“Nothing about the Administration’s divisive lawsuit protects law enforcement. Nothing about their lawsuit reduces crime. But if California has to go to court to defend our decision not to help the Trump Administration rip families apart and deport Dreamers, then we’ll go to win. It’s unclear if Jeff Sessions has met Governor Brown and Attorney General Becerra — or seen the strength and resilience of our immigrant and LGBTQ communities. But it is clear that he has underestimated our commitment to our families, friends and neighbors who have been unfairly targeted by his deportation forces. Unlike Jeff Sessions, Californians don’t back down from a fight. Our advice: Go back to Washington.”
