Gavin Newsom Pulling CARE Court Funds

California taxpayers are funding Kamala Harris’ multi‑city book‑tour security, with dozens of CHP officers escorting her in the U.S. and abroad but the state won’t say how much it costs or how long it will continue.  Critics argue the secrecy raises concerns about using public resources for a private, money‑making tour. 

Gov. Gavin Newsom warned he may pull state funding from 10 “underperforming” counties including Fresno, LA, San Francisco, Kern, and Riverside for failing to meet benchmarks under his CARE Court mental‑health and homelessness program.  He blasted the counties for filing too few treatment petitions and said he’ll redirect money to better‑performing regions, while local officials pushed back, arguing low petition numbers don’t reflect failure and that counties need more funding, not threats to improve services.
