“These two bills were passed at a special legislative session convened by Newsom after the election to prepare California to lead opposition to the second Trump administration.
“The news agency and the Democratic-controlled legislature have reached a deal to fund anti-Trump efforts, even if the Palisade Fire and Eaton Fire are still muffled in Los Angeles.”
A $25 million bill provides legal assistance to illegal foreigners; an additional $25 million is fighting other Trump policies in court.
President Joe Biden provided California with six months of funding before leaving the office.
