~ In response to President Donald Trump's executive order to eliminate the U.S. Department of Education, Governor Gavin Newsom issued a statement today expressing his strong opposition.

"This overreach needs to be rejected immediately by a co-equal branch of government. Or was Congress eliminated by this executive order, too?" Governor Newsom stated.

The governor's statement comes as a reaction to President Trump's recent decision to sign an executive order that would begin the process of dismantling the Department of Education. This move has sparked widespread concern and criticism from many political leaders and education advocates.

Governor Newsom, who has been a vocal advocate for education reform and investment in California's public schools, expressed his disappointment in the president's decision. He emphasized the importance of having a strong and independent Department of Education to ensure that all students have access to quality education.

This is not the first time Governor Newsom has spoken out against actions taken by the Trump administration. In fact, just last week he issued a statement on preserving the ban on large-capacity gun magazines, another controversial move made by President Trump.

In addition to addressing national issues, Governor Newsom has also been focused on improving California's state policies. In recent news, he celebrated the passage of Proposition 1, which aims to correct decades of neglect in the state's mental health system.

Furthermore, California continues to make strides in promoting sustainable transportation options with an increase in electric vehicle (EV) chargers across the state. According to recent reports, there are now 48% more EV chargers than gasoline nozzles in California, making it easier for residents to make environmentally-friendly choices when it comes to transportation.

In other news, Engaged California - a new deliberative democracy platform - has launched this week with over 6,000 people signing up to participate in discussions about important issues facing the state. The first use case will focus on recovery efforts after devastating fires in Los Angeles.

Governor Newsom's statement on President Trump's executive order serves as a reminder of the importance of a strong and independent government, and the need for collaboration between branches to ensure the best outcomes for all citizens.
