Ossoff: "You know I voted for the bill. You're not just lying about my record, you're lying about a young woman's death bc your campaign is in collapse. And you're campaign is in collapse bc the whole state knows that you're currently under federal investigation for illegal misuse of tax dollars."

It’s bad enough that Gavin Newsom opposes California’s Prop 40. But he also supports Prop 42, a billionaire-backed poison pill that would cancel out Prop 40 entirely and make it impossible to enact future wealth taxes. It’s clear whose side he’s on. Remember this in 2028.
