"The group, Governors Safeguarding Democracy, is meant to serve as a mechanism for Democratic states to coordinate efforts to oppose the right-wing policies of President-elect Donald J. Trump."
"Donald Trump is going to bring people into his administration who are absolute loyalists to his cult of personality and not necessarily to the law," Mr. Pritzker said.
"The two Democratic governors and Ms. Spiegel spoke in broad strokes about the group's ambitions to coordinate resources across state lines to protect state courts, elections and laws against encroachment from what they expect to be a hostile federal government."
"Regardless of how effective the organization becomes, it is likely to give Mr. Pritzker and Mr. Polis a platform to speak on behalf of blue-state officials."
