NEW YORK – As time runs out for California Governor Gavin Newsom to act on legislation that would limit the use of solitary confinement in the state, a diocese has reignited a push for faith-based organisations to sign a letter urging him to make the measure law.
Despite passing the California State Assembly and Senate last September, Assembly member Chris Holden decided to keep AB 280 pending in the legislature to prevent a potential Newsom veto and to allow negotiations to continue with the governor, who had already vetoed a prior version.
