California Governor Gavin Newsom on Saturday vetoed a bill that would have paid unemployment benefits to striking workers, and had drawn strong support from labor unions and from his fellow Democrats in the state legislature.

Fuck you, Newsome. I think pay for striking workers would be overwhelmingly popular with voters. I’m voting against this turkey next chance I get.

      Don’t ask them that. That means they actually have to pay out.

        It’s like the union bosses are living a stereotype of a certain group of people who horde gold shekels.
