California:

One of the first things I said Wednesday morning was that I needed a statement from the Governor of New York (where I live) that the state would throw down to protect the people here and I’m so relieved that she and Letitia James wasted no time making such a statement.

"Reproductive rights, civil rights, immigration, gun safety, labor rights, LGBTQ rights and environmental justice, our team will do whatever we have to do to identify any possible threats," Hochul said.

She added that her administration would work in collaboration with AG James' office and other government officials to keep New Yorkers informed about their efforts to protect their freedoms.

"We faced this challenge before, and we use the rule of law to fight back. And we are prepared to fight back once again, because as the Attorney General of this great state, it is my job to protect and defend the rights of New Yorkers and the rule of law, and I will not shrink from that responsibility," James said.ALT
