"Attorney General Rob Bonta marked the milestone Tuesday in San Francisco, pointing to early court wins while acknowledging that many of the state's biggest legal fights remain unresolved. There have been 12 final rulings so far, with dozens of other cases still moving through the courts. According to the attorney general's office, judges have issued 35 injunctions or emergency rulings in California's favor, temporarily blocking federal actions while lawsuits continue."
""If he stops breaking the law, we'll stop suing. Plain and simple," Bonta said. "We can't abandon our principles, our California values, just because the President has put a target on our state." In a statement to ABC7 News, the White House slammed Bonta and Gov. Newsom for its litigation. "Instead of bragging about filing frivolous lawsuits against the Trump administration, the California attorney general should focus on addressing problems in his own state," said. Abigail Jackson, a White House spokesperson. The cases span a wide range of issues - including challenges to the cancellation of billions of dollars in federal health care research funding and federal immigration-related conditions tied to transportation grants."
