据州共和党众议员卡尔·德马奥称，在州长加文·纽瑟姆签署一项法案后，加州猖獗的欺诈“重大问题”即将进一步恶化，他警告称，该法案将镇压调查诈骗者的人。
这项正式名称为“移民支持服务提供商隐私保护法”的新法律为移民支持服务提供商、员工和志愿者创建了隐私保护措施，包括屏蔽他们的地址，并对在社交媒体上发布他们照片的人处以罚款。德马奥告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，该法案相当于将调查性新闻定为犯罪，并致力于“压制公民记者，让使用纳税人资金的组织免受公众监督”。
“‘阻止尼克·雪莉法案’到底是做什么的？它基本上让公民记者记录纳税人资金欺诈行为并以网络视频形式发布到互联网上的行为变成非法，”他说。
纽瑟姆已于上周将该法案签署为法律，定于10月1日生效。德马奥告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，他和一个“公民自由保护联盟”已准备好提起诉讼，对该法律提出质疑。

“我们已经找到了原告，正在准备法律意见书，”他说，并补充道，“我们将在法官面前阻止这项法案只是时间问题。”
“我们希望，”他继续说道，“美国司法部将介入此案，因为这明显侵犯了我们的第一修正案权利。”
德马奥称，加州的欺诈丑闻让明尼苏达州的相关事件都显得“只是普通的政府管理不善”。
“如果您担心明尼苏达州的索马里日托中心没有儿童入园，不妨看看加州政府下属的非政府组织，它们领取纳税人资金，却没有提供任何承诺的公共服务，”他说。“它们声称向移民提供公共服务，但实际上，它们组织集会、收集选票、在竞选活动中支持候选人及 ballot measures（注：此处保留专有术语，标准译法为“全民公决提案”），是民主党党的延伸。”
德马奥表示，这场计划中的诉讼是在与司法部民权办公室讨论后发起的。

“我已经请求司法部民权办公室审查‘阻止尼克·雪莉法案’……看看他们能否采取任何措施介入，阻止这项法律的实施。我们一直在与司法部沟通，现在我们已经制定了在法庭上推翻这项违宪法律的行动计划，”他说。
德马奥直接对纽瑟姆说道：“加文·纽瑟姆，你又一次扮演了恶霸的角色，试图压制公民监督者，不让他们行使第一修正案权利，揭露你的欺诈行为，揭露你任由宝贵的纳税人资金被浪费的数十亿美元损失，而这一切都是因为你想要这些左翼非政府组织的支持，帮助你在政治上获益。”
德马奥表示，纽瑟姆和加州民主党占绝对多数的议会“制造了如此严重的纳税人资金欺诈滥用问题，显然这是故意为之”。
“你将被暴露为恶霸，”他对纽瑟姆说。“你将被暴露为欺诈团伙的头目。”

作为回应，纽瑟姆的发言人戴安娜·克罗夫茨-佩拉约告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，“这项法律与尼克·雪莉毫无关系”，而“真正的争议在于，‘让美国再次伟大’的共和党人要么在撒谎，编造虚假阴谋论，要么根本不知道如何阅读法案内容”。
克罗夫茨-佩拉约表示，该法案不会影响雪莉的新闻工作——纽瑟姆的办公室此前将雪莉的工作称为“诈骗”和“撒谎”——也不会掩盖欺诈行为。

California’s “monumental problem” with rampant fraud is about to get significantly worse, according to Republican state Assemblyman Carl DeMaio, after Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a bill that he warns will crack down on people investigating scammers.
Officially titled “Privacy for immigration support services providers,” the new law creates privacy protections for immigration support service providers, employees and volunteers, including shielding their addresses and imposing penalties on those who publish their images on social media. DeMaio told Fox News Digital the bill amounts to criminalizing investigative journalism and works to “silence citizen journalists and shield taxpayer-funded organizations from public scrutiny.”
“What does the Stop Nick Shirley Act do? It basically makes it illegal for a citizen journalist to document fraud of taxpayer money and post that on the internet in the form of an internet video,” he said.
Newsom signed the bill into law last week, and it is set to take effect Oct. 1. DeMaio told Fox News Digital that he and a “coalition of civil liberty protectors” are prepared to file a lawsuit challenging the law.
DEMS RIPPED FOR ‘STOP NICK SHIRLEY ACT’ THAT COULD ‘SHIELD’ FRAUD AND ABUSE IN CALIFORNIA

“We have a plaintiff and are putting together the legal briefs,” he said, adding, “It is a matter of time before we’re going to get before a judge to stop this act.”
“It is our hope,” he continued, “that the U.S. Department of Justice will file to intervene in that case, because this is an open-and-shut infringement on our First Amendment rights.”
DeMaio said California’s fraud scandal makes the Minnesota fraud look like “garden variety government mismanagement.”
“If you were worried about Somali daycare centers in Minnesota not having children in the daycare, take a look at California government NGOs receiving taxpayer funds and not having any sort of public services that they’re delivering,” he said. “They say they provide public services to immigrants when, in fact, they organize rallies, they harvest ballots, they endorse candidates and ballot measures during campaigns, and they are an extension of the Democrat Party.”
DeMaio said the planned lawsuit follows discussions with the Justice Department’s Office for Civil Rights.

“I have asked the U.S. Department of Justice Office of Civil Rights to look at the Stop Nick Shirley Act … to see if they can do anything to intervene to prevent the implementation of this law. We have been dialoguing with the Department of Justice, and now we have a game plan as to how we will proceed forward in the courts to overturn this unconstitutional law,” he said.
Addressing Newsom directly, DeMaio said, “Gavin Newsom, once again, you’re a bully trying to silence citizen watchdogs into not exercising their First Amendment rights and exposing your fraud, the billions of dollars that you’ve allowed to be wasted of precious taxpayer funds, all because you want the benefit of these left-wing NGOs to help you politically.”
DeMaio said Newsom and California’s Democratic supermajority “created such a monumental problem with fraud of taxpayer money being abused that it’s clear that it is intentional.”
“You’re going to be exposed as a bully,” he told Newsom. “You’re going to be exposed as the fraud ringleader.”

In response, Newsom spokesperson Diana Crofts-Pelayo told Fox News Digital that “this law has nothing to do with Nick Shirley” and that “the real controversy here is that MAGA Republicans are either lying to create up fake conspiracy theories, or none of them know how to read.”
Crofts-Pelayo said the law does not affect Shirley’s journalism, which Newsom’s office previously referred to as “grifting” and “lying,” and does not hide fraud.
