California's Governor Gavin Newsom signed legislation to allocate $50 million for legal battles against the Trump administration and defend immigrants facing deportation. This funding includes $25 million for the state Department of Justice to address federal litigation and an additional $25 million for legal aid organizations. The state's legal confrontations stem from clashes with Trump over various policies, reflecting ongoing tensions. Newsom's actions come amidst California's ongoing recovery from wildfires, highlighting the state's financial needs and political disagreements, especially with Republican lawmakers labeling the funding as politically motivated.
Californians are being threatened by an out-of-control administration that doesn't care about the Constitution and thinks there are no limits to its power.
The move comes a day after the Democratic governor returned from Washington, where he met with Trump and members of Congress to try to secure federal disaster aid.
