SACRAMENTO, CA — Assemblymember Jesse Gabriel (D-Encino), author of the California Food Safety Act (AB 418) and the California School Food Safety Act (AB 2316), issued the following statement in response to Governor Gavin Newsom’s executive order on ultra-processed foods and food dyes:
“California has been leading the nation with groundbreaking new laws designed to protect our kids from dangerous food additives linked to cancer and neurobehavioral harms. California’s bipartisan, science-based approach is a roadmap for everyone who wants to protect American consumers. I applaud Governor Newsom for his bold leadership and look forward to working with his Administration on additional legislative efforts.”
