California Governor Gavin Newsom has announced an emergency special session to enhance the state's legal defenses against potential actions from the incoming Trump administration. The focus of this special session will be on protecting civil rights, reproductive freedom, climate action, and immigrant families, as stated by Newsom's office in a press release.
Newsom emphasized California's readiness to fight for its values, stating, 'Whether it be our fundamental civil rights, reproductive freedom, or climate action – we refuse to turn back the clock and allow our laws to be attacked.'
