Gov. Gavin Newsom has called a special session in California's legislature to prepare legal defenses against President-elect Donald Trump, citing threats to civil rights and reproductive freedom.
Newsom emphasized that the freedoms held dear in California are under attack, stating, 'The special session appears to signal that the state will serve a similar role as Trump prepares for another office term.'
He articulated his urgency by saying, 'California is ready to fight. I just called an emergency special session to help bolster our legal resources and protect our state against any unlawful actions by the incoming Trump Administration.'
In his post on X, Newsom stressed that California refuses to turn back the clock, emphasizing, 'Whether it be our fundamental civil rights, reproductive freedom, or climate action, we won't sit idle.'
