Fight For Freelancers put it, "No matter how many times I watch this
clip, I still can't believe the truth came out so clearly today. In
broad daylight."

Finally, the Supermajority's Senate and Assembly leader have joined
Newsom in opposing the End Prop. 47 initiative. It's a good thing
their opinion doesn't matter. Californians have taken matters into our
own hands.
