During former President Donald Trump’s first term, California took on the role of the resistance state. Now, state leaders are gearing up for round two. Governor Gavin Newsom announced a special session will convene next month aimed at strengthening the state’s legal resources to fight back and protect civil rights, reproductive freedom, the environment and immigrants.

Marisa and Scott discuss those plans with the person who will be leading the legal fights: Attorney General Rob Bonta.
