California Governor Gavin Newsom wants a firewall to defend Californians during Donald Trump’s second term, and he isn’t wasting time building it.
Once one of the president-elect’s most visible critics during his first term, Newsom announced a special session of the California legislature ahead of Trump’s inauguration. Newsom said the session would focus on shoring up protections for women, LGBTQ+ people and immigrants before Trump takes office.
“The freedoms we hold dear in California are under attack — and we won’t sit idle,” Newsom wrote. “We will do everything necessary to ensure Californians have the support and resources they need to thrive.”
