“California has come too far and accomplished too much to surrender and accept his dystopian vision for America. That’s why we’re moving fast and investing in our legal defense.”

Meanwhile, state Senate Minority Leader Brian Jones, Republican, said the special session “is clearly just another political stunt” and a “desperate attempt to distract from significant Democratic losses in California on Tuesday — in State Senate, State Assembly, USA. House and on key ballot measures, including the defeat of Prop 5 and the landslide victory of Prop 36.”

“Californians have made it clear: affordability is their primary concern,” Jones said. “Yet even with the massive deficit he’s created, Governor Newsom wants to hand his attorney general a blank check to wage endless battles against the federal government — while our own state is on fire, so literally , as well as metaphorically”.

California, a sanctuary state for illegal immigrants, abortions and Transgender transition treatments for children could be targeted by the Trump administration, especially given Trump’s plan to deport illegal immigrants en masse.
