California Governor Gavin Newsom has sharply criticized President Trump's tariff policies, labeling them as "reckless" and detrimental to the state's economy. In a recent interview, Newsom highlighted the adverse effects on dock workers, truckers, and small businesses, emphasizing that the damage inflicted by the ongoing trade war cannot be quickly or easily reversed.

To counteract these policies, Newsom has initiated a national advertising campaign, including a spot on Fox News, warning that the tariffs could lead to supply chain disruptions and increased costs for American families. He argues that such measures "punish families" and jeopardize the nation's economic standing.

In addition to public outreach, Newsom has taken legal action by filing a lawsuit challenging the federal government's authority to impose tariffs without congressional approval. He contends that these tariffs are causing economic chaos, including supply chain disruptions, rising consumer prices, and threats to jobs.

Despite these tensions, Newsom has shown a willingness to collaborate with the federal government on specific initiatives. He has proposed a \$7.5 billion federal tax credit program aimed at revitalizing the U.S. film industry, suggesting a partnership to bolster domestic production.
