To my fellow Californians:

 

I believe that what Gavin Newsom has done to our state is unconstitutional and unlawful.

The original point of the lockdown as we all remember back in March was to “slow the spread” and to stay home so that the hospitals would not be overwhelmed with Covid patients.  I was supposed to be 15 days..

Now it is 7 months later and the state is still in some form of lockdown despite pleas from President Trump in Mid -May to reopen the economy and schools. States like Florida and Arizona have heeded the President’s advice and are beginning to thrive once again.

These Emergency Powers by mostly Democrat governors are being used and abused. The Supreme Court of Michigan recently struck down Gov. Whitmer judging that she could no longer rule without end.  We must do the same here in California.

Newsom and his merry band of Dems changed the goal posts on us numerous times. Currently, hospitalizations and mortality are not a part of the new color coded metric…simply cases.  And as we all know by now, 99% of the population recovers (as did I at age 70) from this virus.  Schools and businesses, sporting events, weddings, churches, are all still on full or part lockdowns and this needs to end.

We the people are supposed to be in charge.  Governor Newsom wants to impose his rule over us claiming that  it is for our own good. Yet, it is for us to make that decision, not him.
