California's Democratic-controlled Assembly approved $50 million in funding to continue pushing back against President Donald Trump's immigration policies, setting aside resources for legal battles against the federal government and providing legal aid for immigrants facing deportation.
The legislative package, which now awaits Governor Gavin Newsom's signature, is the state's latest measure aimed at "Trump-proofing" California. It allocates $25 million to the state Department of Justice to litigate against federal policies and another $25 million for legal organizations assisting immigrants.
