    The Civil Rights Violator

    By Kevin Kiley – June 26, 2025 I’ve repeatedly warned Newsom that allowing men in women’s sports would have consequences. Sure enough, California has just been found in violation of Title IX of the civil rights laws. We will lose federal education funding unless the state complies with DOE’s conditions. I just left the House…

    The Biggest Loser

    By Kevin Kiley – June 20, 2025 Gavin Newsom just lost his lawsuit to remove the National Guard from LA. The 9th Circuit’s decision is unanimous. Even the Biden-appointed judge ruled against Newsom. As we predicted, Newsom’s decision to go after our Guard members rather than the rioters has ended in disgrace. In a Floor speech,…

    No “King”

    By Kevin Kiley – June 13, 2025 It’s official. Yesterday I joined President Trump at the White House, where he signed my legislation to reverse Newsom’s gas-car ban “once and for all.” Californians can now continue to drive the cars of their choice. In “King”-like fashion, Newsom tried to outlaw the vast majority of vehicles…

  • Off the Rails

    Off the Rails

    By Kevin Kiley – June 5, 2025 In February, I joined Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy to announce an investigation of High-Speed Rail. The findings are in: California is woefully “out-of-compliance” with federal requirements, there is “no viable path forward,” and $4 billion in funding will be terminated. This is the beginning of the end for the…

    Saving Face

    By Kevin Kiley – May 29, 2025 Two months ago, I wrote Newsom and the CIF about their “continued defiance of federal law in allowing biological males to compete in female athletics.” Yesterday, they finally took limited action, creating a separate “transgender” division so the girls division is preserved. This comes as President Trump is about to…

    California Commentary: The lamest excuse for the high-speed rail project

    By Jon Coupal – May 19, 2025 Opposition to California’s high-speed rail project keeps mounting. What began as a $10 billion bond measure to fund a rail project that would travel from Los Angeles to San Francisco has morphed into America’s most embarrassing boondoggle costing hundreds of billions of dollars. Throughout its tortured history, the…

  • Newsom Caves

    Newsom Caves

    By Kevin Kiley – May 16, 2025 This year, I’ve used every available tool to end Newsom’s disastrous policy of free Medi-Cal for all illegal immigrants. On Tuesday, things came to a head. In a speech on the House Floor, I told Newsom that the moment of reckoning had arrived. The next day, he backed down. Admitting…

  • Lawlessness and Accountability

    Lawlessness and Accountability

    By Kevin Kiley – April 15, 2025 California is now facing at least 10 federal investigations for civil rights violations and other unlawful activity, several of which I requested. You can see my Floor Speech describing all ten here. Long story short: years of utter lawlessness have finally caught up with Gavin Newsom. As Chair of…

    Toxic Results

    By Kevin Kiley – April 8, 2025 Bernie Sanders and AOC are targeting me with a rally in my district. While they’re in town, I’ve invited them to tour San Francisco and Oakland to see their “utopian” vision brought to reality. I’d also remind AOC what happened last time she and I had a debate on the…

  • Newsom’s Latest Scandal

    Newsom’s Latest Scandal

    By Kevin Kiley – March 14, 2025 Today Gavin Newsom made a stunning admission. Medi-Cal is insolvent. The cost of his policy of giving free coverage to every illegal immigrant in the state has ballooned to $9.5 billion, and he’s now asked for a $3.4 billion “loan” just to continue making payments for this month. This gives added…
