Gov. Gavin Newsom, in Washington to attend the National Governors Assn. meeting, visited Capitol Hill Monday to strategize with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and California’s congressional delegation.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Monday enters the office of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, one of many stops during his whirlwind, two-day trip to Washington.
The governor said one of his main priorities during his visit was to avoid stoking California’s escalating political feud with the president, including caustic flare-ups on Twitter between him and Trump over the administration’s U.S.-Mexico border policy, efforts to peel away strict environmental laws and attacks on the $77-billion high-speed rail system.
After Newsom called for scaling back the bullet train during his State of the State speech earlier this month, Trump demanded in a series of tweets that California return $3.5 billion in federal funding for the project. “Lincoln said you get farther with a drop of honey than a gallon of gall,” McClintock said. “That’s still good advice.”
