CA: Newsom Plan Draws More Law Enforcement Opposition

posted on March 23, 2016

More California law enforcement officers are speaking out against Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom’s rabidly anti-gun proposed ballot initiatives.

Last week we informed you that the California State Sheriff’s Association spoke out against the restrictive package, saying, “The focus of efforts to reduce gun violence in this state should be on those responsible for that violence, not those that have no intent to do harm.” Now the California Fish and Game Wardens Association (CFGWA) has officially come out against Newsom’s so-called “Safety For All" Act. 

“The CFGWA strongly opposes the ostensibly mis-named ‘Safety for All’ Act ballot initiative of 2016,” the group wrote in a statement. “The stated goals of the act to ‘keep our communities safe’ and ‘end gun violence’ are of critical concern to all CA law enforcement agencies and officers. However, the proposed changes in the act will have little bearing on the criminals who commit these atrocities in our great state.”
