Legislator calls for investigation of Newsom's FOIA request
Assemblymember Carl DeMaio has requested an investigation into Governor Gavin Newsom's use of taxpayer-funded resources following Newsom's Freedom of Information Act request.
DeMaio sent a letter to the California Fair Political Practices Commission and Attorney General Rob Bonta asking for the investigation.
DeMaio stated that it may be illegal for Newsom to use public resources for personal or political matters and called for clarification and reimbursement to taxpayers.
The California Fair Political Practices Commission fined Newsom $31,500 for failing to file behested payment reports on time.
