Gavin Newsom keeps losing COVID cases in California courts.



It has been a busy week on the campaign trail visiting voters. Here is a link to contribute to my campaign [[link removed]], but I wanted to take a moment to let you know what is going on in California courts.

For the third time in a week, California courts have ruled against the government on important COVID cases.

First, we saw the California court of appeals reverse over $300,000 in sanctions against the pastor of Calvary Chapel San Jose who refused to shut down his church during COVID. The court ruled that the government never had the authority to shut down churches and thus the courts had no authority to sanction the pastor for refusing to shut down.

Second, we saw an Orange County Superior Court rule that a business owner's case against the state is allowed to proceed. The business is suing the governor under California law for damages suffered as a result of the governor shutting down his “non-essential” business to help slow the virus.

Today we saw a Los Angeles County Superior Court rule that a complaint against the government for selective prosecution is allowed to continue. The City of Burbank went after Tinhorn Flats shutting off its power and building a wall around the business. Tin Horn Flats countersued the city and the governor claiming that it was being targeted because they were vocal in opposing the governor’s shutdown orders. They argued that the city was selectively enforcing its laws by not shutting off the power of other businesses that were ordered to shut down who were remaining open but who might not have been as vocal.

While I was not the attorney of record on any of these cases, I have been following these cases and others like them very carefully. It is important to remember that We The People are the government and we give limited authority to our elected officials to govern us. When our elected officials overstep their constitutional authority, courts must stop them.

Over the last two years, I have been on the frontlines fighting against the unconstitutional COVID mandates. I have been involved in over 30 COVID lawsuits at the Federal, State, and local level. Under the guise of COVID emergency powers, unelected bureaucrats have attempted to dismantle our constitutional framework of government by taking our power to self-govern our lives and putting it in their hands where they were dictating who was essential and who was not. It is because of all the work that I did in fighting the unconstitutional COVID mandates that I decided that I needed to take my fight for your constitutional rights from the courthouse to the U.S. Capitol.

Courts are not quick and freedom is not free.

Mark Meuser

Your candidate for U.S. Senate for California
