This is a national emergency with California at its epicenter:
• Federal troops occupying Los Angeles: Trump deployed thousands without state approval — an unmistakable act of authoritarian overreach.
• An illegal war on Iran: President Trump bypassed Congress and escalated nuclear threats, now provoking global crisis.
• Cruel ICE raids and deaths in custody: Immigrants are being rounded up, detained in dangerous conditions, and some are dying.
California cannot be collateral damage in this authoritarian game.
You must act immediately:
→ Demand removal of all federal troops from LA
→ Refuse California Guard involvement in Trump’s illegal war
→ Block state cooperation with ICE raids
→ Call on Congress to stop the illegal war, hold Trump accountable, and restore war powers
→ Lead your fellow governors in a united front against these abuses
California deserves leadership — not compliance with authoritarian power grabs. Be that leader. Stand with your people.
