California churches sue Newsom for singing ban and one pastor may run for Governor


Three churches have filed a federal lawsuit against Governor Gavin Newsom seeking to overturn his ban on singing during religious services. The churches say their constitutional rights under the first and 14th amendments have been violated.



The suit was filed by Calvary Chapel of Ukiah, Calvary Chapel of Fort Bragg and River of Life Church in Oroville and seeks to block Newsom's ban on singing in houses of worship to stop the spread of coronavirus because claiming a double standard.

Singing is not banned in other locations. A lawyer also pointed out Newsom's support of protests.

Other churches are also standing up to Newsom. In response to the ban on indoor services in 30 counties,
Pastor Arthur Hodges, a Pentecostal minister in San Diego, told "Tucker Carlson Tonight" today that California churches are collectively finished with Newsom's continued restrictions on houses of worship.

Hodges said the governor and other politicians should recognize that worship plays a role in the health and well-being of people just as a hospital does.

California Pastor Greg Fairrington of the Destiny Christian Church ,outside Sacramento, said he plans to continue holding in-person services and if there is support, he plans to run for Governor.



nd maybe even challenge him in the polls.
