California Expected To Sue Trump Administration Over Emergency Declaration

Friday, February 15, 2019 | Sacramento, CA

Gov. Gavin Newsom and California Attorney General Xavier Becerra are expected to announce a suit against the Trump Administration over Trump's declaration of a national emergency to finance the border wall.

Newsom issued a statement ahead of his announcement.

"President Trump is manufacturing a crisis and declaring a made-up 'national emergency' in order to seize power and subvert the constitution," the statement read." This 'emergency' is a national disgrace, and the blame lays solely at the feet of the President. Meanwhile, he plans to shutdown and divert funds used by California law enforcement that run counter-narcotics operations and fight drug cartels to build his wall. Our message back to the White House is simple and clear: California will see you in court."

Watch the governor's announcement live here.
