Blue States Unite to Challenge Trump's Policies
Democratic governors from several states, including California, Illinois, New York, and Massachusetts, are preparing legal and political strategies to counter potential federal actions under a new Trump administration. These governors aim to protect state policies on civil rights, reproductive freedom, climate action, and immigration. California's Governor Gavin Newsom plans a special legislative session to "Trump-proof" state laws, while Illinois' Governor JB Pritzker emphasizes safeguarding freedoms and rights. Similar initiatives are underway in New York and Massachusetts, with governors pledging to use all available tools to defend their states' values.
