Santa Clara County and San Francisco are facing significant challenges due to President Trump's second administration, which has introduced numerous executive actions threatening federal funding essential for public services. Attorneys from these counties report working tirelessly to counteract the changes, including filing lawsuits against the administration. They describe Trump's current term as markedly more aggressive than his first, referring to it as a 'constitutional blitzkrieg.' Despite the overwhelming number of executive orders, local officials remain committed to protecting their rights and are forming legal strategies to respond.
We're putting up one or two defenses a day, while Trump is ripping apart civil society and federal government on an hourly basis in ways that are blatantly unconstitutional.
The constitutional blitzkrieg with which this administration is engaging has been extremely challenging.
