He has shown a consistent pattern of insensitive statements and actions that are not befitting of a governor. This type of statement would be unacceptable from anyone, but is particularly appalling from the governor of one of the most diverse states in the nation. ### Next Article | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
