Gavin Newsom is finding himself in a bit of a pickle, all thanks to a fiery critique from none other than Halle Berry. The actress didn’t hold back at the New York Times’DealBook Summit when she called out the California governor for vetoing a state menopause health bill, pointing out that he won’t be in power forever—and maybe shouldn’t be eyeing the presidency, either. Talk about a spotlight moment!
In response, Newsom’s team has stepped up, emphasizing his admiration for Berry’s advocacy work and outlining plans to collaborate on the issue moving forward. They insisted that the veto wasn’t just a capricious decision; it was to avoid accidentally hiking healthcare costs for women and families already struggling. But wait, there’s more—Newsom later revealed that the menopause bill is already in the next year’s budget, raising eyebrows about timing.
It seems Halle’s words might have lit a fire under Newsom after all! Could this clash actually spark notable change in healthcare for menopause? As both sides navigate the fallout, one thing’s for sure: when Hollywood meets politics, the drama unfolds deliciously.
