Governor Newsom vetoes bill for Black family property reparations in California.

California Governor Gavin Newsom vetoed a bill intended to assist Black families in reclaiming or receiving compensation for property taken by the government through discriminatory practices. The bill aimed to establish a claims process for affected families. Newsom's decision undermines a broader reparations package supported by the California Legislative Black Caucus, which also sought to address historical racial injustices and propose formal apologies for slavery.
