This decision was never voted on or approved by legislators, and when pressed about the details of the deal, Newsom refused to disclose them....

Like the oppressive Soviet regimes of the Cold War and their secret snitching, Oregon governor Kate Brown is encouraging citizens to call the police on people who not adhering to her arbitrary COVID decrees.
