DeMaio Files FPPC Complaint Over Violations of Lobbying Laws in Gavin Newsom’s Redistricting Scheme

What: 

Assemblyman Carl DeMaio has filed a formal complaint with the California Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) alleging illegal “shadow lobbying” by Democrat consultants and organizations behind Prop 50’s redistricting scheme. 

When: 

Friday, August 29, 2025

Who:

CA State Assemblyman Carl DeMaio 

Why:

“Californians have the right to know who is attempting to buy influence with their elected state representatives–but in the case of Prop 50 redistricting legislation, the public has been deprived of that transparency. I’m calling on the FPPC to launch an immediate investigation to enforce our lobbying transparency laws and help get to the bottom of the mystery of ‘Who Drew The Maps’ that surrounds this corrupt redistricting scheme.” -CA State Asm. Carl DeMaio
