California Legislators Violate Our Constitutional Rights
By Ronald L. Trowbridge
Our constitutional rights are being violated—always in the name of a social good, of course. I’ll focus on four California matters, one of them still under consideration: 1) Gov. Gavin Newsom as monarch; 2) the AB-5 gig law; 3) the Tenants’ Opportunity Purchase Agreement (TOPA); and 4) Measure C.
Gov. Newsom as Monarch
In multiple ways Gov. Newsom has become a monarch -- a benevolent monarch, but a monarch nonetheless. I am amazed at how many aspects of that document the governor has violated. He would of course argue that his acts are for the public good, but he has tossed the Constitution out the window.
For example, Article 1, Section 8, says that Congress alone has the authority “to regulate commerce with foreign nations and among the several states.†Yet Gov. Newsom has unilaterally shut down varieties of commerce and restricted travel, even excursions from one’s home. Much of this commerce becomes interstate.
