Rep. David Valadao, a House Republican running for re-election in a newly-drawn blue district in California, slammed Gov. Gavin Newsom on "America's Newsroom" Thursday for blaming the GOP for the state's energy shortages despite Democrats controlling every aspect of state government.
REP. DAVID VALADAO: The problem with Gavin Newsom right now, when you see what he's doing, he's literally suing the federal government to prevent more energy production from the state of California. … And my communities are running out of water… He's not helping, he's actually getting in the way and suing and preventing us from actually being able to get some sort of policies done that could be beneficial to our communities. And for him to sit there and focus on Republicans, when Democrats have controlled every statewide elected office and have supermajorities in both the Assembly and the Senate, and still find some way to blame the people who are in the minority, is asinine.
