California Governor Gavin Newsom Pushes Back Against Trump's Immigration Tactics - Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - SEPTEMBER 20: California Governor Gavin Newsom says "There's an assertion that somehow there is exponential increase in assaults on officers, but they will not provide the data. They will not provide that information, all they have provided is misinformation and misdirection. One agency saying one thing, another agency saying something altogether different..." as he answers questions for the media standing next to California Assembly members who authored immigration bills that ban most law enforcement, including federal immigration agents, from covering their faces while conducting official business at Contreras High School on September 20, 2025 in Los Angeles, California. In a move to counter tactics under the Trump administration, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a series of bills shielding immigrants from aggressive federal enforcement. The legislation bans masked federal agents, restricts access to schools and hospitals without warrants, and mandates transparency in immigration operations.
