A state in crisis, Leader Jones responds to sham state of the state from Newsom

Today, Senate Minority Leader Brian W. Jones (R-San Diego) issued the following statement in reaction to Governor Newsom’s “Reflection on the 2025 State of the State:”

“This isn’t leadership and that video wasn’t a state of the state address. It was political theater aimed to distract the public from the ongoing failures of a governor with one foot out the door. Crime, homelessness and cost of living continue to ravage our communities and all Newsom can do is point the finger with hollow, inflammatory soundbites. Republicans in California are focused on California, on restoring our state’s prosperity and positioning us for 175 more years of success.”
