Controversy and Opposition Surround Newsom's California Redistricting Plan

Conservative opponents, many arriving for a separate rally, dominated public comments at California legislative hearings opposing Gov. Newsom's redistricting plan, which aims to redraw congressional districts in favor of Democrats. Despite legal threats and opposition from Republicans fearing loss of seats, the Democratic supermajority is expected to approve the plan, with a final vote by voters scheduled for November. Supporters argue the redistricting is necessary to prevent election interference by Trump-aligned efforts.
