The Californer/10261150

SACRAMENTO — Governor Gavin Newsom issued the following statement on the ruling by a U.S. District Court to dismiss a federal lawsuit filed by the City of Huntington Beach in an effort to evade state housing laws and avoid accountability:

"What we need is housing. Instead, the City of Huntington Beach chose not only to evade responsibility and break the law, but also file a baseless lawsuit in federal court to delay the State's enforcement action. Thankfully, this path was a dead end.
