Newsom Lied About Salary Cut

Governor Gavin Newsom of California has garnered his full monthly salary despite asking state workers in May to take a pay cut to ease the state’s burden in fighting the coronavirus pandemic.
While elected state officials are exempt from such pay cuts, Newsom pledged that he would voluntarily slash his salary when asked state workers to make the same sacrifice.

But a Sacramento Bee Thursday report revealed that Newsom has continued to draw his full monthly salary of $17,479.

A Newsom office spokesperson blamed the issue on an “administrative error.”

Newsom also received a 3.7 million dollar home as a tax free gift from his business partner.

This governor thing really can pay well.
