Political commentators describe this outcome as advantageous for Gavin Newsom's political aspirations, allowing him to blame the legislature for the failure to pass these bills. In the eyes of the political elite this keeps Newsoms hands clean with racist whites who will never support any meaningful redress for the sin of slavery.
But as far as I'm concerned Newsoms flip flop is political poison for Black voters.
