Following the election results in favor of former President Trump, Democratic governors and attorneys general have expressed their intentions to resist the incoming administration's policies. President-elect Trump has already begun his transition back into the White House, appointing Susie Wiles as his chief of staff.
One of Trump's top priorities upon starting his term in January is the possibility of mass deportations, a move that has sparked concerns among Democratic leaders. New York Governor Kathy Hochul and Attorney General Letitia James have emphasized their commitment to protecting the rights and freedoms of New Yorkers, stating that they will not accept any agenda from Washington that undermines these values.
