Republican Congressman Vince Fong of Bakersfield weighs in on Governor Gavin Newsom’s policies after the Democrat’s visit to Kern County. Newsom made a stop in Kern on Monday to tout his California Jobs First Economic Blueprint, but Fong says the governor’s rebranding tour ignores the fact that it’s his own policies that have damaged and harmed the region. Fong says Newsom has actively restricted needed energy production, hurt the construction of energy pipelines and refinery infrastructure, prevented the flow of vital water supplies, and crushed our supply chain with mandates on trucking, rail and warehousing. He says Newsom should stop lecturing and demonizing the region, and start listening instead.
