California Democrats Gear Up for Trump Era with Legal Fund and Affordability Focus

California Democrats are preparing for potential legal battles with the incoming Trump administration by proposing legislation to allocate $25 million for legal costs and $500,000 for immediate case preparation. The state aims to defend its interests on issues like immigration and environmental regulations. While some Democrats emphasize the need to focus on local economic concerns, Republicans criticize the move as divisive. The special legislative session will run alongside the regular session, with a focus on affordability and resistance to federal policies.
