Halle Berry rips Gavin Newsom over vetoes on California menopause bills

Halle Berry condemned Governor Newsom's veto of the Menopause Care Equity Act, which aimed to mandate insurance coverage and provider education for menopause care in California.

  • On December 03, 2025, Halle Berry criticized Governor Gavin Newsom at the DealBook Summit, singling out his second veto of the Menopause Care Equity Act moments before Newsom spoke.
  • Governor Gavin Newsom vetoed the legislation in October, citing that the earlier measure and AB 432 were too far-reaching and raised health-care cost concerns for working families.
  • The bill would have expanded insurance coverage and mandated menopause training for doctors, while directing the National Institutes of Health to review research and submit a six-month strategic plan to Congress.
  • Berry's rebuke provoked audible reactions from the DealBook Summit audience and targeted Newsom's national prospects, while his spokesperson Izzy Gardon praised her advocacy and emphasized avoiding cost increases.
  • Given that one in six women leave the workforce due to menopausal symptoms, Halle Berry, founder of Respin, and Illinois's HRT mandate highlight growing policy momentum nationwide.
