California Assembly Republican Leader James Gallagher, who represents areas including Butte, Glenn, Placer, Sutter, Tehama, and Yuba counties, has raised concerns over recent developments involving state political figures through a series of posts on his social media account.
On May 6, 2026, Gallagher commented on allegations involving the Democratic front runner for Governor: “Another scandal is likely to rock the Democratic front runner for Governor. Xavier should be held to answer for what he knew. It is hard to fathom that he knew nothing about his closest advisor funneling money to his wife through the campaign account.”
Three days later, on May 9, 2026, Gallagher posted criticism regarding government spending under Governor Gavin Newsom: “Gavin spending money on a worthy cause doesn’t mean it is spent well. In fact, we all know by now it means quite the opposite.”
Shortly after this post on the same day, Gallagher addressed concerns about Senate leadership in California: “Mike McGuire’s Senate is a dangerous and backward place where victims are denied justice and murderers and child rapists go free.”
Gallagher serves as California Assembly Republican Leader and provides constituent services such as assistance with state agencies and community resources. He also offers resources for public transportation and community support within his district (official website). As part of his legislative responsibilities, he represents communities across several northern California counties (district map).
