Newsom pulls kids from summer camp with no mask requirement
LA TimesGavin Newsom, his wife, First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom, and their children wave during his inauguration on Jan. 7, 2019, in Sacramento California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office said Tuesday he pulled his children out of a summer day camp that did not require kids to wear masks, a violation of state policy that Newsom’s spokeswoman said he and his wife missed when reviewing communication from the camp. “The Newsoms were concerned to see unvaccinated children unmasked indoors at a camp their children began attending yesterday and after seeing this, removed the kids from the camp,” Erin Mellon said in an email. Her statements came after Reopen California Schools, a group that promotes full school reopening without masks, tweeted Monday it had obtained photos of one of Newsom’s sons at the camp. “We support this summer basketball camp’s approach of having each family determine their own masking situation,” the Reopen California Schools account tweeted.
