Doesn’t Gavin Newsom have some bigger issues to deal with in California right now?
The Washington Free Beacon reports:
California Governor Mandates Ethnic Studies Courses for University StudentsCalifornia governor Gavin Newsom (D.) signed a bill Monday mandating students in the California State University system take at least one course in ethnic studies despite concerns from the system’s board of trustees and some professors.The bill overrides requirements the California State University board of trustees implemented in July.

The door is opened to that kind of change.”
