Why was there an attempt to remove Gavin Newsom from office?
<|assistant|>
There was an attempt to remove Gavin Newsom from office in 2007 after he pushed for sanctuary city policies that blocked some federal immigration enforcement in the city. He was accused of violating the state’s supreme law, which forbids cities from enacting laws that conflict with the state or federal government. Ultimately, a recall initiative failed, allowing Newsom to remain in office.
