Original Note:
According to the Gun Violence Archive, so far in 2023 there have been 31 deaths in California from mass shootings versus 6 mass shooting deaths in Texas. Adjusted for population, that puts CA's per capita rate 297% higher than TX. Gov. Newsom did not source his claim. https://www.gunviolencearchive.org/reports/mass-shooting?page=1&sort=asc&order=State
