Newsom’s announcement is the latest development in a feud between state Democrats and a conservative school board.
“Cancel culture has gone too far in Temecula: radicalized zealots on the school board rejected a textbook used by hundreds of thousands of students and now children will begin the school year without the tools they need to learn,” Newsom said in a statement.Privately, Newsom aides have been working with state Superintendent Tony Thurmond to pass legislation that was recently amended to target the school district.
The administration hopes to charge the district for the books after getting the bill through the Legislature — an urgency measure would take effect immediately after being signed. The bill has already encountered opposition from the California School Boards Association, which takes issue with the financial penalties, its perceived infringement on local school governance and other provisions. But the path to passage became clearer Thursday, as state Senate President pro Tempore Toni Atkins and Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas came out in support.
