California Moves to 'Trump-Proof' Abortion Rights with $100M Legal Fund
Dec 7, 2024, 01:28 AM
In anticipation of Donald Trump's second term, California lawmakers are taking proactive steps to safeguard state policies and rights. A group of Democratic legislators has proposed amending the state's Constitution to guarantee access to abortion medications, mifepristona and misoprostol. Governor Gavin Newsom has called a special session of the state legislature to 'Trump-proof' California values, potentially allocating up to $100 million to fund legal battles against the incoming administration. This move has drawn criticism from within the state, with San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan expressing frustration over the focus on 'performative politics' rather than addressing everyday issues like crime and homelessness.
