California's Prop 50 adds five U.S. House seats favoring Democrats after GOP redistricting efforts in multiple states, signaling a national struggle over congressional maps, Newsom said.

  • On Tuesday, California Gov. Gavin Newsom said Democrats' sweeping victory and Proposition 50's approval, creating five favorable House seats, signal a new moment for the Democratic Party.

  • Amid the results, Gavin Newsom reiterated warnings about the threat President Donald Trump poses to democracy and said he would attend the COP30 climate summit in Brazil this week, 'standing in for my kids and grandkids, for common sense, for, you know, our economic future.
